  • She. nothing will be impossible for you.
  • 00:00:00.867 --> 00:00:06.528
  • Look at the context of what jesus is saying.
  • 00:00:06.528 --> 00:00:08.596
  • They just try to heal a boy of demon possession.
  • 00:00:08.596 --> 00:00:10.865
  • Jesus is speaking about spiritual warfare.
  • 00:00:10.865 --> 00:00:13.268
  • You can cast out demons.
  • 00:00:13.268 --> 00:00:14.903
  • You can move mountains.
  • 00:00:14.903 --> 00:00:16.271
  • You can move anything out of the way.
  • 00:00:16.271 --> 00:00:17.705
  • If it's the father's will.
  • 00:00:17.705 --> 00:00:19.941
  • But all right, here's the big question.
  • 00:00:19.941 --> 00:00:21.810
  • I, i god spoke to me.
  • 00:00:21.810 --> 00:00:25.180
  • God gave me a vision.
  • 00:00:25.180 --> 00:00:26.681
  • Now, what do i do next?
  • 00:00:26.681 --> 00:00:29.384
  • Here's the hardest part.
  • 00:00:29.384 --> 00:00:30.318
  • You ready?
  • 00:00:30.318 --> 00:00:31.853
  • Habakkuk
  • 00:00:31.853 --> 00:00:33.555
  • Chapter two, verse two and three.
  • 00:00:33.555 --> 00:00:35.924
  • Then the lord said to me, write
  • 00:00:35.924 --> 00:00:38.326
  • My answer plainly on tablets.
  • 00:00:38.326 --> 00:00:41.362
  • So that a runner can carry the correct message to others.
  • 00:00:41.362 --> 00:00:45.200
  • So right there, when god speaks, write it down.
  • 00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:48.770
  • You don't want to mess it up.
  • 00:00:49.404 --> 00:00:50.405
  • You don't want to forget.
  • 00:00:50.405 --> 00:00:51.940
  • But here it is for the vision.
  • 00:00:51.940 --> 00:00:54.375
  • It's for a future time.
  • 00:00:54.375 --> 00:00:56.244
  • It describes the end, but it will be fulfilled.
  • 00:00:56.244 --> 00:01:00.281
  • God is already speaking to your doubt.
  • 00:01:00.281 --> 00:01:01.950
  • Right there. it seems so. coming.
  • 00:01:01.950 --> 00:01:05.787
  • But it's going to happen really soon.
  • 00:01:06.588 --> 00:01:09.224
  • Wait a minute.
  • 00:01:09.224 --> 00:01:09.657
  • Don't say that.
  • 00:01:09.657 --> 00:01:11.793
  • You know. you know what i would love?
  • 00:01:11.793 --> 00:01:12.760
  • I would love just to take this
  • 00:01:12.760 --> 00:01:13.828
  • Part of the verse out if we could.
  • 00:01:13.828 --> 00:01:15.697
  • You know what i mean?
  • 00:01:15.697 --> 00:01:16.564
  • Maybe, like amazon prime, the gift.
  • 00:01:16.564 --> 00:01:18.333
  • Like, i just can i can i get the blessing now?
  • 00:01:18.333 --> 00:01:20.802
  • Can i, can i have it happen today?
  • 00:01:20.802 --> 00:01:22.670
  • But no no no no.
  • 00:01:22.670 --> 00:01:23.571
  • It's going to seem slow in coming.
  • 00:01:23.571 --> 00:01:24.873
  • Wait patiently.
  • 00:01:24.873 --> 00:01:28.076
  • God already knew
  • 00:01:28.076 --> 00:01:28.843
  • That you would struggle with that.
  • 00:01:28.843 --> 00:01:32.113
  • God knows that.
  • 00:01:32.113 --> 00:01:32.780
  • I struggle with that.
  • 00:01:32.780 --> 00:01:35.016
  • I don't know if you're like me when you just get excited with
  • 00:01:35.016 --> 00:01:37.385
  • What the lord is doing. and just because i believe him.
  • 00:01:37.385 --> 00:01:39.554
  • I'm just.
  • 00:01:39.554 --> 00:01:40.188
  • I want to tell everybody.
  • 00:01:40.188 --> 00:01:42.891
  • And sometimes he allows me to do that.
  • 00:01:42.891 --> 00:01:44.492
  • And sometimes he's like, will you shut your mouth?
  • 00:01:44.492 --> 00:01:46.361
  • Because, listen,
  • 00:01:46.361 --> 00:01:48.296
  • Just because you heard from the lord, does it mean
  • 00:01:49.297 --> 00:01:51.132
  • That everybody else around you heard from the lord?
  • 00:01:51.132 --> 00:01:54.435
  • And so when you're speaking to everybody else
  • 00:01:54.435 --> 00:01:56.237
  • About what god is doing, guess what?
  • 00:01:56.237 --> 00:01:57.472
  • They're going to speak their opinions to you.
  • 00:01:57.472 --> 00:02:00.475
  • And you may be asking for some opinions.
  • 00:02:00.475 --> 00:02:02.544
  • You really don't want.
  • 00:02:02.544 --> 00:02:04.512
  • And they may plant seeds of doubt and frustration in you.
  • 00:02:04.512 --> 00:02:08.616
  • And you start to to lose the belief,
  • 00:02:08.616 --> 00:02:11.386
  • The faith of what god spoke over you.
  • 00:02:11.386 --> 00:02:15.190
  • God knows. listen.
  • 00:02:15.190 --> 00:02:16.658
  • It is for a future time.
  • 00:02:16.658 --> 00:02:18.893
  • It describes the end.
  • 00:02:18.893 --> 00:02:20.295
  • It will be fulfilled. it's
  • 00:02:20.295 --> 00:02:21.763
  • Going to seem slow and coming, but wait patiently. why?
  • 00:02:21.763 --> 00:02:25.166
  • Because it will surely take place.
  • 00:02:25.166 --> 00:02:29.971
  • That's a great point to say amen to.
  • 00:02:30.738 --> 00:02:33.508
  • What does a man mean? so be it.
  • 00:02:33.508 --> 00:02:35.743
  • There's something in your life right now you're waiting on.
  • 00:02:35.743 --> 00:02:38.012
  • So be it. god, i'm going to wait on you.
  • 00:02:38.012 --> 00:02:40.515
  • So be it.
  • 00:02:40.815 --> 00:02:41.749
  • God, i'm going to. i'm going to trust you.
  • 00:02:41.749 --> 00:02:43.918
  • Okay?
  • 00:02:43.918 --> 00:02:44.719
  • I'm going to trust you in my life.
  • 00:02:44.719 --> 00:02:47.388
  • Do me a favor.
  • 00:02:47.388 --> 00:02:48.623
  • This is somebody next to you and tell them to wait patiently.
  • 00:02:48.623 --> 00:02:53.361
  • Some of you are too kind.
  • 00:02:53.928 --> 00:02:55.196
  • Wait patiently.
  • 00:02:55.196 --> 00:02:56.097
  • Like. come on.
  • 00:02:56.097 --> 00:02:56.931
  • Wait patiently.
  • 00:02:56.931 --> 00:02:57.899
  • Like. tell them with authority.
  • 00:02:57.899 --> 00:03:00.602
  • Okay.
  • 00:03:00.602 --> 00:03:01.869
  • Let me just.
  • 00:03:01.869 --> 00:03:03.104
  • I'm okay. all right.
  • 00:03:03.104 --> 00:03:05.540
  • You just made an enemy right now.
  • 00:03:05.540 --> 00:03:07.508
  • I'm just letting you know, okay?
  • 00:03:07.508 --> 00:03:09.544
  • They no longer like you because you said that to them.
  • 00:03:09.544 --> 00:03:12.113
  • Why? we don't like that advice.
  • 00:03:12.113 --> 00:03:14.983
  • None of us like that advice. but here's the thing.
  • 00:03:14.983 --> 00:03:16.985
  • They didn't just say it to you.
  • 00:03:16.985 --> 00:03:18.386
  • I didn't just say to you.
  • 00:03:18.386 --> 00:03:19.921
  • It came.
  • 00:03:19.921 --> 00:03:22.023
  • It came from the word of god.
  • 00:03:22.023 --> 00:03:23.958
  • You know what god is telling you right now?
  • 00:03:23.958 --> 00:03:25.426
  • Wait patiently. don't get ahead of god.
  • 00:03:25.426 --> 00:03:28.563
  • Don't miss the calling.
  • 00:03:29.063 --> 00:03:29.998
  • Don't miss what he's doing in your life.
  • 00:03:29.998 --> 00:03:31.332
  • Don't mess it up and get frustrated
  • 00:03:31.332 --> 00:03:33.067
  • Because you're trying to get ahead of him.
  • 00:03:33.067 --> 00:03:34.569
  • He knows exactly what you need at the right time.
  • 00:03:34.569 --> 00:03:38.139
  • But if you're struggling right now
  • 00:03:38.906 --> 00:03:41.142
  • With patience,
  • 00:03:41.142 --> 00:03:43.411
  • Some of the hardest questions that i get asked as a pastor,
  • 00:03:43.411 --> 00:03:46.714
  • My answer is always this if you're going through
  • 00:03:47.682 --> 00:03:49.784
  • Something deep, a struggle and it hurts.
  • 00:03:49.784 --> 00:03:53.755
  • You know what the good news is out of this bible?
  • 00:03:54.722 --> 00:03:57.792
  • There are many others that feel the same way you do right now.
  • 00:03:57.792 --> 00:04:01.829
  • Have you ever read their stories when you're hurting?
  • 00:04:02.864 --> 00:04:06.034
  • So many times we try to go to people
  • 00:04:06.034 --> 00:04:07.669
  • To help us or to give us the answer that we need.
  • 00:04:07.669 --> 00:04:10.271
  • But if you go to the word of god,
  • 00:04:10.271 --> 00:04:11.673
  • You're going to see a lot of other people
  • 00:04:11.673 --> 00:04:12.974
  • That went through similar things
  • 00:04:12.974 --> 00:04:14.409
  • As you are going through
  • 00:04:14.409 --> 00:04:15.543
  • Right now,
  • 00:04:15.543 --> 00:04:16.544
  • But they still believed in god for a promise,
  • 00:04:16.544 --> 00:04:18.513
  • Even when they were hurting and waiting patiently.
  • 00:04:18.513 --> 00:04:21.949
  • Just a few examples of this is abraham and sarah.
  • 00:04:21.949 --> 00:04:24.852
  • They waited, what, 25 years?
  • 00:04:25.453 --> 00:04:28.823
  • 25 years for the son isaac,
  • 00:04:28.823 --> 00:04:31.359
  • To be born without joseph?
  • 00:04:31.359 --> 00:04:34.696
  • One of my favorite stories out of the bible with 13 years
  • 00:04:34.696 --> 00:04:37.165
  • Is step into the position that god had for him.
  • 00:04:37.165 --> 00:04:40.034
  • God gave him a dream and a vision.
  • 00:04:40.034 --> 00:04:41.703
  • But it took 13 years.
  • 00:04:41.703 --> 00:04:43.237
  • I mean, let me also say it like this 13 years of suffering,
  • 00:04:43.237 --> 00:04:46.841
  • 13 years of betrayal and being hurt.
  • 00:04:47.608 --> 00:04:50.878
  • 13 years of being in somebody else's house as a slave
  • 00:04:50.878 --> 00:04:54.482
  • And then being falsely accused,
  • 00:04:54.482 --> 00:04:56.351
  • 13 years of stepping into a prison.
  • 00:04:56.351 --> 00:05:01.589
  • And for some of you right now,
  • 00:05:02.190 --> 00:05:03.458
  • Maybe you're saying the same thing.
  • 00:05:03.458 --> 00:05:04.492
  • God, it feels like 13 years.
  • 00:05:04.492 --> 00:05:07.061
  • I mean, moving by faith that i'm in a prison right now.
  • 00:05:07.061 --> 00:05:09.630
  • But on the other side of the prison is a setup.
  • 00:05:09.630 --> 00:05:12.100
  • Maybe the prison is exactly where you need to be
  • 00:05:13.067 --> 00:05:16.003
  • To step in to the promise that has that god has for you,
  • 00:05:16.003 --> 00:05:19.006
  • Because joseph did it. know that it was in the prison.
  • 00:05:19.006 --> 00:05:21.943
  • That's where god wanted him to be.
  • 00:05:21.943 --> 00:05:23.945
  • That was his appointed time.
  • 00:05:23.945 --> 00:05:27.682
  • Are you complaining about the very environment
  • 00:05:27.682 --> 00:05:29.684
  • That god has placed you in to lead you into the promise?
  • 00:05:29.684 --> 00:05:34.856
  • 13 years
  • 00:05:35.123 --> 00:05:37.392
  • He has still the vision had an appointed time.
  • 00:05:37.392 --> 00:05:40.495
  • And so the lord spoke to me about this.
  • 00:05:40.495 --> 00:05:43.297
  • And here's our wrote down 13 years of pain
  • 00:05:43.297 --> 00:05:45.466
  • Doesn't change god's plan.
  • 00:05:45.466 --> 00:05:48.870
  • Maybe you can relate to that.
  • 00:05:48.870 --> 00:05:50.638
  • 20 years of pain doesn't change what god has for you.
  • 00:05:50.638 --> 00:05:54.342
  • 50 years of pain struggles
  • 00:05:54.342 --> 00:05:58.112
  • Still doesn't change with the lord has for your life.
  • 00:05:58.112 --> 00:06:01.916
  • And sometimes when god is speaking, it's not always.
  • 00:06:01.916 --> 00:06:04.419
  • And no,
  • 00:06:04.419 --> 00:06:05.353
  • But it's just a not right now
  • 00:06:05.987 --> 00:06:09.257
  • Because you need some time.
  • 00:06:09.857 --> 00:06:12.193
  • You need a mature.
  • 00:06:12.193 --> 00:06:13.961
  • You realize that
  • 00:06:13.961 --> 00:06:14.829
  • There were things that i prayed for
  • 00:06:14.829 --> 00:06:15.930
  • With the ministry years ago, that i thank god today.
  • 00:06:15.930 --> 00:06:18.232
  • He didn't place in my hands.
  • 00:06:18.232 --> 00:06:20.835
  • My wife can testify to that.
  • 00:06:20.835 --> 00:06:23.671
  • There were things
  • 00:06:23.671 --> 00:06:24.872
  • I thought i was ready for, but my character wasn't ready
  • 00:06:24.872 --> 00:06:27.475
  • At maturity.
  • 00:06:27.475 --> 00:06:28.075
  • Wasn't there experience?
  • 00:06:28.075 --> 00:06:30.178
  • Faith wasn't there.
  • 00:06:30.178 --> 00:06:31.212
  • God had to do something inside of me.
  • 00:06:31.212 --> 00:06:33.548
  • God is still doing something on the inside of me.
  • 00:06:33.548 --> 00:06:35.483
  • Guess what? he's doing it in you too. it's not a no.
  • 00:06:35.483 --> 00:06:37.985
  • It's just a
  • 00:06:37.985 --> 00:06:39.954
  • Maybe not right now.
  • 00:06:39.954 --> 00:06:42.290
  • Let me show you one more example.
  • 00:06:42.290 --> 00:06:43.424
  • I think it's very powerful is david.
  • 00:06:43.424 --> 00:06:46.694
  • You know, it's incredible.
  • 00:06:46.694 --> 00:06:47.361
  • But the story of david,
  • 00:06:47.361 --> 00:06:49.230
  • Don't miss samuel came to david.
  • 00:06:49.864 --> 00:06:53.167
  • David wasn't looking for samuel.
  • 00:06:53.801 --> 00:06:57.271
  • Have you noticed that about story?
  • 00:06:57.271 --> 00:06:59.006
  • David wasn't just praying.
  • 00:06:59.006 --> 00:07:00.341
  • God, i'm so tired of looking after sheep.
  • 00:07:00.341 --> 00:07:03.277
  • Can you make me king?
  • 00:07:03.277 --> 00:07:04.979
  • Can you bless me like that? no, no, no.
  • 00:07:04.979 --> 00:07:06.547
  • God spoke to samuel.
  • 00:07:06.547 --> 00:07:08.483
  • Samuel shows up for david.
  • 00:07:08.483 --> 00:07:10.418
  • It's just a regular day.
  • 00:07:10.418 --> 00:07:13.287
  • But you know what? the lord spoke to samuel.
  • 00:07:13.287 --> 00:07:15.690
  • First samuel chapter 16, verse 12.
  • 00:07:15.690 --> 00:07:17.291
  • The lord said to him, listen to this.
  • 00:07:17.291 --> 00:07:19.794
  • He's the one.
  • 00:07:19.794 --> 00:07:21.762
  • Anoint him.
  • 00:07:21.762 --> 00:07:24.298
  • He's the one.
  • 00:07:24.298 --> 00:07:26.167
  • Anoint him.
  • 00:07:26.167 --> 00:07:27.602
  • This is big.
  • 00:07:27.602 --> 00:07:28.936
  • It's big. okay.
  • 00:07:28.936 --> 00:07:30.571
  • Because it means when god has an anointing on your life,
  • 00:07:30.571 --> 00:07:34.775
  • You don't have to look for people.
  • 00:07:34.775 --> 00:07:36.410
  • God will send the people to you.
  • 00:07:36.410 --> 00:07:39.247
  • If you have a true anointing,
  • 00:07:39.247 --> 00:07:41.249
  • If god is really using you, you don't have to convince
  • 00:07:41.249 --> 00:07:44.051
  • Everybody else that you are anointed.
  • 00:07:44.051 --> 00:07:45.920
  • You don't have to tell
  • 00:07:46.387 --> 00:07:47.588
  • Them, hey, hey, god met me and is doing this in my life.
  • 00:07:47.588 --> 00:07:50.157
  • No no no.
  • 00:07:50.157 --> 00:07:50.958
  • You just do what you normally do.
  • 00:07:50.958 --> 00:07:52.260
  • God will send the right people to you with the oil.
  • 00:07:52.260 --> 00:07:55.229
  • Ready to pray.
  • 00:07:55.229 --> 00:07:57.565
  • Ready to bless. why?
  • 00:07:57.565 --> 00:08:00.234
  • Because god is in control, not you.
  • 00:08:00.234 --> 00:08:03.271
  • God is working on people's hearts, not you.
  • 00:08:03.271 --> 00:08:05.773
  • God is working on people's minds, not you.
  • 00:08:05.773 --> 00:08:08.276
  • Which means you can rest and do what you need to do
  • 00:08:08.276 --> 00:08:10.611
  • And trust god to the process.
  • 00:08:10.611 --> 00:08:14.549
  • You don't have to convince people that you're anointed,
  • 00:08:14.549 --> 00:08:17.685
  • But i think a lot of us would have struggled with this
  • 00:08:17.685 --> 00:08:19.687
  • Because here again, wait patiently.
  • 00:08:19.687 --> 00:08:22.490
  • Right.
  • 00:08:22.490 --> 00:08:23.624
  • What would you do if samuel came up to you and anointed?
  • 00:08:23.624 --> 00:08:25.626
  • You said you're the next king.
  • 00:08:25.626 --> 00:08:27.862
  • A lot of us would show up to the palace like, whoa,
  • 00:08:27.862 --> 00:08:30.097
  • What up, peasants? you know what i mean? like we're just.
  • 00:08:30.097 --> 00:08:32.366
  • I'm ready.
  • 00:08:32.366 --> 00:08:33.200
  • King saul, move.
  • 00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:34.669
  • You got skinny legs, right?
  • 00:08:34.669 --> 00:08:38.205
  • I'm having too much fun today.
  • 00:08:38.806 --> 00:08:39.740
  • I'm sorry. i'm excited. all right.
  • 00:08:39.740 --> 00:08:41.676
  • No. after being anointed,
  • 00:08:41.676 --> 00:08:44.879
  • He goes back to the sheep.
  • 00:08:44.879 --> 00:08:47.882
  • Your other.
  • 00:08:47.882 --> 00:08:49.850
  • He doesn't think so highly of himself.
  • 00:08:49.850 --> 00:08:51.986
  • He goes back to the sheep.
  • 00:08:51.986 --> 00:08:53.588
  • To the field.
  • 00:08:53.588 --> 00:08:54.255
  • Did he goes to goliath?
  • 00:08:54.255 --> 00:08:56.424
  • Then saul gets extremely jealous.
  • 00:08:56.424 --> 00:08:58.893
  • He runs for his life that he's praising god.
  • 00:08:58.893 --> 00:09:01.162
  • But hiding in the caves.
  • 00:09:01.162 --> 00:09:04.265
  • That's what the anointing.
  • 00:09:04.832 --> 00:09:05.833
  • And that's what the vision brought into its life.
  • 00:09:05.833 --> 00:09:07.535
  • And the promise
  • 00:09:07.535 --> 00:09:08.669
  • Would take 15 years for david to sit on the throne.
  • 00:09:08.669 --> 00:09:11.606
  • 15 years?
  • 00:09:11.906 --> 00:09:14.442
  • But guess what?
  • 00:09:14.442 --> 00:09:15.176
  • It's a promise that would last.
  • 00:09:15.176 --> 00:09:17.445
  • It was bigger than king david.
  • 00:09:17.445 --> 00:09:19.847
  • It's a genealogy that would lead to the lineage
  • 00:09:19.847 --> 00:09:22.950
  • Of the messiah, jesus christ and his kingdom would never end.
  • 00:09:22.950 --> 00:09:27.922
  • Let me show you this.
  • 00:09:28.422 --> 00:09:29.624
  • Listen to what the prophet isaiah said about the messiah
  • 00:09:29.624 --> 00:09:33.194
  • And isaiah chapter nine, verse seven.
  • 00:09:33.194 --> 00:09:34.962
  • His government and its peace will never end,
  • 00:09:34.962 --> 00:09:38.532
  • And he will rule with fairness and justice
  • 00:09:38.532 --> 00:09:41.302
  • From the throne of his ancestor david for all eternity.
  • 00:09:41.302 --> 00:09:45.773
  • And luke, chapter one, verse 32 and 33.
  • 00:09:46.641 --> 00:09:49.243
  • The angel gabriel told mary,
  • 00:09:49.243 --> 00:09:51.012
  • He will be very great talking about jesus christ,
  • 00:09:51.012 --> 00:09:54.048
  • And he will be called the son of the most high.
  • 00:09:54.048 --> 00:09:56.651
  • The lord god will give him the throne of his ancestor david,
  • 00:09:56.651 --> 00:10:00.221
  • And he will reign over israel, and his kingdom will never end.
  • 00:10:00.221 --> 00:10:05.359
  • Never end.
  • 00:10:05.660 --> 00:10:06.794
  • What god spoke of the david leads to jesus christ.
  • 00:10:06.794 --> 00:10:10.498
  • And let me tell you right now,
  • 00:10:10.498 --> 00:10:11.565
  • Jesus is coming back whether you're ready or not,
  • 00:10:11.565 --> 00:10:14.502
  • Whether you're excited or not.
  • 00:10:15.102 --> 00:10:17.638
  • God's going to come back like peekaboo.
  • 00:10:17.638 --> 00:10:19.140
  • I'm here like it's time.
  • 00:10:19.140 --> 00:10:21.342
  • I'm just trying to wake you all of this morning.
  • 00:10:21.342 --> 00:10:24.612
  • Oh. all right, so i wrote this down.
  • 00:10:24.612 --> 00:10:27.281
  • I'm gonna answer.
  • 00:10:27.281 --> 00:10:29.483
  • I'm here about this later.
  • 00:10:29.483 --> 00:10:32.653
  • I want to answer a question
  • 00:10:32.653 --> 00:10:35.189
  • I don't think i've ever answered before on this stage.
  • 00:10:35.189 --> 00:10:37.692
  • How did we get our name? authentic.
  • 00:10:37.692 --> 00:10:39.760
  • Okay.
  • 00:10:39.760 --> 00:10:40.795
  • Because some people walk in this place of, like.
  • 00:10:40.795 --> 00:10:42.029
  • I love the name. it describes everything about him.
  • 00:10:42.029 --> 00:10:44.465
  • And some people are highly offended
  • 00:10:44.465 --> 00:10:46.767
  • And they criticize the name, like, what do you mean?
  • 00:10:46.767 --> 00:10:48.436
  • You're the real church? okay.
  • 00:10:48.436 --> 00:10:50.938
  • I believe that god named this church many, many years ago.
  • 00:10:50.938 --> 00:10:54.141
  • And i want to tell you the story of that.
  • 00:10:54.141 --> 00:10:56.844
  • When i was in my early 20s, me and my wife,
  • 00:10:56.844 --> 00:10:59.313
  • We had this burden to reach a lost city for jesus.
  • 00:10:59.313 --> 00:11:03.184
  • And in this city where tons of casinos and bars
  • 00:11:03.184 --> 00:11:06.253
  • And strip clubs.
  • 00:11:06.253 --> 00:11:07.121
  • And so we just had this passion
  • 00:11:07.121 --> 00:11:08.856
  • And we started preaching with this small group of young adults
  • 00:11:08.856 --> 00:11:12.226
  • Just preaching.
  • 00:11:12.226 --> 00:11:12.960
  • Everybody got excited,
  • 00:11:12.960 --> 00:11:14.462
  • And then all of a sudden we started noticing,
  • 00:11:14.462 --> 00:11:16.163
  • Like the group just started to grow and grow and grow.
  • 00:11:16.163 --> 00:11:18.632
  • And so we had this little get together at our house and,
  • 00:11:18.632 --> 00:11:22.536
  • And it was supposed to be a little get together.
  • 00:11:22.536 --> 00:11:25.039
  • It wasn't for my wife
  • 00:11:25.039 --> 00:11:26.273
  • Hiding for like five minutes because she was claustrophobic,
  • 00:11:26.273 --> 00:11:28.709
  • Because like, so many people are in my house.
  • 00:11:28.709 --> 00:11:31.479
  • I'm like, where did you come from?
  • 00:11:31.479 --> 00:11:33.147
  • Why are you eating my spinach dip?
  • 00:11:33.147 --> 00:11:35.015
  • And there's just people everywhere.
  • 00:11:35.015 --> 00:11:37.818
  • And so i remember, like, we're talking one night,
  • 00:11:37.818 --> 00:11:39.920
  • We're talking about night.
  • 00:11:39.920 --> 00:11:41.021
  • And she looks at me and she says, you know, it's so,
  • 00:11:41.021 --> 00:11:44.492
  • Just so real.
  • 00:11:44.859 --> 00:11:46.994
  • What god is doing
  • 00:11:46.994 --> 00:11:49.063
  • That is so authentic.
  • 00:11:49.063 --> 00:11:52.233
  • And she looks at me and she says, that's the name.
  • 00:11:52.233 --> 00:11:55.469
  • That's the name.
  • 00:11:55.469 --> 00:11:56.771
  • So if you don't like the name, you can blame my wife.
  • 00:11:56.771 --> 00:11:59.140
  • Okay.
  • 00:11:59.140 --> 00:12:02.209
  • But it was.
  • 00:12:02.209 --> 00:12:02.877
  • And so what happened after that?
  • 00:12:02.877 --> 00:12:04.011
  • We started doing these, these crazy things.
  • 00:12:04.011 --> 00:12:05.846
  • And so all of a sudden, our little group
  • 00:12:05.846 --> 00:12:07.782
  • That was growing, we're like, you know what?
  • 00:12:07.782 --> 00:12:09.216
  • What if you launched something? and so we made a post.
  • 00:12:09.216 --> 00:12:11.819
  • You want to see the very first logo for authentic
  • 00:12:11.819 --> 00:12:15.156
  • 2012.
  • 00:12:15.389 --> 00:12:17.691
  • This was in louisiana.
  • 00:12:17.691 --> 00:12:19.393
  • It was it was not a church.
  • 00:12:19.393 --> 00:12:20.561
  • It was a evangelistic outreach.
  • 00:12:20.561 --> 00:12:21.929
  • We called it authentic ministries.
  • 00:12:21.929 --> 00:12:23.697
  • And i just posted that on facebook and instagram 2012.
  • 00:12:23.697 --> 00:12:27.768
  • And then we thought, all right,
  • 00:12:27.768 --> 00:12:28.702
  • Let's let's have a vision night, right?
  • 00:12:28.702 --> 00:12:30.337
  • So we did this bonfire together.
  • 00:12:30.337 --> 00:12:32.473
  • I'm going to show this picture. here's the bonfire.
  • 00:12:32.473 --> 00:12:34.809
  • And we did this bonfire.
  • 00:12:35.342 --> 00:12:36.710
  • And around 50 people i believe showed up that night.
  • 00:12:36.710 --> 00:12:40.147
  • Yeah, around 50 people.
  • 00:12:40.147 --> 00:12:43.117
  • And here's what's crazy.
  • 00:12:43.117 --> 00:12:44.051
  • That was in.
  • 00:12:44.051 --> 00:12:44.819
  • Yeah, 2012 as well.
  • 00:12:44.819 --> 00:12:46.253
  • Of course, it was november 2nd, 2012.
  • 00:12:46.253 --> 00:12:48.789
  • And i looked at the post and i posted this
  • 00:12:48.789 --> 00:12:52.560
  • And i said, those who are crazy enough to believe
  • 00:12:52.560 --> 00:12:55.095
  • They can change the world are usually the people that do.
  • 00:12:55.095 --> 00:12:58.999
  • I don't know if i ripped that off from somewhere else.
  • 00:12:58.999 --> 00:13:00.835
  • I can't tell you the truth on that.
  • 00:13:00.835 --> 00:13:02.236
  • Well, i can, i don't know,
  • 00:13:02.236 --> 00:13:03.804
  • But i started looking at that and i'm like, look,
  • 00:13:03.804 --> 00:13:06.240
  • The faith of this church has never stopped
  • 00:13:06.240 --> 00:13:09.443
  • The faith.
  • 00:13:09.743 --> 00:13:10.678
  • From the very beginning, what seems small
  • 00:13:10.678 --> 00:13:12.279
  • And even insignificant in those days has never stopped.
  • 00:13:12.279 --> 00:13:15.416
  • I believe that's what god is doing,
  • 00:13:15.416 --> 00:13:16.817
  • Something very special here.
  • 00:13:16.817 --> 00:13:18.619
  • Let me also share some of the things that we did
  • 00:13:18.619 --> 00:13:20.855
  • In the coming up years.
  • 00:13:20.855 --> 00:13:21.822
  • We organized a prayer march through the city.
  • 00:13:21.822 --> 00:13:24.925
  • By the way, we got
  • 00:13:25.359 --> 00:13:26.293
  • Denied to do that and we still did it.
  • 00:13:26.293 --> 00:13:29.296
  • As for, you know, say sorry later, whatever.
  • 00:13:29.296 --> 00:13:31.932
  • However, because i.
  • 00:13:31.932 --> 00:13:35.035
  • And then we broke rules.
  • 00:13:35.035 --> 00:13:36.003
  • I remember preaching on the college campus.
  • 00:13:36.003 --> 00:13:37.838
  • We would go into, like the lobby of the college,
  • 00:13:37.838 --> 00:13:40.641
  • And i'd start preaching
  • 00:13:40.641 --> 00:13:41.876
  • And some of the people would just sit down and people walk by
  • 00:13:41.876 --> 00:13:43.878
  • And they're like, what's going on over here?
  • 00:13:43.878 --> 00:13:45.312
  • And they would sit down and i would just preach.
  • 00:13:45.312 --> 00:13:47.248
  • And it became one of the largest groups on the campus.
  • 00:13:47.248 --> 00:13:49.950
  • I didn't even go to the school.
  • 00:13:49.950 --> 00:13:51.719
  • Pretty sure that was illegal as well, but we did it.
  • 00:13:51.719 --> 00:13:54.822
  • We prayed over people in walmart parking lots.
  • 00:13:54.822 --> 00:13:57.324
  • I remember
  • 00:13:57.324 --> 00:13:58.325
  • We did that thing where like, they're about
  • 00:13:58.325 --> 00:13:59.526
  • To pay for their groceries and we put money down to run,
  • 00:13:59.526 --> 00:14:01.695
  • And they always caught me every single time.
  • 00:14:01.695 --> 00:14:04.131
  • But like, we saw people cry in walmart parking lots.
  • 00:14:04.131 --> 00:14:06.767
  • And so we started
  • 00:14:06.767 --> 00:14:07.968
  • Setting up services next to bars and tattoo shops downtown.
  • 00:14:07.968 --> 00:14:10.905
  • It was amazing.
  • 00:14:10.905 --> 00:14:12.039
  • And we would we would pray over the homeless.
  • 00:14:12.039 --> 00:14:14.541
  • And so i'm gonna show you this.
  • 00:14:14.541 --> 00:14:16.443
  • This last event for tenant ministries was in 2014.
  • 00:14:16.443 --> 00:14:19.947
  • The best picture i have here,
  • 00:14:19.947 --> 00:14:21.882
  • That part.
  • 00:14:22.182 --> 00:14:23.083
  • We built a stage, actually.
  • 00:14:23.083 --> 00:14:25.352
  • No no, no.
  • 00:14:25.352 --> 00:14:25.953
  • We used to build a stage
  • 00:14:25.953 --> 00:14:26.921
  • Out of wood, but that stage was already there
  • 00:14:26.921 --> 00:14:28.122
  • Because that was known as the hub.
  • 00:14:28.122 --> 00:14:30.524
  • It was a homeless ministry.
  • 00:14:30.524 --> 00:14:31.992
  • It was right downtown.
  • 00:14:31.992 --> 00:14:33.494
  • Okay.
  • 00:14:33.494 --> 00:14:34.495
  • Again, next to the bars and and and everything.
  • 00:14:34.495 --> 00:14:36.397
  • And we decided to bring three churches together.
  • 00:14:36.397 --> 00:14:40.334
  • And we did this thing, and we preach the gospel.
  • 00:14:40.334 --> 00:14:42.503
  • And and so what you're seeing there is a church crowd.
  • 00:14:42.503 --> 00:14:44.972
  • Church crowds, plus homeless people worshiping jesus
  • 00:14:44.972 --> 00:14:48.742
  • Together.
  • 00:14:48.742 --> 00:14:52.179
  • Everything about it was so different.
  • 00:14:52.179 --> 00:14:55.316
  • It was so supernatural.
  • 00:14:55.316 --> 00:14:57.885
  • It was real.
  • 00:14:57.885 --> 00:15:00.387
  • And i always knew when and when it ended.
  • 00:15:00.387 --> 00:15:02.323
  • I always knew that god was going
  • 00:15:02.323 --> 00:15:03.824
  • To bring it back in a new way one day.
  • 00:15:03.824 --> 00:15:06.126
  • I just didn't know how.
  • 00:15:06.126 --> 00:15:07.294
  • Habakkuk chapter two, verse three.
  • 00:15:08.062 --> 00:15:10.631
  • Wait patiently, for it will surely take place.
  • 00:15:10.631 --> 00:15:14.068
  • Every god vision takes time to build.
  • 00:15:14.068 --> 00:15:17.171
  • Let me also say this though, okay, out of all the stories,
  • 00:15:17.171 --> 00:15:19.974
  • The incredible stories we just went over,
  • 00:15:19.974 --> 00:15:21.408
  • Not one of them had perfect faith,
  • 00:15:21.408 --> 00:15:24.011
  • But they did have real faith.
  • 00:15:24.011 --> 00:15:25.245
  • What do i mean by that?
  • 00:15:25.245 --> 00:15:26.380
  • Abraham, if you read the story, he lied a couple times.
  • 00:15:26.380 --> 00:15:29.216
  • Sarah laughed at god's promise.
  • 00:15:29.216 --> 00:15:31.151
  • Joseph struggled.
  • 00:15:31.151 --> 00:15:32.386
  • David cried out to god in caves, but god still made a way.
  • 00:15:32.386 --> 00:15:36.523
  • So my last point here it is faith doesn't
  • 00:15:36.523 --> 00:15:40.427
  • Have to be perfect.
  • 00:15:40.427 --> 00:15:41.362
  • It just needs to be authentic.
  • 00:15:41.362 --> 00:15:44.198
  • It needs to be real.
  • 00:15:44.198 --> 00:15:46.333
  • I believe the way we overcome doubt
  • 00:15:46.333 --> 00:15:49.269
  • Is by looking at the story of mark chapter nine.
  • 00:15:49.269 --> 00:15:52.606
  • In matthew chapter 17.
  • 00:15:52.606 --> 00:15:54.008
  • Very quickly, i'm going to give you
  • 00:15:54.008 --> 00:15:54.942
  • An overview of the story here.
  • 00:15:54.942 --> 00:15:56.610
  • There was a father desperate for jesus
  • 00:15:56.610 --> 00:15:59.480
  • To heal his son, who was demon possessed,
  • 00:15:59.480 --> 00:16:02.850
  • And he already went to the disciples.
  • 00:16:03.584 --> 00:16:05.119
  • But the disciples couldn't do it because
  • 00:16:05.119 --> 00:16:06.720
  • Jesus was on a mountaintop with peter, james, and john.
  • 00:16:06.720 --> 00:16:10.491
  • And so when the father sees, okay, jesus has come back.
  • 00:16:10.491 --> 00:16:13.627
  • He goes to jesus says, jesus, please help me.
  • 00:16:13.627 --> 00:16:17.197
  • Help me, because your disciples couldn't do it.
  • 00:16:18.132 --> 00:16:21.702
  • And jesus asked him, how long has this
  • 00:16:22.536 --> 00:16:24.004
  • Been happening?
  • 00:16:24.004 --> 00:16:24.905
  • And replies, since he was a little boy,
  • 00:16:24.905 --> 00:16:26.573
  • Can you hear the pain in the father's
  • 00:16:26.573 --> 00:16:29.076
  • Voice there?
  • 00:16:29.076 --> 00:16:31.045
  • He said, the spirit often throws him into the fire,
  • 00:16:31.045 --> 00:16:33.180
  • Into the water, trying to kill him.
  • 00:16:33.180 --> 00:16:35.849
  • And the father said, have mercy on us and help us if you can.
  • 00:16:35.849 --> 00:16:39.086
  • You know what jesus said.
  • 00:16:39.086 --> 00:16:40.087
  • What do you mean?
  • 00:16:40.087 --> 00:16:40.788
  • If i cry?
  • 00:16:40.788 --> 00:16:43.991
  • Have you said that to the lord?
  • 00:16:43.991 --> 00:16:45.292
  • Maybe jesus is saying that to you right now.
  • 00:16:46.193 --> 00:16:47.828
  • What do you mean?
  • 00:16:47.828 --> 00:16:48.495
  • If i can heal your marriage,
  • 00:16:48.495 --> 00:16:51.365
  • Will you mean if i can provide for you through this scary time?
  • 00:16:51.365 --> 00:16:54.134
  • What do you mean?
  • 00:16:54.134 --> 00:16:55.769
  • If i can heal your broken heart?
  • 00:16:55.769 --> 00:16:58.839
  • What do you mean?
  • 00:16:59.273 --> 00:16:59.840
  • If i can, then jesus.
  • 00:16:59.840 --> 00:17:02.042
  • He said this and this.
  • 00:17:02.042 --> 00:17:02.910
  • What love is that anything is possible
  • 00:17:02.910 --> 00:17:06.847
  • If a person believes.
  • 00:17:07.347 --> 00:17:10.184
  • And the father cried out, i do believe, but help my unbelief.
  • 00:17:10.184 --> 00:17:16.056
  • One of the realest moments
  • 00:17:16.056 --> 00:17:17.825
  • Out of the bible in the new testament with jesus, i believe.
  • 00:17:17.825 --> 00:17:21.829
  • But help me
  • 00:17:21.829 --> 00:17:22.963
  • Because there's still some areas that i don't believe.
  • 00:17:22.963 --> 00:17:25.866
  • There's still some areas i don't know.
  • 00:17:25.866 --> 00:17:27.334
  • You know what jesus said? jesus said, i can work with that.
  • 00:17:27.334 --> 00:17:30.904
  • You don't need perfect faith,
  • 00:17:31.538 --> 00:17:34.808
  • But i can work
  • 00:17:34.808 --> 00:17:36.643
  • With a little bit of faith because in matthew chapter 17,
  • 00:17:36.643 --> 00:17:39.480
  • The disciples come up to jesus and they ask,
  • 00:17:39.480 --> 00:17:41.982
  • How come we couldn't cast out the demon?
  • 00:17:41.982 --> 00:17:45.385
  • And here's what jesus said.
  • 00:17:45.385 --> 00:17:46.353
  • He said, because of your unbelief.
  • 00:17:46.353 --> 00:17:47.588
  • Verse 19 and 20
  • 00:17:47.588 --> 00:17:50.023
  • For assuredly, i say to you, now listen to this.
  • 00:17:50.023 --> 00:17:52.159
  • If you have the faith the size of a mustard seed,
  • 00:17:52.159 --> 00:17:57.764
  • You will say to this mountain, move from here to there,
  • 00:17:57.764 --> 00:18:00.267
  • And it will move, for nothing will be impossible for you.
  • 00:18:00.267 --> 00:18:03.804
  • Look at the context of what jesus is saying.
  • 00:18:03.804 --> 00:18:05.873
  • They just tried to heal a boy of demon possession.
  • 00:18:05.873 --> 00:18:08.142
  • Jesus is speaking about spiritual warfare.
  • 00:18:08.142 --> 00:18:10.544
  • You can cast out demons.
  • 00:18:10.544 --> 00:18:12.179
  • You can move mountains. you can move anything
  • 00:18:12.179 --> 00:18:14.381
  • Out of the way if it's the father's will.
  • 00:18:14.381 --> 00:18:17.217
  • All right, guys, that's all the time we have for today.
  • 00:18:17.217 --> 00:18:19.620
  • But i pray that today's message bless your life.
  • 00:18:19.620 --> 00:18:23.357
  • There is a reason you heard this word today.
  • 00:18:23.357 --> 00:18:25.893
  • It's not by mistake.
  • 00:18:25.893 --> 00:18:27.361
  • You're here for a reason.
  • 00:18:27.361 --> 00:18:28.662
  • And god has a plan for you.
  • 00:18:28.662 --> 00:18:31.265
  • And listen, if you love this church
  • 00:18:31.265 --> 00:18:33.433
  • And thinking about giving to this church, all you have to do
  • 00:18:33.433 --> 00:18:36.336
  • Is visit our website at bobbie chandler ministries.com.
  • 00:18:36.336 --> 00:18:40.240
  • And it's very easy to give.
  • 00:18:40.240 --> 00:18:41.742
  • And once you give, listen,
  • 00:18:41.742 --> 00:18:42.976
  • You're helping change lives because of your faithful giving.
  • 00:18:42.976 --> 00:18:47.314
  • We're able to reach not only the nation, but the world.
  • 00:18:47.314 --> 00:18:51.018
  • We're bringing the gospel of jesus christ
  • 00:18:51.018 --> 00:18:53.453
  • Into everyone's home as much as we can,
  • 00:18:53.453 --> 00:18:56.924
  • So that they know the love of god and listen.
  • 00:18:56.924 --> 00:19:00.360
  • If you want to hear more sermons as well.
  • 00:19:00.360 --> 00:19:01.962
  • Don't forget you can join us live every sunday,
  • 00:19:01.962 --> 00:19:04.965
  • 815, 10:00 and 1145.
  • 00:19:04.965 --> 00:19:08.168
  • So thank you for watching today.
  • 00:19:08.168 --> 00:19:10.504
  • And i can't wait to see you again very soon.
  • 00:19:10.504 --> 00:19:13.507
  • All right.
  • 00:19:13.507 --> 00:19:14.575
  • Before you go, i got one more announcement to make.
  • 00:19:14.575 --> 00:19:16.043
  • And this one's a big one.
  • 00:19:16.043 --> 00:19:17.211
  • Okay.
  • 00:19:17.211 --> 00:19:17.578
  • This year
  • 00:19:17.578 --> 00:19:18.345
  • We held our very
  • 00:19:18.345 --> 00:19:19.413
  • First awaking conference in hickory, north carolina
  • 00:19:19.413 --> 00:19:22.683
  • For authentic church.
  • 00:19:22.683 --> 00:19:23.917
  • And we saw
  • 00:19:23.917 --> 00:19:25.085
  • People come out from everywhere, from all over the nation
  • 00:19:25.085 --> 00:19:28.922
  • And even outside of the country
  • 00:19:28.922 --> 00:19:30.624
  • To experience what god is doing here.
  • 00:19:30.624 --> 00:19:32.893
  • So we're doing it again in 2026, from june 4th to june 7th.
  • 00:19:32.893 --> 00:19:38.265
  • We would love for you to plan and be here with us.
  • 00:19:38.265 --> 00:19:41.134
  • And if you want to look into more details
  • 00:19:41.134 --> 00:19:43.503
  • Over the conference,
  • 00:19:43.503 --> 00:19:44.471
  • All you have to do is click the link below.
  • 00:19:44.471 --> 00:19:46.240
  • In fact, here's a recap video to show you what all god did.
  • 00:19:46.240 --> 00:20:14.134
  • And the
  • 00:20:14.368 --> 00:20:15.168
  • Reason i even bring it up tonight
  • 00:20:15.168 --> 00:20:18.138
  • Is because when it comes to you knowing jesus, the man,
  • 00:20:18.138 --> 00:20:22.876
  • The gospel message is all about
  • 00:20:22.876 --> 00:20:25.846
  • Your understanding of the message about the man
  • 00:20:25.846 --> 00:20:30.117
  • Who will inform your methods of getting to know the man.
  • 00:20:30.117 --> 00:20:59.012
  • See? this.
  • 00:20:59.313 --> 00:21:04.418
  • This job doesn't work out for me.
  • 00:21:04.418 --> 00:21:06.553
  • What if i move my life by faith and it all just
  • 00:21:06.553 --> 00:21:10.457
  • Crumbles to the ground? what if it works?
  • 00:21:10.457 --> 00:21:13.193
  • What if god shows up and changes your life forever?
  • 00:21:13.193 --> 00:21:16.129
  • But i would rather move by faith
  • 00:21:16.129 --> 00:21:17.931
  • And even fail and fail and fail and know that i follow god.
  • 00:21:17.931 --> 00:21:21.802
  • And i ended up exactly where i needed to be.
  • 00:21:21.802 --> 00:21:40.854
  • And. you know what?
  • 00:21:41.321 --> 00:21:55.302
  • Today is
  • 00:21:55.302 --> 00:21:56.937
  • Pentecost sunday.
  • 00:21:56.937 --> 00:22:00.107
  • Pentecost sunday.
  • 00:22:00.540 --> 00:22:03.910
  • We do.
  • 00:22:04.111 --> 00:22:05.779
  • You better
  • 00:22:05.779 --> 00:22:07.013
  • Not ask a holy ghost preacher to preach on pentecost sunday.
  • 00:22:07.013 --> 00:22:09.916
  • I came here to remind you
  • 00:22:10.484 --> 00:22:12.252
  • You need the holy spirit.
  • 00:22:12.252 --> 00:22:12.252
