Says he likes to play in the water,
00:06:22.829 --> 00:06:23.463
The water, names him,
00:06:23.529 --> 00:06:24.063
Names him, calls him leviathan.
00:06:24.130 --> 00:06:25.131
Calls him leviathan. maybe they can throw that
00:06:25.198 --> 00:06:25.798
Maybe they can throw that scripture up.
00:06:25.865 --> 00:06:26.666
Scripture up. and it says that's where
00:06:26.732 --> 00:06:28.234

In the water. and so, this spirit
00:06:37.910 --> 00:06:40.847
And so, this spirit is one that the church
00:06:40.913 --> 00:06:42.315
Is one that the church deals with.
00:06:42.381 --> 00:06:43.816

Have to deal with. the bible says pride
00:06:48.688 --> 00:06:49.789

In others. and i'm not preaching

And i'm not preaching to you today only,
00:07:03.135 --> 00:07:06.005
To you today only, i'm preaching to me
00:07:06.072 --> 00:07:08.107
I'm preaching to me that this is something
00:07:08.174 --> 00:07:09.175
That this is something we must be aware of,
00:07:09.242 --> 00:07:10.510
We must be aware of, this is something
00:07:10.576 --> 00:07:11.410

00:07:15.014 --> 00:07:15.781
Your marriage, this will ruin your family,
00:07:15.848 --> 00:07:17.917
This will ruin your family, this will ruin your success,

This will ruin your success, this will ruin your vision,
00:07:20.052 --> 00:07:22.054
This will ruin your vision, this will wipe you out.
00:07:22.121 --> 00:07:23.856
This will wipe you out. this is a big deal.

This is a big deal. when he calls it a king,
00:07:24.857 --> 00:07:26.225

The moving of the holy spirit. because you're anointed
00:07:36.569 --> 00:07:38.771
Because you're anointed and the spirit is moving,
00:07:38.838 --> 00:07:40.206
And the spirit is moving, that does not
00:07:40.273 --> 00:07:41.040
That does not mean that this spirit --
00:07:41.107 --> 00:07:43.042

00:07:43.109 --> 00:07:43.976

That leviathan has a grip in your life is when
00:07:51.117 --> 00:07:52.718
In your life is when you no longer feel
00:07:52.785 --> 00:07:54.320

The need to pray. and it's alright,
00:07:57.089 --> 00:07:58.291
And it's alright, because god sent me
00:07:58.357 --> 00:07:59.659

In his mouth. i can't do it,
00:08:05.464 --> 00:08:06.065

He will resist prayer. but pride says,
00:08:20.513 --> 00:08:22.214

00:08:22.281 --> 00:08:23.616
"i don't make supplication, i don't feel the need to,
00:08:23.683 --> 00:08:24.984
I don't feel the need to, i don't need the help,
00:08:25.051 --> 00:08:26.218
I don't need the help, i can handle my own problems."
00:08:26.285 --> 00:08:28.287
I can handle my own problems." second question,
00:08:28.354 --> 00:08:30.389
Second question, he said, number one,
00:08:30.456 --> 00:08:31.958
He said, number one, "will he offer supplication?"
00:08:32.024 --> 00:08:33.326
"will he offer supplication?" the answer is no.
00:08:33.392 --> 00:08:34.293
The answer is no. notice the second

00:08:38.631 --> 00:08:42.368
You can't see it on the surface. but the scripture said --
00:08:42.435 --> 00:08:43.235
But the scripture said -- he asked,
00:08:43.302 --> 00:08:44.303
He asked, "will he speak soft words?"
00:08:44.370 --> 00:08:47.707
"will he speak soft words?" in other words,
00:08:47.773 --> 00:08:49.575
In other words, one of the ways you can tell if
00:08:49.642 --> 00:08:51.577
One of the ways you can tell if leviathan is manifesting in your
00:08:51.644 --> 00:08:53.446

Kind words, gentle words. you can speak the truth in love,
00:09:07.126 --> 00:09:09.261
You can speak the truth in love, the bible said.
00:09:09.328 --> 00:09:10.796
The bible said. but proud people think that they

Have a right to be harsh, and mean, and angry,
00:09:15.468 --> 00:09:18.070

The lust of the flesh, and the pride of life.
00:10:55.701 --> 00:10:59.472
And the pride of life. and so, what these spirits do
00:10:59.538 --> 00:11:01.273
And so, what these spirits do is they gather around him
00:11:01.340 --> 00:11:04.009

Weak little gospel we've been preaching
00:12:18.517 --> 00:12:19.251
We've been preaching that makes people think
00:12:19.318 --> 00:12:20.519
That makes people think that they can be rebellious,
00:12:20.586 --> 00:12:23.289
That they can be rebellious, hard hearted, the wind,
00:12:23.355 --> 00:12:26.125
Hard hearted, the wind, the move, the breath of god
00:12:26.192 --> 00:12:27.626
The move, the breath of god can't even get to you,
00:12:27.693 --> 00:12:29.962
Can't even get to you, no prayer, harsh words,
00:12:30.029 --> 00:12:32.665
No prayer, harsh words, cussing people out,
00:12:32.731 --> 00:12:33.966
Cussing people out, saying whatever you've --
00:12:34.033 --> 00:12:35.301
Saying whatever you've -- come to your mind,
00:12:35.367 --> 00:12:37.336
Come to your mind, and then just be alright
00:12:37.403 --> 00:12:38.904
And then just be alright with the lord.
00:12:38.971 --> 00:12:40.639
With the lord. that is not what
00:12:40.706 --> 00:12:41.473
That is not what this book teaches.
00:12:41.540 --> 00:12:44.176
This book teaches. we need to get in
00:12:44.243 --> 00:12:44.810
We need to get in the altars,
00:12:44.877 --> 00:12:45.945
The altars, and we need to say,
00:12:46.011 --> 00:12:46.745
And we need to say, "take the hook
00:12:46.812 --> 00:12:47.880
"take the hook and get this junk out of me.
00:12:47.947 --> 00:12:49.648
And get this junk out of me. i wanna be humble,
00:12:49.715 --> 00:12:50.850
I wanna be humble, i want to have the spirit
00:12:50.916 --> 00:12:52.318
I want to have the spirit that you had, jesus."
00:12:52.384 --> 00:12:53.819
That you had, jesus." [applause]
00:12:53.886 --> 00:13:01.727
[applause] how long, how long
00:13:01.794 --> 00:13:02.528
How long, how long are we gonna go?
00:13:02.595 --> 00:13:04.930
Are we gonna go? life is short,
00:13:04.997 --> 00:13:05.464
Life is short, life is going by.
00:13:05.531 --> 00:13:08.601
Life is going by. pride won't let us
00:13:08.667 --> 00:13:10.002
Pride won't let us even love people that
00:13:10.069 --> 00:13:12.071
Even love people that we're supposed to love.
00:13:12.137 --> 00:13:16.642
We're supposed to love. verse 4, he asked
00:13:16.709 --> 00:13:18.844
Verse 4, he asked one last question.
00:13:18.911 --> 00:13:21.213
One last question. he says, "will thou
00:13:21.280 --> 00:13:23.415
He says, "will thou take him for a servant?"
00:13:23.482 --> 00:13:26.018
Take him for a servant?" and the answer's no.
00:13:26.085 --> 00:13:28.320
And the answer's no. pride will cause you
00:13:28.387 --> 00:13:29.288
Pride will cause you to have a difficult
00:13:29.355 --> 00:13:30.589
To have a difficult time serving people.
00:13:30.656 --> 00:13:33.559
Time serving people. you will not want
00:13:33.626 --> 00:13:34.393
You will not want to serve people
00:13:34.460 --> 00:13:36.295
To serve people when pride gets
00:13:36.362 --> 00:13:37.029
When pride gets a hold of you,
00:13:37.096 --> 00:13:37.796
A hold of you, you wanna be served.
00:13:37.863 --> 00:13:39.164
You wanna be served. but jesus was a servant.
00:13:39.231 --> 00:13:42.701
But jesus was a servant. [applause]
00:13:42.768 --> 00:13:45.671

To church and, you know, whatever."
00:13:47.873 --> 00:13:49.408
You know, whatever." serving is a position
00:13:49.475 --> 00:13:51.543
Serving is a position of humility.
00:13:51.610 --> 00:13:53.679
Of humility. leviathan doesn't
00:13:53.746 --> 00:13:54.747
Leviathan doesn't want you to serve.
00:13:54.813 --> 00:13:57.216
Want you to serve. bible said,
00:13:57.283 --> 00:13:57.683
Bible said, "after he had eaten dinner,
00:13:57.750 --> 00:14:00.853
"after he had eaten dinner, jesus arose from
00:14:00.920 --> 00:14:03.455
Jesus arose from the table after he ate."
00:14:03.522 --> 00:14:07.393
The table after he ate." it says that,
00:14:07.459 --> 00:14:08.227
It says that, it's all in one sentence.
00:14:08.294 --> 00:14:09.261
It's all in one sentence. "after he ate,
00:14:09.328 --> 00:14:11.030
"after he ate, he arose from the table."
00:14:11.096 --> 00:14:15.534
He arose from the table." and he took a basin,
00:14:15.601 --> 00:14:21.640
And he took a basin, bring it over for me,
00:14:21.707 --> 00:14:22.408
Bring it over for me, demetrius, thank you.
00:14:22.474 --> 00:14:25.844
Demetrius, thank you. and he took a towel,
00:14:25.911 --> 00:14:30.149
And he took a towel, they didn't know
00:14:30.215 --> 00:14:30.516
They didn't know what he was doing,
00:14:30.582 --> 00:14:32.918
What he was doing, but he's about to
00:14:32.985 --> 00:14:33.786
But he's about to clean the water
00:14:33.852 --> 00:14:35.354
Clean the water and make sure that

And make sure that leviathan's not in

At the airport last night at 1:30

He's not paid, he's not paid a penny.

He's not paid a penny. when our women's ministry bus

When our women's ministry bus broke down on their last trip,
00:15:08.887 --> 00:15:11.557
Broke down on their last trip, he gets in his car and drives

To not be a bunch of religious, proud people."
00:15:35.514 --> 00:15:40.085
Religious, proud people." you have big shots

You have big shots and celebrities
00:15:42.054 --> 00:15:42.988
And celebrities that they treat one way,
00:15:43.055 --> 00:15:45.424
That they treat one way, and then they get around
00:15:45.491 --> 00:15:46.458
And then they get around other people and look down

Other people and look down on 'em like they're nothing

00:19:36.722 --> 00:19:41.860
Have thine own way lord. what would happen if siblings
00:19:41.927 --> 00:19:44.162
What would happen if siblings washed each other's feet?
00:19:44.229 --> 00:19:47.532
Washed each other's feet? if husbands washed
00:19:47.599 --> 00:19:48.400
If husbands washed their wives' feet,
00:19:48.467 --> 00:19:49.968
Their wives' feet, wives wash their
00:19:50.035 --> 00:19:50.736
Wives wash their husband's feet?
00:19:50.802 --> 00:19:53.405
Husband's feet? people got in one mind
00:19:53.472 --> 00:19:56.108
People got in one mind and in one accord and said,
00:19:56.174 --> 00:19:59.611
And in one accord and said, "god, i've been so arrogant,
00:19:59.678 --> 00:20:03.015
"god, i've been so arrogant, i've been so haughty,
00:20:03.081 --> 00:20:04.650
I've been so haughty, i've in so stupid,
00:20:04.716 --> 00:20:06.985
I've in so stupid, i've been a covenant breaker,
00:20:07.052 --> 00:20:11.556
I've been a covenant breaker, i've been harsh,
00:20:11.623 --> 00:20:16.995
I've been harsh, i've been too prayerless,
00:20:17.062 --> 00:20:21.033
I've been too prayerless, i've depended on me more
00:20:21.099 --> 00:20:22.534
I've depended on me more than i've depended on you."
00:20:22.601 --> 00:20:27.739
Than i've depended on you." that is the very heart of god,
00:20:27.806 --> 00:20:30.175
That is the very heart of god, and here's the deal,
00:20:30.242 --> 00:20:31.343
And here's the deal, this is why it's so important.
00:20:31.410 --> 00:20:32.811
This is why it's so important. the moment that we did that,
00:20:32.878 --> 00:20:36.481
The moment that we did that, the air found passage.
00:20:36.548 --> 00:20:39.718
The air found passage. the holy spirit finds a way
00:20:39.785 --> 00:20:43.255
The holy spirit finds a way to bring the fresh wind
00:20:43.322 --> 00:20:45.090
To bring the fresh wind and move of god into a church,
00:20:45.157 --> 00:20:47.893
And move of god into a church, into a home, into a marriage,
00:20:47.959 --> 00:20:49.961
Into a home, into a marriage, into a family, but right now
00:20:50.028 --> 00:20:51.663
Into a family, but right now there's too many scales,
00:20:51.730 --> 00:20:55.133
There's too many scales, too hard.
00:20:55.200 --> 00:21:00.138
Too hard. but i wanna close
00:21:00.205 --> 00:21:01.006
But i wanna close with this verse,
00:21:01.073 --> 00:21:01.673
With this verse, thank you, ralph,
00:21:01.740 --> 00:21:02.708
Thank you, ralph, in isaiah.
00:21:02.774 --> 00:21:05.043
In isaiah. "in that day,"
00:21:05.110 --> 00:21:05.744
"in that day," says the lord.
00:21:05.811 --> 00:21:08.447
Says the lord. i love this.
00:21:08.513 --> 00:21:09.981
I love this. "i will sever,
00:21:10.048 --> 00:21:11.883
"i will sever, i will use my severing sword,
00:21:11.950 --> 00:21:14.686
I will use my severing sword, great and strong
00:21:14.753 --> 00:21:15.854
Great and strong and i'll punish leviathan,
00:21:15.921 --> 00:21:18.256
And i'll punish leviathan, the fleeing serpent."
00:21:18.323 --> 00:21:20.258
The fleeing serpent." leviathan that twisted --
00:21:20.325 --> 00:21:21.960
Leviathan that twisted -- he's a twister.
00:21:22.027 --> 00:21:23.862
He's a twister. that twisting serpent,
00:21:23.929 --> 00:21:27.065
That twisting serpent, "i will slay that
00:21:27.132 --> 00:21:28.033
"i will slay that reptile in the sea."
00:21:28.100 --> 00:21:29.968
Reptile in the sea." but notice what it takes,
00:21:30.035 --> 00:21:31.370
But notice what it takes, it takes a severe sword.
00:21:31.436 --> 00:21:35.607
It takes a severe sword. dull preaching won't
00:21:35.674 --> 00:21:37.476
Dull preaching won't pierce through.
00:21:37.542 --> 00:21:40.712
Pierce through. it takes severe
00:21:40.779 --> 00:21:42.114
It takes severe messages sometimes,
00:21:42.180 --> 00:21:44.316
Messages sometimes, it takes preachers getting up
00:21:44.383 --> 00:21:46.852
It takes preachers getting up and preaching and saying
00:21:46.918 --> 00:21:49.154
And preaching and saying the scales of lust,
00:21:49.221 --> 00:21:50.822
The scales of lust, because it all
00:21:50.889 --> 00:21:51.790
Because it all starts with pride.
00:21:51.857 --> 00:21:52.824
Starts with pride. but then the scale of lust,
00:21:52.891 --> 00:21:54.459
But then the scale of lust, the scale of uncleanness,
00:21:54.526 --> 00:21:56.361
The scale of uncleanness, the scale of addiction,
00:21:56.428 --> 00:21:57.729
The scale of addiction, all of that, it all groups
00:21:57.796 --> 00:21:59.364
All of that, it all groups together and cuts off the air.
00:21:59.431 --> 00:22:01.800
Together and cuts off the air. but god said,
00:22:01.867 --> 00:22:03.034
But god said, "i'm gonna send strong,
00:22:03.101 --> 00:22:05.070
"i'm gonna send strong, severe swords.
00:22:05.137 --> 00:22:06.805
Severe swords. that's what he's doing
00:22:06.872 --> 00:22:07.372
That's what he's doing here this morning.
00:22:07.439 --> 00:22:10.409
Here this morning. right now, america doesn't
00:22:10.475 --> 00:22:11.710
Right now, america doesn't need dull preaching,
00:22:11.777 --> 00:22:14.413
Need dull preaching, right now we don't
00:22:14.479 --> 00:22:15.313
Right now we don't just need to feel better
00:22:15.380 --> 00:22:16.415
Just need to feel better 'cause we went to church.
00:22:16.481 --> 00:22:17.282
'cause we went to church. sometimes, we need to
00:22:17.349 --> 00:22:18.717
Sometimes, we need to come in here and feel like,
00:22:18.784 --> 00:22:20.485
Come in here and feel like, "that pierced me,
00:22:20.552 --> 00:22:22.754
"that pierced me, that broke me.
00:22:22.821 --> 00:22:24.256
That broke me. i need to fall on my face
00:22:24.322 --> 00:22:26.958
I need to fall on my face and cry out in repentance
00:22:27.025 --> 00:22:28.960
And cry out in repentance to god."
00:22:29.027 --> 00:22:31.596
To god." what would happen
00:22:31.663 --> 00:22:32.297
What would happen if every teenager did that?
00:22:32.364 --> 00:22:34.533
If every teenager did that? instead of rebellion
00:22:34.599 --> 00:22:35.734
Instead of rebellion and stiff necked and,
00:22:35.801 --> 00:22:36.968
And stiff necked and, "ain't nobody gon'" --
00:22:37.035 --> 00:22:38.603
"ain't nobody gon'" -- what if god could --
00:22:38.670 --> 00:22:40.138
What if god could -- you've become so hard,
00:22:40.205 --> 00:22:42.040
You've become so hard, not even the wind of god
00:22:42.107 --> 00:22:45.911
Not even the wind of god phases you.
00:22:45.977 --> 00:22:48.713
Phases you. god's calling you.
00:22:48.780 --> 00:22:51.283
God's calling you. he's calling you
00:22:51.349 --> 00:22:51.950

Altar this morning. repent of pride because
00:22:55.253 --> 00:22:57.322
Repent of pride because pride goes before a fall,
00:22:57.389 --> 00:23:00.225
Pride goes before a fall, and a haughty spirit
00:23:00.292 --> 00:23:02.260
And a haughty spirit before destruction.
00:23:02.327 --> 00:23:06.465
Before destruction. but he gives grace
00:23:06.531 --> 00:23:08.366

Of jewish people,

The southern border
00:25:13.491 --> 00:25:14.626
In the region of eshkol.

The dark forces of hamas.
00:25:39.651 --> 00:25:41.453
It was the worst massacre

00:26:03.074 --> 00:26:04.075
At a pivotal moment,
00:26:04.175 --> 00:26:05.543
Poised to provide a lifeline
00:26:05.644 --> 00:26:07.145
For the people of eshkol,
00:26:07.245 --> 00:26:08.713
Who continue to be attacked
00:26:08.813 --> 00:26:10.048
By terrorists every day.

00:26:13.418 --> 00:26:14.486
Recently committed
00:26:14.586 --> 00:26:15.320
The largest amount of funding
00:26:15.420 --> 00:26:16.354
Ever towards the initiative,
00:26:16.454 --> 00:26:18.156
Phase number one,
00:26:20.158 --> 00:26:20.925
Provides physical safety.
00:26:21.026 --> 00:26:22.794
That is why we are building
00:26:22.894 --> 00:26:23.962
Civil defense centers,
00:26:24.062 --> 00:26:25.530
And over 800 safe houses,
00:26:25.630 --> 00:26:27.899
Making sure every family
00:26:27.999 --> 00:26:29.567
In the region has a safe room,
00:26:29.668 --> 00:26:31.102
In case of terrorist attacks.
00:26:31.202 --> 00:26:32.303
>> this is home.
00:26:33.238 --> 00:26:34.205
Israel is our place.
00:26:34.272 --> 00:26:35.273
This is the safest place
00:26:35.340 --> 00:26:36.074
We can be.
00:26:36.141 --> 00:26:37.609
And this safe room became
00:26:37.676 --> 00:26:39.010
Our little safe haven.
00:26:39.077 --> 00:26:40.245
It's something that
00:26:40.311 --> 00:26:41.680
Every single person
00:26:41.746 --> 00:26:42.681
In our area needs.
00:26:42.747 --> 00:26:43.815
I can't stress it enough
00:26:43.882 --> 00:26:45.717
That it saved our lives,
00:26:45.784 --> 00:26:46.885
It saved my husband's family
00:26:46.951 --> 00:26:48.486
Life on the 7th of october
00:26:48.553 --> 00:26:50.288
And it will continue
00:26:50.355 --> 00:26:51.389
To save lives.
