00:06:22.824 --> 00:06:23.458
The water, names him,
00:06:23.524 --> 00:06:24.058
Names him, calls him leviathan.
00:06:24.125 --> 00:06:25.126
Calls him leviathan. maybe they can throw that
00:06:25.193 --> 00:06:25.793
Maybe they can throw that scripture up.
00:06:25.860 --> 00:06:26.661
Scripture up. and it says that's where
00:06:26.727 --> 00:06:28.229
And it says that's where he likes to play,
00:06:28.296 --> 00:06:30.431
He likes to play, down lurking in the water.
00:06:30.498 --> 00:06:33.634
Down lurking in the water. lurking and playing

Lurking and playing in the water.
00:06:35.336 --> 00:06:37.839
In the water. and so, this spirit
00:06:37.905 --> 00:06:40.842
And so, this spirit is one that the church
00:06:40.908 --> 00:06:42.310
Is one that the church deals with.
00:06:42.376 --> 00:06:43.811
Deals with. this spirit is one

This spirit is one that ministries and christians
00:06:45.246 --> 00:06:47.215
That ministries and christians have to deal with.
00:06:47.281 --> 00:06:48.616
Have to deal with. the bible says pride
00:06:48.683 --> 00:06:49.784
The bible says pride goes before a fall,
00:06:49.851 --> 00:06:52.220
Goes before a fall, and destruction haughty --
00:06:52.286 --> 00:06:54.522
And destruction haughty -- a haughty spirit
00:06:54.589 --> 00:06:55.990
A haughty spirit before destruction.
00:06:56.057 --> 00:06:57.391
Before destruction. destruction is a bad thing,
00:06:57.458 --> 00:06:59.794
Destruction is a bad thing, and i've watched it,
00:06:59.861 --> 00:07:00.962
And i've watched it, i've watched it
00:07:01.028 --> 00:07:01.629
I've watched it in others.
00:07:01.696 --> 00:07:02.263
In others. and i'm not preaching
00:07:02.330 --> 00:07:03.064
And i'm not preaching to you today only,
00:07:03.130 --> 00:07:06.000
To you today only, i'm preaching to me
00:07:06.067 --> 00:07:08.102
I'm preaching to me that this is something
00:07:08.169 --> 00:07:09.170
That this is something we must be aware of,
00:07:09.237 --> 00:07:10.505
We must be aware of, this is something
00:07:10.571 --> 00:07:11.405
This is something we must guard,
00:07:11.472 --> 00:07:13.341
We must guard, this will ruin
00:07:13.407 --> 00:07:14.942
This will ruin your marriage,
00:07:15.009 --> 00:07:15.776
Your marriage, this will ruin your family,
00:07:15.843 --> 00:07:17.912
This will ruin your family, this will ruin your success,
00:07:17.979 --> 00:07:19.981
This will ruin your success, this will ruin your vision,
00:07:20.047 --> 00:07:22.049
This will ruin your vision, this will wipe you out.
00:07:22.116 --> 00:07:23.851
This will wipe you out. this is a big deal.
00:07:23.918 --> 00:07:24.785
This is a big deal. when he calls it a king,
00:07:24.852 --> 00:07:26.220
When he calls it a king, he's saying this is
00:07:26.287 --> 00:07:27.088
He's saying this is a ruling spirit that
00:07:27.154 --> 00:07:29.457
A ruling spirit that every church, every person
00:07:29.524 --> 00:07:32.193
Every church, every person who's involved in the water,
00:07:32.260 --> 00:07:34.428
Who's involved in the water, the moving of the holy spirit.
00:07:34.495 --> 00:07:36.497
The moving of the holy spirit. because you're anointed
00:07:36.564 --> 00:07:38.766
Because you're anointed and the spirit is moving,
00:07:38.833 --> 00:07:40.201
And the spirit is moving, that does not
00:07:40.268 --> 00:07:41.035
That does not mean that this spirit --
00:07:41.102 --> 00:07:43.037
Mean that this spirit -- he's attracted,
00:07:43.104 --> 00:07:43.971
He's attracted, he likes to play there.
00:07:44.038 --> 00:07:46.173
He likes to play there. and one of the sure signs
00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:48.843
And one of the sure signs that leviathan has a grip
00:07:48.910 --> 00:07:51.045
That leviathan has a grip in your life is when
00:07:51.112 --> 00:07:52.713
In your life is when you no longer feel
00:07:52.780 --> 00:07:54.315
You no longer feel the need to pray.
00:07:54.382 --> 00:07:57.018
The need to pray. and it's alright,
00:07:57.084 --> 00:07:58.286
And it's alright, because god sent me
00:07:58.352 --> 00:07:59.654
Because god sent me with the anointing to break
00:07:59.720 --> 00:08:00.755

00:08:00.821 --> 00:08:03.558
You free from that today. god's gonna put a hook
00:08:03.624 --> 00:08:04.559

00:08:04.625 --> 00:08:05.393
In his mouth. i can't do it,
00:08:05.459 --> 00:08:06.060
I can't do it, but god can.
00:08:06.127 --> 00:08:06.994
But god can. [applause]
00:08:07.061 --> 00:08:08.195

It's important to pray. and he will resist,
00:08:14.001 --> 00:08:16.003
And he will resist, he will resist prayer.
00:08:16.070 --> 00:08:20.441
He will resist prayer. but pride says,
00:08:20.508 --> 00:08:22.209
But pride says, "i don't make supplication,
00:08:22.276 --> 00:08:23.611
"i don't make supplication, i don't feel the need to,
00:08:23.678 --> 00:08:24.979
I don't feel the need to, i don't need the help,
00:08:25.046 --> 00:08:26.213
I don't need the help, i can handle my own problems."
00:08:26.280 --> 00:08:28.282
I can handle my own problems." second question,
00:08:28.349 --> 00:08:30.384
Second question, he said, number one,
00:08:30.451 --> 00:08:31.953
He said, number one, "will he offer supplication?"
00:08:32.019 --> 00:08:33.321
"will he offer supplication?" the answer is no.
00:08:33.387 --> 00:08:34.288
The answer is no. notice the second
00:08:34.355 --> 00:08:35.523
Notice the second way pride manifests.
00:08:35.590 --> 00:08:37.091
Way pride manifests. leviathan's lurking,
00:08:37.158 --> 00:08:38.559
Leviathan's lurking, you can't see it on the surface.
00:08:38.626 --> 00:08:42.363
You can't see it on the surface. but the scripture said --
00:08:42.430 --> 00:08:43.230
But the scripture said -- he asked,
00:08:43.297 --> 00:08:44.298
He asked, "will he speak soft words?"
00:08:44.365 --> 00:08:47.702
"will he speak soft words?" in other words,
00:08:47.768 --> 00:08:49.570
In other words, one of the ways you can tell if
00:08:49.637 --> 00:08:51.572
One of the ways you can tell if leviathan is manifesting in your
00:08:51.639 --> 00:08:53.441
Leviathan is manifesting in your life is by the words
00:08:53.507 --> 00:08:55.943
Life is by the words that come out of your mouth.
00:08:56.010 --> 00:08:58.646
That come out of your mouth. when you become proud,
00:08:58.713 --> 00:09:01.349
When you become proud, you can't speak soft words,
00:09:01.415 --> 00:09:03.551
You can't speak soft words, kind words, gentle words.
00:09:03.618 --> 00:09:07.054
Kind words, gentle words. you can speak the truth in love,
00:09:07.121 --> 00:09:09.256
You can speak the truth in love, the bible said.
00:09:09.323 --> 00:09:10.791
The bible said. but proud people think that they
00:09:10.858 --> 00:09:12.660
But proud people think that they have a right to be harsh,
00:09:12.727 --> 00:09:15.396
Have a right to be harsh, and mean, and angry,
00:09:15.463 --> 00:09:18.065
And mean, and angry, and demeaning with words.
00:09:18.132 --> 00:09:22.470
And demeaning with words. and i'm praying today,
00:09:22.536 --> 00:09:23.371
And i'm praying today, "god, forgive us
00:09:23.437 --> 00:09:24.338
"god, forgive us and forgive me."
00:09:24.405 --> 00:09:26.240
And forgive me." i don't know about you,
00:09:26.307 --> 00:09:26.941

00:09:29.076 --> 00:09:32.179
Oh god, i don't want pride to be heard in my conversations.
00:09:32.246 --> 00:09:35.216
To be heard in my conversations. the more he trusts us,
00:09:35.282 --> 00:09:36.584
The more he trusts us, the more he blesses us,
00:09:36.651 --> 00:09:38.619
The more he blesses us, he does not want it
00:09:38.686 --> 00:09:39.754
He does not want it to make us arrogant
00:09:39.820 --> 00:09:41.422
To make us arrogant and harsh with people.

00:09:51.699 --> 00:09:53.868
With thee?" no.
00:09:53.934 --> 00:09:56.270

But when this kind of spirit gets a hold of you
00:10:16.357 --> 00:10:17.158
Gets a hold of you and you're prayerless,
00:10:17.224 --> 00:10:18.426
And you're prayerless, you don't pray,
00:10:18.492 --> 00:10:19.226
You don't pray, you don't ask god for help,
00:10:19.293 --> 00:10:21.095
You don't ask god for help, and you have harsh words,
00:10:21.162 --> 00:10:22.396
And you have harsh words, and you're cussing
00:10:22.463 --> 00:10:23.130
And you're cussing everybody out,
00:10:23.197 --> 00:10:24.799
Everybody out, and you're saying whatever--
00:10:24.865 --> 00:10:25.499

What nobody thinks," you have leviathan.
00:10:28.536 --> 00:10:33.074
You have leviathan. and then on top of that,
00:10:33.140 --> 00:10:34.809
And then on top of that, he becomes a covenant breaker.

Marriage covenants begin to be broken,
00:10:41.982 --> 00:10:44.051
To be broken, and that's where
00:10:44.118 --> 00:10:44.618
And that's where uncleanness comes in.
00:10:44.685 --> 00:10:46.420
Uncleanness comes in. the lust -- jesus said the devil
00:10:46.487 --> 00:10:47.922
The lust -- jesus said the devil only has three weapons.
00:10:47.988 --> 00:10:49.557
Only has three weapons. it will never change.
00:10:49.623 --> 00:10:51.125
It will never change. he always comes with the lust
00:10:51.192 --> 00:10:53.194
He always comes with the lust of the eyes,
00:10:53.260 --> 00:10:54.195
Of the eyes, the lust of the flesh,
00:10:54.261 --> 00:10:55.629
The lust of the flesh, and the pride of life.
00:10:55.696 --> 00:10:59.467
And the pride of life. and so, what these spirits do
00:10:59.533 --> 00:11:01.268
And so, what these spirits do is they gather around him
00:11:01.335 --> 00:11:04.004
Is they gather around him and they --
00:11:04.071 --> 00:11:04.672
And they -- lust comes,
00:11:04.739 --> 00:11:06.006
Lust comes, and bitterness comes,

And unforgiveness comes, and they just --
00:11:14.915 --> 00:11:16.050
And they just -- they seal things up
00:11:16.117 --> 00:11:17.818
They seal things up so that the wind
00:11:17.885 --> 00:11:19.186
So that the wind of the spirit --
00:11:19.253 --> 00:11:20.121
Of the spirit -- you can't even talk to people
00:11:20.187 --> 00:11:21.856
You can't even talk to people 'cause you're so offended
00:11:21.922 --> 00:11:23.190
'cause you're so offended to them,
00:11:23.257 --> 00:11:23.958
To them, you can't even get around them,
00:11:24.024 --> 00:11:25.493

Hook and pull it out?" no, it takes god,
00:11:32.733 --> 00:11:34.902
No, it takes god, it takes a move of the spirit.
00:11:34.969 --> 00:11:36.737
It takes a move of the spirit. god said,
00:11:36.804 --> 00:11:37.371

00:12:17.111 --> 00:12:18.445
Weak little gospel we've been preaching
00:12:18.512 --> 00:12:19.246
We've been preaching that makes people think
00:12:19.313 --> 00:12:20.514
That makes people think that they can be rebellious,
00:12:20.581 --> 00:12:23.284
That they can be rebellious, hard hearted, the wind,
00:12:23.350 --> 00:12:26.120
Hard hearted, the wind, the move, the breath of god
00:12:26.187 --> 00:12:27.621
The move, the breath of god can't even get to you,
00:12:27.688 --> 00:12:29.957
Can't even get to you, no prayer, harsh words,
00:12:30.024 --> 00:12:32.660
No prayer, harsh words, cussing people out,
00:12:32.726 --> 00:12:33.961
Cussing people out, saying whatever you've --
00:12:34.028 --> 00:12:35.296
Saying whatever you've -- come to your mind,
00:12:35.362 --> 00:12:37.331
Come to your mind, and then just be alright
00:12:37.398 --> 00:12:38.899
And then just be alright with the lord.
00:12:38.966 --> 00:12:40.634
With the lord. that is not what
00:12:40.701 --> 00:12:41.468
That is not what this book teaches.
00:12:41.535 --> 00:12:44.171
This book teaches. we need to get in
00:12:44.238 --> 00:12:44.805
We need to get in the altars,
00:12:44.872 --> 00:12:45.940
The altars, and we need to say,
00:12:46.006 --> 00:12:46.740
And we need to say, "take the hook
00:12:46.807 --> 00:12:47.875
"take the hook and get this junk out of me.
00:12:47.942 --> 00:12:49.643
And get this junk out of me. i wanna be humble,
00:12:49.710 --> 00:12:50.845
I wanna be humble, i want to have the spirit
00:12:50.911 --> 00:12:52.313
I want to have the spirit that you had, jesus."
00:12:52.379 --> 00:12:53.814
That you had, jesus." [applause]
00:12:53.881 --> 00:13:01.722
[applause] how long, how long
00:13:01.789 --> 00:13:02.523
How long, how long are we gonna go?
00:13:02.590 --> 00:13:04.925
Are we gonna go? life is short,
00:13:04.992 --> 00:13:05.459
Life is short, life is going by.
00:13:05.526 --> 00:13:08.596
Life is going by. pride won't let us
00:13:08.662 --> 00:13:09.997
Pride won't let us even love people that
00:13:10.064 --> 00:13:12.066
Even love people that we're supposed to love.
00:13:12.132 --> 00:13:16.637
We're supposed to love. verse 4, he asked
00:13:16.704 --> 00:13:18.839
Verse 4, he asked one last question.
00:13:18.906 --> 00:13:21.208
One last question. he says, "will thou
00:13:21.275 --> 00:13:23.410
He says, "will thou take him for a servant?"
00:13:23.477 --> 00:13:26.013
Take him for a servant?" and the answer's no.
00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:28.315
And the answer's no. pride will cause you
00:13:28.382 --> 00:13:29.283
Pride will cause you to have a difficult
00:13:29.350 --> 00:13:30.584
To have a difficult time serving people.
00:13:30.651 --> 00:13:33.554
Time serving people. you will not want
00:13:33.621 --> 00:13:34.388
You will not want to serve people
00:13:34.455 --> 00:13:36.290
To serve people when pride gets
00:13:36.357 --> 00:13:37.024
When pride gets a hold of you,
00:13:37.091 --> 00:13:37.791
A hold of you, you wanna be served.
00:13:37.858 --> 00:13:39.159
You wanna be served. but jesus was a servant.
00:13:39.226 --> 00:13:42.696
But jesus was a servant. [applause]
00:13:42.763 --> 00:13:45.666

To church and, you know, whatever."
00:13:47.868 --> 00:13:49.403
You know, whatever." serving is a position
00:13:49.470 --> 00:13:51.538
Serving is a position of humility.
00:13:51.605 --> 00:13:53.674
Of humility. leviathan doesn't
00:13:53.741 --> 00:13:54.742
Leviathan doesn't want you to serve.
00:13:54.808 --> 00:13:57.211
Want you to serve. bible said,
00:13:57.278 --> 00:13:57.678
Bible said, "after he had eaten dinner,
00:13:57.745 --> 00:14:00.848
"after he had eaten dinner, jesus arose from
00:14:00.915 --> 00:14:03.450
Jesus arose from the table after he ate."
00:14:03.517 --> 00:14:07.388
The table after he ate." it says that,

It says that, it's all in one sentence.
00:14:08.289 --> 00:14:09.256
It's all in one sentence. "after he ate,

"after he ate, he arose from the table."
00:14:11.091 --> 00:14:15.529
He arose from the table." and he took a basin,
00:14:15.596 --> 00:14:21.635
And he took a basin, bring it over for me,
00:14:21.702 --> 00:14:22.403
Bring it over for me, demetrius, thank you.
00:14:22.469 --> 00:14:25.839
Demetrius, thank you. and he took a towel,
00:14:25.906 --> 00:14:30.144
And he took a towel, they didn't know
00:14:30.210 --> 00:14:30.511
They didn't know what he was doing,
00:14:30.577 --> 00:14:32.913
What he was doing, but he's about to
00:14:32.980 --> 00:14:33.781
But he's about to clean the water
00:14:33.847 --> 00:14:35.349
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

To not be a bunch of religious, proud people."

You have big shots and celebrities
00:15:42.049 --> 00:15:42.983
And celebrities that they treat one way,
00:15:43.050 --> 00:15:45.419
That they treat one way, and then they get around
00:15:45.486 --> 00:15:46.453
And then they get around other people and look down

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

The scale of addiction, all of that, it all groups
