  • It's the wind of judgment in the scriptures.
  • 00:04:29.983 --> 00:04:31.685
  • In the scriptures. when joseph had the dream
  • 00:04:31.752 --> 00:04:33.921
  • When joseph had the dream of the seven skinny cows,
  • 00:04:33.987 --> 00:04:36.623
  • Of the seven skinny cows, the bible says this
  • 00:04:36.690 --> 00:04:37.558
  • The bible says this in genesis 41,
  • 00:04:37.624 --> 00:04:38.959
  • In genesis 41, it was a prediction
  • 00:04:39.026 --> 00:04:40.194
  • It was a prediction about a famine that was
  • 00:04:40.260 --> 00:04:41.462
  • About a famine that was coming for seven years.
  • 00:04:41.528 --> 00:04:43.030
  • Coming for seven years. and the scripture said that
  • 00:04:43.097 --> 00:04:45.632
  • And the scripture said that there came a blast from
  • 00:04:45.699 --> 00:04:47.000
  • There came a blast from the east wind that
  • 00:04:47.067 --> 00:04:48.469
  • The east wind that sprang up in his dream,
  • 00:04:48.535 --> 00:04:50.871
  • Sprang up in his dream, and he saw the cows
  • 00:04:50.938 --> 00:04:52.339
  • And he saw the cows go from fat to skinny
  • 00:04:52.406 --> 00:04:54.608
  • Go from fat to skinny because a famine came.
  • 00:04:54.675 --> 00:04:56.710
  • Because a famine came. but notice what brought

  • And there's one area where they have hundreds
  • 00:15:03.149 --> 00:15:04.384
  • Where they have hundreds of these big wind
  • 00:15:04.451 --> 00:15:07.620
  • Of these big wind propellers that are in

  • "good preaching, brother franklin."
  • 00:17:20.386 --> 00:17:21.187
  • Brother franklin." amen.
  • 00:17:21.254 --> 00:17:21.688
  • Amen. i agree.
  • 00:17:21.754 --> 00:17:24.891
  • I agree. i'm almost done.
  • 00:17:24.958 --> 00:17:28.428
  • I'm almost done. but what is interesting
  • 00:17:28.495 --> 00:17:29.562
  • But what is interesting about wind is this.
  • 00:17:29.629 --> 00:17:32.932
  • About wind is this. do you know that you can
  • 00:17:32.999 --> 00:17:34.000
  • Do you know that you can cause the wind to blow?
  • 00:17:34.067 --> 00:17:38.671
  • Cause the wind to blow? where does it come from?
  • 00:17:38.738 --> 00:17:40.907
  • Where does it come from? takes two things.
  • 00:17:40.974 --> 00:17:41.641
  • Takes two things. number one, you have to
  • 00:17:41.708 --> 00:17:42.575
  • Number one, you have to have high --
  • 00:17:42.642 --> 00:17:43.610
  • Have high -- a high pressure area up
  • 00:17:43.676 --> 00:17:46.146
  • A high pressure area up in the heavens and then
  • 00:17:46.212 --> 00:17:49.082
  • In the heavens and then you have to have
  • 00:17:49.149 --> 00:17:49.916
  • You have to have a low-pressure
  • 00:17:49.983 --> 00:17:51.084
  • A low-pressure area down here.
  • 00:17:51.151 --> 00:17:53.987
  • Area down here. and what happens is,
  • 00:17:54.053 --> 00:17:56.456
  • And what happens is, out of that low pressure
  • 00:17:56.523 --> 00:17:59.359
  • Out of that low pressure there comes heat,
  • 00:17:59.425 --> 00:18:02.962
  • There comes heat, and the heat is
  • 00:18:03.029 --> 00:18:03.997
  • And the heat is what goes up,
  • 00:18:04.063 --> 00:18:06.266
  • What goes up, and that's what fo --
  • 00:18:06.332 --> 00:18:07.567
  • And that's what fo -- gets the to moving down
  • 00:18:07.634 --> 00:18:10.203
  • Gets the to moving down through that cycle.
  • 00:18:10.270 --> 00:18:11.504
  • Through that cycle. in other words,
  • 00:18:11.571 --> 00:18:12.639
  • In other words, what i want you to
  • 00:18:12.705 --> 00:18:13.439
  • What i want you to understand is when you're
  • 00:18:13.506 --> 00:18:15.141
  • Understand is when you're in the low-pressure
  • 00:18:15.208 --> 00:18:16.609
  • In the low-pressure areas of life,
  • 00:18:16.676 --> 00:18:19.679
  • Areas of life, it's time to heat up.
  • 00:18:19.746 --> 00:18:22.682
  • It's time to heat up. it's time to
  • 00:18:22.749 --> 00:18:23.283
  • It's time to heat up your prayers,
  • 00:18:23.349 --> 00:18:25.718
  • Heat up your prayers, heat up your praise.
  • 00:18:25.785 --> 00:18:29.422
  • Heat up your praise. what do you do when you're
  • 00:18:29.489 --> 00:18:30.390
  • What do you do when you're low and under pressure?
  • 00:18:30.456 --> 00:18:33.560
  • Low and under pressure? you heat up.
  • 00:18:33.626 --> 00:18:35.094
  • You heat up. because if you want
  • 00:18:35.161 --> 00:18:36.162
  • Because if you want the wind to come,
  • 00:18:36.229 --> 00:18:38.364
  • The wind to come, it's going to take some
  • 00:18:38.431 --> 00:18:39.299
  • It's going to take some heat and low pressure.
  • 00:18:39.365 --> 00:18:42.235
  • Heat and low pressure. turn up the heat
  • 00:18:42.302 --> 00:18:43.269
  • Turn up the heat where you are.
  • 00:18:43.336 --> 00:18:45.238
  • Where you are. this is what elijah did.
  • 00:18:45.305 --> 00:18:46.806
  • This is what elijah did. the bible said that he
  • 00:18:46.873 --> 00:18:48.775
  • The bible said that he prayed and the servant
  • 00:18:48.841 --> 00:18:50.610
  • Prayed and the servant came and said,
  • 00:18:50.677 --> 00:18:51.711
  • Came and said, "i don't see nothing."
  • 00:18:51.778 --> 00:18:53.279
  • "i don't see nothing." and then, he turned up
  • 00:18:53.346 --> 00:18:54.547
  • And then, he turned up the heat and prayed again
  • 00:18:54.614 --> 00:18:56.316
  • The heat and prayed again and prayed again and sent
  • 00:18:56.382 --> 00:18:57.584
  • And prayed again and sent him back seven times.
  • 00:18:57.650 --> 00:18:59.118
  • Him back seven times. and on the seventh time,
  • 00:18:59.185 --> 00:19:00.386
  • And on the seventh time, the servant said,
  • 00:19:00.453 --> 00:19:01.654
  • The servant said, "there is a great wind
  • 00:19:01.721 --> 00:19:03.356
  • "there is a great wind that is coming and in
  • 00:19:03.423 --> 00:19:05.024
  • That is coming and in the wind is a hand,
  • 00:19:05.091 --> 00:19:06.593
  • The wind is a hand, and in the hand is a rain.
  • 00:19:06.659 --> 00:19:08.861
  • And in the hand is a rain. and something is
  • 00:19:08.928 --> 00:19:10.263
  • And something is headed our way."
  • 00:19:10.330 --> 00:19:11.631
  • Headed our way." because when you get in
  • 00:19:11.698 --> 00:19:13.433
  • Because when you get in that low pressure area,
  • 00:19:13.499 --> 00:19:15.535
  • That low pressure area, you have to heat up.
  • 00:19:15.602 --> 00:19:16.836
  • And a great wind,
  • 00:19:20.974 --> 00:19:22.742
  • And a great wind, and a great cloud,
  • 00:19:22.809 --> 00:19:25.411
  • And a great cloud, and great rain came.
  • 00:19:25.478 --> 00:19:27.614
  • And great rain came. now, i want to close
  • 00:19:27.680 --> 00:19:28.414
  • Now, i want to close with this, acts 2:1,
  • 00:19:28.481 --> 00:19:32.485
  • With this, acts 2:1, "and when the day of
  • 00:19:32.552 --> 00:19:33.319
  • "and when the day of pentecost was fully come,
  • 00:19:33.386 --> 00:19:38.358
  • Pentecost was fully come, they were all in

  • They were all in one accord, in one place."
  • 00:19:39.158 --> 00:19:43.596
  • One accord, in one place." i wanna get in one service
  • 00:19:43.663 --> 00:19:44.964
  • I wanna get in one service like this before

  • I die and go to heaven. i want to get in one service

  • I want to get in one service where every windmill
  • 00:19:49.535 --> 00:19:52.438
  • Where every windmill is spinning.
  • 00:19:52.505 --> 00:19:54.507
  • Is spinning. no resistance, everybody.

  • "they were in one place in one accord and suddenly

  • In one accord and suddenly there came a sound
  • 00:20:06.052 --> 00:20:07.487
  • There came a sound from heaven as a mighty
  • 00:20:07.553 --> 00:20:11.424
  • From heaven as a mighty rushing wind, and it
  • 00:20:11.491 --> 00:20:13.593
  • Rushing wind, and it filled all the house

  • Filled all the house where they were sitting."

  • 00:20:20.166 --> 00:20:20.833
  • I want to be so sensitive to that wind.
  • 00:20:20.900 --> 00:20:23.636
  • Sensitive to that wind. "there appeared under
