The speaker concludes by urging listeners to soak in God's love like raindrops and to obey His commandment to love Him above all else.

It's in my life! When I'm saturate with the Holy Ghost, now listen, I shall become wine. It's true, it's absolutely true. I wish I could stop talking about that, but there's a little book called Fruit Under God that's got something about it in it. Concerning with the Lord Jesus Christ, what the wine really is. If you see this in Deuteronomy chapter 11, of course it's all so easy. Well look, you know that the favourite way to describe Canaan, or the promised land, are in these words, verse 9 of chapter 11. The Lord sware unto your fathers to give unto them and to their seed a land that floweth with milk and honey. Now that's the basic description of the promised land, isn't it? It's called that more than anything else. Now you know what the milk is. It's the sincere word of God. It is true, it's in your heart, it's in your life. You're full of it, you see. It's easy enough, it's there. Flowing with the milk, flowing with the milk. That's the first thing people should notice about you, when you're flowing with, not quoting the Bible by chunks. Flowing with the word of God, that your words now become God's words. Amen. They're in your heart and they're in your mouth. And you're sweet, you're so sweet. You're not speaking the devil's words anymore. You're not speaking man's words anymore. You don't have to read up Shakespeare to get quotes for your sermons. Or anything like that, or anybody else. You're just flowing with the words of God. Amen. Because your words and God's words have become ours. I quoted that actually about Moses, you see. He was saying what God said and then he says, I'll give it to you. Hallelujah. The change. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Did you notice it was so natural, so simple. Blessed be the name of the Lord when a man can identify with God. These are God's heavenly people. This is basic. You're not even in the promised land. You're not in your possession. You're not. You better know because that's how God said it, what God said it was. Oh, it's filled up. Flowing with milk and honey. Gosh. Flowing with milk and honey. Do you know many people like this? Do you know? Flowing with milk and honey. Milk. You've never seen a river of milk. Have you? Flowing with milk. Do you know many of these people that flow with milk? You be honest. Do you? Do you? All the ways can come. It's right, isn't it? I'm just talking. It's right down to earth common sense. Things are right down to earth life. How could God be a God of heaven if he's not the God of earth? You see, God doesn't mean, well, I'm the God of earth and I can do this. He means that because he's God of you and you, now he's going to be God of the earth. And everywhere you go, the devil isn't boss. He isn't boss in your home. And he isn't boss in your life. And he isn't boss in your relationships. And hellish and sinful things don't come in anymore. Dirty, rotten things aren't in anymore. They're out. Selfish, money lusting things aren't in anymore. You see, they're out. I, me, ego, puff puff aren't in anymore. They're out. Because it is all puff puff, all a lot of it. All a lot of it. Hallelujah. Jesus has come to turn us into heaven on earth. All right, go on, I'll come back again. I haven't finished my trip through Deuteronomy. I want to come to the last chapter at the moment. Or at least the chapter before the last. And then we'll return really to the end of the chapter and stay there. I think, anyway. I'll tell you when it's a ten. In Deuteronomy chapter 33. You know that this 33rd chapter of Deuteronomy is the chapter of great blessings. When this man of God went through the different tribes of Israel and told them what their tribal position was and what the mark should be of that tribe and the blessings that should belong to that tribe. And that's marvellous because they all had a personal blessing and then they had a tribal blessing as well. Hallelujah. Isn't that wonderful? And he's moving in and he says in verse 26 There is none like unto the God of Geshurun. Now Geshurun is a name which means righteous or upright. It's a glorious name for Israel. None is like the God of these upright righteous people. God rideth upon the heaven in their help and his excellency on the sky. The eternal God. And underneath are the everlasting arms. And he shall thrust out the enemy before them. He shall say, destroy them. Hallelujah. Israel then shall dwell in safety alone. The thunders, Jacob, shall be upon a land of corn and wine. Also his heavens shall drop down. Who is like unto thee? O people saved by the Lord. The shield of thy help. And who is the sword of thy excellency? Thine enemies shall be found lying unto thee. So saying. I mean that's what chapter 34 is about. And Moses went on. Glory be to God. God rideth upon the heavens in thy help. We are beloved to live our lives on this earth in a heavenly state. Glory. Now then to chapter 11. As we open the chapter we find this. In verse 2. Moses says now. Know ye this day. I don't speak with your children which have not known. And which have not seen. His miracles. His signs. His wonders. His greatness. His special arms. Now listen. God always deals with us on the basis of knowledge. The things you know. The things you've seen. The things you've witnessed. Hallelujah. Always bear that in mind. If you and I are going to live in a heavenly state. As God wants to live on this earth. Remember that we've all seen and heard and known enough to be without excuse. Everyone. He always deals with us on the basis of knowledge. He won't deal with you on anything you haven't known. Amen. He's absolutely fair. He comes on a basis of things that have been revealed. Now listen to that. I don't know whether you're living this life of heaven on earth. I don't know whether you're living the wonderful life of Jesus as you should. But this I do know. That you've all seen miracles. You've all seen God's arms stretched out. Haven't you? If not. If you're hearing the gospel for the first time you say so. We all know some things about God. And God. You know what God's done in this place. You know what God's done to that person. Some of us can look back over lives beloved where we've seen God do wonderful miracles. No excuse for me for instance of living a heavenly life on the earth. None at all. No excuse for me to live like an animal. No excuse for me to live a life just mucked up and spoiled and ruined. None at all. Is there any excuse for you? Of course there isn't. There's no excuse for any one of us beloved. Bless the Lord for this. I thank him that he deals with us on the basis of reality. And here we go beloved. You know this don't you? What God did to the Egyptians. You know what God did to Pharaoh and his hosts in the Red Sea. When you came to this mighty baptism. For we're told in 1 Corinthians 10. That all the children of Israel were baptised unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea. When they came over the Red Sea that was their baptism. They weren't baptising water. They never got wet. None of them. They never even got their shoes muddy. They weren't baptising water. That was only figurative. They were baptising the cloud in the sea. And the cloud represents the Holy Spirit. So they were baptising the Holy Spirit when they went through the Red Sea. And they were baptised unto Moses. And when they were being baptised unto Moses. In this great one baptism. Beloved. Pharaoh and his hosts were destroyed. God dealt with the devil in their lives. God dealt with their fear of captivity. God did it all. Brought them out of the house of bondage. Closed the door to them. The door was the watery grave of Pharaoh and his hosts. Shove it. Amen. You've seen that haven't you? Haven't you seen that? Amen. You know that the devil's a destroyed foe don't you? Well why should you live like hell then? You know that all Pharaoh's chosen captives. His strong armed men. His greatest fighters. His princes of powers of the air. To put the thing right in its perspective. You know they're all destroyed don't you? As far as we're concerned. They shouldn't dominate our lives. We can't blame the devil. Only too many people are blaming the devil. You never heard any other complaints. Once the people got through their baptism. The real baptism in the spirit. You never heard them say. Oh it's the devil. Look what the devil's doing. Look it's the devil. You won't read that anywhere. I challenge you. If you read your bible and see. The only people they were troubled with was Sarah. That's right. Everybody's blaming the devil. Poor devil he gets a blame for what he doesn't do. Excuse me I've got no... Now just stop blaming the devil. If you've been baptized with this baptism. He's destroyed. Believe it. People won't believe it. They won't believe it. They won't believe what old Adam said. And that the devil's destroyed. Read Hebrews 2. Read it tonight before you go to bed. It tells you there. It destroyed the devil. Him that had the power of death. This death's gone from us. Do you believe that? The devil has no power to bring me into spiritual death. None. Hallelujah. Yeah. Bring it back into the flesh. The devil. Stop blaming the devil. Don't you have any more testaments for the devil in this room? Don't you have them? Tell them to sit down please. We're sorry sister. We don't want to hear that. Sorry brother. You needn't say sorry. But I mean you know what I mean. Excuse me perhaps. Glory to God. When you start believing that you're the star of heaven. Star of heaven. Do you believe that? Oh glory. I'm now set on a heavenly course in this earth. Praise God. Do you believe that? Amen. Praise him. And we're moving in this marvellous life. And you see. And oh I like this. But look at verse 8. It says you shall keep the commandments which I command you this day. That ye may be strong and go in and possess the land whither ye go to. That's what it's all about. I'm going to possess it. Praise the name of the Lord. It's not going to possess. Yeah. I'm going to possess. My newborn spirit says that my soul isn't going to swallow me up. I'm going to possess my soul. It's through the soul that the earth and the water. Now you check it and see. There it is. I'm going to possess my soul. Jesus gave us the clue. He said in your patience possess ye your soul. In your patience possess ye your soul. If a man will be patient he'll possess all his soul. And he'll come up from his renewed spirit. And if his soul wants to sort of go lusting after this one. Hallelujah. You've got to make the soul subject. Not your spirit subject to the soul. You've got to learn. That's what they went into the promised land to do. To learn to be conquerors. And when they were conquerors they became more than conquerors. What's there? More than overcomers. What's there? They went in. They put their foot down. They conquered. See. It's as easy as that. That's right isn't it? That's what he said. I'll drive them out. You destroy them. Glory be to God. Oh the taste of victory. The sweet of victory. This makes the honey sweeter than ever. Lord moves us in this wonderful realm. And your whole soul is flowing with milk and honey. From your spirit. It is alive. Regenerate. Indwells. Endued. Glory to God. That's where it all comes from. Amen. Praise God. It's your spirit that's been regenerated. And your soul has got to be saved every minute of the day. That's sanctification for you. The salvation of the soul is sanctification. Amen. So the Lord takes us on. Moment by moment. In this marvellous time. Let's go on. And he says. Prolong your days in verse 9. In the land which the Lord sware to your fathers to give it undue. It is for their seed. A land of trust. Sworn to give it to you. Sworn to give it to you man. Sworn. You couldn't use a stronger word. To give this to me. Sworn to give it to me. Glory to God. Amen. Hallelujah. If you like he's there. Before all heaven's host. He's sworn to do it. He's got to do it. Did you know God? Did you know? What the Lord is doing. Oh it's beautiful. Suited to people that have sore throats at bedtime. Now listen. Let's understand this first thing. It's going to be a long time. The land whither thou goest in to possess it. Is not as the land of Egypt. From whence you came out. You're out. Amen. Glory. Where thou sowest thy seed and water it with thy foot. As a garden of herbs. But the land. This isn't a herb garden beloved. The land whither he go to possess it. It's a land of hills. And valleys. And drinketh water. The rain of heaven. The land which the Lord thy God careth for. God was upon it. From the beginning of the year. He's not at the end. His eyes are on you beloved. His eyes are on you. He's got his love upon you. He has an eye on you. Tenderly. Compassionately. You must have. You know. Glory be to the name of the Lord. Glory. I believe. He doesn't do anything. This is the secret. This is the secret beloved. Beloved. Son of the rushing light. Hallelujah. It drinks water of the rain of heaven. Now have you ever seen a lamb drinking? Have you? I mean I've been up on the Yorkshire moors. I've been down in the Devonshire vales. Vales. There's vales anywhere else. And they're always awkward in Yorkshire. They're. They're. You see. They're. The rain just falls and it drinks it in. You don't hear a lot of noise. All you hear is the rain. You don't hear a lot of noise all around. I'm drinking. That's what it's drinking. That's what it's drinking. You don't hear a lot. It just drinks it in. It's. This is the new nature. Soaks it in. Doesn't it? That's all it does. It can't do anything else can it? It doesn't have to do anything does it? No it doesn't. God has to do it all doesn't he? Yes. That's right. Yes. Amen. Amen. Who ever heard of the earth raining to heaven? Heaven rains to earth. Earth doesn't rain on itself. Oh it's so simple. God's undertaken beloved. He's committed himself. He's sworn. He's honoured. He's going to do it. Under certain conditions he'll keep on. He'll never stop. He drinks in water the rain of heaven. Hallelujah. Seek it after it could be. Tell yourself some truth. Tell yourself some truth. Go on. Do it now. I'm going to stop. Start telling yourself some truth for once in your life. Oh. Go on soak it in. Soak it in beloved. There's an if you see in verse 13. If you have. What do you want me to do? To love. Do you know what? You can do that can't you? Hearken to Michael. Glory be to God. To love and to serve him. With all your heart. And with all your soul. So if you do that I'll give you the rain that you'll have. In this due season. The first rain and the latter rain. You gather it. Of your possessions. Of your own. Belongs to you. There are very few people who are doing this. Very few people are gathering in their corn. A land of corn and wine and oil says Charles Wesley. Favoured with God in every way. Everlasting rest. Bring your wine. Bring your oil. Grapes of the vine. Oh. You've got to see this. Just keep falling into the ground and dying. That's what the earth's good for that. Not going to let him get away with that. Not going to let him get away with that. Always sticking up for their own rights. But Jesus was hung up for you. That's the only right you have in your life. He was stuck up on a tree. Your right. So you haven't got to stick up for your own. Don't do it. Hallelujah. Gathering. Blessing. Amen. And I'll send grass in thy fields for thy cattle. Of course. He won't have any milk in it. He does. So you see your milk depends upon the rain. The rain depends upon whether you will love the Lord your God with all your heart and serve him. That's what it says. That's right, isn't it? Your milk depends upon your cattle. It depends upon the grass. It depends upon the rain. Which depends upon you loving and serving God. That's the explanation. If you're not reaping. If you're not gathering in these things. You cease to love the Lord as he wants to be loved. You're ceasing to serve the Lord as he wants to be served. You've got to serve God in your office by keeping your mouth shut. You don't stick up for rights. You don't do that. It's your own self-seeking. Yes. In your home. With your husband or your wife or your children or your mother or your father. Except your brother. Jesus. Hallelujah. What you do. You praise God. Once you see this, beloved. Once you really know how to turn the other cheek. Once you really know how to go the second mile and the third. Once you really know how to give your coat back to your house. Once you've known how to do these things. Once you've laid down your life. Which means your right to. Once you've laid down. It was so easy then. It was so easy. It's the rain. It's not the house that gets it. In between the grass grows a flower. That the bees come. And you know when honey flows, don't you? You know about that, don't you? When it's warm. If you put the temperature down, it soon can cure the honey. That's right, isn't it? You see, the milk will flow in some pretty low temperatures. But honey won't. Honey needs warmer temperature for the milk. The scent of the flower. The grapes give forth a tender smell. You know. Song of Solomon. Have you ever lain out in a field on a summer day? Of course, not in Manchester. And the flowers all grow in the grass around you. And heard. Have you ever done it? Smelled the scent of the grass. And hear the bees humming. Have you ever done it? And the sun shining on you. I used to do it. I don't do it so much now. But this is the great thing. And when that's all there. Now take heed of yourself. Let your heart be not the sea. And you turn aside. And serve other gods. And worship them. And the Lord wrought the kingdom against you. And he shut up the heavens. That there be no rain. And that the land yield not her fruit. And lest ye perish quickly from off the good land which the Lord gave you. Lay up where I sat. And read the Lord these words. Oh. He says. Keep in your heart. In your mind. Talk about it. Praise the name of the Lord. Talk about it to your children. Turn your home into a little bit of heaven for your children. Amen. Glory be to God. Father give me your hand. On your hand. Don't do anything that's contrary to the thing I'm saying. Don't think about the thing I'm saying. Don't do it. Move in the reality of this glorious night. This is what he's saying to you. Oh. The days may be marked if I tell you one. The days of your children. And the man shall all swear unto your Father this gift. The days of heaven. Is that what you want? Yes. Live today. Live tomorrow. Live the next day as heaven on the earth. Isn't that right? Yes. Listen. The kingdom of heaven is at hand. Hear Jesus talking. The kingdom of heaven is at hand. Among those that have been born of women, there hath not risen a greater than John Baptist. Yet he who is greater than him. That man lived the heavenly state on the earth. And here, beloved, is the call of God. We can live this life. We've been regenerated with his own generation. His own power. We've been born from heaven. Just as he was. Hallelujah. He is God of gods. We are sons. We've been born. Hallelujah. Glory be to God. We are here to move into this glorious heavenly state. We are not to be under depression. We are not to be oppressed. We are not to be downcast constantly. We are not to be... We are not to be sold out to the things of this world at all. We are not. We've got to have a form of a matter. We are making it productive. Bringing the glorious things of heaven. So the Lord moves me. And we can all live it. Praise God. Well, are you a heavenly person? Yes. Praise God. Are you a heavenly person? Yes. Or a very much earthly one? Because you see... I believe so. You soon... Now, I soon know if you let me come into your home, where you live. I soon know whether you were of the earth. I soon know. But the Lord knows if you like that. He's the God of heaven. Believe that. Yes. Then I do. I'm on this earth.
