In this sermon, the preacher focuses on the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego from the book of Daniel. He emphasizes that when Jesus shows up, the game is over for the enemies. The preacher highlights how these three men refused to bow down to the threatening forces and were thrown into a fiery furnace. However, they were protected by God, and even the king witnessed a fourth man in the fire who looked like the son of God. The preacher urges believers to stand firm in the face of opposition and trust in God's power to overcome the wrath of Satan.

My message this morning, the wrath of Satan shall praise God. The wrath of Satan shall praise God. Psalm 76, reading from verse 4 through 10. Thou art more glorious and excellent than the mountains of prey. The stout-hearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep, and none of the men of might have found their hands. At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and the horse are cast into a deep sleep. Thou, even thou, art to be feared. Who will stand in thy sight when once thou art angry? Thou dost cause judgment to be heard from heaven, the earth feared and was still. When God arose to judgment to save all the meek of the earth. And here's my text. Surely the wrath of men shall praise thee. The remainder of wrath shall thou restrain. Heavenly Father, we thank you for the word of God. We thank you for the anointing of the Holy Spirit. Will you come upon me now with your anointing. Holy Spirit, speak from heaven. Speak through me as a vessel to the honor and glory of our blessed God and Savior. Jesus Christ the Lord, through the power of your Holy Spirit. Let us glorify you now in our hearing. Give us ears to hear what the Spirit has to say. In Jesus name, amen. Surely, God says unmistakably, you can be confident of this. All the wrath of men shall praise the Lord. Now, I want to ask the question. Where is the wrath coming from that is now falling as a blanket over the whole world? There is a wrath, a rage, a fury such as the world has never beheld in its history. The wrath that I see now, there's the wrath of Islam. The wrath of ungodly who are given over to their sins. The wrath of demon-possessed dictators. The wrath of the wicked who loathe and despise the very name of Jesus Christ. The wrath of men who become the devil's instruments to destroy Israel. Folks, I have been hindered all week from trying to preach this message. I want you to pray with me right now that the heavens will be opened. That all the opposition of hell will vanish. Heavenly Father, I'm asking you now to withstand the powers of hell that come. We speak against the wrath that has come. Satan's wrath. Lord, loose my tongue. Loose my spirit in the name of Jesus Christ. There shall be no opposition out of hell. For greater is he that is in us than he that is in the world. Greater is he that is in us than he is in the world. My friends, the present wrath that's in the world today is beyond human nature. No human nature is capable of the intensity of the wrath that is being spewed out on the world right now. The scripture says the wrath of Satan. Satan has come down having great wrath because he knows his time is short. And folks, I want to share my heart with you. This has been burning in my heart all week. I've been absolutely persecuted out of hell itself. Mentally, physically, spiritually, in every way, attacks from the enemy. But you're going to hear a word now from the throne of God. This is a satanic rage. Jesus himself said when this rage comes that they're only doing what their father the devil tells them to do. They're being obedient to their father. Why do the heathen rage and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth have set themselves and the rulers take counsel together against the Lord and against his anointed one. This is a rage against God and his son Jesus Christ. The rage that you see in the Mideast right now is not between Hezbollah. It's not between Hezbollah and Israel. This is Islam against God. This is the powers of darkness. Not only Islam, but every other religion that is trying to establish their God or their Messiah as the rule of this whole earth and all humanity. And this is a day of fury and rage that has never been seen or understood in the history of mankind. It's satanic in its fury. This rage are have been lifted up against the Lord and the Lamb of God himself. Folks, there's a pattern in the Old Testament. This rage is not new. You read in the Old Testament of a king, Nebuchadnezzar, who set up a golden God. And he commanded all the leaders and all the world leaders within his jurisdiction. He commanded all the princes and all the powers that were to come and bow down before his golden idol. There were three young Jews who refused to bow down. And the Bible said the fury, the rage of the king arose in his heart. And he said, whose God is able to withstand me? He faced these three Hebrew children, Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego. And he said, where is God? What kind of God you serve that you think you can stand against my God, against my idol? Now, when the music starts, you're all going to bow down and you're going to do obeisance to my God. This music sounded. They would not bow. The Bible says the rage, the fury fell upon King Nebuchadnezzar. And he heated the furnace. This was a pit furnace, I presume. And men standing around this pit furnace to watch and behold the judgment on those who would not bow to their God. And they threw these three Hebrew children into the fiery furnace. And you know this story. It's very common to all of us. Heated seven times over. The king had said to them, whose God is able to deliver you from my hand? They said, our God is able. But if not, we're still going to serve him. And they would not bow down to these threatening forces. And the king throws them in and they start walking around in this. You know, don't picture some metal furnace, some little dinky thing. No, this is a broad thing. And this is a testimony to all in this kingdom. And they're standing around the ledges or all the world, all the leaders of the provinces, over 100 provinces. And they're looking down at this scene. And some of those men that led them down the stairs, perhaps to cast them in closest to the fire, died because of the heat. And now these men are walking around in the furnace, walking on the coals and on the fire. And the king looks at it and he said, I cast three men in there, but there are four. He said, and their hair is not burning. Their clothes are not burning. And they are talking to one another and they're walking around. And the fourth one looks like the son of God. The king had been full of rage, but now listen to his report. I see four men in the fire. The fourth man looks like the son of God. The scripture said he called them out and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. You see, when Jesus shows up, the game is over. When Jesus manifests his presence, the enemies have to cower before him. The scripture says he told them, he told them, Thou, let me read it here. Thou, blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, who delivered his servants, who trusted in him and have changed the king's word, that they may not serve any God except their own God. Folks, history is repeating itself. Right now, in almost every Islamic country, there is terror raging. And not only there, but this force, this enemy forces come against the body of Jesus Christ. And the name of our God is an attempt to make Allah the God of the whole world, the God of this earth. And that is it. And so they come with their doctrine and with their guns and with their knives and say, If you will not bow to our God, we will blast your airplanes out of the sky and we will blow up your trains and your towers and your tunnels. And I get to think of what kind of God has to use people with guns to defend him. I'm not being facetious, but this terror, these militant Islamics, they say bow down or burn. It's the same thing in the Old Testament. They were threatened. They were forced to bow down. We see the same thing be repeated now. And we have heard it. They made a claim that within 15 years they will rule in England. And the scripture said he that said it in the heaven shall laugh. The Lord shall scoff at them. Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath and terrify them in his fury. The Jehovah God listens to this. God says in the Bible says he laughs. He sits in the circle of the earth and laughs and scoffs at this foolishness. And then he goes on to say, but as for me, this is Psalm two. But as for me, I have installed my king upon Zion. Thou art my son. And while all of this is going on in the face of the earth now, what you're seeing today in your news reports around the world is a battle. It's an eternal battle. It's very little to do with Israel. The only reason they want Israel out of the way is because that represents the return of Jesus Christ. This represents every prophetic word in this Bible. And the devil, for some misguided way, out of his madness, thinks that if he takes the land, he can stop Christ from returning. And why America is the great Satan? I'll tell you why. Because we have been the missionary sending country for centuries, for many, many years. We have been sending out. And God is moving by a spirit by missionaries that are coming out of our country, out of the United States and now doing a great work for God, even in Islamic countries. God is turning the wrath of Satan, which is through man, who've been given over to him and his forces. And he says, everywhere you see wrath, you're going to see me turn it around to my glory. You're going to see glory for Jesus Christ coming out of it all. Hallelujah. Well, they tell us, unless you'll rain. Jesus said, you're too late. I've already installed my son, King of Zion. He's already reigning in power and authority and nothing, folks, nothing can change that. There's a growing wrath and anger against the heart in the hearts of men against the very name of Jesus Christ. Why is it men shudder at his name? Why is it they have tried to legislate the name of Jesus Christ out of our society? Not only here, but all through Europe and around the world. More and more now militants are rising, taking power. And it's all against the name of God and his son, Jesus Christ. I have it on very good authority, very dependable authority. But a move was made just recently in the chaplaincy, the military chaplaincy from the highest directors. Never again to name the name of Jesus Christ. No chaplain, Catholic or Protestant to never name the name of Jesus Christ. Now, fortunately, that has been delayed. But that's where it's headed. What is it about the name of Jesus Christ that is so hated now that you can't name him? You can name Allah, you can name Mohammed, you can name anybody, but you can't name Jesus Christ. You can't talk about him in schools. You can't think about him anywhere where the government property and most government property. Why such a rage against Christ? It's what he represents. Jesus Christ represents freedom from the power of sin. His name represents deliverance and life. The name of Jesus entails and represents everything contrary to human nature, the Adamic human nature. And so the enemy rages against it because the Bible says men love their sin and they don't want to turn from their wicked ways. They're given over to their sins. Those who have been walking in wickedness. The Lord says they love the sin that the Bible said they hate righteousness. Folks, I'm not railing against anybody, but we've got to see this in the context of of of the scripture, not just appalling. This rage is not something political. It's more than that is spiritual. That's a supernatural in the supernatural realm. And until the church of Jesus Christ understands that there's going to be nothing but compromise. And this will when when a chaplain asked why they couldn't mention the name of Jesus Christ. The answer was we must be spiritually mature in a pluralistic pluralistic society. In other words, you we have to be tolerant. We have to be spiritually mature. What a trick of the devil to to try to do away with the name of Jesus Christ and the chaplaincy and then name it spiritual authority, maturity, spiritual maturity. Folks, you understand where we're at and what is happening in our country. I'm not trying to stir up your emotions. Paul said they fully understand the judgments of God. And yet they take pleasure in those who indulge this as they do. Nikki Cruz was my gang leader years ago when I first came to the city. First time I met him in the streets and green green projects in Brooklyn. He slapped me and told me to go to hell. But the Lord saved him. He was one of our first converts in this ministry. And now an evangelist around the world. And just a few weeks ago, he was in London. In one of the most crime ridden sections of a borough called Hackney in London, he'd been called by a chief of police in that area because crime was out of control. And this is one of the worst sections. He was invited to come and bring his team and a group of workers, street workers. So so Nikki agreed to come. But the homosexual community in Hackney, the mayor of the borough of Hackney is gay and most of the city council is gay. And they went into Nikki's Web site and found a statement that he had made. He was just answering a letter about homosexuality. And Nikki said, well, according to the word of God, homosexuality is a sin, said. And it's not in any. He went on to say homosexuality is not the only problem. There's a doctor fornication and and all of this. And so it hit the headlines. It hit the front pages and they call Nikki Cruz homophobic. Nikki Cruz, intolerant and went on and on about about Nikki Cruz. And they decided to ban him. They can come. There was rage. There was fury, incredible fury from people who always keep talking about needing tolerance. Most intolerant action you can conceive to shut him down. Nikki wanted to preach to the gangs and to the drug addicts that raging on the street. Nikki stood up for his rights. An attorney stood with him and said, no, if you give rights to all of these other groups, we are Christians and we demand the same rights. Nikki won the case. Now, Nikki's in the city this past weekend and he's here. And I talked to him yesterday because I've been getting emails because they were using my name as well. And I just want to know what they're saying. And so, Nick, Nick, he went with his team and the Holy Spirit fell, came down on the streets of Hackney. Fifteen hundred were saved. The biggest the biggest response for Christians in 10 years. And the auditorium that night was so packed they had to shut the doors. You see what the Bible says, what God says, the wrath of men shall praise me. The wrath of God, the wrath of men, the wrath of men will praise him. The wrath of men was turned around. Same thing happened in China years ago. The communists came into China with wrath and they literally banned all religious activity and all worship of all kinds. And so Buddhism was brought down. And some of those gods that held Chinese into captive for a year and left the vacuum, left people empty. And they were searching. And God turned it to his glory, turned it all around. And an underground church started that now numbers millions and millions of Christians is still growing. The wrath of men shall praise him. Paul, the apostle, Saul, later named Paul, is on his horse heading to Damascus to rage against Christians. No man raged more in the New Testament history than this man Saul to rage against Christians, to jail them and even kill them. And God knocks him off his horse. Jesus appears. You see, when Jesus comes on the scene, that's what happened in London. Jesus came on the scene and everything changes. Jesus came into the fiery furnace. Everything changed. The king says, we will worship the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego because no other man could deliver like this. No man, no other God could deliver in this manner, he said. And there's no other God. There's no other power than Jesus Christ that can come down on the streets of London to harden drug addicts and gang leaders. There were seven gangs that called peace. Only God can do that. Now, folks, this those communities that rose up against Nikki, they were not fighting against Nikki. They were not rising up against Nikki because there was going to be a witness established in that city. That means that drug addicts thrown away their needles, changing, turning to God. What looked impossible and to see those that were fighting gang leaders laying down their weapons and calling peace. It's a testimony that many sinners can't handle because this is a witness that God and our Christ can do anything. Nothing is impossible that no bondage that man is held in can be held in that when Jesus comes on the scene and Jesus came on the scene. And those who are bound by their sins don't want to see that they don't. They're afraid they may be convicted of their sins. And, folks, I'm going to tell you something, this rage will never cannot be appeased. It cannot be appeased because the more you compromise with this spirit, the more rage there is. You see, we keep saying to people, we we love you, but we hate your sin. And those who are bound by habits don't want to hear that. That that's probably the most unlikable thing that they hear, especially from Christians. We we love you, but we hate your sin. But it's not love they want, but acceptance. But, folks, we we see Jesus come on the scene with his great love and this shatters it. And same in Lebanon now. We have emails coming from Jordan and from Syria and the Lebanese, especially from south Lebanon, were fleeing because of the bombing in south Lebanon, especially fleeing to Jordan and Syria. And the pastors, there's a good work of the Holy Spirit in Jordan. And they got together, the evangelicals all got together and said, we're not going to take sides. As Christians, we're not going to take side with Israel. And as Jordanians, we're not going to take sides with the Arabs. We're going to stay neutral and we're going to take them in. We're going to feed them. These refugees that are coming in, taking and feeding them. And, folks, because of this demonstration of love, Jesus appears on the scene. And the Bible says now they're open. Many are open to the gospel of Jesus Christ. And once again, the wrath of men is turned to the praise of God. Hallelujah. Folks, I'm fighting through hell to get this message delivered. It's like the devil himself standing right there trying to mock and ridicule. But I think you're hearing. How many are hearing what the word of the Lord is saying? The Bible said they will say, let us tear off their chains and cast off their cords from us. In other words, we will no longer tolerate this Jesus church stuff trying to block us from our pleasures. They shall try to tear off their chains and cast off the cords from them. Let us take the high moral ground away from the church. Let us break all these chains, all this legislation. And now many from various communities are running for office and they're winning offices. And they are taking over city councils and states and into the courts. Our courts are now legislation. You stand by and you begin to think, are we losing the battle? Look how quick. And I hear this from the secular crowd. Who's changing all these laws? What has happened to us in America that so quickly all of these things are happening now? And the time is coming already in the EU, European Union. It's called politically incorrect. And it can cost you jail if you're a preacher standing like I preach today. If I were some of those countries, I would be in jail tomorrow. And folks, that is coming to the United States. It's going to come to the time that you are not even to quote it. That's going to be called a bias crime. Folks, we are not to rail against anybody. But we've got to know where we stand. We've got to know that that there are powers of hell raised and there's a mad devil's come down to earth, knowing that he has just a short time. Then the Bible says in such an hour when God's wrath is when man's wrath is about to to swallow up. In fact, this is what the scripture says. They have set up their own standards for signs. This is Psalm 74. It seems as if they have lifted up their axes walking through a forest of trees and they smash with hatchet and hammers. They have defiled the dwelling place of your name. How long, oh God, will you allow the adversaries to revile? How long will the enemy spurn and mock your name? You say, how long before you move? How long before you do something about this? Before America and the nations of the world turn into that chaos that is described in the Bible as the New Testament ends, that every man was a law to himself. Every man was a law to himself. There were no moral standards and our moral standards are falling on the right and to the left, into the dust. And the cry was, oh, God, when will you move? When will you do something about this? What will God do? Is God going to send judgment? You see, this Bible says the scripture said where sin abounds, grace does much more abound. And I believe with everything in my heart that what we're going to see in these last days, more and more as the terror increases and folks, you could be sure we're going to be hit here in this country again. And I believe the Lord is going to pour his grace. I believe that Jesus loves Lebanese. He loves Arabs. He loves Jews. There's there's not one race. There's not one color on the face of the earth that Jesus Christ does not love. And he died for every one of them. And he is patient and we're seeing now the patience of God. This is the greatest demonstration the world has ever known of the patience of God. He was patient. His patience came to an end with Sodom and Gomorrah and the flood. And we know his patience can come to an end. But his judgments are all meant to redeem. They're all redemptive. Judgments are redemptive. And even though it looks hopeless at times, it looks like there could not be a reviving. God is still moving. We can't I can't even tell you in one Islamic country, Teen Challenge. Now, it's not called Teen Challenge, but there are 500 converted drug addicts there and every one of them want to preach. And, folks, I'm telling you that God in this last day, in this time of crisis, there is an outpouring of divine grace. The same grace that came upon Saul and turned him into Paul, the apostle. The same grace that was poured out on China and millions rising up in hidden churches and in outlawed churches. The same thing is in Cuba. Churches are growing fast in Cuba. And everywhere the enemies come in, Islam cannot stop the work of the Holy Spirit. It will not. It cannot stop the work of the Holy Spirit. And the purpose of my preaching and my message this morning, don't be afraid. Don't stand back and say Islam is going to control the world. No, we're not to fear those things. The greater concern of Christ is with his own body, with his own people, where you and I stand. Not where Hezbollah stands, not where the terrorists stand and what they're doing. Yes, God is allowing the world to do what it does because of their insistence in living in their sins. But, folks, before the trumpet sounds, grace is going to be poured out. This country doesn't deserve grace. No country deserves grace and mercy right now, but God doesn't do it because we deserve it. You weren't saved because you deserved it. I was not saved because I deserve it. It's the grace and the mercy of Almighty God. And Jesus Christ has been installed in Zion. Jesus Christ, the Lord of all, is going to come in the last days. And I'm prophesying to you now. And, devil, you can't stop it. The day is going to come when this city is going to be so terrified. You won't be able to seat people. You'll be standing around the walls. And every Christian is going to have to get up to your seat and let others hear. There will be meetings here where there will be no preaching other than 10, 15 minutes and many, many hundreds turning to Jesus Christ. And this will happen all over the world. We can hear the rain begin to fall right now. God is moving in Israel. And the reason God has allowed Israel to be stopped in its tracks is because it has been boasting. It has been boasting in its military might. And now God is saying, I'm going to get your attention. It's not by might. It's not by power. But it's by my spirit, saith the Lord. And God is going to knock all the props out from under Israel. God is going to move in the last days. And God will do what He promised to do in this book. He's going to plant His feet in Mount Zion. And there will be no other nation taking control. Don't worry that Israel is going down. But even in Lebanon now, there are many Christians, many, many Christians that are praying. And they're going to try to rebuild. There may be rebuilding, but there is going to be a great work of the Holy Spirit in the churches. There are going to be people in churches all over America do what they did in this city after 9-11. They went to all the churches in this city were packed. And because the pastor wasn't preaching anything about what was happening, people were saying, what happened? What's the reason? What's the cause for it? And there were no answers. And they were standing up and they walked out because there was nothing said from many pulpits. There were some pulpits that told people that, you know, the towers have fallen and we have missed the message. And the message is such that, folks, the day is coming. And hear me. The day is coming when people are going to stand right up in these churches, small churches, big churches, megachurches. They're going to stand up. They're going to come down the aisle. They're going to corner pastors and church leaders and say, why aren't we being told? Why weren't we told? We want to hear the truth. We're scared. We're frightened. What's happening? What's the Bible saying? Oh, yes, folks. God's going to wake us up. But he's doing it because he loves us and he loves the lost folks. If he can take the most wicked, the most violent man in Israel and turn him into the apostle Paul. Down in Columbia, God is saving some of the leaders of the drug cartel. And they go to jail and get saved and start preaching the gospel. And that's happening everywhere. Glory be to God. Now, folks, before I close, there's a rage against the individual members of the body of Christ. Satan has come against you. And what we see now, there has never been the kind of afflictions we're seeing now in the body of Christ. I know ungodly people suffer their afflictions, their trials for all mankind. But the believers, those who are close to the heart of Jesus, are especially being marked by the principalities and powers of darkness. And I would believe that there is no one in the sound of my voice here today that is not going through a testing. And what is happening is absolutely satanic. It is the work of Satan himself coming against the body of Christ. Because didn't the Lord say he knows his time is short. Now, folks, I want to close with this. There is a weapon. We are not sitting ducks. We are not namby-pamby little cowards cowering before a devil. No. The church of Jesus Christ shall prevail. The Bible said the gates of hell will come against it. But the church of Jesus Christ will not be shaken. It shall prevail because Jesus is already a stalled king. But we have a weapon. And, folks, now I see it more than ever. Our weapon are the promises of Almighty God. The promises of God. Now, folks, get ready. Hear this. It's simple. But you've got to hear it in the spirit. Just breathe a prayer, Lord. Holy Spirit, let me hear it and let me practice it. I go into this Bible now and I have promises of God marked everywhere from beginning to end. And every day now. Yesterday I went through probably 200 promises. And I'll tell you, I got so blessed. I got so built up. The resources began to flow so that I felt that I could take on legions of demons. Because the Holy Ghost, through His Word, faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. Don't just look for a place. And not just saying, well, Old Testament, Psalm. Get and underline these promises. Put them in a red pencil, whatever. If you've got a Bible that can't be marked, give it away. You have to have a Bible now. And you stand on these promises. That's what Jesus did. The devil came against him and he stood. I don't care how sick you might be. I don't care how the devil thrown evil thoughts and trying to capture, trying to insert all of these things into your head and your mind. Stand on the promise and say it is written and this is what I stand on. I don't care how the world shakes. I don't care where the world goes. I have the Word hidden in my heart. Stand up and get your Bible out. And go to Isaiah 42. Isaiah 42 in the annex everywhere, please. Folks, if you don't start shouting, I think you don't hear a word I said. Isaiah 42. Oh, thank God for His Word. If you've been listening lately from this pulpit, every preachers come this pulpit is talking about laying hold of this word and seeking the face of God. Everywhere we start preaching, we end up saying the same thing. Let's start verse eight. I am the Lord. That's my name. I could start right there and shout. I'm the Lord. I'm the Lord of everything. I'm the Lord over the terrorist. I'm the Lord of all of the things that are happening on the face of the earth. I am Lord. That's my name. My glory will I not give to another. Neither my praise to graven images. Behold, the former things that come to pass, new things I declare. Before they spring forth, I tell you of them. He just told you some of the things that are going to spring forth. Sing unto the Lord a new song and praise from the end of the earth. Go to verse 13. The Lord shall go forth as a mighty man. Is the devil going to be able to take control? The Lord shall go forth as a mighty man. He shall stir up jealousy like a man of war. He shall cry, yea, roar. He shall prevail against his enemies. I've for a long time held my peace. I've been still. I've refrained myself. But now I'm going to cry like a travailing woman. I will destroy and devour at once. Verse 16. And I will bring the blind by way that they didn't know. I'll lead them in paths that they have not known. I will make darkness light before them and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them and not forsake them. Verse... Now let's stop right there. Let me read the last verse again. I will make darkness light before them, crooked things straight. These things will I do for them and forsake them not. Let's go to verse 17. They shall be turned back. They shall be greatly ashamed. That's the enemies of God that trust in graven images. They say to their molten image, ye are our gods. Raise your hands and begin to talk to the Lord and thank him for his word from heaven today. And Lord, we thank you for the mercy and the grace that you're going to pour out upon all the earth. Lord, in the evening there shall be light. At the evening time, the last hour, there shall be a breaking forth of light. The glory of the Lord shall be manifested. Jesus shall come on the scene. Our Christ and our Lord who has been installed in your Zion. Holy Spirit, come forth in this meeting now. Come forth, oh Lord, letting us know where we are. In the annex, raise your hands and begin to talk to the Lord. Oh, Jesus. Oh, Holy Spirit, come. Our God reigns. Our God reigns. God can. Just a moment. If you're here, within the sound of my voice, I said, Pastor Dave, when you begin to talk about the enemy coming against me, that's where I am. And what you sense happening to you is probably more vicious than you've ever witnessed in your lifetime with Christ. You are going through the battle. Now, we've said that a number of times on this pulpit. A lot of our preaching is about how to overcome these attacks. But I'm talking very seriously about those that have come to the place where you say, I don't think unless God does something right because I can carry this load, I can't fight this anymore. It's too much for me. I'm being overwhelmed. And you've been shaken by it. And you're hurting by it. Jesus is here. He's on the scene. He's walking in our midst. He's walking in the middle of your fire. Upstairs, downstairs. And in the annex. I want you to just step out if you need prayer. I say, Pastor David, you're describing what I'm going through now. We're going to take authority in Jesus' name. This chain will be broken. The enemy who's come against your mind. Someone really being harassed in your mind. The devil just speaking so many lies into your spirit and into your mind. God wants to cleanse your mind and heal your mind and your spirit. If you will look this way for just a moment for those that have come forward. Those who are in this house. The Bible says you resist the devil and he will flee from you. Now, you and I don't have the innate power to do that. We can't resist the devil in our own strength. And it is this word. It is this word. I want to give you just one other promise. And I want you to hear it. And if you can remember, it's in Isaiah 41. Just remember Isaiah 41. And when you go home or sometime at the restaurant or wherever you have. You can borrow Baba. Go to the. You can read the whole chapter. You'll find verse 41 verses 10, 12 and 13. Fear not. For I'm with you. Don't be dismayed because I'm your God. I'm going to strengthen you. Yes, I'm going to heal you. I'm going to uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness. They that are against you shall be as nothing. For I, the Lord, your God, will hold your hand. And I hold your hand. I'm going to say, don't be afraid because I'm going to help you. Don't be afraid because I'm going to help you. We don't do this much, but would you repeat this? Don't be afraid. God's going to help me. Now, that's his word. Don't be afraid now. God's going to help you right now. Going to help you when he hit the streets. He's going to help you when you get to your house. Going to help you on the job because you've humbled yourself before him. I'm going to ask the Lord right now to stand with us. We have the authority in the name of Jesus Christ the Lord to bind principalities and powers, and no other religious entity on the face of the earth has that power or has that authority. They've tried it, and the demons leaped on them. But there is power in the name of Jesus, and we're going to exercise that power. Have everybody in this house that knows the name of Jesus, loves the name of Jesus, pray with me now that all the powers of hell will be shaken. Folks, we chased the devil spirited out of this house that tried to invade this morning. We've cast that out, and we're going to ask God to cast those lies out of your mind. Lord, in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, the name given among men, the only name whereby we may be saved, we take your authority, Jesus, over every demonic spirit, every principality and power of darkness. We bind and cast out in the name of Jesus. Lord, your power is demonstrated. You are in this house. You are in this place walking among us. Release the minds from these onslaughts of the devil, these evil thoughts, these implantations of the enemy. Cleanse our minds. Sanctify. Do a work of your Holy Spirit, O God, in this service now. Hallelujah. You can just call on the name of Jesus right now. He'll come and fill your heart. Just lift your hands and call on the name of Jesus. Lord Jesus, I trust you. I give you my heart. I give you my sins and turn them to you, O Christ. O victorious Jesus, we do. Pray this prayer with me, Lord Jesus. Thank you for your promises. Help me, Holy Spirit, to walk the way you choose me to walk. Lord Jesus, I need strength. I need release from the powers of darkness. Thank you for keeping your word. Thank you, Jesus, for your promise. Help me now to understand them and build up my soul in them. In Jesus' name. Amen. Glory be to God. This is the conclusion of the message.
