This sermon emphasizes the importance of recognizing that as believers, we are the temple of God and the Spirit of God dwells within us. It highlights the urgency of seeking God's presence and yielding to the Holy Spirit in these challenging times, urging individuals to go deeper in their relationship with God and fully surrender to His will.

They said, now, you say that's Old Testament. What does that have to do with the New Testament times in which we're living? Know you not that you're the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? And if any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy. For the temple of God is holy, which temple you are. Now, folks, I'm closing with this. I'm saying this is not normal Christianity anymore, not in these times. Not when we have our president and key leaders in our country saying, we're going to live from now on under the gun. We're going to live from now on under this. And you see people everywhere looking, seeking for a church, seeking for a word from God. When 9-11 hit, for two months prior to that, God broke through in Times Square Church with warning after warning. We didn't know where it was going to strike. All the pastors were slain different nights, just slain, weeping and broken before God confessed it, opening our hearts to whatever he said. And Holy Ghost would come down at Times Square Church in total silence. He couldn't move, he couldn't sing, he couldn't worship, total silence. One night for over a half hour, just sitting. And service after service, and Pastor Carter and Pastor Neal and all of our pastors, Pastor Patrick, we would just say, what's God doing? What do we do? What do we do? But you see, God was warning, he was speaking. The prophetic words came to prepare our hearts. And you see, when it came, the next few Sundays when people came to Times Square Church and would boast as only in the Lord and true humility before God, there was a word, the towers have fallen, we've not learned our lesson. And Pastor Carter and Pastor Neal and Pastor Patrick, there was a word from the Lord, people didn't have to ask what happened. God spoke because he called us to go to the mount. God's not asking you to wait six days. He's not asking you for 40 days and 40 nights. He's asking, he's asking you to come up. God wants to take you deeper and further than you've ever not been compared. Will you stand? I wonder how many of you are in this service tonight. You say, Pastor David, I know God's calling me up. I know he's calling me out. And I want to yield to the Holy Spirit tonight. Folks, we have no place here to give an invitation, and that's not what God's put on our hearts. Folks, I have not arrived. What I preach tonight, he's worked in my spirit and my soul. He wants to work it into your heart. Before you leave this conference, we would hope that you'd be so spiritually motivated by the Holy Ghost to seek God. I would hope that you'd go to your hotel even and spend some time with him. And say, Oh, God, I want to leave this conference to follow what you've already told me to do. And I went so far. And that's what I'm going to pray about right now. I wonder how many, and I can't even see your hands, but God can. How many of you have to say tonight in an honest confession before the Lord, I want to go all the way to the mountain, and I haven't gone all the way like I want to, and I need his touch tonight. And I want God's presence in my life. I want the presence of Christ. Raise both hands to the Lord, now, while I pray. Just lift both hands. Come on, all over the congregation and up in the balcony, wherever you may be. Holy Spirit, I pray right now that in your most kind and loving way, your tenderheartedness, that you would deal with me first and deal with every here in this building tonight, that you would call us out of ourselves, out of our busyness. Lord, this sin is busyness. Well, we can't seem to find the time. We can't make it, and it's getting shorter and shorter. Our time with you is becoming less and less. When, oh, God, we should, whatever it takes, whatever the cost, we say, Oh, God, lay hold of my heart. God, come. Lord, I pray for everyone within the sound of my voice struggling with something that has come and surprised them, something they didn't ask for, something they didn't expect, but the enemy came and surprised them. And, Lord, some have to stand here and say, I have allowed something in my life I never thought I would or could, but the enemy has surprised me. I didn't want this, but it's come. Oh, God, bring freedom while they're here in these meetings. Bring freedom tonight. Break the chains that bind, oh, God. Lord, I know that you're doing this. I know you're going to do it in these meetings. Lord, we give you praise. Would you just call on the name of the Lord? Everybody in this building, just call on his name. Speak your heart and your mind to him now. Everyone, Lord, touch me. Lord, help me. Call me. Lord, cause me to come now into your presence. Lord, I've been busy. I've had time for people. I've had time for everything in my agenda, but I've been neglecting you, oh, God. Forgive us and call us back, oh, God. Take us to the mountain, we pray. Take us out of the house, place of defilement. Purge us and cleanse us and sanctify us in this building, we pray. Come on, folks, call on his name right now. Let's lift a voice. Let God hear it from New York, from the crossroads of the world. Right out of Times Square, God, you hear a cry from your people tonight. Oh, God. Folks, God wants you to call on him right now. Call on his name. God, touch me. Touch me tonight. Let me not let go of this. Let me not let go of the truth. God, let the truth get a hold of my heart tonight. Break me and melt me, oh, God. Take the pride out of my heart. Melt my heart before you, Holy Spirit. Melt my heart, I pray, oh, God. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Folks, we have my contract word to close this curtain by 930. In the next ten minutes, I want us just to worship him. We're going to close out all of our services with worship. We're going to honor the Lord. And then when you get out, after the curtain comes down, then you're free to visit the services, 10 o'clock. And what time is the afternoon service, Pastor? 1.30? What? 1.30 in the afternoon. Doors open one hour before each service for security purposes, for security reasons. Folks, no pastor, no speaker is going to bludgeon you, and is going to beat on you or rail on you. We preach like we do because God had to deal so deeply with our own weaknesses and our own struggles. We've got a long way, so we appreciate that you pray for us as we pray and minister to you. We need it when you said we're here to wash your feet. Hallelujah. Lord, we thank you for your presence. That's the most important thing here tonight, your presence. God bless you.
