Sermon Transcription
So welcome everybody. Uh, yeah, glory nights. I don't know how many, but, um, how many of you are out from out of state? You could raise your hand. Okay. Come on, Jesus. Thank the Lord. We squeezed you in, uh, if anybody needs seats, come sit on the stage. My seat's over here either way, but, um, but I won't keep you all long tonight. I have a few announcements and then a word fresh out of revelation. I'm not going to get super in timesy on you or nothing like that, but. Um, some attributes I see that have been highlighted again recently started from a dream back in 2017, but just the other day when I was in the word, the Lord popped it back up in my spirit and I've been digging through revelation and, and, uh, I want to hit some highlights and then get back into just letting the Holy spirit move. Is that okay? Yeah. That's kind of what these are. Hence the name glory nights. You know, we don't teach and preach a whole lot. Uh, we've been doing that a bunch with our Academy and that's some of the announcements I have. We'll get out of the way. We're just excited. How many of you need healing in your body? So go ahead and raise your hand. Okay. We want to pray for healings and miracles. Pastor Elizabeth, how are you doing? Like, just give me a hug. She's a legend. How are you? Um, how are you doing? I'm Brian. So nice to meet you. Hey, you can't, can't be rude. Can't be rude and, and, uh, not introduce yourself anyway, but pastor Elizabeth, I want to honor her quick and, uh, Jeff, how many of you know dwelling place church in Houston, Texas? Yeah, they're amazing. Like a second home. And, um, we'll be there Wednesday, you know, this week, their mega conference, 10 C you got all calm, listen, plane, train, bus, just, it's right there. Well, sort of, I'm, I'm used to being Louisiana. It's kind of farther now, but Houston, Texas, uh, Lee, Michael Miller and a lot of the gang will be over there, but listen, she's swirly, I'm gonna tell you right now, she's dangerous. Hopefully you'll lay hands on, on people later with us. Do you mind get you a mic? Listen, I'm texting you like tornadoes going around the plate. She's super dangerous, filled with heaven. But, uh, pastor Jeff, her husband loved them dearly pastors, Randy and Lucy. Look, she's hammered right now. I'm telling you, she's dangerous. So, um, anyway, so a couple of quick announcements and we'll jump in the word together and just go for it. Let the Holy spirit move. But, um, what I was saying earlier is if you need healing in your bodies, listen, it doesn't matter how long you've had it, how big the mountain seems the blood of Jesus is all powerful. I've been seeing healings and miracles. He does it. We just kind of do the laying on of the hands. But, um, acts 10 38 said Jesus went about doing good healing all that were oppressed of the devil. So I want to encourage you, whatever it is, go ahead and just let it, unless you just want to hang on to it, but you know what I'm saying tonight we could pray for you and you'd be healed. Um, so quick announcement. Um, we have a two year Bible college school of ministry students yell and wave at the, yeah. Oh, wow. And, uh, listen, man, they're a radical bunch. They keep you on your toes. Most of them here, God clearer than me. I mean, just deep in the Lord. And, um, we're really excited to see what the Lord's doing in the earth. And we just, we've been doing schools for quite some time, um, online and such 2015, but we started this two year school of ministry a year ago. So we're, we're into our second year and it's a hybrid model online and in person. And, um, right now we're at like 360 something from 22 countries. They're all over the place. Bunch in, in person. And I want to encourage you now, now that we're doing both the model just kind of unlocked where you can jump in every trimester. So if you want to join us January, you can jump right in graduation in two years, graduation ordination, which you basically come up these steps. We hand you an envelope official diploma ordination, but then we pray you don't really make it down those steps. Impartations big, you just get hit with the power and then we just send you somewhere in the earth that wherever you want to stay here with us. Um, and then there's a third year. It's looking like we're going to tack on to it, but, um, and that's a super fun. Maybe tomorrow morning we'll show you pictures. We had a big blowout here last night. It was fun. Um, so that love for you to join us. Um, our church community will be starting at the head of the year. If you guys, a lot of people are moving and already involved and, and, um, all that fun stuff, I'm getting called pastor already. I'm like, what is that? And, uh, so we're working on that, but so that'll be, um, January. Oh yeah. And then I want to take up a quick offering. If you feel so led to give, if you want to bring up the offering best, he's won't eat up a lot of your time. Um, do you have offering envelopes that should be out there? Okay. Yeah. And, um, if you want to give checks may payable to bridal glory international. Look, we got the fancy texts to give. Online that do you write checks anymore? Who writes checks? Go ahead and be honest. Come on, Mary. That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. Keep it old school. But who loves to get behind the check writers in the grocery store? No one that's unacceptable. So anyway, um, yeah, so we'll pray and, uh, I'll tell you what, I'll show you the photos while you write out checks and things like this, we'll do that. If our team's ready, we'll do, uh, the smiling photo first and you pray about what you want to give. I'm not going to sit here and do a big, big money teaching or nothing. But, um, if we have the photo first from our fellowship Friday, yeah, here we go. Look at these beautiful, handsome faces. Yeah. These are who are in person. Yeah. I had to do a TV shoot right before. So I'm the odd ball with like a sport coat at fellowship Friday. Super awkward. But, um, and then go to that, go to the silly one. If they have it, am I in the way? Can y'all yeah, yeah, yeah. Look at Trey getting hit by the power of God over here. That's due to my son learning the anointing. Chris Gentry, me and Tommy always go with the no weapon formed with will prosper. Keep it biblical. Look at Demetria, the one and only with the glory hair. Anyway, it's a lot of fun. So that's the last Friday of every month. Uh, we just eat. I don't even know. Fellowship. Super important community keeping it light. Sometimes I'm learning look more on this hour. I just turned, well, not just, but 43 in March in the things that matter are becoming more real to me, the things that really matter. I'm just simplifying life, cutting things out. I'm starting to realize it really matters, especially in this hour that we go deep, deep in the Lord, deep in his word, like never before. And deep in the community, the Lord has you with the body of Christ. These two things really matter right now. Going deep with the bride, deep in him, and then kind of let the chips fall out where they do it. And, um, so that's good, but yeah, we'll pray quick. I think that was all the, um, announcements and then take up an offering would jump on the word with you guys. So just focus on the Lord. Jesus. We love you. Thank you for your mighty presence. Thank you. Holy spirit. I pray even how you'd bless each and every one financially. Do, do, do what you do work miraculous financial miracles in lives. Be glorified. We pray in Jesus name. Amen. Awesome. They have two baskets up here if you want to give, and I think in the balcony and then we'll get started. Man, that was so good. Oh yeah. That was the other announcement y'all can keep coming or whatever. Um, so the end of November, um, we will, we will have Savannah. What's up guys? How are you? Um, the end of November, I forgot a bunch of stuff. Now it's coming to me. So we're starting a corporate fast November 2nd. If you want to join us, those are never mandatory. How many of you know, fasting super healthy and biblical though? I mean, nowadays we need a folks that are deep in the word. I'm kind of like, let's go old school with it. Fast pray, do the word, you know? And, um, so we're jumping into a 21 day on November 2nd through the 22nd. Cause you got to break it before Thanksgiving. That's just wisdom. And, uh, so our entire like ministry academy students, a bunch of jumping in and want to invite you into that. If you feel led, however, the Lord would guide you in that for breakthrough revelation, look, man, Daniel chapter 10, you see Daniel go into one of these Daniel one and 10, and he goes into these right here and it unlocked revelation like never before. Sometimes. How many of you know, sometimes you have the ability, but not the know-how and you see even the seven attributes of the spirit of God and Isaiah 11, most of them are understanding revelation, knowledge council, and sometimes these type fastings, it's really just posturing yourself onto the Lord. They unlock revelation and boy, it's like all of a sudden, how did I not see that before light bulb goes off. And I believe many of you will encounter the Lord in a fresh way in that with us. And yeah, end of November, we're doing another fellowship Friday for the students, which is black Friday. So if you love the sales and all just go do it and we'll catch you later or something. Um, but it's on black Friday and then we'll have a glory nights that weekend too. Yeah. So a lot of people like to plan around the whole weekend and I know some of you might not be able to make it because of Thanksgiving and totally cool. Oh, that's what we're going to try and do. The s'mores we've been trying to make it work. Cause the land out there just grants it or a bass pond. I mean, I need one or the other. We gotta, we gotta figure it out. And, uh, but this last night was a little bit wet, not quite chilly enough. We weren't trying to sweat around a bonfire and, um, but the end of November, we're going to try and do s'mores and just blow it out in the glory, get some guitars out there under the stars and just go for heaven and get fat on some s'mores, you know? So, um, yes, that'd be good. So fellowship Friday glory nights in November and that, that was it. So, all right, I'll jump in. Won't keep you guys long at all. Thank you so much, man. My man, Brent, give it up for him. Um, so yeah, I'll start with this. I had a dream back in 2017 that, that most understood to be a Jubilee year, you know, Jubilee's every 50 years, it's biblical and all this. And, um, and it just so happened, 2017, I went into this dream, very mysterious to me, uh, you know, I don't still claim to like have it all figured out, but it was strange enough. All I know is I heard in this dream, crystal clear, and I'm not a real end times guy that our Academy knows this. Um, I believe it, it's in the word, but I don't mean it. I don't camp out there a lot. I just preach Jesus, the word, fall in love with him. And, you know, and you figure out how many, you know, sometimes it's best. We major on the majors, minor on the minors, you know, I'm just not about splitting, you know, all this. And, uh, but nevertheless, I went into this dream where I heard clear as day. We have one more Jubilee in 2017 and I saw there was other details all in it, but the 144,000 out of revelation, that company was mentioned in there in this dream, there was an emphasis on them. That's all. And I was like, I don't know anything about them. Still didn't look into it a whole lot until, um, just recently I was in, uh, in the word, spending time with the Lord. And I felt that, you know, the Holy spirit say, check them out again. I need you to look at that company. And I said, Lord, I don't remember what I think I was in second Kings. I'm all over the place. I just love the word. How do you know we need a fresh passion for the word of God? Listen, look, if you don't love it, just make yourself, just start reading it and you'll fall in love with it. Just ask God, like, give me Colossians 3 16. Paul writes, let the word of Christ dwell in you richly. I mean, we need to be just overflowing with this thing. And sometimes it looks as simple as just shutting off the other voices, social media platforms, the televisions, whatever it may be, and just dive in this book. Old new covenant. Proverbs is one for every day. I mean, just fall in love with the word again. And so I'm over in Kings or something, just loving the story and Hezekiah and the whole shadows getting moved back by Isaiah and all this. And so the Lord's like, look back up on that company. And, uh, I was like, Lord, I don't remember where that's at. And instantly came to him revelation 14. And have you ever done this? I was like, that was my thoughts. That wasn't. Yeah. And then I looked, I'm like, no way. It's really, there's a word of knowledge. You know, I'm like that in the prophetic a lot. Just to be honest with you. I'm like, I see this and I'm like, does that make sense to praise God? You know, I'm trying, I'm checking it out and I'm feeling it up. And, um, so anyway, sure enough, they're there. And what I'm mainly, I may touch on some fun stuff, you know, I've been studying. There's some really intriguing, mysterious stuff there with this group that I think is amazing, but again, not trying to, I'm not dogmatic on it by any means, definitely not trying to make it a doctrine, but there's these attributes about them that is beautiful that I'm seeing. And I feel like the Lord's looking forward in the bride in a reflected manner, like never before right now. And what you'll begin to see is like, man, this company is a little different. They're a little different and they're near the Lord's return and they're near him. So seven attributes never preached us before. So sorry if it's rusty, but just want to hit them and pray that we yield to it in a fresh way in this hour, because anymore, I don't know about you guys, but I'm just kind of, I just want him, uh, him pleased his word. I'm just not interested anymore in popular. Give me the harder stuff. The Lord's been on it. I don't care. Take up your cross, the narrow gate, whatever it is. I just want him. And I believe he's looking for a company that wants that right now. And look, if it's, if it hits a fat or it's popular, cool, but it's just not what we're after after him, they were singing it. And so anyway, this dream fit, we have one more Jubilee in 2017, not claiming to know when the Lord's going to return at all. The Bible was clear. It says nobody knows the day or the hour, but all I know is from that dream, it showed me we don't have two more. Does that make sense? Which would be a hundred years. It could be before a full Jubilee, a little over, but I don't feel like we have two more and again, not camping out there, but it just was clear. We got one more Jubilee when 2017 hit and something to do with this company. So recently the Lord started back in me to study them and just see some things that stood out. What's different about this group that the Lord loves so dear. He mentions them twice in revelation seven and revelation 14 right near the Lord's return. And even that I'm not going to get into too heavy because then you start getting people like pre and post-trib and all this stuff. I have my take on it, but I won't step on any toes on that, but I'll read it first. Talk from my heart. We'll keep you long. And, um, I think it's beautiful. I hope it just lands. How it did with me. Why don't y'all tell me I had this fuzz on my man and four K cameras will pick that and I'm he said YouTube's ruined. I'm teasing. Don't do so. So watch this, this company right here. First, uh, first verse you can follow if you want, but watch, I'll read it first and we'll, we'll see. It says, then I look, this is John book of revelation. Caught up in an experience. Then I looked and behold on Mount Zion stood the lamb. That's the narrative for the end times right there. You could stop there and camp out forever. It's the end time. That's it. But we got to keep going, but I'm telling you him high and lifted up. They sang it. Jesus, Jesus, Jesus. He he's elevated. He it's a single lie. It's him and him alone. And, uh, but then I looked and behold on Mount Zion stood the lamb, uh, and with him was this group, 144,000 who had his name and his father's name written on their foreheads. Um, and I heard a voice from heaven, like the roar of many waters and like the sound of loud thunder, the voice I heard was like the sound of harpists playing on their harps and they were singing a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and before the elders, no one could learn that song except 144,000 special company, man. Something about this group that the Lord's like, listen, I need them in my book and I got to show you some attributes about them that I need the end time bride to learn from and glean from and become like, which is like him. That's why they look like him because they're with him. You saw it right out of the gate. Then I looked and behold isolated, standing alone, the lamb, very next progression in the verse and with him, with him, 144,000 being with him right now in this hours, everything. So it is these who have not defiled themselves. Basically it says they were virgins, which I believe I'm going to figuratively hit these attributes, how it would apply to us. But, um, it says it is, uh, these who follow the lamb, wherever he goes. Listen, yielded us like you'd never seen obedience with the slightest whisper of his voice. Uh, these have been redeemed from mankind as first fruits for God and the lamb. And in their mouth, no lie was found for their blameless. Um, King James says no guile was super pure, no ulterior motives, no trying to build their name or fame. They're just with him. Wherever the lamb goes, that's my whole agenda. It's the whole reason for being. And I, I gotta be this way, man, because it's really what he wants. Again, you know, it's almost like we're Paul said, look, imitate me as I imitate Christ or follow me as I follow Christ. It's, they're another company and a super special. What I love is, um, Oh, I'm gonna get ahead of myself, but basically real quick, uh, interesting study about them is people teach and it has some pretty strong scriptural application. I'll say again, this is, I'm not dogmatic on it at all, but if you read in revelation seven, they're mentioned again, and it says there's 12 tribes. There are 12,000 groups of 12,000, sorry. From each 12th tribe of Israel, you do the math. It's 144,000. So there's, there's two clear attributes about them that are literal, uh, like the Jehovah's witnesses and people like that have totally botched this thing and made it real, real figurative. So if there's any in here, we love you get born again, but you know what I mean? Um, but, uh, but the Bible is clear. It says they're Jews. Okay. It says that they're Jews. They're from, I'm just gleaning from the attributes that Jesus loves dear. They're near him. Listen, if you read that progression slowly, it says there's the throne, the lamb standing on Mount Zion, right next in the progression around him for living creatures, outer little further out, 24 elders, and then them. And they're with him and they follow him wherever he goes. And, um, but the Bible is super clear in revelation seven. It says they are, uh, 12,000 from each 12th tribe of Israel, all Jews, all from Israel and, uh, and all males. They're all males. If you're reading revelation 14, it says are basically all virgins have never been, um, with, with women. It's a unique trait that it goes out of its way to highlight. So some teachings believe, again, this is just fun for a study on your own time. There's a lot of different stuff on it. Um, the Jehovah's witnesses believe that like, you have to be in that 144,000 to go to heaven. Problem is that their religion has like millions. It's like, okay, who's getting the good seats? You know what I mean? I don't know. It just doesn't work. There's a lot of holes in that thing. Doesn't work. I would jump ship fast. If I, if I, if I, I'm just saying that's my evangelistic tip to the Jehovah's witnesses and, uh, but anyway, and so, but it says this about them. So listen, this is just unique. It'll be cool. We'll see one day it's fun to study and think through, but they believe that, um, you remember back when Jesus was born that, uh, Herod knew of the prophetic word, how the King will come out of Bethlehem. You all remember that? Magi, they catch wind of it, the wise men, and they follow the star. They see it supernaturally. It lands over Jesus. They go in, bring Frank, Frankincense, all that stuff. Well, King Herod, before they left, he caught wind of it. Jealous and this, that, and the other, really the devil. And, um, he tells the Magi, he says, look, tell me where he's at. When you find him, I want to worship him too. You guys remember that a liar? So wise men like, yeah, we got you. They go, they find Jesus. And then God spoke to them in the night. You all remember it, warned them in a dream, said, don't go back to Herod. Go back to your hometown, go another route. And the Bible, if you read closely, it says right when the wise man left the an angel of the Lord came in a dream immediately to Joseph and says, y'all got to get out of here because the Lord knew that soon as the wise men don't come back to Herod, Herod's coming. You all remember that the timing of God is perfect. He's he'll wait right up to the end and then bam. And he'll, he'll stiff arm. And so the angel says, go to Egypt, take baby Jesus over to Egypt. If you study it out, which that then fulfilled another prophecy where, you know, God prophesied, uh, my son will come out of Egypt. Which is interesting because he went over into the land where all the other newborns were, were taken out for Moses. Remember from Pharaoh, it's that same spirit. And, um, so King Herod catches wind of it. Wise men totally juked him. He sends people over. If you read close to it says to, to Bethlehem and the entire surrounding region to, uh, take out all two year old males only and under, listen where the thing's going. It's crazy if it is. But again, their attributes are what I'm after and it's all in the tribes are all Jews in that, in that, that, uh, lane over there, tribes of Israel. And, um, some people study and they go Bethlehem only, and they keep the numbers pretty low. But the Coptics, I believe they've run the numbers up to right around 144,000. So it's just going to be a mysterious group. When we see them one day they're virgins. Oh, the Bible says who they had been redeemed from the earth, meaning purchase and bought from it. The Bible also says, I read it to you. We just probably didn't slow down there. We will in a second, but it, it calls them first fruits. I'll read it for you real quick. It says they have been redeemed. The verse earlier says from the earth purchased that word. If you started out and he's bought from, then again, it says redeemed from mankind as first fruits for God and the lamb. The only other time in the, in scripture, you really see the word first fruits using connection to a people or a person is Jesus when he died and rose again. Other than that, it has to do with harvest and that from the soil is first roots before God, you know, all this. So in first Corinthians 15, it talks about Jesus. He died. And when he rose again, it was as of first fruits, plural to God. And this, the only other group is super unique. It calls them first fruits of God. So Herod goes out, takes all the two year olds. Jesus is ducking out over in Egypt by word of the Lord through an angel from, from his dad, Ryan, what is up, bro? How are you, man? Dude, miss you. You look great. Wow. We go way back. Anyway, sorry. I'm all over the place. Hey, that's the man of God right there. I'll never forget. We were down, I was still in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and you're up in Dawsonville now, right? Yeah. He's been burning ever since I knew him, man. He just got lit up down in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He came up to me and said, Brian, the school he was in, that was awesome. Honor them big time. We both do, but you could tell the Lord was tugging on him in a different way. And he goes, he goes, look, they're telling me. Go for souls and hit the streets. He said, but I just want to be with Jesus, man. He was burning for the secret place. I'm like, you better do it, man. Lock up. You got your whole life to win souls. When, when heaven pulls you to a place and he did too, you better yield. He did it with me for about a year. It was like a monk. My parents thought I lost my marbles and, but it was him. I couldn't, I was in the grocery store like, man, I just need Jesus ministry. What do you mean on the radar? I just want him. And, uh, you know, I'm getting off on a whole nother thing, but the Bible says he, he drew them to be with him. Then he sent them out. Acts four 13, Peter, John, full of power. The religious hierarchy of the day are like, who are these ordinary common men? They're not studied and approved like we are, but there's something different about them, authority, power. There's something on them is they're just different. If you read further acts 14, it says the light bulb went off. BSV, Brian standard version. Light bulb went off and they're like, oh, they've been with Jesus. That's what's different about them. I knew it. They've been with him. And so sure enough, he's been burning ever since. And so, um, anyway, good to see you, man. 144,000 attributes on you. So Herod sends, you know, they take out all the two year old and, uh, younger. It says the entire region. Oh, and you see it prophesied in Jeremiah 31. It's a big deal. It's in scripture. Jeremiah prophesies it way before it's time. He says there was a cry in Ramah 31, 15. If you read closely, Rachel, basically her children have been taken out. She can't be consoled. You all remember that? But it says, Ramah, Ramah is pretty far from Bethlehem. It was that entire region. He took out two year old and under. And can you imagine if you think about it, Jesus came back and grew up with nobody, his age group in his area. I mean, I was just picturing like my mind, like he's in childcare of the day with his red truck and like, man, where's my book? You know, they're all older. I don't, nobody's my age. And, uh, but listen, what the prophecy does again, this is just exciting. We'll see one day I'm going to hit more of the attributes, but Matthew chapter two talks about Herod fulfilling that prophecy when he took out the two year old males, all males and under in threat of the King and Jeremiah. If you go back to Jeremiah and read that passage, though, in verse 15, it talks about, she weeps because the children of Rachel are taken out. But if you go to 16, Jeremiah through the word of the Lord says, weep no more. No, just hide, hold your tears. No need to mourn because they'll come back to the land of the enemy and back to the land that they got taken out at. And this is who a lot of people believe with first fruits. When Jesus got rose again, he took them redeemed from the earth to be brought back and says they were set apart without sin, blameless. And a lot of people believe these 144,000 males are the tribes of Israel. Like, listen to me and we'll see. I'm not, I'm not dogmatic on it at all. It's, it's an interesting study though. It's got a lot of solid scriptural attachments, but how many of you know, every time the devil thinks he got you, he always gets checkmated by God always. So, I mean, yeah, I would say be encouraged when the enemy starts playing his hand, but yeah, great move, man. You try another one, you know, not really, but you seek the Lord and he always dominates, like, you know what I mean? He just, he's a big loser. I mean, he knows it and I'm going to take out Steven full of power face glowing like an angel. The Lord's like, yeah, that's cool. I'm going to take Saul then. Immediately took the Saul who the coat went to, to take out Steven. He just took him then. He's like, okay, you took a pawn. I took your King. And then Saul writes half of the what a new Testament, two third of the epistles. Same thing. So Jesus has got his little truck in, you know, childcare. Like we'll be back me and my crew, me and my boys. I, I didn't get to play with him, but you know. And they're going to be a pure people in this, this attribute about them. I love, and I'm, I say it, it should be, uh, you know, applicable to all of us. So watch this. I just want to, um, hit these attributes probably set in by the spirit. And, uh, and then we'll, we'll jump into ministry. Let the Holy spirit move, but watch this. I want to slow down. Then I looked and behold on Mount Zion stood the lamb. This speaks of a single focus, one true love. You know, I touched on it already, but the, the lamb standing on the mountain, it's him and him alone, then the progression of all. So this end time company, they're going to have a single focus. It's him and him alone. It's not the lamb. And it's not all this other stuff. And we're going to touch on it more in a second. It's very ironic that it's that nature of Jesus here, the lamb. It wasn't, then I looked and behold the lion or the shepherd or the King or the bridegroom, it was the lamb. And they, and listen, you embody what you behold and you see these, these people are so lowly and filled with humility and pliability and obedience. And that's what I believe that I was looking for in the bride. And, uh, but it says in with him very next verse with him. That's number two. They're with him. We've got to be with Jesus. You know, he's gotta be our single focus. It's basically the Matthew 25 wise virgins with oil. They had a single focus and they're the last hour narrative. We know it, but they have, there is no other side roads. Read it in Matthew 25, 10 virgins, five wives, five foolish, the five wives with extra oil. Where are they going to find the bridegroom? There is no other mission. It's him. There's no side roads. There's no ulterior motives. There's no building my name or my kingdom. I need him. I don't care what I need him. He it's him. It's the lamb on the mountain. Him and their focus in this hour. I'm telling you, it's going to be him. It's super single focused. Not that we're not open and we get all of what God's doing, the complexity of the kingdom we teach and train, make disciples. We get it, but you guys know what I mean? The foundation, what drives you is him. I get up in the morning, I need him. And then from there we love our neighbor and whatever it looks like, but I need him. And so this company, it's like, this is the narrative. He says, then I looked, which is, I looked, I saw, and I behold, I touched on this recently in class. You see, John hit it in first John one, one. He was a possessed man, John. I heard the other day, I was listening to Leonard Ravenhill. How many of you guys know of Leonard Ravenhill? Um, love him. I would encourage you guys. Sometimes just go back to the old school new as well. I just love any spout where the glory is pouring out. I mean, I'll drink from anything. I don't care what it is. I'm just hungry. You know, I want him. And so I was listening to Leonard Ravenhill. He was an old revivalist that Steve Hill came out of Keith green, Dr. Brown. You can look at people's how many are you can look wisdom proves itself by its fruit. And if you look, you know, you can see people in a moment, but when you see what's following them, you can tell real quick and their children and things like this. And so Leonard Ravenhill, I've never heard it before, but I loved it. He said he likened Matthew, Mark, and Luke, the gospels to the outer courts, then the gospel of John to the inner courts, then John 17 to the Holy of Holies. Beautiful. Never heard that before. John 17 three said, this is eternal life that they may know you. It's, it's all there. I'm gonna get off on a thing, but, but, uh, so these people, they're just possessed with knowing him flipping three, Paul's like, listen, it's all trash compared to knowing him. This is what we're doing here. This is the goal. He is the X on the treasure map. There's no other one. There's no other treasure out there. And so, um, uh, they're with him next. It says, uh, who had his name in his father's name written on their foreheads. Revelation seven says an angel actually seals them on their foreheads. You flip to 14 and what that seal is, is the name of the father and the lamb. So this is the third attribute of this company, which again, I'm pulling from. I'm like doing the whole, okay, I see this company. They're with him. They're near him. They're so precious to the Lord. The whole follow Paul as he follows Christ. You guys tracking with me? We want to be like Jesus. I'm not trying to say like, you know, y'all leave here. Like Brian started some new cold. We're all supposed to, you know, I'm just, you know, and, uh, but so the, the name of the father and the song on the forehead sealed by it is the, I, your, I, the identity in this last hour of the, of the company, the bride, I believe is going to be so sealed by him and him alone, his name, no other identity, so rooted in him, his word so much so that you bear his name. You guys tracking with me? It's one thing to know Christian cliche, but you're like, no, no, I know that this kind, it's them again. Great. The devil's like, it's them again. They're so solid in their identity. They're, they're not insecure. They don't care what you say about them. Words fall off. They don't fear man. They don't feel the world. They don't, they don't care about life or death. They want him. You know what I mean? They're sealed. That's how those people are just possessed. And what's funny is right before and after this passage, it actually talks about the marking of the beast for the other side, which is where the forehead, but the forehead of this company, they're sealed by his name. Your identity is found in him, you know? And so that's the third attribute. She got some Kleenex. Um, number four. So appreciate it, man. Double portion, baby. So, so appreciate it, man. Um, but number four, this is a big one, man. Uh, and, and I want to know it more, you know, I want myself yielded to it more, but watch this fourth one. Uh, so you have the, the lamb standing alone, isolated. He's the focal point you have with him. You we've got to be with him abiding. Psalm 91 is useless if we don't dwell in him. People don't realize there's verse one, nine, and 14 that are the hinge pins for the door that Psalm 91 swings on. You can have the bumper sticker if you want, but it says he who dwells in the secret place of the most high, that word dwell there means, and I love bumper stickers. Don't, you know, it's awesome. But that word dwell there means to retire, literally just reside, Mary, the secret place. Um, and it's again in, in a verse nine and 14. So with him identity solely in his word and in him, no other identity. How many of you know, if, if your identity is off, I mean, it's, it's a rough walk. You know, it's like a key. It doesn't fit in the chamber. So watch this next one. And I heard a voice from heaven, like the roar of many waters. Listen, when I read this, I was like, Oh, that's Jesus. You guys remember who else has the voice of many waters? Jesus. It's in, um, Ezekiel 32 and revelation one. It talks about Jesus has the voice of many waters, but you keep reading and this is their voice. It's the only scriptural precedent I can find where they sat. These worshipers are here. Sound just like him. They're so near him. They sound like him. Listen, man, that's all I'm stoked. I believe, uh, Chris is somewhere like a prototype. I believe there's worshipers coming in the earth that are so near him. If you start to look, watch this, I need to read the verse. Okay. And I heard a voice from heaven, like the roar of many waters and like the sound of loud thunder, the voice I heard was like the sound of harpists playing on their harps and they were singing a new song before the throne. See, it's to him before the throne. And then it goes out further in the parameter before the four living creatures and before the elders, watch this. No one could learn that song except 144,000. They've been redeemed from the earth. I believe really, we've had it prophesied over this house. I pray it be so, but there's worshipers coming. I was reminded that I saw vision, um, not too, too long ago in prayer, not trying to see it at all, but I got caught up in this like heavenly realm. And I saw this worship leader. They're amazing. They're very not, not your normal anyway, but they had this type of mysterious staff and swung it into this like key lock in heaven and it hit and unlocked. And this, this barrier opened up in myriads of angels got loosened to the earth and I knew right away, there's worshipers that are about to sing new songs from a heavenly realm because they're so near him and with him. It sounds just like him. They're going to start unlocking heaven. That's going to hit the globe. Like we've never seen. I'm telling you it's going to shift flipping cities. Um, I'm stoked for it, but I believe this attribute that there's single focus with him, your entire identity is the word, no mixture and worship worshipers adoration. Like we've never seen that are so with him. They sound like him. That's crazy. You ever seen married couples? Like after a while, you're like, man, they look just alike. They wear the same glasses. Do you know what I'm talking about? You can't not become like what you hang around. And it's like that. They're so with him. It says they go wherever the lamb goes. They're just so in sync with them. And that they even start to sound like him. This is the only, I was blown away. I said, hold on. They have the voice of many waters. That's your voice, Jesus. There's so no, there's no so near him. Sorry. They, they sing what, what sounds like him. Uh, remember Bob Gladstone. He'll be with us next week. He's insane. He was a Dean of our Bible college at the Brownsville Revival. He, um, he used to say the only thing that pleases God is what God does himself. Of course, in and through you, but that's why you see as well at the end, the spirit in the bride say come it's the spirit of God calling out to the son of God. You see what I'm saying? It's that spirit cry. It's the same frequency. So that worship, I believe is going to sound, there's going to be these new songs that only this type company can learn. Does that make sense? I believe others will sing it. It won't have the same sauce on it. If you will. It's like, no, they knew the words and they learned the chords with this other company. They know it. Cause they're, they're near. Does that make sense? And it's going to unlock stuff. And it's like, what's the roar? There's a different tone. Anyway. Um, the next one, purity, it says no guile found within them. Blameless. It says they're blameless. Again, we know if they got caught up like that and redeemed from the earth, praise God, but a level of purity we've not yet seen legalism. No, but a set apart company that are just listen, detached from the world. It's system, no mixture. Um, number six, it says, uh, ah, it is these who follow the lamb, wherever he goes, we read this a second ago. So 100% obedience and yieldedness, you know, a lot of people can talk and I've been guilty of this plenty, so I get it, but a lot of people, I don't know if you've seen this, the lingo of intimacy and all this is becoming almost popular in the church, but true love scripturally by scriptural standards is only matched by the level of obedience and yieldedness. You know, Jesus says, you know, if you love me, you'll obey my commands. John says, look, if they claim to know you, but don't obey you, their lies, your level of obedience shows the love. And that's how they, where they're like, wherever the lamb goes, that's where we're going, but it's kind of going into persecuted times. I don't care. It's just wherever he goes, I'm with him. It's easy. It's, it's glorious. It's blessed. It's tough. Who cares? It's the narrow gate. You know, it's the cross. Thank God. Jesus is there. I need the lamb, the lamb, the lamb, the lamb. I don't care where he goes. I don't even need to know why he's there. He's there. And this is what we need to know. It's the lamb, not the King. You listen to lions, easy to follow the lamb. He goes straight to the slaughter. The lambs are lowly one. That's why it's the lamb. And he's the one to the anyway, but, but it's this company that's last hour. They're dead to themselves. They don't care what the cost is. It's not even a cost because it's him. And I just want this on me, man. I want it. And, uh, wherever, wherever he goes, no questions asked, whatever the cost, you know, Moses, I was in it the other day. Exodus 33. He's like, look, if your glory doesn't go with us, I'm good. I got to hang this thing up. We need you. You're everything. You're the whole reason we live and walk and have our being. Peter did the same thing when Jesus gave a costly message. Remember he cut down the crowds. They were growing by the droves because of the supernatural. Jesus turned. He's like, eat my flesh, drink my blood. That was not secret friendly. That's not how you grow a church. And, uh, then he turns, you know, to the disciples, what y'all going to do boys. And Peter's like, you have the words of eternal life. Like you are the bread of life. There is no plan B just wherever the lamb goes, you know? And, uh, so this is, these are key attributes that pray gets on us. 100% obedience yieldedness. Will you make mistakes? Oh yeah. I've made plenty of men produce all kinds of Ishmael's thought it was the Lord. He's like, yeah, great job. I've never told you to do that, you know? Um, but maybe we yield more and more and be such a lowly people. That was the next and final one. He touched on seven humility and lowliness. Are you hearing these attributes? There's nothing gifted or profound or wow about them. They were the most powerful preachers. Although they're gunners a second after, if you see an angel flies through the sky, it's a whole nother sermon, but, but not gifted, not charisma. Although I love that if you got it and we love the gifts, look, Paul says earnestly covered the gifts eagerly desire that you may prophesy. You see it. We want to see Jesus glorified on all facets, but what the Lord goes out of his way to highlight is humility, lowliness, 100% obedience, purity, worship so deep and rich and true and near him. They sound just like him. Like that's what he's looking for in this company. Does it make sense to you guys? And it's, it's not what the world's going to look for. They're going to be, they're going to look right over a group like this. Look right over you. You're like, man, it just, but so secure in him and the Lord's going to elevate them, look, they're going to come out of the woodworks, carrying authority, power. And, uh, so yeah, humility, lowliness, uh, they're not only with the lamb, but they follow the lamb wherever he goes. And, uh, and also the unique attribute about Jesus as the lamb is he removes sin. That's why that purity is there. John says, behold, the lion who, no behold, the lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. So you start hanging around with the lamb and sins gotta go. Cause you're just, it's just him. It's like him. He's the one that opens the seals, you know? And so, um, so it's just beautiful. If you guys want to go and stand, told you want to keep you long and we'll pray. Thank you, Lord. Yeah. So let's just begin to focus on the Lord. I want to pray corporately, you know, that the Holy spirit would just tenderize our hearts, um, make us more of a company like him and just possess us. That's all we'd be branded and just be something different about us. Something different, more near him. So yeah, just begin to look into his face, you know, go ahead and behold the lamp, look and behold the lamp who stands alone on Mount Zion. I'm Christmas summer. Do you guys mind coming? Please. If you can, no, no rush. Thank you, Lord. Glorious lamb of God. Yeah. Even now, why don't you just put your hand on your heart? I'm going to pray corporately and just receive. I want to encourage you, expect them to touch you right now. Transform us. Thank you, Lord. Yeah. Even now, Lord Jesus, I pray that you transform us into your likeness. Be lifted up. Oh, lamb of God. On this last hour, lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. Oh, lowly one, perfect humility, beauty, holiness. You're all together. Lovely. Be glorified in our life, be lifted up, make us a single focused people, a single eye, wise virgins with extra oil, you and you alone, thank you for greater humility. Let us yield unto your likeness like never before. Humble people, lowly. Super secure and confident in him, but humble, true humility, obedience. Right now. I pray for a yielded ones. No matter the cost, wherever the lamb goes, that's where we go. We don't even ask questions. Wherever you go that we'd be with you. There was a lamb standing and with him, 145,000 people. 24,000 people would always see the lamb and be like, well, you're with him too. There, there you are. You're always with him. And Lord, you'd make us those worshipers. That company that would unlock heavenly melodies that have never been heard or sung that certain companies can't even learn because of the lack of proximity to you. Unlock the roar of many waters. Your voice through us, back to you. Brand us. I pray come. Holy spirit. That's the Mambo store and day bonds on Sydney. Thank you, Lord. Just continue to focus on the Lord. Maybe you could dim the house lights a little bit. And, um, if you want prayer, I want to invite you to come. You can come up front or down the aisles on the walls and spread out. We'd love to lay hands on you guys as we begin to just get lost in him. Oh, thanks man. Appreciate it. Thank you, Lord. Yeah. And as Chris and summer worship, just see him get lost in his presence. We're going to pray. Yeah. Show most day. I'm on that. I'm gross. Don't know. Most of mine. Those day young Don D there it is. Just get lost in him. Yep. Just begin to see Jesus and Jesus alone. You must demand it. Jesus. Wow. Wow.

Brian Guerin (birth year unknown–present). Brian Guerin is an American pastor, author, and founder of Bridal Glory International and Ascend Church in Atlanta, Georgia. Raised in a non-religious home, he became a Christian in college after a profound spiritual experience he described as a divine encounter with a falcon, which ignited his pursuit of intimacy with God. Guerin serves as the senior leader of Ascend Church, where his preaching emphasizes a deep relationship with Jesus, the power of God’s presence, and preparing believers for Christ’s return. He founded Ascend Academy, a ministry school, and travels globally, speaking at conferences and on platforms like TBN and GOD-TV, often highlighting signs, wonders, and prophetic insights. His books, including God of Wonders: Experiencing God’s Voice Through Signs, Wonders, and Miracles, To Know Him: Discovering Experiential Intimacy with God, The Altar: Preparing for the Return of Jesus Christ, and Divine Encounter, focus on spiritual growth and encountering God. Known for sermons like “Mary’s at His Feet” and “The Secret Place,” he encourages distraction-free prayer and devotion, drawing from Scriptures like Luke 10:41–42 and Matthew 6:6. Guerin’s ministry seeks to draw the Church into closeness with Christ, which he calls the “highest prize in life.” He said, “Your heart can burn, and you still not know Him.”
