In this sermon, the preacher emphasizes the importance of having joy and confidence in one's Christian life. He encourages those who may be doubting their readiness for heaven to come forward and ask Jesus to take away their fear and doubts. The preacher then shifts to discussing future events, starting with Jesus putting a stop to time and ushering in eternity. He describes time as a small piece in the larger circle of eternity and explains that God has given humanity this little space to repent. The sermon concludes with the preacher highlighting the promise of believers being changed in the twinkling of an eye and being gathered together by angels from all nations.

I've been seeking the Lord on this and praying all day. In a former message a number of years ago, I touched on what I want to touch tonight, and some of you may recognize some of these points, but I want to talk about a new world that's coming, a whole new world that's coming. Usually we talk about the coming of Jesus and all the signs that point up to it, but I want to talk to you about the things that are going to happen after Jesus comes. There's a whole new world, and a lot of new converts, since I dealt on this subject a number of months ago, have no concept. They hear about the coming of the Lord, but what happens after that? There's a whole new world. We sing about some of these things, but we don't know it, but I'm going to go through the scriptures tonight and remind you of these things. Amen. Let's pray. Heavenly Father, I pray for your touch. Thank you for the Holy Spirit that's been evident, the manifest presence of Jesus in this church tonight. Hallelujah. Lord, we're so glad to be in your presence. It's good to be here. It's refreshing to be here, Lord. It's life-giving to be here. Lord, one of these days we're going to leave. We are going home. Hallelujah. Lord, this is not our world. This is not our place. We're just passing through. We are headed for redemption. We've got a whole new world that God has created for us. Lord, excite us about it tonight. Give us joy as we anticipate that one of these days, soon and very soon, we're going into the new world. Hallelujah. Whet our appetites with it, Lord, and with this motivate us to seek you and be holy and righteous in our daily walk, I pray. Quicken me now as we go into your word, I pray, in Jesus' name. Amen. There are many, many Christians who don't know the chain of events that are going to happen after Jesus comes. And I want to go through this chain of events with you and remind you. And I pray that this time, if you've heard any of this from any preacher, these things need to be indelibly stamped in your heart. They need to go deep inside your heart so you rejoice over them, so that when you get down or depressed, the devil can't defeat you. You can just say, well, I'm not going to be here long anyhow. This is not where I belong. I'm looking for a city whose builder and maker is God. I want to give you an outline of these eternal events as I see them and as many of our forefathers saw them. And this is nothing unusual about it. It's the evangelical approach to interpretation of future events. First thing that we have on the agenda, and everybody knows it, Jesus is going to suddenly put a stop to time. The Bible said time shall be no more. Picture eternity as a big circle, like a hula hoop, a big circle. Time is this little piece that's cut off of that. It's just a little piece. In fact, the Bible said God gave man space to repent. Time is that little space in this great circle. And then God's going to remove that little thing and put it back together, and this endless circle called eternity goes back together again. You and I have been given this little space to repent. Time, I don't care how long you conceive it to be, it's a very short time in comparison to eternity. The Bible says, and I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven. He set his right foot upon the sea, his left foot upon the earth, and he cried with a loud voice as he lifted up his hand to heaven. And he swore by him that liveth forever and ever that there should be time no longer. The mystery of God shall be finished, and he hath declared it to his servants the prophets. An angel is going to come and set his foot on the sea and the land and raise his voice in his hands and say, Time is ended. Time shall be no more. Hallelujah. Jesus is going to say, My priesthood has been finished. No longer a priest. I've done all that I've been called to do. He's going to put on his judge's robes. He's going to take off his priestly robes and put on his judge's robes. Hallelujah. My day, he says, of intercession is all over. The last believer has been sealed. The last prophecy has been given. The last invitation has come and gone. The last church service has been conducted. It's all over. The last person has gotten right with God. The last outpouring of the Holy Spirit. It is all finished. Time shall be no more. The Bible says there's an angel, the seventh angel in fact, is going to come with a mighty shout. The kingdoms of this world he's going to proclaim have now become the kingdoms of our Lord and his Christ and he shall reign forever and ever. The Lord himself then shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God. Hallelujah. Imagine the shouting in heaven when all the angels suddenly are informed that he's coming to earth. He's coming for his bride. Can you imagine the shouting of the angels and the rejoicing of the heavenly host? The seventh angel sounded. There were great voices in heaven. These great voices have to do with the revelation that time has ended and now all the kingdoms of the world are going to come under his jurisdiction. Hallelujah. This is the day that's been longed for. This is the day that their Christ is going to be vindicated. Hallelujah. It's not only the end of time, but it's the end of the power of the enemy. All the Lord's enemies are going to be brought under submission. You know, I've preached a lot about the conditions of the world and we've talked about packed up homosexuals who want more power. We've talked about the forces of abortion. We've talked about the liberal forces and those who've driven prayer out of our schools. We've talked about all of these principalities and powers that have risen trying to take authority. But, folks, on this day, it is all over. It is ended. All the kingdoms of the world now become the kingdoms of our Christ in his glory. The Father is going to say to his Son, Go now, put on your royal robe and appear in your glory. Empty the heavens of all the glorious spirits. Sit on your judgment seat. Come, prepare for judgment. The time has come. The time that's in the Father's hand has been announced. Hallelujah. After the pronouncement by the angel that times will be no more, that the end of all things has come. Secondly, the Bible said he's going to descend out of heaven. He's going to sit upon his imperial judgment throne, his judgment seat. And he's coming in a cloud. And the Bible said he's coming with the retinue out of heaven. He's coming with the four and twenty beasts, the elders. He's coming with the seraphims and all of the angels, the thousands upon thousands of those dressed in white. He's coming with all of the hosts of heaven, the scripture says. Behold, the Lord's going to come with mighty angels. Behold, the Lord is coming with ten thousands of his saints to execute judgment. Thousands and thousands shall minister unto him. Ten thousand times, ten thousand shall stand before him. And the Son of Man shall come in his glory and all his holy angels with him. Now, as he ascends from his eternal abode, the Bible said there's going to be a great fire. It's a fiery appearance. You know that even a spaceship, when it comes into the atmosphere, has to have a special shield or it would burn up immediately. It would flash into ashes. And can you imagine when he approaches the atmosphere of this earth and the whole world is going to see him, the Bible says, when he comes? You say, well, how could the whole world see him because the sun shines on this side and it's dark on this side of the earth, different time zones. How can every time zone see him coming? Well, folks, if Jesus in his glorified body can walk through walls, he can make this whole earth transparent. In fact, he's coming with such a brilliance that the sun and the moon, it says, refuse to shine. And what that means that in comparison to the brightness of his coming, those are just dim bulbs compared to the glory of the shining. He's going to cover the heavens and the earth with his glory, this mighty shining host with all the shining angels with him. Mankind's first view of him is going to be in the clouds, a cloud of glory. Then shall appear the sight of the Son of Man in heaven. They shall see the Son of Man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. Behold, he's coming in clouds. In every eye shall see him. In day also it's pierced him. They shall see the Son of Man coming in the clouds and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn. What tribes? That's not just the tribes of the islands of the sea, not un-evangelized tribes in themselves. There's going to be the homosexual tribe. There's going to be the abortion tribe. There's going to be the mockers tribe. There's going to be the scoffers tribe. All of these tribes of the earth that have gathered around their particular sins and mocked and ridiculed and crucified him afresh, they're all going to mourn when they see him coming, the Bible says. Hallelujah. The sun and the moon shall refuse to shine because of the brightness of his coming, the Scripture says. Sinners will cry, the Bible says, for the rocks and the mountains to fall on them, to hide them from the face of him that sits on the throne. They're going to cry, hide me. They're not going to be able to look at the face of his coming. Demons will flee in terror. Mockers and scoffers will fall like dead men before this vision. Those who forsook him, can you imagine the terror of the backslider? Those who heard the Gospel, those who turned their backs on him, what a day, especially those who know what it means, especially those who know what it means. Remember, I received a letter from a woman, a Christian lady, and she said, I had a dream, and I told this in one of my messages. She said, I was sitting in a restaurant in a great big glass window, a huge glass, and suddenly I looked out and I saw people dressed in white were being taken left and right. Suddenly they appeared in white robes and they were drifting. I said, what a beautiful sight. Nobody in the restaurant could see it. They were all talking about physical things, and money, and lands, and cars, and finances, and food, and all of these things. She said, look, look, look. She was so excited, she went to the window. She said, that's beautiful, that's gorgeous. Then it dawned on her, I'm here, and they're going. She moved over here to try to find a door. There's no door. She went over here. She said, if I can just get out there, if I can get out there, I'll go with them. She was absolutely panic-stricken because everybody was leaving. The Bible said we should all be changed in the twinkling of an eye. They were being changed in the twinkling of an eye, and she's sitting there, or standing there in terror trying to find a way to get through that glass wall. She woke up, and boy did she pray. She said, oh, Jesus, I'm going to trust in the sprinkling of your blood. I'm going to walk in your righteousness. I will not be afraid. I will not fear. Hallelujah. He will send forth his angels, then together his elect from every nation, and he shall send his angels with the great sound of a trumpet. They shall gather together his elect from the four winds from one end of heaven to the other. This is resurrection day. Jesus is going to shout, saints, come forth. He said that to Lazarus, and Lazarus came out. He's going to say it to all of his beloved, to the whole elect. He's going to say, come forth, and the angels are going to go out, the Bible says, and gather all the elect from the four corners of the earth. The dead in Christ will rise first. There is going to be the sound of a trumpet. Some Bible scholars think that's the voice of the Lord himself sounding as a trumpet. Others, it will be a literal trumpet sound that will be heard in the grave. Angels are going to be told, search the earth, go to the bottom of the seas, every saint that ever drowned, go into the deepest grave, let the dead be raised, go with this shout and awaken my beloved from their graves. And we are going to be awakened, folks, and we are going to be changed in our new bodies. We will be in our new bodies when we are resurrected. We are resurrected into a new body, the Bible says. Hallelujah. And we are going to be gathered together with Christ in the cloud at his judgment seat. He's coming to sit in the judgment seat. I believe this is literal. I believe the whole earth, the whole world is going to see that scene in the heavens. What a magnificent, glorious scene. We see this throne of God, the throne of Jesus Christ. The hour is coming and now is when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God and they that hear shall live. Glory to God. The Bible said the hour is coming in which all they that are in the grave shall hear his voice and they shall come forth. The dead in Christ shall rise first. Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them into the clouds. Hallelujah. Into a glorified body. You know an amazing thing? We're going to recognize. God is going to give us some kind of a consciousness to recognize. See, everyone's going to have a new name on a white stone that only they know and the Father knows. I don't know what that means. I do know that when the three disciples went with Jesus to the Mount of Transfiguration, they knew that Moses was there. They knew Elijah was there. They had not seen him, been dead for years, but they recognized him in the Spirit. And in the Holy Spirit, we are going to recognize James and John and Moses and Abraham. We're going to recognize everybody. We don't have to ask names. They're going to know you just like you know them. Abraham's going to come up to me and say, You're David Wilkerson, aren't you, from New York City? He's going to say, You preached a lot about me, didn't you? Yes, and we are going to know each other. We shall know even as we are known. We're going to be numbered among the righteous. Oh, hallelujah. The redeemed are going to shine in its brightness. The Bible says he shall be glorified in his saints. Folks, you talk about a praise meeting. You talk about a shouting time. Nobody going to be in some corner watching it. Hallelujah. The Scripture makes it very clear there's going to be an outbreak of thunderous praise and worship. There before Christ in his judgment seat, we will fall down before him. Along with the four and twenty elders, we are going to be shouting his praises. Scripture says, I beheld in law a great multitude, which no man could number of all nations and kindred and people and tongues, stood before the throne and before the Lamb and cried with a loud voice saying, Salvation to our God. This is what we're going to be saying. To him who sits upon the throne and under the Lamb and all the angels stood around the throne and about the elders and the four beasts and fell before the throne on their faces and worshipped God saying, Amen, blessing, glory, wisdom, thanksgiving and honor and might be to our God forever and ever. And you know, our Lord is going to stand before this great multitude and say, Welcome, my beloved. Welcome. Oh, folks, to beyond the veil of tears. I wake up every day anymore and I look in the mirror and say, There's nothing in my world. Lord, there's nothing here holding me. I can say with Paul, I would rather be with him. If you can't say that, you really don't know him. There has to be something in you that says, Even so, Lord Jesus, come quickly. He has to be more than your wife, more than your children, more than your job, more than anything in this world. Even so, Lord, come quickly. Hallelujah. Oh, yes. What a day. And I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude and the voice of many waters and the voice that sounded like mighty thundering, saying, Hallelujah, for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth. You know, if the prodigal son comes home and his father hugs and kisses him, we're prodigals coming home. What do you think he's going to do with us if he's not going to hug and kiss his own children? The Bible said we're all going to be judged for all the things we've done, both good and bad. You see, the bad things that we've done, they will be monitored, they will be mentioned, the books are all going to be opened. But then, you and I are going to stand before the judgment seat of Christ without fear. I can prove that to you. In his presence is going to be fullness of joy, and in his right hand will he place us forevermore. He that heareth my word and believeth on him hath everlasting life, shall not come into condemnation. But he will present you faultless before the throne of his glory with exceeding great joy. And the only reason the bad things are going to be mentioned is to glorify his grace, so that all through eternity we will be thinking of that marvelous grace that redeemed us. But there will be no sorrow. Hallelujah. Before the judgment seat of Christ, he said, it's with exceeding great joy. Oh yeah, all of these things, they can be mentioned, but the Lord is going to say, now can you understand my grace? Understand how good I've been to you? I give you something to rejoice about all through eternity. Hallelujah. You know, when you get to heaven, the Lord revealed this to me years ago. I've heard others use this. Probably picked it up in one of my tapes, but years ago I saw this. And when you get to heaven, it's not some static glory where you get it all at once. We're going to have an ever-expanding consciousness of the glory of God. We're going to learn all through eternity. Can you imagine that in the last 100 years we've gone from horse and buggy to spaceships in 100 years? Can you imagine the increase of knowledge in just the past 100 years? Can you imagine eternity with a mind that is God-like, God-conscious, that is released from all sin and hindrances? Can you imagine what we're going to learn about His universe? Ever-expanding of the glories of God and all the glory of grace and mercy that redeemed us. Hallelujah. It's going to take an eternity just to get to know all about Him. Hallelujah. And in hell there's an ever-increasing knowledge of damnation, ever-increasing knowledge of what was lost, ever-increasing terror. It's not a static terror. It's ever-increasing. The Bible makes that very, very clear. Then, after He welcomes us, the books are open, and He proclaims His proclamation, Well done, thou good and faithful servant. Take your seat. Right hand to the Father. Right hand to the throne of God, because now we're going to sit and judge the whole world, every center. We are going to sit. The 12 apostles are going to be in the front seats, judging the tribes. And we are going to be there on the right hand of the Father, the sheep. Hallelujah. We're going to be seated. Sit down at my right hand. There's going to be a roll call, first of all, of all the saints. He's going to name our names, and then He's going to confess us to His heavenly Father before the whole world. When all of the wicked are brought before this throne, then He's going to pronounce our name before the whole world, all the angels and the Father in heaven. This is my beloved. He's going to confess us before the Father. These are mine. These are my children. I will confess His name before my Father and before His angels. To Him that overcometh I will grant to sit with me in my throne. And I saw thrones, and they that sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them. Ye also shall sit upon 12 thrones, judging the 12 tribes of Israel. It appears the entire church of Jesus Christ is going to be there to amen His judgments, to be witnesses to His justice. Many of you are going to be witnesses against those on your job. You're going to be witnesses even against family members. And there will be no sorrow. There will be no sorrow. God will wipe away all tears and all capacity for sorrow. There's going to be a judgment. This just God is going to judge the wicked. The sinners or the goats will be brought before the throne of God. Folks, I believe in a one-by-one, one-at-a-time judgment. Now you say, how? That would take an eternity. Well, there'll be no sense of time anymore. We won't need to eat natural food. We won't need sleep. And the Lord is able supernaturally to make this move in such a way that our minds can't comprehend it. But every... The books are going to be open and every sinner... Can you imagine what it'd be like to be numbered among the transgressors? You're standing next to Hitler. You're standing next to mass murderers. You're standing against... Right there, those who nailed Him to the cross. Every sinner of every age, every apostate, every wicked, vile person, every murder of every Jew on the face of the earth, every Christ-rejecter to be numbered with transgressors. I don't think there's any thought more terrifying than to have to stand, knowing that you're going to kneel before the Father, kneel before Christ on His throne, and have to answer for every thought, every word, every deed that has not been forgiven. It stands there unforgiven. It stands there before the judge. And what a day that is going to be. The saints are going to amen His judgments. The saints will join in a chorus when He says, Depart from me, you work of iniquity. That will be voiced by every saint of God. It'll be like thunder. Depart from me, you cursed into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels. And you will witness the wicked being bound hand and foot by the angels of the Lord and taken out and cast. Now listen, folks, into outer darkness. There's going to be a flinging of these bodies. And, folks, they're going to be bodies fitted for destruction, the Bible said. These are special. Unless we get a glorified body, they get a body fitted for destruction that cannot be destroyed. The worm that eats is the conscience. The Scripture makes it very, very clear. And they're going to be flung out. Can you imagine being flung out into eternity, into a cosmos somewhere so dark, and the further you get away from God, the deeper the darkness, a darkness that can be touched and felt, a darkness that is so far away from God and drifting and drifting and drifting out into eternity till finally face to face with Satan? And to know that every moment you drift further and further away, there's going to be a drift. People who die come back. There have been books written on it about they go through these tunnels. One is light and the other is dark. Can you imagine going through this dark tunnel cast into outer darkness? Folks, even the signers trying to describe the darkness of the cosmos out there. There's such a darkness that our human minds can't comprehend it. But more than that, to be cut away from everything that made life sweet, everything that gave us consciousness, everything that had to do with the comfort of God and the Holy Ghost, that's all gone. What an awful, horrible thought to be removed from the presence of God. Forget the hell's fire for a moment. Think about being removed from Him who sits on the throne. Never again to hear a scripture verse, never to hear an invitation, never to hear a kind word, never to see a smiling face again, never to see a friend again, never to have hope again. Incomprehensible. To Him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne. You're going to sit there and you will judge with Him. Hallelujah. They will be cast hand and foot into eternity. The saints, the scripture said, do you not know that the saints shall judge the world and judgment shall be given to the saints of the Most High? Daniel 7.22. Behold, the Lord is coming with ten thousands of His saints to execute judgment upon all. And do you not know that you shall judge the angels? The fallen angels you and I will judge. And after the judgment's completed and all of the damned have been eternally cast from His presence, there's nothing left now. There's nothing left but the saints. Hallelujah. Jesus Christ is going to rise from the judgment seat and we're going to rise with Him and He's going to turn to us. You know what He's going to say? Come and go with me to my Father's house. I can't sing it. Father, I don't have to sing it. Where do you think that song came from? It came from this moment when He's going to say, come now to my Father's house. And I believe He's going to give us just a glimpse of the eternal city that He's been preparing. That golden vision is going to appear before all the saints and He says, now come, we're marching to Zion. And the Bible said He's going to take us and present us to His heavenly Father as His bride. Hallelujah. What a march. You talk about a triumphant entry? Terrible as army with banners? Then He will present us with that spot unto His Father. Then shall He deliver up the kingdom of God to God, even the Father. Then shall the Son also Himself be subject unto Him that put all things under Him, that God may be all in all. We're going to see God. You say God's the Spirit. How are we going to see Him? Folks, I can't explain this, but I do know something. Suddenly there's going to be a revelation. Jesus is going to take His seat. You know what He's going to say? If you've seen me, you've seen the Father. Hallelujah. The next order of business, no sooner are we presented to the Father than the Bible said He's going to do away with all the old heavens and earth, this atmosphere that we know, this orbit that we are in, our literal heavens and earth. The heavens are going to pass away with a great noise. The elements shall melt with a fervent heat. The earth also and the works that are therein shall be burnt up. You know, there are some theologians that believe God is going to redo this earth by fire, and that's explained by one of the fathers, Romanus, who wrote these heavens and this earth will be purified with fire and super-invested with new endowments. There shall be an everlasting habitation of the blessed saints. But most church fathers believe like I do. He said He's going to destroy. This heaven and this earth are going to perish. Let me read it to you. Of old hast thou laid the foundations of the earth and the heavens by thy hands. They shall perish, but thou shalt endure, O God. All the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together like a scroll, and the host shall fall down, and the leaf that falleth from the vine. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my word shall not pass away. Wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements of the earth shall melt with fervent heat. Nevertheless, we, according to His promise, look for new heavens, new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. All folks, what He's got, I don't think this earth could handle what He has in mind. Modern science can't tell us any more about the creation of the earth than they say the earth was created in a big bang. There was a big bang and suddenly life began to spring up. No, they got it wrong. The big bang is at the end, not the beginning. The big bang. And I saw new heaven and new earth. For the first heaven and the first earth were passed away with a great noise, and there was no more sea. The big bang is at the end. No more sea, no more moon, sun. You know, the heavens, the Bible said that the heavens and the earth are kept in store, reserved under fire against the day of judgment, in the perdition of godly men, and the earth and the works therein shall be burned up. You know when God set fire on Mount Carmel? What did it do? It licked up the waters that were there. Can you imagine this fire licking up the seas? I mean, licking up everything. And it is going to go. We're going to be with Him, and folks, we are coming to a new world. We're in righteousness reigns. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. You are not going to be sitting around in a mansion, just harping and stringing and saying, no more work, no more bills to pay. No, no, no, no. There's a whole new world. He's going to have us conquer to His glory, not conquer as much as to rule and reign over things that are finite minds. If God just opened a little inch and we could just take a peek in there, it's so beyond anything your mind and mine can comprehend of singing and new songs and new praises and new kinds of ministry one to another. Folks, there are going to be millions and millions of little babies and children. Do you remember the story of the little boy? I told you once, this is the only story I've really believed of those who've had visions of heaven. This little kid had a dream, and he woke up and he said, Mama, I had a dream. I went to heaven, and I saw Jesus, this little kid. He said He played ball with me. That's the only one I've believed. I had others. They have visions about it. I saw Eternal City, and everything was gold. The roses were gold. Who wants cold roses? You can't smell cold roses. The sea was gold. Who wants water that's gold? I want real water. I want real flowers. Hallelujah. Let me tell you why I preach this tonight. When these things begin to come to pass, then look up, lift up your heads, rejoice, because your redemption's drawing nigh. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for all these things, that new heaven He'd just been talking about, the new heaven and new earth, He said, Wherefore, beloved, seeing that you look for such things, be diligent you'll be found in peace without spot and blameless. He said, Let this bring peace to your heart, because this is not your world. Seeing then all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in all holy living and godliness? Hallelujah. I did that in 35 minutes. Are you clapping because I'm done? Saints, listen to me. God does not want you limping around in your Christian life, going around sad. That is one of the poorest commercials for heaven I've ever think about. There ought to be a joy. People say, Where are you going? I'm going to heaven. I'm going to a new world, and there's joy in my heart, joy unspeakable and full of glory. We need to take a moment. Now, for some of those that are here now, you can't rejoice from the heart. Maybe a little on the outside, but deep in your heart. And let me tell you why, because you're doubting that you're ready. You're doubting that you're prepared. First of all, you think you're unworthy and that you're not able to live the life that you want to live and that somehow you're going to miss it. You lack assurance. You lack peace. I want you to get out of your seat and come and say, Jesus, take away my fear. Take away my doubts. Give me confidence in your saving power. Some of you have literally probably backslidden. You've said, It's been too hard. God, listen to me, please. I believe this is the Holy Spirit. It's just been too hard for me, Brother Dave, to try to live this. I'm not making it. I'm just not making it. He wants to give you strength. He wants to heal you. Some of you say, Brothers, I've got a terrible sin that keeps hanging on to me. Something won't let go of me. I don't know whether it's demon power or what. Something's got its claws on me, and I want those claws taken off my spirit and my body. Come. Nobody needs to know what it is. Just come right here to the front, and we'll pray for you. We'll believe Jesus. Up in the balcony, just go either side and down the steps, and let's believe Jesus for you tonight. God's able. God wants to bring you home. He wants you to be in this redeemed number. God doesn't want to lose anybody. He doesn't want to lose anyone. Hallelujah. He's faithful. He loves you, and he cares about you. Hallelujah. Wonderful Jesus. Come on. We'll wait for you. Just come and fill up the front here. Hallelujah. Folks, hold steady. The Lord's doing a good work here in some hearts. Bless the Lord, oh, my soul. Okay, you can just stay in the aisle there. That's all right. Right where you're at, that's fine. You can still come while I'm talking also. Beloved, if you're not ready, this would be a wonderful night to get ready, a wonderful time to get ready. I'm going to convince Jesus loves you no matter what. He loves you no matter what. Yes, he does. He cares about you. Look at me, please. Some of you that are in the aisle and some that are standing here, you're standing here with a lot of pain inside of you. There's pain. The pain has to do with what you're going through, a lot of hurt, a lot of pain. Maybe it's the way you've been raised. Maybe it has to do with your background. Maybe it's something you're going through very special right now, a special kind of problem, a real testing and hard time right now. You say, Bro. Dave, I'm having a hard time. How many of you raise your hand and say that's me? I'm having a hard time. I'm having a hard time. Well, Jesus is just for hard times. Yes, he is for good times and hard, but he's especially for hard times. He's there for hard times. You know, most of you know what to pray. You know what to say. You don't have to have me say it. But for those, have a look at, honey, look this way for just a moment. Is this your first time here? You know, the Lord wants to do a miracle in your heart. He wants to take away all the fear, and he also wants to heal your body. He wants to heal you physically. You need healing, and he wants to heal you. Lord, heal this sister. Open her heart and her mind to you right now. Just open it up. Hallelujah. Everybody that's come forward, just look up to the Lord. Lift up your hands. The Bible said I want you to lift up your hands. And just pray. Talk to him right now. Lord, I need you. I'm going through a hard time. Lord, forgive me and touch me. Yes, heal my marriage. Heal my body. Help me on my job. I'm going through a hard time, Jesus. Help me. Forgive me. Take away my sins. Take away all my hurt. God, touch me. Jesus, come. I open my heart to you, Jesus, right now. Confess your sins, he said. Believe in your heart. Lord, I believe you right now. Take away this clutch, this claw, Lord, that's trying to hold some by their sins. Break the chains of sin now through the power of the Holy Spirit. Break the chains of sin because we confess, Lord, and call on you for help. In the name of Jesus, let this be the beginning of a new day. Thank you, Jesus. I want you to believe and thank him right now, Lord. I thank you for hearing my prayer. I thank you for hearing my cry. Now, look at me, please. The Bible says you shall know the truth, and the truth will set you free. It's truth that delivers you, and that's why you need to get in our New Believers class. That's on Friday night at 7 o'clock. You can come here, and they'll tell you where to go. It's just in the Holiday Inn Hotel right over here. We have rooms. Folks, we are hopefully, within the next two weeks, signing the final contract on this building next door, and we'll have all the space that we need. But in the meantime, you need to get in on these classes. You need to be trained, especially if you come tonight, and you say, I want to give my whole life to Jesus. This is the beginning. This is just the beginning, and the Lord wants to transform your life, give you a new mind and a new heart, clean up your life, and give you peace and joy. Hallelujah. The Lord is good. Now let me pray for you. Lord, for everyone that came forward tonight, I pray for a miracle. Lord, let there be childlike faith that reaches out to you and say, Lord, this is the beginning. Lord, this is not the whole thing. This is just the beginning. This is the first step. But Lord, there has to be a step. Holy Spirit, I don't think any would have come unless you worked in their heart and you wooed them and you called them. They answered your call, not my call, but your call. Lord, this is an altar, yes, but this is an altar called made by the Holy Ghost, not by man, but by the Spirit of the living God. And Lord, you said, whosoever will, call upon the name of the Lord and be saved. Whosoever will. Hallelujah. We believe that. We give you glory. Now, Lord, send the Holy Spirit to give power and to give ability and, Lord, to strengthen. In the name of Jesus, we receive your Holy Spirit for our health. Amen. Glory be to God. Hallelujah. Now, like everybody came forward, now just turn around, and I want you to just take two or three people by the hand and say, God bless you. A good, solid God bless you. God keep you. God bless you. Bless somebody. This is the conclusion of the tape.
