Opening And Focused Prayer

SPEAKER_01 0:01

Our text today that we're gonna be reading is gonna come from Acts chapter 4. We're gonna exegete three verses, verses 29, 30, and 31. And we want to get right to the word. We're so glad that you're here. My name is Pastor Matthew. Get the honor of being one of the pastors here on staff. And uh we do not take these gatherings lightly. So I want to encourage every single one of you to turn off all distractions. Put your phones on, do not disturb. Make sure your coffee cups are not near your feet so you don't spill it in the aisle. And um, if the enemy cannot destroy you, he will try to distract you. I want no distractions. Turn off your phones, get your Bible out in front of you, and let's slip our hands out in front of us and let's pray as we go into the proclamation of God's word. Father, in the name of Jesus, we thank you, God, for your word. Father, this is the hour where we need your word proclaimed, unfiltered, unadultered in this hour. Lord, we thank you that whether two or three are gathered in your name, your word says that there you are in the midst. And so, God, we don't have to ask for you to be here, that you are already here. But Father, since you are here, Lord, would you give us the eyes to see? And God, would you give us the ears to hear, the unfiltered, unfathomable word of God? We thank you, God, that your word changes hearts and it changes lives and changes marriages and changes minds. God, we we pray that your word would do the work. Father, strengthen me, a broken earthly vessel to proclaim your word in grace and in truth, purity and power, conviction and compassion. Father, I pray that you remove all distractions from our minds in the name of Jesus Christ. Father, remove all shame and all condemnation in the name of Jesus Christ. Father, let our eyes be fixated on you, the author and the finisher, the founder and perfecter of our faith. God, have your way and fall like rain and let your glory be made known in this room. God, we love you and we honor you. It's in the mighty and the holy and the matchless and the perfect name of our Lord and Savior and soon coming King, the Lord Jesus Christ. And all God's people in this room said, Amen and amen. The fact that you are sitting in this room and you have the opportunity to lift your hands and worship the Lord in freedom. The fact that you are able to come in here without any persecution, and that you're able to come in here and magnify the Lord of Lords, and magnify the one who saved you, and magnify the one who redeemed you, and magnify the one who brought you from death to life, is no small ordeal. My fear is that in this hour we have so many Christians, and myself included, where this has become normal and the lights have become normal, and the coffees become normal, and the gatherings have become normal. We have lost reverence for the Lord Jesus Christ and his word. This is not just another Sunday. This is not just another gathering, this is not just another time where we come in and check off a box and we go home unchanged and untransformed. No, that this is the hour where we have a privilege of gathering and hearing the unfiltered word of God. Amen. Anybody in this room?

Pentecost Sunday And Holy Spirit Power

SPEAKER_01 3:43

And today is important, hear me, because today is Pentecost Sunday. Now, Pentecost represents 50 days. Watch, 50 days after the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It was on the 50th day where the Holy Spirit poured out his presence. It was on the 50th day where the apostles and the disciples and the brothers and the sisters and 120 faithful men and women were in an upper room waiting. But that waiting was not passive. Hear me in this room. That waiting was active. They were reading the scriptures and they were studying the prophets and studying all that the word of God had said pertaining to that hour. Let me remind you, church family, that the Lord Jesus Christ came, lived 33 years, perfect, sinless, was tempted in every way, yet without sin. He was delivered over to the Roman government, was delivered over to the people that in one week would shout Hosanna, and the next week they shouting, Crucify Him. This man lived and died a sinner's death, the death that you and I should have died, crucified on a cross, bloody, naked, taking the shame and the pain, and 39 lashes upon his body, so that you and I could be reconciled to the Father. Was put in a tomb. Watch, was put in a tomb, was in the tomb for three days. On that third day, on that Sunday, our Lord in Jesus Christ, He resurrected. He did not stay in the tomb. And before I move on any further, I want to proclaim this unapologetically. That our God, the God that we serve, is and always will be alive. No. When Muhammad went in the grave, he stayed in the grave. All right, okay, okay. When Joseph Smith went in the grave, he stayed in the grave. When Confucius went in the grave, he stayed in the grave. Anybody thankful in this room that our Lord and Savior on that third day got up out of the tomb? And is seated at the right hand of the Father.

Resurrection Witness And Church Explosion

SPEAKER_01 6:17

You remember all the way in the book of Acts, chapter one, Jesus tells his disciples, he says, Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Holy Spirit. Acts chapter 1, verse 8 says this. He says, And you will receive, watch this word, power. When the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses to Jerusalem, to Judea, to Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. Verse 9, he is ascended into heaven, and he is currently seated at the right hand of the Father. Watch, making intercession for you and for me. It was after he resurrected that our Lord and Savior proclaimed and taught the kingdom of God to his disciples for 40 days. On the 40th day, he ascended into heaven. And the apostles and the disciples, they wait for 10 days in an upper room and they're praying, they're fasting, they're searching the scriptures. And on the 50th day, Pentecost means five, 50 days after the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit falls. And these 120 men and women who are waiting on the promise begin to speak in tongues. And all the surrounding nations, all the surrounding ethnicities are able to hear the wonders of God being proclaimed in their own language. And in that moment, the church age officially begun. It was on that day, pay attention, that the last days had officially begun. And it was on Pentecost Sunday, watch, where an urgency was created, and that is why many of the apostles and disciples they gave their life. They gave their life for the message that we serve a resurrected king and a resurrected savior. No one gives their life for a lie. No one dies for a lie. They were stoned, they were stabbed. Peter was crucified on an X-shaped cross. Nobody dies for a lie. They knew what they saw. They knew what they heard. They had walked with the Lord Jesus Christ. Telecost happens, and in a moment, the first church ever recorded in the scriptures explodes to over 3,000 members. Not because of a brand, not because of marketing schemes, not because of banners, not because of websites, not because of fancy preaching, but the power of the Holy Spirit.

Healing At The Beautiful Gate

SPEAKER_01 8:58

We get to Acts chapter 3. And two disciples, Peter and John, are walking into the temple and they walk past the gate called Beautiful. And there's this man who would sit in front of the gate as people would enter into the temple and he would beg for alms, he would beg for money. And people would often walk by him and ignore him and treat him as if he was a nobody. And Peter and John walk by this man who's been lame from the waist down almost all his life. And Peter and John they direct their gaze at this man and they say, Silver and gold, I do not have, but what I do have, I offer you in the mighty name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Rise up and walk. And this man begins to walk, and he begins to walk into the temple with Peter and John praising the Lord, praising God, filled with the Holy Spirit because of the miracle that I was once lame and now I can walk. I was once sick and now I'm healed. I was once sick and now I'm whole. And after that miracle, Peter and John begin to experience opposition because anytime there is a move of God, it will always attract demonic opposition. And people begin to get upset because they know who this man is, and they begin to get agitated with Peter and John that they are proclaiming the resurrected Lord, the resurrected King. And they are amazed. Hear me, they are amazed at how eloquent Peter and John were because they did not receive the traditional rabbi training, they didn't go through rabbi school. That Peter and John were fishermen. And you remember in the scriptures how when Jesus called them, he says, You will now be fishers of men. And they spent three years walking next to the living God in human flesh, fully man, fully God, learning the secrets of the kingdom, learning how to operate in the power of the Holy Spirit. Amazed by their boldness, amazed by their tenacity, amazed by their fearlessness. The people begin to surround Peter and John in Acts chapter 3, and they begin to glorify God for the miracle they had seen for this man that was once lame and now stands walking, giving praise to the Lord Jesus Christ. Few verses after that, they get arrested, and they get pulled in for questioning in the beginning of

Arrested And Threatened To Stay Quiet

SPEAKER_01 11:44

Acts chapter 4. They are arrested by the Sanhedrin, Sanhedrin court, 71 members that consisted of Sadducees, which were a people group that watched, they did not believe in the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. They did not believe in an afterlife. Pharisees who were obsessed with the Torah, the first five books of the Bible: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy, forgetting that the Old Testament bears witness to the Lord Jesus Christ. He remembers what the scriptures say, that Jesus himself said that I did not come to abolish the law, but I came to fulfill it. The Old Testament points to the Lord Jesus Christ. The Sanhedrin court, watch, they they arrest Peter and John. They arrest them at evening, right? And so the next morning, the next day, they bring them out for questioning, and they begin to threaten Peter and John. They begin to threaten them, that they'll beat them, watch, that they'll flog them, that that maybe they might hurt their families, might hurt their brothers, their sisters, and their relatives. And they charge Peter and John to stop speaking about the Lord Jesus Christ, to stop speaking about what you have seen, to stop speaking about what you have witnessed, and watch the response of Peter and John. He's like, We cannot help but speak of what we have seen and heard. And so, in the midst of opposition, in the midst of being threatened, in the midst of their families being threatened, their livelihood being threatened, they are not intimidated, they are not afraid, they are not taken back, but they say, We cannot help but speak of what we have seen and what we have heard. When you have truly had an encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ and you are truly filled with the Holy Spirit, can't nobody shut you up? Can nobody shut you up? Can nobody tell you to be quiet when you've seen and encountered the resurrected Lord and Savior? When you've had an encounter with the Lord, don't matter if they make fun of you, don't matter the opposition, don't matter who abandons you, don't matter who rejects you, don't matter who gossips about you.

SPEAKER_00 14:09

Come on, man. Come on.

SPEAKER_01 14:16

And so after, watch, after, listen, watch, watch, watch. After the Sanhedrin court realizes that guess what? Our threats are not going to work. And otherwise, in other words, they realize that Peter and John they ain't no punks, right? Ain't no punks. Because some people are just all bark, all they have is threats, right? Some people all they do is just comment on social media, all bark and no bite. After they realize that Peter and John would not be shut up by the threats of the Sanhedrin court, they released Peter and John. Now watch. I love what happens next. Because after Peter and John get released from being arrested, get released from being threatened, they run right back to their friends. They run right back to the other disciples. And they run back to their friends and they run back to the church. They run back to the disciples and watch what they do. Watch what their response was to persecution. Watch what their response was to opposition. They did not complain. They didn't throw a pity party on social media. No. Guess what they did? They found the other disciples, and watch, they began to pray. They began to pray. And they all began, Acts chapter 4 says they began to lift up their voice, all the apostles. So now it's not just Peter and John. Think about this. Put yourself in the text. Matthew is there, Andrew is there, Bartholomew is there, Nathaniel is there, doubting Thomas is there, Matthias is there, all the disciples. They come around, they come around Peter and John and they begin to pray. They begin to pray and they begin to seek the Lord. And this is where we're gonna pick up right here.

Boldness Without Asking Threats To End

SPEAKER_01 16:12

The last few verses, the back end of their prayer, Acts chapter 4, verse 29. This is what they pray. Now I want you to look at these words, and I want you to examine the text. We're gonna exegete three verses, and I'm done. Verse 29 says, This is their prayer. And now, Lord, look upon their threats and grant your servants to continue to speak your word with all boldness. Stop right there. Stop. Notice, notice this, that they do not ask for the threats to stop. They do not ask for God to smite their enemies, they do not ask for vengeance upon their enemies. They say, Lord, look upon their threats and just notice that we are coming up against opposition. Notice the maturity. Hear me, church family. Notice the maturity of these disciples that you have to get, we have to get to a mature place where every time we are in opposition, the prayer should not be, Lord, take me out of it. The prayer should be, Lord, give me the strength, God, give me the tenacity, God, give me the boldness to get through this. It's not just what they pray, it's what they don't pray. How many of us in this room we would be so angry at our haters, so angry at those who reject us, so angry at those who gossip about us, so angry at those who threaten us, and they are so filled with the Holy Spirit that they are more concerned with their commission than their comforts. They are more concerned with their assignments than those who oppose threats against them. They are more concerned with the mantle on their lives, they are more concerned with the mission of reaching the world with the proclamation of the gospel, that they don't care if they suffer for the name of Jesus Christ. Now, Lord, look upon their threats. Who is their threats? Again, the threats of the Sadducees, the threats of the Pharisees, the threats of the scribes, and the threats of the elders. I just say this to make it plain to you that when you really start living and proclaiming the word of God, the most opposition that you will experience, hear me in this room, listen to me, listen. The most opposition that you will experience is not from non-believers, it is from Christians in the church. Hear me. No, I'm so serious about this. Look. That when you become truly on fire for God, watch, you start upsetting lukewarm Christians. That's why I don't get upset when people are like, You're doing too much, P.M. Why are you yelling so much? Why why is there a vein coming out of your forehead? Why is there a vein coming out of your neck? You're doing too much. No, I'm normal.

SPEAKER_00 19:28

I'm normal. I'm I'm normal. I'm normal.

SPEAKER_01 21:08

And yet the radicalness of these disciples agitated them so much they had them arrested. Verse 29, it says, Now, Lord, look upon their threats and grant your servants the ability to speak with all boldness. Now, I want to draw your attention to that word boldness. The Greek word for boldness is parasia. It means to speak the word of God plainly. It means to speak the word of God without concealment, it means to speak the word of God with confidence. I am more convinced, listen to me, more than ever, that we do not need any more entertainment from the American pulpit. I am convinced that all we need is the unfiltered word of God. The word of God that changes lives, it is the word of God that convicts, it is the word of God that shifts our mindset, it is the word of God that brings us closer to the feet of Jesus. And more than ever, in this hour, we need to make the word of God plain. We need to make it plain and stop being worried about who's gonna get offended and stop being worried about who's not gonna like me and stop being worried about who's gonna be bothered by the word of God. The word of God will always be the word of God. So they ask, Lord, don't take away the threats, don't take away the opposition, but if you can give us the boldness, God, give us the confidence, God, give us the fearlessness. I'm reminded of 2 Timothy 1, verse 7. For the Lord has not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind. May that be our prayer, often, church family, that we take our focus off the threats and we ask for a parasia, a boldness to speak the word of God unapologetically, not being so concerned with what people think, and not being so concerned with always moving on to the next thing, but actually developing a spiritual longevity to sit in the presence of God because where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. We need boldness in this hour. That's why I preach to you like this because I love you and I'm not afraid of you either. I don't preach sermons to be liked by you, I don't preach sermons for an applause because I know that when my life is over, I will be held accountable to one person. This is not for Instagram followers, this is not for social media approval, this is not to build a brand. There is no brand, it's just me and this word right here, and I hope that this word changes your life.

Our Obedience God Performs Miracles

SPEAKER_01 24:02

Verse 30 with all boldness, while you stretch out your hand to heal, and signs and wonders are performed. Stop so these disciples recognize that Lord, if we proclaim, then you will perform miracles, Lord. If we are faithful to proclaim your word, if we are faithful to declare our testimony, if we are faithful to evangelize, if we are faithful with our witness, if we are faithful to be a light at work and a light in our family, and a light to our spouse and a light to our children and a light in the church and a light in the community and a light in our small groups, a light in this house. If we are faithful, then you, Lord, will stretch out your hand to do what? Signs and wonders and miracles. I love this because this shows me that our only job is to operate in obedience and the outcome belongs to God. The problem is that we want to be in charge of our obedience and the outcome at the same time. And God did not ask you to heal. Let me relieve some pressure off of anybody in this room. You can't save anybody. You can't do it. You can't save that unsafe family member. You can't heal anybody, you can't restore anybody, but we know the one who can. So, Pastor Matthew, what is what is my job? What is my job? Your job is to be bold with your proclamation, your job is to be bold with your testimony, your job is to be bold with your witness, your job is to be faithful in your walk with the Lord Jesus Christ in private and in public on platforms and in the house. If you worry about your faithfulness, and if you operate in boldness, the Lord is the one who will stretch out what? His hand. To do what? To to heal and to perform signs and wonders. I want to draw your attention to that word perform. In the Greek, it means the word teleo. And that word teleo, it means to perfect, it means to accomplish, it means to finish. If we are faithful to proclaim the word of God in this hour, if we are faithful to proclaim the word and live out our faith, not just in church, but everywhere that we go. Do you have the audacity? Do you have the faith to believe that signs and wonders can be performed in this hour? Do you have the faith to believe that God is who he says he is? That he is Jehovah Rapha. That he is a healer, that nothing is too hard for our God. Let me remind you the God that we serve splits seas, and the God that we serve speaks galaxies into existence. Let me remind you the God that we serve can guide us in a cloud of fire. Let me remind you that the God we serve moves mountains. Let me remind you that the God we serve resurrected himself. Let me remind you that the God we serve is all powerful. And I just want to encourage somebody to believe that God really is who he says he is, that he is powerful, that he is able, and that he is willing. All he needs, church, is for you to operate in obedience and in boldness and to not be afraid. Lord, you stretch out your hands. Signs and wonders, healings will come forth if we operate in boldness. Verse 31.

Prayer That Shakes The Gathering

SPEAKER_01 28:22

And when they had prayed, the place in which they were gathered together was shaken. And they were all, not some, not just Peter and John, all filled with the Holy Spirit, and continued. That word continued means again that they did not stop just because they had come against opposition. Continued to speak what? Their opinions? No. Their Republican beliefs? No. Their democratic beliefs? No. They continued to speak what? The word of God. The word of God with all boldness. I want to draw your attention to this phrase. And when they had prayed, the place, that means the building in which they were began to shake. Shake. Watch. If an inanimate object, if a building that has no soul, if a building that has no soul, and a building that is not even made in the image of God can respond to the presence, can respond to that would be like this whole art center when we pray with faith and we call down the power of the Holy Spirit. That would be like this whole building shaking, trembling, magnifying the King of Kings and magnifying the Lord of Lords. Okay. If a building knows how to respond to the presence of God, how much more can his sons and daughters who are made in his image, who have been justified, redeemed, sanctified by the blood of Jesus? I just wonder, do I have twenty to thirty people? Stay standing on your feet. Church, this lets us know that the Holy Spirit does not respond to your gifts, and he does not respond to your talents, and he does not respond to your perfect record, and he doesn't respond to your church attendance, but the Holy Spirit responds when his sons and daughters gather together to pray.

SPEAKER_02 34:15

To pray, to pray. A prayerless church is a powerless church.

SPEAKER_01 34:28

Too many times in America, all over churches, people want platforms, they want microphones, they want stages, recognition, but no altar, public affirmation, but no work done in the secret place. It says, and when they prayed, that means the Holy Spirit responded to prayer. Let me let me let me just put you on free game. I don't care who you are, don't care what your ethnicity is, don't care if you're single, married, alone. I do not care. If you want the Holy Spirit to move in your life, you get on your knees and you pray and you call on the name of Jesus Christ. If you want your marriage restored, therapy is great, counseling is great, but you get on your knees, husband, and you intercede for your wife and you cover your children the blood of Jesus. I'm talking to you, husbands. You get on your knees, you get in that secret place, and you pray, and you pour out your heart before God and you get honest with Him. And they were filled with the Holy Spirit. I'm done right here. They were filled with the Holy Spirit with all boldness to continue to speak the word of God. Why is this important? Because if we pay attention to the text, this was not the first time. Listen, look, eyes here. This was not the first time that the Holy Spirit had filled the disciples. So this lets us know right here that the indwelling and the infilling of the Holy Spirit, it is not a one-time thing that we must immerse ourselves in the Holy Spirit every single day. We need to be filled every single day. It is not just a one-time thing. We need to be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit, the love of the Holy Spirit, the self-control of the Holy Spirit, the gentleness of the Holy Spirit, the kindness of the Holy Spirit every single day. You want to know why? Because we live in this flesh, and because our sinful tendencies are knocking at the door of our soul every single day, and you cannot conquer your sin, you cannot conquer your flesh, you cannot conquer demonic opposition, you cannot win spiritual warfare unless you are filled with the Holy Spirit. You are incapable. We need to be filled with the Holy Spirit so that we can be bold, so that we can be unapologetic, so we can be spiritual gangsters in the kingdom. We ain't no punks in this church. We're not afraid of nobody, we're not afraid of nothing. We are the most powerful organism in the world. Why? Because we have the Holy Spirit living on the inside of us.

Real-World Models Of Christian Boldness

SPEAKER_01 38:33

When I think of boldness, I think of my sister Tanya right here. Got radically healed, came back to Chicago and said, I feel the Lord calling me to be a missionary in these last hours of human history. Boldness for the kingdom, boldness. When I think of boldness, I think of someone like Ceci Feliciano right here. How you show up boldly every single day, Monday through Friday, at Proviso East. And the Holy Spirit put you on my mind last night. He told me that you have been the only thing about Christ that those students have seen all year. Monday through Friday. When I think of boldness, I think of the persecuted church, I think of the churches in Nigeria right now as I'm speaking to you. There are mothers, women that are being assaulted for their faith, murdered, beheaded, tried, and they still show up the next day, ready to worship the King of Kings, ready to worship the Lord of Lords. I've seen videos of pastors right now. This is happening right now as I'm speaking to you. While we're in our comfortable little building, air-conditioned building, coffee's at our feet. There are churches all over the continent of Africa where men and women, husbands, are being taken from their families, churches are being burned down right in front of the eyes of pastors. And I've seen videos, this is happening right now as I'm speaking to you. And I've seen pastors stand before their congregation and boldly declare we will not, we will not cease to gather and worship the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. We need a boldness in this hour. And sometimes boldness increases where there's more opposition. The church in Nigeria, men and women being slaughtered right now. Look it up online. I'm not lying to you right now, all over Africa. Am I lying, Laura? I'm not. You just came back from Africa, you know. Children struggling with sicknesses can't afford medical aid, can't afford anything. Pastors having their wives being taken from them, children being assaulted physically. This is happening right now, and the church in Nigeria is growing by the numbers. The church in the east is growing by the numbers. Pastor Matthew, what are you saying? All I'm saying is that if free church, if the church in the west could just get a little bit of tenacity and get a little bit of grit and get on their knees and say, Holy Spirit, give me the boldness to proclaim and be faithful with my witness, we will see revival, we will see healings, we will see signs, and we will see wonders and miracles all over America. So my prayer for this church as I close, it might disappoint you, it might let you down. My prayer for you this morning is not that the opposition in your life would cease. No, because whether you realize it or not, there is an endurance being produced in you, a faithfulness being produced in you, a tenacity being produced in you, a gangsterness being produced in you. My prayer for you this morning, if you want it, is that you would be filled with all boldness.

Altar Call Against Fear

SPEAKER_01 44:00

I want everybody to bow your heads. Bow your heads. If I'm talking to you in this room, and you've been plagued by fear, and you struggle with being bold, and you struggle with living out your witness outside of Sunday mornings. You struggle with your witness at work. Maybe you even struggle with your witness within your own family. And you're scared of rejection and you're scared of what people will think, and you're scared of the opposition, and you're scared of the gossip, and you're scared of the rumors, and you're scared of the comments on social media, you're scared of the mockery. I have good news for you today that you can receive all the boldness you need right here in this moment. And if I'm talking to you, this is very specific. Please do not lift your hands for the sake of lifting your hands. I'm talking to those that you are tired of living afraid, that you are tired of hiding your testimony, that you're tired of shrinking back, that you're tired of letting the opinions of people dictate how you live out your faith. I'm talking to you in this room. That's you. I want you to slip your hand up high. Slip it up high all over this room. All over this room. Keep your hand up. Keep your hand up. Keep your hand up high. Now I'm gonna do something bold. If you are on the prayer team in this room and you are sitting next to somebody with their hand lifted high, if you're a woman in this room, touch, touch a woman next to you. If you're a man in this room, touch a man next to you. I want you to lay a hand on their shoulder. We're gonna pray. Okay, keep your hand high. There's nothing to be ashamed of. Do not let shame rob you of this moment. And then Julian's gonna come get me and I'm done. But we need an impartation of boldness in this room. If there's somebody standing next to you, put a hand on their shoulder, find them, find them. I see hands in the back, find them, keep your hand lifted high. This is nothing to be ashamed about. We need boldness in this hour. Begin to pray, Father, in the mighty name of Jesus. I come against the spirit of fear. Father, you have not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and love and a sound mind. Father, everybody who has their hand raised in this room, I pray for an infilling of your Holy Spirit, oh God, to live out our witness in our families, at our schools, in our jobs, on the streets, God, wherever we go, Lord, fill us with boldness. Let us not be ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ. But today on Pentecost Sunday, I pray for an infilling of the Holy Spirit that you would fill your children with boldness, that you would fill your children with confidence, that you would fill your children with an unapologetic attitude, that we would not be a fearful church, that we would not be a prayerless church, but that we would operate, oh God, in spirits and in truth, grace and truth, conviction and compassion, Lord. Fill us right now. I pray that the spirit of fear would be bound in Jesus' name. We command all fear, I feel the Holy Spirit right now. We command you to go in the name of Jesus. Every ounce of fear, we command you to go in the name of Jesus. We will not be timid, we will not shrink back, we will not apologize. We are in the last hours of human history, Lord.

SPEAKER_02 48:02

Raise up end time warriors in this church, hallelujah, end time missionaries in this church, end time pastors in this church, end time worship leaders in this church, Father.

SPEAKER_01 48:24

Fill us right now, Holy Spirit.
