Go to go with me to the Matthew 3: 11:1 17 I don’t want to wear your patience I thank you again for your consistent Hospitality you treat treat a brother like me this good it’s hard to get him to go home Matthew 3:11 when you have it amen
Amen you already know don’t you amen it is my custom to stand on your feet for the reading of God’s word after that you can sit all night if you want but Matthew 3:1 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance but he that cometh after me
Is mightier than I whose shoes I am not worthy to Bear he shall baptize you with with the Holy Ghost and with fire whose fan is in his hand and he will thoroughly Purge his floor and gather his wheat into the Garner but he will burn up the cha with unquenchable
Fire then cometh Jesus From Galilee to Jordan unto John somebody say my name is John John yeah yeah there then cometh Jesus From Galilee the Jordan unto John to be baptized of him but John forbade him saying I have need to be baptized of thee and comest thou
To me Jesus answering said unto him suffer it to be so now for thus it becometh us to fulfill all righteousness then he suffered him and Jesus when he was baptized went up straight way out of the water and L the heavens were open unto him and he saw the spirit of God
Descending like a dove and lighting upon him and lower voice from Heaven saying this is my beloved Son in whom I am with well please so say is the scriptures remain standing for a moment I I want to talk to you from the simple subject the next Dimension all right the
Next Dimension some are in it some are on the verge of it and some have never thought of it but I want to talk about the next dimension Spirit of the Living God if you would fall fresh on me tonight not one Soul really came to hear
Me they want to hear you speak and not only they but me too I I I want you to preach out me what you preached in me Teach out of me what you taught into me let it let it flow unhindered and unrestrained bind every principality and
Power that would would try to interrupt the flow of what you would do in this place tonight I sense oh God somebody’s hungry break thou the bread of life and feed us till we want no more in Jesus mighty and righteous name we pray somebody who loves him say amen amen you
May be seated on your way down tell your neighbor I’m headed to the next dimension last night I introduced my brother to you the whole context of the text is centered around an introduction whereby we would have an understanding of who John is not so much John the character
In the scripture but what he represents to us is the departure from routine a moving away from ritualism and false humility and sanctimonious ideologies into a Thrust and a flow of God that sometimes can disrupt those of us who only find comfort in normaly there are some of us whose goal
In life is to Simply maintain the status quo Just Don’t Rock the Boat in my book when I was sitting out on the back deck writing instincts I began to talk a lot of in the book about leadership because there is a Dar uh in our country and in our churches and in
Our world for True leaderships most people are just placeholders they they get an office and a title to tell you that they have a red and then once you give them the office and the title there is no further movement at all I don’t understand how
You can be a leader and not have movement if a car is not moving it’s parked and I I just I just don’t understand how how lead but but then again when I think about it I I wrote that there are often two types of leaders and I drew it from a metaphor
About building a fire one type of leader is a builder and the other type is the banker y’all are too young to know about banking a fire but there’s a difference between how you position wood When You’re Building A Fire and how you throw ashes on it when you’re banking it it’s
All about position the same tools are used but how those tools are positioned determines the outcome of the fire itself if you want it to burn right you have to build it right uh if if if you want it to to bank and keep it warm all night then you develop a different
Position whereby the goal is to throw enough ashes into the Open Spaces that you slow down the progress of burning and maintain a certain level of heat without total combustion because there is not enough air flow to produce the level of fire to which is possible for wood that can move through unhindered
Spe spaces and air that can ventilate that positioning it’s all about positioning and how you think the difference between building and banking it’s a it’s a lot of difference between the two do you do you get up out of the bed in the morning to maintain what you
Have or do you want to increase what you have God is not offended by increase the very first thing he told Adam to do in the garden was to be fruitful he said I want you to do something with what I gave you that’s the distance of your
Leadership the where you took it from where you got it to where it goes determines the length and bread and impact of your leadership not your credentials not your titles not your car not your Porsche not your house not your accolades are you moving the thing
Forward or are you maintaining it to to me it is the difference between uh a preschool and a nursery they both take in children but the the object of the nursery is just to keep the kids safe till Mama comes and gets him but the object of preschool with the same with
The same kids is to leave the kids better than you found them and so the question comes of the people under your leadership tutelage whether you’re a pastor or not it can be a choir it can be your family did you leave them better or did you just babysit them until the master
Comes John was Radical he was different and the frustration as I tried to indicate last night the frustration with those who gathered around him is that they wanted him to fit in when when you are really a leader you have to give up on the need to fit in right yeah because
Real leadership will stand out real leadership will take risk and I must warn you that real leadership is controversial you you you you can’t be a leader and be preoccupied with the worries of what people are saying about you I I’m afraid today we have too many people in too
Many positions who are more worried about whether people like them than they are worried about accomplishing their purpose when your goal is to be like act by people you will let them name you whatever they need to name you to be accepted in the ranks you want to be
Accepted here but the moment you stand up and say my name is not Zacharias Jr my name is John expect people to have a problem with you and they had a problem with John because he did not go in and dress the lamps and tend the tables of
Shoe bread and function with the same methodology though he had the same position as his father he had a deviation in function he was strong enough to stand out he was big enough to be radical he was tough enough to be different he was tough enough to take a
Licking and keep on ticking and even though he did not do his thing in the temple the Bible said he went out in the wilderness and and made the Wilderness his Temple because when you got it nobody can stop you from doing what you
Do when you get ready to do it you can’t stop me from what I am I’m going to say that again cuz I want that to sink way down you can’t stop me from what I am you can lock me up in jail and I can do it in a prison
You can throw me in a pit and I’ll get out of a pit you can lie on me and detain me you may delay me but you can’t deny me you can’t stop me from what I am that’s a that’s a good tweetable right there look at your neighb and say you
Can’t stop me from what I am you can stop calling me that you can stop acknowledging me you can stop recognizing me you can talk about me you can blog about me you can tweet about me but you can’t stop me from what I am and
Since you can’t stop me from what I am why should I make my mission to change your mind some of you have misplaced your mission and given up on what you were called to do and you’re spending all of your life trying to convince your critics that
They got it wrong but truly great men are understood better in depth than they are in life some of the men that we rever right now in real time speed they were not revered the way they are revered postmortem people love dead heroes but when you’re living they have an issue
With with you and the test of your leadership is to be able to take a licking and keep on ticking to stand flat footed and say I said what I said and I meant it just like I said [Applause] it it sound like there some leaders up in here
Somewhere so what if he’s not in the temple so what if he’s not invited to the circle of priests so what if he’s not in their fraternity that in their lodges so what if he’s not invited out to dinner so what if they didn’t buy him
A suit when he came so what if he had to dress up in camel hair so what if he never went out to dinner he made his meal off of wild locust and honey because when you got it God will find a way to feed you when you don’t eat what
Losers eat you don’t lose like losers lose if you change your diet you’ll change your direction so John goes down down down down yes he goes down into the Wilderness he goes into the Wilderness no platform no stage no recognition no honorarium he goes into the Wilderness and preaches till folks start running
Out of the city to come into the Wilderness it doesn’t matter where you are if you got what you got people will drive to get to something that is lifechanging I wish I had a witness out there somewhere and so John has begin to minister and it is Jesus actually laid
That makes us understand that John was quite controversial he said that because John ate wild locust and honey and dressed in Camel’s hair they thought he was a devil because to the small mind anything different is demonic so they will categorize you in a place for their comfort rather than to
Be challenged by your progress it is easier to say you’re a devil because that becomes a disguise and an excuse for my incompetence to be Progressive so John oh God help me I’m helping somebody I don’t know who it is somebody knows what it is to be black balled somebody
Knows what it’s like to be on The Black List somebody knows what it’s like for people to grin in your face and stab you in the back and you know they don’t mean you any good but what God has for you my brothers and sisters it is for you they
Won’t know what you mean but tell them my name is John I don’t have to sit in your mole I don’t have to look like you I don’t have to be invited to your sority I don’t have to be in your click and in your Club go ahead and roll your
Eyes text your friends while I’m preaching but you’ll never be able to stop me from being what I am for he whom the son has set free is free indeed your chains cannot hold me your handcuffs cannot hold me is there anybody loose in this place let some loose radical
Preacher some loose woman some loose first lady some loose evangelist open up your mouth and Shout I know I know you bothered them when you made that noise but we don’t even care if you nervous if you’re nervous take a pill cuz we getting ready to be crazy in here tonight somebody say
Yes so John proceeds I’m just talking John John proceeds uh about his mission he is excommunicated from the Commonwealth of the theologians of his day he is not allowed at the counsel of those who are accustomed to a certain level of Orthodoxy he is radical almost cultish in his demeanor he is criticized
In his disposition he is rejected from their councel but he preaches in the desert until people leave the city to hear him the moment that we look at in our text is most profound because it is that moment where mercy and Truth are met together where righteousness and peace
Have kissed each other it is the moment where Destiny collides at the Jordan at the Jordan River at the Jordan River it will always happen around a river a moving body of water because we have a god that is a moving God from the very first mention
Of him in the Book of Genesis where it says the spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters to the final selections of Revelations where it says even so come Lord Jesus our God is either moving or coming he is a God on
The move he is a movement not a monument if he’s a fire he’s a mighty unquenchable fire if he’s a wind he’s a mighty Russian wind if he’s water he’s living water wherever God is he will move whatever he’s in he will move it he will change it and when they come down
To the Jordan when John comes down to the Jordan it is symbolic of getting into the preexisted flow you do not create the flow you find it [Applause] too many times we are trying to create a flow that needs to be discovered the flow is already there and if you step
Into the flow things will begin to shift in spite of the fact that they called him a devil and and criticized him John that old preaching devil has come down into the flow and when he comes down into of the flow all of those that heard
Him came with him until a multitude has stepped into the flow see you cannot lead people into a flow that you are not in yourself you can quote it you can teach it you can talk it you can PowerPoint it but they will never go where you have
Not been if you want people to get in the flow you’ve got to be the first partaker of the fruit and so we see John coming down into the flow the Jordan River stands betwix and between fruitfulness and dryness on one side of the river there
Are the grapes the land that flows with milk and honey and the clusters of grapes so big that the generation in the wilderness was so excited about it that they with stood Jericho to get into the fruit fulness after 40 Years of dryness when you’ve been dry a long time and you
Can see fruit you’re excited they saw it on the dry side but they had to cross the Jordan to get into the next Dimension oh so close and yet so far sometimes you can see it but you can’t taste it yeah you you you can explain it
But you can’t do it you can teach it but you can’t perform it uh but John doesn’t get to the Jordan and back up even though he has spent his ministry in the wilderness he now steps off of the dry parched land that that has identified him as a Wilderness preacher and he
Comes and steps into the flow because when you get in the flow you can see things that you cannot see in the drive when you get into the flow you get Revelation and perspective that you would not get otherwise when you get into the flow that’s where things are
Living that’s where things are moving that’s where fish are swimming it’s all in the flow it’s in the flow it’s in the flow as long as you have got blood flow you are alive that’s why they check your pulse to see if you are living because anything that’s not moving is dead the
Lack of flow is a sign that you’re dead that’s why they call money currency because in order for it to be powerful it has to flow and if money stops flowing it loses its power you can’t clutch it you got to loose it and let it
Flow and John has Ste down into the flow and I am a living witness that if you ever find your flow no devil in hell can stop you from being what you are created to be somebody in this building knows what I’m talking about after 20 years of
Trying to figure it out you have finally stepped into your flow some people don’t get in their flow until they’re 40 years old some people don’t find it until they’re 50 years old you can tell you’re in your flow when you can stand flat-footed and say I am who I am
I can do what God says I can do and I can have What God Says I can have nud your neighbor and tell them I’m in my slow yeah yeah so don’t try to bother me tonight because I’m in my slow don’t try to hinder me cuz I’m in my flow don’t
Try to curse me cuz I’m in my flow don’t look at me with them beady eyes cuz I’m in my flow when you’re in your flow they can talk about you at the barber shop but they can’t stop you from doing what you do when you in your flow John is now
In his flow and from his flow he looks out and says behold behold the lamb of God who taketh away the sins of the world John has come from the desert to the Jordan Jesus has come from the city to the Jordan but they meet together in the [Applause] flow
Hallu one point from the hand of John the premier preate preacher of his hour one pointing of his finger and Jesus who was a stranger in the crowd comes from obscurity to notoriety Jesus has been in a desert too it is not a physical desert but it is a
Desert of 18 years of Silence of which we have no information but after 18 years of Silence at the age of 30 he now comes out of the desert of Silence of ambiguity and one point one pointing finger takes him from ambiguity to notoriety the crowd parts to see who he
Is they do not recognize that the fell they’ve been pushing past is the fell they should have been looking to you you know sometimes people only pay attention to people on the stage but I want to warn you that sometimes the next great is sitting somewhere out in the crowd
You knock them down trying to get to your seat never understanding that God was getting ready to point them out I told you last night don’t sit beside nobody you don’t like cuz I’m going to have you talking to them all night long uh look at your neighbor on the left and
On the right and tell him I’m next I know I’m not up front right now but I’m next I know I had to park way over on the other side of the parking lot but I’m next I know I’m way up in the balcony and Bish J looks like a pimple
From where I’m sitting but don’t let where I’m sitting fool you I’m next and when God gets ready to draw you one moment can push you from the background to the Forefront from being a no name to a great name Behold the Lamb of God who taketh away
The sins of the world and in a flesh Jesus steps out of the crowd never to be anonymous again all of a sudden he steps out of the crowd and starts walking down to the Jordan this to me is a powerful moment Jesus the Lamb of God comes out
Of the CR out and steps down to the Jordan River and there Jesus and John meets at the Jordan you know the Jordan the Jordan the outflow from the Sea of Galilee you know the Jordan that wall of separation uh between the people and the promised land you know the Jordan that
Body of water that flows into the Dead Sea representing your sin s flowing into the sea of forgetfulness never to be remembered in this world or the world to come you know the Jordan it is that Jordan that Jesus now steps into and in a Flash he comes down to the
Jordan look at John we will understand later that this is their first recorded meeting and yet the Wilderness preacher recognizes the city lamb don’t know how he knew him but he knew him the people around him didn’t know him but John knew him do not Overlook the fact that he knew him
His discernment his instinct is quite Ken because he knows that one in the crowd is not like the rest of the crowd he stands out from the crowd he is different from the rest of them oh no no no no no no no it wasn’t his clothes
Because Jesus dressed so much like the people of his day that the Roman soldiers had to hire Judas to point him out so he didn’t stand out in his name brand clothes there was a something something something something different about you is there anybody in here that knows there’s something different about
You you I don’t care what you put on people always know there’s something different about you even when you try to fit in you stand out there’s a behold here he comes he’s coming he’s coming he’s coming he’s coming touch everybody you can reach and tell him he’s coming
He’s coming he’s coming he’s coming he’s coming the one that God has chosen the one that God has set aside the one that God has predetermined he’s coming tell every devil and warn every witch he’s coming whenever Jesus shows up in a situation no hex no spell no incantation
Can stop his arrival he’s coming and Hell cannot stop it he’s coming and demons cannot stop it he’s coming and Satan cannot stop it he’s coming and sin cannot stop it he’s coming and flesh cannot stop it and here he comes a lamb walking on two legs walking down walking down [Applause] walking
Down down down into the Jordan the lamb and the man stepping into the flo John who is busy baptizing the Pinnacle of his ministry my God the aark of his been the brand of his ministry is baptism but when it comes to Jesus he says oh I cannot baptize
You you need to baptize me and it was Jesus next word that got me suffer it to be so that it might fulfill all righteousness he says this is important we’ve got to do this to fulfill all righteousness when I grew up in First Baptist in Charleston West Virginia my
Pastor told me that Jesus got baptized uh to typify that Christians need to be baptized perhaps that that is true but but I think it’s more right seeing is this is one of the few if not only shadows in the New Testament the baptism you realize is the
Shadow of the death burial and resurrection of the lord we have left all the other shadows in the Old Testament but this one protrudes it is Jesus acting out what he would later fulfill a shadow is an object seen in light you cannot have a shadow unless you have an object seen in
Lights and in the lights of the revelation of his splendiferous glory he cast a shadow in the Jordan that is fulfilled on the cross suffering to be so let me run through this rehearsal God this baptism is a rehearsal let me run through this rehearsal so I can show you how to get
Into the next [Applause] Dimension so let’s practice this and the Bible says he went down into the water and that’s what I realized Jesus and John standing with the Waters of Jordan rushing in between their legs it is not only a shadow of what is to come it is deja
Vu of what has already happened these boys have not seen each other till they were standing in water [Applause] before you remember how John was trapped in the fluids of his mother’s womb and the baby Jesus was in the fluids of his mother Mary and when they saluted one
Another both of them floating in water when they saluted John with filled with the Holy Ghost and here they are back in the water [Applause] again they are the the the the the point I am laboring to try to articulate is that they are in the same place they were
When we talked last night but this time they’re in the next Dimension yeah touch your neighbor and say I’m in the next Dimension oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah people people try to say you changed and that you’re acting funny no I’m still who I always was I’m the same person but
I’m in the next Dimension I know I’m in the next Dimension because things that used to bother me don’t bother me anymore people that used to get on my nerves don’t get on my nerves anymore in the First Dimension you stressed me out but in the next Dimension I can walk right through
You oh is there anybody in here in the next Dimension take 30 seconds and praise God for where you are right now When you are in the next Dimension you operate on a different level you operate on a different plane you have a different understanding hey when you get in the next Dimension you look at what used to impress you in the First Dimension and you wonder what did I see
Does anybody know what I’m talking about you question your own eyes and say what you look at somebody you used to be in love with and you say what was that I wish I had some real people up in Hampton tonight I would set it off in
Here tonight I would start a fire in here tonight if I can find 10 folk with the Holy Ghost I’m going put these logs together and I’m going burn something tonight slap somebody and say let it burn let it burn let it burn let it burn
Let it burn let it burn I didn’t come to see your outfit I came to set a [Applause] fire there there there beloved you need to understand it’s time for the church to move to the next Dimension we have compassed about this mountain long enough uh repeating the same old
Testimonies and the same old experiences and wrestling with the same old committee listening at the same old lies we have compassed about it so long that when you open up your mouth to say something uh the people listening at you finish the sentence I’m tired of preaching the church folk I’m tired of
Preaching to folks who are looking at the clock and judging my message and trying to decide whether I have it or not I’m tired of preaching to folk who call me Doc I want to preach to somebody who smells like cocaine smells like liquor climbed up out the sewer I’m
Tired of waiting on the government to fix uh what only the Holy Ghost can fix uh we need to operate in the next dimension you think you’re a bad preacher roll up in one of them crack houses and start laying hands on people if you really got some power take your
Three points and your five Greek words and H shall Block B and go in there with the murderers and the rapist and The Killers it’s time to take it to the next Dimension we have played with ourselves by ourselves long it enough [Applause] oh will y’all help me preach tonight

Burning I feel a fire burning Lord let it burn let it burn let it burn Holy Ghost burn in this place [Applause] let me try to compose myself sit sit I’m just talking to you I’m not trying to shout you I’m just I’m just talking a
Little bit I don’t I don’t know how to do that fancy stuff but but I do like to think a lot when when when when I was when I was pondering when I was pondering this whole notion of instinct I went to the school of a lion and watched a lion raised in
Captivity born Behind Bars raised in a zoo the cage is the only World he’s ever known he has always eaten in the cage right at 2:00 the fetus come and slip it through the bars and he eats right over there in that corner they bring the water over here
And he drinks in that cage seeing that he has eaten and he now drinks and he has taken care of all of his biological needs in this world this Vortex this Matrix in which he lives I asked myself why why why does the lion pce in the
Cage why is he not comfortable in the cage he’s got water in there there he’s got food in there this is the only world he knows intellectually this is the world because intellect is based on past experiences things we’ve read things we’ve heard things we have seen intellect is composed of History
Right all of his history validates that this is the world but why why is he pacing then I saw the trainer come and be careful to lock the door if all the lion have ever known is the cage why do they lock the [Applause] gate come on I’m up in a university
Somebody ought to answer this question all of his intellect validates the cage and yet they are meticulously careful to lock it because in spite of his intelligence telling him that his needs are met his instincts his instincts keep telling him there’s something beyond that Gat I want to talk to somebody who’s
Been pacing around in your life and people don’t understand why you aren’t contented uh you got some nice clothes uh you got a pretty decent car you got a house your mama would have been proud of uh why are you pacing uh around in that house uh pacing around in that church uh
Pacing around on that job I submit to you my brothers and sisters is because down in your instinct of Soul there is a reminder there’s something Beyond this cage am I talking to anybody in here I want to find somebody Restless I want to find somebody who wakes up in the middle
Of the night and stares out the window and just wonders I just think there’s something else for me beyond what I gotth I want to find somebody who’s stuck on a job but you got a business in your belly and you’re tired of going to the same job looking at the same people
Uh dealing with the same things uh because your instincts keep telling you there’s something beyond the cage who am I preaching to tonight if I’m preaching to you I came from Dallas to tell you the gate is [Applause] Open touch your neighbor and tell him the gate is open now you got to make a decision am I going to stay where I’m comfortable am I going to stay where I’m comfortable or am I ready to go into the next Dimension slap somebody who looks ready and say let’s
Go let’s go let’s go you’ll never be satisfied till you go you’ll never be fulfilled until you go you’ll never know what you got till you go you’ll never know what you can do till you go you’ll never go until you make up in your mind
I can’t stay in here just cuz you like me in here I’m tired of entertaining you with my Consignment tonight is the night uh I break out of captivity tonight is the night uh I do what’s inside of me tonight is a night uh that I get out of
This gate uh and for the next three minutes uh I want some radical wow John the Baptist to give God a crazy Holy Ghost [Applause] Supernatural slap your neighbor and tell them there’s something else for me there’s something else for me I cannot die till I get out of this gate enough
Is enough I’m ready to take it to the next level who’s going with me tonight take a step into the next Dimension [Applause] [Applause] you think you praising God now if you saw what God had for you in the next Dimension you really would praise him your eyes have not seen uh your ears have not heard uh neither have any to your heart what God has for you watch this in the next Dimension somebody
Stepping to it right now I’m going in to the next Dimension I’m not going to live my life in another Cas the devil is a liar give your God some p [Applause] what the rabbi is teaching in this Illustrated sermon is a principle sir of release relase release that opens up the next Dimension so he says to John I know you don’t want to do this come on come on but in order for me to show you how to
Get into the next Dimension yeah yeah suffer it to be so he went down in the water yeah yeah nothing happened yeah he went under the water yeah yeah nothing happened here we go here we go here we but when he came up all of a sudden another dimension
Open up I don’t know who this is for but after all the hell you went through you got in trouble God didn’t say nothing you got buried in it God didn’t say nothing but when you get up God got got It I I I don’t want to got I don’t want to wear your [Applause] patience I want [Applause] to Something’s about to open in somebody’s life this is not an ordinary conference this is not a routine situation the Reason God has ordered this anointing in this place is because
When you come up God’s going to open up another dimension in your life if I’m talking to you give him some kind just I I just any kind of I I I don’t know how to my final thought about going underwater it is God acting out going in the grave that’s
Where the transformation occurs in the dark place you can take a grain of wheat and it has a harvest in it but you can’t get it out until you put it in a yeah yeah yeah yeah dark place a man wants a son but he cannot produce him until he plants him
Right amen amen in a dark [Applause] Place maybe we should start stop saying buried because when you bury something you don’t expect it to get up the Lord told me to tell you that last dark place you went [Applause] through hear ye the word of the Lord that dark place that you went in
Come on Doc and wondered where was God that dark place that you went through I have never known a great man or woman of God who did not go through a dark place I don’t care if he’s going to be the king of Israel he has to go through
A dark place I don’t care if he’s going to ride in a chariot behind the face he has to spend time in a prison yes in a dark place babies justatee in Dark Places seeds root in Dark Places come on come on Destiny Evolves in Dark Places come on Bishop I never could understand when Peter tried to stop Jesus later come on from dying he was trying to defend him and trying to stop him from going to the cross and Jesus said get the hints behind me Satan and on the other hand when Judas
Came and kissed him he called him friend yeah yeah seemed like you would have called Peter friend for trying to save your life come on and Judas a devil yeah for trying to take your life but he said Peter you’re a devil because what you’re trying to do will mess up my
Destiny and Judas even though you don’t like me you’re still a friend because what you’re about to do is going expedite my destiny if you can receive what I just said when you get home call all of your F all of your enemies all of your haters
Call all of the people who walk out on you and just text them and say thank you my destiny was in the dark place you made it for evil but God made it good and as soon as you come up join hands with somebody right now right now touch them right now touch
Them right now right now you’re touching somebody yes sir yes sir somebody in this right now Stadium yeah yeah you come to church you sing the songs you love the Lord but you’ve been in a dark place you’ve been pacing back and forth in a dark place yeah yeah yeah you

Place your man marriage Jus in a dark place you smile in front of the people Jesus gr and take pictures nobody knows that when you go home you’ve been in a dark place yes sir you feel buried in it you feel trapped in it sir your situation is so complicated you can’t
Explain it to anybody it’s so personal you can’t bulg it to anybody nobody understands that you are in a dark place you can’t even understand why people are jealous of you how could you be jealous of me when I’m living in a dark place I can’t understand why you would turn up your
Nose at me don’t you see that when nobody’s looking I go home to a dark place I can’t get counseling it’s too complicated I can’t tell my friends cuz I can’t trust them so I’m doing the best I can pacing around in this cage trapped in this dark place and
Here comes this country preacher from Dallas Texas and has the ocity to tell me God has not been buried me he’s only planted me if he would have buried me it would have mean I’m gone but because he planted me I’m about to come out of this squeeze your neighbor’s

Them and in my research to write the people who did the most amazing things the Ted turn ERS who started 24-hour news Cycles when 6:00 news was all there was the founders of Nike who looked at a waffle iron and a tennis shoe and threw ,000 at it and
Started a company that’s a multi-billion dollar Corporation the Oprah winf who walked away from a good job with good benefits come on which you were educated for all right to break out of the cage and do something you had never done before when I wrote this book Oprah said
I could have wrote it myself she said because everything I ever did I didn’t know how to do it I just had an instinct see if you have the instinct you can hire people who know [Applause] how John Maxwell in one of his books
Says if you know how to do a thing you will always have a job that’s right but if you know why they do it they will always work for [Applause] you intelligence is wonderful yes sir it loads the gun but Instinct pulls the [Applause] trigger if you’re going to move into
What you sense in your spirit you’ve got to move by Instinct Instinct moves with a timing do it now do it now sea turtles are born on the sand never have been in the water their mama doesn’t wait for them to hatch they hatch by themselves coming out of a dark
Place the first thing they do is start crawling toward the water because when you find out where you fit then you can flow in your [Applause] gifts thank God for the people who wouldn’t let you in [Applause] Their denial is God’s Direction he puts it in you I was just when I got saved he told Jeremiah before I formed thee in the belly I knew Thee I ordained you I prewired you I gave you everything you need to do what you need to do once you find where you
Fit how am I going to find it instinctively your gifts your talents think of what you do that when you do it you get energy from doing it all right think about the things that you do that creativity burst out of you when you’re in that place and drop everything
Else that’s got got you busy with stuff that you shouldn’t be doing and invest where you are instinctively gifted and God is going to bless your life I since I’m going to close I’m sorry I was so long please forgive me but when I got down into that lion
Cage thing yeah I since I was in the room with some people who’ve been pacing and I want you to know your gate is open wait wait wait wait wait the only thing that stopping you is fear before I leave the stage can I pray for what you are afraid
Of for some of you it’s going to be things that people said to you when you were a child for some of you it’s going to be because you tried before and it didn’t work and the devil is always using your history to stop you from your
Destiny if some of you you’re afraid because you don’t have the resources but if you can furnish the vision God will send you the provision stop being afraid of what you were predesigned to do join hands with somebody if if they will don’t force them because you either step into this or you
Don’t tonight Lord I want to rebuke the spirit of Frustration tonight Lord I come against the spirit of weariness some of us have paced ourselves to death 30 years old and tired Hallelujah 40 years old and out of gas we’re worn out from doing what we had to do and being what we were expected to be rather than doing what we
Were created to be now you said that you came that we might have life and have it more abundantly you you didn’t say you came that we might have church church and have it more abundantly you said you came that we might have life but father I see so many people
Having Church who don’t have Life tonight Lord I don’t know why you chose me to stand here these last two nights but I believe you gave me a gift to impart to somebody in this room I rebuke that voice that keeps telling you you’re too old I rebuke that voice that limits you by your gender and says no woman can do that I rebuke that voice that says you don’t have the right education the Devil is a Lie you got the right
Instinct I rebuke that voice that says you don’t have the money to fund the Vision the cattle on a thousand hills belongs to God I rebuke the spirit of fear the spirit of fear is stronger than and fear itself I rebuke the spirit of fear you will turn that Pastor a loose right now you will release that preacher right now that preacher is going to preach
Like he was created to preach that woman is going to flow in the gift that she’s got down on the inside that nobody’s ever even seen yet I pray for every person who’s been pacing in the cage tormented by an instinct that senses there’s something Beyond these
Bars for me I pray that they would come into a season of Courage I pray Lord that when they come up out of this meeting it would be like Jesus coming up out of the water I pray that the heavens would open above their head and a word of
Commendation would come down from heaven and I would even ask you for the sweet presence of the Holy Spirit to descend on this room like a do and prepare your people for what you’re about to do next that preacher is going to have to go to another service
Somebody’s going to have to build a building somebody’s about to birth a business somebody’s about to write a book somebody’s about to start a company when this service is over the next step they take will be a step in the next Dimension I declare it I believe it I
Release it I’ve seen you do it for me I’ve seen you do it in my life I know you’re going to do it for them bless them from the crown of their head to the soul of their feet in Jesus name amen now you just than him than him [Applause]
Than thank you Lord thank you Lord thank you Lord
