Redemptive Realities
This message emphasizes the importance of recognizing and receiving the fullness of what has already been provided through redemption by the blood of Jesus. Believers are encouraged to develop a personal revelation of God’s love and see themselves as worthy of His lavish blessings—not by merit, but by Christ’s sacrifice. Drawing from scriptures and the parable of the prodigal son, the message contrasts two mindsets: one that boldly receives inheritance and restoration, and another that lives unaware of what’s already theirs. The call is to stir up faith, embrace sonship, and prepare for milestones of provision, favor, and purpose already paid for in Christ.
Those Bibles around. Make Jesus glad and the devil mad. Say this together say, heavenly Father, I'm glad to be here today. It is a year of milestones. I thank you, lord, for the Word of God. Holy Ghost, shine your light on the Word, make it food for my faith, nourishment for my spirit. I thank you, father, that I've got the victory in Jesus' name, amen. Let's turn in our Bibles to two places, thank you. There Is that throat coat. Am I kind of rattling and my voice is a little bit raspy. That's all right, I don't care, maybe you do, but I'm just going to preach anyway.
Speaker 1:1 Peter, chapter 1, and also Romans, chapter 8. Let's read verse 18. Peter, speaking to the church such as silver and gold from your vain conversation, received by tradition from your fathers, but with or you were redeemed with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb, without blemish and without spot. So glad we sang the blood song this morning. All right. And then Romans, chapter eight, verse 32. One of my favorite verses he that spared, not his own son but delivered him up for us all. How shall he not also, with him, freely give us all things? And the New English Bible says it this way. And with this gift, how can he fail to lavish upon us all he has to give? How can he fail to lavish on us all he has to give? And so, today, I wanted to begin a series entitled Redemptive Realities. Redemptive Realities as I've said, 2025 is a year of milestones, and these milestones are lined up just like when you drive down any interstate highway and they've got the mile markers.
Speaker 1:You go out I-10 and O, or you go out and take I-45. I mean, it starts in Galveston, i-45 starts in Galveston. Mile marker's zero and it just goes on up, up, up, up. You get to spring. It's about 70-something. You know 70 miles. Every mile there's a marker. God has got your markers lined up. They're not going to come, they have already been paid for up. They're not going to come, they have already been paid for. I said they've already been paid for by the blood.
Speaker 1:It's not something that God's got to cook up, it's not something that you can earn, but it is something you have to learn how to receive. And you receive it how, by faith. You've got to know it's yours. You've got to know it's coming. So our faith, then, is based on knowledge, or understanding of the Word, or revelation of the Word, and that's why I preach things over and over again, because faith cometh by hearing. And hearing I mean you need to hear something more than one time, you need to hear it over and over again, because we forget, we're distracted, we neglect. I mean the children of Israel is our example. I mean everything that's written in the Old Testament is written for our admonition upon whom the ends of the age are come 1 Corinthians, chapter 10. For our admonition upon whom the ends of the age are come 1 Corinthians, chapter 10.
Speaker 1:So he didn't write all those negative things about Israel to knock them and to denigrate them. He did it so that we would understand that we're going to have to overcome where they didn't. They kept forgetting that they were blessed. They kept forgetting in the wilderness that they were in covenant with Almighty God. They kept limiting themselves, they limited God. As a matter of fact, not only did they limit themselves, they limited God Because what they forgot? His wonders in the field of Zoan and what he had done in Egypt, how he parted the Red Sea, how he brought water out of the rock twice, man, I'm telling you, he brought the quail. So many, so much, so many quail. They got sick eating them. It was almost Friday night. I was like so much barbecue I mean you just couldn't eat it all, but we did.
Speaker 1:So we have to have a thorough understanding about the currency of our redemption. Our redemption is by the blood, the precious blood of the lamb it was. He was slain. He was slain in God's mind before the foundation of the world. I mean that's calling the thing that be not as though it were. Was he in fact slain? No, not really, but he in the mind of God, he was slain before anything happened. I mean God's plan of redemption, it predated anything. And that's why I'm saying your milestones is not something God's got to cook up, it's not something he's got a laboratory out back. You know, hey, let me see I've got a milestone here for you know, joaquin, let's see Joaquin's milestone. Let me see, let me get a cup of sugar. No, I mean it's already there, it's waiting for him. So we've got to have a thorough understanding of what the blood has done, what it is doing and what it will do in order to actually receive all that God wants to lavish upon us. I say I like that word lavish. You know I'm working on my receiver. You know, we spoke a couple of weeks on adjusting our receiver.
Speaker 1:This is kind of another extension of this. I'm wanting you to begin to expand your vision. I want you to allow God to do lavish instead of just barely enough. Well, you know, lord, if I could just get rid of this ingrown toenail, I'd be so happy. If I could get rid of the toenail fungus, I wouldn't ask you for another thing, lord. No, let's let him give us everything he's got. He wants to lavish some things upon you. Glory to God. You know, jesus, I want you to listen to this right here now. You need to remind yourself of this. I've said it before, but I'm going to say it again Jesus didn't teach from the aspect of trying to get God to do something.
Speaker 1:Okay, folks, here's how you get God to do something. No, he didn't teach that way. Rather, he taught for man to receive what God has already done through the shedding of blood. That's how he taught. He taught from that standpoint, not trying. Oh, I hope God's in a good mood. Oh, oh, I hope I can persuade him. Oh, please, no, we're not begging. We're sons and daughters. He's got us on the lavish list. Some of y'all are going to get this this afternoon about 3 o'clock.
Speaker 1:You know I was meditating years ago on these verses on the precious blood. You know there's no blood like it. He has no rival, he has no rival, he has no equal. We sang it. His blood is stands alone, there's no blood of bulls and goats. I mean, that did something for the Old Testament. We've got a much better covenant found upon better promises, yes, upon better promises.
Speaker 1:They had forgiveness, but they had to have a continual sacrifice. Blood had to be shed every moment of the day. Fire had to keep going 24-7. I mean they were busy, busy, busy, busy, busy, trying to atone for the sin, trying to disguise it, trying to hide it. Sin could not be really eliminated, it could only be covered. But we have remission, it's totally blotted out. There is no sin problem. There's nothing blocking us from his lavishing gifts, except what Faith To believe.
Speaker 1:And I was thinking about these one time, and and you know I was thinking about john 3, 16 god so loved the world. I've, I've knew that god loved the whole world. I knew that jesus was savior of the world. I grew up catholic and they taught me some principles and they just didn't teach me that I needed to be born again. I've confronted my parish priest that Gladys and I sat under him for nine months going to instructions. She's a Baptist girl and she just was so sweet, she, she saved. I'm not even then, but I didn't want to raise my kids as heathens and I couldn't be Baptist. There's no way I'm going to the Baptist church. I tried it and tried a couple of times, and a hellfire and brimstone was too hot for me to listen to because I knew I was probably headed there and I didn't want to. But don't wake me up and don't tell me where I'm headed. I kept thinking, well, one of these days I'll get right with God. I mean, I really did think that, but I wouldn't let myself really say it. So she compromised, came all the way over with me and we sat for nine months through this whole and not one time did he tell us we need to be born again. And on the final night of the thing I kept patting myself on the back because a lot of those months was Monday night football that I missed. It was Monday nights and I gave that up. You know, I thought I was so spiritual.
Speaker 1:And the last night we had Father Paulison from the Houston Catholic Charismatic Center. He was pastor of the Catholic Charismatic Center. Have you ever noticed that big church on the Gulf Freeway, close to downtown, with a green roof on it? Catholic Charismatic Center. He was pastor of the Catholic Charismatic Center. Have you ever noticed that big church on the Gulf Freeway, close to downtown, with a green roof on it? Catholic Charismatic Center.
Speaker 1:The charismatic renewal came into the Catholic Church in the 60s and he was the pastor of that church. And he was a pastor that was born again and filled with the Holy Ghost. And you know what he did. He came that night to a bunch of Catholics and gave his testimony and he said I'm a drunk. Now, he didn't have it right. He should have said I was a drunk, but he had that. You know what they teach in AA I'm a drunk, no, you're not. You were a drunk but anyway. And he confessed being an alcoholic. As a priest, he confessed that he needed to get saved. He confessed that he had to do something to avoid going to hell. And he's a Catholic priest.
Speaker 1:Man, I made my head go tilt and it planted a seed. And when I did get saved, I went back to that other priest and I confronted him. I said how in the world did you not tell me in nine months that I needed to get born again? You got Father Paulus in there. He gave us all of it, but he didn't tell us that. What's wrong with you? I rebuked him. He didn't have any good answers. I got outed him. He didn't have any good answers. I got out of there. I shook the dust off my feet.
Speaker 1:You want to hold people in captivity. You want to hold people in bondage. You want to give people a bunch of religion and just hope like one day somebody like me just accidentally gets saved. Is that your plan? No wonder they need money. They need money. They've got a plan to raise money. I just think well, if you wouldn't waste so much money, you'd have a lot of money if you knew what to do with it. All right, so anyway, enough of the Catholics.
Speaker 1:But anyway, I knew these things and I was meditating on. It wasn't until I made it personal. It wasn't until I realized he loved me and that blood was shed for me. And what was that blood? That blood really was liquid love. I I mean, there's no other way to put it it's liquid love. There ain't nothing else to say about the blood of jesus except it's god's love in liquid form shed for you. There's no other kind of liquid could have, no other kind of blood could have done it. But he did it for me and and I got to meditating on that and I got to realizing all that love and all that sacrifice, yeah, for the world. But it wasn't until I appropriated it personally. That's what you're going to have to do about these milestones. He's got some personal things that have to do with you and his plan for your life and your ministry and your business and your livelihood and your family. It's personal Until you know I got to have.
Speaker 1:You know I knew a lady one time and you know she wasn't my favorite. But I mean I knew a lady one time and, uh, you know I, she wasn't my favorite but I mean I had to love her. But I didn't like her much because she's kind of arrogant and one of the things she'd say a lot. When I heard her say it several times well, I'm God's favorite, well, you know, it made me, aggravated me. But then, after I meditated on this, I realized what she was really saying. She had to get into the place where, just between her and God, god treated her like she was his favorite. And that's what I started thinking about. I started meditating. He treats me like I'm his favorite son. I'm not excluding anybody else, I'm not in competition with anybody else, but he just he's I'm his favorite. And then I understood I held that against her. I had to repent.
Speaker 1:Now did he pour this liquid love out and buy and purchase with a priceless currency that's worth more than anything? I mean I bought gold coins, in fact specifically Krugerrands, because why Well? I like the way they look, had nothing to do with South Africa, but they have a little copper in their gold coins and they're beautiful. They're rose gold and they have this antelope on the one side of them. Beautiful coin. And I remember having, you know, 20, 30 of them back in the seventies when they sold for $360 a piece. Well, right now they sell for $3,500 a piece. Pretty valuable. I don't think you can put a dollar amount on the blood of Jesus. It's priceless. But he paid that for me.
Speaker 1:Does it mean I'm perfect? No, no, did it mean Abraham was perfect? No, there ain't no perfect people anywhere. There are no perfect people in the Bible. There was one perfect. Jesus is the only perfect one. So it had nothing to do with our worth as far as our behavior, or anything else. It had to do with his love. He wants sons and daughters and willing to pay for it. Oh, come on, lift your hand right now. Got to get this in your heart Because otherwise you're going to leave lavish on for somebody else. You're going to talk yourself. You're going to let the devil talk you out of it.
Speaker 1:You know you can go buy jewelry and diamond jewelry, you know, and you can buy a beautiful diamond ring and it may three, four, five carats and it's beautiful diamond ring and it's gorgeous. It's a piece of jewelry. But most of the time if you just buy something like that, it's not really investment grade diamond. I mean you couldn't afford the ring. That it's not really investment grade diamond. I mean you couldn't afford the ring. If you bought a five carat investment grade diamond, that means it's near flawless and that means under a microscope you can't see the occlusions. It might have one or two. If you look at your pretty little sparkly diamond ring that everybody's going look at, that Well, it's got occlusions. You can't see it in the naked eye. Most people can't, but if you put a magnifying glass on it, it's all cracked up and it's well. That's why you can afford it. Because it's not perfect.
Speaker 1:Who wants perfect? You want to put it in a safe and lock it away and never see it again. I don't know To me that, I don't know that to me that just, I don't care about something like that that I can't look at. I want to wear the thing. If I'm gonna buy a pretty diamond, I don't care if it's flawless. We ain't flawless. But you know what. We're worth something. We're worth the blood of Jesus. Why are we worth that? Because he was willing to pay it.
Speaker 1:Get yourself separated from your personal worthiness. It's not about our personal worthiness, it's his worthiness, because now we're one with him, see, and since we're with him and in him, we're worth it. We're worth the price that was paid, because if you have a different opinion, then you're basically spitting in God's faith and face and say, well, you just got gypped. God, I'm not worth what was paid for me. You ought to know better. Is that what you're going to tell him? See, it's false humility, folks. You've got to get rid of it. No, you need the lavish. Everybody say I need lavish. I need lavish.
Speaker 1:In 1 Peter 5, peter writes to the church. He says be sober, be vigilant for your adversary. The devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about seeking whom he may devour, whom resist steadfast in the faith? Your adversary. The word adversary means a legal opponent. Actually it just means like a prosecuting attorney. He's after you. He wants to falsely accuse you. He's after you. He wants to falsely accuse you. He wants you to believe that you're guilty when Jesus' blood has cleansed you already. That's right. He wants you to believe you're not worthy when Jesus' blood made you worthy already. That's right. And what does he say? He says he wants to devour you. That word devour means swallow up, gulp down.
Speaker 1:I saw a video of a Komodo dragon. It's a big old, huge lizard. Biggest ones get three, 400 pounds. And that's what they do with smaller prey, bigger prey. They bite them and they've poisoned in their saliva and they wait. Sometimes it takes a month for a big buffalo to die. But eventually they'll get sick and they'll get infected and then they'll die. And while they're dying then they'll start eating on them. But generally speaking, if they can find a little goat, I saw a video of about a 40-pound goat, this 300-pound Komodo dragon came up on it and I mean it took about five bites and swallowed the whole thing Head, tail, hooves, legs, everything. And he went like this Gulp and you see that goat going down in his stomach and you could hear the goat screaming from the belly. I mean, you know it's pretty hard.
Speaker 1:You know when Jesus comes they're going to be at peace one way or another. I mean, the commoder dragon's not going to be looking for meat anymore. He's going to eat whatever. Dragon's not going to be looking for meat anymore. He's going to eat whatever Plants. I guess A lion will lay down with a lamb, but we ain't there yet.
Speaker 1:The lion is out to gulp you down. He's trying to swallow you whole. He's trying to swallow up any lavish that you get. He's trying to prevent you from receiving what belongs to you. Come on, praise God.
Speaker 1:And so as we increase, what does the Bible say? Revelation 12, 11,. They overcame him by the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimony. They love not their lives under the death. You overcome by the blood of the lamb and having knowledge of what the blood has done, is doing and will do, and you're going to say so You're going to have a confession. You're going to have a systematic discourse of what the blood is continually doing on your behalf to cause the lavishness of God to manifest in your life everywhere it belongs. Word of your testimony and love, not your life unto the death. What does that mean? It means you're never afraid. You are never afraid. You're never afraid of the prosecuting attorney. You're never afraid of circumstances. You're standing up. You're bold. The righteous are as bold as a lion. We didn't show any cowardice dealing with Iran. We just waited, waited for the right moment.
Speaker 1:You know it usually takes a month to get all those B-2 bombers lined up and they're all in Missouri. They're not where they belong. They got to get them outfitted. They got to put those bombs in there. They're huge bombs, they're 30,000-pound bombs, times two on each B-2. It took two weeks, what usually takes a month? Somebody's working overtime, Somebody's getting the job done, and then precision. I mean they've got to drop a bomb. It flies at 50,000 feet. They've got to drop this bunker-busting bomb and blow a bomb. It flies at 50,000 feet. They've got to drop this bunker busting bomb and blow a hole and then they've got to come behind it and drop another one in the same hole. Don't try that at home. I mean it's amazing. You can't tell me God didn't help them. You can't tell me God wasn't involved. It's amazing.
Speaker 1:And so we overcome. We're never afraid of the devil. We're never afraid of circumstances. We're not afraid of an evil report. Okay, I got an evil report. I'm not afraid of it. I'm not afraid of cancer. I'm not afraid of diabetes. I'm not afraid of glaucoma. I'm not going to have it. I'm not afraid of diabetes. I'm not afraid of glaucoma. I'm not going to have it. I'm not afraid of normal pressure hydrocephalus I'm not going to have it. So, as we increase in the revelation of the blood of our redemption, we've got boldness to receive. Now let's look at Luke 15. Get anything out of this. Today I want to build your faith. I don't want anybody left behind. We've got half a year left, plenty of time for us to prepare for the lavish. And Luke 15, I'm not going to read all of it, verses 11 through 32, I give you the homework today. You all read that sometime today. It's this parable Jesus spoke, the parable of the prodigal son Years and years and years ago, when I was preparing to start this church and I was preparing and I'd heard from God I hadn't yet met with Brother Osteen I was wanting to strategize just how I was going to tell him.
Speaker 1:And one thing I knew I wasn't going to tell him is God told me to start the church? Goodbye. I wasn't going to tell him is God told me to start the church? Goodbye. I wasn't going to do that. But I was going to tell him what was in my heart. Not God told me what's in my heart, brother Osteen, to start this church. I believe it's time for me to start the church, and I'm submitting this idea to you. You've got full veto power.
Speaker 1:And so when I decided to do that and I thought, okay, what's the timing? And it needed to be pretty soon because I'm you know, I'm behind schedule Should have started at the church two years before. I did. So I'm in trouble now financially because I've missed God. And I followed, I missed the witness. And so, uh, god gave me this phrase and he said start praying. This, this phrase give me the. Give me the goods that that falleth unto me. Give me the goods that falleth unto me, give me the portion of goods that falleth unto me. And who said that? Well, the prodigal son said that to his father in Luke 15. So I went over to Luke 15. I started meditating on that whole thing and I mean I got a boatload of stuff, you know, at that time.
Speaker 1:And so then, right after that, before I'd met with him, brother Osteen was raising money. Seven years of harvest. He wanted to raise missions money and this was I think I forgot what the year was, you know what in the seven, because we'd already given into that before. But he was having a special prayer meeting on a on an off, not like Tuesday night or something, and he had me up on the platform praying and I got to pray. I said I prayed that very same thing from the platform Father, give us the portion of goods that falleth unto us so that we can participate. So I mean, I got you know talk about, you know intelligence and little. You know little. And so then I did meet with him and, and, and he hesitated and I waited for him. I waited for him until after the first of the year. This was in September.
Speaker 1:So let's look at this parable. It's a parable about how God values us. Everybody say God values me. And so, uh, the two sons, you got the father and the two sons. Jesus is telling this parable. Obviously, the father is a type of the father God.
Speaker 1:And then there's two sons. I call them Junior and Bubba. Junior is the firstborn and in the Jewish household the firstborn has always got the double. He's got the double. He's got the double, double inheritance, double portion. He gets twice as much as anybody else, because the Bible says he's the beginning of his strength. That's sealed, that's, that's recognized. That's what that's. That's tradition, that's recognized, that's tradition.
Speaker 1:But it wasn't Junior that asked, it was Bubba. Bubba goes and says Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth unto me. In other words, I don't want to wait until you die to get mine, I want mine now. And guess what the father did? The father did it. The father gave him his portion. Let's just say it's a million dollars. I don't know what it was, but he left town. Well, now the father can't give him a million and not give Junior his double. Can't Everybody say he can't? I mean that'd be illegal. He can't do that. Now he gave it to him. As of that moment. You see, they've got a flourishing enterprise. I mean the pile.
Speaker 1:I think about the Ponderosa and Paul Cartwright. You know he had three sons, so they've got two sons. I mean he's got, listen, he's got a cattle ranch. He's got cattle that are multiplying every day. I mean he's just frozen as of this date that you want the portion, this is what it's worth. I'll give you a million dollars, but tomorrow it's going to be worth more than that. But you're going to get it now. So he had to write a check to the son, other son, twice as much at that time. But then it's, it's accruing. Do you see that? I mean it's accruing? I mean he's got oil royalties over there on the back 40. I mean he's got rare earth minerals that he's selling. He's got he bought gold Krugerrands when they were $300 and now they're 3,500.
Speaker 1:Are y'all getting this? Read your Bible, don't just sit there. No, get into the. I mean, make yourself part of the story. That's what I did. I had to do that because I had a house that was foreclosed on or about to be. My circumstances were nothing like this. There wasn't no lavish in my life, but I had to establish what God wanted that I hadn't received. Are y'all following me now? I mean, god loved me. Cut the covenant for me. I'm his favorite and yet I'm not receiving what I should. All right, so these two boys, you've got Bubba, who's the type of a backslider.
Speaker 1:Because what did he do? As soon as he, he got his, his money, he left for Dodge city and went to the long branch saloon, saw Miss Kitty, and the Bible says he wasted his, his inheritance, on riotous living. I'll just say wine, women and song. That's about what it was, because brother said he wasted it on harlots. So wine, women and song. He, he, he, he blew through the inheritance. So wine, women and song. He blew through the inheritance, bellied up to the bar and just got into the Texas Hold'em game and just blew it.
Speaker 1:And then he had to go to work. He worked for a hog farmer and then there was a famine and the hog farmer couldn't even pay him and no man gave to him and he's out there in the hog pen and has to eat what the hogs are eating. Have you ever been in a hog pen? Have you ever smelled a hog pen? You will gag. Won't go into detail how I did, but anyway.
Speaker 1:But you know what he realized. See, he knew he had an inheritance. At least he knew that and he asked for it and he got it, got to give him kind of a gold star for that. And then, yes, he blew it, but he knew he'd sin and he's in there and he'd come down to himself. I mean he, he is, I mean he just, I mean he'd finally ran man, this is terrible. And how many hired hands is my daddy got that have three squares and a roof over their head.
Speaker 1:I know what I'm going to do. I'm going to go back to my father's house. I'm going to say, father, I have sinned before heaven and before you. I'm no longer worthy to be called thy son. If you would just treat me like the hired hands, just treat me like the hired hand.
Speaker 1:What did he expect? He expected to be disinherited. He expected to be disowned. He expected to just change status. He had no revelation of sonship, he had no revelation of the mercy of his father. But he did have a revelation that he had sinned, and so he did repent.
Speaker 1:He went back, but all of the Bible says the father saw him come in a great distance. The father never gave up on him. The father was watching for him every day and he saw him way out there coming up the road and the father runs to him and embraces him. Can you imagine what he smelled? Like, father, I've sinned before heaven and against thee. That's as far as he got for heaven and against thee, that's as far as he got.
Speaker 1:The father says bring the best robe. See, there had to be servants out there with the father. I mean when the father left they all went with him. I mean they were standing around watching the whole thing happen. The hired help Bring the best robe. The hired help Bring the best robe. Glory to God.
Speaker 1:Everybody say the best robe. See, that's authority. Get those shoes. Get those shoes that are two-tone, wonder blue and navy blue, that are eel and ostrich, and put them on his feet standing. Everybody say standing and bring the signet ring. I want the boy to be able to sign the checks, I want him to be able to execute the father's business on my behalf, because he's my son.
Speaker 1:And bring the fatted calf and let's have a celebration, let's have music and dancing, let's have the glory of God, when a revelation of the Father's mercy and the revelation of the Father's love and the revelation of the sonship, the revelation of really the bloodline, nothing could extinguish the bloodline. Are y'all getting this. Now, the day we got saved, our bloodline changed. I don't know what your last name is, but it's irrelevant as far as the kingdom is concerned, because we're all named with the name of Christ, we're named with the name of Jesus. We're named with the name of Jesus, we're in his family. I mean, he's our heavenly father. We've got this royal bloodline and just because we stub our toe and mess up, if we'll just go ahead and repent, he just gets rid of all of it right now and doesn't hold it against us. Oh, come on, let's praise him right now. Hallelujah, the best robe, shoes and a ring.
Speaker 1:Now, you know, junior, they killed the fatted calf. They got fajitas. I don't think it was just fajitas, I think they had enchiladas, frijoles, refritos, flour tacos, flour tortillas, corn tortillas Both, gotta, both Got to have both. Anyway, they had a real party. And Junior see now Junior, let's look at Junior. Junior was not happy.
Speaker 1:Junior is the type of Christian who has not strayed. He's not strayed, he's there on the Ponderosa. However, junior identifies more as a servant than a son. You know, he's involved in all the cattle branding and he's in the calf roping and the Bronco busting and all of the, all of the stuff the hired help is paid to do. That's what he does, he, he likes to be out there with the guys and, uh, you know, eat with them and probably bunks with them instead of being in the house. And even though he got a check for double portion, I mean he doesn't really know what to do with it. It's just kind of sitting in his bank account and he has no authority On payday. He's kind of waiting for daddy to give him another check. He's kind of waiting for daddy to give him another check. And he said he's mad. He said, son, why are you mad? What's wrong? My son was dead and now he's alive. He was lost and now he's found. It's right that we have a celebration.
Speaker 1:Come on, man, get with the program. Well, you wouldn't even kill for me a skinny goat. Everything I have is yours. No revelation of what belonged to him. The father's just waiting for him to take over. The father would like to travel. The father would like to. You know, he's a widower and he's gotten married to a young lady that's 40 years younger and he'd like to take her on a trip and he would just like to relax a while. He's built this big ranch and everything, and he's got a son that doesn't even know how to function in business. Are y'all getting this now? So he had no revelation of sonship, no revelation of his inheritance, really no revelation of the bloodline. Jealous of his brother, he had no robe, no shoes, shoes and no ring, and yet he could have had one. He's got a closet with his name on it. He could have just gone over there and put it on, but he didn't. Are y'all getting this now?
Speaker 1:I'm talking to you about how you're going to have to get your faith engaged in your consistent confession, your faith engaged in your consistent confession, your systematic discourse of speaking about it engaged, in order for those milestones to appear. Everybody say my milestones are coming on See. So when the revelation came of Bubba's standing, you had the fatted calf, the music, the dancing, making merry, the celebration. That's the type of the glory. The glory is gold, the glory is weight, the glory is supernatural. It's both the anointing and it's also supply that we need now.
Speaker 1:We're going to need a lot of supply to do what God has called this church to do. It's my church and my mission. We all have the same church and the same mission. We all have a part to play. We all have a part to contribute. It's not going to happen until we're all on board. Are you with me? I mean, the work of the kingdom is suffering. As many of you as have not put on your robe and your shoes and your ring and you're not willing to do kingdom business. I'm telling you, we're all engaged in kingdom business. It's not, it's not just GWC, it's not just my God votes, it's the kingdom of God.
Speaker 1:Glory to God, hallelujah, you're getting anything out of this today Redemptive reality. So we're enlarging our receivers to receive all that God wants to lavish upon us and we'll see a mighty outpouring of the Holy Ghost. Come on, lift your voices. Give the Lord a shout of praise Hallelujah. Come on, shout the victory. Come on, let's shout the victory. Glory to God. Glory to God, hallelujah, glory to God. Did you get anything out of this this morning? Well, I enjoy preaching these truths and uh, you know, we did start the church. God, you know, god showed up, god took care of us. And uh, we, we got our milestones working. We've had many, many, many milestones in 30 plus years and uh, and, we're not through getting them. Amen, there's lots more to come. Hallelujah, glory to God. Thank you, jesus.
