Jesus' Processing Plan, Part 2: full transcript and answers

▶ 0:00 Hebrews 5:4 no man takes this honor to himself but he who is called by God just as Aaron was. You can’t decide if you’re going to be a prophet you can’t decide if you’re going to be a pastor or a teacher an evangelist. You can’t decide that God places in the body as he sees fit you can’t be around prophets like I heard yesterday and turn into a prophet. Am I right am I what they said yeah. That means that everybody that hung around the apostles became apostles. And we only had what 12 initially. Hanging around doesn’t make you like them. You don’t want. To think of yourself more highly than you are you just want to be a follower and spend time with him and let him bring to pass his will in your life and there’s nothing wrong with being the best mother the best dad the best worker the best provider if that’s all God has called you to to be a light to the world with your behavior with the way you speak there’s nothing.

▶ 1:15 Ah. Uh second class about that why because that’s what he’s doing in your life. I knew a woman that won multitudes to Christ with a cake she would bake a cake and take it to a neighborhood home. Really. And then talk to them about Jesus. She wasn’t a preacher she wasn’t apostle wasn’t a prophet but man a cake ministry. Really. See we are the followers. We are the responders. Okay. The apostles were given three things how many things three things they were what given they didn’t grab them.

▶ 2:09 They didn’t get it at seminary in Bible college they didn’t give through a prophecy. They were given it by who. Jesus Christ they were given authority. After they were taught after they observed his authority and after being with Jesus they were then they were given authority they weren’t given authority when they were first called apostles the title doesn’t mean you got [unclear]. You got it. You don’t have this thing until he gives it to you. Oh man he called me an apostle hallelujah yeah well mark four or five and is coming up here. Don’t get so cocky. Are you there.

▶ 3:04 Secondly he opened their understanding to the scriptures to understand the scriptures and who did it Jesus did it Luke 24:45. You see you got to say Jesus open when you’re reading your Bible through every year and and and and seeking it say Jesus open my understanding. How many once you’re open your understanding open to the yeah that’s what you got to go to the scriptures for Lord what are you going to teach me today. And when he does for goodness sake write it down because you will forget it tomorrow that’s what I found out I found out that these spiritual tongue talkers and all that they were way above me man I had I found out I couldn’t remember all that stuff and I had to start putting notes in my Bible and writing things down and and putting notes in my Bible that some people think oh that’s sacrilegious writing in your Bible nothing it’s just a book with a living word in it and I need every help I can get.

▶ 4:06 Amen. Yeah when he taught me something I wrote it down and my old Bible had all these notes in it where God came and revealed things to me and then I could go back when I needed to to share with someone I could go back in my Bible and see it and share it like I had memorized it. And then they were filled with the Holy Ghost in Acts chapter 2. You see they had authority before they were filled with the Holy Ghost and that is contrary to Pentecostal teaching. You shall receive power after the Holy Ghost [unclear] they’re saying you can’t have authority before it and you can. You say you can have the scriptures opened up to you before being filled with the Holy Ghost if that’s what Jesus decides to do his basic plan is the spirit comes and reveals the word to you that’s his basic plan.

▶ 5:09 Amen. Then they were unswayable unstoppable and unchangeable you never read about them running off with their secretary running off with the church’s money having a nervous breakdown getting into depression oh you never hear it why they pass the processing plan. And nothing could move them nothing could sway them. And God is not a respecter of persons is he weak and all we may not wind up being apostles we may not wind up being prophets but we can wind up being people that’s unstoppable unmovable and unchangeable in our walk with God.

▶ 6:03 Stuff. You’re looking at me like that’s just leftovers. Ah. Revelation 19:10. Worship God. Do you know how many people I know that give me an excuse for not worshiping God. What’s Revelation say. Worship God what does Hebrews say offer the sacrifice of praise continually that is the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name what does the Psalm say praise ye the Lord over and over and over and over and over praise ye the Lord praise ye the Lord praise ye the Lord. Am I right and they give me a thousand reasons why they can’t worship and praise the Lord but see that hinders that’s a trick of the enemy that hinders the making process of God and it stymies the flow of the river of life in the church because out of our innermost beings these rivers of life flow so when you’ve got people that won’t respond.

▶ 7:19 You have a source of the river that’s lacking. Amen worship seems so simple and I’m not talking with about the way the Catholic church worships ritualistic I’m talking about worshiping him in spirit and in truth yes spirit and in truth you do it the Bible way you do it from the spirit you get the spirit connected and it works. And everyone should be coming through that door to do that worship God for the testimony of Jesus the witness of Jesus the proof of Jesus is what. The spirit of prophecy are we supposed to have the spirit of prophecy operating in the church yeah the proof of Christ in First Corinthians 14 why did the man fall on his face worship God and say God is really in your midst because.

▶ 8:18 As they worshiped and prayed and saw God his presence came. And they spoke the inspirational word and God. Convince that guy converted that guy convicted that guy and he said God is in you the truth it doesn’t say that he went out and served God. Did you notice that. It says he says man you guys got something here you ever heard that statement see they don’t want it but you guys got something here. Oh I’ve heard it many times that’s something here you see. Uh all right. Jeremiah 14:14 the prophets prophesied lies in my name false visions deceit and I sent them not First Corinthians 12 [unclear] 29.

▶ 9:11 Are all apostles what’s he saying. Not everybody is an apostle are all prophets what’s he saying not everybody’s a prophet God only had at one time one to three prophets. You read your Bible. One to three prophets from Genesis. To Malachi. And in the New Testament John the Baptist was a prophet then Jesus what came and confirmed his prophecy. The office of a prophet is very rare. Like Agabus who could prophesy the famine coming and it happened and the church could prepare to send relief to these people that went through it see that’s rare.

▶ 10:03 That’s the office of a prophet and they cannot miss they do not miss if they do the Bible says they are a false prophet. Now prophecy of placing people into the body I believe myself you can’t miss because God places into the body as he sees fit and if we’re only getting 80 percent right there’s something wrong. I mean God’s only 80 right I have a real problem with that and I doubt it’s 80 percent. Because they just ramble on and say a lot of words and on multitudes of word there is. Sin violations. A wise man spareth his word. The more you talk better chance you got. Of bringing in your own opinion.

▶ 11:00 There was only 12 to start with and then 15 apostles they say there was a lot more but they are assuming that the people that followed the apostles became apostles and I said listen you this is my private talk I said you can’t do that if it doesn’t say they were an apostle you can’t add to that word and say well you know they are if the Bible doesn’t declare it we don’t what declare it so we had Barnabas and a couple of other apostles that were raised up Paul. But folks it wasn’t a multitude and let me ask you this who started the church at Antioch where Paul was sent out from. What apostle started that. What prophet started that what teacher started that what eventually started that.

▶ 11:56 None. It was started by the believers who ran from the persecution in Jerusalem and shared the gospel in Antioch and people got saved and the church the apostles found a church in Antioch that was established by believers. Believer followers. Then the apostle could come and get that the structure and the teaching they needed to be a strong church. See we are important in this thing we can’t wait for the mighty men quote unquote of God we can go out and God will back up us also preaching the gospel could that be an amen. Your powerful church just because you’re here you have a tremendous destiny if you respond to his processing plan.

▶ 12:55 All teachers all workers of miracles gifts of healings do all speak with tongues again here’s where the Pentecostals really missed it uh if you don’t speak in tongues you don’t have the Holy Ghost well you can prophesy you can praise God you can speak when that comes there is an utterance but it have doesn’t have to be an earthly language or a heavenly language. Because he says all don’t speak in tongues and all don’t interpret. All right I grew up in Pentecostal churches I had to I had to work through these things you know you want to believe what you’re taught but when it isn’t working you got to go to the book and find out truth don’t you. And then you’ve got to change is there anything wrong with tongues no it is Bible and it’s a sign for the unbeliever but can we take any of these things out of its context and be extreme with them.

▶ 13:51 We can and we do. We do. If he isn’t doing it you don’t have anything but earnestly desire the best gifts and I’ll show you a more excellent way and that’s what I was sharing with them in the car [unclear]. Okay so you used to prophesy over people you have to bring up the past. I said yes I did but I found a more excellent way. And then they want to know what’s the more excellent way what’s the more excellent way prophecy does four things I’m talking from my experience and the Bible personal prophecy does four things what am I talking about. Personal prophecy that’s when I go to an individual one-on-one whether it’s in the church or outside the church and I got a word from God for you.

▶ 14:52 That’s called personal prophecy. The Bible tells us these things should be done in the church number one now personal prophecy I found does these things it’s why I changed and went to a more excellent way it makes the speaker appear to be someone special. Spiritually advanced. Above the rest of the sheep oh man they really got something how many know that stinks. You should know that stinks we are not to worship men and any ministry we are to worship Jesus and like. Like many times. Seasoned Christians that come up to me and said this thank you for letting God use you I go wow that sums it up you don’t understand well what a great man of God oh what a great message oh what a listen you ain’t got a great message unless he gives it to you so why are you giving credit to that guy.

▶ 15:59 Thank you for letting God use you I like that hey man is that a good statement that guy don’t get any credit or we have to give credit to the donkey to spoke to Balaam. Secondly. Publicly gives the impression that the receiver of the prophecy is someone special. Oh. Brother Thompson got a word from God he’s really special. Or. They expose some lack in his life and everybody knows it. Is it if you get into the word if you seek me that’s implication you are what not in the word and not seeking him.

▶ 16:55 If you love your wife what’s the implication. He’s not he’s got to buck up you know he’s lacking something here and everybody gets to hear it. Thirdly. Oh going back to number two if these people who are personally prophesied over. Do not respond to the prophecy and change from what they lack everybody knows their failure. Everybody knows oh man they’re a failure they didn’t listen to God they didn’t listen to the prophet and. The bottom line as time goes by these people get ashamed and leave.

▶ 17:55 Are you hearing me this is what happens with personal prophecies really look spiritual but I found there were problems in it number three it applies to others that they can do anything. They can’t do anything rather. Until they get a personal prophecy. When they got the Bible the sheer word of prophecy. Number four if the person fails to respond to the prophecy it seems the prophet missed. When in reality the receiver failed to respond. I gave two messages over in China both of them I knew were a word for that church the first church only two people in that congregation heard it because their minds were programmed. So strongly in a different way they would not even let the word of God.

▶ 18:54 Come to them but two people did I went to the second church the whole church responded. Am I right yeah yeah. Why because they had an openness to hear from God in his word and respond basically the whole church responded while I was preaching they were weeping everywhere profusely. And then when the call was given the whole church came up. Amen. See we couldn’t we can shut off God it wasn’t that the message in the first church was wrong it’s they didn’t want it. They can reject it and it looks like the prophet and so yeah. I made my first mistake as a prophet they brought up a guy and he wants to move up north California.

▶ 19:51 And they want the prophets to prophesy over him and so they brought me up and they brought another prophet up and if the three of us there and the first prophet oh go God is with you God’s going to bless you. And then it came my turn. And I said don’t go. You’re going to fail it’s not going to work out and if you do go you’re going to have to come back. Man. Daggers in the church. Two different words. So a couple days goes by and the guy come to him and I’m going to take the prophecy of the other guy and I appreciate your prophesy but I’m going to take his [unclear] I said it doesn’t matter to me it’s your life you can do what you want. He went up two months later back in the church why it failed.

▶ 20:45 I mean you know you’re known by the result not the enthusiastic. Enthusiasm of the prophecy. Amen so I immediately learned this happened very quick in my young life and so I immediately had to take this to Christ and go something’s wrong here something’s wrong. So they started I became very cautious and prophesied even though I kept doing it for a while all right then God gave me a prophecy that the pastor of the church is going to be a pastor of pastors what he was saying is people are going to develop and become Christian leaders. Not the church pastors from the community are going to come and ask him for advice and so my prophecy wasn’t clear. And then I was branded as a false prophet because I didn’t make my prophecy very clear.

▶ 21:42 So I learned again. Best to shut up until you can speak it right. Are you there. All right. So this is what I learned. I learned to stop prophesying. To individuals I can prophesy to individuals during the service prophesying to the whole congregation and just allow the Holy Ghost to come and direct it to that person and everybody receives edification but that person knew something in that prophecy that hit them directly. And then there’s no theatrics. There’s no. Misunderstandings. And so forth the second thing I knew I learned is during my message I could speak by prophecy and I do this a lot overseas.

▶ 22:41 During my message I can speak by prophecy Paul said you can speak my prophecy Revelation doctrine and knowledge all right. And I could just put it right in my message short directed to that person and let’s keep preaching. Thirdly I found I could just go to the person after service and just give them a scriptural illustration without even letting them think it is a word for them which it was a word for them an illustration and so forth and then they could get it without anybody knowing what was going on whether they failed or not or rejected it or not and it were. All right that’s what I learned.

▶ 23:35 Okay God called us to a more excellent way it says in First Corinthians 12 and First Corinthians 13 that way is love you know we don’t want to do anything to embarrass people we don’t be anything to exalt people we just want to be people. Are you with me church. Hallelujah. Unlimited abilities all can pray all can sing in the spirit to bring the presence of God who will convict people God. That God is in our midst okay. In Acts 2 they spoke the mighty works of God when the presence came in Acts 4 they spoke the word of God with confidence the end result is the word being spoken and it in a phase in Ephesus the Ephesians over in Acts 19 they they they prophesied they spoke the word of God by the inspiration of the spirit and we can all prophesy one by one in this dimension of edification exhortation and comfort you cannot be a prophet of an office of a prophet like John the Baptist and you may not be a prophet that can identify and place people in the body of Christ with confirmation but you can edify exhort.

▶ 24:52 Encourage the people of God every one of us and the excellent way is first love him who is love God is love we need to spend time with him that’s why you got to spend time with him and he says if I speak in tongues and if I have faith to move mountains and I have all knowledge and I get my body to be burned and all my goods to feed the poor if I don’t have love it profits me nothing I am worthless I’m just going through motions and so love is the high calling of God. Being with him taking on his nature. James 1:5 if any of you lacks wisdom let him ask of God who gives to how many how many oh. See he didn’t say do all have wisdom. Do all have love he said are all apostles are all prophets are all evangelists or all teachers no but we can all what have wisdom.

▶ 25:57 How many could use a big dose of wisdom. The church in this last days is supposed to be a revival of wisdom Matthew 23:34 I send to you prophets wise men and scribes and how do you know that he sent them. Some you will kill and crucified man who wants that ministry. Some you shall beat scourge in your synagogues where in the church the church is going to attack you. And they’re going to persecute you see when he sends you with that repentant message that is what causes the attacks if people don’t want to repent they’re going to attack. And get ready for the attack because it’ll come we’re on the radio now telling people to repent.

▶ 26:52 We’re telling conservatives to repent humanists to repent. Atheists to repent look out. The guns are going to be flying are we ready for it. How many ministers do you know that are being killed and persecuted. Yeah. Yeah what’s the problem here. He isn’t sending us with his message because if he did. A lot of people don’t want it. But it’s going to come. And this is the last day message this hasn’t had to be have you ever has God raised up wise men yet we’ve seen prophets to a major we’ve really saw teachers in the early 60s late 50s people that could really teach the Bible oh how how refreshing that was instead of just up there talking about their great faith and uh going through all these motions they could actually open the Bible up to you but we haven’t seen the wise men yet how many of you women would love to see a wise husband in your home.

▶ 28:08 Yeah come on how many of you men would like to see a wise wife you see this thing works this thing works on the local level. How many of you parents want your kids to have be have wisdom yeah I don’t want my kids running around like a dumbbells. And he gives it how much liberally but we don’t spend time asking for it it took years of praying for wisdom before God started cracking the door open. Literally yeah I didn’t let him I didn’t give it I didn’t let him have any slack every prayer where’s that wisdom you said. And I was asking for the wisdom of Solomon and I found out his wisdom was selective so then I began to ask for the wisdom of Christ oh Lord I got a little smarter.

▶ 29:05 All can possess and develop love. Everyone that loves is born of God and knows God it doesn’t say everyone that prophesies. Is born of God and knows God it says everyone that can we all love. Church can we all love absolutely is there anything wrong with being a strong member of the church that worships him prays to him and lives for him and letting that presence of God flow out of us into a streams that come together to bring results through certain ministries is there anything wrong with that no. No. The greatest of faith and hope is what love faith hope and love the greatest the number one is what love wisdom is the principle thing the first ranking things and all you’re getting get wisdom get understanding and good knowledge.

▶ 30:09 For lack of knowledge my people are destroy so I submit to you today if you want to become the best you can be in God and attain to the goal that he has for you number one you’ve already chosen to follow him from your sins am I right everyone here secondly you got to choose to spend time with him in his word to where his nature rubs off on you. And we know you can’t spend time around somebody unless they rub off a little of themself on you that’s why we worship and pray to get his character rubbing off on us see we are all changed into his image his image.

▶ 31:05 Hallelujah. Wisdom is important and it’s prophesied to be a visitation of the last day and we haven’t seen that yet and I challenge the pre-tribulation rapture people the mid-tribulation rapture people the post-tribulation rapture people the pre-millennials the amillennialists the post-millennials that there are things that have to be fulfilled before he’s coming so don’t tell me he’s coming now. And get the church hiding behind a return wanting to get out of this instead of the church pushing in to be a force in the earth. To bring peace on the earth. Hallelujah.

▶ 31:58 I don’t believe God’s given up on America just because you’re here this morning. He’s got some faithful people in America that he loves. And he can change America back again that’s what I see in my Bible he’s bigger than America he’s bigger than Obama the Democrats the Republicans he’s bigger but we’ve got to go through his processing machine. And if you’re willing to say God I’ll take your processing machine I don’t like it I don’t like the design of this but I see it’s the only avenue to be what you’ve called me to be would you stand with me.
