Part 6 - CREATION CONTINUES - The Wonder of it all 12/13/25

For five weeks, I've been trying to show you the wonder of it all. I've been trying to show you the unique plan of God for every one of our lives. What he's doing in our lives. If we're not careful, we will get so much knowledge unapplied that we're hearing these great truths, but we're not applying them to our lives. We have to be careful of that. We have to make sure that everything we're learning is changing us. It's transforming us. It's elevating us. If not, then it's all in vain. >> All this great information, you're going to get more today. What is it doing in your life? Amen. >> I'd like to ask you honestly today, how many of you see a difference in who you were four or five years ago compared to now? >> Amen. >> Then then we're doing all right. Praise the Lord. What difference are you seeing? Hopefully, you're being transformed into the image of his dear son. >> Amen. Cuz that really is the point of it all. Hallelujah. Amen. I tell you what we're going to do. I'm going to let you be seated because it's going to be a few minutes before I read my text. For the past five weeks, oh, and it's so good to see Sister Janet with us today. Glad she was able to get off of work and be here with us, her and her family. Brother Patrick. Amen. So glad to have the Villa Reels home with us. Praise the Lord. Amen. When we changed the services to Saturdays, it got hard for her because the place where she works doesn't work with her as good as they should. But she gets here when she can, and we appreciate that. >> Amen. >> Adam and Eve, >> was in the first tabernacle. >> Yes, sir. I've shown you how the temple of God was in our cells and our molecules and our genomes in our ribosomes, our RNA, our DNA. And I've shown you the great plan of God. But everything God's ever done, and this is saying a lot, was for these moments in time. >> Everything God's ever done, >> do you realize that, and I don't know how to make it any planer, do you realize that in 2035 that we are officially out of toes? Yes sir. >> I just don't know if we understand where we are living. We are not in an hour where we can play around anymore. >> That hour's gone of of not knowing if you're going to give God your all, not knowing if you're Listen, God has reserved you >> for this window. Hallelujah. >> He has reserved you for this window of time. He saved the best for >> last >> and the last will be >> first. >> Now I hope you heard what I just said. First in the nation. >> Amen. >> The last will be first. >> And so we need to always Now what happens in 10 years? I don't know. I just know we run out of toes. I don't know what the Lord's going to do then. I don't know what is. But I do know you can't find any more time >> after that. >> And I I know that Yahweh has he keeps perfect time. >> And I know sister Carolyn that we are we are literally at the end of days. >> That's why churches are emptying out. That's why hell is so angry. >> That's why the world is mad. Because folks, we're living in these last moments of time. >> We need to keep that in our forefront of our minds at all time. Now, one thing I did not go over with you when we talked about DNA and we talked about cells. How many's ready to go back to biology class again? >> Amen. There's something I failed to show you and it would be remiss of me not to point it out. Your body has cells in it. Every strand of DNA in your body, every strand, now that's a lot of strands. >> Every strand is made up of four numbers. Four sir, >> you have hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon. Now, why do I say four numbers? Because those four elements, if you will, are known by four numbers in the carbon scale. and their atomic properties. When you line them up, every thing in your body, those four numbers I just called out, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon, those four things have four numbers. >> 1565. >> That's every number. Every cell in your body is 1565. That's it. Your hydrogen is one. >> Yes, sir. Nitrogen is five, oxygen is six, carbon is five. >> Amen. >> And if you'll bring me my board, I'm going to show how I'm getting those numbers. And the reason that's important when is because the name of God >> is 1565. >> Okay. >> Hallelujah. >> Thank you, son. I'm going to show you that everything in your temple carries his signature or his name. Now, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon is what your body, every cell of your body is made up of. All right? And I hope you're not trying to read my handwriting. You're not going to be able to. Okay? Hydrogen is typically known by the number 10. But how many knows that zero is not a number? >> So you take zero off. Hydrogen is one. Now 10 will not work. Nitrogen is five. Where do we get that from? Because nitrogen on the atomic mass is the number 14. Well, if you want to get 14 down to its basic number, 4 + 1 is >> five. So, we have one and we have five. Now, let's talk about oxygen. Oxygen on the atomic mass is 15, which is what? >> Six. Okay. Carbon on the atomic mass is 14. >> Same thing as nitrogen which is five. Your entire being is 1 5 65. Okay. Now that's very important because that in your body is the four numbers of life. >> Yes sir. 1565. Now when you take the tetra grammaton which is the sacred name of your god four letters. Now watch this. Everything in your body is on four 1565. >> When you take the name of your god he has four letters that he is known by. Like an artist that signs a masterpiece. Yahweh has watermarked his creation. >> Every one of your 37 trillion cells carries four numbers. No scientists can claim credit for that. No evolutionary theory. None whatsoever. Now this is important. Yod which is the first letter of the tetetrogrammaton equals what? >> One. >> God is >> one. Hey the second one equals in the Hebrew five vav six. Hey five one five. So what I'm telling you, if you take these Hebrew numbers, yode vave, and you line them up into the Hebrew grammatia, each letter is 1565. And everything in your cells is 1565. >> Amen. Hallelujah. >> If you take the tetra grammaton yode vave and turn them on their side, you'll see the human body, the head, the shoulders, the back, and the legs. The even your body is designed after yode vave. When you inhale, you heard that See, everything in you is your God claiming you. Every inhale, every exhale is God claiming you. [sighs] Now, the Hebrew word for breath is nama. When Yahweh breathed nostrils into the breath of life, watch this. These four letters 1565 line up with the four elements of earth. All four elements. It's amazing when you look at how all four of the elements line up, which wi which is uh if I'm not mistaken, air. No. Yes. Fire, air, water, earth. Thank you. That's your four elements. When you line these four elements up, you're going to find out that the yode, the first letter, yode, is the life or the the animating breath of God. The hay is the mind. The vav is the holy spirit. And the hay is the body. So you have four dimensions. life which is your breath, mind, holy spirit and body that makes up all four. Everything is covered in perfection. So when you take those things, each dimension corresponds to a letter of God's name. No longer are you a physical creature with spiritual accessories, but you are a fourdimensional temple designed to house the four letters of the name of God. Amen. >> Hallelujah. >> And that's why the scripture said in Psalms 139 and verse 14, if you want to look at it with me, let's see what the word says. of Psalms 139 and verse 14. We praise you, Yahweh, for we are fearfully and wonderfully made. [applause] >> Marvelous are your works, as we know very well. Our frames were not hidden from you when we were being formed in secret, skillfully woven together >> in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw our unformed substance. In your book, all of our days are ordained for us. We were written even before one day ever existed. >> Oh, the wonder >> of it all. Hallelujah. >> Hallelujah. You may be seated. >> You need to understand your connection to God. It's the very spark of your mind, your consciousness, and your thoughts. The world teaches that every one of us here today are a cosmic accident. That we came from primates, monkeys, orangutans, langelo and jamangelos that we sort of wound up on this space rock. But according to my Bible, you were a designed temple >> created for the purpose of housing God. >> When you understand what I just said, everything will change in your life. When you grasp that you were made to be the temple of God, you'll stop living your life meaninglessly. You'll start considering your ways, your choices, your lifestyle, your daily activities. When you truly believe that you were designed for a purpose and it's to house the presence of God, when you get that, then you will begin walking as you truly were designed to walk. A vessel inscribed with the signature of God, breathing his name with every breath, shaped in the image of his letters, built from the elements that spell his identity. And do you think he's going to allow that creation [snorts] of perfection to be lost forever? You've got to understand you are not the mess up of God. You are the masterpiece of God. [cheering] >> Every one of you. >> You have his signature in every breath, in every cell. >> And he's not ready to take you to the trash yard. No, he's invested his very own rep uh rep uh reputation on how you turn out. >> Let's read Romans chapter 1 verse 20. Book of Romans chapter 1 verse 20. For since the creation of the world, the invisible things of him are clearly seen, his eternal power and holiness being understood by the things that are written so that they are without excuse. Now what does it mean? the things that are hidden, the hydrogen, the nitrogen, the oxygen, the carbon. His name is not written in some distant galaxy. His name is written in what's clearly seen, which is me and you, the living epistles of God. >> You are signed by Yahweh. Now when Yahweh created six days of man, he allowed also six temples of man where he placed his name. The tabernacle in the wilderness, the tabernacle at Shiloh, David's tent, Solomon's temple, Zerubabel's temple, Herod's temple. That's six temples, >> six dwelling places of God. All right. But I want to show you when every temple on earth came to an end. And while there'll never be a third temple in Jerusalem, I'll show you where the prophecy was made. Acts chapter 7 verse 48. Acts chapter 7 verse 48. Now this is uh Stephen about to be martyed. Read verse 44. Let's go there. Our fathers had the tabernacle of witness in the wilderness as he appointed. Instructing Moses to make it according to the pattern. This tabernacle was inherited by our fathers under Yesua. Listen. Did you hear that? The tabernacle our fathers built was inherited by Yosua. And they brought it in with them where they took possessions of the land from the Gentiles, whom Yahweh drove out from in front of the face of our fathers until the days of David, who found honor before Yahweh, and prayed that he might find a dwelling for the father of Jacob. And then Solomon built him a house. However, Yahweh [snorts] does not live in houses made with hands. Heaven is my throne. The earth is my foottool. What house will you build for me? Says Yahweh. Or what is the place of my rest? Has my hand not made all these things? Here's what Stephen just said. It's over. >> The six temples or the six attempts of man are over. >> Now, since that moment, he said, "There will never be another temple. There will not be a millennium temple." I don't know where these people get this from. Amen. >> The book of Ezekiel, you might want to read my book on the on that particular chapter. Has nothing to do with a millennial temple. But you see, if we can put God's temple in the future, >> we won't build it right now. >> And that's Satan's plan. Amen. Now, I want to talk to you about how God began building the temple. Since Stephen said there will be no more temples for God, since he said that in the book of Acts, God began building the seventh temple. And there have been great moves of God along the way on the earth. My mind goes back to the early 1900s with the Pentecostal renewal of Isuza Street. And then just before that at Shira Schoolhouse uh in that late 1800s, a great move of God came on the [snorts] earth. Now that move was followed by the great [snorts] healing revival of the 1940s and 50s and 60s. There was a time in America where you could go to one of those tents and get healed. David Terrell had a tent. William Brham had a tent. Aa Allen had a tent. Jack Co had a tent. Everybody had these massive tents. And you would be foolish to deny there was miracles happening >> in those tents. God was moving with divine healing. That was called the healing revivals. But if we're all going to be honest with ourselves, something has changed. >> Yes, sir. Churches that just 20 years ago were thriving are gone. Have you realized lately, my beloved friend, that in the last 10 years, there are no more mega ministries? >> Yes, sir. >> Benny Hinn, you never hear from him anymore. All the mega ministries are gone. There is no one that you there 20 years ago you could throw up a name Benny Hint. There's not one name you can throw up right now of a major ministry on the earth. >> Amen. >> No one is filling tents anymore. My heart breaks when I see people trying to put up a tent, trying to still go back to those days and nobody shows up. >> Come on now. The sound of revival is gone. >> Now, it was here. How many of you lived through some of those revivals? Mom and dad, y'all lived through some of those revivals. I lived through uh the early ones in the 1967s and 80s, but it's gone. I I went back to a church two weeks ago >> that experienced those moves of God. And it's like it's like a [snorts] >> I'm getting somewhere. You just got to wait. >> Everybody's like, "What kind of preaching is he doing today?" >> I know exactly where I'm going. When I was a young boy, people would fill their cars up to go to revival every night. >> Yes, sir. >> Youth rallies, revival, every night. We would load cars up and all go for the move of God. How when's the last time you seen a car filling up to go? There's something that is different. No one's going to brother Brandham's meetings or brother Allen's meetings or brother David Terrell's meetings anymore. There are no more of those men. >> There seems to be an unusual, and this is the word I'm going for, silence. >> Yes, sir. >> In the work of God right now. >> Oh, I promise you I know where I'm headed. churches that I grew up in today, you return and it's a museum of what used to be. >> Every church I grew up in, when I go to them now, you know what we sit around and talk about? >> You remember how it used to be? >> Boy, we used to have church, son, around. And it's a museum. >> It's a museum everywhere you go. I'm telling you, it is museums everywhere you go. All I hear in the land today is silence in the camp of the Lord. >> It's almost an eerie silence. Where is the ministries that are shaking the earth today? >> Amen. >> But notice those of you that are pointing here, notice something. It's still to the world dead silent. >> Yes, sir. >> I'm trying to teach you something today. I watch people still trying to manufacture an old move of God. >> They're like, "Well, let's have a prayer line or let's let's let's do it the WAY WE YOU LET'S" AND and and it's heartbreaking to watch it don't work. >> It fades away. >> Something's changed. >> And I'm going to teach you what's changed today. because every one of them are refusing to move into what God's doing in this hour. >> God's doing some right here where they will not leave yesterday >> to find today. THEY WILL CONTINUE TO TALK ABOUT THE GOOD old days when the best days are being lived right now. What God is revealing to his people. >> Amen. >> He is training for reigning right now and he's working in silence to do it. >> You listen to me. The noise of God has shut down. >> Yes, sir. I don't care. You can argue with me all day long. There ain't nobody having revival. >> I don't care what you just a few people falling out the floor is not revival. >> And there's a reason for it. Things were so loud that nobody would shut up and listen. THINGS WERE SO POWERFUL >> that nobody was learning anything. >> God was moving. And it was that movement that was keeping God's people stunned in their growth. >> YES. BECAUSE WHAT GOD'S GETTING READY TO DO RIGHT now is training us to rule in THE MILLENNIAL KINGDOM. IT CAN'T BE REAL loud for that. You got to sit down, open a notebook, open a Bible, and say, "Teach me. I want to be ready for that." >> God's working in silence. He spoke to me. He said, "My silence is louder than when I was loud. >> I'm doing something in the silence that's greater than what I ever did in the thunder and the noise." >> I believe it was one of the prophets that said, "I listen for the thunder, but I couldn't see what God was doing in the thunder. I LISTENED AND I FOUND UH THE LIGHTNING BUT GOD WASN'T working uh in THE LIGHTNING. UH BUT WHEN I SAT STILL AND HEARD [screaming] THE VOICE, THAT'S WHERE God was. >> I told you I'm going to get somewhere today. >> God's dealing with me about the sacred silence of this hour. When we look around, the world is loud. >> But when we look for Yahweh's house in this world, listen to me now, >> it's hard to find. You know why? Because what he's doing in us, he's not advertising. This final work of God, Sister Lori Merchant, he's got to get it right. >> How many times have you been working Elder Morgan and you just want to turn around and tell everybody, "Please, everybody leave. I got to get THIS JOB DONE RIGHT. It's too loud." Apostle, >> HOW MANY TIMES WHEN YOU'RE READY TO GET THIS THING PERFECTED, YOU DON'T NEED SPECTATORS. UH YOU DON'T NEED PEOPLE TALKING. UH YOU NEED TO FOCUS UH ON FINISHING THE JOB. [screaming] UH THE CROWD MAY LEAVE. UH OH, BUT WHAT'S BEING DONE IN SILENCE? If we're not careful, we could almost say God's work is floundering because it's so silent. But beloved, the great architect excels in silence. Do not be seduced when you hear how loud the world is and you cannot find the work of God in the earth. There's a reason you can't find it. He's hitting it. >> Hallelujah. >> I said more than you picked up on right there. >> He is there is no no there is no television announcing that what he's doing now >> he has blocked it >> from the world and even the church. Remember this. Architects don't need noise. >> They need silence. >> Architects. >> I didn't say the contractor. I said the architect. He don't need Why? Why? Because he excels in an architect is calculated. >> He's got a plan that he's been perfecting through six temples. >> Yes, sir. But and and those temples were all loud. >> You could find them. >> You knew where you could go burn them down. They did in AD.70. They burned one of them down. Oh, please hear what I'm trying to tell you now. Every temple God ever revealed to the public has been destroyed and done away with. But this seventh TEMPLE IS HIDDEN IN THE HOUSEH. SAID, "THIS SEVENTH temple is BEING HIDDEN UH FOR WHAT GOD'S DOING UH IN [screaming] THIS HOUR." HALLELUJAH. ALL THE WONDER OF IT. UH >> you cannot deny the work of God has gone silent in the earth. >> There is no major ministries anymore. >> No. Why? Because God's had to shut it all down >> and say, "I'm running out of toes." >> We got to get a people ready for ruling and reigning. And we got to do that silently. >> Let me tell you why the end time temple must be quiet before it speaks. >> Did you hear that? That's right. >> The prophetic temple, which is us, is now at the same moment of sacred quietness. The world is filled with loud prophecies. You got a prophet on every YouTube channel. The media is loud. Candace Owens is loud. Confusion is loud. But the builder's house that's being built, there has been a noise blocker put on it. >> Yahweh is silencing his people, not out of judgment, but refinement. He is teaching us right now to listen before we talk. Because used to we talked >> before we listened. [sighs] Brothers and sisters, it's fixing to get good in here. >> Hallelujah. >> What you have to understand before Yahweh said, "Let there be light." And he spoke. Evidently there was a long period of time sister Carolyn when he was silent. >> Yes sir. >> No new thing under the sun. >> He was calculating. >> He was ruminating. OH SOMETHING WAS HAPPENING that the whole world knew nothing about and they thought nothing was happening. But here's the thing. When you mature in God, you start talking a lot less and listening a lot more. Because if you'll do it that way, when you speak, there will be light. >> WHEN FATHER YAHWEH STEPPED OUT INTO NOTHING, WE ALL preach about when he said, "Let there be." But that was not the power. The power happened in the silence uh before he said, "Oh, praise God. " UH WHENEVER YOU KNOW THE PLAN, WHEN YOU UNDERSTAND THE PLAN, UH WHEN YOU SPEAK, [screaming] THERE WILL BE CREATIVE POWER IN YOUR VOICE. FATHER, >> for seven years in this building, my wife and I spoke in silence to the world. Nobody heard our message. Oh, I But I've got a book in my desk. When I die, y'all put it in a little museum. I've got a book I wrote in prison with my hand. And when you open that booklet, you'll see where I was calculating for three years. Oh yes. >> When you go to the first page, you'll see in handwritten uh ink it says, "And it will be called First Harvest Ministries." >> Yes. >> Me and him was calculating. Hallelujah. The world thought I was gone AND DONE AWAY WITH. NO, I was silent because I was getting ready to speak. in this building when we would preach TO TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE, AND IF WE HAD SEVEN, WE WAS HAVING REVIVAL. WHEN WE WOULD DO THAT, THE WORLD [screaming] DIDN'T UNDERSTAND. THEY MOCKED US. BUT THEY DIDN'T KNOW WE WAS GETTING READY TO BE heard around the world. Hallelujah. [cheering] >> Why? Because there's something in the silence >> that when you finally speak, you're no longer speaking what you wanted to say. >> That's right. >> Hallelujah. >> But you're speaking what you heard. >> Hallelujah. >> Before the thunder comes, there must be stillness in the sanctuary. If you are not careful, I need somebody to hear this prophetic word. You when God becomes silent in your life, you will begin to get anxious and nervous and fidgety and start wanting to shoot out like a rocket to find his voice. But the truth is, many times he's silent to see if you'll sit and wait for him. Oh, why? Because there's something in the silence. You're getting ready to speak. Yes, sir. >> You're getting ready to speak after the silence. Before the thunder comes, there must be stillness in the sanctuary. In the previous loudness of the church, and we were loud, there was a lot of things not right. But we were so loud and because God was moving in such a mighty way, we had no idea what the word hell meant or the word we we didn't know any of these things. Why we were so loud. >> Now, I'm not putting down on any of that. I'm simply saying that time has come and gone. And if you will quit talking about the good old days, and if you'll realize what God's doing in this hour, he's doing it in silence. But what he's doing is powerful. >> There was a lot of embarrassment that came to the church from those loud years. Aa Allen died an alcoholic. Some went right. I could go down the list. Jack Cole, everyone. There was things wrong big time. >> It was too loud. Nobody was training for reigning. >> That's right. >> And schooling for ruling. A lot of things were out of order while we were loud. So, I've come to tell you, First Harvest Ministries, before you desire the goosebumps, you might want to get the bumps out of the road. >> Amen. >> You might want to sit down and let some man of God get the bumps out of your life so that you can rule and reign with Christ in his kingdom. Yahweh is doing something in the silence of our Zoom meetings. >> When God told me to go on Zoom, that was totally out of my element. >> My element is loud. >> Amen. >> Amen. >> Up here, >> beating drums, hitting tambber. That's my element. >> Not in the quietness of a Zoom meeting. Not in the stillness of a Zoom meeting. >> God said, "I want you to go teach my people. And I'd much rather have preached to them people. Much rather." But God sent me in that silent place and he brought you there and every one of you. Why? He was doing something that the world couldn't find. >> I'd like to read to you from First Kings chapter 6 verse 7. If you'll turn there with me, First Kings 6 and7. Elder Morgan, if you'll read that for me. First Kings 6 and 7. And I always go back to the word of God in the Old Testament to find the pattern. And here's what I found. Amen. And the house when it was in building was built of stone made ready before it was brought there. Now listen, this represents the seventh temple now. >> It's being built right now, but it was built out of stones >> that were prepared >> before they were brought together. >> Now listen and read the rest of it. So that there was neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron heard in the house while it was building. While there was no noise. The moves of God in your past >> prepared you for the silence. >> That's deep. Hallelujah. >> Hallelujah. >> SOLOMON WAS BUILDING THE TEMPLE AND DAVID SAID, "WHEN WE BUILD THIS TEMPLE, no noise." >> As a matter of fact, people won't even realize what we're building. There not going to be one hammer, one axe, no noise. I'm going to build it in silence. [snorts] Yes, sir. >> Hallelujah. >> BECAUSE THE STONES I'm bringing in are predestined stones. They've already been prepared WITH THE LOUDNESS OF previous moves of God. Hallelujah. Yahweh always shapes his stones in the quaries in the seasons of crushing, ISOLATION, AND SILENCE SO that when the corporate househ begins to rise. UH THERE'S NO SOUND OF STRIVING UH OR DIVISION. OH, BUT [screaming] THE SILENCE UH IS THE UNITY OF ALL THE STONES COMING TOGETHER. >> Why do you think in this ministry when somebody starts making too much noise, I get rid of them? Amen. >> Amen. >> We don't want no noise in this house. >> The sound of hammering and division AND STRIVING. SOMEBODY hurt my feelings AND SOMEBODY GET THAT NOISE OUT OF THIS CHURCH. >> HALLELUJAH. >> THERE'S NO STRIVING HERE. NO CLANGING OF THE HAMMER ON each other. >> Oh no, there's a silence of unity. >> OH, [gasps] WHY DO YOU THINK WE'VE SET IN PLACE procedures and protocol to deal with clanging hammers? AH, BECAUSE WHAT GOD'S DOING RIGHT NOW IS WAY BEYOND [screaming] ALL THAT. WHAT GOD'S BUILDING RIGHT NOW IS SO BEYOND what you were ever a part of before. >> It's so beyond it. You might be deceived by the smallalness and the quietness of it >> because you're looking for what you always had, noise. You're looking for the move of God. [gasps] YOU'RE LOOKING FOR THE POWER BLAST. YOU'RE BUT BUT BUT WHAT God's doing now is sit down, shut up, learn from somebody, FORGET EVERYTHING YOU thought you knew. And let me bring silence among the people. >> Do you know why the temple is quiet? Ain't nobody talking out of place. Oh, there's a silence in the unity of the stones. I listen when anybody comes to visit us whether it's the feast of tabernacles or here I listen closely for a little clanging sir >> trying to build your own house come on now but in this house it's silent >> why one accord >> the stones were already prepared before we got here Now we're bringing it all together. Hallelujah. >> God's prophets are quarried. You know what quaried is? The stone quarry in those loud places of your life. Voices of destiny ARE CUT AND POLISHED in the previous moves of God, but they are perfected in the final move of God. The father does his loudest work in your silent season. >> That's why he said, "Be still and know." >> You don't have to cling. You don't have to hammer. You don't have to make any noise. Be still and know that what I'm doing in the church in this hour is more powerful than what I've ever done in times past. >> Hallelujah. The true prophets in this generation will not be talkers. They will be listeners. >> They will speak only what they hear. Because they've learned the holiness of waiting. Why do we need to learn to be still? Because the voice of Yahweh is getting ready to return to his temple. It has not done so yet. Listen, we're a few short years away from that promise. in Revelation and Yahweh will dwell with his people. But listen to me carefully. Before he can return to the temple, before he can do that, the temple has got to shut up. >> We have to go into holy hush, holy training, holy unity. And brothers and sisters, what we don't understand IN THIS HOUR, YAHWEH IS GETTING READY TO RETURN. And if the word comes before the structure is ready, we become destructive with the word. But when it comes after preparation, then that temple becomes creative. So much false doctrine came from the loud church that we have to learn truth in silence. >> Let me show you what that looks like. Watch this. In days gone by, we've not had a move of God unless we've ran all over the building. >> But when you're sitting somewhere in a corner >> reading about the upward journey, Yes. >> And those of you that are not reading it, I'm going to tell you why. And I'm going to make it plain. Because you think you know everything. >> You can't learn nothing. God sent you a prophet and a pastor and apostle to teach you. Brothers and sisters, this is where you need to be in this truth. Why? This is the silence. >> This is the silence. >> Hallelujah. >> Learning about Pashot Rez the Do you know the stuff in these books? Do you understand? Learn. Get in there. And the silence. God is building something. >> As you're learning to shut up. >> Yes, sir. >> And you ain't got to have no loud move of God. You can read that word, read that Bible, read these lessons, and he's perfecting you from the inside out. Why is he doing that? Because every move of God has embarrassed God. >> That's right. >> Wow. >> We can't be like the former temple. >> No, ma'am. >> This is the seventh temple. >> We have to go like John the Baptist into the wilderness. >> And and what does the Bible say about the number seven? Completion, perfection. We are we are the seventh temple. And this temple will not sound like or look like any of the previous temples. I'm going to prove it to you. I saw in my life some of the greatest church services that you could have ever seen in the 70s, the 80s, and then mom and dad 50s, 60s before that. And yet there was so much false doctrine, false understandings, and that's that's okay because it wasn't time to perfect it. There was a loud quarrying going on. Come on now. And God was pulling out stones in that old move of God, preparing us in the work wherever we was for the silent moment when the church would go silent. >> The silence of the saints right now is not passivity. It's precision. >> We're getting it right. here a little there. We're bringing all the here a littles and there a littles together now. And now our understanding of God. Listen saints, this is real to me. >> My understanding OF GOD IS NOTHING like it was in those loud moves. IN THOSE DAYS, I REALLY THOUGHT GOD DIDN'T LIKE ME >> BECAUSE I COULD [screaming] NOT LIVE AS HOLY AS MY grandmother was. >> Yes, sir. YES, SIR. >> I WAS YOUNG AND STUPID AND ACCORDING TO THE MESSAGE I HEARD EVERY SERVICE, HEADED TO A BALLING, belching hell >> every service. >> And I would SERVE GOD BECAUSE I DIDN'T want to go to hell. But one day I began to know my heavenly father >> and his great love for me. And you don't even got to tell me about no place called hell anymore. You ain't got to tell me about a place called heaven. I'm living there now. I found my heaven in Jesus Christ, Yesua the Messiah, who brought me to my heavenly father. But I didn't understand him. BUT WE WAS HAVING CHURCH. YOU UNDERSTAND? >> But it wasn't until he silenced me. I didn't never keep the Sabbath day holy. >> Never. >> But we was having loud church and we was having MOVES OF GOD. BUT THAT'S OKAY. IT WASN'T TIME. >> The perfecting hour >> is here. God shut it all down to get it all right. >> He has sent the truth to whoever has ears to hear it, to understand it. Amen. We have to be ready for what God's doing in this hour. The book of Habach chapter 2 and verse 20. Let's read this and I'll try to hurry along here. Habach chapter 2 and verse 20. Who's read the upward journey? Three of you. Amen. >> Point proven. >> Amen. >> We're here to learn. >> Amen. Read Habac 2 and 20. But the Lord Yahweh is in his holy temple. Let all the earth keep silence before him. >> Now you understand the silence of the temple. >> Shut up. >> Sit down cuz he's getting ready to use you >> and he don't want you to embarrass him like every other move of God has done. He wants somebody to get it right. Finally get it right. >> Learn it right. Why silence? Because when the builder walks through his house, the materials must be still enough to hear instruction. Every stone must stop vibrating on its own frequency. and align with his. That's how the voice returns to the temple, not through noise, but through tuning. The true temple of Yahweh is being built in the midst of a loud world, and it's being done in perfect silence. Nobody knows we exist. Our character is being prepared before we take on the voice that will wake the dead. The Bible tells us in the Torah that when priests were about to be ordained, and you can read that later on, Leviticus chapter 8 and chapter nine, when the priests were about to be ordained for service, they were required complete silence for seven days. Leviticus chapter 8 and chapter 9. When you were about to be ordained, not licensed, not no. When you are ready to be put forth into service, you could not talk one word for seven days. That was called ordination week. They could not leave the door of the tabernacle until the glory appeared. Only after the fire fell were they permitted to bless the people. Authority to speak on behalf of God only comes after consecration. Silence purifies motives. I'll prove it to you. When my wife and I were here silent all those years, you can believe there was one motive we never had. To be known or to get rich off the gospel. Why? Our silence proved it. >> Silence proves motive. When you can be silent with God, when he's not pouring out the windows of heaven upon you, there's a motive being proven in your life. The silence proves your motive WITH GOD. WHEN GOD IS SILENT IN YOUR LIFE, HE'S DOING it to find your motive. What motivates you? It separates personal ambition from divine commission. When you've been silenced by God, when he withholds platforms from you or audiences and opportunities, do you know why he held those things from me all those years? Because if I would have quit preaching this truth one day sooner than November of 2020, >> apostle, >> my motive wouldn't have been pure. >> If I would have said, "Ain't nobody listening to me. Let me go back to preaching what I was preaching that so I can be an evangelist." And if But see, >> loud, >> I could have been loud. >> But we went silent. >> Hallelujah. And when you go silent with God and you stay there, if you don't have a platform, it doesn't matter. If you don't have an audience that's not showing up to hear you, IT DON'T MATTER. YOUR MOTIVE MATTERS. >> AND THAT MOTIVE IS PROVEN IN the silence [screaming] that God puts you in. It's not punishment. It's preparation. >> HE'S ALIGNING YOUR SPEECH to his blueprint. >> Yes, sir. >> AMEN. >> OTHERWISE, YOU'LL BE UP PREACHING CRAZY STUFF LIKE I USED to preach. >> I promise you, if I ever find any old tapes of me preaching, I'm burning them because I used to preach some crazy stuff. [laughter] You know why? I HAD TO GET SILENT AND GET MY doctrines right. I HAD TO KNOW GOD'S MIND, HIS PLAN, BECAUSE HE KNEW THAT OVER IN BUSH, LOUISIANA, were two stones that was waiting to be brought INTO THE TEMPLE. BUT I HAD TO GET THE message right. >> And that happened in the silence. That happened, Sister Tess, when my YouTube channel would get five viewers. But it didn't matter to me. I had the truth and I knew it. And I proved to God, I'll stand still. Even when I don't hear or see, I will stand still. >> Let's go to Genesis 1 and two. I'm speaking to somebody today. I don't know who, but you need to know that what God's doing in your life is better than the loudest day you ever lived >> or the funnest day you ever lived. >> Genesis 1 and two read, "And the earth was outformed and void. Everything was quiet. >> Wasted and destroyed. >> Everything was quiet." >> Amen. Right there is your silence. But read verse three. And Yahweh said, "Let there be light." And there was light. >> He spoke from the silence. Suddenly he spoke. Every structure that Yahweh built began as a place of service for matured people to carry his voice of authority. The priest burned the incense. The prophet released the command. The same altar that absorbed the blood later produced the fire. >> Hallelujah. that flame that those priests would tend to. Do you understand how boring of a life it was for those priests? Have you ever thought about what they woke up every day and did? They did the same thing every day. >> Oh, come on now. >> They woke up, had their breakfast. Somebody said we got to kindle that fire on the altar. >> GOT TO GO LIGHT THAT MANORA. >> YES SIR. >> And I the priest again. >> When we going to have a move of when's the glory coming? >> Once a year. >> After the silence has been perfected. >> Hallelujah. Hallelujah. >> After you were faithful >> in the boring quiet prayer life >> when there was no hurah rah >> but yet you was printing booklets and putting them in the foyer of the temple >> every day >> proving your motive. See, when you almost ran from here, I told God, I said, "His motives wrong." >> If you will get the motive right, >> the glory will show up. >> Hallelujah. >> Those temples were boring. killing the same animals. And guess what? There was never a move of God except on the day of atonement. >> Amen. >> Amen. >> When the glory would show up after a a year of silence. >> Amen. >> Whenever you get tired of doing the same thing over and over for God, you ain't fit for this. Amen. >> Writing that same tithe check every month, helping decorate for that same Passover again, helping decorate for that SAME HANUKKAH AGAIN. [gasps] DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND? YOU ARE PROVING YOUR MOTIVE IN THE TEMPLE of God BEFORE THE GLORY CAN SHOW UP IN YOUR LIFE. HALLELUJAH. >> MOTIVE [screaming] MATTERS. >> AMEN. >> You're in the same church, >> sir. >> Doing the same three pilgrimages every year. Don't you understand? You priest of God. Woo! Don't you understand? The glory only came because somebody had been putting fire on the altar without fail. >> Amen. >> You will find your motive in the mundane. >> I'm gonna say it again. You will find your motive in the mundane. >> Amen. Amen. >> The things that don't look loud. It's not the the moments of your life where you're on display. >> It's the moments on your life where you're right where you're supposed to be serving in the temple of God. >> Amen. >> You know how many times my wife did not feel like sitting on that piano playing to four people? She's one of the best pianists you'll ever hear, one of the most talented sing. But she never quit putting her fire on [snorts] that same altar every service proving motive. [screaming] When God CAN TRUST YOUR MOTIVE, HE'LL BUILD YOUR VOICE. UH WHEN HE CAN TRUST YOUR MOTIVE, he will motivate you. >> [cheering] >> IT'S IN YOUR SILENCE THAT YOUR MOTIVE >> is being proven. >> Every week he wants me to write another book and I'm there's times I'm like my God another book. >> I mean we've already got 50 something another one. What else can we talk about? But I'm at my post. You understand? >> I'm at my post. WHY? WHY? BECAUSE I UNDERSTAND THAT if I can prove myself faithful in the mundane, he will trust me with the mountains. He will trust me with the microphone. He bo until YOU CAN GO SILENT, YOU'RE DANGEROUS on a microphone. >> Amen. >> That's right. >> [sighs] >> Every one of you in this ministry, from the back to the right, I've watched your faithfulness over the years in your assigned task. From the right to the left, every one of you, that man standing back there, Elder Shaflet, is standing in a mundane place. dealing with video. Elder Aniquitch is sitting there in the most thankless position in the whole church. Everybody gets mad at him. Me included. Mundane, thankless. coming before the service. >> Flipping on everything. Mundane. >> These teachers upstairs with these children. Mundane. Thankless day in. You know why? We're working on a building. >> We're doing it in silence. We're doing it in faithfulness. We're doing it as unto the Lord. Because when you do it as unto him, you'll be counted worthy for more. Oh, hallelujah. >> HALLELUJAH. >> If there's any junk at the church, here comes Elder Su in his truck. >> That's right. >> If these goats need milking, there comes the acres, the Austin. How many years you've been reading the the blessing to us mundane every week? >> Yes, sir. >> In the silence. >> God's building a building. >> In silence. How many years you've been doing watchman's now? >> How many years? >> Two watchmans. Three. >> Faithful when nobody shows up preaching like the house IS FULL. AMEN. >> WOW. WE'RE working on a building >> and we're doing it in silence, but we're doing it as unto the Lord. Hallelujah. >> YOU CANNOT SKIP THE ALTAR and ask for the microphone. YOU CANNOT SKIP THE ALTAR [screaming] BECAUSE WHAT HAPPENS IS WHEN YOU SKIP THE ALTAR AND GET THE MICROPHONE, YOU DESTROY the work of God. >> You embarrass the work of God. Why? [gasps] When at that hour of prayer every day when it's your time to pray look so mundane. Yeah. I your motive. See, see, see. >> Oh my God. Before Isaiah could prophesy, he said, "Put a coal >> on my lips. Take my iniquity away." >> Why? Because before God can speak through you, he's got to make sure that what you're going to say >> is what he would have said. [sighs] >> And that's the reason so many times I've wanted to take this microphone and blast my enemies, but that's not what he would say. >> See, do you know the restraint it takes? But you see, I'm not willing to give up the platform he gave me for revenge. I'm not willing to give it up now. I'M NOT WILLING I'M NOT WILLING [screaming] TO DO IT. NO. IF HE'LL FIGHT MY BATTLE, [screaming] I'LL STAY RIGHT WHERE I'M SUPPOSED TO STAY. >> HALLELUJAH. >> Listen to me. Hardly ever does God speak from heaven. Exodus 25:22. Grab it. I'm going to show you where God speaks to you from. Very seldom is it from the heavens. The pattern is otherwise. Exodus 25:22. Read. And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat. >> Hold on. Do y'all not hear that microphone, brothers? Can we please? It sounds like he is at the bottom of a barrel. Bring some brilliance up or something. Help him out. >> Amen. >> Let's turn our ears on. All right. Go ahead. Start over. >> Yes, sir. >> There we go. Thank you. And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubams, which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel. How will God speak to us, not from heaven, from inside the church? in the temple. I will speak to you not from heaven. He said, "I'll speak to you from inside the sanctuary." >> And that's the problem with many of you. Well, I'm not live, so not y'all. But that's the problem most of the world. Everybody's looking for the voice of God, but not the man of God >> and not the house of God and not the ministry of God. But he said, "I'll speak to you from inside the sanctuary." >> Go ahead. I was going, you spoke, Yahweh spoke to me last week through you about I was in that that quiet place and I was because I was going through some things and I wanted to Y and what I needed to hear through that quiet place to me out of what I was going through and lifted me up >> and that's why Yahweh told Adam, you are going to name every living creature because you're the temple. >> Hallelujah. >> I'm going to name them through your voice. >> Amen. That's why in Job 22 and 28, he says, "You shall declare a thing and it will be established >> because I speak not through arrogance but through alignment." Now, let me show you the problem with that verse. Are you ready? My charismatic friends love that verse. You shall speak a thing and it shall be established. >> Yes, sir. That verse is for priests >> that have been at the altar. >> Oh no, you don't just walk out here. Oh, I speak I I declare. No, no, no, no, no. Because when God has truly worked in your life, you are scared to declare many things. You're too scared to declare TOO MUCH BECAUSE YOU WILL NOT SPEAK. You will not speak until you've heard it in the temple of God. >> Hallelujah. >> You have to come into alignment. And you only come into alignment when you've been trained. >> I watch people on Facebook all day long talking stupid stuff. Uh uh this this little poor child told me today the reason Erica Kirk is guilty because she feels it in my spirit. I said, "Baby, you need to take your spirit and get it redeemed." Everybody feeling stuff in their spirit. Listen to me. We need priests that scared to speak ON BEHALF OF GOD UNLESS they know that they've BEEN IN AN ALTAR AND SANCTIFIED THEMSELVES. AMEN. >> We must rejoice. Psalms 29 and three. Listen to this carefully. Let me show you where you'll find the voice of God. The voice of God is not in your head. The voice of God is in the house. >> Amen. >> Amen. Everyone sitting here today listening to me preach, >> you're going to leave out of here saying, "Okay, now I want to hear from God." What have you been doing for two hours now? >> He's The reason you hadn't heard what you wanted to hear because it didn't come out the way you wanted it to come out. >> You're trying to filter it through your way of thinking when God speaks. Yes, Lord. Yes, Lord. Yes, Lord. Yes, Lord. Because I'm not speaking of my own accord. I'm coming straight from the Constitution, straight from the book. >> Hallelujah. Read. The voice of Yahweh is upon the waters. >> The voice of Yahweh is in heaven. >> Upon the waters. The voice of Yahweh is upon the waters and read. The God of glory thunderereareth. Okay, brother. Just get off that mic. I don't know. I just spent $1,500. I don't know why these mics sound like this. Go. Just do it without the mic. >> The God of glory thunder. The Lord is upon many waters. He's upon many waters. Let me tell you what the waters are. God told John in the book of Revelation, "Turn." He said, "I heard a voice and I turned to see the voice and it sounded like >> many waters." Because brothers and sisters, the waters of God that cover the earth today are the mature sons of God that carry his voice. They're silent people, but they carry his voice. And they have to flow in unity saying the same thing. And that's why when God removes a strange voice from among us, we ought not cry over it. >> That's right. Cuz God moves on the water on the government. The water is the government of God on the earth. >> There will be many people try to join this work, but they'll be speaking from a different stream. >> And when Yahweh gently removes them, you go crying like a little immature child. But it's only because you think you're part of a social club that lost a member. >> No. Yahweh's building many waters and we need those waters to flow together over the earth making one sound. The sound of many waters. Hallelujah. >> Hallelujah. >> Revelation 5 and 10. I'm trying to close. Revelation 5 and 10. Now this is talking about priests. Read >> and unto our God Yahweh kings and priests and we shall reign on the earth. >> Before you become a king, you must first be a priest. >> Okay? And that priesthood is where we all are today. The silence of the priesthood. the silence of the priesthood. The priest would offer up incense, petitions, intercession. And that's why mature prayer rarely begs, it builds. It doesn't ask for permission. It establishes alignment. Prayer is aligning you so that when you do speak, it's his voice on many waters. >> He has to trust that when you open your mouth, it will be in alignment with his word. >> That's why if someone offends you and your mouth doesn't handle it right, >> you have an untrustworthy mouth. You're still saying your own thing. But when you count it all joy, [clears throat] before we can move into that realm, there must be silence and training and learning and a bringing together in silence to ensure that we do not speak prematurely. During the name it and claim it movement, they had this revelation, but they didn't have the silent training. You cannot say what the father says if you don't have good doctrine. The church world does not have to come to this place we're in today. Listen to me. The church world doesn't have to come here. Only sons do. >> That's right. The church don't have to go silent. Only sons do. Only sons move to a little place in Mississippi and come inside of a little room and go silent. >> Amen. >> While we're learning, while we're training the father's mind, into our mind, the church world will never come where we are because they don't understand what God wants out of them. 2 Chronicles 5:13-14. Listen to this carefully. I want to show you what God's doing in our temple. 2 Chronicles 5. This is the temple of Solomon, the shadow of the seventh temple. >> Read. Yes, sir. And it came >> as the trumpeters and the singers were each doing their own thing. >> They came into unity. >> Read. to be heard. And when they lifted up their voice and instrument [snorts] >> when when there was no more complaining >> That's right. They came into unity and said these words, "The Lord is good. >> His mercy endureth forever. Oh no, my life IS NOT PERFECT. MY family's messed up. The Lord is good. OH, WHEN THEY CAME INTO THAT perfected place, then the glory of the Lord." >> Amen. Why do you think I've always taught you when one dances we all dance? >> When one is worshiping, we're all worshiping. Why? Because these trumpeters and these singers had to come into one voice. Oh, and when they did, the glory of the Lord, >> filled the temple. >> Amen. while we give up hope that the church will ever come into unity. And listen, how many of you have said, you know, there's so many denominations. I mean, how many of we must agree the church is never going to come into unity. Amen. >> That's never going to happen. You're never going to get the Baptist and the Pentecost that never. >> I've got good news for you. God don't need the church to come into unity. He needs sons to come into unity. That's all he needs. Amen. >> That's all he needs. As I close today, I want to answer a question. Pastor Von, do you honestly believe a ministry so small as First Harvest could bring that kind of a change to the earth? >> A people so small. Well, I asked myself that question the other day. I said, 'Lord, I know we're the Seventh Temple people, >> but we're so small. >> And that's when he sent me over to one of my favorite stories of Gideon. >> And I begin to read the story of Gideon. And here's what it says. It says that the Midianites were like locust, >> their camels without number. >> Yes, sir. >> When I calculated all the Midianites against Gideon's army, it was 450 to one. Gideon's army. >> All they had was torches. >> All they had >> truth >> clay pots and a shout. That's it. That's all they had. They had no swords, >> but they had truth. >> And I'll tell you what else they had. Obedience. Amen. >> They had obedience. The Bible said that when they begin to shout that the Midianites, every man, every man there be to turn on one another. >> That's right. And every 300 of Gideon's [clears throat] army, the Bible said, every one of them, I love this line, >> stood in their place. >> Hallelujah. >> Their weapon WAS OBEDIENCE. THEIR WEAPON WAS OBEDIENCE. GOD FOUGHT [screaming] THE BATTLE BECAUSE THEY stood in their place. Hallelujah. >> They didn't chase the Midianites. Did you know that? Go read the story. >> They stood in their They didn't fight handto hand. >> THEY WERE OUTNUMBERED 450 to one. >> All they had was truth. >> And by the way, the the 30,000 that left them >> all loved God. Oh yes, that's right. >> They are the church. >> They're the church. >> Those That's right. They were the loud church. >> THREE THOU 30,000 THAT left >> were all there. They were Israel. >> Yes, sir. >> I need you to hear what I'm trying to tell you. 30,000 WOULD HAVE ONLY BEEN ABOUT 4 to one. >> But when the church got there and started lapping, they was lapping too loud. >> There was too much noise for God to perfect the people. And the Bible said that they stood, they obeyed, and they held their position, and they followed their pastor. >> That's all they did. >> Heaven did the rest. >> The Midianites began to turn on one another. They slaughtered their own and fled in panic. >> Gideon's remnant army accomplished victory by posture, not pursuit. >> Keep doing what you're doing. Keep obeying God. Your victory is in standing where he put you. That's right. >> For seven years, Israel hid out in caves, harvested crops, and the Midians would come steal it. They lived in humiliation and fear. But Gideon's 300 men broke that cycle. They ended the oppression. They restored dignity. And they broke the yoke of generational defeat. Gideon's army is a pattern of an end time remnant. >> Small, >> set apart, stripped down, spirit-led, strategic, but victorious without violence. >> What did they accomplish? These men were silent. The Bible said all they did before they shout. See the power of the shout was because they had been silent. >> That's right. If you'll ever learn to shut up >> and align with God and his word and his truth, when you finally shout or say something, you'll carry the weight of heaven on your voice because you were quiet and you kept standing in your place. Amen. >> That little army showed the world that a remnant in covenant is stronger than an army in rebellion. Gideon's 300 are the ancestors of every faithful soldier in the sunship army standing against the Midianites of our generation. I've ran the numbers, children, as my wife goes to the piano. I've ran the numbers. 300 450 to1. I've taken the population of our planet and I've run the numbers to find 450 to1. I have found out that when Yesua, our Gideon, returns, >> if he opens the graves, all he needs is 30,000 from the beginning of time. That's all he needs. 30,000 to be 450 to1. He only needs 30,000 people from the last 6,000 years that'll come out of that grave having been silent and faithful and obedience and those that have stood in their place. >> Amen. >> I plan to be among that 30,000. >> Hallelujah. >> Why? I'm learning to stay silent >> and keep doing what I'm supposed to do. You elders that are watching me today, you may have one person in your state that you check on, keep checking on them. Those of you that you say it's small, it's silent, but it's sacred. You have to learn to see the work of God in the small things. Why? Because little is much when God is in it. If you will stand with me in this ministry and stand in your place and be faithful, you will earn authority to speak. And when you speak after you've been silent, there will be authority on [music] your voice. Hallelujah. >> I'm glad today that I've learned how to depend upon his word. >> Amen. >> When you know him, you don't mind the silence. When you know him, you don't mind the silence because you understand [music] what he's doing is bigger than you can imagine. If you have learned how to obey God in this ministry, you've learned the greatest gift anyone ever gave you. And the loud church. Faithful in [music] and out. Faithful. That sounds good, Elder. Thank you. Faithful in and out. Praise God. Had many tears and sorrow. Had questions for tomorrow. There have been times I felt so all alone. But through every situation he gave me blessed consolation.
