  • 00:00:34
    William snin coming to you from with one
  • 00:00:36
    accard Church Ministries with uh this is
  • 00:00:40
    more or less a a teaching on spiritual
  • 00:00:43
    war Warfare from the standpoint of
  • 00:00:47
    discernment discernment of your own life
  • 00:00:50
    path and how to know for sure that you
  • 00:00:54
    are walking in the ruach that you are
  • 00:00:57
    are really hearing the voice of our
  • 00:01:00
    Master Yeshua the Good Shepherd because
  • 00:01:04
    all of us one way or another and again
  • 00:01:06
    we get a lot of questions about this all
  • 00:01:09
    of us in our lives have to make
  • 00:01:12
    choices and we have to make decisions
  • 00:01:16
    and it's not always evident clearly from
  • 00:01:20
    the Bible for example you know like okay
  • 00:01:23
    should I take this job or this job you
  • 00:01:25
    know should I marry this guy or this
  • 00:01:28
    woman you know the Bible gives broad
  • 00:01:31
    things about that but it's not like you
  • 00:01:33
    can open it up to you know Psalm 15 and
  • 00:01:37
    there okay you know get the job with
  • 00:01:39
    that brokerage firm no it's not how it
  • 00:01:42
    works
  • 00:01:44
    so you have to be ready to be open to
  • 00:01:49
    the voice of the
  • 00:01:51
    Rakesh and how do you do that and how do
  • 00:01:55
    you know for sure that you're hearing
  • 00:01:58
    from the Almighty
  • 00:02:00
    well first of all we read in John
  • 00:02:04
    chapter 10 Yeshua tells us this is a
  • 00:02:07
    famous Good Shepherd passage and he says
  • 00:02:10
    in verse 14 I am the Good Shepherd and
  • 00:02:14
    know my sheep and have known of am known
  • 00:02:17
    of mine so from here we get the the
  • 00:02:20
    sense and you know if you know anything
  • 00:02:22
    about being a Shepherd you know that the
  • 00:02:24
    Sheep very much know the shepherd and
  • 00:02:28
    will follow him
  • 00:02:30
    um and that that's just a fact of Nature
  • 00:02:34
    and we need to be like that we need to
  • 00:02:36
    follow Yeshua and to know him but that's
  • 00:02:40
    the critical component in all this is
  • 00:02:42
    how do you how do you know him well
  • 00:02:46
    essentially I mean some of it are just
  • 00:02:48
    common
  • 00:02:49
    sense we know him by studying his word
  • 00:02:54
    because his character his
  • 00:02:58
    love a lot of the um a lot of the
  • 00:03:02
    qualities of the Divine personage of
  • 00:03:05
    Christ are found obviously in the word
  • 00:03:10
    now additionally we get to know him
  • 00:03:13
    through prayer intense prayer not just
  • 00:03:17
    slap Dash Quicky little things but but
  • 00:03:20
    spending real time in prayer with him
  • 00:03:25
    and and also prayerfully going through
  • 00:03:27
    the scriptures not just you know speed
  • 00:03:30
    reading the scriptures as if you were
  • 00:03:31
    reading you know reader digest or
  • 00:03:33
    something you want to prayerfully study
  • 00:03:37
    the scriptures stop if there's a passage
  • 00:03:40
    that seems difficult or obscure and pray
  • 00:03:45
    pray over the scriptures and have this
  • 00:03:47
    kind of back and forth exchange because
  • 00:03:50
    as most of you
  • 00:03:52
    understand the the Bible is the almighty
  • 00:03:56
    speaking to us prayer is we in turn and
  • 00:03:59
    speaking to him so when you bring the
  • 00:04:02
    two together there's a very powerful
  • 00:04:04
    Dynamic and of course the other thing is
  • 00:04:08
    we need to spend time listening for his
  • 00:04:12
    voice because nowadays
  • 00:04:15
    especially there is so much noise out
  • 00:04:19
    there I mean you know almost all of us
  • 00:04:22
    have these phones with us and we're
  • 00:04:24
    constantly getting bombarded with you
  • 00:04:26
    know different stimuli and our our most
  • 00:04:29
    of us have a business life that is noisy
  • 00:04:33
    I mean we drive in noisy traffic and and
  • 00:04:36
    a lot of us have maybe we're listening
  • 00:04:38
    to Christian radio maybe we're even
  • 00:04:41
    listening to Bible you know a Bible
  • 00:04:43
    thing on on on our iPhone or whatever um
  • 00:04:47
    but still we need to have quiet time
  • 00:04:52
    because we understand that the voice of
  • 00:04:55
    the ruach is a still small voice so we
  • 00:04:59
    need to set aside time like that ideally
  • 00:05:03
    every day even if it's just a few
  • 00:05:05
    minutes so that you can because the more
  • 00:05:09
    you learn to be
  • 00:05:13
    quiet and
  • 00:05:15
    listen the more you'll begin to
  • 00:05:18
    recognize the voice of the almighty in
  • 00:05:21
    different aspects of your life so this
  • 00:05:24
    is these three things are very very
  • 00:05:27
    important um and again you Yeshua
  • 00:05:30
    teaches us in in to my mind one of the
  • 00:05:32
    most profound passages in the entire New
  • 00:05:35
    Testament John
  • 00:05:37
    17 his high Priestly prayer and Yeshua
  • 00:05:41
    says in verse three and this is life
  • 00:05:44
    eternal to know that they might Know
  • 00:05:47
    Thee the only true Elohim and Yeshua the
  • 00:05:50
    Messiah whom thou has sent so this is
  • 00:05:54
    kind of a big thing I mean I I think
  • 00:05:56
    just in the very last couple of of
  • 00:05:59
    videos we we did I quoted this because
  • 00:06:01
    this to me is quite a central thing we
  • 00:06:05
    need to internalize in our
  • 00:06:08
    lives because we need to know him and
  • 00:06:13
    you know we need to understand that you
  • 00:06:16
    know we have a unique perspective here
  • 00:06:20
    because first of all really since the
  • 00:06:24
    invention of the printing
  • 00:06:26
    press we we have you know it used to be
  • 00:06:29
    that the that the word of Elohim was
  • 00:06:32
    quite rare you you would have to go to a
  • 00:06:35
    church or a library or a monaster to
  • 00:06:38
    even get your hands on it to be able to
  • 00:06:40
    open it up and read it if you were even
  • 00:06:45
    literate and nowadays of course you can
  • 00:06:47
    get a Bible easily you know almost you
  • 00:06:50
    know every bookstore has one although
  • 00:06:54
    unfortunately it's harder to get the
  • 00:06:55
    King James Bible but in any event I mean
  • 00:06:58
    you know the Bible is
  • 00:07:00
    everywhere and we
  • 00:07:02
    forget that for thousands of years Not
  • 00:07:05
    only was there no Bible there was no
  • 00:07:07
    Torah there you know it was just
  • 00:07:10
    basically
  • 00:07:11
    people if they had an encounter with
  • 00:07:14
    Elohim it was through nature through
  • 00:07:18
    observing the incredible glory and
  • 00:07:21
    beauty and complexity of Nature and of
  • 00:07:24
    course this led many people in fact most
  • 00:07:27
    people into the worship of false like
  • 00:07:30
    nature Gods what today we call paganism
  • 00:07:33
    but it was a start and then from
  • 00:07:37
    there we see that in a much deeper way
  • 00:07:41
    the almighty revealed himself through
  • 00:07:43
    his Torah and then through the rest of
  • 00:07:45
    the Old
  • 00:07:46
    Testament um you know through the Psalms
  • 00:07:49
    and the writings and so on we learn a
  • 00:07:51
    great
  • 00:07:52
    deal about the nature of Elohim about
  • 00:07:56
    his heart and how much he loves us but
  • 00:07:59
    also we learn how much he hates
  • 00:08:03
    sin so that was step two and then of
  • 00:08:08
    course the the ultimate
  • 00:08:11
    revelation of the Father in heaven was
  • 00:08:14
    through the Incarnation of his son
  • 00:08:16
    Yeshua hamashiach you
  • 00:08:19
    know God Elohim came down among us
  • 00:08:23
    became man while still holding within
  • 00:08:28
    himself the full divine nature in a way
  • 00:08:31
    that we cannot really begin to
  • 00:08:33
    understand but it's an amazing mystery
  • 00:08:37
    and through Yeshua through his words of
  • 00:08:40
    which we have hundreds of them in the
  • 00:08:42
    New Testament and also of course through
  • 00:08:44
    the writings of the Apostles we know a
  • 00:08:48
    large amount about the nature and
  • 00:08:50
    character of
  • 00:08:52
    Elohim so that's how we can begin to
  • 00:08:55
    know him this is important so we see
  • 00:09:00
    from Reading John
  • 00:09:02
    173 that that there's more to this than
  • 00:09:06
    just you
  • 00:09:08
    know giving your heart to Jesus quote
  • 00:09:11
    unquote or praying a sinner's prayer um
  • 00:09:15
    because Yeshua said it is to know
  • 00:09:18
    him that is the source of eternal life
  • 00:09:22
    and while those two things I just
  • 00:09:23
    mentioned you know praying a prayer or
  • 00:09:26
    quote unquote giving your heart to
  • 00:09:28
    Yeshua
  • 00:09:30
    those can be very important but they're
  • 00:09:32
    not as important as moving in the path
  • 00:09:36
    and the direction of getting to know him
  • 00:09:40
    more and more deeply okay
  • 00:09:44
    see Yeshua says that we need to know him
  • 00:09:49
    there in in verse three and the word
  • 00:09:51
    there in the Greek is
  • 00:09:53
    josco it means to know on a deeper level
  • 00:09:59
    than just surface knowledge I mean like
  • 00:10:01
    we might you know there's there's a vast
  • 00:10:04
    difference between the what how we might
  • 00:10:07
    know somebody that checks us out in the
  • 00:10:09
    grocery store that we've seen a few
  • 00:10:11
    times and how we know our wife or our
  • 00:10:15
    husband profoundly different and we need
  • 00:10:19
    to
  • 00:10:20
    remember that we are the Bride of
  • 00:10:24
    mosia you know we are his bride and he
  • 00:10:28
    is our bride gr and so just like in a
  • 00:10:33
    marriage if the husband and wife don't
  • 00:10:36
    spend any time together if they don't
  • 00:10:38
    talk to one another about deeper things
  • 00:10:41
    not just say you know like you know nice
  • 00:10:44
    dayto day you know whatever I mean
  • 00:10:46
    deeper stuff sharing things from each
  • 00:10:49
    other's
  • 00:10:51
    Hearts they won't really get to know
  • 00:10:53
    each other they might know each other as
  • 00:10:55
    we used to say biblically but they don't
  • 00:10:58
    know each other on deeper mental and
  • 00:11:02
    emotional levels and that's what that's
  • 00:11:05
    what makes a marriage flourish but it's
  • 00:11:08
    also what makes our our relationship as
  • 00:11:11
    a Believer with Yeshua flourish is when
  • 00:11:15
    we get to know him we need to spend time
  • 00:11:18
    with our
  • 00:11:19
    bridegroom we need to get to know him
  • 00:11:22
    better and the more time we spend with
  • 00:11:26
    him the more and again I mentioned the
  • 00:11:29
    idea of Silence the idea of just turning
  • 00:11:32
    off the TV turning off the computer and
  • 00:11:37
    just pray and say Yeshua I want to hear
  • 00:11:42
    from you help me to hear your voice help
  • 00:11:46
    me to understand your voice and help me
  • 00:11:50
    to know your voice from the static of
  • 00:11:53
    the World the Flesh and the
  • 00:11:55
    devil that's a really neat little prayer
  • 00:11:58
    so do that and and you will begin to
  • 00:12:02
    have a deeper understanding when you
  • 00:12:04
    pick up your Bible to study the Bible
  • 00:12:07
    because that that's critically important
  • 00:12:09
    too but you know in this day and age
  • 00:12:12
    especially we need to try and I know
  • 00:12:15
    this is this is a challenge we need to
  • 00:12:18
    try to be more like Mary and less like
  • 00:12:22
    Martha in Luke chap 10 and I know many
  • 00:12:27
    of us have very challenging lives we
  • 00:12:30
    have so many things we have to
  • 00:12:32
    do uh it's difficult to pry away some
  • 00:12:37
    time for quiet for devotions for you
  • 00:12:42
    know prayer and and bible study but you
  • 00:12:44
    really need to do it and you know there
  • 00:12:48
    are things that we must do in our lives
  • 00:12:50
    you know whether it's a job whether it's
  • 00:12:52
    taking care of our home taking care of
  • 00:12:55
    our family all these things are very
  • 00:12:58
    important but we need to start I would
  • 00:13:01
    submit to you pairing away some of the
  • 00:13:05
    junk you know spending too much time on
  • 00:13:08
    social media spending too much time on
  • 00:13:11
    worthless TV programs things like that
  • 00:13:15
    uh you know you need to as it were take
  • 00:13:17
    out the trash so that your your thought
  • 00:13:20
    life and the life of your heart doesn't
  • 00:13:23
    stink so that there's room there to be
  • 00:13:27
    filled with the knowledge of Elohim
  • 00:13:30
    Hallelujah okay now why am I saying all
  • 00:13:34
    of this
  • 00:13:35
    well because even if you're a good
  • 00:13:38
    Christian you know there are conflicting
  • 00:13:41
    voices out there always trying to throw
  • 00:13:44
    us off
  • 00:13:45
    course what do I mean by that well you
  • 00:13:50
    know we maybe were watching you know
  • 00:13:55
    programming on Christian TV maybe we you
  • 00:13:58
    know reading books that have been
  • 00:14:00
    recommended to us and those the the
  • 00:14:03
    programming or the books might be
  • 00:14:05
    perfectly fine or they might not be we
  • 00:14:07
    need to be careful about these things
  • 00:14:09
    because you know it says in in Psalm 48
  • 00:14:13
    that Elohim is in the
  • 00:14:16
    north and that's both metaphorical and
  • 00:14:20
    literal but part of what that means to
  • 00:14:23
    me is that you know if you pick up a
  • 00:14:27
    compass that compass point will always
  • 00:14:30
    point to True
  • 00:14:31
    North because that's the nature of a
  • 00:14:34
    compass and that's what we need to try
  • 00:14:37
    and Achieve is that our Compass our
  • 00:14:39
    heart if you will should always point to
  • 00:14:43
    True North to Elohim but what happens is
  • 00:14:46
    if you get another
  • 00:14:48
    magnet you know like and bring it close
  • 00:14:51
    to a um a compass the needle will over
  • 00:14:55
    to that magnet instead of to True North
  • 00:14:58
    and that is the problem we have all of
  • 00:15:01
    us in our
  • 00:15:03
    lives things that come along ideas
  • 00:15:07
    teachings Concepts whether from the
  • 00:15:10
    secular world or from the church world
  • 00:15:14
    that are false magnets that are causing
  • 00:15:16
    our Compass to point in a different
  • 00:15:18
    direction and we need to be aware of
  • 00:15:20
    that because these other magnets so to
  • 00:15:23
    speak can lead us astray
  • 00:15:26
    so when we need guidance
  • 00:15:30
    when we seek
  • 00:15:31
    guidance and the answer is not
  • 00:15:33
    explicitly in the scriptures what do we
  • 00:15:36
    do well
  • 00:15:39
    okay first of all if you have a
  • 00:15:42
    trusted friend counselor partner you
  • 00:15:46
    know wife or husband talk to them pray
  • 00:15:51
    together with them ask their counsel if
  • 00:15:54
    you think they are you know uh grounded
  • 00:15:57
    enough in the faith to be a good and of
  • 00:15:59
    course if it's a pastor they ought to be
  • 00:16:01
    get advice from that individual but in
  • 00:16:05
    addition you need to do prayer and
  • 00:16:08
    fasting like some of you have heard the
  • 00:16:11
    testimony I
  • 00:16:13
    gave that when I was still a
  • 00:16:16
    Mormon uh
  • 00:16:18
    Elder and I was confronted with the
  • 00:16:21
    truth of the Gospel uh as is in the
  • 00:16:24
    Bible I spent a whole week trembling and
  • 00:16:28
    praying and and
  • 00:16:30
    fasting and in doing that I came to the
  • 00:16:34
    realization that you know I tried
  • 00:16:37
    everything else in my life I'd better
  • 00:16:39
    try just the simple faith in Christ
  • 00:16:43
    trusting in Him so in the same way
  • 00:16:46
    prayer and fasting is a way of purifying
  • 00:16:50
    your heart purifying your spirit and
  • 00:16:54
    again you know and I say this whenever I
  • 00:16:56
    talk about fasting when I'm saying
  • 00:16:58
    fasting
  • 00:16:59
    you know there may be health reasons why
  • 00:17:01
    you can't literally fast in the sense of
  • 00:17:04
    no food at
  • 00:17:06
    all but you can do like a Daniel Fast
  • 00:17:09
    where you just eat simple foods like
  • 00:17:11
    vegetables and legumes and things of
  • 00:17:13
    that
  • 00:17:14
    nature um whatever you have to do I mean
  • 00:17:17
    if you have health conditions then that
  • 00:17:20
    should take priority but you need to
  • 00:17:23
    fast in some way from things that
  • 00:17:26
    normally give you enjoyment
  • 00:17:29
    because that is how you build up your
  • 00:17:31
    spiritual muscles by prayer and by
  • 00:17:34
    fasting and I I I've done several videos
  • 00:17:37
    on this I don't want to be labor the
  • 00:17:38
    point but that is how you purify your
  • 00:17:42
    heart it's by prayer which is touching
  • 00:17:45
    base with heaven with the almighty King
  • 00:17:48
    of the universe but also with fasting
  • 00:17:51
    now here's the
  • 00:17:54
    thing those two practices can focus our
  • 00:17:57
    minds but we need to remember and and
  • 00:17:59
    some people don't understand this that
  • 00:18:02
    when we get answers quote
  • 00:18:05
    unquote those answers can be from one of
  • 00:18:09
    three places they can be from our own
  • 00:18:13
    carnal nature our own
  • 00:18:16
    desires they can be from the ruak kodesh
  • 00:18:21
    the Holy Spirit or and this is the scary
  • 00:18:24
    thing they can be from the evil one
  • 00:18:29
    because he will be more than happy to
  • 00:18:31
    slip in there and try to set you off
  • 00:18:35
    course as it were following a different
  • 00:18:37
    magnet so this is where the word comes
  • 00:18:39
    in handy this is where knowing the
  • 00:18:42
    scriptures comes in handy because I mean
  • 00:18:46
    I have had
  • 00:18:47
    people over the years contact us with
  • 00:18:51
    some of the most strange
  • 00:18:53
    teachings
  • 00:18:55
    um and and I just you know you wonder
  • 00:18:58
    how are are these people even struggling
  • 00:19:00
    with this idea you know like the idea of
  • 00:19:02
    you know polygamy or like the idea of
  • 00:19:07
    um well you know there is a church out
  • 00:19:10
    in where I used to be in Seattle where
  • 00:19:12
    the pastors started to teach that you
  • 00:19:15
    know the members of the congregation is
  • 00:19:17
    part of the worship you know both the
  • 00:19:20
    men and women should strip down to their
  • 00:19:23
    to be topless and to dance before the
  • 00:19:26
    Lord and you know immediately Ely you
  • 00:19:29
    know anybody in that congregation their
  • 00:19:31
    alarm Bell should go off but see the
  • 00:19:35
    flesh will get in there and there's a
  • 00:19:37
    titilation you know if you'll pardon the
  • 00:19:38
    expression that that that that that
  • 00:19:41
    makes your carnal nature just rise up
  • 00:19:43
    and say yeah I want more of that and you
  • 00:19:46
    need to beat that down again through
  • 00:19:49
    studying the word in prayer and fasting
  • 00:19:52
    um so that's the problem beyond that
  • 00:19:57
    what I recommend if you if you receive
  • 00:19:59
    an
  • 00:20:01
    Impulse if you're seeking an answer
  • 00:20:03
    about something and you think you may
  • 00:20:06
    have
  • 00:20:07
    it whether it's from another individual
  • 00:20:10
    or whether it just sort of comes to you
  • 00:20:12
    in your Quiet Moments you need to do
  • 00:20:15
    Warfare and this is the kind of a
  • 00:20:17
    critically core component of what I'm
  • 00:20:19
    talking about in this teaching okay we
  • 00:20:22
    have a prayer that we have been using oh
  • 00:20:25
    my word for well at least 30 years
  • 00:20:29
    I think it's actually in Blood on the
  • 00:20:31
    doorpost which is which is believe it or
  • 00:20:33
    not now over 30 years old and it's
  • 00:20:36
    basically this you
  • 00:20:38
    know father in the name of Yeshua
  • 00:20:41
    hamashiach I bind right now all false
  • 00:20:44
    gifts false tongues vain imaginations
  • 00:20:47
    counterfeit gifts lying signs and
  • 00:20:49
    wonders in the accuser Before the Throne
  • 00:20:52
    and father in yeshua's mighty name I
  • 00:20:55
    loose the spirit of truth I loose the
  • 00:20:58
    spirit of of praise worship and
  • 00:20:59
    intercession and the spirit of power and
  • 00:21:02
    love and of a sound mind in the mighty
  • 00:21:04
    name of Yeshua hamashiach oh
  • 00:21:07
    me and that prayer is on our website
  • 00:21:11
    it's called the prayer for discernment
  • 00:21:14
    and what that does is that does Warfare
  • 00:21:17
    against the
  • 00:21:18
    Demonic I if you are again this is
  • 00:21:22
    important if you are walking in truth
  • 00:21:24
    and doing your I mean nobody is perfect
  • 00:21:27
    we understand that
  • 00:21:30
    but if you're doing your best to keep
  • 00:21:31
    his Commandments and walk in his truth
  • 00:21:35
    if you pray a prayer like that that will
  • 00:21:37
    drive out the Demonic okay and that will
  • 00:21:42
    eliminate onethird of your dilemma the
  • 00:21:46
    other thing the other two things are
  • 00:21:48
    your own carnal nature and or the ruak
  • 00:21:51
    hakodesh that is your other two options
  • 00:21:54
    so you know once you've done that
  • 00:21:58
    and you're down to two
  • 00:22:01
    things then you need to do more prayer
  • 00:22:03
    and fasting I know this sounds like a
  • 00:22:05
    lot of stuff but I'm talking about major
  • 00:22:08
    decisions here I'm talking about you
  • 00:22:10
    know job choices where to move you know
  • 00:22:14
    what sort of individual to marry I mean
  • 00:22:17
    these are these are Big life decisions
  • 00:22:21
    particularly marriage because that is
  • 00:22:24
    that is probably other than the decision
  • 00:22:26
    to accept Christ that's probably
  • 00:22:28
    probably the most important decision you
  • 00:22:30
    will ever make is is to choose your
  • 00:22:33
    spouse so you need to really be praying
  • 00:22:35
    and fasting about these
  • 00:22:38
    things and
  • 00:22:41
    then one final thing to consider in all
  • 00:22:44
    this is after you've gone through this
  • 00:22:46
    kind of sifting process where you've
  • 00:22:49
    really sought The Rock and you feel like
  • 00:22:52
    you get an
  • 00:22:54
    answer that answer should give you
  • 00:22:58
    shalom
  • 00:23:00
    piece
  • 00:23:01
    even maybe it's not the answer you
  • 00:23:05
    want you know maybe you know let's say
  • 00:23:08
    you've got a job opportunity and it
  • 00:23:11
    looks really good and it's got good pay
  • 00:23:15
    and all that
  • 00:23:16
    stuff but you feel like The Ruck is
  • 00:23:20
    saying no go to this job even though it
  • 00:23:23
    may pay
  • 00:23:24
    less but the ruach knows the future you
  • 00:23:27
    don't
  • 00:23:29
    and if you feel peace if you feel
  • 00:23:32
    Shalom with the choice that you're
  • 00:23:35
    experiencing it's probably from Heaven
  • 00:23:38
    because the devil doesn't do well with
  • 00:23:41
    shalom it's very hard for him to fake
  • 00:23:45
    Shalom and so even if your flesh would
  • 00:23:49
    rather choose the other thing go with
  • 00:23:51
    where you feel this deep abiding peace
  • 00:23:54
    because Yeshua says you know Shalom
  • 00:23:57
    peace be with with you peace I give unto
  • 00:24:00
    you not as the world gives give I unto
  • 00:24:03
    you and that is that's one of the most
  • 00:24:06
    important gifts every Christian can have
  • 00:24:09
    and that every Christian should
  • 00:24:11
    cultivate so now the other thing is to
  • 00:24:15
    pray you know once you've kind of
  • 00:24:17
    arrived at that point is to pray to get
  • 00:24:20
    sort of a second confirmation a second
  • 00:24:25
    witness and this could be either in the
  • 00:24:27
    form of a friend
  • 00:24:28
    or a pastor or even you know like I've
  • 00:24:32
    had occasions where I'll be trying to
  • 00:24:35
    make some sort of decision on her and
  • 00:24:37
    you know I'll be I'll just open up the
  • 00:24:39
    Bible and there's this passage and you
  • 00:24:41
    know something I wasn't even looking for
  • 00:24:44
    and it's like bam you know that's a
  • 00:24:46
    second witness it might be something you
  • 00:24:49
    you you know you hear on some Christian
  • 00:24:51
    teaching you know it could be any number
  • 00:24:54
    of things but look you know cuz the
  • 00:24:56
    Bible tells us out of the mouth of or
  • 00:24:58
    three Witnesses all things should be
  • 00:25:01
    established so look for that second
  • 00:25:03
    witness and again it could be any number
  • 00:25:06
    of things and one final thought before I
  • 00:25:12
    close all of this applies to things that
  • 00:25:15
    you get from
  • 00:25:17
    supposed preachers prophets whatever you
  • 00:25:21
    know like that if especially if you're
  • 00:25:23
    in a more charismatic type church and I
  • 00:25:25
    know it always seems like I'm dumping on
  • 00:25:28
    charismatic churches but there is a lot
  • 00:25:31
    of stuff going on in those churches and
  • 00:25:34
    I was saved in a charismatic church so
  • 00:25:37
    you know that there's a lot of good
  • 00:25:39
    stuff but there's also a tendency for
  • 00:25:42
    things to get kind of goofy and there's
  • 00:25:46
    a lot of these prophets running around
  • 00:25:48
    and I use the word kind of an air
  • 00:25:50
    quotes that aren't really
  • 00:25:53
    prophets and they will Proclaim things
  • 00:25:57
    over you I mean if you go to a certain
  • 00:25:59
    kind of church you will go
  • 00:26:02
    forward uh or else they will they will
  • 00:26:04
    be walking up and down the aisle and
  • 00:26:06
    they'll point at an individual and say
  • 00:26:07
    this is what you know blah blah you know
  • 00:26:10
    the the word of the Lord is blah blah
  • 00:26:12
    for you
  • 00:26:13
    and maybe it is maybe it
  • 00:26:17
    isn't but you need to first of all don't
  • 00:26:21
    receive that into your spirit you know
  • 00:26:24
    if I were in a situ and I have been I
  • 00:26:26
    have been in you know congregation just
  • 00:26:29
    sitting there not as a speaker and had
  • 00:26:31
    some supposed prophetic type person you
  • 00:26:34
    know Proclaim something over me and
  • 00:26:36
    under my bread I want to say I bind all
  • 00:26:38
    false you know things and I loose the
  • 00:26:40
    spirit of Truth and I will say father if
  • 00:26:42
    this is from you I receive it but if
  • 00:26:46
    it's is not from you then I ask you to
  • 00:26:48
    just destroy its power over me right now
  • 00:26:51
    over my body Soul and Spirit and
  • 00:26:53
    yeshua's mighty name you get the idea so
  • 00:26:55
    be careful with this sort of thing don't
  • 00:26:58
    just assume if the individual is a
  • 00:27:00
    BigTime guy or woman with an expensive
  • 00:27:03
    suit on or whatever or lots of fancy
  • 00:27:07
    jewelry uh that they have a TV show or
  • 00:27:10
    they've written a lot of books or
  • 00:27:11
    something don't just assume that because
  • 00:27:13
    of that they're this infallible profit
  • 00:27:16
    because there ain't no such thing I
  • 00:27:18
    really don't know of anybody you know I
  • 00:27:21
    mean I you know I thought I know
  • 00:27:22
    everybody but there's you know the last
  • 00:27:25
    person I know of that that I think was a
  • 00:27:27
    real quote unquote Prophet was David
  • 00:27:30
    Wilkerson of course he's gone home to
  • 00:27:32
    heaven so I I don't think that because
  • 00:27:35
    to be a real Prophet you have to really
  • 00:27:37
    be an incredibly righteous you know
  • 00:27:41
    soldout individual who you know just
  • 00:27:45
    walks deeply with the Lord and I don't
  • 00:27:47
    think most of these people are like that
  • 00:27:50
    anyway just that's a word of caution
  • 00:27:52
    because many people will go to the
  • 00:27:54
    they'll go from you know one meeting to
  • 00:27:57
    another and have all the different
  • 00:27:58
    prophetic type people pray over them and
  • 00:28:02
    don't receive that stuff even if it
  • 00:28:04
    sounds very ear tickly because a lot of
  • 00:28:07
    times you will you will get quote
  • 00:28:09
    unquote prophecies that really play up
  • 00:28:12
    your
  • 00:28:13
    ego and be careful with that and do what
  • 00:28:17
    I suggest you know I mean when you sit
  • 00:28:20
    down you know or whatever you know the
  • 00:28:23
    the environment might be just pray
  • 00:28:26
    quietly father you know please take away
  • 00:28:29
    anything in this Proclamation that is
  • 00:28:31
    not of you uh I just ask you to destroy
  • 00:28:35
    the power of these words if they are not
  • 00:28:37
    from you and if they are from you I
  • 00:28:40
    receive them but you know what is best
  • 00:28:42
    for
  • 00:28:43
    me and I think it's critically
  • 00:28:46
    important measure the word you receive
  • 00:28:49
    from these individuals against your own
  • 00:28:53
    personal walk with Yeshua against your
  • 00:28:57
    understanding of the world
  • 00:28:58
    word don't just assume these people are
  • 00:29:01
    are so much better than you are because
  • 00:29:04
    maybe they are maybe they're not and
  • 00:29:07
    walk in humility but also be careful be
  • 00:29:11
    wise as a serpent and harmless as a dove
  • 00:29:14
    in all
  • 00:29:15
    things okay let me pray father in
  • 00:29:18
    yeshua's mighty name I just beseech you
  • 00:29:22

  • 00:29:24
    this message would be helpful to people
