Full Transcript

Folks, there's a glory, there's a glory and blessings that God is wanting to pour out on us. He's got that closet full of stuff he's wanting to put on us. We've been walking out like the absolute devil.

Repentance is when you have a change of heart and if you can get your hearts cleaned up a little bit. You know what the gospel does. When you go in and possess the land, the enemy don't have anything else in you.

You know what Jesus said in John. He said, the ruler of this world is coming and he has nothing in me. You know why? He said in the next verse he does the commandments of God.

So he can't get anything. He's holy. You hear me? We've not been walking in holiness.

We talk about to cover being holy, things like that, but we haven't been holy. We've been asleep. Our fathers have been transgressors of God's law.

Our fathers were deceived and we've had misleading oracles and traditions handed down to us. And I can show you just this plain from now for weeks writing the word of God. I'm going to build on up into Revelation the last day and it's not because I'm smart, obviously, and balanced content.

I don't have anywhere I will go to share the word. The people are sitting there. They don't have any trouble with the word.

Now I have a problem with them going and leaving there and then having a problem with their tradition. Controversial question now. There's a problem there because they leave her and they don't come back.

They don't want to hear it. They're just like a Pharisee. God doesn't have their heart in the first place.

Now I'll tell you what, folks. It's the most amazing thing that I got into an introduction here tonight. And I think we've come to a place where the Lord just wants you to begin confessing these sins.

And then when you confess them and you really mean it in your heart, you know what happens? You put it on the blood. And then when you put it on the blood, you're no longer a lawbreaker, but you're a lawbreaker until it gets on the blood. As long as you're practicing in the heart.

With a heart, you either believe in a righteousness or with a heart, you believe in unrighteousness. Your heart is believing on the nature of Satan or it's believing on the nature of God. You're not going to walk both ways, devil minded.

And then folks, God's wanting to bless us. And all these curses and things that came on us in Hebrews 12, it shows us if you're without, in Hebrews 12 verse 8, it says, if you are without discipline of which all, which means the son of God have become partakers. You are illegitimate children and you're not sons if you don't receive discipline.
