 Okay, I see a few people clapping, I heard a few shouts, but I know we can do better than that church. Come on, who's excited to be in the house of God today? Amazing to be able to see that video clip, amen, and see what God is doing in our nation, amen. There's revival that is happening, but I'm gonna tell you what, it's not just happening over in Kentucky. How many guys know that God is on the move everywhere around this world, around our nation? And he is moving here at Hungry Generation in Tri-Cities, Washington, and we're gonna praise him all together. So let's put our hands together just like this. Come on. When we lift up our praises to him, come on, the presence of God descends here. He inhabits the praises of his people. So when you say God, as simply as saying this, God, you are holy. The holy God descends in this place. He inhabits your praises, church. And so I want to do, what I want to do really quick is I want to invite you, if you would like to come to the front, to the altar. I want to extend an invitation. If you want to come to the altar and worship him, we're gonna worship all together. As we saw over in the Asperin revival that's happening right now as we speak, I want to extend that very same invitation. We don't have to wait to go somewhere to worship. We can worship him right here where we're standing, amen, church. So let's just lift up our hands. Let's just lift up our hands. Always singing up your praise. How great you are, God. Together it's your breath. Come on. We serve the God who is worthy of it all, amen. Come on, let's lift a shout of praise today. Because we serve the God who is worthy of it all. We serve the Alpha. We serve the Omega. We serve a good God, amen. We serve a God that's faithful to his promise. We came to a special moment. We came to a moment of prayer. And today I want us to come together as a family, as a church. And I want us to pray for every name that is written down and as these papers up your get brought up in the front. I would like to invite you guys to come out and begin to lay hands on these papers. And I want us to pray our best prayers. And I want us to believe that as we pray, as we step into intercessory. That we're going to see the chains begin to be broken off the life. That we're going to see veils begin to be removed out of the life. That everyone from rich in the glory of God will be broken today. That today we will see the life begin to be transformed. And as we lay hands, I want us to pray for specific breakthrough. From addictions, from a gang affiliation, from drugs, from alcohol, from pornography. That today God we're going to encounter them. Every mother, every father and every son, we're going to pray that God will encounter them. Father God, we come right now, God. And we pray, God, that the chains would fall, God. That whatever is hindering God, these hearts, God, that you would reach them, God. There is no depth, God, that you can't reach, God. There is no height, God, that you can't reach. We pray, God, that you would hear the cry of your children, God. That you would in cash in, would move and change it. Transformation in Jesus' name. Come on, come on, church. Those in the front, please don't leave yet. We're going to take this a step further. We're going to continue to believe that God is going to begin to use us. That God is going to begin to use his church to reach those who are lost. So as an act of faith, I want everybody in this place, from the front to the back, to place their hand on their heart. And I want you to pray to say, God, use me. It may be the song, God, that I may be the vessel that you will use to bring salvation to my mother, to my father, to my son, my daughter, my nephew, my nieces, grandsons, that you will use me, correct words, God, to bring salvation that you will encounter them, that chains will be broken in the mighty name of Jesus. Come on, with every single hand upon your heart. Father, we just ask you, would you give us a heart of flesh right now in Jesus' mighty name? Passion, the same compassion that Christ had for the lost Lord. Would you give us Jesus' mighty name, Lord, that you soften our hearts, God? Lord, we pray, break for what breaks yours, God. Lord, may we weep, Lord, for our family members, God. Lord, may we weep for those who don't know you, God. Lord, we pray in Jesus' mighty name, Lord, that you send us out, Lord, with boldness, Lord. Lord, we pray, Lord, that you send us out, Lord, with the power of your Holy Spirit. In Jesus' mighty name, we thank you, Lord, for what you are doing. Amen. Come on, church, if you believe the prayer, we just pray to get, God, your greatest praise in this place today. Come on, give it to God because he is worthy of it. Oh, come on. That being said, give your neighbor high five, let them know you're happy to see them, let them know you're happy to be here today. Also, please help me welcome Pastor Rickard to the stage. Hallelujah. How many are excited to be in the presence of God? People online, if you are excited to be in the presence of God, can you drop a fire emoji in the chat right now? We see you, we are with you in spirit, no matter where you're watching us from. Just the same presence of God that is here can be in your bedroom, in your car, in your office, wherever you are watching us from right now, in Jesus' mighty name. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. We have come to a time of offering right now. And before we do anything else, we want to extend a gratitude to our congregation. As you know, in the past few weeks, a terrible disaster happened in Turkey and Syria in the Karaman-Manras region. I think I got that right. We're about 43,000 people have lost their lives. It's the worst natural disaster in modern-day Turkey. And behind me you can see some of the effects of that earthquake. Hundreds and thousands of people have been displaced. And we, as a ministry, we sent out a reaching hand, however we could, so we sent finances there. And I want to thank every person that participated. Over $25,000 was raised for Turkey earthquake relief. So we got organizations that we are partnering with on ground in Turkey and Syria right now who are using those funds. So thank you very much for sowing whatever you could to save someone's life, to provide food and shelter for those who had nothing. You know, it's not about just preaching and saying, you know, hey, Jesus can save you, but they have no food. They have no shelter. We've got to do more as Christians. Hallelujah. So we honor you and thank you for doing that in Jesus' mighty name. We continue our building fund as well here at the church. As you see, we have progress every week now. And you have an opportunity to sow into that today as well as tithe and offerings. So as you can see, wow, professional footage and everything. That's a drone right there, guys. Come on. The beams have been raised and the internal renovation is soon to begin after the roof has been addressed. Hallelujah. So that's it right there. And you still have an opportunity to sow into that right here and right now. There are many ways for you to sow into the kingdom of God. You can text any amount to 84321. You can give through church center. You can give, the buckets will go through as well. And you can also give Venmo Cash App and others and online. You can scan the QR code there to get every way you can do that. Are you ready right now? Have you prepared in your heart what to give? God loves a cheerful giver. We come in prepared to give. We don't just allow, you know, hey, I'm not going to give unless God specifically tells me. That's good. Many times God will specifically tell you, but it's also good for us to give out of the goodness of our heart with joy and thanksgiving. Because as we do so, we are crediting it back to our heavenly accounts in Jesus' name. Okay? Let us raise our hands right now. Lord Jesus, we pray for this offering right now for what every person has purposed in their heart to sow into the kingdom of God, Lord. We pray that you will multiply everything that we lay our hands on, Lord. We pray that you will bless the works of the hands of the people of God, Lord. We pray for breakthroughs, job opportunities, business opportunities, breakthrough upon breakthrough, Lord, as we sow into good soil right here at Hungry Generation Church. We pray that it will be multiplied, Lord. The people's lives are formed because of our seed, Lord. In Jesus' mighty name, we have prayed. Hallelujah. So, bakirs are going to pass through right now. Give it a cheerful heart. God loves you. And let's watch the screen. Guys, I have an awesome update about the building. All of our beams have been raised. Come on. Let's give the Lord a clap offering. We are super excited. But this building is still not going to be ready until the Christmas probably of next year. And we have so many people coming to our church. So we have a solution. Come on in. I want to share something with you. In the last few months, we have seen an explosive growth at Hungry Gen. Many people coming from everywhere, receiving Jesus, getting healed and getting delivered. We are making more room for more people to meet Jesus. We're going to be adding a fourth service in the gym. There's going to be a worship team here. Our pastoral team is going to be here. And also, we're going to be streaming the sermon into this service. And sometimes, I'll actually be preaching from this service into our main auditorium. So we need your help to reach more people for Jesus. First, we're looking for 60 people to commit to come to this service. Secondly, is we are looking for 20 people to sign up to serve at this service. The third thing you can do to help us reach more people is to park right down the street at this church. We're looking for about 60 cars to park here every Sunday so we can make more room not only in our church, but also on our parking. And now the fourth thing that you can help us with with the launch of this fourth service is you can contribute. We are looking for people maybe who have some instruments or maybe a sound board or maybe you can just give financially. To launch this service that could be then fifth service will cost us about $20,000. So we want to ask you to also help us and contribute with this church. We have an exciting season ahead of us and all of us are going to play a role in this. So I can't wait for what God is going to do. Come on, give God a shout of praise for this. We prayed for this. We fasted for this. And now we're entering to this season. Are you going to be part of it? Come on, somebody. God is a good God. God is just showing that He's blessing this place that as you give, this is the right soil. Amen. Where our kids are going to grow, where we're going to see private school, where we're going to see leaders raise up, pastors, prophets. And it's because of people like you and I. Amen, church. Amen. Right now, we've come to a place where we're going to listen to some powerful testimonies. And Revelation 12, 11 says that they overcame the enemy by the blood of Jesus and the power of their testimony. Amen. So as you hear this testimony, let that be your weapon when you face your giants. Amen. When you face your giants, God, as you did it for Martin, for Eric, for Jessica, for Susie, you can do it for me right now and here. Amen, church. God is on our side. And He's in the business of changing lives, healing lives and restoring lives in Jesus' name. Amen. Let us welcome Eric on stage that he shared his wonderful testimony. Let's put our hands together for him. Eric, welcome. Thank you. Share with us your life before what happened, the chaos and how you got to meet Jesus and what Jesus did for you. I've been a Christian for 20 years, but for 40 years, my entire life, I have struggled with addiction to things like pornography and sexual things. And it is, even though as I was a Christian, it still plagued me. And four years ago, it came out that I was having an affair and I lost everything in one weekend because of it. Even though I was a Christian, it was still a struggle in my mind and my heart and everything. And I couldn't break free from it. And I lost everything that weekend. My marriage, my children, both my jobs, I became homeless, and that was the day that God said, it's time. And then he started me on a journey of rebuilding my life, but he started from the ground up. He had to break me down. And then about six months later, well, God had given me a small business. And about six months later, I started that business in my friend's garage while I was living in his basement. I still had lost so many things in my life, but God was slowly rebuilding those things, bringing back conversation after conversation, these kinds of things with people, all sorts of stuff. And he took me to the lowest point in my life standing in that garage. One day he came to me and held a divine mirror up in front of me and said, you are the man. You did this. And I had nothing left because he exposed everything in me. He brought it all to the surface and he said, you have no excuses. That's it. It's done. And that was my lowest day, the lowest day of my life. And he kind of let me wallow in that for a couple of hours. He let me understand really who I truly was, that Holy Spirit divine exposure. And then after that, he came back to me that same day and he said to me, you are a fighter. I've allowed these circumstances to be stacked up against you for a reason. You've lost everything. Everything has been taken from you. You have been turned against by just about everybody around you because of your sin, but I've allowed the circumstances because I called you to be from the moment you were born to be a fighter. You've been one your entire life. The problem is you have been at war with everybody around you since you were a little boy. So it's time for you to get into the right fight, stand up and get out there and start fighting for the hearts of the people around you now. Go. And when he said that to me, something inside of me changed permanently. And I stood up and I couldn't help but just move. I was so broken because of the shame and everything inside of me for so many years being lying and hiding. And I was just, I couldn't just stand up, but God stood me up and said, go. And that day he sent me out after my daughter, my adult daughter who wanted nothing to do with me. And he drove me to her work and I marched in that door and I said, I've got one thing to say to you. I love you. And what I didn't know was that morning she had reached her lowest point ever. And God told her, don't give up, don't quit. Don't give the throw in the towel. And he said to her or she said, she started crying out to him. I just want somebody to tell me they love me. And that was the day God broke my heart and sent me after my daughter. But that began the process in my life of rebuilding. And God knew that I had to stand up and fight. And the biggest battle ever started from within me. He started bringing it out of me. And he started taking me to the darkest places in my life. The deepest, darkest places, the scariest places. We all know those spots in our hearts and minds. And he started taking me there. And a couple years later he took me to some counseling in Montana. And in the middle of that week he showed me I have never truly rested in that salvation that I've been given. Hebrew chapter 3 and 4 talks about resting in Christ. Sitting on what he had finished and completed. And I realized I had never been there because I thought he was going to reject me just like everybody else had. And I knew the only way to heal was to give him access to my entire heart. And I couldn't do it. The first thing I did was hike it up a mountain that week. And when I got halfway to the top I told the Lord I'll sit and rest as soon as I get to the top. And he said no. Stop right here, sit and rest. And as soon as I did that two footsteps to the left I sat on the ground and I started bawling. 40 years worth of pain, 40 years worth of rejection. All the stuff from a little boy, all the trauma started coming to the surface. God said do not move until I tell you to. Stay here. And I fell asleep right there on the ground and I cried. And I slept and I woke up and God said you can move along. He told me to stay there until I tell you to move. And he said you can move. And after that I started making my way back down. I got to the bottom. I started driving away in my truck. And God said this, two people went up that mountain today but only one came down. That sad, scared, broken little boy was laid to rest up there. And he said to me, I did that. Enter into my rest. Your strivings have ceased. Come on, give God a shout of praise for that. It's so awesome. This shows us how we, when we surrender completely our pain, our issues, our heart breaks everything to God and give our problems into His hands. He'll put peace into our hearts. And Eric, can you tell us what happened afterwards and how God continued to restore your life? So even through all of those things I still struggled with those things. I still hid them and I couldn't break free from them. I had accountability software on everything, even the toaster. I mean, I went to meetings, all these things and I still couldn't get away from it until the race to deliver conference. The Sunday morning, the Sunday morning I went forward for prayer. I thought I was leaving because I had to get to a birthday party. God drove me to the front and I stood there praying. I don't know who it was. Hands up in the air, eyes closed. Someone started praying over me and they moved on. Then somebody else came and started praying over me also and they started praying this prayer and they just prayed and prayed and started getting more intense and more intense and all of a sudden they started saying things like come out of Him right now, come out of Him, get out of Him and I'm just bawling. Come, leave her, just go. Get out of this man. And then He said leave and never come back in Jesus' name and turn on a walked away. I didn't realize until about two or three days later that I had been delivered from 40 years worth of addiction to pornography and sexual addiction. Come on, give God a shout of praise in this place. Hallelujah. God is so awesome and what did God continue to do for you? God has continued to show me what it means to be a man. He showed me what it means to be a husband. I lost my marriage, but He showed me, He took me to a place in my own heart and He came to me once and He said, am I your beloved? And what He meant by that was am I the only thing you have? The only thing that I could give you is who I am. Will you take that? And He showed me how to be a husband because we are His bride. And He taught me how to do those things and He's walked me through this healing process with people, person after person but He showed me how to be a man. God will not take the burden from off your shoulders, men. He's only going to strengthen your back, widen your shoulders and you know, steady your footing. He's not going to relieve it. The pain won't go away. The addiction will not solve the pain. And you have to confess it and get it out in the open. That's right. Come on, you've got to shout out praise. Hallelujah. That's so awesome. You see what God has done in your life. And Eric, what are some order advice for people, for men, or maybe some people that have lost everything, like marriage with kids and everything. Maybe they find themselves in your position where they were for years in addiction. They can't get set free from what the word advice can you give them? I had a prophetic word spoken over me at a different church. And the man came and spoke exactly what God had been speaking to me. He said to me, do not give up. The second half of your life is coming. The second half of your life is coming. I've got a double blessing and a double portion, but do not give up. Give it all to me. And the other thing, and I have to say, just don't quit. Don't quit. It'll be hard to be difficult, but don't quit. And the other thing is it has to be spoken out loud. You have to confess it. It'll be the scariest thing you've ever done. But that's where the beginning, that's where it begins. Come on, thank you so much, Eric. Come on, let's put our hands together for Eric and what God Almighty has done in his life. This is to show you that the power of freedom, the power of deliverance is alive and present in this place. If you're going through certain things today, come up for prayer. Ask God to intercede in your life because he wants to be involved in every detail of your life. Amen, church. And with that, let's put our hands together for Pastor Leiden. Jeff, come on. Let's give the Lord a clap of offering. We clap a lot. We shout. We yell. Amen. We are a living church, not a dead church, as somebody said. Can we welcome everybody watching us on YouTube and on Facebook as well. If you're watching us on YouTube, let us know where you're watching from. Drop that emoji. Hit like, subscribe and comment as well as share this broadcast. If you're for the first time at Hungry Gen today, we welcome you. Before you leave, make sure that you still buy at our welcome table. We would love to give you a gift. As you are seeing already, we are having a space problem. We've always had a space problem at Hungry Gen ever since the Lord started to bring more people. So since you guys showed up, we started to have problems. We didn't have problems until you showed up. So you guys made the problem, which is, thank you. And we have a solution. The solution right behind me is that we're going to make more room. We're going to make more room. And so what this will allow us are us launching a fourth campus service. I'm sorry, fourth service by a gymnasium campus in March. So in about three weeks or so, this will allow us to do a few things. One is it will allow us to reach people. Somebody say reach more people. We're going to reach more people through that. The second thing is we're going to raise more volunteers or more servant leaders. Somebody say raise. Third one is we're going to release more pastors. If we can give us Graceland, stay with me. I'm going to flow through the notes right now. I'm not going to go through them. Flow through them. And then the third one is we're going to release. Somebody say release. We're going to release more pastors to begin to serve. And the last one is we're going to actually reduce the operation cost. And so because we don't have to pay for another facility, we can actually use our own facility. So the help that we will need from each and every one of you is in about few weeks, we're going to ask you to begin to consider parking at the other church and then getting a shuttle here. So that's going to be a little of inconvenience for us, but it's a small price to pay to help reach, release and 20 other ours. Amen. So we're really excited for that. The Lord is doing amazing things through our church and through each and every one of you. As Pastor Rickard mentioned, what our funds did in Turkey and Syria, what we're doing right now with our building fund and with what's happening around online ministry. And so without further ado, I want us to go straight into God's Word. If you have a Bible go with me to Matthew chapter 14 and this is the miracle that's been recorded in all the four gospels you probably have heard it in Sunday school and you probably have taught it yourself and so what we're going to look at this scripture right now how it applies to the vision of our house and how it applies to the role you can play in this vision. Matthew 14 and verse 13, and when Jesus heard it, he departed from there by the boat into a deserted place by himself and when the multitudes heard it they followed him on food from the cities and when Jesus went out he saw a great multitude. I want you to notice if you believe underlining the Bible is not sin. Jesus sees multitudes. He sees nations. He sees the world. God is not a little God. God is not a trying to just build a religion. He is the creator of heaven and the earth and he loves every human being and every human being has a value in his eyes. They are made in his image and likeness. And he loves everyone. Now my grandma has and she is right here. Grandma Maria everybody say hi to grandma Maria she's looking out where she's like she's like she has 16 children one husband and I have to make that my grandpa already passed passed on to glory and imagine my grandma 16 children going on a vacation they didn't do vacations though I'm just saying imagine because at the time when they grew up this was not possible and imagine my grandma going with 16 children on the vacation. On the way back from the vacation they realized halfway through it that 5 kids are missing lost them somewhere in the rest area. Imagine my grandma looking to my grandpa and saying not a big deal we still got 10 here good success rate actually if you look at the percentage level 5 out of 15 I mean still good number majority is still with us now it's funny but no parent will ever look at their family through percentages why? Because you don't do math on kids every one of them matters in fact if you would only lose one kid out of 15 what you would do you would create a chaos right? you will go back your schedule will be thrown out out of the window you will try to find that one kid why? because you don't I mean we even do that with wallets you lose a wallet and you go and turn the house over look for a wallet we do that with car keys and we do that with children I want you to notice that when God looks at the tri-cities through math oh 10% goes to church hallelujah we're winning Jesus no God looks at tri-cities and even if one person does not know him one person is hurting and suffering God will leave the 99 and go for the one so God loves you so much and you may say I don't want God I don't want to be with God please understand he doesn't have the luxury of looking at our city through percentages he loves every single human being because they are made in his image and likeness every human being that is far from God today that lives in sin please understand I know we have advancement in technology I know we have advancement in science I know we have advancement our phones are smarter our cars are faster everything is better but sin is still sin sin did not change to becoming less sinful the devil has not stopped being less devil demons have not stopped tormenting people sickness still hurts people depression still hurts people addiction still destroys people whether they are poor or rich homeless or millioners sin is still the same demons are still the same and God is still the only solution and his son Jesus Christ and therefore when God looks at our generation when he's looking at you right now when he's looking at you right now and hundreds and thousands of people he is moved with compassion because he's a father what you call in our community oh they're gay people they're trans people oh they're just don't love God people they don't want to do anything with God they're rebels they're they're deconstructed see we have the ability to label people when you're a parent you don't label kids you hurt for them you bleed for them you suffer and I want us today to not have a view of a Christian but have a view of the father toward our city and not to think like disciples did the Bible says Jesus had compassion on the multitudes Jesus why because that's exactly why the father and the mother would go back to whatever they left their child and look for one that's exactly what you would do when you lose a wallet that's exactly what you would do when you lose keys you go and you look for that stuff the shepherd leaves the 99 and goes for one the Bible says he saw the multitudes the scripture says he had compassion on the multitudes and the thirdly he said he healed the multitudes your therapist your doctor, medication they all have their limits only the Creator can fix what is broken only Jesus what you heard today he can deliver the captives you can have a program on your computer that tries to control your urges but only Jesus can help you be delivered from them you can go to a psychiatrist to help you deal with your feelings but only Jesus can help you to find forgiveness outside of all of that and maybe you are here today and the world can help you to manage your sin only Jesus delivers us from it I want to challenge you today to let you know that Jesus is not outdated because advancement in technology advancement in medicine and advancement in everything I mean the stuff that how amazing that the stuff we have in our world today with cars and technology and science is incredible none of it have come closer one degree to solve the sin problem none of them there is only one name that can do that and that is Jesus you can have a fast car you can have a smart phone and still be in need of Jesus Christ why because none of that can fix a problem of sin and I want you to notice this that Jesus heals the multitudes he has compassion on the multitudes there is one more thing he cannot do without his disciples and that is he can't feed the multitudes without them and so disciples come to Jesus with this brilliant idea if we go to verse 15 we are going to do a little Bible reading today verse 15 says when it was evening that means it is coming it is getting late when it was evening his disciples came to him saying it is a deserted place and the hour is already late send the multitudes away that they may go into the villages and buy themselves food great idea Jesus we tired Jesus it has been enough and this is pasco our sanctuary fits to 100 people we can't do anything more send the multitudes away let's wait for the new building so I want to speak just briefly into our church right now we have to be very careful that we don't make our canoic building into an idol by postponing revival until we move into canoic we have to be very careful that we don't allow people new people to come to know Jesus because we are waiting for the new canoic building to be finished now until next year Christmas in this year and a half or two years we can see thousands of new people being healed and delivered Jesus is not in heaven and saying I am going to hold on with healing I am going to hold on with deliverance and I am going to hold on until you guys finish building and many times we have this attitude I will be honest with you I relate with disciples because I would be like saying Jesus we really can't do anything right now we are tired with three services doing one more it is just exhausting Jesus also there is no other place we can rent because we checked out Pasco High District and they are not available for us to use their facility we went to canoic high school district but it is going to be a nightmare with children's church and all of this stuff Jesus we just need to could you keep the people away from our church for the next two years until we get into a new building but see Jesus doesn't think like that we have to understand that is how we think because we love mediocrity we love convenience a guy was fishing one time and every time that he caught a big fish he put it back into the lake a guy next to him was fishing noticed that so he had a question why do you do that so he came up to him and he said listen I have noticed you fishing but you are throwing all the big fish into the lake he says oh it is a very simple problem at home I have a small frying pan so he is like if the fish doesn't fit the frying pan I have to put it back into the lake and the guy is like well have you ever thought about buying a bigger frying pan he is like no it is way too expensive and that is how many of us are we simply postpone what God wants to do to another season why because we have a small frying pan now in the beginning we are saying no Vlad we don't have a small frying pan we have a small facility but see the problem is not a lot of times we have a small facility the problem is with our mindset and the problem is with our convenience if you take your notes write a few things down one of them is there is no compassion in convenience compassion will take you out of convenience and convenience will take you out of your calling anybody who has ever done parenting you know one thing convenience cannot be your number one goal you can't raise children in convenience children will create inconvenience because you cannot have compassion if you are addicted to convenience so what happens is when we want to fulfill the calling of God in our life as a church or as Christians we must understand there is going to be a cost and a lot of times the cost is not you dying on the cross and many of us are like man I will die for Jesus can you endure inconvenience for Jesus because Jesus isn't asking you to be nailed to the cross today he is just asking you to endure a little bit of inconvenience and for disciples that inconvenience was simply we are going to miss our bed time and that means we are going to stick around with people for about five more hours and we really want to go home I really want to hit my pillow I really want to have my mom cook my food I really don't want to stay with these people for another four hours it's a little bit of inconvenience that I have to endure and Jesus's compassion causes him not to be addicted to convenience convenience is not bad but please understand don't let convenience rob you from your calling and not fulfill your calling and live in convenience you cannot have compassion and be addicted to convenience you cannot be mature and be addicted to convenience because the first thing the love of God will do in your life is to break you out of your convenience I don't want to park at the 70 Advent Church convenience issue we don't want to have another service in the gym I don't want to sit in the service and watch the guy on the screen convenience problem it's interesting I just got a testimony right here of a person who watched the video last week about homosexuality he was a Christian, married to a gay man going to church, watched the video and God convicted him so much he left this comment and reached out to me personally and got divorced with his homosexual husband the next day a video if our ministry touches the world through video God can use even the video to touch people's lives but see for a lot of us it's not that God can't move it's that there is a there is a small frying pan called a limited mentality but this limited mentality is pushing hearts of Jesus into Jesus you have to conform to my convenience Jesus please reduce your big vision to the level of my comfort Jesus come on you got to consider my feelings what would happen if Jesus would have chose convenience instead of the cross what would happen if instead of becoming an embryo growing in the womb of a Mary being delivered and growing learning to walk the God who made feet learns to walk the God who made the globe learns to sleep what would happen if Jesus would say it's not convenient the cross that's not convenient I am so glad he didn't choose convenience he chose my salvation and therefore today if I have to embrace little bit of discomfort to express his compassion to a dying world which means if I need to come in a little bit early if I need to go a little bit later if I need to give all my resources I would do it with pleasure why because compassion cannot live in a heart addicted to convenience I cannot fulfill my calling if I am addicted to convenience I have to be in love with Jesus Christ and his heart has to impress mine stretch my heart and even if I don't care about souls I spend my life at the feet of Jesus and Jesus pours out the love of the Father into my heart by the Spirit and I begin to think of souls and I begin to think of the price I can pay so that I can have the compassion of Jesus stretch my heart and so I can see revival through my life today I'm preaching to myself can somebody say amen not to the part that I'm preaching to myself but to the part about convenience convenience says there are many obstacles compassion says this is an opportunity this is an opportunity there is a loss there is a cost of overcoming challenges that we have on our way but church there is also a greater cost of a lost opportunity of seeing miracles young people being raised and us in a year and a half seeing hundreds of people going from darkness to light going from sickness to healing going from being demonized to being delivered pastors who left ministry people who deconstructed from Christianity finding their faith again because we refuse to be addicted to convenience the big idea at the root of all of this exists this what the church is the church is about you or is the church through you to the world because if the church is about me then it's about my convenience but if the church is about his vision then I have to be willing if necessary lay my convenience at the altar and pick up his compassion for the world we are going into a fourth service because right now we have no choice and we feel obligated to Jesus to live out his mission as a church in these last days to reach more people for him the other part I have a feeling I could be 100% wrong so I'm just going to say what if the fourth service will also be the fifth service in the gym what if before we move into a new building we will have another campus in Richland next year what if when we move into a Kenwick building there will be a Pasco campus Richland campus and Kenwick what if something new is happening see the devil showed up at the Grammys and God showed up at the university woke garbage showed up at our movie theaters so that Jesus revolution and come out in Jesus name next month it's almost like God is saying God is flexing his muscles and saying I'm going to raise faceless nameless I'm going to raise young people I'm going to fill them with power and in this hour in this day and age they will make a difference there's a lot of churches that have multi-campuses around the United States and there is a hunger for the move of the Holy Spirit for deliverance for the miracles with Bible teaching with discipleship that's around the world we're meeting these people everywhere today what if all this is a setup for launching a Bible college online for people to be discipled and open their homes like in the Bible for revival where these services that we have here will not only be streamed to a gymnasium somewhere in Richland but to somebody's home in California somebody's home in Toronto somebody's home in Texas and then these homes could become hubs and then they could become campuses we were given prophetic words when we only had 20 of us here that churches will be started like popcorn we laughed at that and we looked at that word like Sarah did when Angel of God or the Lord says you will be pregnant that was funny and God made her seed laughter Isaac means laughter but not in the mocking laughter but in the laughter where this was impossible but it became possible what if God is setting us up and preparing and maybe we would think of these ideas ourselves but sometimes when God presents a problem he allows the problem to comes in there is no other solution except something that is innovative something that is different and God says I can do a miracle with that you thought this was an obstacle but actually it's an opportunity you thought this was a limitation but actually it's an invitation for me to do something that I always wanted to do I wanted you to get to your bottom so that I can get all the glory use your five lows and two fish to multiply my power, my effectiveness my glory and to touch the world and so what begins to happen then is disciples say of course we don't want to do it Jesus says verse 16 they do not need to go away you give them something to eat and at one of those mornings this is the verse that through the bottom off of my feet it wrecked me where I felt the Lord say I'm not concerned with your building I'm concerned with people I will give the funds for the building but that building is a tool that building is not the goal they do not need to go away meaning we can't tell people honestly forgive me for the language I'm going to say you guys can go to hell or come back until we get a new building God doesn't want us to think like that they do not need to go away you find the solution you find an answer so God throws the challenge to us because a limitation is time for innovation it's time for it's an invitation, God is saying we can work together I can figure out a solution so what can we do so there are three things I want to leave you with number one, as I already have mentioned this alluded to this earlier is that our limitation is a miracle and God can do this miracle if we submit this instead of make excuses and maybe you are here today and you have limitation you have lack of this, lack of that not enough of this, not enough of this not connected, not having enough resources I don't have enough money I wasn't born in the right tracks whatever the excuse is and that's what the excuse I said our sanctuary is too small nobody is renting when we were in Columbia calling Pasco district calling different churches seven day Adventist churches as well looking at everything and then I remember me and Ilya looked at each other and we said wait, we have a gym it fits 200 people why don't we use it I mean it's not ideal nor did five loaves and two fish was ideal but it was enough for Jesus to do something and when we started to pray and say what if this limitation is actually the Lord inviting us and say think outside of the box what if your personal limitation right now what would happen if instead of you come up with an excuse why nothing can happen in your life you actually find some faith and you say I can't do it this is not enough to meet the need, this is not enough but it's actually just enough in the hands of my master what could he do with it I know what I could do absolutely nothing eat and I'll be hungry again in two hours and if you're a teenager in 30 minutes but what could Jesus do with it I will never know until I try and the Bible says this we have here only five loaves and two fish only meaning it's not enough again, it's not enough for us it's not enough in the hands of Jesus that's one of the reasons why in two weeks from now the first Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday we will go into a three day fast as a church why? because every territory we go physically we first go spiritually this is God's work Jesus wants to advance his kingdom it's not about us nor is this about these buildings if God could use a university at Asbury he can use our gymnasium he can use this auditorium he can use us, can somebody say amen the second thing I want you to notice is verse 18 very short verse Jesus says bring them here to me so the first thing I mention is that our limitation is an invitation for God to do a miracle the second thing that I want to mention and that is stress does not produce supernatural surrender does stressing over the fact that you have very little complaining over the fact that God didn't give you enough comparing your little with somebody else's feeling inadequate doesn't produce miracles tears don't produce miracles but you know what produces miracles not complaining but surrendering what you do have 100% it's not enough but God isn't looking for a lot supernatural is God adding supernatural is God adding his super to your natural and God never compares your natural with your neighbor's natural he says yours is enough if you surrender it to me the little that you have is enough if you give it to me the little time that you have the little talents that you have the little gifts that you have if you give it to me then I will do the rest now one thing that I want to highlight here is this Jesus did not tell the boy because in John chapter 6 he says it was the lad who had the five loaves and two fish it wasn't the disciples Jesus did not tell the boy to go and feed the multitudes with five loaves and two fish Jesus told the boy to give those loaves and fish to him and he's the one that did the miracle something I want to highlight to people that are serving at the local church people that are giving the local church and people that are giving of their gifts and talents it's important that you realize you are not serving people when you're serving people you're pleasing God let me say that again when you're serving people you're pleasing God if you miss the God component in serving people you will always be disappointed you bring it to God first when we gave our funds to the building it wasn't to the building come on we know the better we brought it to God when we show up here and we serve on the parking lot when we serve in the kids ministry when the worship team serves very early we're not doing it for people we're first and foremost doing it for God so when people will not like it when people will not receive it it doesn't throw us off we will continue to do it why because it's God we're seeking to please now if you're doing it only so that you can impress people please people service people and they will take a bite out of your loaf and say this is not cooked really well you will get discouraged you say look at these people they don't like what I have look at the church I got church hurt that's it I'm deconstructing I'm walking away from Christian faith they just did not accept me the church did not provide a place for my gifts to shine the church did not treat me well and the hurt begins to build up why because you miss the component that it goes to Jesus first Jesus does something with it gives you back in a broken form and then you give it to the people I've been in ministry in the full-time ministry for 20 years and I can tell you one thing and you guys can testify everybody who's been in the church for a long time the church is full of imperfect people church is a place where it attracts immature people and one of them is you one of them is me who are in process of sanctification church is full of people just like your family crazy one that's always the church just a larger one imagine your crazy family multiplied by 100 that's what church is bunch of crazy people now they look all nice on Instagram and they look all nice on Sunday morning that's why some of you are afraid to go to a small group so they don't find that you're crazy and some of you you're afraid to go to a small group so that you don't find out who else is crazy because if you're crazy they're crazy we're gonna have a really a lot of crazy but see what keeps you grounded in the church is if you fix your eyes and giving your five loaves and to fish not to Peter, not to John not to Bethanel you not to other disciples and not to the crowd but you bring it to Jesus and say Jesus it's you I'm giving this to Lord I'm preaching to please you Lord I'm guiding cars in a parking lot to please you Lord I emptied my bank account to please you for the building fund Lord I suffer for you Lord I'm doing this for you use me for the people Lord but it's you that I'm trying to please when Jesus was dying on the cross may I remind you in the garden of Gethsemane he didn't say father I can't wait to get beaten father could we make this go faster I can't wait to get whipped no he didn't say that you know why because he didn't want to die you know why he did to please the father I don't believe that he did just because he absolutely loved to be beaten he did it because he really wanted to honor and to fulfill his father's request so I want to challenge you sometimes ministry will get you to a garden of Gethsemane where you honestly don't want to do it where your motivation fizzles out and the reason why it fizzles out is because the motive the fuse motivation is wrong what is the motive to be seen to to explore my gifts to touch the world all of that is great until you reach garden of Gethsemane all of that is great until the very people you're trying to please don't seem to appreciate acknowledge and honor and devil fills your mind with thoughts drop it it's not worth it you know you're not even doing anything worth a while nobody appreciates it nobody's rewarding it but see if you keep going back on your knee and you're saying what Jesus did father it's not my will but Lord is that what you want me to do if the answer is yes I will gladly take the cross I will gladly deny myself and I will walk after you Jesus serving the world for you Lord amen so this vision that Jesus has we have to look at what we have is enough for Jesus to use secondly we bring it first to the Lord you bring your gifts to the Lord some of you brought your gifts to the church but you didn't bring him to God you came to church and you want Vlad to notice you and he did notice you just there's nothing I can do you have to bring it to God but I want I want him to notice it no you don't because it is God who will take the little that you have and he will break it and he will sanctify it and he will return you back that thing and then now it will begin to do miracles it will begin to change people's lives amen and the last thing I want you to notice is that Jesus takes the bread he multiplies it gives back to disciples and I want you to see this in verse 19 he commended the multitude to sit down on the grass he took the five loaves into fish looking up to heaven he blessed and broke the loaves and gave it to the disciples and disciples gave it to the multitudes and they all ate and were filled and they took twelve baskets full of fragments that remained and now those who have eaten were five thousand men besides women and children and the last thing that I want to share with you and that is this is that God will increase what we have he will multiply what is given away not what is stored away when Jesus blessed the five loaves and two fish they still didn't multiply he only broke them they only multiplied when the disciples gave those loaves away you can be gifted and anointed and you can be called by God and that calling will not increase until you serve give exercise for example all of us have muscles some of us they are buried under deep layer of tons of other substance that even fasting couldn't break through you don't come to God and say Lord give me muscles you typically go to the gym and you exercise the muscles that you have and they increase when you receive the Holy Spirit a lot of you already have received gifts you don't even know you have they are just buried under the layer of excuses and laziness they are buried under the layer I don't have what it takes my body is not made like this just my body my body and you keep blaming your body but in reality if you only see cheetos and you don't see the gym don't blame your body it's your choices exactly the same thing with ministry and spiritual gifts people say exactly the same thing just God didn't give me enough gifts God didn't call me to be that but in reality all of that is a bunch of excuses if you are filled with the Holy Spirit if you are speaking in other tongues if you have been baptized in the Holy Spirit you already have so much more in you than you realize but it's like a muscle you don't just come and say Lord give me more because it's okay pray for you you got another prophecy it's like same thing as you saying okay I'm gonna subscribe to a fitness instructors and every night I will watch fitness videos therefore I'm going to have bigger muscles by watching fitness videos so you watch the first day you watch 20 fitness videos after that you just feel worst by yourself the second day you're depressed the third day I am not wired to be fit because you don't become fit by watching videos you become fit by exercising you don't become powerful when God breaks the five laws and says look at you have it yeah I gave you five you gave me ten but because you broke it Jesus I need a miracle not for you to break it yes but multiplication does not happen when I break it it happens when you give it I blessed it you can multiply it by releasing it but if you bury that talent in the ground it will remain one if you store that in your savings account you will only get an interest rate of your bank's account but if you begin to give away you will begin to see the increase and multiplication people sometimes ask well how do I grow in my spiritual gifts my friend you have to start with little if the little that you have hey I can help with children do you know how much help we need a children's ministry for those of you who may be like oh but I'm too anointed for children's ministry problem but pastor you don't understand I have a gift a powerful gift that means you can guide cars in the traffic no no no I need something bigger than that well you can do that in the lobby then guide people in the lobby no I need something with the podium see then you're not looking for a dark place to shine in you are looking for a place that has light so you can shine in light does not need well lit stage light lights up the dark places you are a light your gift is an answer to somebody you need to find a need and fill it water the Bible says the those who believe out of their innermost will flow rivers of water that means that God is looking for you to have an outlet not just to have an inflow many Christians have become bottles they received from God Jesus broke it multiply blessed it and give it and they're not seeing any results because the water has to come out but I want you to notice it's the water that's coming out not rocks have you noticed rocks are stubborn a rock comes into the room and says if you don't open the room the door my size I'm not getting out that's how so many people are they come in they're like I can only do this in the church and that's it I only have this gift I have this education and I have this gift I cannot do anything else really like you can't like sweep you can't like clean no see the Bible says the world will flow out of you is water water is flexible it's fluid you don't have to open the door for water a crack will do that means that we have to be flexible to serve where the need is I started on the worship team thankfully they kicked me out but I would not know that leading worship wasn't part of my gift until I would get into that room I've tried other things people sometimes say how do you get better at preaching by preaching more studying more and preaching more when I was in my younger days as a youth pastor most people don't realize I preached at least about three times a week he was like yeah but I want to preach three times a week nobody's giving that to me jail does homeless shelter does parks don't have signs says don't preach YouTube does and a lot of us what we do is again we're like rocks stiff if you don't open the door nobody loves the gift nobody allows that no no no just give what you have where you can give and it will begin to grow and it will begin to multiply and then God will begin to open opportunities and God will begin to bless you and give you his grace and so instead of coming to church and saying is there a room for my gift you simply say is there a need I can serve in I want to grow the church not just grow my gift I'm not here to use the church to build my name I'm here to use my name my gifts my resources to build the church Jesus died for come on somebody the gifts will grow the gifts will multiply the anointing will increase if you will begin to give of yourself up a few years ago we went to Israel with our team and we went to a Dead Sea and Dead Sea it's beautiful if you've never been to Dead Sea I would encourage you at least one time in your life to go into it or put a lot of salt in your bathtub and pretty much it could be a Dead Sea a Dead Sea is 30 miles long 9 miles wide its shoreline is 1300 feet below sea level 7 million tons of water evaporates every day salt content is 10 times saltier than the oceans of the world now Dead Sea is so salty that only bacteria can survive there it's the lowest point on earth you can float but nothing can grow there plants can't live there fish die why? it looks beautiful on the outside it looks good you can have so much fun in it but there is no fruitfulness in it now river Jordan flows into the Dead Sea but nothing flows out of it there is another sea in Israel it's called the Sea of Galilee we hear miracles about it the Sea of Galilee is different the Sea of Galilee is smaller but it has life it's 13 miles long 7 miles wide it's the largest freshwater lake 20 types of fish live there see Jordan it flows into the Sea of Galilee and it flows out Jordan flows into the Dead Sea and it doesn't flow out one has so much salt everything dies and see some of us are the salt of the world we're too salty we're so salty only bacteria lives in us and one characteristics we're not volunteering we're not serving we're not giving 20% of the church does 80% of serving only 20% of the church is responsible for 80% of all the giving so that tells us church I want to invite you today not just to be someone that others can float in but be something that grows life begin to serve I want to invite you to begin to serve don't preoccupy yourself what gift you have where there is a need we have too many people trying to discover their gift and too little people trying to deny their selfishness and build the kingdom of God your gift will become evident with time when I was started at 13 I wasn't looking for my gift I was just looking for an opportunity where I can help it started with folding chairs and setting up our sound system but that's where the need was it was later on that the gift started to become more apparent don't start right away with what my gift is where is the need now some of you may be starting with the place but I don't have a passion for it well you're old enough to do something that you don't like and put a smile on it you're not a baby so sometimes there are things you will do not because you like it but because there is a need every parent knows that the husband knows that every wife knows that we look for the need not for the passion and then you will find the passion and hopefully later on you'll do something that you're super passionate about as this new service is starting in few weeks I want you to prayerfully consider those of you who come at 10am service and you love hungry Jen you're just not connected really anywhere and of course I know you got 20 million reasons I forgot about them or maybe you feel like you don't have anything to offer I want you this year do you want to make some progress stop making excuses put those excuses aside and humble yourself and say you know what I'm going to serve once a month you know what I'm going to go to a small group and yes there's a danger I'll warn people in a small group crazy might show up so be patient but you will grow the world will become a better place because of you there are some of you here today and you always talk to yourself out of giving because well you just don't understand I have so much debt and have so much stuff and so much really excuses what if you would give God the little that you have watch him multiply watch him multiply you know last year before our capacity Sunday few months before the pastor Ilya Paul we're meeting and Paul presented how much the building would cost gave me almost like a little heart attack and then we looked at how much money we raised last year for 11 months for the building which was 137 thousand dollars but we needed 3.5 I felt I felt sick to my stomach because I knew that we have a problem so I went back home and I really felt that hopeless what can we do 3.5 million and we barely we're not even scratching the surface and we don't want to go into this hyper mode fundraising I don't like that we're a local church and I said God people have given all they could there's nothing we can do God you have a problem and after I finished complaining I felt a still small voice this one question what do you have what does this have to do with me you have a problem God and we don't talk about me whatever I have is not enough okay just FYI it's not enough he says yeah it's not enough to pay for the building but it's enough for you to obey me and I can do something and I said God it doesn't make sense in my head if I give what I have it still won't solve the problem God says you're giving it to me not to the building and I remember when I presented to my wife and you know my wife first was also very hesitant as I was and then I let it kind of marinate because you know the Holy Ghost kind of knows how to talk to people and stuff and then few months later I remember my wife looked at me and she says you know what I think we have to take our five lows compared with our need at the church it's not enough she says but we have to do our part and we have to trust for a miracle that we will see as we give our best we believe for a miracle this is gonna be a miracle, it's not a short we'll do interestingly that Sunday, first Sunday of December as we took that step and gave what we had now it didn't seem fair because this was our lunch this was our savings we prepared for it for ourselves we didn't plan for somebody else to eat it us a little lunch, leaving our hands it did feel death and a funeral you know three services later somebody else gives exactly same amount two weeks later somebody else gives the same amount and in two and a half months we raised $800,000 for the building in two months God started to move upon people right here I'm holding a letter from a businessman who donated an LED screen outside people who started to come even from outside of town and including tri-cities who don't even go to a church and said I will help with painting my company will take care of painting you buy the paint what I started to notice is this it started a domino effect I'm not saying I did anything because it was simply an obedience with what you have to God see God is responsible for your miracle God is responsible for your obedience God is responsible to do a miracle in your finances but you're responsible to do a miracle of obedience when you say God I trust you with the little Lord I give you the little I'm not gonna stress out I'm not gonna be walking in depression I'm not gonna live this year in anxiety I will give you what I have and I will trust you for what I need I will give you what I have and I will trust you for what I need this is a word for somebody I will give you what I have and I will trust you for what I need I will give you my children I will give you my broken marriage I will give you my broken past Lord I will trust you for the future God is gonna do it for hungry Jen and God is gonna do it for you in Jesus' name God is gonna do it for you for those of you watching us on live stream because this is the year of miracles this is the year where we take limits this is the year where God will open the flood gates of heaven this is the year that we're gonna see prodigals come back home this is the year we'll see marriages being restored and addictions being broken sicknesses being healed in Jesus' mighty name bearing wounds will be open blind eyes will be open deaf ears will be open where God will take limits off of our church where God will take us to a level we only dreamed of it's the kind of miracle somebody shout amen I want you to place your hand upon your heart and say Lord help me to be obedient whatever that is help me to be obedient miracles is your specialty obedience is mine come on just tell it to God maybe you're believing for healing maybe you're believing for deliverance maybe you're believing for a breakthrough maybe you're believing for a husband or a wife maybe you're believing for this harvest there's no way this can happen leave the miracles to God promise him to be obedient just tell Jesus say Jesus I will be obedient miracles is your job obedience is mine I will serve what you want me to serve I will love I will forgive I will give I will be molded to your image Jesus promise him your obedience right now promise him to obey promise him to do what he asked you to do he will turn water into wine he will turn your debilitating disease into a healing report he will take those cancer cells and turn it into a healing report only God will do what God can do but God says can you give me the loaves I will feed the masses but could you provide the loaves could you give me the little bit of faith that you have could you give me this problem right now into my hands you will do a miracle but I ask you for your participation I ask you for your faith every head bowed and every eye closed if you're in this room today and you don't know Jesus Christ as your lord and savior maybe you are a child of a Christian parents maybe your grandpa was a pastor or your dad was a pastor but you yourself don't know Jesus as your lord and savior you know about Jesus but you don't know him personally maybe you've done stuff that you yourself and you don't need to forgive yourself you need to first have forgiveness from God and maybe you feel so guilty and you feel so unworthy of Jesus' love for you and you're coming to church today it's just reminded you of everything that you have done wrong and everything that you should have done today Jesus is wanting it to invite you to be forgiven of your sins and washed by his blood maybe you deconstructed and you went woke and you completely turned your back on Jesus and embraced the cultural version of Christianity and today you need to come back to Jesus because the culture didn't die on the cross for you Jesus did whether you're in one of these two categories that you need to give your life to Jesus for the first time or come back to the Lord when I count to three I'm gonna ask you to raise your hand everybody put your head down and close your eyes nobody looking at me one, two, three just raise that hand high if you say this is me thank you I see hands going all over the room Jesus is inviting you right now I'm gonna ask you to do something church I want you to rise those of you who raised your hands I'm gonna ask you to do something bold and if you wanted to raise your hand because you know you're not right with the Lord revival begins with committing your life to Jesus I'm gonna ask you to come out of your seat quickly and come right
