 Hello David Digger Hernandez here and you are watching an encounter TV interview I'm very excited because my guest today says he wants to make you uncomfortable and that's good for you I promise you're gonna want to watch this my friend evangelist Don Coleman. How are you doing today all the way from Washington, DC? Yes, sir It's been a while since we've chatted But I am glad because I've been wanting to get you on this broadcast because there's an anointing on your life And today we're talking about the fire of God. You said that's the message you put in your heart So I don't want to take too much of your time But I do want a little bit of an intro for our viewers tell us about your ministry what you're doing how life is going for you Awesome. Awesome. Well, um, my ministry is fire revival global ministries. We started back in 2011 I actually started preaching when I was 13 years old. I'm now 23 years old 24 in July But I started preaching when I was 13 years old. I got saved at six years old Was filled with the Holy Spirit at 13 as well and from then from 13 years old I mean, I've been preaching first started preaching to my teddy bears, you know baptizing them At home But I got out the Holy Spirit just began to lead me Gave me a platform to preach on and just begin to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with the passion with the fire with the Fuego de Dios God And it's beginning to travel do miracle through shades anointing services revivals wherever the Holy Spirit led me However, he led me I went with what he said to do and I did it so say hundreds thousands of souls saved Demons cast it out delivered and what not not not going with the tradition of man Even at a young age because I remember growing up in the church that I did with the Domination cap that I was on it. They told me in order for me to preach it had to be 18 years old But I said no, that's not what God told me. That's not what the Holy Spirit had birthed into me So I begin to I begin to go out of begin to preach even on the streets before I was able to get a platform a stage of Mike That didn't stop me. I begin to preach over the internet you stream. I begin to preach over In the streets going out winning souls and what not and just begin to be led by the Holy Spirit And of course now like I said, I'm leading fire revival global ministries where we're taking the fire We're taking the the fire the anointing of the Holy Spirit wherever we go there is the fire of God on your preaching and you hear people kind of thought accolades these days very Casually, but when I say the fire of God on your preaching, I mean the fire of God is on your preaching not just the passion Not just the excitement. Yeah, but the anointing is there Yes, I've watched your things on Facebook and I've seen your live broadcast and you think in your heart I looked through your messaging that the church needs to be revived Yes, talk to me about that. Yes, the church needs to be revived I believe right now where we're at in the 21st century of the church is not where necessarily where God wants us to be I believe that right now where we're in a place where we're all right. We're comfortable Sitting down in our seats doing services. We're comfortable seeing the normal thing. We're comfortable, you know hearing okay Seeing here, but this is what's happening first. This is what's happening second We're comfortable with the schedule, but I believe that God is ready to wreck our services I believe he's ready to wreck our our Sunday morning or Saturday whenever morning worship services I believe that he's ready to Cause the dead to be brought into our services again and watch them raise to life I believe that he's we're ready to see it. I don't you see I believe that we're really God's really trying to have us To come to the understanding that the supernatural should not be abnormal anymore That the supernatural should be normal in the church We ought to see these things it shouldn't surprise us what it should do what it should have us do is to say Oh, we thank God we we thank you, but we're not surprised by the miraculous acts of the Holy Spirit We're not surprised by the fire coming down. We're not surprised by the creative miracles because it's normal to us This is where God wants the church to be he wants us to be in a place where it's normal But first we must become uncomfortable first. We must say enough is enough. I'm tired of the normal I'm tired of the tradition and am I saying tradition. I'm not saying tradition is completely wrong But I'm saying that we have to get to a place where we're saying tradition is no longer enough You see because the Old Testament was tradition the New Testament brought a newness and right now the church We're still living in the Old Testament. We're still living in a place where the Holy Spirit the presence of God is here But but he's not tangible But where the New Testament brings us where the presence of God is here and he's tangible right now We're still living in the Old Testament where we talk about these things. We talk about miracles. We talk about Jesus healing the sick We talk about Jesus raising that it did but whatever happened to the greater works Hmm, you see it's good for us the church to talk about it But now God is saying I want to not only have you talk about it. I want you to be able to live in it I want this to become a lifestyle. I want you to be a part of the culture The the culture of the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit and with the fire of God So you say God wants us to become uncomfortable first. Yes. What does that look like? Yes What does that look like what God having us to become uncomfortable? looks like us Putting ourselves Surrendering ourselves and putting ourselves on the altar putting our lives on the altar. You see a lot of times You know we during during services on Sunday morning We we were just so happy to run down to the altar and to give our life to Jesus Christ And or we're so glad to happy to run down to the altar and and ask Jesus for or acts Sorry the pastor for prayer or whatnot, and then we leave back the same Just like that in the instant in the moments of minutes where our life could have never been the same We go back and it is the same the reason being is because so many people run to the altar not to kill themselves Not to kill their their flesh All right, but they run to the altar to grab something from the preacher to grab something from the anointing Running away and leaving the same, but God is calling us to be uncomfortable That looks like us going to the altar whether it's in your home I'm not talking about a physical alter But but but coming to an understanding that I need to go to the altar and I need to kill the deeds of our flesh Of your flesh I need to go to this to this altar and I need God to send down his fire on me because Hebrew Hebrews chapter 12 talks about how once more yet once more signify God removing those things that are not supposed to be there removing those things from the earth Shaking your life and then replacing those things with those that are which those things that are supernatural into us So I believe that that looks like that is a perfect picture of us coming to the altar Acting God to kill those things kill those religious things kill those traditional things that are on us that that tells us that Hey, you know, we can continue to fornicate we can continue to to smoke weed We can continue to sin and yet still be in the church down No, no, no the Bible talks about in the revelation where Jesus said that you know He's spew he's spitting us up because we're not even in his system. We have become lukewarm Jesus is calling for us to kill the deeds of our flesh. He's calling us to live in a life of holiness He's calling us to live a life according to the word of God. That's what that looks like Just the other day. I saw you post something about integrity. Yes I think this goes right in line with what you're talking about because the fire of God. It's cleansing and it does produce integrity Amen. Talk to me about People and their integrity when it comes to being on fire for the Lord Yes So, you know a lot of a lot of believers out of preachers especially young preachers my agent as well as older preachers And a lot of Christians period, you know, they want to receive the fire But they don't they don't want to live a life of integrity. They don't have they don't have the character To perform or not to perform but to minister to be a preacher young preacher to be a pastor being an evangelist apostle Whatever that is. They don't have the the character or the integrity meaning that They they'll they'll love to accept the engagements They'll love to preach around the world But yet behind those closed doors in that ministry behind behind the closed doors with where you know You don't have your your partners and you don't have your your your ministry workers with you What are you doing behind those closed doors? You see because it all lines up like you say with the fire of God because God watches us, you know He's everywhere so he sees everything that we do and yet a lot of times especially in ministry especially in ministry a lot of Preachers believe that just because a human can't see me. I'm good But that's not so you have to have integrity you have to have character Especially if you want to go far in ministry, especially if you want to go far in life period Whether it's in ministry or not in ministry wherever it is you have to have integrity and character So integrity is one of the results of the fire of God. What else does the fire of God do? Okay, so you're talking about how we need the fire and how the church needs to come to a place where they're accepting the supernatural back into the The essence of our culture again. Yes, and I totally agree with that now What else happens the fire of God starts stirring talking about a church on fire? Absolutely So Matthew 311 tells us that that Jesus John is speaking and he says that Jesus he will baptize us with the Holy Spirit and With fire. I love that scripture. He will baptize us with the Holy Spirit and with fire So first we have to understand that Where does the fire come from, you know, where does the fire? We know we talk about this fire. Is this a physical fire? This is a spiritual fire What is it and and it is a spiritual fire and we have to understand that it comes with the Holy Spirit if I can Give you an example if I'm checking into a hotel, right the hotel will accept me as long as I'm paying a payment All right, and not only will the hotel accept me, but the hotel was going to accept my luggage I don't know. I've never been to a hotel where it said you can come but your luggage can't right So the Holy Spirit is not only I'm sorry But the the hotel is not only going to accept myself But it's also going to accept what I bring with it my luggage the same thing with the Holy Spirit When we accept the Holy Spirit, we just can't accept him by himself We have to accept what he comes with him So the scripture says that Jesus he will baptize us with the Holy Spirit and with fire There are so many people that want to just take the Holy Spirit and not take the fire, but oh my rooster He had done a buyer. Excuse me. That's okay But but but right now in the church God is trying to baptize us not with just the Holy Spirit But also with the fire of God with also with the fire of God You see Luke chapter 12 verse 49 says that Jesus is saying I came to send fire on the earth And how I wish it were already kindled Jesus himself is saying listen. I've come to bring fire So many people would skip over that verse Jesus saying I've come to bring fire on this earth And how I wish he would already worse Was was kindled in Hebrews 12 29 says for our God is a consuming fire And then we we talk about an axe right axe chapter 2 where the Holy Spirit today of Pentecost We're you know people who flow in the spirit love love axe and axe chapter 2 where the church was born with the church was birth talks about how The Holy Spirit came as a rushing wind and that's when the fire fell down That's when the fire the Bible says they begin to speak and tongues as a fire And then we go into act chapter 4 verse 31 Which says after they prayed the place where they were meeting was shaken Hallelujah was shaken and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly So what else what else? Avengers David what else comes with what else comes with a fire? One thing I can say is the passion of God the passion to see God's will done the passion to see souls saved the passion to see other souls set on fire the passion to see The glory of God to manifest I have never seen a preacher who was on fire for God ever dole I have never seen a preacher who was always on fire for God never never had a boring moment in their life Why because they always kept that that candle lit they always kept the fire ignited on the inside of them Which of course we we received the fire of God by studying the word of God We received the fire of God by surrendering our lives to him We received the fire of God by staying in his presence By growing of a relationship with the person of the Holy Spirit the anointing is on you right now I'll talk to that one watching right now. We sing. I'm Luke warm. Help me Help me I want to talk to it. I want to talk to you right now You who are you living a life of luke warmness you're living a life for you You're on the fence even right now as I'm talking you're one day You're in the church on Sunday, but Friday and Saturday you're in the club Friday and Saturday You're doing everything that you don't know that you're not supposed to do and I want to talk to you you yes I'm talking to you right now. I want to let you know that God wants to release his fire Hallelujah, he wants to release his anointing on your life right now He wants to release a glory on you right now that I mean some of you all you may be feeling it on your body right now Well, guess what don't stop it Don't stop at surrender right now if all you can do is lift up your hands lift up your hands right now If all you can do is say the name of Jesus right now. He said he's here for you He's longing to hug on you He's longing to embrace you if you just surrender right now because the anointing of the Holy Spirit is here So right now I pray for every I pray for you right now who are watching right now I pray that the fire of the Holy Spirit will fall on you I pray that you would grow a boldness to reach those who are unsaved I pray that you would no longer will you be quiet and the anointing no longer Will you shut up when they tell you to shut up, but you would decree and declare Jesus Christ You would decree and declare that Jesus Christ is the son of the living God I prophesy over your life even right now Glory to God that the fire of the Holy Spirit just like an axe is falling on you right now Come on. Oh those who oh my God from Zion even you who are watching you're being filled with the Holy Spirit If you've already been feel you're being refilled even right now I pray that the Holy Spirit will fall on your household will fall on your jobs Right now in the name of King Jesus Hallelujah glory to God So Lord Lord we agree right now in Jesus name. Thank you And father I pray right now that the fire of the Holy Ghost would consume that one watching Lord let your fire Consume the flesh in Jesus name Lord burn away all that is not of you Until all that shines is the majestic countenance of Jesus And father I pray for cleansing. I pray for passion and I pray for renewed strength In the matchless name of Jesus Amen, I feel the anointing evangelist done There's something on you man, and you know This this is why we do this we love that the anointing of the Holy Spirit Can just flow through this program. Yes, I love that you prayed in tongues on my program I don't there's there'll be some comments. Well, you're not supposed to do it without an interpreter They should go reread first Corinthians 14. Yes. Yes, but you know I love that the Holy Spirit just flows through you and I love your ministry I think you're anointed and you're you know, you're you're in this season where you Not just begun the mention, but you you've just christened the ministry, right?
