 I think we live in such a tragic, tragic, dark times right now. The verse that comes to my mind is, Isaiah, what it says, the horizon shine for your light has come. The glory of the Lord is risen upon you and behold, darkness has covered the earth. What happened with COVID-19 is darkness covered the earth. But before COVID left, deep darkness covered the people. We thought COVID was bad. What's happening right now is getting even worse. Almost everybody forgot about COVID-19. The restrictions for social distancing and masking all disappeared. Because now we have another problem that is risen. Why? Because darkness covered the earth. Deep darkness covers the people. My friend, the solution in this day and hour is the presence of Jesus. Because that's the only thing that can take the evil heart out of a man and change it into a kind heart. Like Pastor Ilya said and I want to emphasize is that you cannot legalize evil. We can put rules. If we think the rules work, they never worked for Israel. The day that Israel received the Ten Commandments is the day they broke them. And it's that day, 3,000 people, the Bible says they died, but the day the Holy Spirit came, 3,000 people got saved. And so the solution for us, we understand as Christians. Now for the world who don't have Christ, yes, we push for that, we push for that. We have to protest. We have to speak out. We have to speak for our brothers and sisters. We have to speak for those that nobody speaks, 100%. But at the end of the day, if God does not take the heart of stone and give us the heart of flesh, my friend, it's putting perfume on a casket. It's putting a dress code on a corpse. It doesn't make the corpse come alive. What makes a person come alive is the blood of Jesus Christ. It's the repentance from sin and faith in Jesus Christ. Can somebody give God some praise? And that's why I think like guys like Martin Luther King, who knew the gospel and who knew that the change is not in violence, the change. Right now what I'm seeing, I'm seeing hurt. And when hurt people, hurt people, hurt people. Only gospel helps to hurt people to channel their hurt in a healing process, in a healing way. For those of you who've been married and I understand that a lot of people say you need to speak up against the violence that is happening in the protest and destroying people's properties, hurting people because your hurt is wrong. There's no justification for that. And it takes away from the real issue that we are feeling and we are seeing in our nation today. It overshadows the real injustice and the racism, the violence and the looting and taking all of this stuff that is happening right now on the streets. Reminds me of the story of Absalom. He was so hurt by the fact that his dad never wanted to talk to him that he told Joel, he says that Joel never responded. And you know what Absalom did? He went and set Joel's house, Joel's field on fire. That was his way of getting hurt. But Absalom is not an example of godliness in the Bible. And I think for us, for every person here today who's married, you know sometimes when you're hurt in marriage, when you're not hurt in marriage, you do dumb stuff. So before we go blaming the protestors wrong people with violence who are taking this violently, we go against that. But we also have to have sympathy because we all know what it's like to hurt and say stuff and do stuff in our hurt that hurts other people. We all need God. Victim or perpetrator. Those who are hurt and those who are doing hurting, we all need Jesus. We all need God. Because somebody say amen. And we need God to heal our land. And we need to have the Holy Spirit give us new hearts and new mindset and new attitudes in this day and hour. And I like what Isaiah prophesied. He says arise and shine. Church it's our time to rise. We are the salt of this earth. We are the light of this earth. Right now there's more division that's happening on social media than has ever happened in any other place. More people that are ripping this country apart who are believers. If you didn't speak out fast enough against this violence, you're guilty. If you spoke enough but didn't have tears, you're guilty. If you spoke too much, you don't like the other side. There's so much division that's going on and I believe that most of us need to get off of social media and get on our face before God and seek the face of God. Stop listening to CNN and Fox as God's inspired word. Pick up the Bible and find solution in Jesus. Come on somebody. I even one time some things seeing even different pastors, friends of mine. Terrified. I see sometimes the governor said he will do this. This governor said he will do this. There are threats and I see people trembling in front of the words of the government. My Bible makes me to understand that God will look on those who tremble before his word. And I wonder what would happen if we as Christians turn off the media for just a little bit and listen to God's word and shake and tremble before God's word and say God, I live for you. God, I will obey you. God, I will follow you to the end of my life. I am not advocating rebellion and I'm not saying that we have to disrespect and dishonor but at the end of the day for God's sake we're Christians. We follow Christ. We're not first Americans and then Christians. We're Christians who happen to be Americans. We're not Republicans. We are Christians. And we have to arise and shine. Not arise and shine in a political vendetta but arise and shine in God. There is only one light and that light is not in a white house it's at a white throne. And Isaiah says in here that's not in my nose. I don't know where this is coming from but behold the darkness covered the earth and the deep darkness covers the people. You know when the darkness covered the whole earth it's horrible. But what's happening right now, it's heartbreaking. It's heart-wrenching. Seeing a man standing, a black man defending his store because the people coming in destroying his store completely people destroying, killing other more deaths are happening right now than happen by that unjust act of that police officer. Deep darkness is covering the people. But the Lord will rise over you. My friend it's time to shift our focus back from culture to Christ. You can't help the culture if you are indoctrinated by the culture. If you are influenced by the culture. If you are drunk with the same thing that they drink from. You can only influence something if you're not in it. You gotta be above it. And to do that we have to show love. We have to show peace. We have to show compassion. For do that we have to bring the real change and the Bible says and the Lord will rise over you. And then you can rise above that. And you can be not a divider by a uniter in your family, in your community and in our church. The Lord will rise over you and his glory will be seen upon you. Gentiles will come to your light. Not to your opinion. Not to your Facebook post. Not to your meme video that only brings division but to your light. And that light is nothing else but the fire of the Holy Ghost. When the fire of God is burning inside it produces light. My friend, world needs light. Need another opinion. They don't even need another video of somebody saying that hey I'm against this and against that. That's all they do. They need light. They need love and they need the Lord. The world will come to your light. The kings to the brightness of your rising. Lift up your eyes all around and see. They all gather together. They come to you. Your sons come from afar. That speaks of discipleship. They will call to make disciples. Not just make statements. Your daughters will be nursed at your side and they will come. And you shall see and become radiant. And your heart will swell with joy. Not depression. Because the abundance of the sea will be turned to you and the wealth of the Gentiles will come to you. Come on somebody. I believe God is raising up a revival. God is wants to rise on us. He wants us to redirect our focus back to him. In this perilous, difficult and unsettling times. The country I come from there is a war that's going on between Russia and Ukraine. My wife is Russian. I'm Ukrainian. About four years ago Tri-City Harold did an article that says house divided. You know these two people that don't live together. They hate each other. There is this division that is happening where I come from. My friend is happening everywhere where there are humans because if there are humans there is evil. And there is evil because of Adam and Eve and it's plaguing our nation and plaguing our country and we see that, we hate that and that's why we have to redirect our focus to Jesus. Redirect our desire toward Jesus and when he rises above us we no longer react, we respond. We no longer vomit our feelings. We speak as we spend time in the presence of God and we speak from the light. We don't just go in and just because a lot of what I see on Facebook is vomit. Vomit makes everyone sick. But when you speak from the light you bring unity, you bring love, you bring peace and you don't react you respond. Every husband here knows the issue that started the fight is no longer the issue after three hours. Now the whole issue is how we responded to the real issue. And the whole thing about that started everything is no longer a problem because six hours later when you're sleeping on the couch you're not sleeping on the couch because of that small issue, you're sleeping on the couch because of how you responded and how you reacted. And my friend what's happening right now in our country we need to come back to God so that the real issues can be addressed because God wants to not only fix the actions of the people who are causing injustice but God wants to also fix the reactions of people who are hurt by it as well. We're all in need of God. We're all in need of God. Just a commomo right now where you're seated let's just lift our hands and let's just ask God for our land. I know Pastor Ilya prayed for that but next 60 seconds open up your lips right now and I want you to say God change our hearts. No, no, no not just the police officers not just these people say to you say God change my heart because we're all pointing fingers at other people but right now we need to point a finger to ourselves since God transformed my heart is there any racism in my heart is there any prejudice in my heart am I having some kind of a thing against another race or another color or another tribe or another ethnic group God forgive me God wash me with your blood make me like Jesus Christ your son let your light come through me God the world doesn't need vomit they need light God give me more light in Jesus name come on 30 more seconds I want to hear every person praying every prayer I know you can speak I know you can verbalize your thoughts because I see what you do on your videos so verbalize your prayer right now verbalize your repentance right now verbalize your passion for God right now oh God help us in the name of Jesus pour out a spirit of grace pour out a spirit of supplication I pray God that you will give us a heart that is contrite a heart that is broken a heart that sees Jesus the heart that loves people the heart that is hurting the heart God doesn't just share an opinion but shares light Lord we pray that you will give us grace Lord we pray that you will give us mercy in our own families God where some of us push injustice where some of us abuse where some of us God are pushing hatred in our own family God and while we condemn others of their hate God we support our own hate God deliver us from that God set us free Lord from hate speech at home set us free God from all the uncleanness in our hearts God give us new hearts give us new spirits God transform us from the inside out Lord let us be a soul that didn't lose its flavor but a soul God that preserves our communities preserves our families God and makes a difference in our world in Jesus name we pray amen amen to God be the glory God is going to answer that prayer you know how because we are all part of the solution that solution doesn't start on the street it starts at home how you treat your spouse how you treat your kids how you react how you respond my friend it starts with me and it starts with you revolutions don't start at the courtroom they start in your room in my room and let all of this cause us to examine our hearts to live to God's standards not the standard of culture with that said today we are celebrating the day of Pentecost and about a hundred years ago William Seymour who went to Topeka Kansas City and heard about the baptism of the Holy Spirit he've seen people getting baptized in the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues but he didn't experience it himself he came to Azusa street in California and he started to preach the message of the baptism of the Holy Spirit that preacher in the United States people start getting baptized in the Holy Spirit God started to come mightily people were being healed in fact there were reports of fire trucks coming on the scene because people saw the fire on the top of the building and they thought that the fire was actually burning the house down but he didn't speak in tongues himself he started to intensify his prayer going from two hours a day to six hours a day to four hours at night him putting his head in a cold concrete and crying out to God give me more of your Holy Spirit and lo and behold God baptized him in the Holy Spirit I'm a Pentecostal the Pentecostal movement started from a black preacher presenting the message the full message of the Gospel and therefore as a church we have to be united while the world is separated the Holy Spirit unites us the Bible says on the day of Pentecost they were all together in one accord they were different people but they were in one accord and the Spirit of God came down the verse I want to read is Acts chapter 1 verse 8 and the verse says the following but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you and you shall be witnesses to me in Jerusalem in all Judea in Samaria and even to the ends of the earth I want to highlight the word but why is Jesus saying but because after his resurrection disciples came and they got political what did they say? they say Jesus is this the time Israel will become the superpower on the earth are you the new king David Jesus because we got the army ready and Jesus says it's not your business when and how all of that stuff will happen the Father has it in his plan what Jesus was saying is political advancements violence taking over countries blood shed is not what he is king of he is the king of our heart and he doesn't win our heart dominance by sword or blood shed he doesn't win our heart over fear and over compulsion he says I win the heart through something different and he said but you will receive power and oh my friend it's not going to be white power it's not going to be black power it's not going to be green power it's going to be Holy Spirit power it changes the heart of man it changes the life of man it transforms the man from the inside out Alexander the great and so many great generals conquer the earth but only Jesus conquers the heart because you don't do it with the sword you don't do it with the force you do it with love and Jesus says I did not come to conquer like the rest of them he says I came to conquer from the inside out I came to take the evil evil heart out and put a new heart in and to put the Holy Ghost inside of that heart so that that heart can function and live for the glory of God but you will receive power it will be a different conquest it will be a different takeover it will be a different advancement than any other thing the world has ever seen because it will not be through hate it will not be through force it will be through a power that works by love the power of the Holy Spirit my friend do we want to see laws change you bet we do do we want to see our country have laws that protect the unborn yes you want to see the laws that honor God yes it will help our country but at least understand political changes don't change the heart when there was laws against homosexuality and against abortion it never removed the evil it suppresses the evil it never delivers us from evil the blood of bulls the blood of sheep covered the sin but only the blood of Jesus wipes them out what that tells me is as Christians we must take advantage of the power that has been given to us that is the solution for the problems we see in the world today that's what Jesus saw it one day Jesus will come and reign one day he will sit on the throne of David nations will bring him glory one day devil will be bound and thrown into the lake of fire one day antichrist and all of his lustuges are going to be defeated and destroyed one day a lion and the sheep will lie together one day there will be peace that exists in this world when the prince of peace will sit on the throne of David but until that day his conquest is not aimed at the white house it's aimed at your heart it's aimed at your soul and he said you will receive power when the Holy Spirit will come upon you as believers they receive the Holy Spirit in them the scripture says in John at the end after Jesus rose from the dead Jesus breathed on them and when he breathed on them he said receive the Holy Spirit they had the Holy Spirit with them in John chapter 16 Jesus says the Holy Spirit you know him because he is with you but he will be in you he was not in them yet he was with them watch this three and a half years of being with Jesus did not change disciples they still denied him forsook him and one guy betrayed him but the moment the Holy Spirit went from being with them to going in them Jesus was no longer there but something happened none of these men eleven disciples forsook Jesus none of them just maintained their salvation they flipped the world right side up they changed people for those of you who are like men I wish I would have been with Jesus physically my friend I have a bad news for you you would be unchanged you have the best resource available to you that changed disciples and it was not changed with Jesus physically it was having the Holy Spirit inwardly so Jesus says receive the Holy Spirit and at that moment after his resurrection disciples went from having the Holy Spirit with them to having the Holy Spirit in them see when Holy Spirit is with you he comes to be with you to convict you of sin when Holy Spirit comes to live in you he comes to convict you of righteousness see many people think the Holy Spirit is in a believer to convict him of sin but the Bible says he comes to convict the world of sin he comes to be with you so he convicts you of sin of not believing in Jesus not sin of smoking not sin of stealing those are the consequences of sin the real sin is the broken relationship between you and Jesus and when you believe in Jesus God gives you a new heart God gives you a new spirit you begin to change on the outside because you were changed on the inside any changed people we have in this house this morning my God and when the Holy Spirit comes in me he convicts me of righteousness why Holy Spirit? yes he reminds us of the wrong things he did but you don't need the Holy Spirit to be reminded of the wrong things you did when you have a new nature your new nature will do that for you what you do need the Holy Spirit is to remind you of who you are in Christ because people around you and your past and your consciousness will always remind you of your sin you don't need the Holy Ghost to remind you of your sin when you are saved you need the Holy Ghost to remind you you are righteous when you are saved because sometimes you don't feel righteous sometimes you feel dirty still sometimes you feel defeated still sometimes you feel alone still and the Holy Ghost comes to remind you you are righteous my God He comes in you to convict you of righteousness. He is with you to convict you of sin of not believing. But then Jesus says in here in Acts chapter 1 verse 8, He says, you will receive power when the Holy Spirit will come, what does it say? Upon you. Somebody say upon. Somebody say with. In. And somebody say upon. So when he is with me is to convict me of sin that I don't believe in Jesus. When he is in me is to convict me of righteousness. He comes in me, he brings his presence in me. But then when he comes upon me is to bring his power for the Bible says, so I can be, you will receive power when the Spirit will come upon you. So you shall be my witnesses, not gossipers, not divas, not easily offended, not whiners and complainers, but witnesses, not lawyers, but witnesses, not debaters, but witnesses. How many of you know you can be a witness if you haven't seen, heard, or experienced? You can only be a witness if you've seen something, heard something, or experienced something. That tells me that when the Holy Spirit comes, He releases power. This power will cause things to happen that I have a testimony of, that I can testify. I can witness of something. Why? Because I've seen things, because I've heard things, because I've experienced things. The Holy Spirit in me develops my character, but the Holy Spirit upon me releases me into ministry. My friends, Pentecost is not to make you Pentecostal. Pentecost is to make you powerful to fulfill your purpose, and our purpose is to win souls and make disciples. Pentecost is not so that we can have an addition to our prayer language. Pentecost is so that we can have a meaning in our Christian life of reaching the laws for Jesus Christ, of making disciples for Jesus Christ. Can somebody give God some praise right now? Hallelujah. There's something to wipe my face. You can't have more of the Holy Spirit. Thank you. When I got married, I got all of my wife. She did not come in parts. I didn't get half of her on the wedding, and the other half two years later. She did not come in sections. She didn't come in measures. She came all at once. But I am taking 10 years already to still figure her out. She's a deep mystery. I, you don't get, that's why you shouldn't pray, Lord, give me more of your spirit. You should pray, Lord, help me to know your spirit more. And ask God, give me more, because God gave you the Holy Spirit. He didn't give you a spirit. He didn't give you junior spirit. He didn't give you a trial spirit. He didn't give you, like, let's see how you do it with the spirit. He gave you the same power, the same spirit. But the issue is that you can't know Him more, and you can't know Him less. We all receive the same Holy Spirit at our salvation. Now, the challenge is to release this Holy Spirit. The problem is not receiving it. The challenge we have is how to release what we've received. Because you have the Holy Spirit the same way that there's water connected to your house, and the secret is not to call the city, say, add more pressure to the water in my house. The secret is to find a faucet that could release that water. Find a hose that can release that water and find a purpose for it. Because if you don't have a purpose for it, you'll flood the house. If you have the power of the Holy Spirit, but you don't have a purpose that you're deciding to live for, you are going to flood your spiritual life. You are not going to help people. You're going to use it to become famous. You're going to use it to become more important. You will use it for your advancement instead of advancement of the kingdom of God. The miracles and signs and wonders, they're not given so we can start ministries. They're given so we can win the lost. And so we can see the mission of Jesus continue on this earth. Somebody say amen. And so right now in the conclusion of this message, I would like to just touch on four things that we can do to release the Holy Spirit. I understand that I've taken already more time. So the first thing that I would like to mention is this. When you surrender to the Holy Spirit, you release the Holy Spirit. When you surrender to the Holy Spirit, you release the Holy Spirit. When Jesus died on the cross, He died for us. Galatians chapter 2 verse 20 it says, For no longer I've been crucified with Christ, no longer I live, but Christ lives in me. And the life that I now live, I live for Him who died for me. That tells me we as Christians believe that Jesus died in our place on the cross. Can somebody say amen? You don't have to die for your sin because Jesus already did that. Can somebody say amen? Those of you watching us on live stream comment below and say that you agree. If you agree with that. If you don't agree, we're going to get you saved right now. Because Galatians chapter 2 verse 20, Paul says that Jesus died in our place for our sin. If you don't accept Jesus's death my friend, you're going to have to pay for your own sins. But then when you get saved, Paul says this, Life that I live now, I live, I don't live for God. He lives out of me. He says that I no longer live. He lives through me. What I find challenging is, that's my personal challenge. I believe Jesus died for me. I do have a hard time behaving in the way that He lives through me. Because I, like many Christians, seek to live for God, which is the biggest hindrance to letting God live through you. I, like many Christians, instead of surrendering to the Spirit and letting the Holy Spirit live through me, I strive to please the Holy Spirit. The secret to Christian character is not to try to change it, is to stop trying at all and surrender. And surrender is the hardest thing to do because it gives you no credit for doing anything. That's why Christian character is called the fruit of the Spirit. It's not called the fruit of your discipline, New Year's resolutions, efforts and trying hard. My friend, if you want to release the Holy Spirit into your life and the power of the Holy Spirit, you have to learn, stop working on your character as much and start working on your relationship with the Holy Spirit. Start cultivating intimacy with the Holy Spirit because only the Holy Spirit can change certain behaviors inclinations and proclivities that are still lingering in your life. You cannot do that by trying harder. You can do that by trying different. And that different is surrendered to the Holy Spirit. I remember one time I made that announcement to my wife and I said, babe, I am no longer going to live for God. She looked at me and she's like, I said, from now on I'm going to let God live through me. She's like, okay, you get it. Good, good. But honestly, I started to practice that a mental shift, what I don't live for God. I couldn't earn my salvation. I cannot earn my sanctification. Holy Spirit has to live through me. And the moment I give the Holy Spirit, not a shotgun, but a driver's seat. Because many of us got the Holy Spirit as a shotgun, but you're still in charge of your life. Give the Holy Spirit the driver's seat. Let him live through you. You know that at the first Pentecost in the Old Testament was 50 days after Israel came out of Egypt. And the 50 days after Israel came out of the Egypt, Moses received 10 commandments. That was the Pentecost. 3,000 people died. When God gave law to men, it brought death. Until Moses got the law, all the complaining Israel did, never once they got punished for it. The moment they got the law, the first time they complained, snakes came. The moment they built a cow, death came right away. 3,000 people died. But on the day of Pentecost, 50 days after Jesus' death, God didn't send the law and God didn't send Moses. He sent his spirit. 3,000 people lived because they were saved. I'm going to tell you, my friend, the solution is not to suppress your flesh. The solution is to surrender to the Holy Spirit. The solution is not to put more guardrails, more rules in your life. If rules were to work, 10 commandments would have made people holy. I'm not against rules. Rules have their place. But in Christian faith, we understand it's the relationship with the Holy Spirit that changes me, not the rules. Having more rules is not going to make me holy. Knowing the Holy Spirit more is going to make me holy. Surrender to the Holy Spirit. Can somebody say amen? The second way that we surrender to the Holy Spirit is by speaking in tongues. Surrendering to the Holy Spirit, the surrender to the Holy Spirit allows him to produce a character with us. The second way that I've released the Holy Spirit in my life is by speaking in tongues. Speaking in tongues is a great blessing from God. Isaiah chapter 11 verse, Isaiah chapter 28 verse 11 and verse 12, it says the following. It says that you will speak to these people with stammering lips and a no tongue. That's how you will speak to these people. And you will say, this is the rest for the weary. And this is refreshing. Yet you would not. In the Old Testament, God already started to give symbols of what will it look like when the person releases the Holy Spirit by speaking in tongues. They will experience refreshing and rest. In Jude it says when we pray in the Holy Spirit we build our faith. In Corinthians it says when we pray in the Holy Spirit we edify, meaning we build ourselves up. It's a spiritual workout. Speaking in tongues is a workout to your spirit. It's building of your spiritual muscles. In Corinthians it also says that when you speak in tongues you can bless God, thank God, and you can actually give thanks to God through speaking in tongues. By speaking in tongues you can also make intercession and pray for things you don't even know to pray for in says in Romans. So what I want to tell you something is that the way you release the great power of the Holy Spirit in your life is when you surrender. Stop striving. If you want to see a change in your character the Bible doesn't say don't fulfill the lust of the flesh and then you'll walk in the spirit. It says walk in the spirit and you will not fulfill the lust of the flesh. It's not about getting your character issues under control. It's getting your intimacy going so that it could influence your character flaws. The way you release the power of the Holy Spirit is not trying to control your life it's trying to yield to the Holy Spirit so he gives you self control. The second way is when you speak in tongues. Feel confused? Speak in tongues. Feel lost? Speak in tongues. Feel like not connected to God? Speak in tongues. Feel discouraged? Speak in tongues. Feel not sure what to do? Speak in tongues. This is refreshing and this is spiritual renewal by speaking in tongues. Speaking in tongues is a language of surrender. Speaking in tongues changes things in the spirit atmosphere and for those of you who are like remember husbands how many times your words got you in trouble? You didn't even lift their finger you just opened up your mouth and everything in the house changed. You spend two days on the couch after that just because you ran your mouth. What would happen? The spiritual realm changes when you open your mouth and you speak in tongues. God did not create creation out of chaos by moving his hands. He sat on his throne and he spoke the world into existence only when it came to you and I that he moved with his hands. Right now God wants to baptize people in the Holy Spirit. You already have the Holy Spirit as a Christian but if you don't speak in tongues right now it's gonna be a moment where God's gonna touch you and you're going to just surrender your tongue that's really how you get the Holy Spirit is you open your mouth the Bible says and I feel it you open your mouth and by faith you begin to release sounds trusting the Holy Spirit adds meaning to them and the Holy Spirit takes over and the Holy Spirit takes over. There are people watching us on live stream there are people in this room who are here today and God prepared this day since the beginning of your Christian walk to baptize you in the Holy Spirit right now not toward the end but right now if you believe in the Lord Jesus Christ the Bible says God has already the Holy Spirit all you gotta do is you have to release the Spirit by speaking a language and God adds meaning to that in Jesus name in fact let's just do that right now while you're seated stretch your hands like this the whole church as many of you are Baptist in the Holy Spirit you're filled with the you're filled with the Holy Spirit for those of you watching us on live stream this is your moment maybe you've always wanted it you're like man this was this is not a strange thing Jesus talked about it apostles in the Holy Testament spoke in tongues so this is nothing strange this is not some Pentecostal craziness this is as normal as it gets to walk in the fullness of the Holy Spirit for those of you struggling to control your tongue this is your best remedy is to yield it surrender it to the Holy Spirit let's say this prayer out loud with me say Lord Jesus I thank you for the Holy Spirit Lord Jesus I receive your Holy Spirit oh Holy Spirit come right now fill me with the kingdom of God fill me with the presence of God fill me with the fire of God in Jesus name I surrender my body and my tongue to you right now I trust that every syllable you will add meaning to in Jesus name with eyes closed open up your lips with them just begin to pray in tongues whatever the syllables come on come on for next 60 seconds every person for those of you just trust the Holy Spirit the syllables that will come out don't filter them don't overthink them just release them just release them just as a child as a child remember it's a language of surrender it's not a language of educated it's not a language of the rich or the wealthy it's the language of a child to a father close your eyes just open up let the rivers of living water flow from your inner most right now God is filling people with the Holy Spirit all over this room all over the live stream right now as you are sitting in your living room open up your lips and just let the river come out it could be a one syllable just repeat it just let it go come on church 30 more seconds open up your lips let

speaking in tongues for those of you who spoke in tongues for the first time I'm gonna ask you practice it pray it all the time pray all the time in the Holy Spirit number three is the way we release the Holy Spirit is when we share the good news the power of the Holy Spirit is released into the world when we open our mouth and we share the good news there's a lot of fake news right now everywhere there's a lot of bad news but when you share the good news the power of the Holy Spirit is released and lastly the way we release the Holy Spirit is when we have supernatural expectation to happen in our life meaning when we expect impossible to take place when we make room for miracles how do we do that by the way we pray by the things we expect and by the dreams we have it's interesting because these three don't require master's degree these three don't require for you to come and be born in a good family these three don't require a certain skin color a certain religious status and a certain thing that you need to have that the world says you need to have how you pray what you expect and what you dream of the challenge with many of us is if we don't surrender to the Holy Spirit he doesn't produce the character if we don't speak in tongues we don't receive the refreshing if we don't share the good news of Jesus and we don't make disciples we will not see the moving of God in our communities there's one big thing also many of us play too safe and we give the Holy Spirit no room to move the Bible says in Psalm again and again they tempted God listen to this and limited the Holy One of Israel meaning what Israel did is the things they asked for the things they expected and the things they dreamed of put a cap on God and God says I felt trapped I was incarcerated by your negativity you only saw your past you never saw anything else and God says you put me in a casket can you release the incarcerated prince the Holy Spirit pray bold prayers not small prayers that's why when the apostles got beaten for preaching the gospel they did not pray for safety they prayed for boldness because they said a great power is living in us we can't limit it by just saying God keep us safe we were called to change the world not to live comfortable and they said God stretch your hand to do miracle signs and wonders and the Bible says God came and shook that place God says I like that prayer I know the threat came from the government and the religious institutions but you didn't limit me by only asking for safety pray bold prayers don't just pray too God give me strength to recover or get through the cancer say God heal me from cancer don't just pray God keep my kids away from trouble in school say God let my kids possess the gates of their enemies we're not just praying God give us a bigger building we say God make us a movement that the devil cannot stop my friend don't limit the Holy One of Israel you might have no money but you have faith you might have no resources but you have an expectation when you wake up in the morning don't expect everything to go bad expect good things to come to you because you have the Holy One of Israel who says make me room give me room to move give me room in your faith give me faith but what if nothing happens see you're only thinking about your father and your mother then maybe nothing happened to you you're only thinking about your friends think about the Holy Spirit even if you only have to dream big pray big and expect big only to honor the Holy Spirit do it for his sake don't pray small prayers don't dream small dreams don't expect bad things why because the Holy One of Israel could be incarcerated limited the Bible says the living water wants to flow out like a river for some of us it's not a river it's a stream and there's some of us it drops and the rest of us nothing not because the water is not there it's my prayer the size of my prayer and I'm not talking about the length the size that means I can go and pray for two hours God, God, God, God I'm doing so bad and that's what Israel did in the wilderness it was horrible we missed the audience we missed the cucumbers of Egypt it was so good in Egypt God's like I don't get it you wind in Egypt you want it out and now oh God, it's so bad and instead of enlarging in their prayer making bold and saying God the giants are our food they are our grasshoppers we can't wait to conquer that land because the fear has fallen on the promised land we will eat milk and honey God, you crushed pharaoh you will crush every giant God, you are the holy one of Israel your cloud is with us your fire is with us, God what nation is there that has God as their God you are our God you are our king we don't even have a king but you are our king we're just bunch of slaves but without medical insurance without hospitals none of us are sick God, you're so good we don't have restaurants but you gave us men oh God, you're so good we can't wait to get the promised land that would have released the holy one of Israel that would have released the power of God God wants to be released God is tired of being trapped God is tired of being handicapped by small prayers safe prayers bad dreams and all this stuff it's time to rise and ask for big things that's right on Wednesday I was doing a conference on zoom with my friend Matt in Angelica Road she says I spoke in tongues tonight I was baptized in the Holy Spirit thank you Jesus Rosalind said I fell heat in my back like electricity and I'm healed of asthma Ernest said my back is healed I can fully touch the floor with my hands Stephanie said I had a horrible migraine for three days and now it's gone I can't stop crying Sergio said something just left my throat Cecilia said my ears popped Yana says I was healed of eczema praise God and Wednesday before the zoom meeting I said God I know this is weird having a conference on the zoom I don't know there's no music like there this atmosphere is different but God I'm believing for ridiculous healings God I know I'm in my flip flops in my office but I'm believing God through that you will do something I've never seen done because see I understand it doesn't take a lot for me to ask for big things but it could mean a lot to God here's his kid not just asking for something small knowing God is able what if you pray big prayers and nothing happens I'd rather die in faith than live in fear my friend I want to challenge you he who lives in you is greater than he who's in the world I want to challenge you what Elijah told to his servant he says there's more with us than those against us I want to challenge you that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me it's time to reclaim your faith back it's time to reclaim your boldness and it's time to stop limiting the Holy One of Israel by small prayers expect good things expect miracles to happen this week for you expect doors to open for your business expect doctors report that will come in positive expect that when you lay hands on a sick they won't die they will live and declare the glory of God expect your child will come back home and they will not die out of drugs expect that things will turn around for your spouse in Jesus' name right now what I want us to do is we're going to pray because the day of Pentecost is the best day to pray for miracles and nothing impossible is possible with God now in Jesus' name if you're watching us on live stream if Ilya and Ivan come up right now if you're watching us and you have a sickness that

say you're only not sure on Sunday because on Monday you're taking medicine like nobody's business because you're certain I want to beat this thing and then on Sunday you become theologically schizophrenic because you're not sure and I was like if you're so not sure throw away the medicine then I say but you won't do that because you know it's God's will for you to be healthy why don't you agree with us right now God is on your side He wants to help you we've seen a lot of people being healed we're not against medicine we're for medicine please take medicine go to the doctors get health

I would like to give you an opportunity on this day When the Holy Spirit came upon church three thousand people God saved God is interested in your salvation God came through Jesus and died in your place for your sin the Bible says sins separates men from God Not only on this earth do we experience suffering and demonic torment but for eternity without the end There is no exploration eternity is very very long. It's very very hot and it doesn't have an end It's a place of hopeless suffering It's not a place where God created for the humans But for the devil and his demons but everyone who denies Jesus who lives in sin follows the devil That's exactly where they're going after with the devil. You don't want to go there If you have not given your life to Jesus Christ today is the best day Don't postpone it for tomorrow Don't comfort yourself with oh, I'm a good person if you would be a good enough God wouldn't send Jesus on the cross You are not good enough to go to heaven. You might be good enough not to go to jail You're not good enough not to go to heaven. Maybe you're saying well, I grew up Catholic my friend God You don't become a Christian by going to a Catholic church or Christian church You become a Christian by following Jesus and repenting of your sin If you would like to do that today and you say well, I would like to accept Jesus in my heart I would like to accept him as my Lord and my savior If you are in this building, I want you to just raise your head.
