Time is running out. 

James 5:13-18

 “Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing psalms. 

14 Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. 

15 And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. 

16 Confess your trespasses to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. 

17 Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months. 

18 And he prayed again, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.

As this church comes together, I ask a question: Did God send you here? Did the Holy Spirit draw you here? 

Genesis 1 says the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. the place the Spirit began to move was void of life, a place of darkness, a place of emptiness. 

Today the Spirit of the Lord is moving again. the wind has begun to blow upon the spiritually dead.

Ezekiel 37:9-10 Also, He said to me, “Prophesy to the breath, prophesy, son of man, and say to the breath, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe on these slain, that they may live.”’” 

10 So I prophesied as He commanded me, and breath came into them, and they lived and stood upon their feet, an exceedingly great army.

Revival is coming! 

Hear me, there is an Apostolic anointing upon us to do what we could never do. You cannot have it both ways. 

Let those who want to be religious and lukewarm continue without the anointing. 

But you do not have to be like that, especially if you want to be part of God’s great plan. 

Fall in love with Jesus again. Give him everything. Your life is precious in the sight of God. 

Who will you give it to? Make your choice today and do not delay, for the time is short, the apostolic anointing is coming, and the harvest is ready for your message of hope, love, and salvation. 

The anointing upon your life is about to be expanded throughout the earth.

A prayerless church is A church the devil loves. It causes Hell no troubles at all.

A preacher without the anointing, and a worship service with no anointing causes the devil no worries.  As long as it’s not real worship, he doesn’t care what you do. 

But a church walking in the Apostolic anointing causes hemorrhaging in the realm of darkness, and worship brings shockwaves that rattle hell like an earthquake.

I know you may not feel like an answer to prayer, but most of God’s children feel they are just misfits.  They say, “How can I be a child of God?” 

There are more orphans in the church today than ever, but the Spirit of God, through the Apostolic anointing, is putting his church together. 

The term Apostolic means sent ones. Jesus was sent here by God, the anointed one. 

God sent me here, and I have an Apostolic anointing upon my life. 

I’m on a mission from God. I know you have felt like a misfit, but you’re about to take the next step in your walk with God. 

A dead, prayerless church produces nothing. A powerless church isn’t God’s church.  

God’s church has power, and we can change the direction of the souls heading to hell.

I want to tell you about a dream! There was a hooded woman, dressed in a black robe. She had a seductress’s voice. she was saying, “Come to the Well of Life.” 

I ran to investigate. When I got there, I expected to see a well of life, but what I saw was nothing that I had imagined. 

People were walking like zombies to this well. They had no idea they were about to seal their souls in hell. 

I saw people walking straight into the hole, falling unaware of the danger they were in. The dead were floating in the hole.

I said to the woman, “This is not the ‘well of life,'” and I began to grab people and turn them from the pit. 

When I did, she came after me, and I ran from her, turning men, women, children, and teenagers. 

Eventually, I couldn’t run from her. The mission I was on meant I was going to have to fight her. 

I pulled a knife on her. This knife was exceedingly sharp. I feared this knife, but I used it. I stabbed her in the chest. She instantly collapsed, and she vanished.

Here I am today. We are a powerless church. Once again, we will use the sword of the Spirit. 

I am not trying to hit the heart of the enemy. I am going for the lungs. The devil has prophesied your death, your defeat, your marriage to failure, your children to be drug addicts, and that you would be a homosexual. 

The devil has prophesied that you will commit suicide. 

Demon spirits feeding on the joys of hell are drunk from the winepress of their dirty deeds. 

I am here today to tell you God has sent you here. 

This house is a house of prayer. 

This house is a place where deliverance is found.

This house is a house where we fight for the souls of the damned. 

I will not let you go. 

Jesus on the cross gave me tools to bring you back from the dead.

He died for me, and he died for you. The blood of Jesus is precious, and when it is applied to the hearts of men, it transforms them. 

I know you thought you were going to die the way you are, but the Spirit of God is coming for you.

I am here today to fight for you. 

Yes, you’re worth the fight. 

I too was in danger of going to hell. When I was 17 years old, I was an alcoholic, and I ate Xanax like candy. 

I was on a collision course with death and hell, but somebody prayed and God heard a mother’s prayer. 

Aren’t you sick of the sin? Are you sick of the addiction? Are you sick of being the puppet in the devil’s hands? 

God has given the church a key to the kingdom—the key of prayer—not a powerless prayer but a strong, effective prayer. 

A prayer life that is enshrouded by the power of God is a prayer life that affects those who are prayed for. 

Matthew 25 King James Version 1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, who took their lamps and went forth to meet the bridegroom. 

2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. 

3 They that were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them. 

4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 

5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. 

6 And at midnight, there was a cry: “Behold, the bridegroom cometh. go ye out to meet him.” 

7 Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. 

8 And the foolish said unto the wise, “Give us of your oil, for our lamps are gone out.” 

9 But the wise answered, saying, “Not so. lest there be not enough for us and you. but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. 

10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage, and the door was shut. 

11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us.’ 

12 But he answered and said, ‘Verily, I say unto you, I know you not.'”

You better hear this man of God.

The door to your time of salvation is about to shut.

 Verse 9 of Matthew 25 says, Go to them that sell the oil. 

This isn’t an oil that is sold at Walmart. Amazon doesn’t sell it. It’s an oil that you get when you give your life to God. 

This oil isn’t sold by the lb or by the gallon. 

Money is useless when you buy this oil. Rather, it’s traded. 

You come to God, give him your heart, and he gives you oil. 

You give him your brokenness, and He gives you oil. 

You give him your messed up life, and He pours the oil. 

You worship the Lord, and he pours the oil of his presence into your life.

Can I tell you about one more dream? 

This dream is about my granddaughter Hannah. This is the exact dream, nothing added. 

We were on a lake in a boat. It was a beautiful day. The water was crystal clear. 

It was an old lake. Trees were in the water underneath. I could see them. 

Hannah was standing in the boat between me and my wife. 

There were snakes in the water and alligators. They were hidden from the site. 

They looked like trees, but the alligators were huge. I was very protective, and I am very protective of my family. 

I had my eyes on Hannah and my wife. The water was very still. 

We were coming to a place where we had to go through a small canal of trees on a little island, just enough room for the boat to go through safely. 

You have to know Hannah. She doesn’t see the danger, or, I guess, she didn’t calculate the dangers around her. 

Hannah was being a wise guy and decided she was going to jump on the little patch of land. She is adventurous like that. 

When she jumped, she couldn’t see the little bit of water that covered the island, so when she landed, she immediately slipped and fell. And I saw a giant alligator coming up out of the water to get her. 

I saw him grab her in the hip area and pull her under the water. 

I was turning the boat around when I saw this part. When the boat got to where she was, I see the water was muddy because of the activity. 

I jumped into the water and was looking for Hannah. It was almost a complete accident that I found her. 

We touched hands. At this point, I grabbed her hands, and I could see the alligator had her, and he wasn’t letting go. 

I stood on the bottom of this lake and pulled with all my strength.  I had already established in my heart that I would die before I left her in the mouth of this beast.

I pulled so hard that it was as if it were a semi I was pulling on. 

The alligator opened his mouth to get a better bite, and when he did, I pulled her free. 

I drug her to the boat and pushed her into the boat with my wife’s help. Once I was in the boat again, Hannah was covered in blood and torn. 

She was saying, “Papaw, you came back for me.” She said this over and over. 

I knew she had given up when the alligator had her, but God hadn’t. 

This was what I knew when I awoke. Today, Jesus has come for you.

Can you receive this by faith? I believe you are the answer to prayer: “God sent you here today.”
