[Music]

i'm excited

i want to touch and agree before i do

anything else for those of you

who have invested into the kingdom of

god who have hooked the cables of your

faith to the power of his promise

expecting that there will be a transfer

in the spirit world wealth starts on the

inside before it shows up on the outside

healing starts on the inside before it

shows up on the outside

you start being healed in your spirit

before you're healed in your body

and i'm praying that there'll be a

connection and that this service will

jump start your faith

let's pray father in the name of jesus

we thank you for your many blessings we

thank you for your kindness

we thank you for your goodness and your

peace and your power

we thank you for your strength and your

tenacity

we thank you because you're long

suffering

because you'll put up with us bless

every seed that's sown and every seed

that will be sown

as people continue to log on let the

same anointing

fall on their gift as it falls on ours

we pray proactively

we bless what hadn't even come yet we

call it done

in the name of jesus not just

historically not just contemporarily but

proactively

we pray in advance practice

down shaking together and running over

in the name of jesus we pray

somebody who loves him shout amen

[Music]

ah say amen again

i'm anxious on this sunday morning to

share the word of the lord with you i

have been on a trajectory

all through january we have been

following the plight of the hebrews

in a captivity drug down into babylon

and i want to pick up where i left off

from last sunday

and go deeper into the word of god and

if you want to join me

go to psalms 126 verse 1-6

so you can hear what the spirit of the

lord is saying to the church

occasionally while i'm ministering the

prompter will come up giving latecomers

an opportunity

to sow into the kingdom of god so that

you can step into this blessing

that god has for his people when you

have it say amen

would you stand for the reading of the

word

it is in the book of psalms 126 division

starting at the first verse concluding

of the sixth verse

that we will find the canvas on which i

will paint the text

and the truths that god has shared with

me regarding your life

let us start at verse one when the lord

turned again the captivity of zion we

were like them that dream

then was our mouth filled with laughter

and our tongue was singing then said

they among the heath of the lord

have done great things for them

the lord hath done great things for us

well we are glad

turn again our captivity oh lord as the

streams in the south

they that sow in tears

shall reap enjoy

he that goeth forth and weavething

bearing precious seed

shall check this out doubtless come

again

with rejoicing bringing

his sheaves with him

can you say amen i want to go back to

that first verse i want to read that

first verse again psalms 126

and 1. when the lord turned again the

captivity of zion we were like them that

dream i read the whole thing but i

really didn't need it i didn't need the

whole verse

i really want to preach on the word when

when the lord turned again the captivity

of zion

we were like them that dream when

the lord turned again the captivity of

zion

we were like them that dream

let us pray as we consider

the subject god knows

when say that with me god

knows when said again

god knows when

said again god knows

when one more time god knows

when let us pray father

thank you for the privilege on this

sunday morning that you have endowed us

with the supernatural grace

to conversate with divinity

to convocate upon the cloud of your

anointing

to have this precious moment to be

saturated with truth in such a way

that we are affected all week long

because of what we heard today

now bind every devil and every

distraction when we're home there can be

all kinds of

distractions behind every distraction so

that we can focus in and hear

what thus saith the lord for in your

hands

are the words of eternal life

i believe you for it in jesus name

some believers say amen have a seat and

let's

discuss this word god knows when

when i read the text amidst the

magnitude of powerful things prolific

things that stood out to me

it was the one word win that captivated

me the most

when the time capsule

when the ambiguity of it

when the uncertainty of it

when the promise of it

the lord knows when is often an

expression

like you say the lord knows when i'll

get back to alabama

the lord knows when i'll get back to the

story

it's more of an expression but today i

want to use it more as a conviction

i want it to have more meaning than a

casual american colloquialism i wanted

to point to the fact that the lord knows

when

is my conviction i want to discuss an

absolute conviction with you just

something that you can really

sink your teeth into the lord knows when

his knowledge and sense of timing has

long been

a discussion of theological worth

that god knows it's where we get

omniscience

god being all-knowing knowing everything

from the beginning

to the end that the lord knows it is

comforting

to say the lord knows when especially

when i don't

it is important for us to understand the

lord knows when

to this to rebuke the tendency to

believe that our lives are chaotic

we turn on the television set every day

and we don't know what in the world

we're going to see

we don't know what's going to happen we

don't know what calamity is going to

phrase

there's a feeling of uncertainty there's

a pensiveness that's

inherent in our spirits right now

sitting on the edge not knowing what's

going to happen next

to know and to remind yourself that god

is omniscient

and that god has a plan and he has a

schedule

and he has a sequence and he has a

structure gives comfort

whether he shares it with me or not

for god often knows things that he

chooses not to share

like parents all don't always share with

the children

and children don't always tell their

parents it is possible to have

information and not espouse the

information to you

but the lord knows when it's like

children going on a ride and they're in

the back seat of the car

and they keep saying to you are we there

yet

yet they are comfortable to ride on the

car in the uncertainty

of not knowing where they are in the

journey they are confident because they

know that their father or their mother

has the wheel

are we there yet i don't know whether

we're there yet i don't know whether

we're at the end of suffering i don't

know whether we're at the end of

sacrifice

i don't know whether we're coming to

harvest or not are we there yet but i do

know who holds the wheel and as long as

i know who holds the wheel

i'm not worried about where i am in the

journey because i know

before we got in the car you had a plan

you had a map

you had a strategy you had a timing and

i'm going to wait on you

jesus at one point tells his disciples

he says henceforth i call you no longer

servants but friends

for a servant knoweth not what his

master doeth

it is possible to serve god and not know

when

it is possible to be your parents child

and not know

are we there yet it is possible

to be going through a process of healing

and know it's coming but don't know

when but then when is also a promise

because it it

lets me know that god has a win

that whatever i'm going through i will

not always go through it that sooner

or later god has set a date and god oh

you didn't hear

yeah i don't think you heard the power

of what i said god has a win

he's not making this up as he goes he's

not just contemplating he's not just

figuring out he's not just responding

to your moves your attitudes and the the

attacks of the enemy and the things your

friends say about you

god is not making it up as he goes you

are not at the mercy of your detractors

your critics your haters

you are only at the mercy of the timing

of god

and god knows when from the become job

the oldest

book of the bible job says to us the

lord knows

the way that i take and when

he has tried me ah

i shall come forth this pure goal

i might not come forth today

i might not come forth tomorrow i may

not even come forth next week or next

month

but when he has tried me i

shall not i might not i hope not i wish

i shall

come far that's pure go i know how the

story ends

i will not burn in the purification

of the fires that separate the dross

from me

forever i just don't know how long i

have to be in the fire to get all the

things out of me

for me to be pure gold but i know when

it's over

i shall come forth as pure gold

and every contaminant that would

contaminate my worth of value will have

burned off

in the process but not me

gold don't burn baby

drost burns golden burn

it may melt it may become softened

but it will never burn because it's gold

so if god allows me job says to put me

in the fire for a while

he's only trying to burn off those

things that would weaken

my value and i shall come forth as pure

gold

now i know job is not the first book in

the chronological order of your bible

but it is the oldest

book in the bible and from the book of

job

to the last writings in the book of

revelations

there's the consistency of understanding

take a minute and look at revelations 2

8 through 11 and the bible says and the

angel

of the church in smirner unto the angel

of the churches minor write these things

saith the first

and the last which was dead and is alive

i know that works and tribulation

and poverty but thou art rich

and i know the blasphemy of them which

say they are jews

and are not but are of the synagogue of

satan

fear none of those things which thou

shalt suffer

oh i will say that again fear none of

those things without shalt suffer behold

the devil shall cast some of you in the

prison

that you may be tried and you shall have

tribulation

this is what i love you shall have

tribulation

ten days

be thou faithful under that it's the ten

days it gets me happy

maybe the ten days doesn't get you happy

but the ten days gets me happy

it's good to know that before i get in

it

god has already given me a schedule to

come out

somebody i don't know who i'm talking to

but you're you're on your ninth day

god is speaking last fear none of those

things without you suffer

behold the devil should cast you in the

prison but you're gonna be all right

you should be tried but you're going to

survive you're going to have tribulation

but i put it on a calendar i got a timer

on it be thou

faithful unto death and i

will give you the crown of life

so from the first book of the bible to

the last book of the bible

we see the same thing being said the

final words in revelations declare

he that has an ear let him hear

what the spirit saith unto the church he

that overcometh shall not be hurt

of the second death this is important

for us to understand

that from the very beginning to the last

god has a watch

god has a watch and a timer is on it and

it's already set

solomon declares in ecclesiastes to

everything there is a season and

a time to every purpose under heaven if

nothing is running chaotically

everything is on schedule

everything is on schedule i said nothing

is chaotic everything

is on the schedule you you ought to

write that down everything is on

schedule it's right

i'm right where i'm supposed to be when

i'm supposed to be going through what

i'm supposed to go through

at the time i'm supposed to go through

it because god

has a time and a season for every

purpose under heaven it's not enough i

want to know my purpose

pastor i don't know my purpose please

pray for me that the lord will show you

your purpose don't worry about your

purpose

worry about your season because when you

get in your season your purpose will be

clear

and whether ever there is purpose is

going to be timing

and wherever there's a timing there will

always be a win

somebody just typed when when when when

when when

god knows when

god knows when god knows

how god knows what when the lord turned

again

our captivity when we left off

last week we were weeping we had hug our

hearts by the willow trees

and we had wept when we remembered zion

and we learned how to live off of

memories

we were sustainable because we could

remember days that were not this tough

i was i was talking to my wife the other

day and i told her i said

uh just just late at night i said i'm a

camp running water

she's she said what are you talking

about i said i'm a cam running water she

said

what do you mean i said i'm seven years

old i might kept running water

and i'm you think i'm here in dallas but

i may kept running water

because i was thinking about where i

came from i know how to live off of

memories

and all they had is they were drunk

shackled and chained

bleeding and ostracized and carried down

down from sweet jerusalem oh jeru

jerusalem jeru the city of

salem peace they had left the city of

peace

and gone into the plague of adversity

and not only did they leave they did not

leave up under their own auspices or on

their own accord

but they were drug and chains by the

babylonians

into captivity last glances looking back

they promised jerusalem if i forget thee

let my tongue cleave to the roof of my

mouth

that'll be some things that you refuse

to forget

and when they came down to the near the

river of euphrates

and there they saw the willow trees and

they hung their halves

on the willow trees and they went

jesus went all of us sweep

there are times you go through a season

of mourning a season of struggle

to be transferred i've gone through

seasons

of weeping not not not a few minutes or

an hour

seasons of weeping seasons of women

i can remember coming into the hospital

room

with my wife going up on the elevator to

see her mother who was in the hospital

and her mother expired

and with my own two hands i closed

mother's eyes

and i watched my wife turn into a ghost

and the room was filled with agony

and as our hearts would wreck with pain

we could not believe that somebody so

strong so vibrant so tough so full of

life

so powerful my mother-in-law was kind of

woman you either liked her you didn't

she didn't care which one you chose

how could she be gone

it was the first time that death had

circled in in recent years so close and

touched somebody

that was a part of our lives

and my wife was devastated

and you know if you know anything about

losing anybody close to you

that's not the kind of thing you shake

off in a week or a month

you don't shake that off in three months

that devastation continued and continued

and continued that i had to preach with

it we had to go to church with it and we

had

cameras in our face with it and just

when it was starting to ease up a little

bit my mother took sick

and got worse and worse and worse

and died with us holding on to her

that's her last breath

she was gone and i

wondered how in the world could i be

anointed and used of you and seeing

people heal

in my services and you not heal my

mother i remember preaching in this very

church

going to the hospital wet and laying my

body on top of hers and praying for her

and she still died

my best friend in the world

we were closer than two peas in a tiny

pod

she died before i could get over my

mother-in-law my mother

died and then my daughter came in the

room

and told me she was pregnant and it was

a season

of weeping have you ever gone through a

season of weeping

that before you could get out of this

here comes something else

and your heart is overwhelmed and you

smile in front of people as best you can

but you go home

please please let me go home so i can go

back to being real

because i'm tired of faking the smile

and i only told you i was doing okay

cause i knew it wasn't nothing you could

do about it anyway

and let me go back to my weepy

and we went when we left off last week

the children of israel were in a season

of

weeping and bleeding

and suffering and they hung their hearts

by the willow trees

and they wept they asked them to sing

how can you sing

the lord's song in a strange land and

people i

people honestly want you to perform like

you haven't been through what you've

been through

but there is a degree of pain that comes

so strong

that you have to shut down everything

there is something this conference you

can still function to

but there is a level of sorrow that is

so grotesque

and so obvious and so profound and so

demonstrative

that it was such a how can we sing

the lord's song in a strange land

they hung their hearts by the willow

trees

and all we could hear was nothing

nothing but weeping

there is a cry that engulfs the soul

that holds the spirit that takes you to

a place

where you wonder will i

ever y'all don't know what i'm talking

about

i wish i could talk to somebody who was

real with me because i get sick of

church folks sometimes

sometimes they'll catch you in your

grief and in your season of pain

and they're in their season of progress

and then look at a child if you just

believe

god everything will be all right if you

just walk in faith and claim

shut up

you in spring i'm in the winter shut up

you don't have no coat on because it's

not cold on your side of the world

but over here we're in the season of

weeping

and they wept a long time

and they wept a long time and i had to

come back

and preach this part of it to let you

know that there

is a time after you have suffered a

while

and cried a while and been empty a while

and been playing a while

and been lonely a while and been

frustrated a while

and been without a while and to have to

be denied a while

there is a place that comes along after

you've been confused a while

after you've been in anguish for a while

after you've been tormented in a while

there is a wind when when

there is a time my brothers and sisters

that god just says enough

i don't know who i'm preaching to today

but the holy ghost said enough

i don't know who this message is for but

god said enough

you've been in a season of hell and high

water but the spirit just said enough is

enough

you're coming into a wind and you're

coming into a release

and you're coming into a breakthrough if

you think that i

might be preaching to you give him a

crazy praise

right now

[Music]

[Laughter]

[Music]

type it that's for me that's for me

that's for me i claim it for mine

i reach up and grab it god just said it

now

[Music]

when god said enough i

checked it on my watch and i saw that

god had a time

to bring me out of my weeping

god has a time already set aside

didn't you hear the bell ring

did you did you not hear that alarm go

off

did you not hear that weeping may endure

for at night but joy comes being

in the morning do you not know

that god has a win

god had a point in their suffering

in babylonian captivity that god said

that's enough

i'll let you be drug out of your own

land i'll let you be drugged down and

shackled like animals i let your men be

castrated and your men be red your women

be raped

and i'll let you weep by the willow

trees and i did nothing to stop it

but i did keep my eye on the watch

and when the lord

turned to can our captivity the writer

here when he writes about

the lord turning our captivity he does

not have access to

all the things that god had to do to

turn their

captivity around the fall of babylon

denotes

the end of the neo-babylonian empire

i did it was conquered by archaemania

by the archamidian empire it was

it was conquered wait wait i want you to

see this

the people who conquered jerusalem

got conquered

see the the the archimedeans were

persians they were nomadic

persons that after 70 years

of babylonian captivity they came in

and conquered the conquerors

see sometimes god's got you on hold

because he's getting another group ready

to come in and deal with your enemies

god has a way of getting justice

out of the chaos in your life and the

babylonians were sitting around bragging

and poking fun and telling them to sing

and dance for us and while they were

playing with them

god was raising up the persians

to overthrow the empire in 539

bc god said

enough

and all of a sudden everything began to

change

and god used a young man who was the son

of a princess to come in the young man

was

lebasha marbuk

and he comes in and god uses him to

wreak havoc

and the babylonians who thought they

couldn't be brought down

god brought down listen america

be very careful

the babylonian empire came down the

roman

empire came down the kushite empire

came down don't you get high-minded and

think

that we cannot come down we've got to be

careful what we let go on

and what we let happen in this country

because it is possible

history teaches us that kingdoms fall

nations fall empires crossed

the babylonians thought they couldn't be

taken they thought they were bad

but the peasants came up

and they brought the whole empire down

babylon not babylon babylon's name

goes back to the tower of babel

but god still brought them down not

babylon babylon comes out of the old

testament mesopotamia

the new word we would have would be all

right not them but

god brought them down

god can bring you

he can shut it down that's why you got

to live

with a certain amount of humility i

don't care how many skyscrapers should

be or

how many jets you're on how strong your

technology

god don't care nothing about none of

that when god gets ready to shut you

down

he shut down the whole world with a

virus we can't even see and not one

atomic bomb did anybody any good

not one supersonic jet did anybody any

good

not ibm not xerox not google not nobody

could do anything about it

god used something we never even thought

of

a bug from a bird

shut down the planet

you don't know what god's gonna fight

with but i declare god's gonna get you

out of this

oh you didn't hear what i said i feel

like dancing right where i stand

you don't know who god's gonna use but

god's gonna get you out of this

he doesn't have to use the deacons and

the church mothers and the intercessors

and the deep

the bishops and the prayer when god gets

ready to use you

he can bring an idolatrous he can bring

a whoremonger

god has a way of using stuff that you

never even thought about

he'll use a jawbone of an ass he'll lose

two fish and five blood

when god says enough

he'll use whatever he wants to use

he'll use anybody he wants to use he'll

touch

anybody he wants to touch he'll use a

holly like rahab

when god says enough

he'll let a nation that you should be

able to beat beat you

he'll let ai conquer you even after you

conquer cata and when god gets ready to

bring

you out he'll use anything

and all of a sudden he began to turn

everything around

babylon was someplace that they thought

would never be destroyed

babylon was strong and fierce babylon

was posted

by the rivers of the euphrates it

started out as a small port

it grew into a great empire they were

ruling

and conquering and taking over but they

messed around and they took

god's children down into bondage and

when god

got sick of it he brought it to an end

and he stopped it

and babylon is reaping what they sowed

fred loved myself all the evildoers

and how they prosper in their own way

sooner or later

god will cause them to reap

[Music]

what they sowed you might be outnumbered

they may have more money they may have

more contacts

but when god gets ready to bring you out

he will bring you out i don't know who

i'm preaching to but i feel like i'm

talking to somebody

if i'm talking to you just type win win

win when when

when when when when when when the lord

turned again our captivity

we would like them to dream

in one moment

the weeping turned to laughter

then with our mouth filled with laughter

and our tongue was singing

the very people who were hungry hanging

their hearts by the willow trees and

weeping when they remembered zion

are now giggling and laughing because

god

has a win i i'm telling all of you that

are suffering and all of you that are in

agony

and all of you that are secretly

suicidal and all of you that are

depressed

don't get too used to being depressed

don't get too used to being

down because god owns a wind and when

god says

when he will bring it to an end and the

same

lips that quivered with tears and the

same face

that cried itself to sleep and the same

person

who rolled over and over in agony and

couldn't rest at night

god will make you burst out and start

laughing

when the light turned again our

captivity

it was like a dream

these people hadn't been free in so long

that free didn't seem normal

have you ever been denied something so

long that you got used to not having it

have you ever been alone so long that

you stopped being lonely

have you ever been in a crisis so long

that it became your norm

when the lord turned again our captivity

it was like a dream and the holy spirit

told me to tell you

you're gonna dream again when i get

through bringing you out you're gonna be

scared to believe it

it's gonna seem like it's somebody else

when i open up a door for you it's gonna

blow your

mind when i set you free you're gonna

say is that me

i don't know what to think about it is

this my house

could this be my job could this be my

husband

is that my wife you mean you would do

that for me

god said i'm going to bless you till you

have to pinch yourself

oh get ready to pinch yourself god said

i'll blow your mind

i'll cause you to prosper the contracts

will close

the property will sail the door will

open

the mountain will move the yoke will be

broken

the enemy defeated when the lord

turned again when he turned

when he turned god got to turn it he did

something in heaven

and it hit the earth realm he did

something in heaven

and god raised up somebody who didn't

even know me to deliver me when the lord

turned again our captivity

we would like them that dream it was

hard to believe

then while i'm out filled with laughter

and our tongue was singing

i want somebody to just start laughing

right now

i want you to practice your laugh i want

you to practice your

laugh i want you to practice your land

it's not going to seem like a laugh

right now

but i want you to start practicing your

laugh because god said i'm going to make

you laugh again

you're going to get right up in the

devil's face and laugh you're going to

get right up in the face of the

babylonians and go to laughing

you thought i'd never laugh again check

this out

check this out check this out cancer

leukemia

koben you thought you

had me i like to die but

god said i'm gonna fill your mouth with

laughter

and your tongue was singing and all of a

sudden i

am going to bless you so good that even

the unbelievers

are going to say the lord have done

great things for them

i'm going to bless you so good that

you're not going to be able to hide it

i'm going to bless you so good that

unbelievers are going to be standing

there with their mouth

hanging open in shock the bible said the

heathen said

the lord have done great things for them

and they agreed with the heathen and

said the lord have done

great things for us whereof

we are glad i pray a spirit of gladness

father right now

in the name of jesus i pray a spirit of

gladness

against every spirit of heaviness and

every spirit of forlorn men

and every spirit of frustration and

every spirit of defeatism

and every spirit of agony and every

spirit of witchcraft

and every spirit of evil and every

spirit of death and every spirit of

mourning

i pray a spirit of gladness would break

out right now somebody's gonna start

laughing in the holy ghost

you started out crying but you're gonna

end up laughing god's gonna give you a

belly laughter

a laughter down in your spirit and down

in his soul

open your mouth and make a joy for those

open your mouth to make a joy for god

open your mouth and make a joy for the

make a joyful lord

make a joy for no one make a joy for the

make a joy for

joy for joy for joy for joy don't

do it enjoy it do it do it do it do it

[Music]

do that joy is how we draw waters from

the wells of salvation

why did you let the devil have your joy

it's time to reach in there

and get your joy back reach in there and

get your smile

back reach in there and get your piece

back

reach in there and get your power back

reach in there

and get your happy place back

then with our mouth feel

with laughter and the tongue

was singing because

suddenly i got to see it

the lord i saw the end

of my suffering

i saw the end of it you're gonna see the

end of it

you're gonna see the end of it it's a

tough period right now

but you're gonna see the end of it all

of those things i listed that i suffered

i live to see the end of it i live to

see it turn around

i live to see it come out weeping may

endure for a night but joy comes in the

morning

you're going through a season but if you

hold on

you're going to see the end of it

the lord have done great things for us

have you thought about that lately

have you ever had to remind yourself how

blessed you were

that the lord had done great things for

us you know it's the enemy's job to

always show you the negative

but you got to count up the positive and

say you know what

it's not as bad as i think it is the

lord hath

done great things for us and i'm going

to go ahead and be glad

i give you permission to be glad i give

you permission

to have joy i give you permission to get

your smile back

i give you permission to get your praise

but i give you permission

some of you have not had permission

you've been locked up you've been

shackled down you've been bound you've

been held captive

by a spirit of defeatism but i break you

loose and i give you permission right

now

i break every bond of your spirit

well we are glad

we are glad

turn again our captivity

as you near the streams in the south

turn it absolutely around until i look

schizophrenic

turn it around until they think i've

lost my mind

turn it around until the last time you

saw me

i was laying down crying like that and

you thought i would never get by

and when you come back in the door i'm

laughing and dancing

and shouting and praying god will turn

it around

he turned our captivity

around and then the writer says

that you can handle it

the writer reveals

that the tears

we're never tears at all it was how god

irrigated

the seeds i sold

that not one tear was wasted

for every tear i shed

i watered a promise

and they that sow in tears

shall reap enjoy

now to all of you that i'm preaching to

who have not gone through

any dark places this is not your sunday

you can go ahead and log off

because this sunday i'm talking to

people who have been to hell and back

i'm talking to people who have dealt

with things they could say nothing about

i'm talking to people who have grown

within themselves

and i'm telling you it was not without

cause

they that soul in tears

shall shall shall

shall reap enjoy

i tell you it's going to be

schizophrenia

you're going to be sowing in tears and

reaping in joy you're going to sow it in

suffering you're going to reap it in

dancing

you're gonna sow it in pain you're gonna

reap it in purpose you're gonna sow it

in agony

you're gonna reap it in power god is

getting ready to bring us

into the fruition and you know how i

know cause all hell is breaking loose

that's how i know it because things that

you've never seen before starting to

happen

because we are seeing devils being

loosed out of the pits of hell

to come against us right now the devil

wouldn't be

fighting us if there weren't something

on the other side of this

and i don't know what you're gonna do

about it but i'm gonna hold on

i'm gonna hold on it's tough but i'm

gonna hold on

i'm tired but i'm gonna hold on i get

frustrated but i go hold on

i groan but i'm gonna hold on i cry but

i'm gonna hold on

god wouldn't be let this happen if there

was something on the other side of this

that was so strong that hell is nervous

and demons are trembling

and satan is open up the windows of hell

and he sent out all kinds of demons to

try to discourage us

but i'm going to stand i'm going to

stand until i see a return on every

teardrop

until i see a return on every night i

stayed awake until i see a return on

every night i felt alienated and alone

they that sow in tears shall reap

in joy and then he says he that goes

forth and weepith

bearing precious seed shalt

doubtless that's the word

doubtless he didn't say you might come

forth with rejoicing

he said you will doubtless come again

with rejoicing look at this

you left bleeding you left weeping

you left suffering he said but when you

come back

when you come back you will be bringing

your sheaves with you

pressed down shaking together

and running over they came back

better than they left

[Applause]

and i want to share with you when god

says when

there is a place that god just speaks a

word

and he just turns it all around

i don't know whether it's gonna be

thursday or wednesday

i don't know whether it's gonna be

friday or next monday i don't know

whether it's gonna be

march or july god

knows when all i know

is i'm waiting on my win i'm waiting on

my win

and when the lord turns again my

captivity

i am not going to sit there like some of

you high-minded

fanciful sediti self-righteous people

and act like i have not been waiting on

this

i am going to praise him like a imbecile

i am gonna praise him like an idiot

i am going to dance like i lost my mind

i am gonna take my glasses off and shake

my head

like i'm in a rock band i'm gonna walk

the floor

and dance and praise the lord i am gonna

be a fool for the lord

because anybody who's been through what

i've been through

i earned the right to make some noise i

am gonna get on your nerves i am going

to shout the shot of victory

i am going to lift my voice like a

trumpet i

am going to shout him to god i earned

the right to praise him

i earned the right to laugh all you want

to

but until you cried like me

[Music]

you can't shout like me until you suffer

like me

you can't rejoice like me until you've

grown

like me you can't dance a victory like

me

type it right now i earned this praise

i earned this praise you can roll your

eyes all you want to

you can talk about me if you will you

can send a text out you can write a blog

but i earned this praise i earned this

blessing

i earned this car i earned this house

i earned this smile i earned this life

i earned it i earned it i earned it

because i was faithful

when i was hurting and because i held on

when i was bleeding

i ain't gonna let nobody talk me out of

my praise

[Music]

now

no no no hell no

when god says when and now i'm not gonna

rejoice

because i'm afraid of getting on your

nurse

i want to get on your nerves i

fully plan to get on your nerves

because god

has a win for me he has a wind

he has a wind that's got my name on it

he has a wind that's already established

and i want every devil to know you can't

keep me in captivity

do whatever you got to do but you can't

keep me in captivity

not when god has a win

it might not come when i wanted it might

not come when i thought it was fair

and when it was right and it might not

happen when i did when i

thought i deserved it

but god knows where

god no sweat

god knows when so having done all the

staff

i'm gonna stand here with my loins curd

about with truth

you know i'm gonna stand because god

knows where

[Music]

as i come to the close of this message

[Music]

i want to remind you

that god knows when

[Music]

though the storms are raging and the

wind is blowing

god knows when and you think you can't

take any more

god knows when so all you got to do in

the meantime

is stand

just

[Music]

you don't need the answer just

seems like it's never enough

don't you give up now don't you give up

seems like it's never enough

watch the lord see you through

yes after you've done all you can

after you've done all you can do

[Music]

some folk don't believe it and they're

ready to give up but listen

the guilt of your past

tell me how do you deal with the shame

and how can you smile while your heart

has been broken and

[Music]

and it seems like you can't make it

through

don't you give up now

[Music]

you find a way to stand that's all you

got to do

[Music]

that's your homework

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

you say i don't know what to do i'm

telling you i'm telling you you just

stand in the middle of the storm

you stand i want to pray

[Music]

for somebody

[Music]

feels like you can't make it i'm not

judging you because i felt like that too

i want to pray for somebody who felt

like quitting because

i felt that too i want to pray for

somebody who said where is

god now

i said that too

i want to pray for somebody whose faith

is in a crisis

because you've been through so much pain

you said how could he love me and let me

suffer like this

god knows when god knows how

god knows who god knows what

i want to pray for you because i know

what it's like to have a pain that they

don't have a pill

for to have an

ache that cannot be anesthetized

i understand what it's like

to be in such a complex confusing

situation

that you think you're gonna die in

babylon but he's coming to get you

[Music]

and you're gonna come back with your

sheaves

[Music]

and you will get through this i said you

will get through this

you will get through this

you will you will you will

come on let's pray father in the name of

jesus

i thank you for your power

strengthen the feeble leader lift up the

bowel down head

[Music]

give courage to the person that's about

to faint

pouring the oil in the wine on the

wounds that we have that ache late at

night in our souls

and we feel like we messed up so bad and

we lost so much time but

is there anything salvageable at all

they were in captivity 70 years

[Music]

that's a long time

but when the lord turned again to

captivity

[Music]

it was like a dream your win is coming

i pray for you right now in the name of

jesus

that you won't bow and you won't break

that you'll stand firm on the gospel of

god

when everything's said and everything's

done

and all the haters have hated and the

spectators have spectated

that you'll stand up and start laughing

and tell hell i'm back

i'm back i went away for a while but i'm

back

i got my grip back i got my faith back

i got myself back

because i discovered that god

no swim if this is your word if god

spoke to you today

and you need special prayer there's

information on the screen

to continue the ministry that you need

so that you can walk into the abundance

that god has for you our prayer warriors

are designated and anointed

to help you get the breakthrough over

the specificity of the things that

you're agonizing about right now

if this is your word and it spoke to you

and it loose your creativity and your

innovation and you're ready to dream

again and build again

and birth again and start a business and

write a book and open up a company and

all of a sudden you feel motivated again

so into this word that's

my word i'm gonna sow into it

i'm gonna own it i don't care what

nobody else does

that was my words

[Music]

that's so into it and you laugh

right now but when i come back bringing

my sheaves

you'll see who's last seen

yeah you've been saying that for years i

don't care how long i've been

god knows when and

it will come

to pass this sunday morning i bless you

i bless your feet to stand i bless your

ankles to be firm

i bless your back to be straight and

your head to be high

[Music]

what tell them what to do

[Music]

tell them what to do

[Music]

believe god

[Music]

he'll show up for you

[Music]

says

believe in himself
