Time Text
I Will Pour Out My Spirit 00:04:54
And go over to Joel 2.28.
That's the Old Testament again.
I love taking Old Testament prophets and read how they talk about the last days.
Because God has a plan.
And he gives his plans to his prophets.
And Joel is a prophet.
And it says, it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour in the last days that means, I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh, all persons, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy.
So these people that doesn't believe that a woman should talk in church, you can't stop a woman from talking, but they don't, you know.
We're not.
In the last days, if you're in the last days, God's going to use everybody.
Yes.
Amen.
He's going to use the women, your sons and your daughters, it says.
And it shall come to pass in the last days, that afterwards, I mean in the last times, that I'll pour out my spirit upon all flesh.
So right now, we're in these last days, and all of these things are going to be happening.
But he says, I'm going to pour out my spirit.
Okay, I'm going to read this again.
And it shall come to pass in the last days that I'll pour out my spirit upon all flesh.
He's going to bless.
There's going to be revival.
It's harvest time, people.
Yes.
And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy.
And the old men are in there, too.
Your old men shall dream dreams.
I do that.
But here's the thing, old men, God's going to talk to you in your dreams.
It says so right here.
So your old men shall dream dreams.
And Ricky, your young men shall see visions.
You know what that means?
Revelations.
Yeah.
You get revelations.
I do.
I don't dream very often, actually, to be honest.
But I do whenever I'm reading or I'm sitting there and I'm meditating on the word of God, I do get quite a bit of what I consider open visions revelations.
You get revelations with that.
And just so people know, that will only ever come if you're in the word and you're spending intimate time with Jesus.
You can't expect to not ever spend time with him and know his heart.
Yeah.
And he'll guide you to where he wants to teach you stuff.
Absolutely.
And the sons and your daughters prophesying.
It actually means to prophesy.
It means to teach, but it means to speak or sing.
Yeah.
In the Hebrew.
Under divine inspiration.
It gets gooder and gooder.
This is Joel.
We're in Joel, good old Joel.
He's like our David.
We love, I love Joel.
Also upon the servants and upon my handmaidens, in those days will I pour out my spirit.
Now, that handmaiden is like waitresses, you know, like people that are waiters, people that serve, people that clean houses, you know.
So what he's trying to say to you, he said, the handmaidens, the servants, and it's, he said, I'm going to pour out my spirit upon anyone who wants it.
Anybody who will receive me.
That's right.
That's good.
And so it's even if you feel like, well, I don't get paid much.
I'm just a lowly servant.
He said, I'm going to bless you all if you want to be blessed.
Yeah, absolutely.
And it's a beautiful representation if you go back to the original context of it.
He's pretty much saying, I'll bless those who, you know, they are with me, but they're far from me.
I'll still bless them, but I'll also bless those who are very close to me because the handmaidens would work directly with you, where the as the servants would work out in the fields and you wouldn't really have much interaction with them, but they did associate with you.
And the good thing is about that's why every word is important.
It says, In those days, those days of what?
These days when the sun's turned to darkness and there's all kinds of things going on, he said, In those days, I will pour out of my spirit and I will show or give you wonders in the heavens that's in the sky and in the earth, the land.
There will be blood, bloodshed, there'll be fire, there will be pillars of smoke, and the sun shall be turned into darkness and the moon into blood.
Bible's Missing Volcano Word 00:01:56
You may times this scripture, this what God says this.
Do you know at least nine places I know of for sure that the Bible says the sun will go dark in the last days?
And I've never heard anybody preach it, never until I went to prison to have to study the word.
That's scary.
But you got doctrine built on thou shalt not smoke a cigarette.
I've heard of preachers literally losing their ordination because they took a sip of wine and a restaurant that somebody saw them.
Right.
But they can blaspheme God by gossiping and split the church in two, and nobody deals with it.
So true.
So it's important that we find out what the Bible says.
Yes, amen.
Let's go on.
And I will show wonders in the heavens and sky and in the earth, the land, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.
You know what that really is?
The Bible has no word for volcano.
That's a problem.
Because they just didn't have a volcano word.
And so it would be the pillars in a what is you know, a volcano is a pillar and the smoke coming up out of it in the fire.
So it's from the earth.
Yeah.
You've got here he's talking about the blood, the fire, the pillars of smoke, which is vapor and dust.
Angry.
That's really wild.
So volcanoes are fire and smoke, and earth is what?
Fire inside.
Yeah, it's just magma.
