Speaker 1 (00:05):
Will God bless you. God, bless you, God, bless you.
Welcome to the hour of deliverance. Now here we go. Me,
I'm Reverend doctor K. E. Holmes. You more importantly, you
are a person of excellence. Now. That is the truth
of God, not just the truth coming from some lady
(00:27):
or some reverend or some doctor or some theologian. That
is the absolute truth of God, who made man. And
that's true. Whether you believe in God or don't believe
in God, that is true. Whether you've given yourself to
Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior, that is true. And
I want you to know it. And I also want
(00:49):
you to know that tuning in here, whether you tuned
in live, whether you tuned in some other time, even
if you had tuned in some other century, if Jesus
doesn't come, you tuned in because you are a person
of excellence. You are a person of excellence. And the
(01:13):
thing about that is that you came here that way. Yeah.
God anointed and appointed and equipped you that way from
the lamb slain from the foundation of the earth. And
I do want to go to that scripture, but I'm
letting you know if you know how to look up scripture.
Look that one up. There are things that God did
in the lamb of God who was slain from the
(01:35):
foundation of the earth. And one of those things is
He anointed and appointed you and equipped you for what
you are ordained for. Now, most especially people of excellence,
are anointed, appointed, equipped, and ordained from that aspect. Now,
(01:55):
that doesn't mean that's the only aspect I know we
of Churchianity. I said that on purpose. I didn't say Christianity.
I said Churchianity. Christians who make doctrines out of right things,
but they become doctrines that mean other things. My term
for it, not God's. My term for it is Churchianity
(02:19):
now in that we tend to learn things that are true,
and then we disallow anything else that could also be true.
For example, I heard a couple of pastors yesterday talking
(02:40):
about God speaking in a whisper and saying it in
a way of that's the preferable way, and that comes
from and most of us can't even we can know
how to look up the scripture. We don't even know
where we're saying it from. That God spoke with a
still small voice and doctrinally for at least a few
(03:03):
hundred years, we've made that the way to prefer to
hear God. God didn't make it that way in that situation.
He did, but that was with Elijah, who was used
to God moving mountains, speaking loud, I mean fired down.
(03:26):
If you remember the showdown. Elijah was used to God
being a big, blast, show out champion kind of God.
And in that particular situation, and I might want to
look it up. I'm gonna say this out loud because
I wanted to go to this scripture for what we're
(03:47):
going to deal with. I wanted to go to the
Exodus scripture of the first Passover Exodus. I'm looking at
Exodus twelve eleven. I'm saying that out loud because I
want to go to still small Voice, and that's from
(04:16):
First Kings nineteen twelve. I'll read the verse, and after
the earthquake a fire, but the Lord was not in
the fire, and after the fire a still small voice.
Now that's First King's nineteen thirteen. I already let you know,
I'm a theologian, okay, And as a theologian, I know
(04:39):
to look at things like after that means something went before.
So you want to know what went before, and you
want the principles of what went before. You want the
context of what went before. It's kind of like if
you have a map to go to broad Street, but
(05:00):
you're on South Street, you need to know what comes before. Yesterday,
I haven't ridden a bus in decades, and yesterday I
was looking for a bus and one bus came and
it was had the right number, but it said it
was bound here, and I'm like, well, that's that's not correct,
(05:25):
but it's what came before. Well then a couple more
buses came, but wrong number but right direction. And it's
like that in God's word, you want to know when
he says before and after that, depending on what he's
(05:45):
revealing to you or what you're searching out, those are
things you want to pay attention to, but we tend
not to. So the example that I wanted to give
with this is that when you look up at with Elijah,
and he was one of the most profound prophets for
demonstration of things and demonstration of God in magnificent ways,
(06:11):
not just more for everybody around than personal. Except for that,
it makes you think he had to have a very
close personal relationship. And I don't think that's a wrong assumption.
(06:32):
The thing of it is when you look at Elijah.
He headed up the School of Profits, and a whole
lot of things went on with the School of Profits.
So they were used to God moving in profound and
loud ways. And I know me, I don't want to.
(06:55):
I want to, but I shouldn't. Here I am at
first King's nineteen one and it begins with ann. So
just the thing I just now told you that something
came before it, and they have told Jezebel all that
Elijah had done. So when you go back back and
look at all that Elijah had done, you're going to
find that God spoke loud, God spoke magnificently. And you're
(07:18):
also going to find Elijah had personality. He'd make fun
of you if he felt like it. Don't think a
prophet is so religiously bound, because Elijah made fun He
made fun of folk, and he made fun of their
beliefs that were ridiculous, and he would let you know
(07:41):
it was ridiculous. So what I'm showing you is and
I want you to go look it up. But God,
Elijah was used to God dealing loud, strong, and like
it said the things that he knew to look for
(08:04):
the things that he knew that God has no problem
like with Moses. When God went to reveal himself to Moses,
it was a bush that wouldn't burn. It was fire.
And then when he went to reveal himself after they
left out of Egypt, he's talking to the people and
(08:24):
he's making this loud, loud, loud noise. And I hope
most of you haven't had to experience what it sounds
like an earthquake on the top of a mountain or
the mountain's shaking, because it's frightening, even when you know
what it is, it's frightening. However, that's what God did.
(08:45):
And then he made lightning and fire. That's what he did. God.
I'm talking about God. And then he spoke. And I'm
saying this because in my lifetime, actually few decades ago,
a few a generation ago, Uh, it was common in
(09:05):
different denominations, conservative type denominations to not want the the
choir or the worship team to get too excited and
go two months because it's the word that's most important
and and we want we want to get to the word.
And it would always stand out to me, Yeah we do, yes,
(09:27):
we do. We want to hear God's word. However, the
thing that I just shared with you, when God spoke
to the children of Israel, Uh, he made a whole
lot of noise on the mountain. He made a whole
lot of fire on the mountain, He made a whole
lot of lightning on the fountain, on the on the
mountain before he spoke. And then when he spoke, the
(09:49):
people needed to get away so that they could hear.
So back to this thing of Uh, what was it now?
The still small voice that all the places that He
knew to look right now? We are living in times
(10:10):
that are like that. I'm saying, the places that you've
gotten used to looking for God to move, the ways
that you've gotten used to God moving. And here some
of you are going to come up with, there's no
new thing under the sun. Well, guess what, there's a
(10:34):
whole lot that's new to you. It's not new under
the sun. However, God will bring something to you in
a way that's different than what you're used to. And
even that for some of you that He are rhyming.
I learned about me that when I'm rhyming, I'm in
prophetic mode. That was something God taught me I knew
(10:56):
that I was a poet. I was a poet before
I came to know the Lord, and I thought poetry
was for certain things. And after I came to know
the Lord, I learned the thing that I just shared
with you, that when God's annointed appointed and equipped you
for certain things, and especially in excellence. He did that
(11:19):
in the Lamb slain from the foundation of the earth.
So I was award winning poet before I ever came
to know the Lord, and then a few generations of
almost every decade after, I was award winning poet again.
And one of the things about people of excellence is
that you don't see yourself that way. People of excellence,
(11:44):
you're usually dealing with stuff, and I'll tell you now
that this one will resonate with you. You deal with
stuff that most people don't have to. You deal with
stuff that's bigger and more ridiculous, or more profound or
more dangerous than what most people have to. For example,
(12:07):
right now, I'm dealing with several people who have lost
their home, and to every single one of them, it
is more devastating than what they know to do with. However,
some lost their home due to fire, and even in
(12:31):
that right now, I'm thinking of one fire in a
city where the fire firemen came, but they lost everything
in their home, their home burned up, and another forest
fire in a whole other I'm in Pennsylvania right now,
and this was not in Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Now, while each one experienced losing everything, losing their home,
the experience is not the same.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
As when you lose your home because of bills or
because of all the different things, the experience of it
is different. And I'm letting you know, people of excellence,
you go through things that are bigger, harder, stronger, and
lasts longer than most people, and you're so busy going
(13:26):
through it that you don't recognize and you don't see
yourself that way. One of the examples that I have
given recently, and I think I'm going to be giving
it more often because God keeps revealing to me that
the times and the cycle of time that we are
in is like this, and that is someone who's saven
(13:47):
that I let you know that there's different situations and
they're not babes going through it. They're not just babes.
Babes are going through it, but it's not just babes.
The strong, the Mighty, the men of valor, the when
of the people of excellence are going through it, you're
not cry babies. And each of those set of things
ends with they cried to the Lord because it's too
(14:11):
strong and too long. And immediately God says, I delivered them.
That's something that you want to know in your relationship
with God and in your not in relationship with God.
So here, in this situation of the still small voice God,
(14:34):
all the ways that elign is used to God moving
and doing and it wasn't that, and it wasn't that,
and it wasn't that. If you're used to goosebumps and
you know God spoke and you're waiting for the goosebumps,
(14:56):
just like that verse, still small Voice, Oh, it wasn't
in the mountain, it wasn't in the goosebumps, wasn't in
the fire, it wasn't in the Oh my head is
spinning or oh my gut felt that. It's into something
that is different for you. However, let's not make that
(15:22):
a doctrine. And again, in Churchianity right now in the
changing of times, what God is doing is correcting these things,
and sometimes some of those ways is just bringing us
out of it, because most of us don't even know
that we're in it when we're in it. Usually, when
(15:45):
God's people get into doctrinal things that are totally wrong,
we are thinking we're totally right and have gone into
idolatry with it and don't realize it. None of us
mean to go into I don't. We're not doing that
on purpose. And when I say none of us, the
scripture shows you some that that's what they meant to do.
(16:07):
They meant to go worship this God and that God.
Because I may as well try something. However, if my people,
you know the scripture, are called that are called by
my name, see his name. His name was all the
(16:28):
power in his name. Before we even knew the scriptures
about his name. His name was that before he told
us that. Okay, so I want to move on from
the Elijah and I want to bring something about We're
in a time where communion is extremely important. However, doctrinally
(16:56):
we have gotten used to taking communion a certain way,
and to the point that we almost don't recognize that
the four Gospels, when it gives the Last Supper, give
a different aspect. And I like to park on. They
(17:19):
sang a hymn went out, and yeah, I want to
stop and tell you why. However, I want to get
onto when we are in times that are for the
changing and the correction of error. Whether it's error we
(17:41):
know or error we don't know, it's still error, an
error that becomes idolatry to continue in. We want to
pay attention. Though it's in the Book of Revelation. It's
not new. He who has an ear, let him hear.
(18:06):
Having an ear means hearing, and it means hearing righteousness.
It means hearing truth. And that's even before you get
to the Gospel of John that tells you that He
is truth, that Jesus is. Jesus didn't become Messiah just
(18:26):
because we learned that in the Gospels. The good news
was good even before. Think about this, when news is
being printed or a newspaper or magazine, or when news
is being gotten together and gathered to go out on
a broadcast, that news was the news before it ever
(18:51):
got out to you. They're go rhyming again, that news
was the news before it got to you. Realize that
about God's way, the things that he reveals to us,
he was that and that was that beforehand and most
of the time. Just now hearing myself say that was
(19:11):
that reminds me of Peter at Pentecost, the Pentecost that
we like to remember because we forget the other ones.
In Acts two, when he says, this is that that
was spoken by the prophet Joel. You go to the
prophet Joel, and you wouldn't have gotten that revelation from that.
(19:34):
You wouldn't have known that this is that except God
reveal it to you. And then I want to remind
us that when you know what Peter was like, Peter
could get the revelation of God and he could also
get some other idea. God taught me this about me,
that I have ideas and ideals that I just think
(19:57):
are so correct. And then he let me know. I
shared with you my poetry book, the Chamber Poems. Yeah,
I thought one way to forgive is just forget about it.
And I thought that I was doing that because in
God's word he lets us know that he doesn't remember
(20:21):
our sins against us, And it doesn't mean he doesn't
know what they are. He doesn't know what they were.
It's telling us that he's not holding it against us.
So some of the things that I want to bring
to bear in the communion, things that we tend not
to make the connection what I like to call connect
(20:44):
the dots. And that's because I used to be an artist.
I shouldn't say it used to be because God made
me an artist. And just because I haven't taken to art.
I got myself through college doing art. I didn't know
I was that good. And before the paint would drive
people wanted to buy the painting and they would pay more,
(21:08):
just a bit more than what my tuition was. When
I didn't know where it was coming from. That made
me no key painting. I didn't think I was an artist.
People of excellence, you rarely see the nose on your face.
You really rarely recognize until looking back after the fact.
Like God told Moses, you're gonna know when you're out
(21:30):
here on this mountain, you and the people of Israel,
you're gonna know when you're out here on this mountain
worshiping that I said this to you. And the way
we are. We want to know God said what he
said before we even get moving, kind of like when
we when we take a look on the map, we
want to know here's where we started and here's where
(21:50):
we're going. And so we want to know from from
from the get go, from the start, that this is
how to get there, and this is the way. And
if you're like me, I put in there the easiest way.
I put in the no tolls way or or the
tolls way or the quickest way or whatever. We do
that without knowing the obstacles in between. God knows. So
(22:18):
here we go the first Passover. If you recall God,
let them know that they're going to leave Egypt. Now,
this is after they've been enslaved. I want to go
back to let's see if I can get back to Yeah,
(22:40):
this was after they had I'm going to look in
Exodus twelve again and the Lord spacer Here we go,
And so there's a whole lot, a whole lot of
context that went before. And the Lord's spaken to Moses
and Aaron. And that's another thing of context that you
(23:01):
want to look up in the land of Egypt. See
when you're in your situation, that's captivity that's prejudiced against you.
That doesn't even make good sense. If you recall that
Egyptians wouldn't even sit, you couldn't even have dinner with
those sheep herders. This month shall be unto you, the
(23:28):
beginning of months, the beginning of a cycle of times,
the beginning of a tradition, and also the beginning of
several of those things. So you want to look at that.
It shall be the first month of the year unto you.
Now we count ours. We don't recognize it. Most of
us we count ours. According to the Roman calendar, that
(23:51):
was a trick by an extremely intelligent man who had
given his life to the Lord. Wanted to make sure
it didn't cost him is throng, and he found the way.
So this calendar, I don't want to concentrate on that
(24:12):
right now. I want us to understand about the bread,
because I'm talking about communion, the bread and the wine.
But one of the first things about the bread, and
I'm going to say it now so that if I
don't look it up for you and tell you where
it is. The scripture tells us a little leaven. Leaven's
the whole lump. And God is the one who said
(24:39):
no leaven, no leaven. And when you realize it, it
wasn't just that no leaven. The leaven was in there.
It's that not giving it time to rise, because you
need to be on the move before it has time
to rise. I used to bake bread every day raising
my kids. Baked three he loves every single day from
(25:02):
scratch and gave it the time to rise, and that
was before they got up in the morning. I was
a person who hated the sound of alarm clock and
made me want to put my fist through one, and
not that I would. Well, before I was saved, I
knew that I would, and that the sound of the
alarm made me feel that way. I had to find
(25:23):
another way, and I learned that the smells of cooking
makes it wakes you up, and it wakes the other
people up who need to wake up in the house,
and it wakes you up with happiness and joyfulness and
expectation rather than okay, so speaky twelve three Exodus twelve three,
(25:47):
speak unto all the congregation of Israel, and here again,
how does that happen? How do you speak to the
whole congregation? God? Let you know it was over a
million people that came out, come on saying here again,
saying I'm always sharing with you that God taught us
in creating the earth. God said, God said, God said,
(26:10):
and then the Faith chapter lets us know through faith
we understand that the worlds were framed by the word
of God. And that's not all it says. I'm just
giving you these pieces of nuggets to know that God
Jesus said, I only do what I see the Father do.
I only say what I heard the Father say. I'm
(26:33):
sharing with you, trying to connect the dots with you
that in Genesis one, God's teaching us. He's not just
demonstrating himself, yes he is. However, he's showing us how
to be like him, the aspects in which we are
made in his image and made like him, and that
we can do the things that he did. And so
(26:56):
he taught us saying so now when he's saying speak
ye okay. Now they're the called out leaders. You do
the speaking, not what everyone's saying to one another. Because
when we get to I think it's Ephesians, you find
that you want to minister grace to those that hear you. However,
(27:24):
speak ye, the heads, the leaders and the priesthood. And
now I want to remind you we are now a
royal priesthood, and we need to have learned what priesthood
is about. We don't think so in Churchianity. I'm letting
you know through God's word, he gave these examples so
that we understand the different aspects and things of priesthood,
(27:45):
and the different aspect of things of royalty, and the
different aspects of men of valor, leadership, and so on
and so forth. Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel,
so that they heard it from you, and not just
from each other, and not the chatter that can go
(28:06):
through each other, because they're gonna hear the other stuff.
But they needed to have heard it from you. In
the tenth month, it pardoned me. In the tenth day
of this month, they shall take up them every man
a lamb according to the house of their fathers, a
(28:27):
lamb for a house. Our family, the Holmes family, wrote
a song. I think I wrote it. But it's a
lamb for a house. It's a lamb for a house
with the blood on the door post. It's a lamb
for a house. It's a lamb for a house. It's
(28:50):
a lamb for a house with the blood on the
door post. It's a lamb for a house. Now, now
we know that Jesus was the lamb. But I'm showing
you that God was showing that thing way back there
with the blood on the doorpost and in the apostle
(29:12):
Paul he in Silas locked up in jail. Yeah, you
get to find out when they gave praise and and
and the chains were loosed. Uh huh, okay, I want
to go there. But let's let's it's a lamb for
a house. We get the revelation of it owing the gospels.
(29:34):
But the thing that was so, it was so way
back then, and God only gave it in part a
lamb for a house. And then, oh my, he gave
the very thing that the Egyptians were prejudiced against. These lambs.
They stink and it makes the people stink that raise them,
(29:57):
couldn't stand them. And yet it's what God said do.
And another thing about this, and if the household be
too little for the lamb, everybody doesn't have the same wealth,
everybody doesn't have the same ability. So though God gave
the command, here's what we're supposed to do, so that
(30:17):
everybody can do God's command. Here's what we are supposed
to do. And we learned that in communion later to
wait from one another. That's not new here. It is
let him and his neighbor next to his house. Take
it according to the number of the souls every man
(30:40):
according to his eating. Shall you make your count for
the lamb. You don't leave your neighbor out just because
you know what God told you. If you know your
neighbor doesn't have a love, or can't or whatever it is,
help him obey God's word, help him come into the blessing,
help him come into the promise. And that's whether or
(31:02):
not you see it that way. Me I see it
that way. You might not see it that way. You
might be one of those like I was speaking earlier,
of the parable of where Jesus gave And some worked
the whole heat of the day, and some worked the
last hour of the day, some worked from the middle
(31:23):
of the day. And those who worked for all the
hours of the day they didn't like for the others
who came later, getting the same thing they got. I'm
letting you know that's not God's way, that is not
his way. Jesus on the cross said to the thief
(31:46):
on the cross, this day, this day, he didn't have
to live his whole life repentant. That would have been
a good thing. However, a lamb for a house and
make sure your neighbor for whatever reason, if he was
a fool and didn't want to acknowledge God. Until now
(32:11):
you make away. You make away. Hello, and a lot
of you are fasting as I leaned in. You're going
to go to Isaiah fifty eight and look at the
fasting chapter, because in the fasting chapter you find that
there's some promises that if you fast a certain way,
God will make it so that you make a way
(32:34):
for people, and He makes ways for you so that
your darkest day is like the noonday sun. So understand
God's way. Oh it's not to hold you accountable or
anybody else accountable for every wrong they've done. When God's
holding you accountable, it's because you have rejected and rejected,
(32:58):
and you're at your last And the one that God
said it was the worst manassa. I mean, pardon me,
not Manassa. Certainly I don't want to go there. Your
lamb shall be without blemish. God lets you know how
he wants it done. He who has an ear. You
(33:19):
don't just take the worst lamb because it's going to
be given away anyway. No, David understood this. He knew
to give the best, give the best, give the best.
Understand that principle of God. Some of us don't like
that about tithing the first tenth. And when God talks
(33:40):
about tithing, especially when the Malachi tithe and offering, he's
not separating them. However, God's then you know it all
belongs to me. However, what I'm doing is allowing you
the honor of the all by giving me the first
and the best. And by the way, that's what priesthood
(34:02):
comes from. Oh and even that I want to explain,
but I want to get to the other aspects of
the first Comedian in the Last Supper, and he says,
your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the
first year, not just the female, a male and of
(34:25):
the first year. God is specific, ye shall take it
out from the sheep or from the goats. And notice,
don't kill him among all the others. Don't scare the
rest of them. And they shall take of the blood
and strike it on the two side. Popes both don't
(34:48):
have do something when God says how it can cost
you more than what you know, more than you want
to know. And the upper door posts of the houses,
(35:10):
the houses, wherein shall ye eat Now. Things are danger, danger, danger, danger,
and yet you're supposed to sit down and eat. Now.
This is way before the twenty third song. Yeah We're
God will prepare a table for you in the presence
of your enemies, people of excellence. You go through stuff
(35:33):
and everything's shaken and it's shook up, and God will
have you sit down and eat, and it makes no sense.
That's why I like to always remind us of in
Philippians four, how be anxious for nothing? I think it's
either around verse six, seven and eight, or it might
be seven eight to nine. Be anxious for nothing. Don't
(35:57):
be upset and anxious about anything, but with prayer and
supplication and with thanksgiving, with thanksgiving, not owe me oh
my own, Oh, with thanksgiving. That's why I remind you
of the psalmon O seven. Oh that men would give
thanks unto the Lord. That's Yahweh, the covenant keeper, the
covenant ratifire. You know Jesus, the one who said I'll
(36:21):
never leave you nor forsake you, even to the end
of the earth. Yeah, Yahweh. He said, Oh, that men
would give thanks unto Yahweh and praise the Lord and
looking up in case he said, give thanks unto God Elohim. Seven.
And he said, and praise the Lord for his wonderful
(36:42):
works to the children of men. Yeah, God's speaking in
the mountain and it's shaken and scaring the living daylights
out of the people. And then there's fire and people
don't know what to do, where to run because it's
up on the mountain and it is nowhere to run. Yeah,
And at the same time he says, hear my voice,
(37:06):
hear my voice. I learned about me. I need to
be still. Anyway, he says, you're gonna eat, and I
also want to. I want to deal with it, but
I don't want to ignore it. You shall take it
(37:28):
out from the sheep or from the goats. Now, later,
much later in scripture, we find why God made that provision.
You're not supposed to not do what God said, just because,
like in this case, prejudice could make it so that
there's no sheep could have, could have, would have, should have,
(37:49):
could have. No, you don't anyway, I was gonna say,
you want to obey God, And if the things that
he said to do it with aren't there, if the
sheep aren't available, and all there are goats, then you
do it, that's going to give us some understanding of
(38:12):
for God's soul loved the world that he gave is
only begotten son, because he's the one that teaches us
about separating the sheep from the goats. And it was
a lamb's sling from the foundation of the earth, not
a goat. However, if all that you have available is goat,
or there's no first year, you still do it the
(38:37):
way God said it. And Royal Priesthood. Priesthood understands the
significance of the blood on the doorposts, both sides and
over top a lamb for a house, and if it
needs to be a goat, it's the blood that matters.
(39:00):
And they shall take up the blood and strike it.
Now I read that, I'll read it again and strike
it on the two side posts, both sides, and on
the upper posts of the house wherein they shall eat.
Don't be so busy packing, don't be so busy running,
don't be so busy preparing. It's not that you're not
(39:22):
doing those things. However, the other thing he said to
do is eat, And you're also going to find that
later on you're gonna wish you had eaten. If you didn't.
You're gonna find out that you needed that substance, that sustinance.
(39:42):
See God speaks for more aspects than what we're even thinking.
And he says, eat not of it raw. And here again,
medical science can tell you a whole bunch of reasons
not to do that. But eat not of it raw
or sodden at all. With water, he said, not boiled,
don't boil it. I know some people who don't know
(40:05):
how to cook it. All they know is to boil.
As a matter of fact, it's recently I did that.
I didn't have all that I needed and didn't have this,
didn't have that, and I thought, okay, then just drop
it in some water and boil it. Here God said, ah,
don't do that for this thing. For what I'm calling
you to do, it's not don't ever cook that way.
(40:26):
He says, this, this is going to be the sacrifice
that's going to redeem you in the face of your enemies. Okay,
for I will pass through the land of Egypt this night,
(40:47):
this night. That's why you're not waiting to do it
another time when it's convenient for you. You want to obey
God in the midst of everything, and you want to
stop when he says stop, and you want to do
when he says do it. There's an expression in my
generations on stop on a dime. Yeah, you want to
do what he said. Look at his split You want
(41:08):
to do what he's sit in a blink. You want
to do what he said in the here and now,
and I will smite all the first born in the
land of Egypt. And this kind of makes you understand
when Moses he's had that burning bush experience, God told
him to go, and yet when he sent Jippor away
his wife when she said, you're a bloody husband to me,
(41:31):
he goes to the end to do what God said.
Are you on the way to do what God said?
Like Abram, on your way to do what God said,
But you're not doing it the way God said. I'm
letting you know here here again, it's a situation. This
first passover here again is a situation to do it
the way God said, Abram. God told him leave your
father's house, and he left with his father and his
(41:54):
father's house. And you'll find that as you read the scripture,
God didn't talk to him about that thing again even
though he went until after his father died and lots gone,
and it'll feel like God left you. Except for that,
you know that you're feeling. You know that you're sensing,
and that's whether or not you recognize that you didn't
(42:16):
do it like he said. So I'm letting you know.
We're in times where God is correcting error. And usually
when we we religious spoke when we get so far
out of error, we don't know how far out we are.
We think we followed God. And Jesus is the one
who spoke to leadership, not babes when he said your
(42:38):
doctrine makes a word of God of no effect. Your doctrines.
He was speaking to leaders. That's why I'm letting us know,
because we always think when you got it wrong and
when you misunderstand it's babes. I heard someone saying that
they're this this ideology and that ideology, and I remember
(43:00):
God's word. In God's Word New Testament, he says, comparing
yourselves by themselves is not wise, even when it's the
best doctrine, when you think it's the best doctrine, or
when you think it's the worst doctrine. We need to
understand them and discern them and let God judge and
(43:26):
let God lead us. God is the one choose e
this date whom you will serve. However, God gave choice, okay,
And with it he gives information. And you want to
pay attention to the information he gives, not just what
everybody else in your tribe thinks. Oh, okay, And ye
(43:52):
shall let nothing of it remain until the morning. And
that which remaineth of it until the morning, ye shall
burn with fire. This is why Jesus had to die
on the cross. When he had to die on the cross,
not just to fulfill not a bone of him was broken.
Ye have to fulfill that. There were traditions. There were traditions,
(44:18):
and he not only did he need to go when
he went, he needed to die when he died for
so many cultural reasons and political reasons and word of God,
eternal purpose of God reasons. And he says, for I
will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and
(44:38):
I will smite all the first born of the land
of Egypt, both man and beast, and against all the
gods of Egypt. I will execute judgment. I am the Lord.
And by the way the word am is there I
Yahweh covenant keeper, covenant ratifire. Now, this can scare the
(45:02):
living daylights out of you if you'll be afraid, because
all this stuff is all going on at the same time.
People of excellence, All of this stuff goes on at
the same time, and you don't know whether look it,
they're dying over here and they're not dying here. And
did I get the blood posts right? And did I who?
All of that is going on? And you want it
all not just right, but in righteousness. And if you
(45:24):
move in righteousness, if you move in love. I like
to tell people, you move in love, you'll get it right.
That's a saying that I made from the understanding of
the first two commandments. Love the Lord with your Lord,
your God, with all your heart and soul, with all
your mind and strength. If you move in love, you'll
get it right. And that's not just right, that's in righteousness.
(45:47):
If you move in God, and you don't know this
scripture about well, you can use a gold if you
don't have a lamb. You won't not use the goat
just because you don't have a lamb. You won't not
obey I was just talking anyway, okay. And the blood
shall be to you my people. The blood shall be
(46:13):
to you for a token upon the houses, the houses
where ye are. And when I see the blood, I
will pass over. See this is passover. I will pass
over you. And the plague shall not be upon you
(46:38):
to destroy you. Now notice he said it won't be
upon you to destroy you. And I didn't finish telling
you in case you hadn't read it. When Moses went
to the end, he's on his way. He's on his
way to do what God told him to do at
the burning bush. The only thing is he married into
(46:59):
a family her His father in law was a priest,
but of some other God, and they had their practices,
and circumcision wasn't one of them. And circumcision is a
covenant of God, of Yahweh. And how are you going
to go? And you're not even under the covenant yourself?
(47:24):
And the scripture says God sought to kill him in
the end, and as you read on you realize it
was the son and Jiporis she understood, and she circumcised
her son herself. I'm a mom. My first born is
a son. I can't imagine doing such a thing except
for that to save his life. Yes I would. Oh God,
(47:47):
I've been through such kind of things for my son
as a baby. And I get it. I get it
when I read that, and it so that she do
anything for her son. But she despised what she had
to do. Bloody, a bloody husband, you are to me,
(48:12):
she said, And they both realized the necessity of it.
And they also realized by the way, the necessity of
moving in love. When you move in love, you get
it right, you move in righteousness. And at that time
Moses sent her away. We find that later in scripture
that Moses is the one who sent her away, divorced
(48:36):
her and she went home to Papa. And later we
find after they're out of Egypt, and Moses was able
to do all this. And I'm giving you that so
that we understand that your household breaks up. We have
the church Yanity has their tradition to get your household
(48:57):
in order first before you can continue to leave. There
wasn't time to do it different. This is the time
of God's promise to Abram and to Abraham, not two
different people. This is God's timing, and He's bringing all
of this. And I'm gonna run through the rest because
(49:21):
I took so much time to bring you the understanding.
I want you to understand that the Lamb had to
be a certain way. And as you read through this,
you'll find that I want to read, fifteen seven days
shall you eat leven bread unleavened? Even the first day,
(49:44):
ye shall put away leven out of your houses. For
whosoever eat of the leaven bread from the first day
onto the seventh day, that soul shall be cut off
from Israel. You see, we have things that are habits
and things that we think are okay, and we don't
know God's word about it. He's the one that told him,
(50:05):
don't do this, leven, and that is to remember to
remember that you had to do this in flight, and
you had to obey with all of this going on.
Those are some of the reasons read it all, read
it all, and read it several times. Anyway, I want
you to understand that when we later have the cracker,
(50:27):
or we know that it's on eleven, we've already had
all of this, and we have the scripture that tells
us a little eleven leven's the whole lump. A little
wrong makes it all wrong. It'll cause it to rise
up in other places that you didn't expect. That you
didn't know that, you didn't understand that, you weren't looking
(50:48):
for it because you're only looking at what you did.
You did it right. So because it took so long.
With that, I want you to understand when we take communion,
understand what God was giving us. To understand several things
O Heaven, because you're going to do some things on
(51:09):
the run. You're going to do some things under more
pressure than what even makes sense in the earth, than
what makes sense in any kind of way. But the
peace of God. Remember, Philippians, be anxious for nothing but
with prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your request be
made known under God. And the peace of God, which
(51:32):
passes understanding, will keep your heart and mind. And I
think it says imperfect peace, and always remind you your understanding,
that's your misunderstanding, you're right understanding, You're right wrong understanding,
your partial understanding. God's word is God's word. Now I
want to move on from this because I want to
show you in the first Communion it's I want to
(51:59):
say General fourteen and if i'm Genesis fourteen, the first
Communion Elchizdic, I want you to understand that Abram had
raised his household, not trying to be a soldier. As Abram,
he was treated as a king in the earth. He
(52:19):
didn't have the title, but when you look at all
the contracts and the sales that he did, culturally, everything
was done the way a king did the way today
would say a CEO, I want you to see these things.
And when God made him Abraham, he was already had
this relationship. Remember, people of excellence, you came here annoyed
(52:44):
and appointed and equipped for who God made you and
what God made you. You're anoyed in a sense that
you attract who God means for you to minister to
who God gave you word and words for prophesy and
prophetic for teaching and understanding. For that's who you are
(53:05):
trapped and that who has ears to hear. Even when
they don't like it, they don't like where you came from.
I remember one pastor didn't like it and wanted to
disown me because he found out that I would preach
at the Unitarian church. I'm not Unitarian. I'm looking to
be a Unitarian, but when they invite me, I let
him know that, Hey, you don't want to recognize Jesus,
(53:28):
I'm gonna let you know he's the one who was
died on the cross for your sins born of a virgin.
You don't want to believe that stuff. I'm going to
preach that stuff. If you're inviting me to preach, that's
what I'm going to preach to you. And they would
invite me anyway because they wanted the miracles that God
would do through me. However, one renowned preacher God called
(53:50):
him to the city and called him to do things
in the city, the same city I was in. He
renounced me when he found out that she's up there
preaching in those Unitarian churches. Yeah, they invited me. I'm
gonna give you the word. I'm gonna give you the word,
and I'm not just gonna give you the part of
(54:12):
the word you accept. I'm going to give you the
word that God gave on the thing that He gave
me to give you alway, So whether somebody likes it
or rather they don't like it, you give them the word.
And for me, that's very specific because God called me
from the Book of Ezekiel, and he said, tell them,
rather they hear or rather they forbear, whether they want
(54:35):
to hear it, whether they don't want to hear it.
You tell them, and like Ezekiel, God says, I hold
you responsible because if they die because they didn't they
didn't get to hear it and obey. Now, if they
got to hear it from you and they didn't obey
and died, their blood is not on your hands. But
if you didn't tell them that they could convert and
(54:55):
change and they die, the blood is on your hands.
So I'm letting you know you're anointed, unappointed, and equipped.
You draw who got it? You anointed you four and two.
You get their attention even when they don't like it,
and you get their attention when they love it. And
(55:20):
I want you to know, Melchizedic, hi priest of the
Most High, he gave a new revelation of God. You
should have that in your communion, a revelation that Abram
had not had before. And one of the things things
God taught me about when you're teaching things new to children,
(55:42):
when you're teaching people things new, they can repeat it
back to you. And the name that Melchizedic gave Abram
repeated that thing back. Now it's his. It's not just
what the high priest said to him. It's his, and
he was able to move in that. Understand, when you
(56:03):
have something, when you have ears to hear, you can
say it. Remember, say to this mountain, be thou removed,
and it shall obey you. You say things, it's yours. Okay. Now,
in the Last Supper, I've wanted to go through each
of the gospels with you, but right now, because we
(56:24):
only have a two minutes left, I want to remind
you where Jesus said to them that I'm not going
to eat this with you again untill I eat it
new with you new in the kingdom. I think he's
referring to the First Communion, because that is where five
kings mighty in the earth came and took Lot and
(56:48):
his household, Solomon Gamarn and some other kings too. However,
Abram was already prepared the way that God had made
him to be. Of his household. He had people who
were like soldiers, and they went and they rescued Lot,
they rescued everybody that was taken, and they sang song.
(57:12):
And I think in that Last Supper where Jesus said
I won't drink this with you till new in the Kingdom,
I think he's referring to when you didn't lose any. Remember,
Jesus said, I haven't lost any that you gave me.
I think he's referring to that where Abram didn't lose any,
(57:32):
not even a lot who chose to go to Sodom
and Gamara, and not even all the Sodom and Gamara.
He brought back everything, and Melchizedek, the high priest, blessed him,
and he gave him the bread, that unloving bread, and
(57:56):
the wine, the representation of the blood, and the scripture
lets us know that all of this, along with tides
and offerings, was in the loins of Abraham, so that
all the generations we're living in times when you do
this and you take your communion, all three of these
(58:19):
aspects have to do with it, and it's changing and
correcting the error of the times. In Jesus' name, do it.
He is the amen
Will God bless you. God, bless you, God, bless you.
Welcome to the hour of deliverance. Now here we go. Me,
I'm Reverend doctor K. E. Holmes. You more importantly, you
are a person of excellence. Now. That is the truth
of God, not just the truth coming from some lady
(00:27):
or some reverend or some doctor or some theologian. That
is the absolute truth of God, who made man. And
that's true. Whether you believe in God or don't believe
in God, that is true. Whether you've given yourself to
Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior, that is true. And
I want you to know it. And I also want
(00:49):
you to know that tuning in here, whether you tuned
in live, whether you tuned in some other time, even
if you had tuned in some other century, if Jesus
doesn't come, you tuned in because you are a person
of excellence. You are a person of excellence. And the
(01:13):
thing about that is that you came here that way. Yeah.
God anointed and appointed and equipped you that way from
the lamb slain from the foundation of the earth. And
I do want to go to that scripture, but I'm
letting you know if you know how to look up scripture.
Look that one up. There are things that God did
in the lamb of God who was slain from the
(01:35):
foundation of the earth. And one of those things is
He anointed and appointed you and equipped you for what
you are ordained for. Now, most especially people of excellence,
are anointed, appointed, equipped, and ordained from that aspect. Now,
(01:55):
that doesn't mean that's the only aspect I know we
of Churchianity. I said that on purpose. I didn't say Christianity.
I said Churchianity. Christians who make doctrines out of right things,
but they become doctrines that mean other things. My term
for it, not God's. My term for it is Churchianity
(02:19):
now in that we tend to learn things that are true,
and then we disallow anything else that could also be true.
For example, I heard a couple of pastors yesterday talking
(02:40):
about God speaking in a whisper and saying it in
a way of that's the preferable way, and that comes
from and most of us can't even we can know
how to look up the scripture. We don't even know
where we're saying it from. That God spoke with a
still small voice and doctrinally for at least a few
(03:03):
hundred years, we've made that the way to prefer to
hear God. God didn't make it that way in that situation.
He did, but that was with Elijah, who was used
to God moving mountains, speaking loud, I mean fired down.
(03:26):
If you remember the showdown. Elijah was used to God
being a big, blast, show out champion kind of God.
And in that particular situation, and I might want to
look it up. I'm gonna say this out loud because
I wanted to go to this scripture for what we're
(03:47):
going to deal with. I wanted to go to the
Exodus scripture of the first Passover Exodus. I'm looking at
Exodus twelve eleven. I'm saying that out loud because I
want to go to still small Voice, and that's from
(04:16):
First Kings nineteen twelve. I'll read the verse, and after
the earthquake a fire, but the Lord was not in
the fire, and after the fire a still small voice.
Now that's First King's nineteen thirteen. I already let you know,
I'm a theologian, okay, And as a theologian, I know
(04:39):
to look at things like after that means something went before.
So you want to know what went before, and you
want the principles of what went before. You want the
context of what went before. It's kind of like if
you have a map to go to broad Street, but
(05:00):
you're on South Street, you need to know what comes before. Yesterday,
I haven't ridden a bus in decades, and yesterday I
was looking for a bus and one bus came and
it was had the right number, but it said it
was bound here, and I'm like, well, that's that's not correct,
(05:25):
but it's what came before. Well then a couple more
buses came, but wrong number but right direction. And it's
like that in God's word, you want to know when
he says before and after that, depending on what he's
(05:45):
revealing to you or what you're searching out, those are
things you want to pay attention to, but we tend
not to. So the example that I wanted to give
with this is that when you look up at with Elijah,
and he was one of the most profound prophets for
demonstration of things and demonstration of God in magnificent ways,
(06:11):
not just more for everybody around than personal. Except for that,
it makes you think he had to have a very
close personal relationship. And I don't think that's a wrong assumption.
(06:32):
The thing of it is when you look at Elijah.
He headed up the School of Profits, and a whole
lot of things went on with the School of Profits.
So they were used to God moving in profound and
loud ways. And I know me, I don't want to.
(06:55):
I want to, but I shouldn't. Here I am at
first King's nineteen one and it begins with ann. So
just the thing I just now told you that something
came before it, and they have told Jezebel all that
Elijah had done. So when you go back back and
look at all that Elijah had done, you're going to
find that God spoke loud, God spoke magnificently. And you're
(07:18):
also going to find Elijah had personality. He'd make fun
of you if he felt like it. Don't think a
prophet is so religiously bound, because Elijah made fun He
made fun of folk, and he made fun of their
beliefs that were ridiculous, and he would let you know
(07:41):
it was ridiculous. So what I'm showing you is and
I want you to go look it up. But God,
Elijah was used to God dealing loud, strong, and like
it said the things that he knew to look for
(08:04):
the things that he knew that God has no problem
like with Moses. When God went to reveal himself to Moses,
it was a bush that wouldn't burn. It was fire.
And then when he went to reveal himself after they
left out of Egypt, he's talking to the people and
(08:24):
he's making this loud, loud, loud noise. And I hope
most of you haven't had to experience what it sounds
like an earthquake on the top of a mountain or
the mountain's shaking, because it's frightening, even when you know
what it is, it's frightening. However, that's what God did.
(08:45):
And then he made lightning and fire. That's what he did. God.
I'm talking about God. And then he spoke. And I'm
saying this because in my lifetime, actually few decades ago,
a few a generation ago, Uh, it was common in
(09:05):
different denominations, conservative type denominations to not want the the
choir or the worship team to get too excited and
go two months because it's the word that's most important
and and we want we want to get to the word.
And it would always stand out to me, Yeah we do, yes,
(09:27):
we do. We want to hear God's word. However, the
thing that I just shared with you, when God spoke
to the children of Israel, Uh, he made a whole
lot of noise on the mountain. He made a whole
lot of fire on the mountain, He made a whole
lot of lightning on the fountain, on the on the
mountain before he spoke. And then when he spoke, the
(09:49):
people needed to get away so that they could hear.
So back to this thing of Uh, what was it now?
The still small voice that all the places that He
knew to look right now? We are living in times
(10:10):
that are like that. I'm saying, the places that you've
gotten used to looking for God to move, the ways
that you've gotten used to God moving. And here some
of you are going to come up with, there's no
new thing under the sun. Well, guess what, there's a
(10:34):
whole lot that's new to you. It's not new under
the sun. However, God will bring something to you in
a way that's different than what you're used to. And
even that for some of you that He are rhyming.
I learned about me that when I'm rhyming, I'm in
prophetic mode. That was something God taught me I knew
(10:56):
that I was a poet. I was a poet before
I came to know the Lord, and I thought poetry
was for certain things. And after I came to know
the Lord, I learned the thing that I just shared
with you, that when God's annointed appointed and equipped you
for certain things, and especially in excellence. He did that
(11:19):
in the Lamb slain from the foundation of the earth.
So I was award winning poet before I ever came
to know the Lord, and then a few generations of
almost every decade after, I was award winning poet again.
And one of the things about people of excellence is
that you don't see yourself that way. People of excellence,
(11:44):
you're usually dealing with stuff, and I'll tell you now
that this one will resonate with you. You deal with
stuff that most people don't have to. You deal with
stuff that's bigger and more ridiculous, or more profound or
more dangerous than what most people have to. For example,
(12:07):
right now, I'm dealing with several people who have lost
their home, and to every single one of them, it
is more devastating than what they know to do with. However,
some lost their home due to fire, and even in
(12:31):
that right now, I'm thinking of one fire in a
city where the fire firemen came, but they lost everything
in their home, their home burned up, and another forest
fire in a whole other I'm in Pennsylvania right now,
and this was not in Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Now, while each one experienced losing everything, losing their home,
the experience is not the same.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
As when you lose your home because of bills or
because of all the different things, the experience of it
is different. And I'm letting you know, people of excellence,
you go through things that are bigger, harder, stronger, and
lasts longer than most people, and you're so busy going
(13:26):
through it that you don't recognize and you don't see
yourself that way. One of the examples that I have
given recently, and I think I'm going to be giving
it more often because God keeps revealing to me that
the times and the cycle of time that we are
in is like this, and that is someone who's saven
(13:47):
that I let you know that there's different situations and
they're not babes going through it. They're not just babes.
Babes are going through it, but it's not just babes.
The strong, the Mighty, the men of valor, the when
of the people of excellence are going through it, you're
not cry babies. And each of those set of things
ends with they cried to the Lord because it's too
(14:11):
strong and too long. And immediately God says, I delivered them.
That's something that you want to know in your relationship
with God and in your not in relationship with God.
So here, in this situation of the still small voice God,
(14:34):
all the ways that elign is used to God moving
and doing and it wasn't that, and it wasn't that,
and it wasn't that. If you're used to goosebumps and
you know God spoke and you're waiting for the goosebumps,
(14:56):
just like that verse, still small Voice, Oh, it wasn't
in the mountain, it wasn't in the goosebumps, wasn't in
the fire, it wasn't in the Oh my head is
spinning or oh my gut felt that. It's into something
that is different for you. However, let's not make that
(15:22):
a doctrine. And again, in Churchianity right now in the
changing of times, what God is doing is correcting these things,
and sometimes some of those ways is just bringing us
out of it, because most of us don't even know
that we're in it when we're in it. Usually, when
(15:45):
God's people get into doctrinal things that are totally wrong,
we are thinking we're totally right and have gone into
idolatry with it and don't realize it. None of us
mean to go into I don't. We're not doing that
on purpose. And when I say none of us, the
scripture shows you some that that's what they meant to do.
(16:07):
They meant to go worship this God and that God.
Because I may as well try something. However, if my people,
you know the scripture, are called that are called by
my name, see his name. His name was all the
(16:28):
power in his name. Before we even knew the scriptures
about his name. His name was that before he told
us that. Okay, so I want to move on from
the Elijah and I want to bring something about We're
in a time where communion is extremely important. However, doctrinally
(16:56):
we have gotten used to taking communion a certain way,
and to the point that we almost don't recognize that
the four Gospels, when it gives the Last Supper, give
a different aspect. And I like to park on. They
(17:19):
sang a hymn went out, and yeah, I want to
stop and tell you why. However, I want to get
onto when we are in times that are for the
changing and the correction of error. Whether it's error we
(17:41):
know or error we don't know, it's still error, an
error that becomes idolatry to continue in. We want to
pay attention. Though it's in the Book of Revelation. It's
not new. He who has an ear, let him hear.
(18:06):
Having an ear means hearing, and it means hearing righteousness.
It means hearing truth. And that's even before you get
to the Gospel of John that tells you that He
is truth, that Jesus is. Jesus didn't become Messiah just
(18:26):
because we learned that in the Gospels. The good news
was good even before. Think about this, when news is
being printed or a newspaper or magazine, or when news
is being gotten together and gathered to go out on
a broadcast, that news was the news before it ever
(18:51):
got out to you. They're go rhyming again, that news
was the news before it got to you. Realize that
about God's way, the things that he reveals to us,
he was that and that was that beforehand and most
of the time. Just now hearing myself say that was
(19:11):
that reminds me of Peter at Pentecost, the Pentecost that
we like to remember because we forget the other ones.
In Acts two, when he says, this is that that
was spoken by the prophet Joel. You go to the
prophet Joel, and you wouldn't have gotten that revelation from that.
(19:34):
You wouldn't have known that this is that except God
reveal it to you. And then I want to remind
us that when you know what Peter was like, Peter
could get the revelation of God and he could also
get some other idea. God taught me this about me,
that I have ideas and ideals that I just think
(19:57):
are so correct. And then he let me know. I
shared with you my poetry book, the Chamber Poems. Yeah,
I thought one way to forgive is just forget about it.
And I thought that I was doing that because in
God's word he lets us know that he doesn't remember
(20:21):
our sins against us, And it doesn't mean he doesn't
know what they are. He doesn't know what they were.
It's telling us that he's not holding it against us.
So some of the things that I want to bring
to bear in the communion, things that we tend not
to make the connection what I like to call connect
(20:44):
the dots. And that's because I used to be an artist.
I shouldn't say it used to be because God made
me an artist. And just because I haven't taken to art.
I got myself through college doing art. I didn't know
I was that good. And before the paint would drive
people wanted to buy the painting and they would pay more,
(21:08):
just a bit more than what my tuition was. When
I didn't know where it was coming from. That made
me no key painting. I didn't think I was an artist.
People of excellence, you rarely see the nose on your face.
You really rarely recognize until looking back after the fact.
Like God told Moses, you're gonna know when you're out
(21:30):
here on this mountain, you and the people of Israel,
you're gonna know when you're out here on this mountain
worshiping that I said this to you. And the way
we are. We want to know God said what he
said before we even get moving, kind of like when
we when we take a look on the map, we
want to know here's where we started and here's where
(21:50):
we're going. And so we want to know from from
from the get go, from the start, that this is
how to get there, and this is the way. And
if you're like me, I put in there the easiest way.
I put in the no tolls way or or the
tolls way or the quickest way or whatever. We do
that without knowing the obstacles in between. God knows. So
(22:18):
here we go the first Passover. If you recall God,
let them know that they're going to leave Egypt. Now,
this is after they've been enslaved. I want to go
back to let's see if I can get back to Yeah,
(22:40):
this was after they had I'm going to look in
Exodus twelve again and the Lord spacer Here we go,
And so there's a whole lot, a whole lot of
context that went before. And the Lord's spaken to Moses
and Aaron. And that's another thing of context that you
(23:01):
want to look up in the land of Egypt. See
when you're in your situation, that's captivity that's prejudiced against you.
That doesn't even make good sense. If you recall that
Egyptians wouldn't even sit, you couldn't even have dinner with
those sheep herders. This month shall be unto you, the
(23:28):
beginning of months, the beginning of a cycle of times,
the beginning of a tradition, and also the beginning of
several of those things. So you want to look at that.
It shall be the first month of the year unto you.
Now we count ours. We don't recognize it. Most of
us we count ours. According to the Roman calendar, that
(23:51):
was a trick by an extremely intelligent man who had
given his life to the Lord. Wanted to make sure
it didn't cost him is throng, and he found the way.
So this calendar, I don't want to concentrate on that
(24:12):
right now. I want us to understand about the bread,
because I'm talking about communion, the bread and the wine.
But one of the first things about the bread, and
I'm going to say it now so that if I
don't look it up for you and tell you where
it is. The scripture tells us a little leaven. Leaven's
the whole lump. And God is the one who said
(24:39):
no leaven, no leaven. And when you realize it, it
wasn't just that no leaven. The leaven was in there.
It's that not giving it time to rise, because you
need to be on the move before it has time
to rise. I used to bake bread every day raising
my kids. Baked three he loves every single day from
(25:02):
scratch and gave it the time to rise, and that
was before they got up in the morning. I was
a person who hated the sound of alarm clock and
made me want to put my fist through one, and
not that I would. Well, before I was saved, I
knew that I would, and that the sound of the
alarm made me feel that way. I had to find
(25:23):
another way, and I learned that the smells of cooking
makes it wakes you up, and it wakes the other
people up who need to wake up in the house,
and it wakes you up with happiness and joyfulness and
expectation rather than okay, so speaky twelve three Exodus twelve three,
(25:47):
speak unto all the congregation of Israel, and here again,
how does that happen? How do you speak to the
whole congregation? God? Let you know it was over a
million people that came out, come on saying here again,
saying I'm always sharing with you that God taught us
in creating the earth. God said, God said, God said,
(26:10):
and then the Faith chapter lets us know through faith
we understand that the worlds were framed by the word
of God. And that's not all it says. I'm just
giving you these pieces of nuggets to know that God
Jesus said, I only do what I see the Father do.
I only say what I heard the Father say. I'm
(26:33):
sharing with you, trying to connect the dots with you
that in Genesis one, God's teaching us. He's not just
demonstrating himself, yes he is. However, he's showing us how
to be like him, the aspects in which we are
made in his image and made like him, and that
we can do the things that he did. And so
(26:56):
he taught us saying so now when he's saying speak
ye okay. Now they're the called out leaders. You do
the speaking, not what everyone's saying to one another. Because
when we get to I think it's Ephesians, you find
that you want to minister grace to those that hear you. However,
(27:24):
speak ye, the heads, the leaders and the priesthood. And
now I want to remind you we are now a
royal priesthood, and we need to have learned what priesthood
is about. We don't think so in Churchianity. I'm letting
you know through God's word, he gave these examples so
that we understand the different aspects and things of priesthood,
(27:45):
and the different aspect of things of royalty, and the
different aspects of men of valor, leadership, and so on
and so forth. Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel,
so that they heard it from you, and not just
from each other, and not the chatter that can go
(28:06):
through each other, because they're gonna hear the other stuff.
But they needed to have heard it from you. In
the tenth month, it pardoned me. In the tenth day
of this month, they shall take up them every man
a lamb according to the house of their fathers, a
(28:27):
lamb for a house. Our family, the Holmes family, wrote
a song. I think I wrote it. But it's a
lamb for a house. It's a lamb for a house
with the blood on the door post. It's a lamb
for a house. It's a lamb for a house. It's
(28:50):
a lamb for a house with the blood on the
door post. It's a lamb for a house. Now, now
we know that Jesus was the lamb. But I'm showing
you that God was showing that thing way back there
with the blood on the doorpost and in the apostle
(29:12):
Paul he in Silas locked up in jail. Yeah, you
get to find out when they gave praise and and
and the chains were loosed. Uh huh, okay, I want
to go there. But let's let's it's a lamb for
a house. We get the revelation of it owing the gospels.
(29:34):
But the thing that was so, it was so way
back then, and God only gave it in part a
lamb for a house. And then, oh my, he gave
the very thing that the Egyptians were prejudiced against. These lambs.
They stink and it makes the people stink that raise them,
(29:57):
couldn't stand them. And yet it's what God said do.
And another thing about this, and if the household be
too little for the lamb, everybody doesn't have the same wealth,
everybody doesn't have the same ability. So though God gave
the command, here's what we're supposed to do, so that
(30:17):
everybody can do God's command. Here's what we are supposed
to do. And we learned that in communion later to
wait from one another. That's not new here. It is
let him and his neighbor next to his house. Take
it according to the number of the souls every man
(30:40):
according to his eating. Shall you make your count for
the lamb. You don't leave your neighbor out just because
you know what God told you. If you know your
neighbor doesn't have a love, or can't or whatever it is,
help him obey God's word, help him come into the blessing,
help him come into the promise. And that's whether or
(31:02):
not you see it that way. Me I see it
that way. You might not see it that way. You
might be one of those like I was speaking earlier,
of the parable of where Jesus gave And some worked
the whole heat of the day, and some worked the
last hour of the day, some worked from the middle
(31:23):
of the day. And those who worked for all the
hours of the day they didn't like for the others
who came later, getting the same thing they got. I'm
letting you know that's not God's way, that is not
his way. Jesus on the cross said to the thief
(31:46):
on the cross, this day, this day, he didn't have
to live his whole life repentant. That would have been
a good thing. However, a lamb for a house and
make sure your neighbor for whatever reason, if he was
a fool and didn't want to acknowledge God. Until now
(32:11):
you make away. You make away. Hello, and a lot
of you are fasting as I leaned in. You're going
to go to Isaiah fifty eight and look at the
fasting chapter, because in the fasting chapter you find that
there's some promises that if you fast a certain way,
God will make it so that you make a way
(32:34):
for people, and He makes ways for you so that
your darkest day is like the noonday sun. So understand
God's way. Oh it's not to hold you accountable or
anybody else accountable for every wrong they've done. When God's
holding you accountable, it's because you have rejected and rejected,
(32:58):
and you're at your last And the one that God
said it was the worst manassa. I mean, pardon me,
not Manassa. Certainly I don't want to go there. Your
lamb shall be without blemish. God lets you know how
he wants it done. He who has an ear. You
(33:19):
don't just take the worst lamb because it's going to
be given away anyway. No, David understood this. He knew
to give the best, give the best, give the best.
Understand that principle of God. Some of us don't like
that about tithing the first tenth. And when God talks
(33:40):
about tithing, especially when the Malachi tithe and offering, he's
not separating them. However, God's then you know it all
belongs to me. However, what I'm doing is allowing you
the honor of the all by giving me the first
and the best. And by the way, that's what priesthood
(34:02):
comes from. Oh and even that I want to explain,
but I want to get to the other aspects of
the first Comedian in the Last Supper, and he says,
your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the
first year, not just the female, a male and of
(34:25):
the first year. God is specific, ye shall take it
out from the sheep or from the goats. And notice,
don't kill him among all the others. Don't scare the
rest of them. And they shall take of the blood
and strike it on the two side. Popes both don't
(34:48):
have do something when God says how it can cost
you more than what you know, more than you want
to know. And the upper door posts of the houses,
(35:10):
the houses, wherein shall ye eat Now. Things are danger, danger, danger, danger,
and yet you're supposed to sit down and eat. Now.
This is way before the twenty third song. Yeah We're
God will prepare a table for you in the presence
of your enemies, people of excellence. You go through stuff
(35:33):
and everything's shaken and it's shook up, and God will
have you sit down and eat, and it makes no sense.
That's why I like to always remind us of in
Philippians four, how be anxious for nothing? I think it's
either around verse six, seven and eight, or it might
be seven eight to nine. Be anxious for nothing. Don't
(35:57):
be upset and anxious about anything, but with prayer and
supplication and with thanksgiving, with thanksgiving, not owe me oh
my own, Oh, with thanksgiving. That's why I remind you
of the psalmon O seven. Oh that men would give
thanks unto the Lord. That's Yahweh, the covenant keeper, the
covenant ratifire. You know Jesus, the one who said I'll
(36:21):
never leave you nor forsake you, even to the end
of the earth. Yeah, Yahweh. He said, Oh, that men
would give thanks unto Yahweh and praise the Lord and
looking up in case he said, give thanks unto God Elohim. Seven.
And he said, and praise the Lord for his wonderful
(36:42):
works to the children of men. Yeah, God's speaking in
the mountain and it's shaken and scaring the living daylights
out of the people. And then there's fire and people
don't know what to do, where to run because it's
up on the mountain and it is nowhere to run. Yeah,
And at the same time he says, hear my voice,
(37:06):
hear my voice. I learned about me. I need to
be still. Anyway, he says, you're gonna eat, and I
also want to. I want to deal with it, but
I don't want to ignore it. You shall take it
(37:28):
out from the sheep or from the goats. Now, later,
much later in scripture, we find why God made that provision.
You're not supposed to not do what God said, just because,
like in this case, prejudice could make it so that
there's no sheep could have, could have, would have, should have,
(37:49):
could have. No, you don't anyway, I was gonna say,
you want to obey God, And if the things that
he said to do it with aren't there, if the
sheep aren't available, and all there are goats, then you
do it, that's going to give us some understanding of
(38:12):
for God's soul loved the world that he gave is
only begotten son, because he's the one that teaches us
about separating the sheep from the goats. And it was
a lamb's sling from the foundation of the earth, not
a goat. However, if all that you have available is goat,
or there's no first year, you still do it the
(38:37):
way God said it. And Royal Priesthood. Priesthood understands the
significance of the blood on the doorposts, both sides and
over top a lamb for a house, and if it
needs to be a goat, it's the blood that matters.
(39:00):
And they shall take up the blood and strike it.
Now I read that, I'll read it again and strike
it on the two side posts, both sides, and on
the upper posts of the house wherein they shall eat.
Don't be so busy packing, don't be so busy running,
don't be so busy preparing. It's not that you're not
(39:22):
doing those things. However, the other thing he said to
do is eat, And you're also going to find that
later on you're gonna wish you had eaten. If you didn't.
You're gonna find out that you needed that substance, that sustinance.
(39:42):
See God speaks for more aspects than what we're even thinking.
And he says, eat not of it raw. And here again,
medical science can tell you a whole bunch of reasons
not to do that. But eat not of it raw
or sodden at all. With water, he said, not boiled,
don't boil it. I know some people who don't know
(40:05):
how to cook it. All they know is to boil.
As a matter of fact, it's recently I did that.
I didn't have all that I needed and didn't have this,
didn't have that, and I thought, okay, then just drop
it in some water and boil it. Here God said, ah,
don't do that for this thing. For what I'm calling
you to do, it's not don't ever cook that way.
(40:26):
He says, this, this is going to be the sacrifice
that's going to redeem you in the face of your enemies. Okay,
for I will pass through the land of Egypt this night,
(40:47):
this night. That's why you're not waiting to do it
another time when it's convenient for you. You want to obey
God in the midst of everything, and you want to
stop when he says stop, and you want to do
when he says do it. There's an expression in my
generations on stop on a dime. Yeah, you want to
do what he said. Look at his split You want
(41:08):
to do what he's sit in a blink. You want
to do what he said in the here and now,
and I will smite all the first born in the
land of Egypt. And this kind of makes you understand
when Moses he's had that burning bush experience, God told
him to go, and yet when he sent Jippor away
his wife when she said, you're a bloody husband to me,
(41:31):
he goes to the end to do what God said.
Are you on the way to do what God said?
Like Abram, on your way to do what God said,
But you're not doing it the way God said. I'm
letting you know here here again, it's a situation. This
first passover here again is a situation to do it
the way God said, Abram. God told him leave your
father's house, and he left with his father and his
(41:54):
father's house. And you'll find that as you read the scripture,
God didn't talk to him about that thing again even
though he went until after his father died and lots gone,
and it'll feel like God left you. Except for that,
you know that you're feeling. You know that you're sensing,
and that's whether or not you recognize that you didn't
(42:16):
do it like he said. So I'm letting you know.
We're in times where God is correcting error. And usually
when we we religious spoke when we get so far
out of error, we don't know how far out we are.
We think we followed God. And Jesus is the one
who spoke to leadership, not babes when he said your
(42:38):
doctrine makes a word of God of no effect. Your doctrines.
He was speaking to leaders. That's why I'm letting us know,
because we always think when you got it wrong and
when you misunderstand it's babes. I heard someone saying that
they're this this ideology and that ideology, and I remember
(43:00):
God's word. In God's Word New Testament, he says, comparing
yourselves by themselves is not wise, even when it's the
best doctrine, when you think it's the best doctrine, or
when you think it's the worst doctrine. We need to
understand them and discern them and let God judge and
(43:26):
let God lead us. God is the one choose e
this date whom you will serve. However, God gave choice, okay,
And with it he gives information. And you want to
pay attention to the information he gives, not just what
everybody else in your tribe thinks. Oh, okay, And ye
(43:52):
shall let nothing of it remain until the morning. And
that which remaineth of it until the morning, ye shall
burn with fire. This is why Jesus had to die
on the cross. When he had to die on the cross,
not just to fulfill not a bone of him was broken.
Ye have to fulfill that. There were traditions. There were traditions,
(44:18):
and he not only did he need to go when
he went, he needed to die when he died for
so many cultural reasons and political reasons and word of God,
eternal purpose of God reasons. And he says, for I
will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and
(44:38):
I will smite all the first born of the land
of Egypt, both man and beast, and against all the
gods of Egypt. I will execute judgment. I am the Lord.
And by the way the word am is there I
Yahweh covenant keeper, covenant ratifire. Now, this can scare the
(45:02):
living daylights out of you if you'll be afraid, because
all this stuff is all going on at the same time.
People of excellence, All of this stuff goes on at
the same time, and you don't know whether look it,
they're dying over here and they're not dying here. And
did I get the blood posts right? And did I who?
All of that is going on? And you want it
all not just right, but in righteousness. And if you
(45:24):
move in righteousness, if you move in love. I like
to tell people, you move in love, you'll get it right.
That's a saying that I made from the understanding of
the first two commandments. Love the Lord with your Lord,
your God, with all your heart and soul, with all
your mind and strength. If you move in love, you'll
get it right. And that's not just right, that's in righteousness.
(45:47):
If you move in God, and you don't know this
scripture about well, you can use a gold if you
don't have a lamb. You won't not use the goat
just because you don't have a lamb. You won't not
obey I was just talking anyway, okay. And the blood
shall be to you my people. The blood shall be
(46:13):
to you for a token upon the houses, the houses
where ye are. And when I see the blood, I
will pass over. See this is passover. I will pass
over you. And the plague shall not be upon you
(46:38):
to destroy you. Now notice he said it won't be
upon you to destroy you. And I didn't finish telling
you in case you hadn't read it. When Moses went
to the end, he's on his way. He's on his
way to do what God told him to do at
the burning bush. The only thing is he married into
(46:59):
a family her His father in law was a priest,
but of some other God, and they had their practices,
and circumcision wasn't one of them. And circumcision is a
covenant of God, of Yahweh. And how are you going
to go? And you're not even under the covenant yourself?
(47:24):
And the scripture says God sought to kill him in
the end, and as you read on you realize it
was the son and Jiporis she understood, and she circumcised
her son herself. I'm a mom. My first born is
a son. I can't imagine doing such a thing except
for that to save his life. Yes I would. Oh God,
(47:47):
I've been through such kind of things for my son
as a baby. And I get it. I get it
when I read that, and it so that she do
anything for her son. But she despised what she had
to do. Bloody, a bloody husband, you are to me,
(48:12):
she said, And they both realized the necessity of it.
And they also realized by the way, the necessity of
moving in love. When you move in love, you get
it right, you move in righteousness. And at that time
Moses sent her away. We find that later in scripture
that Moses is the one who sent her away, divorced
(48:36):
her and she went home to Papa. And later we
find after they're out of Egypt, and Moses was able
to do all this. And I'm giving you that so
that we understand that your household breaks up. We have
the church Yanity has their tradition to get your household
(48:57):
in order first before you can continue to leave. There
wasn't time to do it different. This is the time
of God's promise to Abram and to Abraham, not two
different people. This is God's timing, and He's bringing all
of this. And I'm gonna run through the rest because
(49:21):
I took so much time to bring you the understanding.
I want you to understand that the Lamb had to
be a certain way. And as you read through this,
you'll find that I want to read, fifteen seven days
shall you eat leven bread unleavened? Even the first day,
(49:44):
ye shall put away leven out of your houses. For
whosoever eat of the leaven bread from the first day
onto the seventh day, that soul shall be cut off
from Israel. You see, we have things that are habits
and things that we think are okay, and we don't
know God's word about it. He's the one that told him,
(50:05):
don't do this, leven, and that is to remember to
remember that you had to do this in flight, and
you had to obey with all of this going on.
Those are some of the reasons read it all, read
it all, and read it several times. Anyway, I want
you to understand that when we later have the cracker,
(50:27):
or we know that it's on eleven, we've already had
all of this, and we have the scripture that tells
us a little eleven leven's the whole lump. A little
wrong makes it all wrong. It'll cause it to rise
up in other places that you didn't expect. That you
didn't know that, you didn't understand that, you weren't looking
(50:48):
for it because you're only looking at what you did.
You did it right. So because it took so long.
With that, I want you to understand when we take communion,
understand what God was giving us. To understand several things
O Heaven, because you're going to do some things on
(51:09):
the run. You're going to do some things under more
pressure than what even makes sense in the earth, than
what makes sense in any kind of way. But the
peace of God. Remember, Philippians, be anxious for nothing but
with prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your request be
made known under God. And the peace of God, which
(51:32):
passes understanding, will keep your heart and mind. And I
think it says imperfect peace, and always remind you your understanding,
that's your misunderstanding, you're right understanding, You're right wrong understanding,
your partial understanding. God's word is God's word. Now I
want to move on from this because I want to
show you in the first Communion it's I want to
(51:59):
say General fourteen and if i'm Genesis fourteen, the first
Communion Elchizdic, I want you to understand that Abram had
raised his household, not trying to be a soldier. As Abram,
he was treated as a king in the earth. He
(52:19):
didn't have the title, but when you look at all
the contracts and the sales that he did, culturally, everything
was done the way a king did the way today
would say a CEO, I want you to see these things.
And when God made him Abraham, he was already had
this relationship. Remember, people of excellence, you came here annoyed
(52:44):
and appointed and equipped for who God made you and
what God made you. You're anoyed in a sense that
you attract who God means for you to minister to
who God gave you word and words for prophesy and
prophetic for teaching and understanding. For that's who you are
(53:05):
trapped and that who has ears to hear. Even when
they don't like it, they don't like where you came from.
I remember one pastor didn't like it and wanted to
disown me because he found out that I would preach
at the Unitarian church. I'm not Unitarian. I'm looking to
be a Unitarian, but when they invite me, I let
him know that, Hey, you don't want to recognize Jesus,
(53:28):
I'm gonna let you know he's the one who was
died on the cross for your sins born of a virgin.
You don't want to believe that stuff. I'm going to
preach that stuff. If you're inviting me to preach, that's
what I'm going to preach to you. And they would
invite me anyway because they wanted the miracles that God
would do through me. However, one renowned preacher God called
(53:50):
him to the city and called him to do things
in the city, the same city I was in. He
renounced me when he found out that she's up there
preaching in those Unitarian churches. Yeah, they invited me. I'm
gonna give you the word. I'm gonna give you the word,
and I'm not just gonna give you the part of
(54:12):
the word you accept. I'm going to give you the
word that God gave on the thing that He gave
me to give you alway, So whether somebody likes it
or rather they don't like it, you give them the word.
And for me, that's very specific because God called me
from the Book of Ezekiel, and he said, tell them,
rather they hear or rather they forbear, whether they want
(54:35):
to hear it, whether they don't want to hear it.
You tell them, and like Ezekiel, God says, I hold
you responsible because if they die because they didn't they
didn't get to hear it and obey. Now, if they
got to hear it from you and they didn't obey
and died, their blood is not on your hands. But
if you didn't tell them that they could convert and
(54:55):
change and they die, the blood is on your hands.
So I'm letting you know you're anointed, unappointed, and equipped.
You draw who got it? You anointed you four and two.
You get their attention even when they don't like it,
and you get their attention when they love it. And
(55:20):
I want you to know, Melchizedic, hi priest of the
Most High, he gave a new revelation of God. You
should have that in your communion, a revelation that Abram
had not had before. And one of the things things
God taught me about when you're teaching things new to children,
(55:42):
when you're teaching people things new, they can repeat it
back to you. And the name that Melchizedic gave Abram
repeated that thing back. Now it's his. It's not just
what the high priest said to him. It's his, and
he was able to move in that. Understand, when you
(56:03):
have something, when you have ears to hear, you can
say it. Remember, say to this mountain, be thou removed,
and it shall obey you. You say things, it's yours. Okay. Now,
in the Last Supper, I've wanted to go through each
of the gospels with you, but right now, because we
(56:24):
only have a two minutes left, I want to remind
you where Jesus said to them that I'm not going
to eat this with you again untill I eat it
new with you new in the kingdom. I think he's
referring to the First Communion, because that is where five
kings mighty in the earth came and took Lot and
(56:48):
his household, Solomon Gamarn and some other kings too. However,
Abram was already prepared the way that God had made
him to be. Of his household. He had people who
were like soldiers, and they went and they rescued Lot,
they rescued everybody that was taken, and they sang song.
(57:12):
And I think in that Last Supper where Jesus said
I won't drink this with you till new in the Kingdom,
I think he's referring to when you didn't lose any. Remember,
Jesus said, I haven't lost any that you gave me.
I think he's referring to that where Abram didn't lose any,
(57:32):
not even a lot who chose to go to Sodom
and Gamara, and not even all the Sodom and Gamara.
He brought back everything, and Melchizedek, the high priest, blessed him,
and he gave him the bread, that unloving bread, and
(57:56):
the wine, the representation of the blood, and the scripture
lets us know that all of this, along with tides
and offerings, was in the loins of Abraham, so that
all the generations we're living in times when you do
this and you take your communion, all three of these
(58:19):
aspects have to do with it, and it's changing and
correcting the error of the times. In Jesus' name, do it.
He is the amen
