He argues against scholarly interpretations that reduce the text to erotica, instead positioning it as a prophetic journey of the soul's union with Christ. ### Core Teaching Framework **The Shulamite Journey**: Simmons identifies believers as the "Shulamite" (feminine form of Solomon), emphasizing the mystical marriage between Christ and His bride. The eight chapters represent a progressive spiritual journey from initial desire ("let him kiss me") to complete union. **Seven Signposts of Seasonal Change** (Song of Songs 2:10-13): 1. Bondage of barren winter has ended 2. Season of hiding is over 3. Rains have soaked the earth (Holy Spirit renewal) 4. Blossoming flowers appear (promises manifesting) 5. Season of singing and pruning has arrived 6. Cooing of doves is heard (Holy Spirit's voice) 7. Fig tree budding (God's purposes emerging) ### Worship as Transformation The service begins with extended worship emphasizing breakthrough themes ("anything is possible," "God of the breakthrough"). Simmons connects this to his teaching on revelation as transformation rather than mere information transfer. ### Personal Testimony and Credibility Simmons establishes authority through: - 30 years studying Song of Songs - Translating it for The Passion Translation - Missionary experience in Panama (95% tribal conversion) - Multiple life-threatening experiences where God intervened - Extensive scholarly research (120+ commentaries) ## 🗒️ Notes #### ⏱️ [00:00:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCZgol8Otvg&t=0) Opening Worship and Introduction - Emphasis on "now" versus "back then" or "hopefully when" - Hebrew 6:18 - anchored hope to mercy seat - Call to worship from present reality into eternity #### ⏱️ [00:15:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCZgol8Otvg&t=942) Extended Worship Session - "God of the Breakthrough" - central theme of overcoming impossibilities - "Anything is possible" declarations - Physical expressions encouraged (victory dance, shaking off fear) - Congregational response and participation #### ⏱️ [00:35:20](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCZgol8Otvg&t=2120) Simmons' Personal Testimony - Panama tribal ministry - Luke 1:37 "nothing impossible with God" - Multiple near-death experiences (train accident, flooding, etc.) - Emphasis on God doing "impossible things" #### ⏱️ [00:42:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCZgol8Otvg&t=2535) Introduction to Song of Songs - 30-year journey with the text - Critique of modern scholarship reducing it to erotica - Church fathers' consistent mystical interpretation for 1800 years - 120+ commentaries studied #### ⏱️ [00:48:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCZgol8Otvg&t=2910) Language of God is Pictures - Hebrew word "nashaq" (kiss) also means "drink wine" - Divine intoxication theme - Revelation versus information - transformation focus #### ⏱️ [00:52:10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCZgol8Otvg&t=3130) Song of Songs Chapter 2 Analysis - Jesus "leaping over mountains" of fear and insecurity - Call to "arise" and "come away" - Seven signposts of seasonal change - Believer's resistance to leaving comfort zone #### ⏱️ [01:08:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCZgol8Otvg&t=4125) "Season Has Changed" Declaration - Prophetic word for the church - No returning to previous patterns - Divine orchestration of cosmic change - Movement from "third to fourth gear" #### ⏱️ [01:15:20](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCZgol8Otvg&t=4520) Catching the Foxes - "Little foxes" that compromise spiritual growth - Issues that keep resurfacing - Partnership with God in spiritual warfare #### ⏱️ [01:18:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCZgol8Otvg&t=4710) The Bride's "No" to Jesus - Chapter 2 ending - rejection of the call - Chapter 3 - dark night consequences - Chapter 4 - final "yes" and revelation of bridal identity #### ⏱️ [01:22:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCZgol8Otvg&t=4965) "You Have Ravished My Heart" - Hebrew "lib'baytini" - causing God's heart to skip a beat - Power of saying "yes" to God's call - Believer's effect on the heart of Jesus ## 📚 References - [Song of Songs 2:8-17](https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Song+of+Songs+2%3A8-17&version=NIV) - [Hebrews 6:18](https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Hebrews+6%3A18&version=NIV) - [Luke 1:37](https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke+1%3A37&version=NIV) - [The Passion Translation](https://www.thepassiontranslation.com/) - [World Harvest Outreach](https://www.worldharvestoutreach.org/) ## 🗣️ Paraphrase Brian Simmons teaches that Song of Songs represents the highest revelation of divine love in Scripture, calling believers to move beyond intellectual Christianity into experiential intimacy with God. Using the metaphor of bridal mysticism, he positions the eight-chapter journey as every believer's potential path from initial spiritual hunger to complete union with Christ. The central message focuses on God's call to "arise" from comfort zones and hiding places into new spiritual dimensions. Simmons identifies seven prophetic signs indicating that believers are in a season of divine change, emphasizing that there's no returning to previous spiritual states. Through extended worship and personal testimony, the service creates an atmosphere of expectation for supernatural breakthrough. Simmons' authority stems from decades of scholarly study combined with missionary experience, particularly his claim of 95% tribal conversion in Panama. ## 📰 Newsletter **Mystical Love and Divine Breakthrough: Song of Songs for Today's Church** This weekend at World Harvest Outreach, translator Brian Simmons delivered a powerful message on Song of Songs as the ultimate love story between Christ and His bride. Moving far beyond surface interpretations, Simmons presented the eight chapters as a prophetic roadmap for spiritual intimacy. Key takeaways for WordPress ministry leaders: - **Worship Creates Transformation**: Extended worship sessions literally "prune" dead spiritual material while opening hearts to revelation - **Revelation Over Information**: Facts inform, but divine revelation transforms at the cellular level - **Seasonal Discernment**: Seven biblical signs help identify when God is calling for breakthrough - **Overcoming Spiritual Hiding**: God targets our comfort zones specifically because He's calling us higher The service combined scholarly depth with charismatic expression, creating space for both intellectual engagement and spiritual encounter. Particularly relevant for digital ministry: the emphasis on "now" rather than "back then" or "someday" speaks to creating present-tense connection in our online communities. For those interested in bridal mysticism or deeper Song of Songs study, this teaching offers a compelling framework for understanding Scripture's most intimate book. ## ✅ Action Items #### DevRel -

development - **Training:** Develop courses on building contemplative/mystical community websites - **Documentation:** Create guides for spiritual content management and online spiritual direction ## 🧪 Hypotheses 1. **Bridal mysticism frameworks increase spiritual engagement compared to traditional doctrinal teaching approaches** 2. **Extended worship sessions create measurably different psychological states than brief musical introductions** 3. **Personal testimony combined with scholarly credentials creates stronger teaching authority than either alone** 4. **Metaphorical biblical interpretation resonates more deeply with contemporary audiences than literal approaches** 5. **Prophetic declarations about "seasonal change" increase congregational receptivity to behavioral modifications** 6. **Charismatic expression combined with intellectual content creates broader appeal than either approach independently** ### 📊 Methodology - Comparative studies of engagement metrics between mystical versus doctrinal teaching styles - Neurological measurement of brain states during extended worship versus brief musical segments - Survey analysis of perceived authority based on testimony/scholarship combinations - Focus groups comparing response to metaphorical versus literal biblical interpretation - Longitudinal tracking of behavioral changes following prophetic seasonal declarations - Mixed-methods analysis of charismatic-intellectual hybrid approaches versus single-stream methods ### ❓ Questions - How does bridal mysticism theology interact with contemporary gender discussions? - What are the practical applications of "seasonal discernment" in church leadership? - How do mystical interpretations of Scripture maintain biblical authority? - What role does scholarly research play in validating experiential spiritual claims? - How can digital platforms effectively convey mystical/contemplative experiences? ### 🔮 Future Research - Historical analysis of bridal mysticism in Christian tradition - Psychological studies of mystical experience in religious contexts - Comparative theology of Song of Songs interpretations across denominations - Digital ministry applications for contemplative/mystical content - Leadership implications of prophetic seasonal declarations ### 💡 Implications **Practice**: Churches may increasingly adopt mystical frameworks for spiritual formation, potentially shifting from information-transfer to experience-focused ministry models. **Theology**: Bridal mysticism interpretations could influence contemporary worship styles, spiritual direction practices, and approaches to biblical hermeneutics. **Leadership**: Pastoral authority may increasingly require both scholarly credentials and personal testimony/experience rather than either alone. **Technology**: Digital platforms will need to adapt to convey contemplative experiences, potentially requiring new interface designs and interaction models. **Culture**: The integration of intellectual rigor with charismatic expression may create new models for religious communication in post-modern contexts. ### 🧠 Learning Styles Assessment

illustrates overcoming spiritual obstacles #### Fallacies **Appeal to authority**: Heavy reliance on scholarly research (120 commentaries) and church fathers without sufficient critical evaluation of contrary views **False dilemma**: Presents choice between "erotica" interpretation and mystical interpretation without acknowledging nuanced middle positions **Post hoc reasoning**: Attributes positive outcomes in Panama to specific theological approach without controlling for other variables #### Tone of voice **Enthusiastic and intimate**: Uses casual language ("dude," "bro") combined with reverent spiritual terminology, creating approachable yet sacred atmosphere **Authoritative yet vulnerable**: Combines scholarly credentials with personal failure stories, building trust through transparency ### 🛡️ DARVO Analysis No significant DARVO patterns detected in this teaching. The content focuses on positive spiritual invitation rather than defensive rhetoric. Simmons acknowledges his own past failures and presents himself as recipient of grace rather than victim of attack. ## 🎯 Conclusion Brian Simmons presents Song of Songs as a transformational roadmap for spiritual intimacy, calling believers to move beyond intellectual Christianity into experiential union with Christ. His integration of scholarly research with charismatic expression creates a compelling framework for mystical spirituality within evangelical contexts. The core message - that God is calling His people to "arise" from comfort zones into deeper spiritual dimensions - resonates particularly in contexts of cultural and spiritual transition. The seven seasonal signposts provide practical framework for discerning divine timing and responding to God's invitations for growth. For ministry leaders, this approach demonstrates the power of combining extended worship with metaphorical biblical interpretation to create transformational rather than merely informational spiritual encounters. The emphasis on present-tense spirituality ("now" rather than "someday") offers valuable insights for digital ministry contexts seeking to create immediate spiritual connection. ## 🔄 Refactor Appendix

the [21:36] tribe in [21:37] panama that we ministered to the very [21:39] first verse [21:40] that we had to memorize was all things [21:43] are possible with god [21:45] and it was luke 1 37 [21:53] pop dean pale emo kuto [21:57] and uh we saw a whole tribe [22:00] come to the lord 95 of them accepted the [22:02] lord [22:04] and they were animus that's [22:07] almost impossible isn't it but god won a [22:10] whole [22:11] people group to the lord and so i just [22:14] want to say [22:15] i don't know what's impossible you're [22:18] that you think is impossible in your [22:19] life [22:21] but nothing is impossible if you don't [22:23] know that verse [22:25] memorize it today go find it in the [22:28] scripture luke 1 37 [22:30] and just place that as a feel over your [22:32] heart of his love [22:33] that he's going to come to you whatever [22:35] that is maybe you're sick today [22:37] maybe you need finances maybe you [22:40] haven't uh well in connecticut they [22:42] don't have any electricity so we're [22:44] claiming we're saying uh let there be [22:47] light [22:48] so whatever it is you're needing nothing [22:51] is impossible this is the truth from the [22:53] word [22:54] of god you've got to just take a hold of [22:56] his truth we have seen [22:57] so many things that man would call [22:59] impossible [23:01] happen in our lives the enemy has tried [23:03] to kill us [23:04] over and over and over again [23:07] six days after we're married coming back [23:09] from our honeymoon [23:10] we were hit by a train totaled our car [23:14] but we were fine the lord preserved us [23:17] and [23:17] we'd face death i don't know how [23:19] flooding river with canoe accident [23:22] just all kinds of stuff but the lord [23:25] did impossible things for us and i'm [23:28] believing that for you today he's going [23:29] to do [23:30] impossible things and sometimes it's [23:33] just breaking through to our hearts [23:34] maybe you just haven't been able to let [23:36] him come in [23:37] and love you like you should because he [23:39] has an everlasting [23:41] beautiful love for you no matter what [23:44] you think of yourself he loves you with [23:46] an everlasting love [23:48] so take that promise to heart today [23:52] whatever that thing that you feel is [23:54] impossible [23:55] he's going to break through you heard [23:57] the word the song today he's going to [23:59] break through [24:00] and do great things for you whatever it [24:03] is you need so lord [24:04] you want to just raise your hand you [24:05] think of what it is maybe that you think [24:07] it's [24:08] maybe it's a salvation of a loved one i [24:11] saw my father he came to the lord at [24:13] 90 years old we just kept believing kept [24:17] believing [24:18] and then a miracle happened [24:22] he came to the lord so if you've got [24:23] somebody in your household that you [24:25] believe been believing for [24:26] keep believing nothing's impossible with [24:29] god lord we claim salvation for that [24:31] family member [24:32] lord jesus we pray for that we just [24:34] release that job [24:36] lord that someone's looking for a job we [24:38] thank

know how to do this [64:17] in a [64:18] in the coronavirus time so [64:21] would you turn to your neighbor and wave [64:23] or salute [64:25] or give a thumbs up or i don't know if [64:27] you feel comfortable hugging [64:29] you want to throw a mask on that's cool [64:52] so [64:55] whoo that shine's bright doesn't it [65:00] all right so there are a couple things i [65:02] want to make you aware of that we will [65:04] be doing [65:06] um this is going to be worth your time [65:10] and your money so we will be collecting [65:12] an offering [65:13] later okay um [65:16] so if you're going to pay by check [65:19] please make that out to world harvest [65:21] outreach [65:21] and when we collect the offering later [65:23] we'll make sure it gets to brian [65:28] we won't be taking on loan donations [65:31] through who but we'll give more [65:33] instructions on that later [65:34] okay so i just want you to be prepared [65:37] to give [65:38] because right now i know your hearts are [65:40] open to receive [65:42] and the response for receiving should [65:44] really be [65:46] a compelling to give that's how i kind [65:48] of look at it that's how i feel about it [65:51] but um i think the other thing that we [65:54] need to do is we do have children's [65:56] program tonight so we're going to [65:57] dismiss the kids [65:59] right we don't have nursery but we do [66:01] have kids [66:02] so huh four to eleven [66:06] not time for age four to eleven not [66:08] gonna be here from four to eleven [66:10] jocelyn mckeel over okay so ages four to [66:13] eleven you're gonna follow jocelyn [66:16] jocelyn you wanna wave [66:19] a flag or a hand or something [66:26] all right where's jen [66:30] jen could you come up here [66:33] i'm not going to ask you to say anything [66:34] but i just want you to be with me when [66:37] um because this is my better [66:41] this is my better half [66:44] you can bring him he may be loud [66:47] um so i it's [66:51] it's my honor to introduce to the family [66:55] um someone who is like a couple who have [66:57] been very [66:58] important and instrumental in our life [67:01] and [67:03] this moment is 14 years in the making [67:07] for us [67:08] for jen and i um we [67:12] just a little background in us and not [67:14] to take too much time but [67:16] jen and i grew up in the church i don't [67:18] remember meeting jen [67:19] we've known each other for that long i [67:21] can't tell you the moment that i met her [67:23] she's just always been in my life and [67:27] no it is true yeah um [67:30] so when we grew up in the same church [67:33] and you know as sometimes churches go [67:37] things go awry and we went through [67:41] the hardest time you could ever imagine [67:45] in the breakup of us leaving that of our [67:48] of our home [67:49] church and um we were just married [67:53] i think we were nine months married when [67:55] we when we had to go and it was the [67:57] hardest time in our lives [68:02] and jonah jonah wasn't born yet and we [68:05] left that church [68:06] and we called we called jen's dad and [68:10] jen and we said we need to find our [68:11] church right away [68:13] uh because we didn't want to go time [68:15] feeling comfortable not going to church [68:18] and so we took one sunday off and then [68:20] we said okay [68:22] roger tell us where to go where do we [68:24] have to go to church and say [68:25] listen you need to go to gateway [68:28] christian fellowship [68:29] in connecticut that's where you have to [68:31] go and [68:33] we were living in queens it was an hour [68:34] and 15-minute drive from where we were [68:37] we were we were just it was just me and [68:39] jen so whatever on a sunday morning we [68:41] get up we drive out to connecticut [68:42] we go to church and we just hang out and [68:45] we were in the most broken [68:47] state that we can be we're in so much [68:49] pain [68:50] and we wound up a gateway christian [68:53] fellowship [68:54] where brian and candace were the pastors [68:58] and they received us in so much love [69:02] and so much openness that we [69:06] could not help but be healed from [69:09] everything that we were going through [69:11] and we were broken we were broken they [69:13] know the backstory [69:14] maybe one day i'll tell you a little bit [69:16] about the backstory but they know that [69:18] the history and we were broken [69:23] and we walked into that place and it was [69:25] such a place of honor [69:27] such a place of love [69:31] such a place a wholeness that we're just [69:33] compelled [69:35] so we spent a year and a half there [69:38] until we moved here and the last thing [69:41] that we did before we left is [69:44] we dedicated jonah pastor brian [69:46] dedicated jonah when he [69:48] was six months old now he's sitting over [69:50] there he's [69:51] 14 and some he's gonna be 15 and we're [69:54] just amazed [69:56] so i could tell you you probably know [69:58] brian because of the passion translation [70:02] and that's awesome it's awesome [70:06] but i know him as a living translation [70:08] of jesus [70:11] i can believe everything that he's [70:13] putting in from a scholarly standpoint [70:15] and the hours that he put in i've seen [70:18] it [70:18] manifested in how him and brian how him [70:22] and candace [70:24] operate and how they love [70:27] so would you please honor him by [70:30] standing [70:31] and clapping and cheering for one of the [70:34] the most influential people in my life [70:38] brian and kenny [70:49] all right be seated in the heavenly [70:51] realm [70:54] we're by locational believers by the way [70:57] aren't these [70:58] this couple just amazing [71:02] and we we can't uh miss honoring [71:05] the senior leaders here so so [71:08] pleased to get to know you and and just [71:11] the short time [71:12] we're together with you i love your [71:14] sense of humor i get it [71:16] and i think he gets mine and that's [71:18] that's cool [71:19] and uh i told him today i i have one of [71:22] my better friends in life was a [71:24] missionary that we worked with [71:26] his name was ralph and he's like a dead [71:28] ringer for pastor mark [71:29] could you honor please don and mark and [71:32] their leadership here [71:35] and their family [71:38] half the worship team i think was their [71:39] family maybe tonight but that is so [71:41] awesome [71:42] okay how many ready for [71:46] a god smack tonight [71:49] for the lord to just sneak up on you [71:52] and just wreck you and the mountain of [71:54] your pride just melts like wax [71:56] and all that composure of your you're [71:59] the cool bro you know [72:01] you're the the woman that has it all [72:02] together uh-huh [72:04] and let's just let god really do [72:06] something special is that okay [72:08] over the next six hours that i speak [72:10] tonight [72:12] [Laughter] [72:16] lord i am so honored to be your son [72:21] your servant [72:24] i thank you god i've never understood [72:26] why you've chosen [72:28] me and my wife but we say thank you [72:33] you are so good to me lord you have been [72:36] so faithful [72:38] when i was wayward you [72:42] hunted me with an angelic posse [72:45] you tracked me down you took me out of [72:48] the pit [72:50] of darkness despair [72:54] you set me among princes of your people [72:59] and i thank you god you're so faithful [73:02] great is your faithfulness god [73:08] and i ask in spite of me tonight that [73:10] there will be a voice [73:12] heard within my voice that you'd pierce [73:15] the ears [73:17] of the lovers of god to hear truth [73:22] and to let it sink deep into the [73:26] cellular level [73:28] the dna level of who we are [73:32] that you might unveil the christ within [73:34] us [73:36] and cause your bride tonight to be [73:38] radiant [73:39] in jesus name amen [73:43] so it was almost 30 years ago that i [73:46] began to [73:46] discover a book in the bible that [73:51] i don't know i'm sure i'd read it [73:52] because i read through the bible you [73:54] know [73:55] a number of times but it never really [73:58] did much kind of like leviticus you know [74:01] the fat thereof on the altar burn it [74:04] thereof [74:05] thou shalt do with it and it was [74:09] it was the book of song of songs [74:12] and in that 30-year journey i have had [74:14] the privilege of [74:15] of i i'm sure i probably haven't [74:19] memorized now [74:20] i've been able to look at it in the [74:22] hebrew manuscripts [74:24] i've been able to now translate it into [74:26] the passion translation it was the very [74:28] first book [74:29] that i tackled in this project [74:32] that was 11 years ago and i can tell you [74:36] that it is the sweetest song you'll ever [74:38] hear [74:40] it's not the greatest song of solomon [74:43] it's the greatest song of all [74:49] and how i wish every songwriter and [74:51] musician and [74:54] worshiper would learn to dance to the [74:57] lyrics of this song [74:59] nothing will make you dance like this [75:01] song [75:02] where all our worship takes us that's [75:05] where this song begins [75:08] it is the the most supernatural [75:12] divinely composed poetic [75:16] colorful flavorful nuanced portion of [75:19] the bible you will ever read [75:21] and there's got to be a demon that gets [75:23] on your shoulder [75:24] little one you know and when you open up [75:27] to the song of songs it says [75:29] don't read that you'll go blind you [75:32] should not read that book [75:35] and modern scholarship has erroneously [75:42] lowered the meaning of the greatest song [75:45] ever the song of [75:46] all songs to little more than erotica [75:52] like get the kids out of the room double [75:54] x-rated [75:56] and all of these you know symbols [76:00] all speak about sexual pleasure [76:05] well i can i can absolutely if you [76:08] listen [76:09] i can remove all doubt in about 30 [76:11] seconds [76:14] ladies your hair [76:18] is like a flock of goats [76:23] i know i know you're getting excited [76:25] here [76:27] and your nose is like the tower of [76:32] damascus [76:34] and your [76:38] your your belly your waist is [76:42] a mound of wheat [76:48] and your cheeks are like halves of a [76:51] pomegranate [76:54] oh stop i ruined a good date night [76:58] with my wife trying to try it you know [77:02] but there's no working at my house bro [77:05] this is it is not [77:07] in any fashion to be lowered down to one [77:11] of solomon's [77:14] thousands of affairs that he had with [77:16] women [77:17] that somehow one of them stole his heart [77:20] and [77:20] ended up becoming sacred writ sacred [77:23] scripture [77:24] no a thousand times no [77:27] and there's not any of the church [77:28] fathers [77:30] for about 1800 years [77:34] no one looked at the book that way [77:39] and then there was one in the 1880s that [77:42] put out a commentary and then [77:44] somebody grabbed that and then the [77:46] sexual revolution of the 30s 1930s [77:49] and then even greater in the 60s [77:53] and then all of a sudden all the [77:55] contemporary scholars began writing [77:56] commentaries that it is [77:59] innuendo and it's like pillow talk [78:02] for you and your wife well if you need [78:05] that help bro [78:06] get it get the help you need but i have [78:10] found [78:11] that hidden in this text really not [78:13] hidden [78:14] that when you learn the language of god [78:18] which is not hebrew the language of god [78:22] is picture [78:23] that when you learn the language of god [78:28] this revelation this book unlocks a [78:32] place of your heart you didn't even know [78:33] was there [78:35] dude i'm talking to you alpha male [78:42] and then all of a sudden i got i got [78:44] enraptured with this [78:47] so i bought 90 commentaries [78:51] i searched and if you've got one i've [78:54] not read i'll i'll [78:55] i'll pay you good money for it and then [78:58] i get the scholarship [78:59] software with logos and it's got all [79:01] these commentaries i'm sure i've got now [79:03] 120 commentaries [79:05] plus on the song of songs i could take [79:08] you to my house and open up [79:10] what should be a linen closet but it's a [79:12] song of songs closet [79:14] and all these books and commentaries [79:20] i can tell you with every ounce of [79:23] conviction in my soul for what that's [79:25] worth [79:27] that this book will [79:30] set your spirit free [79:34] and how do you how do you embrace a book [79:36] of these eight chapters how do you [79:38] like you know it's impossible for me [79:41] in this what five hour what did i say [79:44] five hour [79:45] i'm gonna cut it to five because you're [79:47] really nice [79:48] but how can i in a five hour session [79:50] like this really [79:51] unveil the sacred journey [79:57] i will try and we won't go that long [80:01] but a book that starts out with a cry [80:03] for a kiss has got to take you somewhere [80:05] dude [80:05] it's got where's this headed you know [80:07] like can we slow dance first [80:10] like let him kiss me wow calm down [80:14] girl but that's the passion of a heart [80:19] it's not not you know a [80:22] puppy love of a juvenile this is the [80:25] passion [80:26] of a man's heart of a woman's heart that [80:29] wants [80:29] nothing more than the inflaming [80:32] power of his love to come over us [80:36] and the kiss becomes a metaphor [80:39] it becomes a symbol it becomes a picture [80:41] not of [80:42] lip to lip but of a heart heart [80:46] of a sacred embrace where god wraps his [80:49] glory around you and [80:51] and folds you into the the glory garment [80:55] of grace [80:57] and you awaken to who you really are and [81:00] that's just [81:01] one verse i spent a month on let him [81:06] a month meditating every morning i get [81:09] up [81:10] let him oh i like those words let him [81:14] let him let him [81:17] let him in the second month [81:22] kiss me kiss me [81:27] kiss me over here god [81:31] me let him kiss [81:34] me and then [81:38] he manifests right in front of her [81:41] and it goes from third person to second [81:43] person [81:44] and she says your love not his love [81:49] between those words between those four [81:51] words suddenly he a man he manifests in [81:53] front of her [81:55] i can't wait to do this on broadway [81:59] or to start our own production of it [82:04] look out sight and sound here we come [82:11] but when you hear the lyrics of this [82:16] symphony it moves the soul [82:22] and western christianity cannot be [82:24] reduced to intellectual [82:26] information information is not [82:30] transformation we do not transform [82:34] hearts by simply informing them [82:37] of doctrine and good bible teachings and [82:39] good truth [82:42] revelation is transformation [82:46] don't ever undervalue the power [82:50] of revelation [82:53] we are here because of a revelation of [82:55] jesus as our savior [82:58] when you get a revelation of jesus as [82:59] our healer [83:01] stuff happens what money is in the [83:06] natural [83:07] revelation is in the spiritual you [83:10] cannot [83:11] buy a healing you cannot [83:14] buy your son coming back to jesus [83:20] but when you get a revelation of the [83:22] shepherd the king the lover [83:25] that loves us to the end it says john 13 [83:28] 1 he loved his disciples to the [83:30] end and he'll go to the end to find you [83:34] with his love and you get a revelation [83:38] of his glory [83:39] of what he's really doing while the [83:42] world is shaking and confused and [83:44] uncertain about [83:45] everything you get a revelation that [83:49] is as been read to begin tonight it's an [83:52] anchor for our soul [83:56] so the revelation of his love and i'm [83:59] convinced having taught this [84:02] among the nations i went to africa [84:06] and and there was thousand pastors [84:10] all of them having good churches there [84:12] in [84:14] ghana [84:18] and the pastor said what do you i mean [84:19] the pastor is like going to run for [84:21] president okay so i mean this guy [84:22] is you've not met a champion like him [84:28] he says what are you going to speak on [84:29] to my pastors all the leaders [84:32] i said song of songs [84:36] he he said we don't do that in africa [84:40] we we don't let our pastors teach that [84:42] book we have [84:43] problems with adultery and immorality in [84:45] our church [84:46] so we don't let people we don't expose [84:49] them to that [84:51] i said well let's shake it up let's [84:53] shake the culture just a little bit [84:57] and all these beautiful pastors from [84:59] africa [85:01] champions every one of them devil [85:04] stompers [85:09] crying like babies wrapped in the love [85:12] of god [85:13] dark and lovely [85:16] so i'm going to have an african-american [85:18] be our shulamite [85:20] when we put this together [85:27] so the eight chapters of the song of [85:29] songs [85:30] is a a prophetic journey [85:33] and the key to understanding the song of [85:35] songs i'll give it to you real quick [85:36] number one you're the shulamite the word [85:39] shulamite the word [85:40] solomon comes from an identical [85:43] homonymic root in hebrew a tri-literal [85:47] root so shulamite feminine solomon [85:50] masculine [85:51] is joined as one get it we are one [85:55] with the lord jesus we are one spirit [85:57] first corinthians 6 17. [85:59] shulamite solomon [86:03] second is to see a journey [86:07] that this is not like uh scattered [86:11] uh canticles as some translations uh [86:14] post it it's not scattered poetry it's [86:17] not just [86:19] you know hodgepodge of put together [86:23] erotica from the days of solomon [86:27] it is a journey it's a storyline and [86:29] when you get the storyline and realize [86:31] it's your story [86:33] oh my you find yourself [86:36] in the pages of the greatest song ever [86:38] composed [86:42] so it begins with a kiss and it ends up [86:44] two becoming one [86:47] the mountains of spice the divine [86:49] honeymoon [86:50] of eternity where two lovers are [86:52] together forever [86:57] and i hope you can understand without [87:00] blushing [87:01] my passion [87:04] to be a lover of god [87:08] because the greatest commandment is to [87:11] read the bible with all thy heart [87:15] and quote the verses with all thy [87:16] strength [87:19] and double tithe and come to wednesday [87:20] night meetings [87:23] please uth no [87:27] what is it you will love the lord your [87:30] god [87:34] did you know there's two books in the [87:35] new testament written for the lovers of [87:37] god [87:39] it's luke and acts and it's written to a [87:42] guy named theophilus [87:44] but they never found him they never will [87:46] because theophilus [87:48] is a misunderstanding of the greek text [87:50] it really means [87:51] lover of god i write unto you [87:55] you most excellent lover of god [88:01] and acts is the same way so there's two [88:04] books in the bible that [88:06] are in the new testament that are [88:07] uniquely designed to increase your love [88:09] for the lord jesus [88:11] i'm the holy theophilus and so are you [88:16] so god is making lovers out of [88:19] men and women his army [88:23] is is an army of intoxicated lovers [88:29] oh no get me started on that one [88:35] the word let him kiss me [88:39] that word kiss nashaq [88:47] is a homonym it has another meaning [88:50] and the alternate meaning of kiss is to [88:53] take [88:54] a drink of wine and [88:57] every one of the church fathers [88:59] translated [89:00] the song of songs and they all saw it as [89:03] the kiss the divine kiss [89:04] as the inebriating kiss of heaven on [89:07] your heart [89:08] some of you need to take a double [89:09] tonight you're looking pretty uptight [89:13] cover page to the book of lamentations [89:15] you know [89:16] come on man there's nothing wrong with [89:19] you a kiss [89:19] from god could not cure could not heal [89:22] could not resolve [89:23] could not set in place [89:26] and as our heart aligns with this [89:30] embrace of heaven it's a love revival [89:34] that's coming man [89:36] it's a love revival [89:39] and it's the love feast of a bride and a [89:42] bridegroom it's the bridegroom's feast [89:45] and it doesn't start when we die it [89:47] starts when we [89:49] let me let me use a contemporary word [89:51] when we get woke [89:53] to the love of god [89:57] no matter what you know about the love [89:59] of god and this is not in any way meant [90:01] to [90:02] offend or put anybody down but no matter [90:04] how much you know about the love of god [90:06] can i say to you [90:09] you've got a gallon and you're calling [90:11] it an ocean [90:12] probably more like a thimble full [90:16] because the love of god the height the [90:18] width the length the depth [90:20] no one can fathom it it is beyond [90:23] comprehension so how in the world are [90:25] you going to analyze it [90:27] how are you going to put the love of god [90:29] in your head [90:30] you can't doesn't fit [90:34] the only thing that that fits the love [90:36] of god is the spirit within you [90:39] it's meant to be embraced i don't know [90:42] why my life [90:42] my why my wife loves me i don't know why [90:44] she said yes i mean i'd only come off of [90:46] drugs for two months [90:48] we had a long engagement three weeks man [90:50] please do not do this at home [90:51] boys and girls i don't know why she said [90:55] yes [90:56] she would probably say because she saw [90:57] the change jesus made in my life [91:01] but i don't sit around thinking about [91:03] what you know why does she love me [91:05] i just enjoy it [91:09] and the same way with god you ruin the [91:11] love of god if you analyze it [91:14] it's like a kiss man if you analyzed [91:18] a kiss you would never do it [91:21] do you know how many germs are in her [91:22] mouth i mean [91:24] the where you know like the slobber what [91:26] she ate what you ate [91:28] before where do you put your tongue i [91:29] mean there's so many things about a kiss [91:33] that you you you just do it boom [91:41] you don't analyze you don't stop [91:45] and so the love of god [91:48] it you ruin it when you try to [91:51] dissect it you can only embrace it [91:56] and you can only embrace it in your [91:59] innermost being [92:01] so the cry for a kiss brings him near [92:04] i'm going to jump to chapter 2 and we'll [92:05] focus on some verses and i'll let you go [92:08] but this this is really from the lord [92:12] i really feel from heaven that the lord [92:14] is saying these scriptures to this [92:16] church we actually sang [92:17] some of the truth from it now is the [92:20] time to arise didn't we sing that [92:22] and that some of our lyrics and i want [92:25] to talk about [92:26] this in chapter two so [92:30] um how many of you have jesus figured [92:34] out [92:37] no about the time you think you know him [92:42] he will come in a way you don't know [92:44] you've never experienced [92:46] out of your uh comfort zone in chapter [92:50] one he's the sweet savior he's the [92:52] sole satisfier he's the you know the [92:55] shepherd [92:56] he's the lover and he comes to lead [92:59] gently his flock you know [93:01] and she says i want you i don't want all [93:03] these dudes that are around you i mean [93:05] there's the fivefold is cool but [93:07] can i have you where can i find you [93:11] and he says well follow the tracks of [93:13] those who follow me [93:15] through church history go back and look [93:17] at the lovers of god [93:18] where they found me and that's where you [93:21] will find me [93:24] and chapter one ends in their in the the [93:27] green [93:28] pastures the verdant field of grace the [93:31] glorious [93:32] sunlit meadow of grace and they're [93:34] laying there looking into [93:36] the sky and the beautiful rafters and [93:38] the balconies of [93:39] eternity what a wonderful way to end [93:42] chapter one but in chapter two [93:44] suddenly he comes to her in a way [93:49] she can't believe he comes leaping over [93:52] mountains [93:54] if you find song of songs on your phone [93:57] or [93:57] if you have paper it's chapter 2 [94:00] verse 8. and [94:04] she is she's not where she should be [94:09] she's sitting on her couch chapter one [94:13] she said draw me and i will go after you [94:15] i will respond if you will tug [94:18] my heart i will go with you anytime [94:20] anywhere and i know you all have said [94:22] that a few times [94:25] and then he comes and she doesn't want [94:28] to go [94:31] so she hears him his lo [94:34] her lover's voice it's him coming to her [94:38] leaping over mountains water the [94:40] mountains your fear [94:43] insecurity not good enough [94:47] you know like his banner over me is [94:49] someday i'll like you [94:53] pray harder his banner over me is love [95:00] and the mountain of insecurity the [95:02] mountain of hiding and [95:04] of i'm not good enough and when is this [95:06] going to be resolved and [95:08] the mountains of distraction come on [95:11] he's leaping effortlessly over [95:14] everything that intimidates her [95:16] everything that limits her everything [95:18] that holds her back [95:19] and keeps her bound to status quo [95:26] leaping in love over the hills that [95:28] separate us verse nine [95:32] she describes him but i want you to jump [95:35] to the place here [95:36] that he comes closer you see it you can [95:38] see it on the screen or [95:40] on your app or whatever it says he comes [95:42] closer [95:44] even to the places where i hide he comes [95:47] to your hiding place [95:49] now the hebrew is actually behind our [95:51] wall [95:52] he he comes while i'm behind my wall he [95:56] comes there and that's where we hide [95:59] and god is targeting your hiding places [96:02] and we want to [96:04] we we want to come out from hiding in [96:06] this hour [96:08] amen [96:13] he's coming to take her away [96:16] to get her out of that couch to let go [96:20] of the remote control [96:22] you know the bag of potato chips [96:27] and get up and go he's calling her to a [96:31] new dimension [96:33] can i say it my friends he's calling you [96:38] let me get real specific he's calling [96:42] who he's calling [96:46] who you [96:50] to a new place it's world harvest [96:54] okay w-h-o all right [97:00] where are you hiding we all have hiding [97:04] places [97:06] he's targeting them right now even [97:09] behind our wall [97:10] now the wall in the in the bible is a [97:12] picture of [97:13] law keeping it's the middle wall that [97:16] separates us it's the veil between [97:19] holy and holiest of holies outer court [97:22] and [97:23] holy place and there he is he's coming [97:27] past those veils past the walls [97:34] verse 10 [97:38] he says these words arise my love [97:42] arise my dearest hurry come [97:47] come away with me [97:51] it's been said that the most beautiful [97:53] word [97:54] in the english language and i tend to [97:56] agree [97:57] the most beautiful word in the english [97:59] language [98:00] is come [98:03] and he comes to her and he comes to you [98:08] he says can't you let go of where you're [98:11] at [98:12] is it that great how's that working for [98:14] you [98:15] you really like that couch stinky smelly [98:18] couch [98:18] with the crumbs [98:22] behind your wall [98:26] come away with me why do you think he [98:28] came leaping over mountains [98:32] because that's what she's going to do [98:34] when she goes with him [98:35] i'm going to show you how to leap over [98:38] mountains [98:41] he's coming to disciple the last days [98:43] church [98:46] and he's not going to be set back [98:48] because we don't let him in [98:50] we don't want him to do this or to [98:51] change this or to [98:53] make us uncomfortable [98:56] he says i you asked me to come and i've [98:59] come as you asked to draw [99:01] you into my heart and now is the time my [99:03] beautiful one verse 11. [99:07] this is the word of the lord for the [99:10] house [99:12] these four words this season has changed [99:18] i heard this in my heart tonight [99:22] from the lord your season has changed [99:26] you're no longer where you were [99:29] it's not going back to what it was [99:34] hello the whole world [99:37] is changing and it's because god has [99:40] orchestrated the cosmos for divine [99:42] change and a shift to take place [99:46] from third to fourth gear and we're [99:49] burning rubber in all four gears [99:53] and here we are in this season that is [99:55] absolutely shifting [99:57] before our very eyes and he gives her [100:01] in this prophetic encouragement he gives [100:04] her seven signposts like [100:06] here are seven signs i'm going to set in [100:08] front of you to prove to you [100:10] that the season has changed number one [100:14] the bondage of your barren winter has [100:16] ended [100:18] bondage is over the barren winter where [100:21] everything is dormant and nothing seems [100:23] to grow and nothing seems to have [100:25] life and everything's in the cold barren [100:28] winter days [100:30] it's over your winter is past [100:34] you are no longer going to be equated [100:37] with your flaws with your failures [100:41] with your past [100:46] number two your season of hiding [100:50] is over and gone [100:53] you will no longer be able to make it [100:55] hiding there's only one hiding place and [100:58] that hiding place is the heart of jesus [101:00] it's hiding ourselves [101:02] in his heart there are times when [101:06] pressure mounts in my life i have to [101:08] take the hiding place [101:10] i literally call him my hiding place one [101:13] of the [101:13] one of the songs that i worship with is [101:15] you are my hiding place [101:17] god interesting in [101:20] isaiah 26 i think it's 26 20 it says [101:24] come come inside [101:28] your inner chamber shut the door behind [101:30] you [101:32] and wait for a little while until this [101:34] calamity has passed [101:36] the lord gave me that verse five months [101:38] ago when the quarantine started and [101:40] everything totally shut down [101:44] and he said come inside your innermost [101:46] chamber [101:48] shut the door behind you get rid of [101:49] distractions and wait [101:52] for a little while until this [101:55] calamity is over [102:00] is my hiding place isn't that good [102:03] when they threatened to kill me in the [102:06] jungle [102:08] i mean our next door neighbor his name [102:09] was kill moral [102:12] i mean that's i mean that's his name [102:14] kill [102:16] he said you go out in the jungle by [102:17] yourself i'm gonna kill you i said no [102:19] you're not he said yes i will i said no [102:20] you're not i said yes i will i said no [102:21] you're not [102:25] he got up really mad [102:28] he's about half my size [102:31] i said you're not because god's not [102:33] going to let you kill me i came here [102:35] just to [102:35] send to bring you the gospel of jesus [102:39] you're not going to kill me he may have [102:41] tried to poison me [102:44] but he didn't kill me we got back to the [102:47] u.s [102:49] years back and i get this crumpled [102:52] water soaked hard to read scrawled out [102:55] letter [102:56] from guess who killed morrow i just want [102:58] you to know i came to know jesus [103:01] and i see now why god sent you to our [103:03] village [103:04] he was one of the few holdouts candace [103:07] said 95 [103:08] of our village came to the lord they did [103:10] he was not part of that 95 he was part [103:12] of the [103:13] the five [103:20] the bondage of your winners ended the [103:21] season of hiding is over number three [103:23] the [103:24] rains have soaked the earth rains are [103:27] always a picture of the [103:29] renewing of the holy spirit the rain of [103:32] god [103:34] rain spiritually is a picture of [103:35] revelation truth it falls his word falls [103:38] like rain [103:40] rain is in the natural is revelation [103:44] truth [103:44] falling on our hearts the dry hearts of [103:47] men and women we're made of earth [103:50] so the earth is now soaked [103:54] number four the blossoming flowers [103:57] appear [103:59] the flowers are now everywhere flowers [104:02] what are they a picture of metaphor [104:04] the loving care of jesus flowers of his [104:08] promise of his grace the blooming [104:10] work of love and our heart that you know [104:13] when somebody's sick [104:15] we send them flowers when we want to [104:17] enter into somebody's joy we'll send [104:19] flowers of congratulations [104:25] was it number five cooing of doves [104:28] is heard in our land the holy spirit is [104:32] the dove [104:33] and he's cooing over you tonight i can [104:35] hear it [104:42] may my words be the cooing of a dove [104:45] over your heart [104:49] he is trying to win you [104:55] number six filling the air with songs to [104:59] awaken you and guide you forward [105:01] i left one out i'm sorry i thank you i [105:04] left one out [105:05] the season of singing and pruning has [105:07] arrived now [105:08] why what is singing and pruning zamir [105:11] the hebrew word zamir [105:13] is a homonym that means singing and [105:15] pruning [105:19] isn't it interesting about the second [105:20] song of worship all the dead stuff gets [105:22] pruned right off your heart and you [105:24] start [105:24] you really begin to connect i always [105:27] love those second songs [105:28] of worship it's because worship [105:32] prunes our lives it does something to us [105:35] you know what i'm talking about lovers [105:37] of god [105:39] so the season of worship is now flooding [105:42] everywhere [105:46] so i put both in the translation with a [105:48] footnote to explain why [105:50] i did and if you look at translations [105:52] half of them will have singing half of [105:53] them will have pruning [105:55] which is it yes [105:59] and then the last one uh songs that [106:02] awaken [106:02] you and guide you verse 13 [106:08] can't you discern beautiful people [106:13] this new day of destiny breaking forth [106:16] around you [106:18] the early signs the fig tree is starting [106:21] to [106:21] to to bud that fig tree is always a [106:25] picture prophetically of the purpose of [106:27] god [106:29] adam and eve covered themselves with fig [106:32] leaves the fig tree was the only thing [106:34] jesus [106:35] ever cursed [106:40] even nathaniel was sitting under a [106:42] sycamore fig tree [106:45] when the lord saw him in the spirit [106:50] so this fig tree starting to bud [106:53] is a picture of the signs and purposes [106:56] of god's plans [106:57] coming forth the budding vines of new [107:00] life that's the local church the budding [107:02] vines [107:03] we are the vineyard of his love the [107:06] budding vines [107:08] are now blooming [107:14] it's fun coming to church being a part [107:21] i was telling the story ben and jen [107:24] over the most awesome salmon we had for [107:27] lunch today [107:28] by the way i was telling the story about

and then one kid comes running down the [108:15] steps running up to the platform comes [108:18] right up to me and says [108:19] hits me with the paper airplane he said [108:22] i want my 20 bucks i

[112:51] catch the foxes the sly little foxes [112:55] that have hindered our relationship [112:57] they come out at night and they raid in [112:59] the [113:00] cover of darkness and they they bring [113:02] compromise [113:03] into our vineyard of love the little [113:06] things those things that you don't think [113:07] matter to god catch them for us [113:13] and come with me we'll do it together [113:20] are there foxes that are eating away the [113:23] budding new life in you [113:28] issues that keep resurfacing [113:31] when you think you're over it and there [113:33] it is again [113:35] and again get those [113:38] boogers get those foxes [113:42] catch them tie their tails together [113:47] like samson and put the torch of truth [113:52] between their tails and kick them out in [113:54] the fields of the flesh of [113:56] philistines [113:59] verse 16. [114:03] she responds [114:06] he says arise and come away and she says [114:10] no thanks i don't do mountains [114:15] i do church services i do conferences [114:20] i do live stream [114:23] but i don't do mountains it's dark [114:26] i barely know you it's only chapter two [114:29] and what what if i fail [114:30] what if i slide down the mountain it's a [114:32] dark slippery trail i've never been on [114:35] that mountain before [114:36] with a man i barely know i [114:40] i know you're mine and i have everything [114:42] in you we delight ourselves [114:43] in each other but verse 17 she says [114:46] until the day [114:47] springs to life and the shifting shadows [114:49] of fear [114:50] disappear turn around go back [114:53] ascend to the mountain of separation [114:57] without me [115:00] sadly the translations uh most [115:04] translations do [115:05] hide this it's not turn it's return [115:09] and most translations say turn my love [115:11] my lover my beloved but it's not turn [115:13] it's [115:13] go back where you came from until the [115:18] day [115:18] fully dawns go on ahead and come back [115:23] when i glow in the dark and i'm ready [115:25] and i have no problems [115:28] and of course then i'll go with you but [115:31] he's not [115:32] he doesn't he comes at the most [115:34] inopportune time like [115:36] like what nine o'clock [115:39] and says arise my love come away [115:42] let me take you where you've never been [115:44] before let me take you into a realm of [115:46] spirit union [115:48] of being one with me where nothing will [115:51] hinder you [115:53] nothing will hinder you [115:56] arise come away come on [116:01] i'll take you [116:06] in chapter four she finally says yes [116:11] chapter three she had to go through a [116:13] dark night she had to go through [116:16] she had to go through the knowledge of [116:18] of she said no to jesus have you ever [116:20] said [116:21] no to jesus be careful [116:24] he's listening have you ever said no [116:28] when he comes to say come let's go [116:31] now's the time now is the shift [116:34] the season has changed you're never [116:38] going back there [116:39] you're never going back to the past [116:41] again [116:43] you're only going to come into the [116:46] future with me [116:48] to a mountain you've never been to into [116:50] a realm [116:52] you may have heard about but you've not [116:54] experienced fully [116:57] chapter four he tells her from head to [117:00] toe and this is where [117:02] this is where the erotica part comes in [117:05] from head to toe he describes the [117:07] features of the bride [117:09] using metaphoric language [117:12] the hair their teeth you know not one is [117:15] missing [117:16] oh that's good she got all her teeth [117:23] and after he describes her her beauty [117:26] in this metaphoric language you know the [117:28] hair is devotion [117:30] teeth is what we use to process the [117:33] deeper revelation of god [117:35] the truths the meat of the word of god [117:38] her cheeks [117:39] is her countenance it's where emotion [117:41] her emotional life [117:42] is displayed and she's wholesome she's [117:45] her cheeks are [117:46] opened like blushing pomegranates she's [117:49] not closed down she's not shut down [117:52] she's approachable he can reach into her [117:55] heart [117:55] and touch the deep place within her and [117:58] she will respond [118:02] and after hearing all of this she says [118:03] all right i'm gonna go i'm gonna go with [118:05] you [118:05] i don't care if i still have doubts and [118:07] shadows and fears and all this other [118:09] stuff [118:09] i'm gonna go with you and you know what [118:11] he says to her [118:14] he calls her his bride and for the first [118:17] time [118:19] she gets the revelation that she is his [118:21] bride [118:24] i'm going to end with this [118:28] i usually have three closings this is [118:30] number one [118:35] when you see me close the bible that's [118:36] that's the sign that [118:38] thank god [118:45] he says you have ravished my heart [118:48] you have ravished my heart [118:52] what she hasn't done anything she just [118:56] said yes she didn't go the mountain she [118:58] just said [118:58] okay and he says [119:02] to you when you say yes to me [119:05] when you will go where you've never been [119:07] and you you you think you're not ready [119:10] and you're not a hundred you're 99 [119:13] there but still you say yes [119:16] you are ravishing his heart [119:22] so lee bob thiny is the hebrew word [119:25] libertini lib heart [119:28] and i you do something to his heart [119:30] would you like to know what you do to [119:31] his heart [119:34] well different translations use [119:36] different words [119:38] one is you've stolen my heart i like [119:40] that [119:42] you've stolen my heart that's good [119:46] another is you've enthralled me you have [119:50] brought me ecstasy but it doesn't really [119:53] use the word heart in there [119:57] it's really uh in a sense it's [120:00] you cause his heart to skip a beat [120:04] you do something to the heart of jesus [120:06] that [120:08] gives him arrhythmia he [120:12] needs a pacemaker when he looks at your [120:15] yielded soul [120:18] when you say yes to him [120:21] you've made it all about you you don't [120:23] understand that you're his banqueting [120:25] table you are his [120:27] goblet of new wine you are his fresh [120:31] sweet kingdom feast [120:34] and we do something to him and when the [120:38] church comes to the point where we [120:40] we we get it and it's not about us it's [120:42] about pleasing him it's what we do to [120:44] him [120:45] that will change the world we won't hold [120:48] back from him [120:49] what moves his heart and changes the [120:52] atmosphere [120:53] and awakens the city [120:59] you have ravished my heart my equal my [121:02] bride [121:06] you you've [121:09] you've conquered me is what he says you [121:12] have [121:13] i'm overcome by a glance of your eyes [121:15] are you listening [121:16] boys and girls one glance one [121:19] glance of your eyes and you [121:23] ravish his heart you [121:27] leave him conquered he's undone [121:30] one glance not three choruses one [121:34] glance [121:37] and he's ravished by your gaze [121:47] nobody conquers jesus demons [121:50] principalities all the snarling filth of [121:54] the demonic realm [121:56] none of it combined can do to jesus what [121:59] you do [122:02] you conquer [122:05] the unconquerable christ [122:09] you move his heart you steal [122:13] his heart [122:16] now if you conquer a conqueror [122:21] why that would make you more [122:25] than a conqueror [122:29] where do you think pauline theology came [122:31] from [122:32] the heartbeat of god the song of songs [122:35] i'm going to co-author a book if god [122:37] gives me grace in my busy schedule [122:40] a friend of mine by the name of winnie [122:42] banoff and i want to [122:43] co-author a book on pauline theology and [122:46] its roots in the song of songs [122:48] we're

with the [128:48] leaders [128:51] some of you will believe google more [128:53] than you believe me [128:55] but there was a man in history named [128:57] joseph of cupertino [129:02] every time he took communion he floated [129:06] off the ground [129:07] and he ruined church services because [129:10] everybody was looking at him [129:12] suspended so they literally [129:16] insisted that he'd take communion and [129:18] they would they would [129:19] tie him his leg to the to a stake they'd [129:23] tie him down because he as he took [129:27] communion he feasted on love the love [129:30] feast [129:30] what's going to happen when we start in [129:32] the love feast again [129:34] you know we change the name of our [129:36] ministry the love feast [129:41] that'll get people coming in [129:45] and he would he would just he the name [129:48] jesus [129:49] so all the young guys just to to bother [129:52] him [129:52] they'd see him walking down the street [129:54] and they'd walk up and say jesus [129:57] and he would float again in front of [130:00] them [130:01] yeah you don't believe me and suddenly [130:03] you find it on google [130:06] oh you have little faith didn't we sing [130:10] something about [130:10] nothing is impossible you know [130:16] oh well except that [130:20] oh my you don't have no you have no clue [130:22] what's about to [130:23] to hit planet earth the steel punch of [130:25] god is about to shake the darkness [130:30] an awakening that'll [130:34] knock the daylights into you is coming [130:37] to the planet [130:40] god has the last word on the last days [130:44] and that last chapter ain't has not been [130:46] written yet [130:48] and a billion soul harvest is coming and [130:51] we're going to give them a revival bible [130:54] the lord's showing me this is for the [130:55] billion soul harvest and if you don't [130:57] like it [130:57] you don't like the past i love you [130:59] you're still my friend but your kids [131:00] will [131:01] and your grandkids will i'm doing it for [131:08] them [131:10] so take more see it's not six hours [131:14] that's [131:14] only four take more come on [131:18] are you are you done already [131:21] what if you know our friend jill austin [131:24] she's now in heaven but [131:26] she came to our church so many times and [131:29] that last [131:30] remnant of theology that says god can't [131:33] really use a woman [131:34] she blew through that wall [131:38] and knocked me down so [131:41] i flew back 10 feet [131:45] when she prayed over me the first time [131:49] and she always taught us holy spirit [131:52] loves to come in power when most the [131:54] people leave [131:57] and those that linger fellowship is [132:00] linger to linger with god [132:09] i'm not trying to keep you late but i [132:11] think the lord still wants to do some [132:13] things we're going to pray for [132:14] ministry leaders and pastors in just a [132:16] moment [132:17] we want to bless them is that okay we do [132:19] that [132:20] we've got quite a few here in the room [132:21] we just want to pray [132:23] for them over them maybe prophesy to [132:26] them [132:27] so candace get a few dozen words for [132:30] everybody please [132:36] love being here with you [132:41] and this god has a plan [132:45] to make you more loving than you want to [132:47] be [132:49] he has a plan to make [132:53] you [132:57] more loving [133:01] more filled with compassion [133:06] more sensitive to the needs around you [133:10] than you want to have [133:14] and i think some major things are going [133:15] to start shifting right after we leave [133:21] tomorrow and some glorious [133:25] glorious outpourings are coming [133:29] stay connected to this house stay [133:31] involved with what god's doing here [133:34] and this what is this south [133:38] eastern pa franklin county [133:41] area is that right it is being targeted [133:46] targeted by god [133:50] i shared earlier i had a we had a huge [133:52] rainbow [133:54] kiss us as we boarded the plane to come [133:56] here [133:58] and i told my wife we'll see another one [133:59] when we get here as a confirmation from [134:01] god [134:02] we have signs and wonders every place we [134:04] go don't we tiffany [134:06] tiffany's back at our book table she's [134:08] part of our ministry team [134:12] had church caught on fire in rhode [134:14] island [134:16] ah i mean fire fire not like [134:19] make believe pretend virtual stuff [134:22] spielberg nope [134:26] ask was it real fire i mean the church [134:28] really caught on fire when you [134:29] prophesied he was sending the coal [134:31] of fire to the church that day yeah you [134:34] can ask the 12 firemen to put it out [134:36] including the fire captain of providence [134:39] rhode island [134:43] i expect signs and wonders and i think [134:46] the sign that's going to make you wonder [134:47] is a change in your heart [134:50] and
