14:02 You've got about a minute or so to get your gossip in. We're going to start having church. See, there must be some good juicy stuff there. Still going at it hard back there. I'd like to read to you from Psalms 136. Listen what the Bible says. Oh, give thanks unto the Lord for he is good. For his mercy endureth forever. Verse two. Oh, give thanks unto the God of gods for his mercy endureth forever. Verse three, oh give thanks unto the Lord of lords, for his mercy endureth forever. Verse four, to him who alone doeth great wonders, for his mercy

14:48 endureth forever. Verse five, and to him that by wisdom had made the heavens, for his mercy endureth forever. To him that stretcheth out the earth above the waters, for him his mercy endureth forever. To him that make great lights, for his mercy endureth forever. The sun to rule by day, for his mercy ruleth forever. The moon and the stars to rule by night, for his mercy endureth forever. All down through this whole Psalms right here talks about the mercies of God endures forever. Before we got here, the mercies of God was still was operating and after we're gone, the mercies of God will operate. It's easy definition. And it is something that we should have gotten but we didn't get because of his mercy.

15:34 But it's made greater greater greater by far than what we can explain. It goes to one and it goes to the whole world and it goes to all creations. God's mercy. And that's the reason we're all sitting here tonight daring this evening is because of his mercy. His mercy. It has endured through the generations and it endured in my generation. And when this generation is gone, the mercy will still endure. If you would stand to our feet, let's prepare our heart for what God God has for you in this evening. Remember the little Virgin Mary when the angel was trying to explain what was going to happen. I'm sure she had no idea what was about to take place, but her words were, "Be it unto me according to thy

16:22 word." Aren't you glad you don't have to figure it out? You don't have to understand all of it. Just have a receptive heart. Father, again, we thank you for this evening. We thank you for this lovely congregation of people. We ask that you have your way. I ask that you look into each and every heart. What is it we have need this evening, Lord? I ask that you minister in that direction from the opening statement to the closing remarks. Lord, we ask this in your lovely name. Amen. Would you turn to somebody and say, "Wow, glad you're here this evening. Well, we have a praise duet tonight. Not a team per se, but duet. So, that's okay. Where two or more agree is touching one thing. It shall be. We're enough to be a team there. There. Yeah. We're a team. So,

17:07 uh, how many knows we need to praise God through good times, through bad times, in sickness, in health, in all things. We'll praise you, Lord, anywhere. Sometimes you got to dance through the darkness, sing through the fire, praise when it don't make sense. Sometimes you got to stare down the giant. Worship in the lion's. Sometimes you got to shout it from the mountain, louder in the valley. Trust

Give him praise in the highest. Praise. Give him praise. Let's give him praise in the highest. He is worthy. Yes, he is worthy of all of the praise. Sometimes you got to shout from the prison. Cry out to heaven. Shout till the door swings wide. Sometimes you got to stand on your shackle. Praise in the

Yes, we will. I don't know about you, but I just see God's goodness every day of my life. His goodness and mercy sure does follow me. And I I'm writing writing a song called

20:58 Goodness and Mercy is following me. So, I'm going to slow down and let them catch up because I I thank God everything. I was telling somebody the other day, I said, "Everything good in my life is because of him. It's because I chose to give him that life." And I praise him and I see it every day. The evidence of his goodness. Thank you, Father. Thank you, Lord. [Music] All throughout my history, your faithfulness has walked beside me. The winter storms made way for spring.

21:47 And every season from where I'm standing, I see the evidence of your goodness all over my life. All over my life. Thank you, Lord. Thank you. I see your promises in fulfillment all over my life. Help me remember when I Lord. Fear may come, the fear will leave in

22:32 his name. Thank you, Lord. You lead my heart to victory. [Music] You are my strength and you always will be. I see the evidence of your goodness all over my life. All over my life. I see your promises in fulfillment all over my life. All over my life. I see the cross, the empty grave. The

23:20 evidence is sinless. All my sins roll away because of you. Oh Jesus. I see the cross, the empty grave. The evidence is endless. All my sins wore away because of you, oh Jesus. Oh, I see the evidence of your goodness all over my life. All over my life. I see your promises in fulfillment

24:06 all over my life. All over my life. Oh, I see the evidence of your goodness all over my life. Can you say that? All over my life. I see your promises in fulfillment all over my life. All over my life. Oh, why should I fear? The evidence is here.

24:55 Oh, why should I fear? For the evidence is here. Thank you, Father. Worship with us on this last song. God is worthy of all the praise we can give him. And then we need to give him some more. He's worthy tonight. Worship with us. Worthy is the lamb who was slain.

25:43 Holy, holy is he. Sing a new song for him who sits on. Heaven's mercy seen. Worthy is the lamb who was slain. Holy, holy is he. [Music] Sing a new song to him who sits on

28:15 with all creation. I sing praise to the King of Kings. You are my everything and I will adore you. [Music] Oh Lord, I will adore you. [Music] Filled with wonder. All struck wonder at the mention of your name.

30:39 With all creation, I sing praise to the King of Kings. You are my everything and I will adore you. Do you adore him tonight? Give him praise. Give him honor. Give him glory. Well, would somebody give him a real hand clap of praise? Amen. Amen. He is so so worthy. What an honor to be with y'all tonight and to be with y'all tomorrow. Amen. I brought my wife with me today. Somebody asked, "Why did I park crooked because she told me how to drive all the way here." Amen. It's

31:24 amazing. I've gotten here before uh without her. Amen. Amen. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. But uh it is good to have Debbie. If y'all, how many of you if you've never seen Debbie, that's Debbie. That's my my wife. Amen. If you're wondering why somebody looks like me can get a woman looks like that, if you'll pay your tithe and quit cussing, God will bless you. Amen. Amen. What an honor to be here. Thank you, brother Greg, for allowing us to come. Uh we we've done a lot of stuff this summer. God just really, and I'll share a little bit about this in the morning, but but God really dealt with us. Amen. that that I I travel all over the nation teaching pastors and and teaching churches, church leaders, and evangelizing naturally and and now and and I I want to make sure the stuff I do works. Amen. And so this summer, uh God just really dealt with me to take the

32:10 summer and stay uh stay in my county and and and see if the ideas that he gave me still work. And they still do. Amen. Uh we we've called it a summer of service. Uh, I had a boy's camp on my farm. Seven young men. Amen. Teenagers got gave their life to Jesus Christ. Amen. And boy, we influenced a whole bunch, but seven gave their life to Jesus Christ. We had the at home uh senior living people come out and they they I told them I said, "Listen, I I went and bought 550 pound of uh of pound and a half channel cat and put in my pond. My pond's about as big as this sanctuary. I just put them in there and said, "I'm going to have them for the boys to camp, catch them." And I went and got the senior adults from the senior living

32:55 center and said, "I want y'all to come. Y'all catch as many fish as you want, and I'm going to clean them and cook them for you." That night, there's about 60 people up there. About 20 of them came out to fish. I didn't know they was going to catch 62 pound and a half catfish. And I didn't know that I had to have them cleaned and filleted and fried by 5:00 that afternoon. And they fish till 12:30. Amen. Amen. But uh but we got uh we got that done and it was just amazing. The newspaper come out and done a phenomenal uh phenomenal article about about what we're about what we do. We've been in we've we've spoke to five different rehabs and oh my goodness, we're training leaders uh in rehabs. When I get back Tuesday, uh we've got the people from the department of mental health uh all all their all their clients, they're they're coming out.

33:42 Amen. We're going to do the same thing uh same thing with them. So, it's been a summer of service and we've been going away and preaching on the on the weekend. So, we praise God for what he's done. We've been soul saved. He's been people uplifted. There was a man that passed away from that senior living last week. And and at his funeral, his daughter got up and said, "The last memory he had was catching a big catfish out of my out of my pond." And that family was just overwhelmed uh by that. Y'all, ministry still works. Can somebody help me? Amen. Uh people that say the day of church growth and the day no ministry still it still works. Amen. People don't care how much you know till they know how much you you care. Amen. So it's been an amazing summer and we still got a couple more events to do. So pray for us and that product table out

34:28 there. That's what pays for all that because guess what? Those campers, they can't pay no money. Those those 90 year old men that come out and fix, they done spent all their money. Can somebody help me? Amen. And so we have to raise the money somehow. That's the way we we do it. I want to preach to you tonight. Amen. On a thought that God's really really I'll probably stay down here mostly tonight cuz I hurt I hurt my knee. My wife made me move a refrigerator. And and how many of you know when you're 63, you ain't supposed to be moving refrigerators. We didn't just move it, Brother Greg. We had to tote it two stories up to the stop to the sbatical house. Amen. And and uh anyway. Amen. And and I thought I was going to have three people and only had one. So if I limp, just call me Chester on Gunsmoke. That's the way I walked. I want tonight. But but again, tonight, there's a message that God's given me

35:14 that I really believe the church needs to needs to pay attention to. I don't believe the church in America is living to every living up to what everything got Jesus paid for at Calvary. I really don't don't believe that. I believe that that other countries are other countries are we're seeing there's miracles happening all over all over this world. The dead are being raised. Uh blinded eyes are being opened. deaf ears are me. I stood in a baptismal pool in Africa that the pastor told me he now now he's got the evidence of it because his church they were pouring a slab that would set 10,000 people and and and this is in a place well you just can't do that over here the persecution of the church. No, over there they're killing a bodyguard with me. Amen. Debbie Debbie

36:00 was with me. We had to have a bodyguard. Amen. To walk with us. And it's not just a bodyguard. because I think I was important because I would get away and walk and talk to somebody and that bodyguard come to me and said, "Listen, Brother Moxley, you got to stay where I tell you to stay." And I looked at him, I said, "Buddy, listen. I'm a nobody from nowhere. Ain't nobody in Africa knows my name. They ain't going to be over here trying to kill me. I promise you." He said, "Let me show you something." He ripped his shirt open and he said, he had three bullet holes. He said, "I got these three bullet holes protecting people just like you. You're white, you're American, and you're a Christian, and you're a Pentecostal Christian. They hate you over over here. But the guy had 10,000, Amen. in his church. They were buying all the brothel, all the all the prostitute

36:46 houses in their in their county and turning them into orphanages. Amen. And it was just an amazing amazing thing. But I stood in his baptismal pool. He said, "People get saved and they come blind, they come crippled, they come deaf, they get they get saved. I baptize them. They go in the water crippled. They run out the water healed. And and and he just had testimonies everywhere. Persecution is like crazy. They had to take the offering out of the building with two guys to guns because they've been robbed so many times when they when they go when they go outside. Amen. So what am I saying? What am I saying? It's happening everywhere else. And the church of God is reflecting that. We're up to 9 million members now, but eight of them is outside the United States of of America. Uh, we celebrated having a million members. Amen. We celebrated

37:33 that 30 years ago. And guess what? We still got a million members in the United States of of America. Debbie and I always go away on our on July the 17th. And we seek God for our vision. That's our son's birthday. We always go to Jacob Island. We get a room and we just go down and celebrate him. But we also use that time to pray for our upcoming vision, for the vision that we'll have for 2026 that God wants to use us in doing. And so in doing that, I did some research. I said, you know, God, in my county, my county is the Church of God County of South Georgia. Uh we got 12 Church of Gods in our county and 32,000 people is all we got in our county. And and when I pastored there, there's 10,000 in the city of Jessup. My goal was to run 10% the tithe off the city. And we done that. We got

38:19 up to right at a thousand people. We'd bump over a thousand on special occasions. The most we ever was about 800, but I've been gone 10 years. Matter of fact, this Sunday uh this Sunday was my last Sunday. Amen. At as a pastor, I started I started evangelizing 10 years ago. A and so so I just pulled the stats. I pulled the stats. I called the state office and said, "Give me the stats of of all the churches in Wayne County." That's my county. Y'all got a Wayne County just across the river, but Wayne County, Georgia. I said, "Give me the stats from 10 years ago, and give me the stats now. I want to see what what what what the church has done since uh and I not because I'm anything. I just want to see what happened in 10 years." And and and 10 years ago, we were averaging right at 1,400 people in

39:05 morning worship. That's all churches combined. Now, we average a thousand. And so, we have dropped off 300 and something people. We had,75. So, we have actually declined out of 12 churches. All the churches are good. All the churches are doing doing good. They got full-time pastors, got full-time staffs, and got nice buildings. And and two of them are in the top 10 churches in our in the state of South Georgia. And what am I trying to say? I'm trying to say something very, very, very simple here. The church is in a rapid decline in the United States of of America. Am I making sense here? And we're not we're not growing. And you say, "Well, well, we are." And I hope and I know I've been coming to church for all 10 years I've been evangelizing and I see different faces every every time that I I come. But what are we doing compared to 10 years ago? Are we really are we really

39:52 reaching our harvest? And here's the point. In my county, in my county when I was pastoring, uh I I called we got three funeral homes that I called I called the funeral homes and I said, "Tell me how many people you bury each year." 80% of my county or the county I pastored in, 80% of Wayne County is unchurched. And so, so they told me how many people's buried every year. And I took 80% of that. And and because if you don't love God, if you don't go to church, chances are you don't love him. Can somebody help me? Amen. If you're not willing, I told somebody the other day, if you won't come to his house on Sunday, what makes you think he's going to build you a house next to him? Amen. Amen. I mean, really, really, really, if you don't love him enough to come worship, I know people say, "Well, you ain't got to go to church to be a Christian." Show me in the Bible where

40:38 it says that. I I would like to take Sunday off one day and go deer hunting. Amen. Amen. But you show me in the Bible where it says you don't have to come to church on the Sabbath and worship. Matter of fact, it's one of the top 10. Well, we don't we don't practice that anymore. Yeah. Now, because of that, we don't practice thou shalt not commit adultery either. Amen. We don't practice thou shalt not have no other gods before me. We don't practice uh we don't practice don't lie. Amen. Amen. And so, what what am I what am I what am I saying? Amen. When I done that with the with the funeral homes, they the 80% of the amount of people that die in my county every year, average one per day. One per day. And I I made that drive me. One person a day dies and goes to hell in my county. We ain't got time for the

41:24 church not to grow. Can somebody help me? Amen. Because the church grows such as should be saved. He added to the church. So God, I pray that the church in America that we I'm a national evangelist, so I have to say things, but listen, I pray that the church in America gets to the place where we where we take benefit, full benefit of everything he paid for at Calvary. He didn't just pay for my salvation. He paid for my healing. By his stripes, I am healed. He took authority. They put a crown of thorns on his head. He drew blood from his feet to cover everywhere I've been and to show me everywhere I'm going. He had blood from his side and water representing the power of the Holy Spirit so that I could have power to tread on serpents and scorpions and over

42:10 all the power of the enemy and by nothing shall by any means hurt me. He had blood from his hands to show that he covered everything I done. Amen. And made a way for me to do everything I do now. Oh, he had blood from his face that I need never forget that he is the face of God. That he is the head of the church. Oh God, help me to take full advantage of the Calvary of of what happened at Calvary of the cross that I may just not come down to an altar and talk to a preacher and say, "I'm saved." And then go out and there's no change whatsoever. God, help me to be the Christian that you died for. Oh, you took a stripe just when you used to sing a song. When he was on the cross, I was

42:56 on his mind. He was thinking about me and he was thinking about you when he went to Calvary and he said, "I'm going to take a stripe for their healing. I'm going to drop a blood for their authority and their power on this earth that we are living in." I say, God, let the church arise and the enemies be scattered here in the United States of America. Somebody ought to give him a hand clap right there. Amen. Now, that being said, I began to pray, "Okay, God, where you taking us? Where you taking us? Where where do you want us to be?" And this is where he took me in the book of Ezekiel, chapter 22 and verse 30. I'm not going to ask you to stand up because I'm already preaching now. Amen. Amen. But Ezekiel chapter 22 and verse 30. Look what he says. He said, "I sought for a man." Now, he's not talking about a man, a a man gender.

43:45 He's talking about mankind. Are you still with me? He's looking for somebody. He's looking for somebody. I know I I I've known women that got in the gap from me many many of times and prayed for my healing and prayed for my direction. I wouldn't even be I wouldn't even be a preacher if it wasn't for a precious sister named Sister Granny Goss. Amen. That stood in the gap for for me. She was there the night I prayed through. She was there the night I got called to preach. She was there the day I left and started preaching from the little church in Guard Eye, Georgia because she stood in the gap for me. Am I making sense here? Amen. He wasn't talking about a man like a per He's talking about mankind. I look for somebody among them. I look for somebody among the people that should make up the

44:31 hedge that should stand in the gap before me for the land that I should not destroy it. But I found none. He said, "I was looking for somebody to get in that gap." Pray with me. Father, I love you. And God, I understand and realize how limited I am as a human being. And God is my knowledge. Oh Lord, these people in this congregation that have forgotten more than I'll ever know. And God, I pray and ask you, Lord, to use me tonight. How can they hear without a preacher? How can you preach less he be sent? And God, I know you've sent me. And here I am. Here we are. Here we are. And I pray that you preach through me tonight, God, in such a way that every one of us leave here better because we've been in the presence of one mightier than I am. In the lovely name

45:18 of Jesus, I pray. Amen and amen. Would you give the Lord one more hand clap of praise? Just one more hand clap of praise. Now, when he said, "I look for somebody to stand in the gap." I could There's a lot of scriptures I could back up with that. He said, "If my people which are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and turn from their wicked ways, I'll hear from heaven and I'll heal their land." He said in the scriptures, I'm I'm looking. He said, "If judgment must begin in the house of the the Lord." Amen. He said he said that. And so God, you're talking to us. There's a place you want us to be. But I got to really seeking him, y'all. What is that gap? What is that gap that you want me want me to get into? Amen. And this is what the Lord showed me and I hope it makes sense. Amen. To you

46:05 tonight. I I I go to second Corinthians. Look in second Corinthians with me. Paul is writing this. Now, I believe that Paul was writing this about himself because he dates it. He dates it. And if you go back the 14 years, I believe it is. You go back the years that it was dated, Paul, that's when Paul was beaten. He was stoned and left for dead and taken out to the edge of the city and dumped out to be uh to be left for dogs or buzzards I reckon uh out in the So it's about that time and so I believe Paul is talking about himself but he's talking about himself from the third party. Am I making am I making sense so far? And look what he said. I knew a man and I believe that man was Paul even though Paul is writing this letter to

46:50 the Corinth church. I knew him I knew a man in Christ about 14 years ago. Whether he was in the body or not, I cannot tell. Whether he was out of the body, I cannot tell. God knows. He said, "Whether he was alive or dead, I don't know." Such a one was caught up into the third heaven. Was caught up in the third heaven. Now, you got to see this. And I know a man, such a man, whether in the body or out of the body, I cannot tell. But God knoweth. Amen. and how that he was caught up into paradise, the third heaven. He was caught into paradise and heard unspeakable words that it's not even lawful for a man to utter. Paul was saying he went to the third heaven and he saw things and he heard things that it ain't even lawful to talk about on

47:36 this earth. I believe it was the third heaven was the heaven that we strive to be at that where we're heading to go to. Why do I believe that? Because he says eyes have not seen nor ears have heard. Amen. the things that is laid up laid up for us in that place he's gone to prepare. He told us in the book of John, "Behold, let not your heart be troubled. You believe in God, believe also in me. In my father's house are many mansions. If it were not so, I would have told you. I want to go and prepare a place for you. And if I go to prepare a place for you, I'm going to come again and receive you that where I am, you may be also." I'm glad I'm going to heaven. Anybody here? Gladness is a place that we go that we don't grieve. When one of our loved ones die, it hurts. When one

48:22 of our loved ones die, oh, it's bad. Oh, but listen, we don't grieve like one that has no hope. Because if that loved one knew Jesus Christ, they're in a place where the streets are made out of gold. Where the walls are made out of jasper, where there's no light, there's no there's no darkness nor shadow there. There's no need for a sun or a moon because Jesus will be there. His glory, his light shall outshine them all. Amen. There's no more sickness. There's no more pain. There's no more death. There's no more devils to fight. That's the place where we headed. That's the third heaven. I I got to ask you to do this if you really believe in heaven. Would you just give him a a hand clap of thanks for heaven? Amen. But now you got to see this. He said

49:07 there's a third a third heaven. Do you mind helping me preach a little bit? You don't mind? You sing good. Would you stand right here if you don't mind? I'm gonna let you be God in the third heaven. Okay. You're you're you're God. Amen. Okay. Amen. I gotta have you preach for me. Come over here with me. Right over here. Come over here if you don't mind. Amen. Now, I want you to stand here and face that way, too. Now, the Bible tells me that he was caught up into the heaven, the third heaven. And the Bible tells me, Amen. and and and and well, just my natural tells me that we're living when we walk out this out this church tonight, it probably won't be dark yet, but if you walk outside and look up, you'll see the stars and the moon. That's the first heaven. That's the heaven that we can see. So, I know there's a first heaven. And I know because scripture tells me that there's

49:54 a third heaven. So, if there's a first and a third, there has to be a second. Are you still with me? Amen. There has to be a second. And I believe now I hope you'll follow me the way I go here tonight. But I believe second heaven is a spiritual place that God wants us to go. That is the gap between the first heaven and the third heaven. Because you see whenever before before man sinned, God would come down, amen, from the heavens. Amen. And he would commune with man every day in the cool of the day. He would come down. But when man sinned, oh, man was taken outside of the garden. And now there was a separation. There was a gap between man and God. I hope

50:41 I'm making sense. Oh, for centuries. Amen. They they they satisfied that gap by bringing lambs and bringing doves and bringing bringing sacrifices to God uh on that one day a month, on that day of atonement to to fill in that gap. That wasn't working with the flip. And so Jesus Christ, the only begotten son of the father, he came down and hung on the cross in the middle to represent that he was standing in the gap for mankind. There's no way to get to him, get to God except we go through the gap of Jesus Christ as he stood at Calvary as he hung at Calvary on the cross. But Jesus went away. Jesus went away. And this is what he said. He said, "It's important. It's

51:27 expedient for you. It's most important for you that I go away. Cuz if I go not away, the comforter will not come. But if I go, I will send you the Holy Ghost. Amen. And the works that I do, you'll do more than these because I go to the Father. So when Jesus went to the third heaven, he came down to the first heaven. He fought the battle on the cross in the second heaven. And now he's went to the third heaven cuz the Bible said he forever living in the third heaven. He stands at the beside our God and he makes intercession for us every single He's praying for me right now while I'm preaching for you. He's praying for you right now while you're

52:12 listening to me. So there's a gap here. There's a gap here. And who's filling that gap? Well, if the church don't fill it, Satan does. Let me show you what I'm talking about. Let's get to that next scripture in the book of Ephesians. as I think it is. No, I gave you the wrong scripture. Go to Ephesians chapter 2, if you don't mind. Let me get up here because I gave you I got those. No, I didn't. I gave you the right scripture. The only mistake I made is thinking I made a mistake. Amen. Amen. He said, "Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might." Now, look what he says. Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the, you know, ws means tricks. The devil's tricky. I'm gonna take this

52:57 coat off. I didn't bring but one, so I got to wear it tomorrow. Amen. Amen. Debbie said, "You didn't bring that other coat." Well, no, you didn't tell me to. Amen. Amen. But she said, "Yeah, I did." Now I got to go home and write a hundred times. She told me to write. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. But but but wows means trick. You don't think the devil's tricky? Oh, has everybody ever been tricked by the devil? Oh, I've been tricked by him. And I I look around at this world that we're living in. He He'll trick people into that. They'll be a boy and he'll trick them into thinking they girls. Are you still with me? That ain't That ain't man that done that. That ain't man that done that. That ain't That ain't No, he he'll he'll trick them into believing, oh, you're gay. You can't You got to No, no, that's a trick of the enemy. You You can't live. I I've seen

53:42 him trick people. I've seen people that so hooked on cigarettes they couldn't go a day without them, but get sick and get put in the hospital and go three weeks without them. Are you still with me? But when they get out, they got to have one because they can't go without them. People I can't get I can't do without them drugs, pastor. I try to get off them drugs. They get arrested and go to jail for 30 days and they don't have a they don't have none. You still with me? Amen. And so he tricks us into believing. He is he'll blind the minds of them. He'll blind the mind. And if you think it, the Bible says the way you think, that's the way you are. I need three people to help me preach tonight. Amen. And so he's tricky. He said, "Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the tricks of the enemy. For we wrestle

54:28 not against flesh and blood." Are you Are you Did you hear that? Uh me and you ain't fighting each other. We might disagree, but we ain't fight. It ain't about me and you fighting. He said, "We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. If the third heaven is above the first heaven, then the second heaven must be that you got to go. And the enem is here in the second heaven, standing in the gap." Now, hear me. Hear me close. Hear me close. I believe this is a spiritual place that I'm talking about tonight. And the devil's got here. And when he's here, he can stop things.

55:13 I'm going to show you a scripture where you'll I know if you watch TBN, they'll tell you that ain't nothing can stop the the the the money that's coming to you from heaven. Amen. And all this kind of stuff. But that if that devil gets to hear in your life, if he gets to hear in your family, if he gets to hear in your in your church, in your mind, then he can stop things from getting from the first heaven to the second heaven. And he or through the third heaven, and he can stop things from getting from the third heaven to the first heaven. By his stripes, we were healed. When's the last time you seen a miracle, and somebody got got healed? Oh, in my name, you'll cast out devils. When's the last time you seen a devil, a devil cast out? Am I making sense here? Amen. So, if the devil takes control of the gap, then he

56:00 can stop things from coming from there to him. And he can stop things from coming from there to him. I hope I'm making sense here. Give me Bible. I'm glad you asked me. First of all, let's look at what he stops an example of him stopping things from coming from the first heaven to the third heaven. Go with me the book of Jude. I hope I gave you that next scripture that chapter J first chapter of Jude verse 9 there's only one chapter in Jude but look what he says Michael the archangel when contending with the who contending with the the devil. Oh my goodness. Now I know you're a spirit lady. Come up here and help me just a second. I know you're spiritfilled.

56:46 Amen. Come up here just a sec. You ain't gonna be mad at me if I call you a devil. Amen. But I got ladies up here, so I'm going to use you because she said I've been called to work. Stand right here. So, so, so yet Michael, I'm going to be the angel cuz I got I got the microphone. Okay. Amen. Michael the archangel when contend he was sent from the third heaven. Am I making sense? He was sent from the third heaven to get the body of Moses. Remember, Moses died and was buried. And we know God had to have his body. reply because the man of transfiguration was going to come and he was going to send Moses and Elijah back down. He already had Elijah's body because Elijah was caught up and he wanted to show us the power of the of the of the rapture because he sent he

57:33 sent Elijah the saint that didn't go by the grave and Moses the saint that died and went by the grave and there with Jesus in his glorified body. That's the perfect picture of the rapture. The dead saints called up, the living saints called up. That's the perfect picture. And so he had to have the body of Moses. And so God sent Michael. Michael, I'm Michael. God sent Michael. Go get me the body of Moses. And listen, he did not when he was sent to get the body of Moses. Amen. Now, the body of Moses, Stay right here. Stay right here. The body of Moses is in the first heaven. Are you still with me? The body of Moses is in the first heaven. And so, Michael was sent to here to get the body of Moses. But before he got to the body of There you go. Before he You got to spot

58:19 me from that way. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. She's blocking me from the wrong way. Amen. Amen. She's getting this message. Yeah. Michael the Archangel when contending with the devil. Contended means he had to fight. Are you still with me? He was coming to get something from earth or from the first heaven to the third heaven. But God said, "No." or the devil said, "No, I ain't going to let I'm not going to let you get the body of Moses, which is in the first heaven, and bring it to the third heaven." The devil's in the gap, and he's stopping things from getting from there to him. Why is it easier to make a boat payment than it is to pay your tithe? Why is you'll make sure your taxes are paid, but you'll let the tithe slide? Why is it you will get to work on in the

59:04 morning at 5:00 but 8:00 is too early to come to prayer meeting on Sunday morning? Why is it because he's trying? Why is it so easy to holler at a baseball game? And I do that. Amen. But it's so hard to worship in in the church. Why is it so much easier to talk about politics to your workers than it is to tell them about Jesus Christ? Because there's a devil and he don't want no treasures from earth laid up in heaven. So he'll stop everything he can from getting from you, amen, to to God. That's the reason he'll send sin. He'll send temptation. He'll send persecution. He'll send fiery darts. He'll do everything he can to stop what you've got that needs to be in heaven from getting there. But look what happened. Michael, Michael the Archangel, when he

59:50 was fighting with the devil, he's fighting with the devil, contending with the devil, he disputed about the body of Moses. He didn't bring against him a ra accusation. He didn't sit there and argue with him. He didn't sit there and call him name. He just looked at him and said, "The Lord rebuked thee." And then he went on down and he got the body of Moses. But the fact of the matter is the angel had to fight the devil before he could get here. Now, let's turn it the other way around. Could the one standing in the gap keep things from the third heaven from getting to the first heaven? Well, let's just read your Bible. Everybody remembers when we used to everybody had the Daniel fast. Well, Daniel chapter 2, I mean Daniel

1:00:36 chapter 10 verse two. Daniel in those days I Daniel's talking. I was mourning for three full weeks. That's where we get the 21-day Daniel fast. Now, I quit doing that at my church when I pastored because I couldn't get nothing done. People was calling me all day long. When you running around thousand people and you call, you declare a Daniel fast. Every restaurant in town hates you. A couple of them called me and said, "We have made Daniel fast. Can you keep sending your people here? We got a Daniel fast, but they can't charge you. They can't charge you as much for a a bowl of soup as they can for a a piece of steak. Can somebody help me?" Amen. And so, matter of fact, I had one one owner tell me, he says, "Listen, I'm going to open me up a church." Well, they won't have that Daniel fast. Amen. I'm going to show you how it feels to be

1:01:22 the a restaurant in town and 10% of the counties down there. Amen. And can't eat nothing but lettuce. Amen. I'm Let's keep going. Amen. Amen. So, D, I quit doing it because Daniel, people would call me all day long. Oh, pastor, can I eat an egg? It comes from a chicken. Can I drink milk? It comes from a cow. I finally got up one Sunday and I said, "Listen, the Daniel fast, he didn't eat bread and he didn't eat meat. Are you still with me?" And if you really want to go the full Daniel fast, he didn't take a bath for 21 days. Are you with me? And so he said, "I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth. Neither did I anoint that means bath. I neither did I wash myself anoint myself at all until three full weeks were fulfilled." He fasted for 21 days.

1:02:09 He had asked God for something. Amen. Am I making sense? Am I still in? Look at your neighbor. Say, "Don't fall out the hearse." He's going somewhere with this. He had asked God for something from the third heaven. And for 21 days, he was in the first heaven waiting on what he had asked God for. Now, skip down to verse 10 of Daniel chapter chapter 10. down to verse 12. I'm sorry. Then said he, when the angel finally got to Daniel, God said, "Okay, go. Go with the answer. Send this from the third heaven to the first heaven." And Dan and the angel was on the way. The angel was on the way. Then said he unto me, "Fear not, Daniel." When he

1:02:56 finally got there, he said, "From the first day, from the first day that thou just set thine heart to understand and to chasen thyself before God, your words were heard, and I was I was coming. I was sent from the third heaven to the first heaven to bring you the word." Does that make sense? But look what he says in verse 13. But the prince of the kingdom of Persia, the enemy that hates God's people, that's Iran now. Persia is Iran now. And they hate Israel, God's people. Well, guess who's the leader of that? The enemy himself. He said, "But the prince of the kingdom of Persia." Where was he at? He was in the gap. The prince

1:03:42 of the Persian, the prince of the kingdom of Persia withtood me. He fought me. Just Just fight me a little bit. He fought me. Amen. He fought me for 20 days. I had to get Michael. I had to get Michael. Oh my goodness. I had to get Michael, one of the chief princes, to come help me. I remained there with the king. I stayed there fighting, but I had to send and get. I had to send and get. You see, the devil ain't nothing but a fallen angel. Are you with me? He was an angel. But guess what? I I I I I I heard this today and it just kind of hit me like a on the way here and and and we were made a little

1:04:28 lower than the angels. That's what your Bible says. So that means the angels are higher than we are. So they're more powerful than we are. I do not know a man, and I grew up watching John Wayne and Clint Eastwood, but I don't know a man that could whip and kill 185,000 soldiers in one night by theirself with nothing but a sword. show you where an angel done that. John Wayne couldn't have done that. He probably could have killed a h 100red thousand, but no. Anyway, Clint East would have probably could have got close. Amen. Amen. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. But listen, he he called and the Bible says that the devil took a third of the angels with him. And a third of the angels I had my wife, I lean over, we wasn't playing on the phone. I just got this idea while I was

1:05:14 up here. I said, "H how many stars are they?" She's looked it up on the on the on the thing there. And and we got there's 200 billion trillion. I don't even know how many zeros that is. 200 billion trillion stars and the devil took a third of them. So that's a little less than 70 billion trillion angels. Bible said the angels are like the stars in heaven. Se a little less. If it was 21, if it was 21, 100 or if it was 200, well, I don't know. I don't know. A third of 200 is about 70. Amen. Amen. So, right at 70 billion trillion angels working for the devil

1:06:00 and they looking so hard to get in the gap between the first heaven and the third heaven. So, Michael called. He called for Michael. He called he with stood him 20 days and he called for Michael one of the chief princes and came to help me and he remained there I remain there with the king of Persia let's keep going verse 14 now I've come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days for yet the vision is for many days in other words amen he he got we were sent from the god from the third heaven with Daniel's answer from the first heaven but he had to fight the king of Persia the king the the prince of Persia Amen. For 20 days, uh, it held up what God had sent from heaven. For 20 days, it was

1:06:48 held up. Am I making sense here? And it didn't get I wonder how many Oh, we know by his stripes, we are healed. How many of us are walking around with a crippled knee? Amen. And he's already healed us. I'm hoping I'm making I hope I'm making sense. He He He He sent deliverance. But how many of us have children that are bound by things that we can't seem to get them get them loose from? He He done all these things. Amen. But yet somehow or another, they're not getting to us. I believe it's because of who is in the gap. Amen. So what are we going to do about it? Brother Moxley, I think I showed you how the enemy can get to the gap. And I believe the evidence shows here in America where the gap is filled by the enemy. If you're still with me, just give me a quick Presbyterian uh

1:07:35 shout and nod your head. I believe the enemy's got there, y'all. We're we're we're debating we're debating on whether a boy could play girl sports. We're debating we've legalized drugs. We've legalized marijuana. Are you still in the building in our in our country? Marijuana is a gateway drug. I don't care who tells you any different. I built two drug rehabs. I've preached to five different rehab clients this this summer of service. And every one of them will tell you it started with marijuana. It started, it's a gateway drug. Am I making sense here? We're arguing about things you can't believe nobody. You can't believe a single person. You can't believe him. And now they got AI and they'll make people say stuff that ain't true. I got a video on my phone and I

1:08:21 sent it to some of my preacher friends. Amen. Just as a joke. It was Donald Trump when he got first elected. It was Donald Trump on a video and this is what he said. He said, "I was going to make Pastor George Moxley the chaplain of the White House, but he preaches too long." Amen. Amen. And I sent that to some of the preacher friends I had. Did you know several of them to called me back and said, "I'm ticked off. You know that he should have you up there." They thought it was real. They actually thought it was real because that's what AI is doing. Now, I need to tell you that the Bible tells me that in the last days, he would deceive many, even the very elect. God, help me to understand. I don't believe anybody anymore. Am I making sense? Amen. And you turn on the television, listen to preachers, you'll

1:09:07 see them water down the gospel in so many ways just so they could get to the commercial where you've got to send them some money. Oh, God, help us. Help me to never get to the place where I have to oh where I where oh oh my God am I making sense here? Amen. And so here we are living in our country. I worry about our children when they get old enough when they take our place. Oh, George Jones sung a sung a song years ago. Who's going to fill their shoe? Who's going to fill the shoes of Ray eight shoes? Who's going to fill the shoes of TLI? Who's going to fill the shoes of the church? The church is declining. People don't think church. Who's going to fill the shoes of the people that still touch heaven with their fasting and prayers and their and their worship? Who's going to fill their shoes? God

1:09:53 help us to understand my my six-year-old. Amen. I'll take them to school. When even when my youngest one was six, I I when I'm home, I take the boys uh to school and my grandbs. I got three grand. And I take them to school and one of them asked me, "No, no, they're just kids." "Papa, what does it mean to be gay? Why would they say that? Why would they ask me that? Why? That's what they That's what they hear. That's what they they hear. That's what they hear. Oh, God. That's what they're hearing at our school. What am I I'm I'm getting crossways here because the enemy is stopping. Am I making sense? H why do we have the most biblical illiterate generation that's ever lived in the

1:10:40 United States of America alive right now? He's stopping. Uh oh, we can't have Sunday school, nobody comes. Can't have Sunday night, nobody comes. I can remember there was an evangelist named Billy Swain. He was the most popular evangelist in South Georgia. And I can remember 35 years ago, well about 33 years ago because right after I got called to preach, I went to hear him preach a revival and he got to preaching about Sunday morning Christians and how you couldn't make it to heaven if you were a Sunday morning Christian. And now we build most of our churches for just Sunday morning Christians. I can take you to multi-million dollar buildings and they're only open on Sunday morning. 7-Eleven wouldn't do that.

1:11:26 Walmart wouldn't do that. The liquor store down the corner, they have lobbyed and got where they can sell alcohol on Sundays in my county so they can stay open. But the church, am I making sense? Why? I believe it's because God's got all this he's trying to send and the enemy is stopping it and hindering it. So how that's the reason that's the reason he he's got us to stand here. I'm looking for somebody to stand in the gap because if you don't fill if I don't fill the if the church don't fill the gap then the enemy will. If they don't get Jesus, they'll try drugs. Everybody has a void in their life. It's a gap. And if you don't fill it up with

1:12:13 God, you'll fill it up with Am I preaching okay? I hope I'm preaching all right. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. She She can't say no up here. Amen. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. So, what is it about? Why do you think the devil does everything he can to keep you from the gap or keep us from the gap? Did you know the Bible says, "Why is it why are we so tempted with sin?" Why are we Why are we I go to churches all over this country and I get asked all the time about what we could get away with and still go to heaven. I get how much you got to drink to be a drunker. Is it really a sin to smoke? I I I I'm living with my girlfriend, but but she ain't got divorce yet because we can't afford it.

1:13:00 That's adultery. Are you still with me? That That's adultery. I I know senior citizens and they'll shack up because oh, if I get married, I'll lose my check. It was bought with a price and it wasn't a blood. It was a social security check. I can't live without it. Your father owns the cattle on a thousand hills. The Bible said he owns all the silver and all the gold and he'll get it from the third heaven to you in the first heaven if you'll get to the gap. So why does he try to get you? Because he knows. He knows. Look at John 9:31. I think I'll give you that scripture. John 9:31. He said, "We know. We know." Oh,

1:13:45 I've skipped one, but let's let's back up. Give me John 9:31 first if you can. I've given them to him. He's going to be mad at me because I usually go right down. Look at what he says now. We know. We know this. We know it. We know that God don't hear sinners. But yet 90% of the people in church who get up, well, I'm just a sinner saved by grace. Well, then God ain't hearing you. Well, everybody sins every day. Well, God ain't hearing you. Billy Graham said, "It is yet to be seen." And Billy Graham was probably the greatest evangelist of our lifetime. Billy Graham said, "It is yet to be seen what could happen if one man would

1:14:31 completely sell out to God." He said, "We know that God hears not sinners, but if anybody but if anybody, not just a preacher, if anybody will be a worshshiper of God and does his will, him he'll hear." So what the devil knows if I can get them sinning, they can't never get to the gap because he won't hear them from the third heaven. And if I can, but he also knows, but if they start worshiping, so I'm going to do everything in my

1:15:17 power to keep them from worshiping. I'm going to do everything in my power to mess up their worship. I'm going to get the older ones liking the hymns and the younger ones liking them 7-Eleven songs and they ain't never going to be able to come together. You know the 7-Eleven songs, they got seven words you sing 11 times. Amen. Amen. I'm going to make worship. I'm gonna make worship. Do you know there's more fights in churches over worship than anything else I know? I know churches. There was a theworth Methodist church in Jessup. They started having two services, one contemporary and one for tradition because the people neither could the two two swap. Guess what? They sold the Worth church got a church. They sold the Edworth

1:16:03 Methodist Church the other day to another group because they had to shut down. There was no people left. So, so if anybody will be a worshshiper, see, you can't get all proud up and think you belong in the gap and be in the gap. If anybody be a worshshiper of God and does I talked about Granny Goss while ago. Sister Goss was probably the most godly woman I ever met. I mean, she she lived in in Odum, Georgia. The church that I got saved in was in Guard Eye and and that's about what Debbie 25 miles 20 miles maybe from ODM to to Gardy. But that's the church that she was a part of. Her family moved around when she got older and she wasn't

1:16:50 going to give up on her church. So she she never missed a service period. But she could she never learn how to drive. and and and and and and my job as a new Christian, newly called to preach, the pastor appointed me that my job was to take Sister Goss home. I wasn't supposed to go get her, but I I was supposed to make sure she got home. And nine time probably 50% of the time she would tell me, "Brother George, she talked with a lisp. Brother George. Then it was going to be hard on me this morning, Sunday morning. Nobody would take me. And so I got up. I pulled up in her house one day, take her home. She said, "See that trash can?" I said, "I see that trash can." She was she would

1:17:36 go check her mail. She kept her trash can by the mailbox and she'd go through the m if there was something in that mail that wasn't godly, she put it in that trash can right quick. Are you with me? She wouldn't she wouldn't allow the Sears robot catalog come because it had pictures of women in bras. Are you still with me? Amen. And she'd throw it in the in that in that trash can. She said, "You see that trash can right there?" She said, "A lot of times I have nobody to take me to church. And so I get up and start walking because I got to go to church 25 miles now. 20 miles I'd get up." She said, "But I've never made it past the trash can that God didn't send somebody by to pick me up." And I would take her home. Well, on the

1:18:21 way home, I would hear about all the miracles. She literally she prayed for somebody and they got up from the dead. They were dead and and they got up. She told me about how they used to I'm making this sermon longer than I should. She told me about how how her husband when she got saved, they grew tobaca and she said, "We can't grow tobaca because the church I'm at is against smoking and we can't if we grow tobaca, we just can't we can't do that." Are you still now? I know I go to churches with ashtrays on the porch, but back then we couldn't we couldn't do that. Amen. And so she said, her husband said, "Well, what we how we going to make a living?" They live right on Tank Plant Road then, which was a dead end road. And she said, "How we going?" Her husband, "How we going to make a living if I don't grow tobaca? We're going to grow vegetables.

1:19:07 Truck farm." God spoke to me. We got the truck farm. So they truck farm and they made a bunch of potatoes and vegetables and all this stuff and but they didn't figure something into the calculation. How they going to get them because they didn't have no vehicle. How they going to take them where people will find them because they lived on a dead end road. So she went in and prayed. They had all these vegetable. God said just put them on the porch. Put them on the porch. Nobody goes down. It's a dead end road. So there ain't nobody just driving by thinking I think I ought to buy some squash. No. One day there was a guy coming a big long shiny Cadillac and pulled up. He had gotten wrong directions and went down the wrong road and he walked up to get directions from from them and they told him where he was at and he said, "I noticed all

1:19:52 these vegetables, y'all." Yeah, we we and he owned a big grocery chain and he bought every g every vegetable they made until they quit farming. Do we really believe? She said one one day a fire started and down down in where we at? We have you have a broom sades. I don't know if y'all got that up here in Kentucky. Probably not because y'all got all these hails and hollers, but but broom sades. You strike them actually. It'll burn. It'll burn. It'll burn. And she said there was a broomage fire coming to the house that they lived in and said, "I got out and laid down. I got out and laid down. I laid down in the in in the in the broomage and I prayed till God told me it was going to be all right. Got up. All the people come running down there thinking their house was going to be destroyed to help the Gos family. Ran

1:20:38 out there and where her body imprint was, that's as far as the fire went. Stop. I'd hear all these stories as I would take Sister Goss home. I would hear all all these stories. She wouldn't eat in church because she read that in the scripture. It said, "If any man's hungry, they'd meet at the house." So if we had a social, she'd fix a plate and take it home. But she wouldn't eat it at the church. She was just that was she wouldn't condemn nobody for doing it but but she wasn't going to do it. Are you with me? Amen. One night when I'm making a story way longer than I should. One night we we was at the church and we was having a a time. I mean we was having a prayer time and the Holy Ghost fell out and the pastor called for a Jericho march around the church and we marched around the church seven times outside. It was just amazing how God was moving.

1:21:25 Well, when we all got through, when we all got through is in the church talking, fellowshipping, and the police come up. I was a leader in the church. I I wasn't a leader very long. I got saved. They immediately let me be a leader. But but but but this this police came in said he was wet down with sweat, bleeding from scri bushes hit him and all this kind of stuff, muddy. He said, "Y'all need to check your car. Everybody check your cars cuz we've had an escape convict. I've tricked him through the swamp. I've tracked him through the woods.
