Good morning, family. I'm excited to be with you all today. I have a special guest, Pastor Steve Czechalani and uh from Discover Church, and we're excited. We're going to interview him about some of the things that are happening and in and tribulation and things that are happening in the world right now with the Israeli war. And we're going to just ask him some questions, the hard stuff.
You know, he has a lot of wisdom on Bible prophecy and end time events. So, we're going to just kind of just pick his brain and where we are in the end times.
So, I'm excited that I have him as a special guest on our channel today. So, uh here we are.
Hey, Pastor Steve. So good to be with you, Brandon. You know, this morning the Lord said to me that um my servant Brandon is waiting for you.
So, my servant, he called you my servant. Just like he called John the Revelator, my servant.
Right. That's beautiful. We talked about that last time.
So, um a lot of technical difficulties and issues try to keep us apart, but we are together now. Praise the Lord. I'm excited. Yeah. Praise God.
We have some questions for you and um I'm I'm going to start off with this and start off with uh how long is this war going to last? That's what people are wanting to know. Is this going to be a short uh event that's going to maybe last for a couple of months or do you see this going on for like a um kind of like a major event that would take on maybe years like similar to the golf war or you know because we're kind of still in Iraq. Where do what do you think about that in Daniel chapter nine? You know, talking about the ministry of the prophet.
So, how does a prophet operate? Is it just people think it's kind of airy fairy like we're we're praying and then suddenly we're going to be dropped a date, you know, or a timeline. And sometimes you get that. I mean, it's very rare. And Daniel chapter 9 actually is one of those rare moments where you get the timeline calculated to the exact day of Jesus's first coming.
My question is how did it start? Right? And it actually started with him Daniel studying the word of God and he says so.
So it's important that all prophets speaking correctly for the Lord needs uh to go back to the Bible. So it says here in Daniel 9:1 in the first year of Darius the son of Hasseris of the seed of the Metes which was made king over the realm of the Caldanss. In the first year of his reign, I Daniel understood by what? By prayer, by a revelation of the Lord. It says, I understood by books the number of the years whereof the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah the prophet that he would accomplish 70 years in the desolations of Jerusalem.
So this whole big revelation that he's about to get starts off with him studying books and he means of course Bible books and he doesn't explain all the books because he said plural but he says specifically Jeremiah said we're going to be held captive deported and then held captive in Babylon for 70 years. So I got that now and I'm going to act on that by going to pray.
So a prophet is first a student of the word, a teacher of the word. And then secondly, he's a prayer, you know, he's a prayer or a prayer warrior. Yeah. And that's what people need to understand when they're asking, okay, what's the timeline? We don't just go and make up a timeline.
We have to go and study the books, the biblical books. And what my studies have shown is that we are in pre-tribulation and that some people need to correct their assumptions and theology that they've heard that's 30, 40, 50 years old, but now we have more light. Revelation 6 representing the seals are not tribulation seals. That doesn't mean the tribulation has started. It doesn't mean we missed the rapture.
It means they're pre-tribulation. And God emphasized this so much. Mhm.
So the first horse is the white horse. It's Gallup. We can now pinpoint, you know, exactly from January 2000 to June 2023 when basically, you know, most of the world, I think all of the world now has opened up. Nobody's got a health emergency. If they do, it's it's a bit, you know, scoffed at.
People aren't keeping it anymore. Airplanes and airlines are not testing you for COVID before you get on the flights. And that's very exact. Three and a half years. Mhm.
So, we're going to ask the question, how long do we have in this next war? I would say whether it's this war, escalation of this war, a you know, a spreading of the war, or some kind of war, it's going to last three and a half years.
So, that would end. Yeah. Three and a half years. Three and a half years from when you're saying three and a half years from June 2023, at which point we had boom the French uh riots and again it sparked by Muslims. Mhm.
It was the killing at a traffic stop of a guy that was a known, you know, he had a criminal rap sheet and underage. He shouldn't have been driving, but they turned it into a religious war where they said, "Well, you know, white French um police killed a Muslim truck driver, right? They didn't say anything about his history and his he's a criminal basically, but then they use that to instigate Europewide, continentalwide riots, right?
So, it's a sign that the Red Horse has something to do with Islam. But then it spread to the fires of Maui. Something very strange because a great sword is mentioned in the Red Horse. A great sword. Oh, wow.
Back then they don't have um direct energy weapons. They wouldn't have such things like EMPs, right? Electromagnetic pulse bomb.
So all John could say was there was a great sword. Wow. We are exactly in the timeline and then we come to October 7 and we have this thing that took all of us by surprise but we know we're in the zone of the red horse.
So far the theory pans out. Now, the theory can be falsified. If we have in the next two and a half years just to perfect peace, then we're done. We're we're going to say we're not in the tri pre-tribulation signs. The horse is not galloping, but so far everything is working.
And I would remind you of your own revelation from God that lines up with this Revelation 6 that you heard about Saudi Arabia and you heard about the price of oil, right? Remember that?
Yes. When the Lord told me, he said, "When this happens," he said, "Oil will go over $200 a barrel and it will it will it will be a major event all around the world and people," he told me, he said, "People are going to become angry at Israel and in and about what's about to happen. It would be like a like I guess the word would be anti-semitic, anti-semitism, you know, like against the Jewish people." And so they were like blaming them because of what happens because I guess it's a retaliation from Israel doing something to uh another country in the Middle East. And I believe it be um uh Iran and Saudi Arabia and these people because I remember and even in this the Lord showed me that uh that the prince of Saudi Arabia was going to join forces with China and Russia and make secret deals. And um so I believe I believe all this is just going to keep escalating, you know.
Yeah. Well, there's news coming out right now just on that that you know their plan basically is to create the brick system to replace the US petro dollar and Saudi Arabia is the lynch pin of the US petro dollar system.
Right? The reason that America can be, if I may say, not so productive in manufacturing, right? Not an not really an economic powerhouse. We're just a bunch of spenders and consumers. How is that possible?
Because it's the one currency in the world that everybody has to use to buy petrol and other commodities. Usually other commodities like gold is denominated in US dollar.
So the US dollar has this unnatural privileged position that Saudi Arabia uh Brazil which has now turned very radically left. It went from conservative under Bolsinaro to now Lula who's a Marxist.
So the news today that I was reading in the morning was that Argentina looks like it's going to flip to the conservative side and the Marxists are freaking out because they want more nations to come into their oligarchy, their system. So you know you have to pick I guess your bad guy. It's not that American domination has produced world peace, but probably American being the superpower is better than um you know, China and uh communist Brazil and whoever else is going to join this brick system.
So, they're kind of losing grip of Argentina if the election, you know, goes through the way that the people want to vote. They want a populist man who's an economist, very well read. He totally dislikes communism. He says he won't even trade with China and Brazil because they're communist. Wow.
So we're we're actually winning in many fronts. We Christians are praying the now the right prayer. We're not just saying slap us one way, kill our baby, kill another baby. We're saying enough is enough.
But we have authority on the earth to exert Jesus's standards and his righteousness without becoming pheriseical and legalistic. Okay, that that part we've corrected.
Now we've swung so far to the grace part that we've lost touch of any sense of morality and justice, right? And we're kind of make making peace with the devil is what the body of Christ is doing. We're coming now to a balance where we got to learn biblical justice. That's really the main thing. You know, you're on online church with me.
That's the main thing that I keep drumming to every church member is get a hold of biblical justice. Understand what it's about.
So, um, back to Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia obviously wants to change the system. They're not going to have oil forever. They want to make profitable alliances with China. They're only thinking about money.
They're not thinking about morality and pro and prophecy. But all of it is going to end up fulfilling prophecy according to my timeline and my inter interpretation. It's not my timeline, but my interpretation of Revelation 6 is you've got another three years of the red horse.
Then exactly when that ends, we should see the black horse. What color is is black that the whole world has to consume? It's petrol.
So the black horse is indicating that something's going to happen to oil and it lines up with what God has shown you, Brandon. Wow. That Saudi Arabia is trying to disrupt or threaten America when it's weak. And I think it can do it when Biden is in. I don't think it can do it when Trump's in.
So, the process may start, but I would think that if you're trading and doing things like that, don't ever make financial decisions based on words of prophecy because God does not give us the exact timeline unless it's a Daniel 9 moment. And I think the Revelation 6 is very close to the Daniel 9 moment.
But money is going to be the last thing you're thinking about when there's global famine and people are, you know, so the black horse represents oil. It doesn't represent a global famine. They tie into each other because everything on earth, the price of every commodity is tied to the price of transportation.
So oil goes up, your food goes up. So if you're a globalist trying to make people starve and hungry and die, you don't have to go to every corn farmer, every wheat farmer, every barley farmer. You can attack a country like Ukraine, which is a major supplier of food. That's one way to make the price go up.
But all you have to do is just control the price of oil and you can lower or raise the price of everything that people depend on to live. And Trump understood that.
So that's why Trump said, I'm not going to deal with every industry. I can't do that as a one man, but I'm going to deal with OPEC. I'm going to deal with Saudi Arabia. I'm going to make sure that they produce enough oil and we are going to become energy independent ourselves as Americans.
And so you saw everybody's standard of living was higher because the price of everything was lower. He did that by just addressing oil. Biden is doing the opposite thing. And people who are supporting Biden, you just need to, you know, check your own bank account and bills and you can you can see the inflation is much higher than they're revealing. The official stats must not be accurate.
Yeah. Because people feel the pain. Oh yeah, for sure.
For sure. So they're tied in. To answer the question. The black horse has black as a symbol for you to know, hey, what are we talking about? What's God trying to tell us?
Oil is black. It's the blackest thing that that anybody has to deal with every single day. That's the thing we all deal with, but it's tied into the global famine because when food shortages come, it's going to be related to lack of transportation. Wow. Companies going out of business, um sea freight u you know, shipping business going out of business or stalling.
We saw a little bit of that, right? Didn't we see that at the beginning of Corona virus? Oh, for sure. That wasn't the fulfillment of the black horse. It's just a little taste.
We call that foreshadowing or types and shadow. Types and shadows are going on all the time.
But the fulfillment is very clear that plagues are going on all the time in epidemics all over the world. But corona virus was the fulfillment of a global pandemic with a corona which is the crown that was given in Latin. The crown that was given to the white horse is called corona. Wow. Isn't it amazing?
It's so precise. It's it's wow. It's amazing, you know. Um, so when would the green horse So the pel the chlor chlorophyll the chlorophyll horse the green chloros? Yeah.
And so people debate this. They haven't updated their esquetology in years and years and they want to debate us. Um, you need to go study first before you say it's called the pale horse in English.
But in Greek it's chloros. Chloros is green.
Right? There words in English that come from chloros like chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is the chemical that makes leaves green.
So, it's a green horse, right? And green is a is I mean, I don't want to give it all away right now because it these things become clearer and clearer as we move towards it.
But, it's very easy for me to imagine what the green horse is. It sounds it's I believe it's a plague and what I've seen prophetically what's coming is a major plague that kills 350 million people. Definitely a plague.
So the so the black horse happens first and then the so that would be a three and a half years and then we're going to see another three and a half years of some kind of a I believe uh for what I've seen prophetically as a three and a half years of a plague. So after that takes place do you see the rapture of the church coming anytime soon or do you feel that we are still quite a ways away from the rapture of the church? I think the ideal window is the anniversary of Jesus's resurrection because it's the type, right? It he's resurrected. 2,000 years later, we're resurrected. The dead in Christ are resurrected.
And we who are alive and remain get raptured. It would be a perfect fulfillment.
But God doesn't always have to keep our calendar. He's got his own calendar. We could have, you know, slight miscalculations, but we're really not far off. I think that we have a good 10 years to get our lives right. Stop sinning.
Start giving. Start going. Go on missions. Americans are the most blessed Christians in the world and yet the most spoiled Christians. If you've got, you know, anything, your standard of living in America far exceeds most of the world, right?
And as a Christian, we waste so much money in America building church after church that remain empty five days a week. I don't understand it. I don't get it. If you have that kind of resource, at least get yourself out and preach the gospel in Thailand. Come with me to Saudi Arabia.
Come and see. I'm going in February. Come and see. Go out to other nations. Get out of your get out of your comfort zone because you were blessed to be a blessing.
We don't say that glibly. You're blessed to be a blessing.
So, if you're not a blessing, the blessing is going to dry up. Your blessedness is going to dry up. And that's what I'm I fear for America is we're like spoiled children who have wasted our inheritance so much that we didn't get the gospel out to the world the way we should have and we just spent and consumed and lived in luxury and I can see why a lot of people say America could be Babylon. Although I don't hold that view. I think America still has a great future.
You do? Wow. Praise God.
Well, you're looking so you're so 10 years be 2033. So about that window is what you're believing. Do you think Hamas will be crushed and just completely destroyed?
Well, let me let me get to the Bible, okay, about Hamas because it's very interesting. There's a law of first mention in the Bible that when some of when a word appears for the first time, it has extreme prophetic significance for that time, but also prophetically, it's going to keep playing up. It's going to keep appearing.
So, did you know that Hamas appears in the book of Genesis? Wow.
No, I did not know that. Yeah. And people want to play like word games and linguistics with, you know, prophecy teachers and say, "Oh, no, you know, this word is in the wrong language." But God knows all the languages. And he knew in Hebrew that this word would be used in Arabic 2,000 years later.
So look at the first instance of the word Hamas. Okay, here it is. Genesis 6:1. The earth also was corrupt before God. The earth was filled with violence.
The word is kamas and the word earth is so. So it's a play on word. It has a double entandra. Earth in the Bible can mean the globe, the whole earth.
Okay. The whole planet or it can also mean the land of Israel.
So read this. The erets was filled with Hamas. That's Genesis 6:1. Wow. That's describing October 7, 2023.
And that was written 4,000 years ago. And the event was 5,000 years ago just before Noah's flood.
So what did Jesus say? As it was in the days of Noah. How was it in the days of Noah? It was filled with kamas. My gosh, that is amazing.
It's it's just all so perfect. I mean, you know, it you can't make this stuff up. It's just awesome. Wow. You know, from Genesis to Revelation, it's just all just wow.
That is so cool. Where is America at in Bible prophecy?
Well, America has such a special place, right? America's um a nation that was founded on religious freedom and I don't think God's going to give up on that and we must not give up on America. In fact, I believe that God uh sends me to America and I'm going, you know, from church to church. I've started doing it. Those of you who are pastors who are listening to me, I'm not far away.
You can get me to come and speak to your church. But he told me, God told me that I've come to be part of the third great awakening.
So I believe that God doesn't waste resources and time. I wouldn't be here uh coming to the United States just to tickle some ears.
No, there's a massive movement. I think we are winning. Just like I said, you know, Argentina's is turning over conservative. If they don't rig and steal the election, uh we're winning in that front. Roie Wade has been overturned.
We're winning on that front. The lemon test that all law laws are to be secular and pass a secular test in America that we've overturned that. We've won in that front. We're winning and winning and winning and we're winning under Joe Biden. Can you imagine this?
God didn't even need a Republican to be in office. He can still win. God is that powerful. He's a mighty God. Yeah.
So, we got to go back to the roots of America and realize that all the things that have happened were not they're not they're not um taking God by surprise when George Washington who people mis you know they misrepresent George Washington because there was a painting that looks like he's a Freemason by the way that painting is a recent painting he's not a Freemason he was invited like any president any uh important person I think to go to a Mason meeting or something like that he went sometime and he said, "No, I'm not a Mason." He believes Jesus. He believes the Bible.
Well, he was given prophecies about the nation, which is called the Republican. He never ever called it a democracy. They were afraid of the concept of democracy. They said, "No, we're a republic, right? A constitutional republic that protects the rights of minorities against the hordes of the majority and the whims of the majority." And he got three visions.
And he was told that America would go through certain crises. One of them was obviously the 1865 um civil war.
Okay. So he was told this. I'm going to read this.
Okay. Okay. Go ahead. This is uh a prophecy from George President George Washington about this nation. Americans need to know about this.
It's called the third peril. The scene instantly began to fade and dissolve. He's speaking.
Okay. He wrote this down. He took, you know, they all took prophecy very seriously. Can you imagine that? That's 250 years ago.
So, is this a vision, do you think, or is this is this or is this something? This is a vision that George Washington was given by the Lord and he wrote it now.
Okay. I at last saw nothing but the rising curling vapor I at first beheld. This also disappearing, I found myself once more gazing at the mysterious visitor who in the same voice I had heard before said, "Son of the Republic." So the angel calls him son of the republic. What you have seen is thus interpreted. Three great perils will come upon the republic.
The most fearful is the third passing which the whole world united shall not prevail against her. So the whole world will hate America and unite against America but will not prevail against her. Wow. Let every child of the republican learn to live for his God, his land, and the union. Wow.
We are to learn to live for God. We don't naturally know as a born again Christian, as a baby Christian going to church, we don't know how to live for God. There is a skill, there is a way, there is a training to live for God. To get up in the morning and not just go brush your teeth, but fall on your knees and say, "Hallelujah. Praise God.
Good morning, Heavenly Father. Good morning, Holy Spirit. I bless the name of Jesus.
Right. Let your knee fall on the ground before you go do anything. Bow to him.
Yes, there's a way to live for God, right? So, learn to live for his God and his land. A lot of Christians forgot this. We preserve the land. We're the salt of the earth.
So, for us to say we have no civic duty. We ignore voting. We have our vote doesn't count anyway. Is an absolute abdication of our rights and authority and our civic duties. None of the founding fathers believed in that.
None of the prophets believed in that. Some of them served in the highest political offices of their land. You can think of Joseph. You can think of Daniel and this is our destiny.
He said, "Again, I heard the mysteries, the mysterious voice saying, son of the republic, look and learn." At this the dark shadowy angel placed a trumpet to his mouth and blew three distinct blasts. And taking water from the ocean, he sprinkled it upon Europe, Asia, and Africa. Wow.
So there's an order to how things are going to unfold. So Europe, Asia, and then Africa. That's right.
Then my eyes beheld a fearful scene. From each of these countries arose thick black clouds that were joined into one. This is the globalist trend that we're seeing. Yeah. It starts in Europe because the Western powers, it's the Western oligarchs, it's the same colonizers doing it now with technology.
Wow. The same spirit that went butchering people all over Asia and Africa. They're now doing it through the IMF and debts and creating slaves through financial instruments. It's the same people.
So they said it starts in Europe. Who's going to grab it next? Asia will grab it. Asians love anything European, anything American. They just go for it.
And Africa's last. Africa will be the last to develop and become bond servants against slaves. They're going under slavery again to the IMF, World Bank, American institutions, European institutions. You know, they're the ones, the Americans, the Europeans are the ones that are saying, "You have to cut your carbon. You have to not grow certain foods." and then starve these people to death.
You have to buy this fertilizer from us. They're creating all these laws. This will be illegal. This will be illegal. It's the European powers that are dictating these things.
So he said, "Watch the black cloud arises from Europe first, but it's going to join into one with these other two continents." Right? And back then that's the whole world because they didn't know about Australia. They didn't know about America. That's the whole world joining.
Then my eyes beheld a fearful scene from each of these countries. Black clouds rose joined into one. And throughout this mass, three gleamed these three gleam a dark red light. Is that like the red horse? Wow.
By which I saw hordes of armed men. So this is Islamic now, isn't it? The hordes of our men who moving with the cloud marched by land and sailed by sea to America. Wow. That's the southern border.
That's the southern border. He saw that coming by sea, coming by land. Of course, he doesn't know the airplane. That is amazing. Which country was enveloped in the volume of the cloud.
So, this is the whole illegal immigration invasion through the Taliban and Afghanistan. Now, Biden's going to open the country to 1 million Hamas sympathizers. And I dimly saw these vast armies devastate the whole country and burn the villages and towns and cities that I beheld were springing up.
So that's sad it's going to happen. So he's saying they set everything on fire. Yeah.
Well, we've already been seeing that since um well since co for sure, you know, Black Lives Matter, Antifa, they were doing that while we were supposed to be locked down. So that's going to happen as my ears listen to the thundering of the cannon, clashing of the swords, and the shouts and cries of millions in Mortal Kombat. Millions in Mortal Kombat. That's why we have the second amendment. That's why I believe, you know, you want to buy gold, buy silver.
I think you should buy guns. Yeah. And ammunition. That was part of the word that the Lord gave me about the ammunition recently. And he told me, he said, uh, the ammunition was going to become very hard to get here pretty soon.
Yeah. So, we want to talk about that in online church. Inside online church, we can talk about who's gun expert, where to buy ammunition, things like that, because they're going to make it harder and harder.
I heard they're going to put like a,000% tax on AR-15s. Again, I heard the mysterious voice saying, "Son of the Republic, look and learn." When the voice had ceased, the dark shadowy angel placed his trumpet once more to his mouth and blew a long, fearful blast. Instantly a light as of a thousand suns shone down from above me and pierced and broke into fragments the dark cloud which enveloped America. At the same moment the angel upon whose head still shone the word union and who bore our national flag in one hand and a sword in the other. Wow.
Descended from the heavens attended by legions of white spirits. These immediately joined the inhabitants of America who I perceive were well nigh overcome but who immediately taking courage again closed up their broken ranks and renewed the battle. That's what we're here for. We're here to renew the spirit of courage. It's enough to be so we're so cowardly that we're not even willing to stand on what the Bible says less we offend someone less we get lose our job.
It's time to stop being cowards. The Bible says cowards are the first group that goes to hell. You know, they go to the lake of fire. It's the sin of not doing something out of fear. Cowardice is the sin of not doing something.
Wow. Because we're intimidated. All right. Wow.
So, God's called me to come to the United States to preach in your churches, pastors. Yes. Open it up. Don't be afraid anymore. We are on the winning side.
You don't worry about your 501c3. They cannot take that from you because you speak about morality in government. That is a biblical subject. You speak about biblical justice. You're not going to get in trouble for that.
So, we're going to get courageous again. Yeah. Bold. He says again, amid the fearful noise of the conflict, I heard the mysterious voice saying, "Son of the Republic, look and learn." As the voice ceased, the shadowy angel for the last time dipped water from the ocean, sprinkled it upon America, and instantly the dark cloud rolled back together with the armies it had brought, leaving the inhabitants of the land victorious. M then once more I beheld the villages and towns and cities springing up where I had last seen had seen them before while the bright angel planting the azour standard okay the blue standard he had brought in the midst of them cried with a loud voice while the stars remain and the heavens send down due upon the earth so long shall the union stand and taking from his brow the crown on which was blazen the word communion.
He placed it upon the standard or the flag while the people kneeling down said, "Amen." We have to learn to kneel before God every day. Kneel. Teach your children to bow before Jesus. They're going to teach us to bow before climate change and before these uh false religions. We're going to teach our children and remind ourselves and perversion and perversion.
Mhm. We bow. We learn to bow as a nation to Jesus. And don't apologize. We're a Christian nation.
Don't apologize. We don't believe in separation of church and state. What does that mean? We believe in freedom. We can have our every nation on earth bows to a god.
You don't apologize. When you enter into Saudi Arabia, you know it's a Muslim country. In Ramadan, they're not going to feed you food. They're fasting. You go to a Buddhist nation, you know that it's a Buddhist nation.
They don't say, "Oh, gee, I believe in separation of our government and Buddha." They say, "No, this is a Buddhist festival. Everybody has a day off. This is a Buddhist festival. Everyone's going to go and offer some incense." Wow. Apologize.
Americans are the only nation really on earth, and I guess the Americas that have been so secularized that we believe in this idea that God can be God in our personal life, but he's divorced and he's irrelevant to the rest of our lives. No, this is what we get when a nation decays and corroes because we have tried to kick God out. And God says, "No, I'm the God. I'm the creator. This is my land.
I gave the land to you that you might worship me freely because you were persecuted by the Catholic Inquisition in Europe. Then the Christians fled over to America looking for religious persecution. This land was dedicated to Christ." Wow. Praise God.
Yes. I It goes back to I had a visitation. And I was praying one night for America and I was interceding really and I had an openeyed vision and the Lord showed me uh the pilgrims at Plymouth Rock and they were they were gathered around this massive rock there and they were taking communion and they were calling the nation for the Lord and they were dedicating this land to the Lord and the Lord said those prayers still echo before my throne. They are they are I still hear them.
And he said, "I honor the covenant that I made with th with those settlers, the people that came for religious freedom." And he said, that's what he told me. He said, "Brandon, you look at judgment. Everybody's calling judgment on America. Judgment's coming. Judgment's coming." He said, "No." He said, "Correction is coming and there's a great wakeup coming.
There's an awakening." And he said, "It's going to be a shakening." And he said, "But it's not judgment." He said true judgment is whenever you are separated from me for eternity. He said when you are in hell for eternity that's true judgment.
He said if you go through a little bit of a spanking in life it's correction and it's to lift you up so you don't go to hell for eternity. He said but he said but I made a covenant with your founding fathers.
And he said I will honor that. And he said my this land will not become a goat nation. It will be a sheep nation. And that's what he warned me about. And he told me all these things that, you know, I see these things coming, but it's not the end.
It's just to wake people up. Like pastor Steve is talking to you all, the body of Christ is asleep and they are and we're losing our freedoms that were given to us to have religious freedom to have that ability to pray and seek his face, you know, and we don't if we don't stand for something, look what's going on. If the Buddhist he's saying is doing it in China and the Muslims are doing it in Saudi Arabia, we need to stand for what we believe as Americans. We're Christian. We're a Christian nation founded on godly principles and we have to stand for the word and stand for our covenant rights and say enough's enough.
You're not taking our rights and privileges away from us. We will pray in public. We will pray in our elections and we're going to elect a godly person. It is so important this election coming in 2024. You don't realize this is a make or break time in my heart.
You know, we can go either in more darkness or we can turn around this ship and s send it back into light. You know, we have an opportunity here to change things. Will you wake up and start preaching righteousness and holiness back in the pulpits? Teaching the people to live a godly lifestyle and live unto the Lord. Fathers, teaching your children the word of God in these last days.
Praying with your wife, praying as a family, anointing your kids with oil, taking communion, bringing them to church. Read the Bible. Yeah. You know, wake up and say good morning to God and acknowledge his greatness. Teach your children.
Be a good example. None of these things are hard, but it's almost like we're not hearing it anymore.
Well, you they get lazy, you know? I think it's a lot of they get spiritually dry. They're not being taught how the word that you're teaching at your church to live by faith. They're getting a lukewarm gospel and they're not getting something to stir them up and get them excited about the word every Sunday, you know, to sit there and go, "Hey, I can go out and live this." instead of going, "Well, you know, if I if I do, if I do, if I don't, I don't. You know, it really doesn't matter.
You know, I'm just going to go out and, you know, live like the world and be okay and I'm going to make it by grace or whatever." And so you're preaching a compromising gospel. A lot of pastors are. I've been to them. And you sit there and you go, "What was this? I wasted my time." And Pastor Steve, do you have any final words?
Do you have anything you want to say before you close here? I want everyone to know that Jesus is the only way to be saved from your sins. Be sure that sins will find you out.
So, surrender. Surrender early. Don't prolong the fight. Don't prolong the battle. You know, don't stay in pride and say, "I'll put it off.
I'll do it another day. I'm going to have some more fun." I'm telling you, life can change so fast. It can flip. It can flip on a doctor's report. It can flip with Hamas coming and invading your southern border um like they did in Israel.
So things change fast. So if you're going through some troubled times, surrender to Jesus. What did he do for you? He came as a sinless baby. Lived a sinless life.
Died sinless on your behalf to take away or to pay for your punishment, your sins. And because he didn't have any sin, he defeated death, hell, and the grave and rose again on the third day. That is the good news. You need to take part. You need to decide to receive that.
It's a gift that he's given you. So pray this with me if you've been listening and you want Jesus. Just say, don't need to understand anything else. Just say, I want Jesus. Pray this and say, "Dear heavenly father, I repent of my sins.
I surrender my life to you. I believe Jesus died on the cross. Gives the full payment for all my sins. And I believe after three days, he rose again from the dead. He is the victorious savior.
And I call you my Lord today. I'm yours forever. Please use my life. From this day forward, I am a born again Christian. Thank you for writing my name in the book of life.
I am assured in Jesus name I pray. Amen. I'm excited that you if you're part of our family, you just got born again.
And so just let us know if you did. So I hope this blessed you today. Thank you for joining me if you're still watching. Thank you for all the support, all the likes, all the all the all the kind words in the comment section.
So, I just want to say put a smile on your face and a song in your heart. Jesus loves you so much and we love you and we just thank you for joining us today. You all have a blessed one and we'll see you next time. Bye-bye.
