Praise the Lord, welcome to God's Place Party for Jesus' Ministry. It's always a blessing to be here in the presence of God here at the studio. My beautiful wife, my helpmate. And most of all, just doing God's work and showing what He's revealed to us.
And I'm going to introduce my wife, Shannon Macklin, and just let her give a testimony of what God has brought her from and just celebrate it eight years' anniversary of the cross. And go ahead and charge him. God's giving me a new wife. He that's in Christ, the new creation.
Old things pass away and be on all things become new. So all things become new because of Jesus. Before I lived in shame and guilt and condemnation and depression, anxiety and worry and burden, but most of all, I lived hopeless. So I know what it's like to feel like, you know, to be in despair and to feel hopeless.
But see, Jesus come that we could have hope and that we could have life. He said, I come that you may have life and life more abundantly. But there is an enemy that comes to kill, steal and destroy. But Jesus overcome that.
He gave us power over the enemy when He defeated the enemy on the cross. And He was resurrected. And that's what gives us power. And that's what we've got to always remember that there's power in the name of Jesus.
There's power in the blood of Jesus. You know, so don't ever get weary and well-doing because you'll reap if you faint not. But the only well-doing is what God's got us doing. It's the will of God.
But you know, today is a day where we need to pray and turn away from our wicked ways so that God can hear us. You know, the Bible tells us in 2 Chronicles 7, 14, if my people, which are called by my name, would humble themselves, pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I would hear from heaven, forgive their sins and heal their lands. And I think that scripture is exactly for today. You know, we are nation, we need to keep continuing praying for Israel.
Our nation needs a lot of prayer right now as well. You know, we've got leaders and the Bible tells us in the last days that there will be many that will become as angels of light, even Satan. He turned himself and transformed himself into an angel of light. And that's what we're seeing today, a lot of angel of lots.
And it's wolves and sheep's clothing. So you've got to pray and you've got to ask God to show you and to give you revelation, to reveal his mysteries unto you. But thank God that, you know, he gives us the watchmen. You know, we're supposed to be, we're supposed to be the watchmen.
You know, even in the military, they watch every few hours they alternate and they keep continuing to watch. And that's what we've got to do. We've got to continue to watch. He tells us in Romans 12, he says, to rejoice in hope, to be patient in tribulation and continue in prayer.
That's our power for Christians is prayer. That's our foundation to our temples to keep us. And that's what God is telling us in 2 Chronicles 7, 14. You know, when we seek God's face, we seek His will, we're supposed to pray, we're supposed to fast, we're supposed to sacrifice, and we're supposed to go and bless the needy and to feed the hungry and to be a lot into the world.
But to do that, we've got to have our secret a long time with God. The Bible says, he that wells in the secret place, the most high shall abide in the shadow of the Almighty. And that's what we need to do is abide with God because these days it's getting shortened. He says, redeem the time because the end is near.
We've got to redeem the time. We've got to prepare for the Lord because we're living in the last hours. Amen. You know, when you say, say, chronicle 7, 14, I don't know if many people have noticed our world is in a mess right now, praise the Lord, the coronavirus and all the rights and the Black Lives Matter, of course, I mean all lives matters.
And the one that matters most to me is Jesus' life and the one that he gave for each and every one of us. But literally, I mean, you can see the shape of the world is in today. Even today, it's the coronavirus is actually risen higher than any level of people are dying, people getting in. And you know, the Bible tells us 365 times, if you're in all this one time, every day, I don't worry about the coronavirus.
It's not for me and my family. I trust the Lord. The Bible says, trust the Lord. You have a heart, not to lean on your own understanding, knowledge, him and all ways.
And he should lead and get her past. Well, I made a covenant with God that I would be obedient and follow Him and he made a covenant with me, whatever I ask, and he doesn't even need to do it. And he said, Matthew 21, 22 whatsoever. You ask the believer in the prayer, you shall receive it.
So I stand on the word of God and ask God to protect me and my family and my church family. We never shut down a night service during all this pandemic. So I don't know about the grace of God. You know, God has protected us and washed over us.
And you know, I praise the Lord. I don't wear a mask unless I have to just, you know, I don't want to think shut me up because I'm always wanting to preach the gospel. But absolutely. So, but you know, second chronicle 714, if my people, which are called by my name, but humbled ourselves and seek my face and pray, turn from your wicked ways.
God will hear from heaven. Forgive our sins and heal our lands. Well, church, that's what we need to do. We need to, he's talking to the church.
He said, if my people, we need to pray, amen, we need to turn from our wicked ways. We need to quit being lukewarm. The Bible said, because we might cold or hot but lukewarm, we God will spew us out of his mouth. And it's funny because, you know, during the coronavirus, they tell you to go home and court team, if you've been exposed to court team for 14 days.
And I think it's second chronicle 714 that, you know, chapter 14, praise God. Verse 14 and court team for 14 days. Well, if people, they would go home and take these 14 days and really seek God to the whole heart and we've heard testimonies that people didn't have nothing else to do. So they started reading their Bibles and literally it's changed their whole lives.
And that's what God is trying to do. He's trying to let us know that we need God. Our nation, our world is in worship. And we've ever, than I've ever experienced it.
I mean, since since, I mean since I've been born, one thing I want to talk about tonight is it's a hard subject to know. Jesus come to seek and to save those are lost, amen. You know, he died first while we were all sinners. We've all seen and fell assured to go, we've got it, Shannon, we've seen probably our past is a lot worse than most people's out there.
I mean, a lot of people was, I mean, I've been, you know, I came from a family of murders and drug addicts and, and you know, I was a praise God I was addicted to, to a needle, addicted to a crack pop and I don't like talking about these stuff. I'm just here to tell you, you know, that I'm not here. damn nobody. I'm not, you know, I'm here to brag about where God has brought me from.
And to let you know that he come to die for the sinners. And but you know, the Bible says right here in 1st C. 69, he said, no, he not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God, be not deceived for fornicators or idolaters or adultery or effeminate or abusers of themselves will mankind, nor thieves, nor covenants, nor drunken, nor revealers, extortions, shotton, hear it to kingdom of God. He said, in such words, some of you, but you are washed, you are sanctified, but you are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus by the Spirit of our God.
So it's not a shame to be in those. It's a shame to stay there when God is trying to pull you out. Like I say, there's a lot of those things that he just mentioned that I was. But what I want to talk about today is about, you know, the way that our country is run today.
You know, we got a transgender praise God that's run in office. I can't even remember exactly what state. You know, the president, the praise God they talk about a Biden is, you know, they're saying he's going to take tax payers money to help people get sex changes and stuff like that. I'm not here to condemn nobody, but I am here to stand on the Word of God in what God says is abomination, bragging on homosexuals, you know, that's in office now.
And so listen, guys, this is everything that God is against. And that's a, you know, we need to repent. It's not, these folks are lost. They don't know Jesus Christ or they wouldn't be in a situation.
God is a believer and he can change all that. He can deliver, you know, everybody that's got a homosexual spirit or transgender or whatever, that's that's falling into this trap. But you know, and I truly do believe that a lot of us generation curses, I believe people ask somebody ask me one time, can a person be born gay? Absolutely.
There's people born with praise God with crack addictions. There's babies born right now with addictions. It's never done. I don't do them in our life.
There's generation curses. It's been passed on to them. We had a guy that came to God's place and he, he had homosexual spirit. He stood up and gave a testimony.
He's one of the most powerful testimony I've ever heard from anybody talking about. He thought he was born that way. It was okay. But when he started coming to church, he felt conviction, the Holy Spirit.
And he just felt, he felt conviction and he surrendered and gave his life to Lord and realized and did well for a long time. I don't know his status right now. He's not coming there no more. But the fact that he came and said he thought it was okay because he was born that way.
Well, there's many people born with, like I said, generation curses, addiction, bondages, whatever people's drunk, one drink of alcohol and other alcoholics because it was a Christian place upon them. But here's the problem is this is how lost our world is that we're voting these people into the office, into the runner nation. And so that shows you how lost our world is today. These people are lost.
They're not, they're not. We need godly people. We need people to stand up for God. It's time today for people to, God said he put us in the trust with the gospel that we not speak pleasing to men but pleasing to God.
Everything that this nation was founded upon, it was founded upon God. Amen. It's what we built upon a rock and rock is Jesus. And they're not only took God out of schools, but now they've took him out of the praise God.
They took him out of the White House. I mean, everything people, I mean, people can't even say God anymore. I mean, it's, it's, it's literally we have got to pray. We need to see God like we never have before.
You know, God, we see that's what's wrong. That's what's happening. That's why we see all the things that's going on in the world, the epidemic, the coronavirus, the riots. I mean, the Bible speaks about it that people's not heartening to God's voice.
They're rejecting God. They're turning from God. And God said this day, he said, I said before you, blessing our curse. Well, our whole nation's been cursed.
I mean, literally in the 1960s, you know, when he says, you're around 1126, he said, Hey, he said, I'll call you to be the head. He said, you'll be the head and not to tell bless. He said, bless, he that serves me. He said, he said, I'll give you a blessing or curse, a blessing if you serve me, the curse if you don't.
And he said, I'll make you the lender, not the barger. Amen. I'll call you to be the head and not to tell when the 60s, we were like the number one country that was lending money to other countries. And guess what?
Now we're at the bottom. Amen. We're the least. I mean, we're because of, of, you know, we have allowed praise God same sex marriages.
We've allowed to abortions. I mean, this is things that God hates. One of the six things he said, he hates chad innocent blood. You know, and now we got and you know, now we've got, you know, presidents that's saying, Hey, it's okay to have a boy.
It's not okay. It's not okay for, uh, for homosexuality. It's it's not okay. It's it could be a generation curse and they could be born that way, but it's not okay.
It's not okay. We don't say it's okay to be a murderer. Amen. That's not okay.
Neither. It's seeing is not okay. And that's why we need to stand up men and women of God. We need to pray like we never prayed before.
We need to fast like we've never fast before. We need to get serious about this. We need to see delivered. Say, man, God has called us to lay hands on the sick and they shall recover to cast out demons.
These these these things that's going on, this is demons in people. Amen. And now, I mean, I mean, they think it's okay. I mean, now we've got churches that that that's gay run by gay people and they're having a date night and I mean, this is God's not in that church.
Amen. That's not a God. You got something? You know, he tells us in Isaiah that well went to them that you know, called evil good and good evil.
And that's what's going on today. You know, we're we're so caught up in in turning good into evil and even to good because, you know, it's always been Jesus is the way and that's like, you know, that's that's the only way that you know, that is to the Father. That's the only way to have relationship with God. But he gives us these instructions and these things not to do for for reason or principles.
We're supposed to live upon these principles of God, you know, and I had wrote down, you know, even the founding fathers believed in God who gave us the management system and they adopted it, you know, and even like our money and dollar bills and coins, it's in God we trust, you know. And so now we're violating God's laws, you know, and violation of God's law. There's consequences. There's big consequences.
And everybody knows that if you if you've read the word of God, there's always consequences through every disobedient, you know, sin entered into the world because I'm in. It's not because of God. God gave us, he gave Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden everything, you know, everything they needed was there and it was perfect plan that God, you know, he spoke this world into existence, you know, it's founded by the Word of God, God spoke it and framed by the Word of God. And this world is supposed to be framed by the Word of God.
And, you know, Adam and Eve, she was deceived the same way Satan was deceived. You know, she, he says, if you eat, if this tree, you can be like God. And see, that's what Satan wanted to do. He wanted to be like God.
So Satan's going around and he's given everybody the seat of deception because everybody thinks well, in this equality law, well, if if if we can pass these laws, we're going to accommodate everybody, everybody else to be comfortable and they get what they want, you know, and that's that everybody be treated equal. Yes, it's part of our Constitution, you know, and we have the civil rights, but you know, when it comes to coming against, you know, what God told us not to do, then there's, you know, that that right there that that's breaking God's laws and we could turn into, you know, it's national ruin without God. We've got to have God keep and God in our nation. And he says, in the beginning, he created male and female and he says what God joins together, let no man put his lander, he joins male and female together.
And I don't know who out there, you know, that, you know, he was born a different sex, but you know, you think that you're, that you're another, you know, sex or gender, you know, God he created you, he made you perfect, you're wonderfully and beautifully made by God. If you could just accept that and realize how much, you mean to God, and that, you know, he created in you, he made in the image of him. So he wanted you to already to be in the image of God, see, but Lucifer couldn't see that, you know, the angel, he wanted to be God. He didn't want to be like God, he wanted to be God.
And see pride, we can fall through pride and a lot of things, you know, that, that keep us, it is pride. But if you just humble yourself and listen to the word of God and allow the word of God and, you know, what's going on today and compare it and see if scripture's not being fulfilled itself. But you know, he does tell us, you know, that we're not supposed to, to murder, you know, we're not, we're not supposed to commit adultery. See, whenever you're out of God's perfect marriage, his plan of marriage was male and female for marriage.
And you know, he says that he blessed that and to go and be fruitful and multiply, you know, women have the reproductive organs and they're talking about, of course, children and things like that. But he blessed that, you know, that right there says a lot to me that, and you know, it's, it's committing adultery, you know, because you're supposed to, you know, you're supposed to lie with male and female supposed to lie together. So that's committing adultery if it's anything different. And, but you know, the, and that was one of the first things that God sanctified was marriage.
That was what he sanctified one of his first, you know, laws that he give and commitments that he give, or that he sanctified one of his institutions that he sanctified. And so, you know, I'm going to read a few scriptures right here. And this is talking about how people had turned from the Creator and to serve the Creator more than the Creator talking about self, you know, the Bible talks about in the second Timothy 3, he says that in the last days men will be lovers of themselves, more than lovers of God. And that's what's going on, you know, even they're trying to read defined marriage, they're trying to, you know, change these, these amendments that was given in the commandments that was given by our founding fathers.
And let's read right here. It says, they therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lust of their own hearts to dishonor their own bodies between themselves, who changed the truth of God into a lie and worshiped and served the creature more than the Creator, who was blessed forever, amen. It says, for this cause God gave them up until vile affections for even their women did change the natural use into that witch is against nature. And likewise, also the men leaving the natural use of women burned in their lusts, one toward another men with men working with it, which is unseemly and receiving in themselves the recommence of their heir, that witch was me.
See, God's telling them that. And he says, because they did not retain God in their knowledge. So God gave them over to a reprobative of mind. See, God, when we don't put God in our knowledge, when we don't, you know, keep God in our nation, we don't keep God in our laws, and we don't stay faithful to keeping God's will, you know, he will turn us over and we'll thank we're okay into a reprobative of mind.
And that will give us more, you know, mental illnesses and all these other spirits. The Bible says, where we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers and and spiritual weakness in high places. That spiritual weakness in high places, it's talking about in the heavenly places, but also in the churches, you know, we've got so many false prophets that accommodate and sin, you know, you love the sinner, but you condemn the sin. The sin, you know, Jesus, he died for us, so we're no longer sinners, sin should have no more dominion over us, but we can live in liberty as well.
He says, we're the spirit of the Lord is there's liberty. And see, God, God gives us that liberty and cross Jesus, but also to serve one another, he tells us that, you know, and if we've got all these, he says being, see, and they did not retain the knowledge of God. So again, to reprobate mind, then he says being filled with all enrociousness and fornication, weakness, covetous malistiousness, full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, magnally whispers, backboders, haters of God, despotful, proud boasters, inventors of evil things, and this will be into parents. You know, that that is coming against us today too, that, you know, there are so much many children you hear about killing their parents coming against their parents.
That's the word of God. He said, you know, that mothers will be against daughters and fathers will be against sons or sons will be against fathers. They're saying, you know, that's what is going on today, you hear about so many kids that's killing their parents. And actually it says in the last days, you know, that our sons and daughters that will give us up and that we will be hated from all men, you know, and, but that it's getting worse and worse.
The Bible says that the world, it will wax evil and evil, worse and worse, and being more deceived. And that's what's going on. And because we're not sticking to the principles of God, we're not sticking to His instructions that He gave us. Turning further and further away from God.
I mean, it's sad to, you know, there's kids right now that's been adopted by two men. And like I said, we're not here to condemn nobody. We love everybody. Jesus sent us, so there's everybody out there.
But there is a way out, in Jesus' way. I mean, it's seen the sin and it's all we can with God's eyes. You know, there's some that it's a domination to God. And that's, that's a, you know, we all need to pray.
It's men and women of God. Churches, I even heard the Pope say it was okay. The same-sex marriage. This is a great, supposed to be a great spiritual leader.
And but that's, that's a, the devil comes as angry a lot. It's not okay. I don't care what preacher says it is or what church is condoling it, you know, that for them to have a gay knot, a date knot and the fact that, you know, you've got to somebody with homosexual spirit been leader of a church is completely wrong anyway, because in order for a man, a man to run a church. And I truly believe that a man needs to have a supposed to have a authority over church.
You know, the Bible says a woman is a weaker vessel, a man and God created Adam, Adam 40 at Eve and honor a woman as a weaker vessel and said if you're not an honor woman, as a weaker vessel, then your prize will be hindered. Amen. It's a man's job to have authority. And of course my wife speaks, but she's under authority, you know, for God and me.
And but our country is getting worse and worse. And it's not going to get any better to people truly repent. But God does change. I mean, the Bible says the same today yesterday forever more when when has the car, you know, God left a message until he has the car to get us out in order that he was going to pass away, that he was going to die.
And you know, has the car cried out to God and asking me, you know, hey, you know, extend my, extend my days. And the fact that he cried out to him, God sent words, says I'm going to give you 15 more years. You know, we all need to cry out to God if my people which are called by my name, but humble ourselves and seek his face and pray, turn from our wicked ways, you know, you know, it's time for preachers to preach. It's time for us to send the trumpets and let people know about the transgressions.
It's time for churches to be churches and have outer cows and not pray concerts and praise God to quit. We need to we need to be God is put us in the trust with the gospel that we not speak, please, and me, but please God. Now I agree that everything that's done needs to be wrapped up in love. Let God show us love through us that we love people enough to let them know that they're they're living their head for destruction.
The Bible says the Broadway leads to destruction and many will go there at. And the fact of it is we don't have so many people there. They're too concerned about building a lot of churches is trying to build the church's kingdom and not God's kingdom. You're not going to build God's kingdom by trying to make people think it's okay to see him.
It's not okay to see him. It's amazing how churches are not preaching repentance. They're not preaching commandments. They're not preaching hell, amen.
And why don't people preach like Jesus preached? Jesus loved people enough that he warned them to let them know that about hell and about repentance. And you know, Jesus from the start, he started preaching, repent, repent. The kingdom of God is a hand.
John the Babbus was running around and repent, repent. The kingdom of God is a hand. We need to repent. We need to repent.
The kingdom of God is a hand. The Babbus had awakened to righteousness and sin not. Some of you don't have the knowledge of God and I speak to you in chains. It's not even though the world, everything when Jesus came, everything he taught was totally against the brain of what the world believed.
And that's the way it is today. Our televisions, these, I call it television, we got sitcoms and men kissing men and women kissing women. And I've never seen it's growing. Children today's got lesbian spirits, young people, they're not ashamed.
They're not trying to hide it and just love it because they think it's okay. It's time for us to stand up for God. Stand on the word of God. Let people know that God has come back soon.
And if they don't repent, the Babbus, unless you all repent, you should all walk by us parish. Let's stand together, stand on the word of God. Let's preach the gospel. Let's let people know that Jesus loves them.
Please pray for this ministry. We desire your prayers. We want to be more effective. We want God to use us in a great way.

The Babbus said, if you confess your sins, he has faith on just forgive you and cleans you from all enrichesness. And now it means your life don't go on to you no more. It belongs to him. And the Babbus says, trust God be your whole heart and not the lean on your own understanding.
Know the truth and always and he should be got your prayers. Now it's time to get a relationship with God by reading and praying, seeking God be your whole heart each and every day of your life.
