  8. 0:18there cried a certain woman of the wives
  9. 0:22of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha
  10. 0:26saying thy servant my husband is dead
  11. 0:31and thou knowest that thy servant did
  12. 0:34fear the lord and that the Creditor is
  13. 0:37come to take unto him my two sons to be
  14. 0:41bondmen and Elisha said unto her what

  17. 0:50said thine handmaiden hath not anything

  22. 1:04all thy
  23. 1:08neighbors th this this next line right
  24. 1:11here is written a little differently
  25. 1:13because it's 1611 Kings English but he's
  26. 1:17saying they've got to be
  27. 1:18empty they don't need to have anything
  28. 1:20in
  29. 1:21them borrow not a

  32. 1:31thee and upon thy sons and shal pour out
  33. 1:34into all those
  34. 1:36vessels and thou shalt set aside that
  35. 1:39which is
  36. 1:41full and she went from him and shut the
  37. 1:43door upon her and her sons who brought
  38. 1:45the vessels to her and she poured
  39. 1:48out and it came to pass that when the
  40. 1:51vessels were full that she said unto her
  41. 1:54son bring me yet a vessel and he said
  42. 1:58unto her there is not a vessel more and
  43. 2:01the oil stayed or the oil
  44. 2:05quit then she came and told the man of
  45. 2:08God and he said go sell the oil pay th

  65. 3:20title of my
  66. 3:22message the Lord of what's

  70. 3:32and ask the Holy Ghost to speak
  71. 3:35tonight Hallelujah God In The Name of

  74. 3:41spirit speak in this place tonight in
  75. 3:44the precious precious
  76. 3:46name of Jesus Christ in Jesus name we
  77. 3:51pray
  78. 3:54amen now in the scripture that I read in
  79. 3:58your hearing Bri brother Brian Henry did
  80. 4:00such a tremendous job using the
  81. 4:03scripture just a few Services
  82. 4:06ago and but I want to go back to it and
  83. 4:10I I want to preach to you about an
  84. 4:14amazing story in the Bible this is this
  85. 4:18is one of the most amazing stories in
  86. 4:20the
  87. 4:22Bible and I have been I've been
  88. 4:25preaching this message
  89. 4:27for uh somewhere around 35 years I
  90. 4:31preached this message the first time
  91. 4:32this is this message I'm about to preach
  92. 4:35is an old message that I preached as an
  93. 4:37evangelist just about everywhere I
  94. 4:39went my wife told me today it was one of
  95. 4:42my her favorite messages when we were
  96. 4:44evangelizing because she got to hear the
  97. 4:46same sermons over and over and over
  98. 4:50again wherever we
  99. 4:53went and any of y'all that ever
  100. 4:55criticize a preacher for that obviously
  101. 4:58have never preached
  102. 5:02because if you have a tool chest full of
  103. 5:04tools you're going to have a full few
  104. 5:07tool tools in that tool chest that
  105. 5:08you're going to be partial
  106. 5:11to because they
  107. 5:13work and if a tool
  108. 5:16works you use it
  109. 5:21again it'd be silly not
  110. 5:25to and uh no one ever gets on to the
  111. 5:28singers for singing a song
  112. 5:31again but they think a preacher ought to
  113. 5:33have something brand new every time he
  114. 5:36preaches and we do it's a brand new
  115. 5:41anointing I've never I've never preached
  116. 5:44a message that it turned out the same
  117. 5:46way
  118. 5:47twice because when God takes over that
  119. 5:51thing takes a life of its
  120. 5:54own and sometimes that means it turns
  121. 5:56out real good and sometimes it means
  122. 6:00it you wonder what
  123. 6:02[Music]
  124. 6:04happened but that most of the time has
  125. 6:07to do with the
  126. 6:08crowd because there's two anointings
  127. 6:11that a man operates under one is a
  128. 6:15vertical anointing it comes straight
  129. 6:17down out of heaven and the other's a
  130. 6:19horizontal anointing and it's pushed
  131. 6:21onto that preacher from the
  132. 6:24pews
  133. 6:26hallelujah hallelujah and so I I want I
  134. 6:29want to preach to you for a few minutes
  135. 6:31about the Lord of what's left now this
  136. 6:33this is an amazing story because this
  137. 6:37lady was the wife of a
  138. 6:40prophet you you would expect her you
  139. 6:43would expect this woman
  140. 6:46to you you'd expect her to know about
  141. 6:49miracles and you would expect her to
  142. 6:52know what God can do her her husband was
  143. 6:56a
  144. 6:57prophet he worked operated in the
  145. 7:00prophetic I mean that's Elisha knew her
  146. 7:04this was this is one of his
  147. 7:08prophets that has died and she calls
  148. 7:11Elijah in Elisha in I'm sorry and begins
  149. 7:15to tell
  150. 7:17Elisha that she's lost it
  151. 7:20all that's the story is that she's lost
  152. 7:25everything
  153. 7:26everything has been lost now man this is
  154. 7:30this is so vital and this is so
  155. 7:32important that you grasp this and get a
  156. 7:34hold of what I'm
  157. 7:36saying she's she's lost it all
  158. 7:39now what stands out to me in this
  159. 7:43story is that our faith is always for
  160. 7:47other
  161. 7:51people and when it happens to us we tend
  162. 7:55to forget everything we've been telling
  163. 7:57other people
  164. 8:02because if someone else would have come
  165. 8:04to this prophet's wife this pastor's
  166. 8:06wife this preacher's
  167. 8:08wife with the same story that she was
  168. 8:11given this Prophet
  169. 8:14Elisha she would have given the same
  170. 8:18advice to them that Elisha gave to
  171. 8:23her but when is
  172. 8:27you when is you that had the
  173. 8:30loss it seems like all memories of
  174. 8:33everything God's ever
  175. 8:36done somebody steals it out of your
  176. 8:42file oh come on
  177. 8:45now there is a he listen to me he's not
  178. 8:48just a
  179. 8:50killer he can't just kill your dream it
  180. 8:53would be wonderful if that's all he did
  181. 8:56if he just killed your dream
  182. 9:01but he don't do that he also robs your
  183. 9:03God
  184. 9:05file and all of a sudden you can't
  185. 9:08remember one Miracle one
  186. 9:11Deliverance one answer and it's as if
  187. 9:14you're facing the first problem you've
  188. 9:16ever faced and you don't even know if
  189. 9:19God can deliver or
  190. 9:21not it's like you've never heard a
  191. 9:24testimony and you've never heard can
  192. 9:26anybody testify that you've been there
  193. 9:32and she calls the prophet in and she
  194. 9:36sounds like a brand new convert that's
  195. 9:39never had an experience with God
  196. 9:44before I have lost it
  197. 9:48all I've lost everything here's her very
  198. 9:51words I don't have anything
  199. 9:55left that's what she said that that's
  200. 9:58the very word that's cor that's recorded
  201. 10:01in the Bible I don't have anything left
  202. 10:05and then she don't want to
  203. 10:08lie and she said
  204. 10:13well I mean there's a pot of all what's
  205. 10:20that well obviously that pot of all was
  206. 10:24a
  207. 10:26lot because a bunch of that gave her a
  208. 10:32retirement oil must have been worth
  209. 10:39something because that's the very thing
  210. 10:42that he used to totally change her
  211. 10:46life totally turn her life
  212. 10:52around but her story was I have
  213. 10:55nothing
  214. 10:57left I mean not a
  215. 10:59thing C can I just shoehorn this in
  216. 11:02that's exactly where God wants you
  217. 11:09sometimes because if you can get back
  218. 11:11what you've
  219. 11:13lost you can blame the Miracle on your
  220. 11:17Ingenuity if you can get back what
  221. 11:20you've lost you can make you can blame
  222. 11:22the Miracle on your
  223. 11:26abundance if you can get back what
  224. 11:28you've lost
  225. 11:30you can blame the Miracle on whatever it
  226. 11:33is that you
  227. 11:36regained but if he works a miracle out
  228. 11:39of
  229. 11:41nothing then you can only say all you
  230. 11:44can say is only
  231. 11:50God somehow he sometimes he likes to put
  232. 11:53you in a position that you have to say
  233. 11:55only God
  234. 12:02if it had not been for
  235. 12:04Jesus if it had not been for the Lord
  236. 12:08you know sometimes he wants you there
  237. 12:11sometimes he just put not because he
  238. 12:12don't love you but because he does love
  239. 12:17you sometimes he puts you there not
  240. 12:19because you've done anything wrong but
  241. 12:21because you've done everything right and
  242. 12:23he can't show you a miracle he can't
  243. 12:25show you his hand he can't show you his
  244. 12:28greatness
  245. 12:31until you have to say only
  246. 12:36God my God have mercy we're we're so
  247. 12:39limited that we think the only way we
  248. 12:40can get there is because we've done
  249. 12:42something wrong or we've made a mistake
  250. 12:44or we've made God mad or we've upset God
  251. 12:48that's not what it is sometimes he does
  252. 12:49it because he loves you and he wants you
  253. 12:51to have more faith than anybody
  254. 12:55else he wants you to have a testimony
  255. 12:58that nobody else
  256. 13:00has he wants you to have a testimony
  257. 13:03that no one else can lay claim to your
  258. 13:05testimony all of a sudden it's not a
  259. 13:07mundane testimony anymore all of a
  260. 13:10sudden it's not an average testimony
  261. 13:11anymore all of a sudden you got a
  262. 13:13treetop tall
  263. 13:18testimony now you've got the testimony
  264. 13:20to beat all
  265. 13:25testimonies sometimes he wants to set
  266. 13:27you apart
  267. 13:29he lets you lose everything not because
  268. 13:31he loves you but because he trusts
  269. 13:36you job didn't lose any everything
  270. 13:39because he was a sinner he lost
  271. 13:40everything because he was a
  272. 13:43saint job didn't lose everything because
  273. 13:45he was unfaithful he lost everything
  274. 13:47because he was
  275. 13:49faithful job didn't lose anything
  276. 13:52everything because God was mad at him he
  277. 13:54lost everything because God was he was
  278. 13:56special to God
  279. 13:59oh you're not you're not hearing me
  280. 14:02preach he didn't lose everything because
  281. 14:04God didn't trust him he love he lost
  282. 14:07everything because God trusted him more
  283. 14:09than anybody else on
  284. 14:18Earth man he didn't he didn't lose
  285. 14:20everything because God didn't like him
  286. 14:22he lost everything because God wanted
  287. 14:23him to have his own book in the Bible
  288. 14:26yeah that's it
  289. 14:30his name wasn't going to be a part of a
  290. 14:32book his name wasn't going to be a part
  291. 14:34of a story he wasn't going to be
  292. 14:36mentioned in somebody else's book he got
  293. 14:39oh my God he took everything from him
  294. 14:42and left him with nothing so that he can
  295. 14:44give him a book with his name on
  296. 14:50it
  297. 14:51yes
  298. 14:53wow my God he's not written in the book
  299. 14:56of Kings he's not written in one of the
  300. 14:58prophets
  301. 15:00my God he's got his own book it's the
  302. 15:02Book of Job and the only way he could
  303. 15:04get there is he had to lose it all he
  304. 15:07had to lose it all he had to lose
  305. 15:10everything in order to have his own
  306. 15:15[Applause]

  320. 15:49your own
  321. 15:51book what if God wants you to have a
  322. 15:54book with your name on
  323. 15:57it wow
  324. 16:00my Lord have mercy when you turn to the
  325. 16:03Book of Job you start reading you got to
  326. 16:05understand the only reason there's a
  327. 16:06book of Job is because somebody lost it
  328. 16:11all there wouldn't be a book of job if
  329. 16:14somebody had lost it
  330. 16:17all but I'm preaching to you about the
  331. 16:19Lord of what's left

  342. 17:00but I can almost hear Elisha get a
  343. 17:02little irritated with
  344. 17:04her because all she wants to do is talk
  345. 17:07about what she's
  346. 17:11lost all she wants to do is complain you
  347. 17:14you can almost tell when she's telling
  348. 17:17him yeah that he was the last on her
  349. 17:20list she's already told
  350. 17:23Suzy she's already called

  356. 17:39boys I mean she's already got all the
  357. 17:41mileage she can squeeze out of it and
  358. 17:43said well I guess I'm going to have to
  359. 17:44go tell the prophet I I can't think of
  360. 17:46anybody else to complain
  361. 17:51to I thought I lost my batteries there
  362. 17:54y'all got so Qui
  363. 17:59and when she starts in with the preacher
  364. 18:01he hears it in her tone that she's
  365. 18:05getting just a little too much out of
  366. 18:06telling
  367. 18:09this and he shuts her down and he says
  368. 18:12hey have you got anything

  609. 29:31vessels and kept pouring and their kids
  610. 29:34would have kept baring vessels and kept
  611. 29:35pouring that 6,000 years later somewhere
  612. 29:38over in the Middle East we'd be talking
  613. 29:40about somebody that's been pouring oil

  775. 36:55walked and looked and into that Forge
  776. 36:58and when he did a big old hunk of iron
  777. 37:01ore popped out of that Forge and hit him
  778. 37:04right in the
  779. 37:05face and burnt both of his eyeballs out
  780. 37:08of his
  781. 37:12sockets Billy only got angry he only got
  782. 37:15more
  783. 37:17rebellious and he'd be be heard to say

  785. 37:21I don't have my sight I don't have
  786. 37:23anything Billy became what we would call
  787. 37:25today probably a suicidal
  788. 37:30angry
  789. 37:33mad
  790. 37:36finally Billy changed one
  791. 37:39day he decided if he was going to live
  792. 37:41he was going to have to make the best
  793. 37:42out of his
  794. 37:44life he begin to go to a school for the
