Read an Excerpt

"The Glory Cloud"

Without holiness no man shall see God. To stay in the glory cloud, there should be a change in your life. Jesus was tempted 10 times. Prayer changes things. David prayed seven times, and Daniel prayed three times a day. When you put on holiness, as you walk into the room, the anointing will be all over you. When you are trying to go higher with the Lord, never let unclean spirits attach themselves to you. Holiness means to be complete with God; being of the same mind and spirit; staying in agreement by lining your life up with God. The goodness of the Lord will cause you to repent.

When you get goodness in your life holiness is coming; anointing glory is coming.
The Israelites provoked God. After He showed them His glory, they still did not repent or change from their sins. That slavery mentality will keep you from the promise land. God wants to show you favor by resurrecting you from your sins, so glory can come in. If you say, "My sins are ok, and God understands," you are deceiving yourself. God will never go back on His word. You have to get rid of sin so God can come in and flow in your life. When God shows up, He will show up with goodness. You have to clean your closet because company is coming.

Your life has to be in agreement with God’s word. When you are in the glory cloud no one can steal your joy or your peace.

I’m glad God anointed me to preach. Man cannot give you power. There is trouble in the house when it rains. There are tears in your eyes when it rains. When the sun comes out, if man gave you your calling, the glory cloud would fade away. Moses asked for glory and God said, "I’ll show you my goodness." When you see God’s goodness you will be in His glory.

Stay in His glory by putting holiness on, because you have goodness when company comes. Let the anointing flow. Clean up so God can show up. David said, "Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew in me a right spirit in me" (Ps 51:10). The letter killeth the anointing brings it alive. Glory is God’s word in your life. Some people hate to see you get blessed. Don’t let anyone take you out of your glory cloud. The more they torment you, the more you praise God. Don’t take the bait; remember your anointing is not for sale. You have the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Tell that devil, "I’m back from the upper room to rock and roll with more power from on high!"

"It’s Time To Take a Stand"

Never give up on God. Let that devil know he cannot rob you of your inheritance. Remind him that Jesus was striped of everything, given a crown of thorns and betrayed with a kiss. God is a forgiving God. Man remembers when. I heard a man say on the radio on my way to work, "Please don’t pray for justice. We might all go to hell. Pray for mercy and grace."

David declares, "I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me. He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house; he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight" (Ps 101:3, 7). He further states in Psalm 103:6, "The Lord executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed."

If you feel someone wants to hurt you or bring you down tell him or her to go ahead and take you to the cross. Tell them you are going to take a stand because you know a man name Isaiah who speaks about our Messiah, King Jesus. "But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him" (Is 53:5). When things get rough and tough, you have to rise above it all. You will not have to cry anymore, if you put everything in God’s holy hands. When your friends press you down, when they knock you down, and when people change your gladness to sadness, say to yourself that you will never frown.

No one said the road would be easy. When Satan tries so hard to hold you down and the enemy is all around, sometimes your most trusted soldier would let you down. Remind yourself you have something within you to help you make it. Take wings and fly to heaven and rise above it all. Stop worrying about who’s beside you. Even those who claim to be by your side through thick and thin may not be able to keep their word. Even Peter denied Jesus three times after boldly professing earlier, "I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death"

(Lu 22:33). When you get off the battleship, get ready for victory. Don’t look down. Don’t look around. March to the victory line. Hold on to His promises. One day we will see the pearly gates and the streets paved with gold.

One morning God gave me a vision. He said, "Hold your hand out. The world is so evil they will cut the hand that fed them." "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life"

(Jn 3:16). John called Jesus the "Light" in chapter one of his gospel. "That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not" (Jn 1:9-11). If the world rejected Jesus, how much more do you think they will do to us? He said, "The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest. Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves. He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me" (Lu 10:2,3,16). Thank You, Jesus, for sending me. To God be the glory!
