SEJA UMA TESTEMUNHA DE JESUS - Todd White

[Music] but they'd be terrible if you had the calling of a pastor and you forgot that you're supposed to witness about Jesus what if it's not being called as an evangelist what if it's not just your call as an evangelist that enables you to evangelize so to speak what if it's pastors apostles prophets teachers but what if it's all the fivefold are all called to be witnesses yes okay felt like the breath just left the room it didn't leave the room I honestly believe that it's a stronghold in the body of Christ to where I'm

a pastor I've got lots of dude that's your office you're an evangelist what I do is pastor it'd be a lot easier on you as who hears the past refrigerator just a couple in the front that's it right who here wants to be okay it's a lot easier on pastors and leaders when we train people to actually be witnesses and Jesus disciples in them we disciple them because it's about making disciples but it's about them coming into relationship with the teacher on a constant basis to where everywhere they go they have this internal teachers that

teaches them all things that are true the anointing that teaches them all things here true we can't afford to think that that somebody else was call and the reason why they witnessed is because they're called to be an evangelist no matter who you are no matter where you are your natural habitat or your natural habitation is to be a house that houses the presence of God everywhere you go you you are a temple for the Holy Ghost you are a temple from the Holy Spirit you are not here that that's the Lord I was the

Lord right there am I not a my own am I not able to walk certain places okay because I just walked on that is that legal I didn't go down a little sorry like when when I came into Jesus when I'm when I got born again I'm 11 years old now this this October coming up I'll be 12 so I've known Jesus for 11 years and I'm so excited about what I'm knowing but I'm more excited about him knowing me like I'm so excited that I get to know him but I'm more excited about the

fact that he knows me every second of every day and since I know that he knows me I know that he wants to know everybody else to the same way so as far as the making disciples I believe like I have how many people have ever heard this statement to come back to your first love okay do you know that coming back to your first love isn't the day that you got born again that's not where your first love is that's where you said yes to Jesus and then you got born again in that place

but that's not first love that's that's your first time you Mecca I believe that tasting and seeing that God is good is the place the first love and I believe that there are a lot of people walking around Christians that haven't tasted and seen that God is good people in this room and I'm not projecting or pointing the finger to anybody if the shoe fits kick it off I believe that there's a lot of people that you're around even even right now that don't know first love because they've never had an encounter with the love

of God an intense encounter to where you're one with him on a constant basis being born again is essential but it's to unlock your potential so when we come to God and he forgives us of our sin that's amazing but when we learn from Jesus we maintain soul rest which is everything so in my life I came out of my allowed to walk around you think you have no idea sometimes I'm in a little box and I can't come out of it on the stage I'm really actually so much better being able to walk around

when when I said yes to Jesus it wasn't until I tucked away in the Bible and learn what he said about me and what he thought about me not just so that I could teach people so you have to be very careful not to study to preach you study the word to become so as pastors as people that are as leaders how many of you are leaders somewhere something okay how many of you want to be a leader okay so being a leader you need to lead by example or you have nothing to lead with

but leading by example doesn't just mean what you studied the priests leading by example means the reality of what it means for Christ to flow for you on a constant basis to where everybody around you sees this is Jesus nobody separates you from this but you because God has given everything case like everything Jesus says you guys go and wait to the disciples in acts 1 he said you go and wait for the promise they had no idea what they were going to get there they're waiting for this promise and then Peter the one that

was like the worst of the worst gets like boom he gets changed into a different man and becomes this amazing preacher dude like led 3,000 people to Jesus because he became a witness there's a difference between doing what this thing I think what happens is sometimes we want to know how it works but when we want to do witnessing and we have to try to stir this thing up to actually do it like we're tired we we've been going through life and going through stuff and we need to do witnessing it's not doing what it's

being so possessed with being a witness that you can help but to saturate people everywhere you go with the reality of the Holy Spirit the one that you're in relationship with let me just give an example I went to I'm just gonna I'm just going to give examples I'm going to get testimonies and then we're going to pray and then God's just going to possess you because that's really what it's about really so I I went to I went on my first part of this trip I went to Gold's Gym because I believe everybody should

workout part of being a disciple I enough know it's not enough we need to be fit we need to go up to this thing right come on kill it okay so I went to Gold's Gym and I went to work out before the meeting and then I'm walking in and I'm up at the front desk and I'm checking in and I'm like yeah man I'm me my buddy want to work out he's like alright cool and I said dude I said you have something going on with your ankle there's two guys back there then one

big guy he walks away like he's like this crazy guy he walks away and the other guy looked him in he goes he is nah man I'm good I said okay cool I just really thought it was hearing in my heart why are you hearing in your heart like what does that mean well I have a relationship and he had a book on the table on the counter that was his book and had fear caption was fear like the name of the book was beer I said dude I used to have that my whole life

bro whole totally gone fear fears what I have he goes what are you talking about I said that book is about fear and fear fears the reality of what I see so where I go fear fears what I have oh I'm so serious like fear is afraid of what I have the spears the spirit so you haven't been given that spirit yet we're afraid to talk to somebody because that spirits trying to possess something that's already been possessed and he goes what are you talking about I said dude if you have anything let me just

pray for you give why I tore my pendant I tore my bicep I go no way he's got a few weeks ago it's terrible I said give me your arm and I prayed for the dude's arm that's the father I thank you that you show how much you love him and he goes whoa dude it's warm I said check it man snap it out snap it out you just know man I snapping it out I said it's a spirit he's afraid to snap it out he goes what bro what is going on I said see

told you it's afraid he looks at me he goes who are you big guys because what's going off what is happening right now I said that thing your arm your tendon check it man I could go cruel some weights dude prove me wrong bro yes oh okay man hey go ahead go in alright he leaves me a lot of knuckle and I'm working out I'm just living I'm listening to actually I'm listening the first Peter because I love it I'm in my ears all the time the word always in my ears always in front of

me on a constant basis that's what disciples do they continue in the word the word the word the word the words the words the words don't think that you can lead without being in the word and don't think that you can go by what you think that you've learned because bass doesn't come by having heard faith comes by hearing and not just reading it comes by hearing so we read and we hear at the same time and that is where faith grows right there so don't think that you've read that thing before and you can

just preach have adult preached a thousand old messages go into the word and ask God to make your life become the mess so that you have life to give everyone everywhere you go no matter where you are no matter who you are like oh I'm working out I'm doing some bench presses and dude comes over and he's like really scared the same guy he goes hey I don't know what's going on right now dude but I'm really freaked out please help me explain this to me I said oh dude I'm so glad you asked bro

and I start sharing Jesus no no no no I I grew up Catholic I said I get it if I growing up Catholic doesn't help you understand what happened to your arm bro he's like no I get it I said did you went to you went to Mass you had no idea what the priest was saying and when you were 11 years old you walked away I said I don't ever want to go back to mass again because what my life is the visual display of intimacy on legs I am a witness I have become

a witness I'm not trying to stir this thing up to come up with something I live it every day it's the constant witness at the hotel people will be wrecked in the next two days housekeepers will be overwhelmed they will cry they will come to Jesus not because not because I'm talking them into it because they will tremble because the Lord will overwhelm them listen not I have confidence in my father I'm not some God to cop and all I'm in relationship I'm in love with Jesus I've been on planes and that very ridiculous encounters

on planes all the time with people with airline attendants freaking out screaming at me manifesting devils shaking eyes rolling up into their head on planes in front of everyone on plane do you know what confrontation on planes is like it's not good everybody wants out but there's nowhere to go because people are lost and is still do at 35,000 feet or however many meters that is it's called being a witness I am a Christian terrorist you are to be a Christian terrorist you're to terrorize the devil look at you champion come on man oh dude

your warrior you don't take nothing from nobody come on man in your hand father I thank you in the name of Jesus God for this one God I thank you for a great grace before his life father I thank you for being able to take this gospel everywhere god I thank you for the transformation of family Jesus not thank you God I thank you for a man that never looks back only forward I thank you for no regret that thing that thing that gets you to try to look back is leaving today bro father I

said Mary actually modeled what Christianity was supposed to be like bro because what and don't get weirded out it's true she was the only one that ever got pregnant my god Mary no one else in the whole world ever got pregnant by God ever if you're a woman you know where your baby came from there was something that happened to cause that baby to be placed in your belly Mary didn't have that happen Mary was told she's like be it unto me boom and she gives birth to Jesus then Jesus is born imagine being a

mama that gave birth to God son but that's gotta be a crazy life you fell down oh right I mean then we're talkin Jesus right serious so thirty years later marries like she's like been waiting for a long time because this is the promise that was in her belly but Mary still is still in the same place the pregnancy thirty years later she's at the wedding of Cana and they run out of wine she goes to the only person that they know what to do she says they ran out of wine son he says what

does that have to do with me my time hasn't come yet he goes it's not my time so Jesus only said what the father said and I'm telling this guy at the gym he's like what is that what does that make sense I said Mary did the only things that she knew to do she looked at the servants she said do whatever Jesus tells you and she walked away she stepped out and she gave birth to Jesus right there and we as Christians are to be so pregnant with Jesus that we have to deliver him

everywhere we go you are supposed to be a pregnant Christian it's Christ in you the hope of glory Christ's coming out of you is that hoping made manifest and you're supposed to deliver a package it's him so the guy goes dude you're crazy man I go I'm in love with Jesus I shared my testimony goes Neal Wayne he was dude up you're freaking me out man I I whatever they're in curled minutes gone I said we think of that he's armed no dude so he walks away from me so I see another lady that's working

out the gym go speaks my heart since she has a problem in her right shoulder I said you have a problem in your right shoulder she just ya know the blank are you I said she's a big bodybuilder girl like big she punch me knocked me out big like I said no I just want to pray for your shoulder can I do it she goes I don't care so I prayed for so she just looked up and she starts cussing you know she is what is going on like this Jesus he lives them he loves

you she goes oh nice ranking awesome eleven oh she's just not like yeah yeah so the guy comes up to me and he goes dude what's your deal man my arm man what's the deal he's freaked out yet he's afraid but he's drawn to it it's kind of like Christians that we if we manifest the right thing we're like one of those bug lights that hangs in the darkness and the bugs don't know any better they just keep coming and once they get to the center we are attractive to the world we when were filled

with the right juice are attractive to the world when Christ is in you is the hope of glory not crisis is the new when Christ is in you and it's the hope of glory people get close to you and Christianity was supposed to be known for its attraction not known for its opinion Christianity was supposed to be known by its love and they still know that you're my disciples because of your love for one another what is that disciple making disciples is love for one another that's amazing not love with attitude not love them adult

like them that's demonic strategy setup to get God to take a bad rap come on you get a job to love but you don't gotta like them it's a command to love but you don't got like what is that that's the devil in your mouth that's what it is that's not God God doesn't love you but not like you I don't care who taught you that it's not true God doesn't tolerate you he loves you he's head over heels for you he has only good thoughts about you it's amazing now never the sands of this

of the whole world every grain representing an amazing thought that he has for you if you got a hold of five of those thoughts and you stop thinking about what everybody else thought it would change your life forever if you got a hold of ten thoughts and your your mind only focused on those ten thoughts for life your whole life would change everywhere you went you would display the reality of the love of God for you you'd be like ridiculously contagious everybody wants the Christ virus everybody wants their it's called love itself it's love it's

not love contingent if not love with expectations it's love with hope love always hopes the best love keeps no record of wrongs if you saw that it would ridiculously change your life you wouldn't help you wouldn't be able to help yourself witness you just be like ah there is no other option everywhere we go so this guy comes over to me he goes dude like what's the deal commands come here that girl over there because yeah I said God just spoke to me about her shoulder he's no no he didn't I said watch you go

and ask her he goes all right hey he knows her she's the regular hey what's going on like what happened that guy he told me that Jesus just told him that my shoulder was messed up he's no way did he pray for you imagine if we turn the tables on fear and what if we weren't afraid of what if he doesn't do it what if I pray nothing happens what if you do what he does what if I go and talk to them and I'm wrong what if you go and talk to them and you're

right with God what if you go and you talk to somebody and you're just completely possessed with being right with God does it matter what do you got to lose man you're stuck they've already lost your life you're supposed to deny yourself pick up your cross and follow him that's what a disciple is how can we make disciples in the world if we're not a disciple ourself how can we make disciples if we don't want to be disciples how can we come on them disciples we'll continue in my word disciples will deny themselves pick up

their cross and follow me what is the disciple man look at the disciples ridiculous dudes that were totally lost Jesus like I want you you you you you you you you yeah let's go cool they're denying Jesus they want to blow up cities they're like they denied you Lord let's call down fire and kill them all come on give us the word Lord there is disciples but they couldn't really be discipled until the Holy Spirit came from within because they were orphans and a disciple a son not an orphan so we need to know and

understand that God's our Father and when we see that God's our Father you're not discipled as an orphan your disciple does the son that loves the father or daughter that is loved and loves their father that changes everything then you don't have anything to prove to anybody then you're not trying to prove in him because orphans want to prove stuff when it proved you're wrong and I'm right that's orphan ship that's not Jesus that's not okay people say well I can relate to Peter well my question is which one are you relating to you the

one that was saved there were the one that wasn't saved because the one before Christ wasn't saved man and don't use the whole excuse for my spirit is willing but my flesh just weak excuse too because Jesus told that to disciples that weren't even born again they weren't even saved he said your spirit is willing but your flesh is weak well of course their flesh was weak they weren't born again they were orphans what happens when he comes to live inside you're not an orphan anymore then you're spillin is your spirit is willing and dominant

your flesh has to shut up [Music] it is good it's amazing we don't have to bite that bait man we don't have to go down that road it's not AI must increase or he must increase in I must decrease John the Baptist used that but he wasn't saying that he had nothing to do with what we think it is he said I in the law must decrease in Jesus and righteousness and truth must increase it wasn't I must decrease now that's not discipleship at all discipleship is i must deny my self it's not increase in

decreased it's died to live its gift gain come on man has this young guy 11 years old think he knows at all the Bible tells it all I just live in it he loves me I'm possessed by love so this guy looked at me because you serious he goes yeah it's blinking better it's like God he's like dude I got to go bro you're crazy I said no there's more asked that other god that was at the desk it was his right ankle he rolled it he goes no no way so he goes up to

the front desk and ask the dude and he goes oh my god imagine I'm not popping off all I'm doing is talking about what it means to be thought what it means to be possessed by his father it's like a breath of fresh air why because it's who you're created to be it's hid there it's the father he loves you unconditionally and if we would see it would wrecked you he goes dude you crazy so I'm doing the elliptical now I'm done my workout I'm right there looking at him at the desk and he's kind

of like looking over at me like freaked out but I got something to give him and everybody at the front desk in a minute imagine being able to be bold as a lion because the righteous are bold as a lion and you have been made right with God you are to be possessed you are to be a disciple why would the earth why would people not want this and they're like they do I promise they do everywhere I go they do everywhere I go doesn't matter everywhere I go even on the plane coming here like

I'm I'm touching attendance and paying for them and loving them and this guy comes up and he goes do you remember me he's an airline attendant I've only been here one time because yeah dude you were that guy that had that leg that was an inch and a half short he is yeah that was me I got how's it going he goes amazing bro he goes not I knew that was you I mean there's not many that looked like me probably he goes thank you so much man you haven't touched a bunch of people just

one guy I can't get you again cuz they was like the head guy and he walked past me said that hey dude I'm bit hey bro I didn't help that yeh got on my shirt [Laughter] I couldn't get to but I'm praying for the other one to other flight attendants got healed my plane there was a lady in front of me she's the UH mm I'm saying she's probably coming tonight I think she's an Ironman competitor she was on the plane spit in front of me she's like I knew that when you came on the

plane you had an energy I got all honey it's way more than energy it's him who was him and she watched these people she goes this is really awesome I said you're looking for peace I just I just texted my sister she's my twin sister she I said when I get home we'll find peace together I said honey peace has found you today right now on this plane and I just heard the gospel with her and she's like yeah pray look talking into it no manipulation no manoeuvring no trying to talk her into a headlock

and her grandmother in a prior act I'm not a crazy guy I am a fire starter I am son on fire I just want to live every day I want to live a life that's worthy of the call who one day I must stand before my father and he's going to say way to go it's really why I'm alive at every second of every day I can't live burning Jesus nobody will take you out of here I don't care how many years you've been a Christian no excuses man none none invite them all into the

things I'm in this thing God I want everything I could possibly have don't sit there in a place of not hungry don't be in a place where you're satisfied don't just make a conference where you come to just hear stuff don't don't do it burn up God to light you on fire I don't care what kind of wood you have it doesn't matter wet wood drive wood all wood burns it doesn't matter man you know it's easy to make disciples when you have people pick your fruits that of you trying to sell it to them

you don't have to talk people in them what kind of tree you are you don't go to cherry orchards and see cherry trees going cherry come on I am a cherry tree yay you don't see that no you're Christian and God is well pleased you are disciple and God is well pleased that you bear much fruit and your fruit remains that's who your daddy is you are fruit bearers for the king what kind of tree are you what are your roots going down deep into this is your roots card going down into the love of

God you will not bear the ripe fruit because then you'll know you're a disciple because of your love for one another that's me we don't know how I've been hurt drop your excuses man yeah we understand it it was someone in the church that hurt me so what it's just an excuse we don't know what they did to me it's about you you're the problem you know you understand what they did to me no me me me me yeah well you don't get it man up and through hell on earth well what did Jesus go

through to give you something for free what really did he do what did he do did he pay a price just to get you to heaven so you could have church or did he pay a price to get heaven into use you could be the church it's challenging I'm challenged every day I wake up god challenged me God I'm asking you to stretch me like silly putty oh my god I'm asking you to do something through and in and through me to me today that I've never had done before I'm asking you God Here I

am dude in me God don't leave me out of this thing father Here I am I'm hungry I'm knock at the door I know Jesus but man I want to know more I want to know more so I get off the elliptical and I walk up front to the desk I go hey dude I got to go to the meeting I said but this is your boy right I said yeah he said Josh the Justin but his ankle he says yeah I said let me see your ankle dude he goes how about it the dude

the gym pray for a cycle he goes that's so crazy man you kidding me you know we think of that which is Jesus bro he's like is awesome dude look to the guy behind the desk I said man jesus loves you cuz yeah man I'm actually going I actually am a member of the church you're preaching at tonight I'm like no way that's awesome you guys should all come man because we got to work I said come here I'm gonna pray for you guys Jesus thank you God okay I said to them here's what I

do see because I'm not the one you're not the one that seals the deal you don't have to go after someone to judge the vein remember this some Sun some water God brings the increase so when I'm witnessing and I'm sharing my heart out there I don't try to seal the deal every time man I don't there's a time where it comes in it all the time actually but I'm not trying I'm not praying for them so they pray my my prayer I'm not going for them for a motive I want love to be my

motive God so loved the world that He gave I want to be an amazing giver I'm going to wreck people with the reality of generosity and what it looks like to be a generous giver financially to waiters waitresses you want to wreck them with your tip I don't you guys tip here well you should start change your culture witness to a waiter telling about Jesus and then bless them and don't let them think that God to think when you leave [Laughter] come on it's ridiculous what an opportunity we have in front of us what are

you doing with the life that God gave you and are you going to allow the last 12 years to affect your next one day are you going to allow what you haven't seen to influence what you should see are you going to let what people don't see influence what you need to see or you'll allow the tragedy of yesterday and the hurts and pains from the church that hurt you or somebody that hurt you somewhere along the line to influence your relationship with God and leave that as a crust and then talk to people about

it and like gossip of the busybodies or are you going to get free from that thing and realize that people say things that they do they shouldn't say man people get hurt by the church and they think that they're justified in their attitude because they got hurt by the church I get it they shouldn't hurt you but you shouldn't got hurt by what they should have done you said known who you were when it came so you didn't get hurt by something they should have know better not to do why I have that stuff why

let that stuff be attitude man don't let that thing in you start to live with gratitude instead of attitude being a disciple is much more than just words in a book being a disciple is representing the master that you're being discipled by men everybody wants Jesus and if they see him I love Bill Johnson mention this he said that Jesus is the head you know and and he said the body of Christ needs to come in direct proportion to the head before Jesus comes back and he said if we represent Jesus well they'll want his

body mcdhh acts awesome if we represent them well they'll want the church they'll want to be a part they'll be like what can I do how can I help like this is amazing and they'll come in and they'll say yes to Jesus and that immediately go out and do the stuff but we as the church can't like hold them back headlock and say you're not allowed to run like that right now you need to chill out like you guys okay some of you aren't smiling dude get over you it was funny like I did a

periscope video with those guys the Gold's Gym I'm like yeah I'm gonna do a video man we're going to interview right now look what oh yeah dude just tell the camera what you thought also and I said to the guy behind the desk but I left I know it's amazing I kind of shared my heart with you a little bit this guy goes to church he goes the first thing my preach that he can tell you everything about what I just think what we just did here today have a good day too what happens we

pull other people in we live as an example to the body of Christ there are Christians everywhere you go like your nation has a lot of Christians in it even if they're silent ones so what happens is when you touch people you give them the right to actually be normal my life is a living example of normal I'm not some freak I'm a son that knows it I'm possessed because I'm a son
