All we would not be the Holy Spirit.

You can be sober and so drunk you give me some Holy Ghost back home came to sober and you know what you just don't know me better not go back to the Holy Spirit because when you do things that you can't do that Peter. But when you keep reading what you see is the one chosen by God to message on Sunday but it was a scared one when Jesus got arrested.

He told Peter he said to me three times what you just a bunch of Jesus you pick me somewhere. I got your back window. Simon, Simon, he said Satan has the man to shake you like wheat you understand the Greek we read that sounds nice and proper. Satan asked for permission to the right shake shake Peter's life. And Jesus said, and when you're converted meaning God said you check them up because God takes what the devil uses for evil and turns around and makes it work so what shakeup is coming into your life and let it happen, but in serving the purpose of separate you from your and you won't be parted from your life exactly what happened.

He was shaken and one of the things that got exposed. He didn't have all that power and all that boldness that he thought he had told Jesus to go down.

Would you no matter what times that very night before Mets morning sun rose in the sky.

Three times Peter had been not knowing Jesus arrested Jesus they went after his followers and somebody said looking at Peter was a little girl.

You know what these people about me. So let me prove to them I don't know Jesus. He said blank blank blank blank space for you know the Bible he maybe is all he said, show model, no Jesus. He cut so all you and afterwards he was ashamed of himself. The Bible says he followed Jesus to the cross. But he followed from afar. Why because he didn't have the boldness he thought he had a power failure.

Just when you needed power.

You didn't have power in your life is a real things a power failure.

You gotta be full of the Holy Ghost because Jesus will betray him times to start and he prayed so long that a lot of the sermon read asked her when you get a chance it tells you what Peter said.

I mean he's bold step it up there declared all these wonderful works that religious people that they missed God. No man he is preaching that clear. So stop taking dictation just messes with many other words did he speak of the ball.

He brings along with me on the right that with many of the word.

Did he speak why goals change them from a man who would stand up in front of anybody clear who God was pleased to say anything about the Lord bless God bless you. You work for this company and we are a secular company and will send you the HR you start talking, great job nobody bats an eye. Jesus boldness with me why you do your job to be disrupt. The Holy Spirit tells you to do or say something you can't back all because they think they're answering to him and so being filled with the spirit we need to get that influence we need that influence urban areas as a child in Philly. We grew up with people in our neighborhood we call those people today that's politically correct, you will call people things like that in today's world. I get it.

Would you be arrested for living under the influence Pastor Paul with the rest of today's Destin message Into God's power. He was under the influence stuff. He went to the store when I had to cheat stuff all somebody you never saw that cheap stuff and he would always have yell but what was in the brownbag, and so we will need to stay with degrees something we need to be spiritual. Why knows we need to keep taking sips all the way sober people on the Holy Ghost on the power of God be like Joel chapter 2 in Joe's place is in the last over again so that we need to be under the influence of the Holy Spirit. We deal with people we deal with their crazy. You need to be under the influence where we don't even know when Jesus got baptized by John the Baptist in the gospel of Luke. Well you got baptized. Luke's gospel chapter 4 says he was led from that experience the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted. But he was filled with the Holy Spirit. In fact, when Jesus was baptized when he came up out of the water. The Bible says the Holy Spirit (in the form of a go and sat upon him, that was symbolic of the fact that Jesus was filled without measure to the Holy Spirit. So when the water spirit into the wilderness for what purpose to be tempted by the devil. But God was already ahead of the devil. Yes, I'm sending him to be tempted. Why because he's gotta be tempted in all points just like we are in the Bible says he was in all points tempted like us mean every temptation you face. He went through, it means he faced every category, temptation, and he shows us by the power of God you can overcome all temptations in his first epistle of first John chapter 2, there is a passage where it says love not the world of the things that are in the world world, the lust of the flesh and the pride of life. They are not of the father.

They are of the world will guess what those three categories are symbolic categories. All of us, we commit one of those categories a lot what your flesh wanted what your flesh wanted any thing that was not God's will, but your flesh wanted based on your eyes what you saw. The Lord is my shepherd, I see what I want you into simple trouble before categories. The pride of life. Sometimes I have things to consume things to be focused on things to make decisions based on product whenever you can apologize and you need to apologize that you can't treat.

You were truly God wanted you to do will stand in the way that James first Peter says that God raised, prowled, and he gives grace to the humble.

If you are experiencing God's grace is because you're too proud God resists the proud to have God resist me. God, God raised what how do you make sure he doesn't resist you, you humble yourself, you go hello say, Lord, have your way, not my will but your will be done in my life. And so Jesus was to those three categories look at them in the beginning in Luke chapter 4 goes and gives them the left of the flesh.

What you do on this 40 day fast hungry stone to be bread going to need it after the work was the problem was who was telling them the we don't take much notice from Satan and his body will but he said no I'm not given into the lust of the flesh.

I will leave but I will do it at the dictates of the devil, only to learn that right now in your life sometimes got some for you and you remember back in the here and he was famished and he got back home and he was famished and he's about to pass out, and his tricky brother Jacob. Jacob is cooking, stew. These all comes and here's how Satan like Jacob well okay just give me your birthright first. There was no stew anywhere on the planet that is worth your birthright care how good it is all that's not birthright and some especially some of us in today's world we are selling out. So stew comes in the person you see at the gym and knowing you and that you are waiving your flesh is stop looking holy stop all somebody you know the devil is cooking for you to speak to you see every time you come in and strike up conversation and you married or single weight loss somebody and you can know God is sending you pick you up at the gym, at least not in an improper way. You might be somebody, but the right live right to go say the right things and do the right things and not trying to pick you up and so you just got to understand the devil has a way of cooking up. Still, when you hungry and you learn to resist it and wait on God for your provision I came to tell some single yes I know you want to be with somebody but what you looking at now is not God's will for you that's not his plan why he give me to leave his wife and that's not God's plan for you so you wait for him to drop off so you can be the next messy make you understand that when she is in operation Holy Ghost that help you know the story there for. He showed them the kingdoms of the world show him the kingdoms of the world in an instant, and the glory of them will be done about about the kingdoms under satanic control, but they look good. They look glorious and he said give you if you will bow down and worship me. Lust of the eyes, and Jesus resisted that under the power the Holy Spirit and in the last was the pride of life.

Satan took him up on the pinnacle of the temple and said God cast yourself down because it is written the Bible to locate and Jesus resisted that sick get behind me, why because I don't tempt the Lord my God, I'm not going jump in here to prove that he will protect me.

You should do that either God and you make to God he didn't we follow his dictates will follow the dictates of our crazy minds telling you God will protect you when you're living under his influence. When you're doing silly things when it comes to live under so that no matter your life you can change in your life. Jesus said, apart from him. You can do nothing.
