Do Whatever He Says (John 2:1-11) | Pastor Kelvin Shaw (Sermon)

What would change in your life if your answer to Jesus was already yes?

In this message, Pastor Kelvin Shaw preaches from John 2:1–11 and leads us to the words of Mary at the wedding in Cana: “Whatever He says to you, do it.” Before the water became wine, before the miracle was visible, and before the servants understood the full instruction, obedience had to come first.

In a world that tells us to follow our feelings, trust our own reasoning, and choose our own path, Jesus calls us to a deeper life of surrender. The life of a disciple is marked by one unwavering commitment: when Jesus speaks, we obey.

This sermon will challenge you to surrender every area of your life to the authority of Jesus and discover that God’s greatest miracles often begin when His people decide that before He even speaks, their answer is already yes.

This is where the Lord has directed my heart and my mind. John chapter two, when you got it, say I got it. If you're still looking for it, say wait a second. Did I hear wait a second? Matthew, Mark, Luke, John. And it says on the third day there was a wedding at Cana of Galilee. And the mother of Jesus was there. Now both Jesus and his disciples were invited to the wedding. In verse 3 it says, And when they had run out of wine, the mother of Jesus said to him, They have no wine. Jesus said to her, Woman, what does your your concern have to do with me? I can't imagine me saying that to my mother. For my hour has not yet come. Look what his mother does. She doesn't even acknowledge what he says. She turns verse 5 to his servants and says, Whatever he says to do. Do it. Look at your neighbor and say, Whatever he says to you. Do it. Look at your other neighbor. Just to make sure we got whatever he says to do. Do it. Now there were set there six pots of stone according to the manner of purification of the Jews containing twenty or thirty gallons apiece. Jesus said to them, Fill the water pots with water. And they filled them up to the brim. And he said to them, Draw some out and take it to the master of the feast. And they took it. So they listened exactly what Jesus said. And when the master of the feast had tasted the water that had made wine and did not know where it came from, but the servants who had drawn the water knew the master of the feast called the bridegroom and said to him, Every man at the beginning sets out the good wine. And when the guests have well drunk, then the inferior, but you have kept the good wine until now. This the beginning of signs that Jesus did in Canaan of Galilee and manifested his glory and his disciples believed in him. Focusing on verse number five, his mother said to the servants, Whatever he says to you, do it. I don't know what you're facing today. I don't know what you've been praying about. I don't even know the answer that you've been waiting for, but I do know this that we're gonna learn from this scripture that could change the rest of your life forever. Whatever Jesus says, I do it. Whatever he says, and that's what I'm preaching this morning. Do whatever he says. Bow your heads, put your Bibles down, and I'm asking, Lord, to speak to the Lord and pray to him. Thank you this morning that he would have his way in your life. Don't worry about anybody else, but just call out to God yourself this morning. Thank you, Heavenly Father, God, for being in your presence. God, I'm asking you, God, to speak to our hearts, speak to our minds, speak to our souls, and let us be open to what your word has for us. I believe, God, somebody can hear your word, God, and be a doer of your word. I believe, God, you have instructions for somebody here today, God. And I pray, God, that we have a do-it spirit. God, we don't want to just hear and walk away the same way that we came, but we want to hear what your word says and do it, God. For we know when we follow your instructions, when we obey your word, God, you will open up the windows of heaven to our lives and we'll be able to move forward in the way that you would have us go. Lord, let your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. And God, move us out of the way, God, so that we can follow what you would have to do in Jesus' name. Somebody with everything that you have, say in Jesus' name, you may be seated in the presence of the Lord. Do whatever he says. Before we arrive at the wedding of Cana, it's important for us to first understand why the Gospels were written. Each writer of the gospel is writing about Jesus, but they are giving a different perspective from there where they sit. We know that the Gospels are Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. They're called the synoptic gospels because they speak about Jesus' life, but from different perspectives. It's giving us a full picture of who Jesus is under the inspiration of the Holy Ghost by and through their perspective. Matthew writes primarily to a Jewish audience because he is showing Jesus through his genealogy. And Jesus is the Messiah, the long-awaited King of kings and Lord of Lords. Jesus, they know that God is going to manifest himself into flesh. So Matthew writes to the Jewish people that are expecting God to turn himself into flesh and walk amongst them. So Matthew, from this perspective, he begins with the genealogy and traces Jesus' legal lineage through David and even through Abraham, because he is proving that Jesus has the rightful claim to Israel's home and Israel's throne. That's why Matthew chapter 1 and verse 1 says the book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham. Throughout this gospel, Matthew repeatedly tries to remind those people that it must be fulfilled, which was spoken of the prophets. Matthew's message is quite clear. Jesus is the promised king. But Mark takes a different perspective. Mark is writing to the Romans, or I would say, even the Gentile, and that is his audience. So Mark doesn't waste time, even though he's talking about Jesus with the genealogies or the birth narratives. No. He is trying to speak to the Romans, and the Romans they admire action, they admire strength, they admire authority. So Mark tries to present Jesus from this perspective. He is showing that Jesus has all the authority in the universe, but he is still the servant of the Lord. He comes with divine power and unwavering purpose. And his gospel does not open with a manger, but it opens with a message. You'll see in Mark chapter 1, verses 1 to 3, the beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Verse 2, as it is written in the prophets, behold, I stand my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you. Verse 3, the voice of the one crying in the wilderness, prepare the way of the Lord and make his path straight. Mark's favorite words throughout his gospel is immediately, because you'll see it often. He's saying, Jesus is immediately working, immediately working and immediately serving, immediately healing, immediately teaching and delivering. And Mark's message is clear. Jesus is the suffering servant who came to serve and give his life as a ransom for many. Is anybody thankful for Jesus doing that? We see in Luke that Luke is the beloved physician. And really he is a careful historian. And he writes Jesus from the perspective of the perfect man, the one that is the savior for all his people. Luke's gospel highlights Christ's humanity. That's why in Luke we see Jesus being concerned about humanity. We see him looking out for the poor, looking out for the outcast, looking out for the women, looking out for the children, and ultimately looking out for the sinner. Luke alone records many details surrounding Jesus' birth because he wants us to see that God has truly entered the human experience. He opens up with Gabriel, announcing to Mary, he says, For this is the Jesus unto this day, born in the city of David, Christ, who is the Lord. And Jesus, his message is very clear. Jesus is the Savior who came to seek and save that which is lost. But then John, John takes a turn in his writing. In fact, the Bible, if you look at it, it seems like it's all together. But can I tell you John writes his letter, his gospel many years after Matthew, Mark, Luke. And John tries to write differently than them. He tries to speak plainly, and he lets us know John 20 and 31, but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and believing that you might have life in his name. John is not concerned about giving us a chronological biography. No, he is not looking at just telling us about Jesus' birth. No, no, no. John is not trying to look at the human element of Jesus. Yes, Matthew proves that he is a king, and Mark reveals that he is a servant, and Luke displays his humanity. But John is trying to pull back the curtains of eternity. And he's saying that Jesus didn't start in Bethlehem. Jesus went before Abraham. He doesn't start in creation. And John he echoes his words. Come on, someone preaching the word of God. Somebody shout yes! John, his declaration to every reader. He's talking about the one who will attend the wedding in Canaan. He's not just a miracle worker, he's not just a rabbi, he's not just a prophet, but he is God manifested in the flesh. And it's this truth with what happens in Cana is so astonishing. John wants us to know before Jesus ever does his first miracle, before he ever preaches a sermon, before he ever calls his disciples to be more than ordinary men. The God that's wrapped in the flesh, the one who spoke life out of the darkness, the one who scriptures only speak about, is now at a wedding. Jesus in John 1, they talk about him. God manifested in the flesh. But now chapter 2. Jesus is at a party. He's at a wedding. John, what what what are you trying to get to us? Jesus, he starts and he's trying to reveal who Jesus is, and then we see Jesus at a seven-day wedding. Jamil and Erica. They just got married. It was a nice wedding. Jesus goes from God to manifest in the west too. In that custom, weddings lasted for seven days. Imagine planning and plan for one day. Imagine having to entertain all your guests for seven days. And in that custom, it was the responsibility of the bridegroom to honor his guests by providing a seven-day celebration. They had to mortgage their house for their wedding. To run out of anything would be a great embarrassment. They were supposed to provide for people to wake up, go to the wedding, leave at night, go to the house, and come back the next day. It would have been a stain on the family. People would have remembered that they ran out of wine for years later. They would have been known as the couple that didn't have enough food at their wedding. Imagine that. You go and you say, I didn't get a plate. I didn't get anything to eat. And this is only the third day. What are you gonna do for four more days without wine? And John writes one simple sentence that changes everything in this text. The Bible says this is where John says that Mary says they have no wine. Look at your neighbor and say, they have no wine. John is trying to paint a picture. Partying, having fun, doing everything that they want to do, but they have no wine. Throughout the Old Testament, we see that wine is often, and in the even in the new, often a depiction or a symbol of the Holy Ghost. It is a symbol of God's blessing, his joy, and his abundance. And ultimately it talks about the coming of the age. You'll see it if you talk to Joel chapter 2, verse 24 and 28 to 29. The vass shall overflow with new wine. And then declared, I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh. By the time Jesus arrives in Canaan, the wine has run out, and it's a powerful picture of the world that has exhausted all of its resources, but they get to a place where they have no wine. Is this not the condition of the world that we even live in today? Oh, there's more knowledge than ever before, but no wisdom. Oh, yes, there's more entertainment than we can even wrap ourselves around, but there's no joy, there's no wine, there's no joy. Oh, yes, we have great technology. I like technology, but yet, how come there's so much technology to keep us connected? Yet, loneliness is the main thing of the day. Oh, there's more possessions than ever before, yet there's still an emptiness in people's heart. Because there is no wine. Isn't it interesting? The world looks so fantastic on the outside, but on the inside there's something missing, and it's called the new wine. See, the the world will celebrate until joy ceases, and they realize we can party all night, but I still have no wine. Why is it that in humanity we can have everything and nothing at the same time? We live better now. Let's admit it. We live better, all of us, we live better now than any other generation lived in the entire system of humanity. But we're still empty. Let me ask. When's the last time you cooked over a fire stove? Just just wood, rocks around it? Raise your hand if if you've done that in the last five years. Okay, so somebody somebody's trying to mess with me here Okay, do you use that every day? Oh, okay. Um Brother Danny, you you actually where's your where's your camera here in the back? I saw your n your nice car. How many horses is your Your car having the engine two hundred or three hundred and sixty-five horses. You know, back in the day that would be physical horses. Horsepower. So we have cars that have three hundred and sixty-five horses, and back in the day we would have maybe one horsepower. And for s for many and some of us, we would have not even horsepower, we would have donkey power. What what kind of power is that? And those were the ones that were fortunate. There were those, Brother Danny, and I heard you. That's good. There was those that had foot power. And some of the foot power had no shoe power. Call them Ion foot. We live in a day that we have more than any other time behind us. But can I tell you, if we have no wine, we have no Holy Ghost, if we have no Jesus, we don't have anything at all. Church, can I tell you the world is looking for what you have? Look at your neighbor and say, I have wine. I don't need what the world is drinking. I've been filled for what heaven is outpouring. Can I tell you when I have the wine of Jesus Christ? I don't need anything. Can I tell the world? You can tell me what you have what you mean. Chasting after something higher that never satisfies. Oh, I'll just I I I was satisfied with the party yesterday, but tomorrow I need a better party. Because yesterday is gone. And I need something better today. And oh I I need a new relationship because that joker yesterday, they they did me wrong. So now I gotta get somebody better. And oh I I I got a nice purchase, but it that purchase gets dull after a while. And I I need a new purchase. Oh, I I got a promotion at work, but give it six months or a year, and now I'm at work wondering why am I going in here every day? Has that happened to anybody before? I listen, I was in recruiting before, and I saw so many people when they got the job, they say, I got the job. And then a year later they call me, Do you have another job? I said, What happened? Did you get laid off? You get fired? They said, No, I just I hate my manager. I can't stand this place. This was the same place that I, when I talked to, you were like, Woo, I got it. Now they don't give me enough snacks and they don't give me enough, I need a bonus. Can I get a promotion? You've only been there six months. But when you have the wine, when you have Jesus, the Bible says Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, and forever. Because when he's been good to me yesterday, I realize he's good to me today. And if he's been good to me today, I know he's gonna be better tomorrow. That's why I don't have to chase what the world is chasing. I got a peace that goes beyond all understanding. I got a joy unspeakable and full of glory. I got the Holy Ghost. Oh, that doesn't excite us anymore, but can I tell you, when we get the Holy Ghost, we got everything God wants for us. And guess what? The Bible says it's just our inheritance. So if you feel good about the Holy Ghost now, it's just a little down payment. When we all get the heaven I'm excited right now, get out of my way for my get out of the way. It's gonna be a job that I can't understand. So Mary says something to Jesus that is fulfilling a natural need but giving a spiritual principle. He says, when they had run out of wine, verse 3, the mother of Jesus said to him, They have no wine. Jesus responds to her, uh, this is not my time. My hour has not yet come. I I I've preached from this scripture before, and I preached uh things are about to change, and I spent a lot of time on this. I don't know if I preached it here, but years ago. And even that's interesting there. I won't go into it too far, but Jesus' mother, when he is born, multiple times in Matthew and Luke, it says that she sees great things about him as a child, and she ponders these things and keeps them in her heart because she knows there's a time that he's going to do what he's supposed to do. So when Jesus says, It's not my time, she says, Yes, Jesus, it's not your time, but it is my turn. I've been waiting for a long time. I've pondered these things in my heart all these years. Now, Jesus, it's time for you to perform. That's another message. But the entire story pivots on this one sentence. The wine has been run out, the need has been identified, Mary has brought the problem to Jesus. But she turns to the servants and says these key words, which I want to focus on this morning. Whatever he says to you, do it. Can I submit to you, church, that Mary's words recorded here are one of the greatest definitions of discipleship that we can get. Whatever he says to do, do it. She doesn't say whatever makes sense, do it. She doesn't say, do whatever is convenient for you. No. She doesn't say if it fits your personality and your culture, then do it. No, she's not even saying, if it makes you feel good, do it. No, she says, do whatever he says. She gives the statements to the servants. One word that will determine whether or not they experience God's glory. Hear me? One thing determines whether they see Jesus move or not. The one word is whatever. Look at help me out. Look at your neighbor and say, whatever. Now don't say it like the attitude, whatever, like whatever. Whatever is of the Greek word O T-I or Hoti. It literally means anything. Everything. No exceptions. Mary removes every condition before Jesus ever opens his mouth. Do anything, everything, with no exception what he says. You see, the problem with this generation is that the problem is Jesus hasn't spoken. He speaks all the time. The problem is we keep changing whatever to whatever I agree with. Uh-oh. Can I tell you we won't know Jesus until he tells us something that disagrees with us and yet we still follow him. Anybody can agree with and obey things that they agree with. Anybody can do that. If I said, okay, if you're is anybody hungry? I'm almost done. Is anybody hungry? If I said go out into the next door, and your greatest meal that you want to eat, the one that your belly is groaning for right now, is there for you. You would, and I said, even if you're hungry, you can get up and go right now. There's no food, don't do it. Get up and go right now. If you agree with me, you would get up and go no matter what's going on. Because it's easy to obey with what you agree with. What if I said, my favorite meal? I want you to all get up and go cook it next door. Most of us wouldn't agree. I'm not gonna tell you my favorite meal because then you're gonna come and people are gonna start making it. I'm not, I'm just using an example. But can I tell you agreement requires no sacrifice? Convenience never demands faith. And let me tell you this, comfort costs nothing. Faith is revealed when Jesus says, trust me, and I still don't understand what he's talking about. That's when whatever becomes real. Can I make it real? Jesus says, forgive. But my flesh says no, I'm gonna hold a grudge. Brother Johnson, you said it. I said, and even invite your friends, invite your family, invite your coworkers, even invite your enemies. Jesus went beyond me, brother Brother Johnson. He says, love your enemies. But our flesh says, no, I want revenge. Oh, y'all quiet. Yo, y'all. I don't want to give an example, but make somebody come and slap you in the back of your head right now. See if you'll say, Jesus loves me. This I know. For the body, or will you turn around and say, What are you doing? Jesus says, wait. And we want to say, no, but God, I want to go, I want to move on, I want to do something. Jesus saying, hold on. But Jesus, don't you know? I I I gotta move, I gotta schedule. What about when Jesus says to give? And we say, no, I I keep. Repent. And our flesh says, no, I'll excuse it. It's just one time. But Mary didn't say that. She says, whatever. Can I tell you? Whatever needs to become our answer. Whatever you want, Jesus, I'll give it to you. Whatever you say, Jesus, I'll do it. Whatever your will is, God, I'm for it. Whatever. We'll never experience everything God has for us until whatever becomes a part of our vocabulary. Remember Peter? Didn't make sense what Jesus was telling him to do in Luke 5, 5, and he says, nevertheless, at your word. Can I ask you a question this morning? What if the very thing you've been praying for is waiting on the other side of what Jesus has already asked us to do? Sometimes we spend so much time looking for a new word, but not obeying the last word Jesus told us. We were in prayer. And we had prayer requests. And in the prayer request, she raised her hand and she said, I have a prayer request. And uh they said, What's your prayer request? She's like, I'm asking the Lord for patience. And then she said something interesting after that. I'm asking God for patience, but I want it now. It was like, well, if you want patience, then the Lord is telling you, wait. It's like, Lord, wait on the Lord. No, but I want patience. If you wait, you'll get patience. Y'all still follow me? Someone say, I want peace. Isaiah would tell us, He will keep you in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on you. Isn't it interesting? He's saying, if you want a peace, keep your mind on me. But how is it that every time we want peace, it's because our mind is going chaotic? I want peace, God, but what's this gonna happen? What was my future? Well, who's gonna pay this bill? What's gonna happen for me next? Lord, where's the food on the table? I don't like this food. Keep your mind on me. Do whatever he says. Some of us want direction. Proverbs 3 and 5 says, Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge him and what he will direct your path. But why is it every time I want direction, I try to figure it out myself when it says, lean not unto your own understanding. If you want direction in your life, at some point you're gonna have to say, God, even if it doesn't make sense to me, I trust you with all my heart. Not not just some of my heart, Brother Davis, not just the bits of my heart that I like to give to you, but all my heart, all my thinking, all my ways when I give it to you. Then you'll direct my path. Maybe you're seeking salvation. And you say, Well, I don't, yeah, can I give you a story? I was teaching a Bible study one day, and and we were talking about salvation, and I was going and I was giving him the scripture after scripture, and he said, Hold on, he's like, Let's have this discussion, but leave the Bible out of this. I said, What you want to talk about salvation, and you don't want to use the Bible? I don't have any more discussion for you because I don't come to God in any old way that I want. Peter would tell us, repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ, for the remission of your sin, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Do whatever He says. But be ye transformed by the what renewing of your mind. It's interesting, and look what it says. Then that you may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God. God, I want your will. I've heard that prayer, I've prayed that prayer. God, give me your will, present your bodies. A living sacrifice. You know what conform? Does anybody know what the word conform means? Help me. Tell me what the word conform means. Do I need to walk around? Y'all just looking at me, Brother Daniel. What's conformed? Uh oh, let's not make this about yes, yes, adopt. Don't conform to this world. All the world is you know the world changes its style all the time. Let me, you're gonna show your age. But who at one time wore bell bottoms? Okay, yeah, Sister Cherry, I know. Just years, it goes out of style. I think I saw somebody other day wearing bell bottoms. What let me give you a better example. At our wedding, Sister Shaw. This is my fault. At our wedding, brother Davis, play some music behind me. This the story sounds better with music. Our wedding, I I convinced my wife. She said, I think she wanted to have this like no black suits. But I said, no, it's the style. We're gonna do chocolate brown pinstripe. You should have seen me on my wedding day. Now, when I look back at those pictures, I said, What were we thinking? And I realize I'm just like my parents. You know, those baby blue suits with the white trim. The world changes all the time. But it doesn't transform. It conforms. But it says, don't conform to this world. Be transformed. A metamorphosis. It's going from a caterpillar into a butterfly. You see, if you stay crawling too long, you'll never change. But God has something for you that He wants you to soar. He has a different environment for you that you might not even be in today. Transform. How do I transform? By the renewing of my mind. If I change my mind, everything else happens. Oh, I'm feeling the Holy Ghost. Somebody in here been struggling. Should I serve God? How am I gonna serve God? Change your mind. It means I was going this way, but I've changed my mind. Just started walking after Jesus. And anybody that chants to change my mind back, I'm not gonna do it because I found Jesus. Whatever coming to a call, music. The issue has never been whether or not Jesus is speaking. The issue is really am I listening? See, when prayer over this message and over this direction, I realize sometimes we want to we want a fancy extra word, a new word that will tickle my feet and tickle my belly and tickle my soul. But what about the last word that God has given us? Are we following that? Luke would tell us 11th chapter, 28th verse, blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it. Notice Jesus never told the servants what he was going to do. Picture this. Mary says, We want out of wine, and she says, do whatever he says. Jesus never says he's gonna turn the water into wine. They don't know what he's going to do. In fact, he says, go and fill up these water pots. Can I give you some biblical history? Those water pots weren't for drinking. Those were ceremonial cleansing water pots. They had 30 to 60 gallons. You know what they were for? Washing your feet. Now, if I go to your house and I ask for drinking water and I see you go in the toilet, y'all understand what I'm saying? You say go in the toilet and say, Here, this is fresh, purified. Picture it. Jesus doesn't tell him what he's gonna do, he says, just fill it up, and here's the miracle. They did it. It doesn't say they're saying, Jesus, what they need wine, what's gonna happen? No, they say, let's just go and fill up the water pot, bucket after bucket. This is a lot of gallons of water, they just do everything, and they fill six of them. Can I tell you faith never requires an explanation? Never requires an explanation. Faith only requires obedience, Jesus' commandment, and I do it. Church, hear me. Your miracle is not gonna be found in figuring out what God is gonna do for you. It's gonna be found in you saying, God, whatever, whatever you need, whatever you ask, whatever it is, I say yes to it. Stand with me. Maybe Jesus this morning is telling some of us, come back to me. Are you willing to do whatever he says? Maybe, maybe Jesus is talking to somebody and saying, I want you to repent and turn your life to me. Do whatever he says. I'm talking to somebody that's been trying to figure out how do I do this. God is saying, Trust me. Stop worrying about it, just give you everything to me. Do whatever he says. Don't compromise. Don't say, Well, I'm just gonna do this and that and the other. I'll just do what makes me feel good. Do whatever he says. Some of us is calling us to be baptized in his name. Oh, I'm not sure. Do whatever he says. Can I tell you this morning? Before you speak another word, your answer needs to be yes. That's my prayer for somebody today. But whatever God has been speaking over your life, just say yes. Maybe it doesn't make sense to you. Do whatever he says. Maybe you're not sure where he's gonna take you. Can I tell you? If you do whatever he says, God will take you to a place that you've never thought of. He'll take you farther in the Holy Ghost than you've ever imagined, he will direct your life better than you can. Imagine, imagine a car. Cars are getting so great with their technology, but imagine a car telling its creator where it's gonna go and how it's created and what it's created to be. Imagine a car telling its creator, I'm not meant to be a car, I'm meant to be a stove. How ridiculous would that look? You're trying to drive, and the car is telling you, no, just put a bunch of groceries in here and I'll cool it down. And you spoil all your groceries. Why? Because it's in it's it's weird for the creation to try to tell the creator what it's meant to be. How much more when Jesus is calling us, telling us, pulling things on our life? How weird is it for us to say, No, God, I have my own way. Do whatever he says. Hallelujah. Here's what I'm asking this morning. We're gonna start singing. But everybody here that's under the sound of my voice, if God has spoken to you about anything, I'm gonna ask you to come to this altar. If God has ever spoken a word, and you can make your way now. If God has ever said anything to you, I'm asking you to step out of your seat. And I want you to say, God, whatever it is that you want out of my life, whatever it is you're speaking to me about, I know there's more people that God is speaking to you. Come on, come on, thank you, thank you. I know there's more people that God is working on your heart. Don't worry about anybody else, but just say, God, I'm gonna do whatever you say. If that's you, thank you. Just make room in this altar. That's you, come, come. Yes, yes, yes. You see, don't think, oh well, I have a bunch of if I come to the altar, it shows that I'm not right with God. No, if you come to the altar, it shows that you're hearing from God. That's what I'm asking. If God is speaking to you, come. Breathe on me. That's it. Now, everybody close your eyes and lift your hands and say, God, whatever you say, I'm gonna do. Whatever you're calling me to, God, maybe you're telling me to deeper consecration. I'm gonna do it. God, maybe you're you're pulling the strings of my heart. I'm gonna do it. God, maybe you're saying there's a ministry that needs to be born in me. I'm gonna do it, whatever.
