Message
Clint Brown begins his sermon by expressing his appreciation for Dr. Rod Parsley and the ministry. He shares anecdotes from his Pentecostal upbringing, contrasting it with the freedom found in the current service. Brown focuses on Isaiah 54:17, emphasizing that no weapon formed against believers will prosper and that God will vindicate them. He introduces the theme "Hell and High Water," asserting that the enemy's goal is to silence believers, not to kill them. Brown encourages listeners to resist silence and to speak out against division. He explains that breath is for praise and that every victory in scripture was won through vocal expression.
Brown continues by explaining Isaiah 59:19, noting that when the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard. He connects this to the story of Hurricane Katrina, arguing that the problem was not the hurricane itself, but the flood that followed. He emphasizes that the response to the attack is crucial and that believers should not be silenced by fear or intimidation. Brown concludes by reminding listeners that God has already made promises to protect them and that they should stand on those promises, even in the midst of hell and high water. He references Revelation 12, where God gives the bride wings like an eagle to overcome the flood released by the enemy.
Closing
Following the sermon, the importance of sowing a seed into the fertile ground is reiterated. Different ways to give are presented, including online, by phone, or through envelopes. A prayer is led, asking God to transform lives and raise up a new standard of giving and living. The service concludes with a reminder of the upcoming afternoon and evening services and a farewell to the online audience.
