  • When joseph had the dream of the seven skinny cows,
  • 00:04:34.854 --> 00:04:37.490
  • Of the seven skinny cows, the bible says this
  • 00:04:37.557 --> 00:04:38.424
  • The bible says this in genesis 41,
  • 00:04:38.491 --> 00:04:39.826
  • In genesis 41, it was a prediction
  • 00:04:39.892 --> 00:04:41.060

  • There came a blast from the east wind that
  • 00:04:47.934 --> 00:04:49.335
  • The east wind that sprang up in his dream,
  • 00:04:49.402 --> 00:04:51.738
  • Sprang up in his dream, and he saw the cows
  • 00:04:51.804 --> 00:04:53.206
  • And he saw the cows go from fat to skinny
  • 00:04:53.272 --> 00:04:55.475
  • Go from fat to skinny because a famine came.
  • 00:04:55.541 --> 00:04:57.577
  • Because a famine came. but notice what brought
  • 00:04:57.643 --> 00:04:58.678

  • Into man's nostrils the breath of life.
  • 00:14:45.898 --> 00:14:47.232
  • The breath of life. he's always been in the wind.
  • 00:14:47.299 --> 00:14:50.836
  • He's always been in the wind. if you ever drive from
  • 00:14:50.903 --> 00:14:52.471
  • If you ever drive from california la area to
  • 00:14:52.538 --> 00:14:55.074
  • California la area to palm springs or going
  • 00:14:55.140 --> 00:14:57.076
  • Palm springs or going to vegas in --
  • 00:14:57.142 --> 00:14:58.477
  • To vegas in -- the road trip, we've done
  • 00:14:58.544 --> 00:14:59.912
  • The road trip, we've done that before with our family.
  • 00:14:59.979 --> 00:15:02.614
  • That before with our family. and there's one area
  • 00:15:02.681 --> 00:15:03.949
  • And there's one area where they have hundreds
  • 00:15:04.016 --> 00:15:05.250
  • Where they have hundreds of these big wind
  • 00:15:05.317 --> 00:15:08.487
  • Of these big wind propellers that are in
  • 00:15:08.554 --> 00:15:10.489
  • Propellers that are in valleys and sometimes
  • 00:15:10.556 --> 00:15:11.724
  • Valleys and sometimes in mountains and sometimes
  • 00:15:11.790 --> 00:15:12.958
  • In mountains and sometimes just on the desert.
  • 00:15:13.025 --> 00:15:13.826
  • Just on the desert. but they've learned
  • 00:15:13.892 --> 00:15:14.727
  • But they've learned where the current
  • 00:15:14.793 --> 00:15:15.494
  • Where the current of the wind goes.
  • 00:15:15.561 --> 00:15:18.163
  • Of the wind goes. and i mean, you'll see
  • 00:15:18.230 --> 00:15:18.797
  • And i mean, you'll see thousands of them.

  • "good preaching, brother franklin."
  • 00:17:21.253 --> 00:17:22.054
  • Brother franklin." amen.
  • 00:17:22.121 --> 00:17:22.554
  • Amen. i agree.
  • 00:17:22.621 --> 00:17:25.757
  • I agree. i'm almost done.
  • 00:17:25.824 --> 00:17:29.294
  • I'm almost done. but what is interesting
  • 00:17:29.361 --> 00:17:30.429
  • But what is interesting about wind is this.
  • 00:17:30.496 --> 00:17:33.799
  • About wind is this. do you know that you can
  • 00:17:33.866 --> 00:17:34.867
  • Do you know that you can cause the wind to blow?
  • 00:17:34.933 --> 00:17:39.538
  • Cause the wind to blow? where does it come from?
  • 00:17:39.605 --> 00:17:41.773
  • Where does it come from? takes two things.
  • 00:17:41.840 --> 00:17:42.508
  • Takes two things. number one, you have to
  • 00:17:42.574 --> 00:17:43.442
  • Number one, you have to have high --
  • 00:17:43.509 --> 00:17:44.476
  • Have high -- a high pressure area up
  • 00:17:44.543 --> 00:17:47.012
  • A high pressure area up in the heavens and then
  • 00:17:47.079 --> 00:17:49.948
  • In the heavens and then you have to have
  • 00:17:50.015 --> 00:17:50.782
  • You have to have a low-pressure
  • 00:17:50.849 --> 00:17:51.950
  • A low-pressure area down here.
  • 00:17:52.017 --> 00:17:54.853
  • Area down here. and what happens is,
  • 00:17:54.920 --> 00:17:57.322
  • And what happens is, out of that low pressure
  • 00:17:57.389 --> 00:18:00.225
  • Out of that low pressure there comes heat,
  • 00:18:00.292 --> 00:18:03.829
  • There comes heat, and the heat is
  • 00:18:03.896 --> 00:18:04.863
  • And the heat is what goes up,
  • 00:18:04.930 --> 00:18:07.132
  • What goes up, and that's what fo --
  • 00:18:07.199 --> 00:18:08.433
  • And that's what fo -- gets the wind to moving down
  • 00:18:08.500 --> 00:18:11.069
  • Gets the wind to moving down through that cycle.
  • 00:18:11.136 --> 00:18:12.371
  • Through that cycle. in other words,
  • 00:18:12.437 --> 00:18:13.505
  • In other words, what i want you to
  • 00:18:13.572 --> 00:18:14.306
  • What i want you to understand is when you're
  • 00:18:14.373 --> 00:18:16.008
  • Understand is when you're in the low-pressure
  • 00:18:16.074 --> 00:18:17.476
  • In the low-pressure areas of life,
  • 00:18:17.543 --> 00:18:20.546
  • Areas of life, it's time to heat up.
  • 00:18:20.612 --> 00:18:23.549
  • It's time to heat up. it's time to
  • 00:18:23.615 --> 00:18:24.149
  • It's time to heat up your prayers,
  • 00:18:24.216 --> 00:18:26.585
  • Heat up your prayers, heat up your praise.
  • 00:18:26.652 --> 00:18:30.289
  • Heat up your praise. what do you do when you're
  • 00:18:30.355 --> 00:18:31.256
  • What do you do when you're low and under pressure?
  • 00:18:31.323 --> 00:18:34.426
  • Low and under pressure? you heat up.
  • 00:18:34.493 --> 00:18:35.961
  • You heat up. because if you want
  • 00:18:36.028 --> 00:18:37.029
  • Because if you want the wind to come,
  • 00:18:37.095 --> 00:18:39.231
  • The wind to come, it's going to take some
  • 00:18:39.298 --> 00:18:40.165
  • It's going to take some heat and low pressure.
  • 00:18:40.232 --> 00:18:43.101
  • Heat and low pressure. turn up the heat
  • 00:18:43.168 --> 00:18:44.136
  • Turn up the heat where you are.
  • 00:18:44.203 --> 00:18:46.104
  • Where you are. this is what elijah did.
  • 00:18:46.171 --> 00:18:47.673
  • This is what elijah did. the bible said that he
  • 00:18:47.739 --> 00:18:49.641
  • The bible said that he prayed and the servant
  • 00:18:49.708 --> 00:18:51.476
  • Prayed and the servant came and said,
  • 00:18:51.543 --> 00:18:52.578
  • Came and said, "i don't see nothing."
  • 00:18:52.644 --> 00:18:54.146
  • "i don't see nothing." and then, he turned up
  • 00:18:54.213 --> 00:18:55.414
  • And then, he turned up the heat and prayed again
  • 00:18:55.480 --> 00:18:57.182
  • The heat and prayed again and prayed again and sent
  • 00:18:57.249 --> 00:18:58.450
  • And prayed again and sent him back seven times.
  • 00:18:58.517 --> 00:18:59.985
  • Him back seven times. and on the seventh time,
  • 00:19:00.052 --> 00:19:01.253
  • And on the seventh time, the servant said,
  • 00:19:01.320 --> 00:19:02.521
  • The servant said, "there is a great wind
  • 00:19:02.588 --> 00:19:04.223
  • "there is a great wind that is coming and in
  • 00:19:04.289 --> 00:19:05.891
  • That is coming and in the wind is a hand,
  • 00:19:05.958 --> 00:19:07.459
  • The wind is a hand, and in the hand is a rain.
  • 00:19:07.526 --> 00:19:09.728
  • And in the hand is a rain. and something is
  • 00:19:09.795 --> 00:19:11.129
  • And something is headed our way."
  • 00:19:11.196 --> 00:19:12.497
  • Headed our way." because when you get in
  • 00:19:12.564 --> 00:19:14.299
  • Because when you get in that low pressure area,
  • 00:19:14.366 --> 00:19:16.401
  • That low pressure area, you have to heat up.
  • 00:19:16.468 --> 00:19:17.703
  • And a great wind,
  • 00:19:21.840 --> 00:19:23.609
  • And a great wind, and a great cloud,
  • 00:19:23.675 --> 00:19:26.278
  • And a great cloud, and great rain came.
  • 00:19:26.345 --> 00:19:28.480
  • And great rain came. now, i want to close
  • 00:19:28.547 --> 00:19:29.281
  • Now, i want to close with this, acts 2:1,
  • 00:19:29.348 --> 00:19:33.352
  • With this, acts 2:1, "and when the day of
  • 00:19:33.418 --> 00:19:34.186
  • "and when the day of pentecost was fully come,
  • 00:19:34.253 --> 00:19:39.224
  • Pentecost was fully come, they were all in

  • They were all in one accord, in one place."
  • 00:19:40.025 --> 00:19:44.463
  • One accord, in one place." i wanna get in one service
  • 00:19:44.529 --> 00:19:45.831
  • I wanna get in one service like this before

  • I die and go to heaven. i want to get in one service

  • I want to get in one service where every windmill

  • Where every windmill is spinning.
  • 00:19:53.372 --> 00:19:55.374
  • Is spinning. no resistance, everybody.

  • "they were in one place in one accord and suddenly

  • In one accord and suddenly there came a sound
  • 00:20:06.918 --> 00:20:08.353
  • There came a sound from heaven as a mighty
  • 00:20:08.420 --> 00:20:12.291
  • From heaven as a mighty rushing wind, and it
  • 00:20:12.357 --> 00:20:14.459
  • Rushing wind, and it filled all the house
  • 00:20:14.526 --> 00:20:19.064
  • Filled all the house where they were sitting."

  • Where they were sitting." i want to be so
  • 00:20:21.033 --> 00:20:21.700
  • I want to be so sensitive to that wind.
  • 00:20:21.767 --> 00:20:24.503
  • Sensitive to that wind. "there appeared under
