  • When joseph had the dream of the seven skinny cows,
  • 00:04:34.778 --> 00:04:37.414
  • Of the seven skinny cows, the bible says this
  • 00:04:37.481 --> 00:04:38.349
  • The bible says this in genesis 41,
  • 00:04:38.415 --> 00:04:39.750
  • In genesis 41, it was a prediction
  • 00:04:39.817 --> 00:04:40.984

  • There came a blast from the east wind that
  • 00:04:47.858 --> 00:04:49.259
  • The east wind that sprang up in his dream,
  • 00:04:49.326 --> 00:04:51.662
  • Sprang up in his dream, and he saw the cows
  • 00:04:51.729 --> 00:04:53.130
  • And he saw the cows go from fat to skinny
  • 00:04:53.197 --> 00:04:55.399
  • Go from fat to skinny because a famine came.
  • 00:04:55.466 --> 00:04:57.501
  • Because a famine came. but notice what brought
  • 00:04:57.568 --> 00:04:58.602

  • The breath of life. he's always been in the wind.
  • 00:14:47.223 --> 00:14:50.760
  • He's always been in the wind. if you ever drive from
  • 00:14:50.827 --> 00:14:52.395
  • If you ever drive from california la area to
  • 00:14:52.462 --> 00:14:54.998
  • California la area to palm springs or going
  • 00:14:55.065 --> 00:14:57.000
  • Palm springs or going to vegas in --
  • 00:14:57.067 --> 00:14:58.401
  • To vegas in -- the road trip, we've done
  • 00:14:58.468 --> 00:14:59.836
  • The road trip, we've done that before with our family.
  • 00:14:59.903 --> 00:15:02.539
  • That before with our family. and there's one area
  • 00:15:02.605 --> 00:15:03.873
  • And there's one area where they have hundreds
  • 00:15:03.940 --> 00:15:05.175
  • Where they have hundreds of these big wind
  • 00:15:05.241 --> 00:15:08.411
  • Of these big wind propellers that are in
  • 00:15:08.478 --> 00:15:10.413
  • Propellers that are in valleys and sometimes
  • 00:15:10.480 --> 00:15:11.648

  • Just on the desert. but they've learned
  • 00:15:13.817 --> 00:15:14.651
  • But they've learned where the current
  • 00:15:14.718 --> 00:15:15.418
  • Where the current of the wind goes.
  • 00:15:15.485 --> 00:15:18.088
  • Of the wind goes. and i mean, you'll see
  • 00:15:18.154 --> 00:15:18.722
  • And i mean, you'll see thousands of them.

  • "good preaching, brother franklin."
  • 00:17:21.177 --> 00:17:21.978
  • Brother franklin." amen.
  • 00:17:22.045 --> 00:17:22.479
  • Amen. i agree.
  • 00:17:22.545 --> 00:17:25.682
  • I agree. i'm almost done.
  • 00:17:25.748 --> 00:17:29.219
  • I'm almost done. but what is interesting
  • 00:17:29.285 --> 00:17:30.353
  • But what is interesting about wind is this.
  • 00:17:30.420 --> 00:17:33.723
  • About wind is this. do you know that you can
  • 00:17:33.790 --> 00:17:34.791
  • Do you know that you can cause the wind to blow?
  • 00:17:34.858 --> 00:17:39.462
  • Cause the wind to blow? where does it come from?
  • 00:17:39.529 --> 00:17:41.698
  • Where does it come from? takes two things.
  • 00:17:41.764 --> 00:17:42.432
  • Takes two things. number one, you have to
  • 00:17:42.499 --> 00:17:43.366
  • Number one, you have to have high --
  • 00:17:43.433 --> 00:17:44.400
  • Have high -- a high pressure area up
  • 00:17:44.467 --> 00:17:46.936
  • A high pressure area up in the heavens and then
  • 00:17:47.003 --> 00:17:49.873
  • In the heavens and then you have to have
  • 00:17:49.939 --> 00:17:50.707
  • You have to have a low-pressure
  • 00:17:50.773 --> 00:17:51.875
  • A low-pressure area down here.
  • 00:17:51.941 --> 00:17:54.777
  • Area down here. and what happens is,
  • 00:17:54.844 --> 00:17:57.247
  • And what happens is, out of that low pressure
  • 00:17:57.313 --> 00:18:00.150
  • Out of that low pressure there comes heat,
  • 00:18:00.216 --> 00:18:03.753
  • There comes heat, and the heat is
  • 00:18:03.820 --> 00:18:04.787
  • And the heat is what goes up,
  • 00:18:04.854 --> 00:18:07.056
  • What goes up, and that's what fo --
  • 00:18:07.123 --> 00:18:08.358
  • And that's what fo -- gets the to moving down
  • 00:18:08.424 --> 00:18:10.994
  • Gets the to moving down through that cycle.
  • 00:18:11.060 --> 00:18:12.295
  • Through that cycle. in other words,
  • 00:18:12.362 --> 00:18:13.429
  • In other words, what i want you to
  • 00:18:13.496 --> 00:18:14.230
  • What i want you to understand is when you're
  • 00:18:14.297 --> 00:18:15.932
  • Understand is when you're in the low-pressure
  • 00:18:15.999 --> 00:18:17.400
  • In the low-pressure areas of life,
  • 00:18:17.467 --> 00:18:20.470
  • Areas of life, it's time to heat up.
  • 00:18:20.537 --> 00:18:23.473
  • It's time to heat up. it's time to
  • 00:18:23.540 --> 00:18:24.073
  • It's time to heat up your prayers,
  • 00:18:24.140 --> 00:18:26.509
  • Heat up your prayers, heat up your praise.
  • 00:18:26.576 --> 00:18:30.213
  • Heat up your praise. what do you do when you're
  • 00:18:30.280 --> 00:18:31.181
  • What do you do when you're low and under pressure?
  • 00:18:31.247 --> 00:18:34.350
  • Low and under pressure? you heat up.
  • 00:18:34.417 --> 00:18:35.885
  • You heat up. because if you want
  • 00:18:35.952 --> 00:18:36.953
  • Because if you want the wind to come,
  • 00:18:37.020 --> 00:18:39.155
  • The wind to come, it's going to take some
  • 00:18:39.222 --> 00:18:40.089
  • It's going to take some heat and low pressure.
  • 00:18:40.156 --> 00:18:43.026
  • Heat and low pressure. turn up the heat
  • 00:18:43.092 --> 00:18:44.060
  • Turn up the heat where you are.
  • 00:18:44.127 --> 00:18:46.029
  • Where you are. this is what elijah did.
  • 00:18:46.095 --> 00:18:47.597
  • This is what elijah did. the bible said that he
  • 00:18:47.664 --> 00:18:49.566
  • The bible said that he prayed and the servant
  • 00:18:49.632 --> 00:18:51.401
  • Prayed and the servant came and said,
  • 00:18:51.467 --> 00:18:52.502
  • Came and said, "i don't see nothing."
  • 00:18:52.569 --> 00:18:54.070
  • "i don't see nothing." and then, he turned up
  • 00:18:54.137 --> 00:18:55.338
  • And then, he turned up the heat and prayed again
  • 00:18:55.405 --> 00:18:57.106
  • The heat and prayed again and prayed again and sent
  • 00:18:57.173 --> 00:18:58.374
  • And prayed again and sent him back seven times.
  • 00:18:58.441 --> 00:18:59.909
  • Him back seven times. and on the seventh time,
  • 00:18:59.976 --> 00:19:01.177
  • And on the seventh time, the servant said,
  • 00:19:01.244 --> 00:19:02.445
  • The servant said, "there is a great wind
  • 00:19:02.512 --> 00:19:04.147
  • "there is a great wind that is coming and in
  • 00:19:04.214 --> 00:19:05.815
  • That is coming and in the wind is a hand,
  • 00:19:05.882 --> 00:19:07.383
  • The wind is a hand, and in the hand is a rain.
  • 00:19:07.450 --> 00:19:09.652
  • And in the hand is a rain. and something is
  • 00:19:09.719 --> 00:19:11.054
  • And something is headed our way."
  • 00:19:11.120 --> 00:19:12.422
  • Headed our way." because when you get in
  • 00:19:12.488 --> 00:19:14.224
  • Because when you get in that low pressure area,
  • 00:19:14.290 --> 00:19:16.326
  • That low pressure area, you have to heat up.
  • 00:19:16.392 --> 00:19:17.627
  • And a great wind,
  • 00:19:21.764 --> 00:19:23.533
  • And a great wind, and a great cloud,
  • 00:19:23.600 --> 00:19:26.202
  • And a great cloud, and great rain came.
  • 00:19:26.269 --> 00:19:28.404
  • And great rain came. now, i want to close
  • 00:19:28.471 --> 00:19:29.205
  • Now, i want to close with this, acts 2:1,
  • 00:19:29.272 --> 00:19:33.276
  • With this, acts 2:1, "and when the day of
  • 00:19:33.343 --> 00:19:34.110
  • "and when the day of pentecost was fully come,
  • 00:19:34.177 --> 00:19:39.148
  • Pentecost was fully come, they were all in

  • They were all in one accord, in one place."
  • 00:19:39.949 --> 00:19:44.387
  • One accord, in one place." i wanna get in one service
  • 00:19:44.454 --> 00:19:45.755
  • I wanna get in one service like this before

  • I want to get in one service where every windmill

  • Where every windmill is spinning.
  • 00:19:53.296 --> 00:19:55.298
  • Is spinning. no resistance, everybody.

  • In one accord and suddenly there came a sound
  • 00:20:06.843 --> 00:20:08.278
  • There came a sound from heaven as a mighty
  • 00:20:08.344 --> 00:20:12.215
  • From heaven as a mighty rushing wind, and it
  • 00:20:12.282 --> 00:20:14.384
  • Rushing wind, and it filled all the house

  • Filled all the house where they were sitting."

  • Where they were sitting." i want to be so
  • 00:20:20.957 --> 00:20:21.624
  • I want to be so sensitive to that wind.
  • 00:20:21.691 --> 00:20:24.427
  • Sensitive to that wind. "there appeared under
