WATCH!  God Has the Answer for Your Questions by John Kilpatrick and Greg Lancaster

When you have a question, as serious question, where do you go to find the answer?  Who do you ask?  Most people today go to Google to see if they can quickly find the answer.  Google’s mission statement is to “organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful.” Its vision statement is to “provide an important service to the world-instantly delivering relevant information on virtually any topic.”  There was a day that people would ask the one who was wise among them for answers about life, especially series questions.  Today, it’s like the wisdom of man has been replaced by the knowledge of man, i.e. Google or other “knowledge” search engines.  Notice that Google writes that their mission and vision is to “organize information” and “deliver information,” not wisdom.  

There is a big difference between knowledge and wisdom.  One difference is that knowledge is what, but not how or why, i.e. how to appropriately use the knowledge.  They say about sharing humor, telling jokes, that it’s important not only to know the joke, but to understand “timing.”  You can tell the exact same joke someone else told who had people falling all over the place laughing but told with the timing totally off it falls the ground like a led balloon while hearing the sound of the “crickets” because it’s so silent.  That is somewhat of a way to explain the difference between having knowledge with no wisdom and knowledge with wisdom.  When someone has knowledge without wisdom, many times they sound like a “know it all” who is seemingly rattling off what they “know,” what they “heard” what they “learned.” Most, listening to such folks, are looking for light at the end of the dark tunnel, built by their empty words of knowledge, hoping there’s an end to this painful experience.  Yet, when someone shares wisdom, it’s like honey to the soul.  It’s like a warm feeling inside that comforts you as it embraces and makes sense of the question you are asking.  It’s like a bridge connects you to “the other side” of your destiny.  It’s like a hand resting gently on your back while leading you through a rough patch in your life, business or ministry.  

Not only have many people not asked the wise person in their close circle, many have not asked God, Wisdom Himself, questions about their life.  Just as many don’t consider any worth in finding out or knowing who around them is the wisest, many don’t even consider that God has an answer; a wise answer for them.   

Of course, this is not true.  Solomon writes in Proverbs, “Wisdom calls aloud, she raises her voice in the public square; on top of the wall she cries out, at the city gate she makes her speech.”  God not only has answers for our questions, He is the answer.  He is all knowing.  He knows everything that ever was, is or will be at the same time.  Not only does He care about you and not only is He “in to you” He desires to be “in you” through accepting Jesus, His gift, His Son, as your Lord and Savior so you can be one with God and Wisdom itself.   

Think about it, since God loves you so much that He gave His Son, Jesus, to die for your sins, so that you and He can be in a relationship through Jesus, imagine how willing He is to answer questions you have for your life?   

Pastor John Kilpatrick shares what the Lord told him about this very thing, He shares how the Lord told him that His people have stopped seeking Him for answers and really don’t understand how and when to ask, or how God speaks.  Enjoy this interview where He shares deep wisdom that will comfort your soul with the warmth that only comes from God’s wisdom when it is shared.  It’s time you get answers to your life’s questions, whether it’s personal for yourself, marriage, family, business, ministry or leadership challenges, God has the answer.  Jeremiah got answers from God for us and shared it in Jeremiah 29:13 “You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.”  Enjoy watching this very informative interview.

Transcript: Jim Bakker Show interview with Pastor John Kilpatrick “auto generated” by YouTube

the Lord woke me up last week and this

was just a few days ago and whenever he

woke me up the Lord said to me

there’s been a famine of the word of the

Lord and that’s not talking about

sermons necessarily

you know we talk about the word of the

Lord we’re thinking about sermons and

it’s not even necessarily talking about

totally the word of the Lord the written

word of the Lord but it’s talking about

a famine of receiving the word of the

Lord

the Lord said I want you to tell the

people

they have asked me for things they have

prayed in praying is petitioning God for

divine intervention

that’s what prayer is petitioning God

our soliciting God for help

that’s prayer

every Christian knows how to pray every

one of us we go to God we know exactly

how to ask him we pray and we’re

passionate about it but the Lord said to

me that night he said I want you to tell

the people that I hear their prayers and

I will answer their prayers but he said

I also want you to let them know that I

want them to ask me things

and if they will ask me things not just

for things but if they’ll ask me things

I will answer them and the Bible says in

James you have not

because you asked not you have not

because you ask not

and so the Lord wants us to ask

questions there’s a scripture that I

just like to give you real quick as I’m

talking about this the Bible talks about

Jesus whenever he went in the temple he

was 12 years old and it said they went

up to Jerusalem him and his parents

after the custom of the feast and it

came to pass after three days they found

Jesus in the temple sitting in the midst

of the doctors and here’s what the Bible

says

he was both hearing

asking questions

and all that heard Jesus were astonished

at his understanding and his answers but

the Son of God was asking questions of

these doctors at 12 years old he was

asking questions the Son of God the

omniscient one was asking questions I

have a question for you

if Jesus asked questions why do you

think he would be offended if you asked

him questions

he wants to answer you he said for me to

come and tell the people of God the body

of Christ people are inquiring of me

our people are soliciting my help

they’re asking me for things but how

many are inquiring and asking me answers

to their questions and so the Lord is

now in the process of beginning to

answer questions now the other thing I

want to talk about is real quickly while

I’m on this subject

is when do you ask God your questions

and the answer to that is at nighttime

go back in your Bible and you break

everything down

to ask the Lord your questions at night

because when you go to bed that’s when

the Lord speaks when you’re on your bed

in the night seasons

and the Bible says that David made this

statement he said I will bless the Lord

who has given me counsel

and instructed me in the night seasons

as in Psalms 16 and verse 7 I will bless

the Lord David said who has given me

counsel and has instructed me in the

night season

Daniel when Daniel was upon the earth he

was friends with Nebuchadnezzar

Daniel course was Jewish Nebuchadnezzar

was Babylonian and Nebuchadnezzar was

asking questions on his bed

you see the questions need to be posed

at nighttime why because you’re about to

go into sort of a semi consciousness

that’s when God speaks when your mind

simmers down when your mind is not so

chaotic when the chatter begins to die

down that’s when God begins to speak and

he will bypass your mind and he’ll

answer right directly into your spirit

and it says this

he said daniel said to him you ask these

questions upon your bed

and he said as for the old king here are

the answers your thoughts came into your

mind upon your bed what should come to

pass Hereafter and he said the Lord has

sent me here to reveal these secrets and

to make known of you what should come to

pass here again here’s an ungodly King

he’s not Jewish he’s not god-fearing

but he’s laying on his bed Daniel told

him says you asked these questions when

you were on your bed he said while you

were on your bed you asked what will

come to pass what’s gonna happen

and Daniel said I have come to give you

the answer then Nebuchadnezzar responded

when Daniel interpreted his dream and he

says surely your God is a God of gods a

Lord of lords and a revealer of Secrets

what is it about asking questions at

nighttime

it says in Psalms 4 and 4 stand in awe

and sin not commune with your own heart

upon your bed and be still

so there’s something about communing

with God on your bed and asking God when

you’re about to go to sleep

I would recommend when a person goes to

bed everybody when they get ready to go

to bed they say many times you know when

people get ready at night to go to bed

they’ll say honey I’m about to go to bed

I’m getting ready for bed and then the

women will go in and they’ll take their

makeup off they’ll put on their lotions

people will brush their teeth they’ll

comb their hair you know they get ready

to go to bed and they put on their

pajamas they get out of their street

clothes they put on their pajamas they

lay down they cover up and they’re going

to bed they’re getting their body ready

for bed

but what the Holy Spirit said to me last

week is tell my people that we have now

entered into a season where the Lord is

saying don’t just get your body ready

for bed but get your spirit man ready to

hear from heaven ask your questions

while you’re still in the bed before you

go to sleep ask the Lord to questions

and the answer will come but the answer

usually comes in the morning

and the answer will usually come not

maybe not that morning the next morning

many times it will but the answer will

come in the morning

and so here’s what God said to Joe

and Jobe is the oldest recorded book in

your Bible Jobe made this statement he

said God speaks once

yay twice

and man perceives it not why when God

tries to talk to you in the daytime

you’re so busy

you’ve got people on your mind you’ve

got cooking meals on your mind you’ve

got taking care of your kids on your

mind you’ve got studies at college and

school on your mind you’ve got your boss

on your mind you’ve got all kind of

distractions all day long from the time

you leave home till the time you get

ready to for bed at night all kinds of

distractions all kinds of distractions

but the Bible says that God speaks once

J twice man perceives it not why because

he’s in his waking hours but it said in

a dream in a vision of the night when

deep sleep see there it is again deep

sleep falleth upon a man

it says in slum brings upon his bed God

will then open the ears of men and seal

their instruction

now here’s what that scripture means

when it says you’ll open the ears of men

and seal their instruction what that

means is this everybody has ears I have

ears you have ears jesus said he that

hath ears to hear let him hear he’s not

talking about these ears he’s talking

about the ears of the inner man

and he said when you’re at sleep and

you’re going to bed and you’re asking

God questions the Lord will open up your

ears he will seal the instruction what

does it mean by sealing destruction well

I’m not a drinker I don’t drink and I

wouldn’t promote drinking or advocate

drinking but yet when they seal a bottle

of wine

they put a cork in there and they sealed

up bottle of wine you can pop the cork

on that bottle of wine 10 years later 25

years later and that wine is aged and

matured and it’s still fresh and it’s

still a very powerful bottle of wine

because it’s been sealed what the Lord

is saying here is on your bed when deep

sleep falls upon men that’s REM sleep

slumbering upon the bed

that’s not REM sleep but that’s when

you’re coming out of a sleep and you’re

arousing in the morning then he opens

the ears of men but he seals the

instruction what does that mean by

sealing the instruction it means that

God seals the instruction in your spirit

so the devil can’t steal it

but if God opened your ears and told you

something and gave you the answer the

devil would steal that before you woke

up if he could but God seals it

he just seals it

like that wine bottle like that olive

oil bottle he seals it it’s sealed and

when you wake up that answer is in your

inner man and you may not hear a voice

you may not have had a dramatic

experience but when you wake up you’ve

got the answer and you know that you’ve

got the answer God sealed it while you

were asleep

and he said he does that that he may

withdraw men from his purpose and hide

pride from men in other words you don’t

have the wherewithal and you don’t have

the ability in yourself to come up with

that answer it’s going to take God to

give you that answer trust me on that
