(Music)
JERRY: Welcome everyone. I'm Jerry Savelle. Thank you for
joining me today. I pray that, as you watch the message that
I'm about to share with you, that God is going to touch your
life in a very special way. We believe that, as we bring these
lessons to you each and every week, that your life is going to
change. You're going to get a revelation of who you are in
Christ, what you can do in Christ, what belongs to you in
Christ, and how to appropriate those spiritual laws and see a
major difference in your life. Thank you once again, in
advance, for joining me each and every week. If you're a new
viewer, we welcome you, and we thank God for your watching. I
hope to hear from you real soon. You know, we preach in meetings
all over the world. I want to encourage you to write to us and
find out our schedule, because we may be coming to your area,
and I'd love to have the opportunity to impart to you on
a live basis, other than just a television set. I believe,
praise God, if you'll get that itinerary, you can write to us
or log onto our ministry, find out where I'll be, and come and
join us in a meeting in your area. We're talking about Show
Me Your Glory. It's a manifestation of God's presence,
God's power, and God's goodness. I'm taking you back into the
live service, where I was preaching this at Heritage Faith
Christian Center, our church here in Crowley, Texas. It was a
powerful meeting, powerful service. I believe there was
some great revelation that came forth. I want you to hear it and
receive it so that you can position yourself to experience
the glory of God, and particularly in the area of
financial blessing. Watch now, and I'll be back
at the end with some closing remarks.
JERRY: Jesus said, Matthew 9:29, "According
to your faith, be it unto you." It's according to your
faith. In other words, harvest is dependent upon faith. If
you're not exercising any faith on the harvest, you've given up
on your harvest, then no wonder we're not experiencing the kind
of harvest that the Bible says we're entitled to. Now, once
again, Galatians 6:9 says, "And let us not be weary in
well doing, for in due season, we shall reap if we faint
not." The Message translation says, "If we don't give up or
quit, then the harvest will come." What have we learned
here at this church, over the years? Quitting is not an
option. Look to your neighbor and say, quitting is still not
an option. CONGREGATION: Quitting is still not an option.
JERRY: Most people don't think that way. The majority usually
give up. You have to ask yourself this question: How
important is my harvest to me? How desperate am I for my
harvest? Quitting is easy. Anyone can quit. Sticking with
it takes discipline. Without discipline, it's not likely that
you'll ever experience the kind of harvest that God promises in
His Word. Another important factor is stay motivated. Stay
inspired. Stay enthusiastic. How do I get that way, Brother
Jerry? Well, stay in the Word. CONGREGATION: Come on. Come on,
amen. JERRY: Stay in church. Stay around people of faith.
Worst thing you can do, when you're believing for a harvest
and you're not seeing it, is to get around people that don't
believe in the harvest. Anticipate the harvest. Just as
important, don't listen to people who don't think you're
entitled to a harvest. Let God's Word be final authority. Can you
say amen? CONGREGATION: Amen. JERRY: I'm not saying that I've
reaped a hundredfold on every seed I've sown, but I have many
times. I'm not even going to talk about anymore the
hundredfold. I'm just calling it maximum harvest. CONGREGATION:
That's great. That's right. JERRY: How many of you need a
maximum harvest? CONGREGATION: All right! Hallelujah! JERRY:
That can be whatever you're capable of believing for. Can
you say amen? CONGREGATION: Amen. JERRY: Maximum harvest.
All right, now listen to this. Psalm 20 ... Go there with me
real quick. Psalm 20, and look at verse 1, "The Lord hear
thee in the day of trouble. The name of the God of Jacob defend
thee, send thee help from the sanctuary, strengthen thee out
of Zion, remember all thy offerings." Remember all thy
offerings. He remembers all our offerings. He remembers all our
offerings. The last word in that little verse is "Selah."
Stop and think about this. Stop and meditate on this. I wrote in
my Bible, years ago when I read that Scripture, "God never
forgets a seed sown." God never forgets a seed sown. Now, if you
look in Acts chapter 10, verses 1 through 4, you'll find a man
by the name of Cornelius. It says, from the Amplified Bible,
"Your prayers and gifts of charity have ascended as a
memorial offering before God." Notice your prayers. Not only
his prayers, but his gifts, his seed, his offerings. They came
up as a memorial offering before God. Here, the word memorial
literally means a preserved memory in the mind of God.
Hallelujah. A preserved memory in the mind of God ... that
means you can never sow a seed that God will ever forget.
CONGREGATION: Hallelujah. JERRY: Hallelujah. CONGREGATION:
Hallelujah! Whew! JERRY: Now, if God's not going to forget your
seeds, why would you? CONGREGATION: Amen, amen. Come
on. JERRY: I produced a journal several years ago, a Seedtime
and Harvest Journal, where people could record the seeds
that they've sown, and then, when the harvest came in,
document it, just as a point of contact. Keep the vision before
you. God never forgets a seed sown. Every offering is
preserved in memory, in the mind of God. Since He's the One who
established the law of seedtime and harvest, then why can't we
expect to receive a harvest off of every seed we sow? Can you
say amen? CONGREGATION: Amen. JERRY: All right, finally go to
James chapter 5. Before we read James, Exodus 33, verse 18,
which we have made as our theme, "Lord, show me Your glory."
Second Kings 19:19, "Now therefore, O Lord, our Lord, I
beseech Thee." Notice the same words used here in 2 Kings that
Moses used in Exodus 33, "I beseech Thee." "Now
therefore, O Lord, our God, I beseech Thee. Save now Thou us
out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know
that Thou art the Lord God, even Thou only." The Assyrian army
... What this is referring to, the Assyrian army is endeavoring
to overtake the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and they've already
left them in great distress. Now, out of desperation and
urgency, he's praying to see the glory of God come on the scene.
Hezekiah calls on God, and notice how he, too, uses the
words, "I beseech Thee." In Nehemiah 1, versus 5 and 6,
"And said, I beseech Thee, O Lord God of Heaven, let Thine
ear now be attentive, and Thine eyes open, that Thou mayest hear
the prayer of Thy servant." Nehemiah has received a report
of how they ... that many of God's people are still in
captivity, and they were experiencing great affliction,
and how Jerusalem's walls were broken down, and it's gates were
on fire. Out of his desperation and urgency, he calls on God and
uses the same words, "I beseech Thee." Then in Psalm
118, verse 25, David says, "Save now, I beseech Thee, O
Lord. O Lord, I beseech Thee, send now prosperity." What I'm
seeing is this. Prosperity, harvest on seed sown, is just as
much a manifestation of the glory of God as His presence,
His power, and His goodness. CONGREGATION: That's right!
Amen. Praise God. Amen. Come on! Amen. JERRY: I beseech Thee.
Once again, it denotes desperation and urgency, a sense
of urgency. How many of you have a sense of urgency, where your
harvest is concerned? CONGREGATION: That's right.
Amen. JERRY: I need my harvest. CONGREGATION: Me, too. Amen.
JERRY: I said, I need my harvest. CONGREGATION: Yes! Yes,
brother, amen. Amen. JERRY: I sowed it in faith. I sowed it in
joy. I sowed it, counting it a great honor that I had the
ability and the privilege to do so. This is the way I live. This
is the way Carolyn lives. It's the way this ministry operates.
Amen? CONGREGATION: Amen. JERRY: I believe I have every right to
say, just like David said, "Lord, O Lord, I beseech
Thee." David said it twice. "I beseech Thee, O Lord, send
now prosperity." How many of you, that could be your prayer
today? CONGREGATION: Amen. JERRY: Lord ... Say it with me.
Lord ... CONGREGATION: Lord ... JERRY: O Lord ... CONGREGATION:
O Lord ... JERRY: I beseech Thee. CONGREGATION: I beseech
Thee. JERRY: Lord ... CONGREGATION: Lord ... JERRY: I
beseech Thee. CONGREGATION: I beseech Thee. JERRY: Send now
prosperity. CONGREGATION: Send now prosperity. JERRY: Say, I
need to see my harvest. CONGREGATION: I need to see my
harvest. JERRY: Hallelujah? CONGREGATION: Yes! JERRY: Now,
the word beseech, once again, shows desperation and urgency.
It's an appeal to God, listen to this, for justice to be served,
just like He promised in His Word. Psalm 31:23 says, "For
the Lord preserveth the faithful." That's a promise.
If you've been a faithful sower, then you have this promise. God
will preserve you. He's not going to let you go under.
CONGREGATION: That's right. That's right. JERRY: Psalm 16:1,
David said, "Preserve me, O God, for in Thee do I put my
trust." Then Psalm 32:7 says, "Thou shalt preserve me from
trouble." Notice this is God's promise to faithful people. They
will be preserved, and preserve, here, means to keep, to save, to
defend, to uphold, to sustain, and to keep in a sound state.
Hallelujah. CONGREGATION: Hallelujah. Hallelujah. JERRY:
In other words, God will show them His glory. Now, David was a
sower, so he had every right to believe for prosperity. He had
every right to believe for harvest on the seeds that he
sowed. Listen to 1 Chronicles 29:3. "Moreover," David
speaking, "because I have set my affection to the house of my
God, I have of my own proper good, of gold and silver, which
I have given to the house of my God, over and above all that I
had prepared for the holy house." Now, listen to the
Message translation. "Furthermore, because my heart
is in this, in addition to and above what I have gathered, I'm
turning over my personal fortune of gold and silver, for making
this place of worship for my God." The Message translation
indicates that the amount of gold and silver he gave was
this: 113 tons of gold and 214 tons of silver. The boy was a
giver, amen? A sower. CONGREGATION: Amen. JERRY: Then
he says to the people, "And now, how about you? Who among
you is ready and willing to join in this giving. Then they
responded," the people responded, "by giving 188 tons
of gold, 377 tons of silver, 679 tons of bronze, and 3775 tons of
iron." Wouldn't you like to have pastored that church? When
they had finished giving, David says, in his closing prayer,
"Blessed are You, God of Israel, our father, to You
belongs greatness and might and glory and splendor. Riches and
glory come from You." CONGREGATION: Amen. Thank You,
Jesus. JERRY: "Riches and glory come from You," amen?
CONGREGATION: Amen. JERRY: He's the Author of it. Don't get mad
at me. I'm just reading the Bible. All right, now, let's go
to James real quick, James chapter 5. Don't allow Satan to
steal your harvest. CONGREGATION: Amen! Hallelujah.
JERRY: James chapter 5 ... James is referring to wicked people,
here, people that don't have a heart for God. In verse 1, he
says, "Go to, now, ye rich men. Weep and howl for your
miseries that shall come upon you. Your riches are corrupted,
and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver
is cankered, and the rust of them shall be a witness against
you and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped
treasure together for the last days. Behold, the hire of the
laborers, who have reaped down your fields, which is of you
kept back by fraud, crieth." Now, who's crying here? Notice,
the hire, the hire, in other words, what rightfully belonged
to these people, that were working this man's fields, are
crying out for the people that it rightfully belongs to. Are
you hearing this? CONGREGATION: Yes. JERRY: It said, "The hire
of the laborers, who have reaped down your fields, which is of
you kept back by fraud." Now fraud implies deception,
deceitfulness, deliberate trickery, so as to keep
something from someone that rightfully belongs to them.
Doesn't that sound like the devil? CONGREGATION: Yes. JERRY:
Then it says, "Behold," I'm sorry, verse 5. Oh, let's back
up to verse 4. I'm not through. "Kept back by fraud crieth,
and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears
of the Lord of sabaoth." That's not sabbath. It's
sabaoth. That word, sabaoth, means host. The Lord of hosts.
It's a reference to angels. Notice, two cries are taking
place. Number one is the wages that rightfully belong to the
people that worked his fields. Then the second cry is coming
from the people who worked the fields, and to whom it
rightfully belonged. Two cries are taking place. Look at your
neighbor and say, two cries. CONGREGATION: Two cries. JERRY:
Look at it this way. The harvest, that belongs to you and
belongs to me, is crying out for its rightful owner.
CONGREGATION: Yes! Amen! Preach it! Hallelujah. Amen. Thank You,
Lord. JERRY: Your harvest is crying! Now, the word crying,
here, does not mean sadness, sorrow. It is a loud utterance
in protest or opposition, demanding immediate action.
CONGREGATION: Whew! JERRY: Hallelujah! CONGREGATION: Amen!
Hallelujah! JERRY: I love that. Praise God. Your harvest is
crying. Everybody put your hand over an ear, like this. Act like
you're listening. Look at your neighbor and say, do you hear
that? CONGREGATION: Do you hear that? JERRY: Say, that's my
harvest. CONGREGATION: That's my harvest. JERRY: That's my
harvest crying, crying out for me. Hallelujah. Amen. There have
been some times when I've landed at an airport, and I'd see on
the field the type airplane that I was believing for. Sometimes,
I'd walk up to the window, or as close as I could get to that
airplane, and I'd say, "Are you my harvest? Are you waiting?
Have you been looking for me?" Amen. Get this. Your harvest is
crying out for you right now. While you're sitting right here
in this building, your harvest is crying out for you.
CONGREGATION: Whew! Thank You, Lord. Amen, amen. JERRY: Now,
there's only one thing missing. Most people that it belongs to
are not crying out for it. It's harvest time. Harvest time-
CONGREGATION: Harvest time! Amen! JERRY: Harvest time ...
Harvest time is really harder than sowing time. CONGREGATION:
Come on. That's right. JERRY: More work- CONGREGATION: That's
right. JERRY: But they do it with a smile on their face. I
don't ever remember my grandpa saying, "Son, we've got to go to
the field. It's time to harvest all that stuff again. Son, get
up. Boy, it's harvest time." He did it with a smile on his face.
My point is this. Are we crying out for our harvest? Our harvest
is crying out for us. There needs to be a divine
appointment, where you and your harvest come together. Are you
receiving this today? CONGREGATION: Yes! Amen! JERRY:
Be aggressive about it. That means sometime, while everybody
else is sleeping, you're standing up on the bedroom
floor, speaking to your harvest, and commanding the devil, the
one who is holding it back, to take his hands off your harvest.
God's not holding it back. He's the Lord of sabaoth. He's the
Lord of hosts. I believe, personally, and I don't have
time to teach on it ... I'd love to teach a whole session on it.
There are harvesting angels. That's their assignment. Loose
the angels, hallelujah. Angels, go help gather up my harvest.
Praise God! In the name of Jesus, harvest come into my
life! I'm crying out for you, harvest. The Bible says in
Matthew chapter 11 that the violent take it by force, amen?
You can't be mamby-pamby with this, because the devil will
just laugh at you and keep holding back, by fraud, your
harvest. Let's get serious. We need our harvest. Anybody need
your harvest? CONGREGATION: Yes! Amen! JERRY: Hallelujah. Stand
to your feet right now, and let's pray. Hallelujah. Say this
with me. Heavenly Father ... CONGREGATION: Heavenly Father
... JERRY: In the name of Jesus ... CONGREGATION: In the name of
Jesus ... JERRY: I receive Your Word today. CONGREGATION: I
receive Your Word today. JERRY: I know that I know ...
CONGREGATION: I know that I know ... JERRY: That it pertains to
me ... CONGREGATION: That it pertains to me ... JERRY:
Because I'm a sower. CONGREGATION: Because I'm a
sower. JERRY: If I'm a sower, then I should be a reaper.
CONGREGATION: If I'm a sower, then I should be a reaper.
JERRY: I've got seed in the ground. CONGREGATION: I've got
seed in the ground. JERRY: It's in good ground. CONGREGATION:
It's in good ground. JERRY: You promise a harvest. CONGREGATION:
You promise a harvest. JERRY: I've discovered in the Word
today ... CONGREGATION: I've discovered in the Word today ...
JERRY: That my harvest is crying out for me. CONGREGATION: That
my harvest is crying out for me. JERRY: What I need to do ...
CONGREGATION: What I need to do ... JERRY: Is cry out for it ...
CONGREGATION: Is cry out for it ... JERRY: And be consistent
about it ... CONGREGATION: And be consistent about it ...
JERRY: And don't give up ... CONGREGATION: And don't give up
... JERRY: And don't quit ... CONGREGATION: And don't quit ...
JERRY: And don't become weary. CONGREGATION: And don't become
weary. JERRY: Keep doing it ... CONGREGATION: Keep doing it ...
JERRY: Until it comes. CONGREGATION: Until it comes.
JERRY: I beseech Thee, Lord. CONGREGATION: I beseech Thee,
Lord. JERRY: Send now prosperity. CONGREGATION: Send
now prosperity. JERRY: Show me my harvest. CONGREGATION: Show
me my harvest. JERRY: Show me Your glory. CONGREGATION: Show
me Your glory. JERRY: I receive it ... CONGREGATION: I receive
it ... JERRY: In the name of Jesus. CONGREGATION: In the name
of Jesus. JERRY: Give the Lord your best shout. Hallelujah.

JERRY: Did you enjoy the message today? I pray that you
did, and I pray, praise God, that not only you heard it, but
I believe you received it. If you received it, then I want to
encourage you to act upon it. You know, you're entitled to a
harvest on every seed that you sow. God never forgets a seed
sown. I want to encourage you to believe God for that harvest.
Don't give up on it, because God is wanting to bless you
financially, so that you not only have your needs met, but
you have more than enough to get involved in the needs of others,
have more than enough to get involved in the needs of your
church and help missions all over the world. God wants you to
have an abundant harvest. Begin to learn to say, "Lord, show
me Your glory, and show me my harvest." Praise God. You
know, there's a Scripture in Psalm 65, verse 11. It's from
the psalmist, David. This is what I'm praying for each and
every one of you. This is one I pray over my partners all the
time, Psalm 65:11. He says, "Thou crownest the year with
Thy goodness, and Thy paths drop fatness." He said, "You
crown the year with Your goodness." That's a
manifestation of the glory of God. The word crown, there,
means my year will culminate in prosperity, in goodness. That
word fatness, "your paths drop fatness," in a little Hebrew,
it means prosperity and abundance. That's the kind of
year God wants you to have. I'm praying that for you right now,
that God will crown your year with His goodness, and His paths
will drop prosperity and abundance in your life every
day, praise God, so once again, not only your needs are met, but
you can get involved in the needs of others and help promote
the Gospel all over the world. I want to encourage you to place
your order for our special offer this week. This will be the last
time, in this series, that we'll be offering this. Maybe we'll
offer it again later on in the year, but my brand new book,
Show Me Your Glory ... It contains all the teaching that
you've been hearing on these broadcasts, and then also, six
CDs on the same subject, where I had the opportunity to preach
this in six services in one church. I'm telling you, the
revelation that you'll gain from this is absolutely amazing. Log
onto our website. Find out how to place your order, or call the
number that's on the screen. Get these resources into your home
as quickly as you possibly can. I know you'll enjoy them.
There's some testimonies that I want to share with you, before
we leave the air. Here's one from Pamela. "Dear Brother
Jerry, in April my husband and I sowed a thousand dollar seed
into you and your wife, for favor in the sale of our home.
On the day we received your thank you letter, we got an
offer. We are currently under contract, and are scheduled to
close." This was back in June, or I'm sorry, July 29th, and
said, "We sold for more than we expected. We are also
purchasing our home in the neighborhood, where we wanted to
live, and we started out as a young couple. We just wanted to
say thank you and praise God for the harvest." Praise God.
Here's someone that's doing exactly what we were teaching on
the broadcast today. They learned how to call in their
harvest. You can do the same thing. Your harvest is crying
out for you, so you start crying out for your harvest. Here's one
from Dean and Helen. "We've been watching you on YouTube,
and your teaching is helping us receive our harvest." One from
Douglas, "A week ago, your message greatly inspired me.
I've been a born-again believer for about 30 years, but recently
I've been distracted, as a result of a new business I had
started. I've just finished reading one of your books for
the third time and, even though it was intended for ministers,
it has really blessed me, and I just wanted you to know that
I've made a new decision to walk with Christ." Douglas, we
appreciate you sharing that with us, and we rejoice in the great
thing that is happening in your life. I just want to say to you,
Douglas, the best days of your life are just ahead of you, not
behind you. Thank you, once again, for watching this
broadcast. Join us again next week. We're going to begin a
brand new series. Don't miss it. Until then, Jerry Savelle,
reminding you that your faith will overcome the world.
