thanks for joining us on Kingdom connection I'm Jensen Franklin and I'm excited about this program I believe today that you are going to hear some amazing testimonies an old-fashioned baptism service we we're going to take you into for a few minutes but first i'm going to preach a message that I think is a word that is in season for your life I really believe many of you feel like you've been put on hold and it seems like nothing's happening and everything that that you thought would happen it just feels like Lord have you forgotten about
me that's why I want you to hear this message this message is going to speak to you and it's going to let you know that you may feel stuck in the same place in life but God has a breakthrough coming your way and God has a plan that where you are right now he's using it really to fulfill his promise and his Blessing in your life life God always has a plan his timing is always perfect and if you will hold on a midnight Miracle is coming to your life listen to this message and let
it speak to you today together we're inspiring people to live for Jesus if you're looking for more in life to live with purpose and peace to make a difference for your family and those in need around the world Jesus is the answer and our mission is to Simply point you to to him you're watching Kingdom connection with Jensen Franklin acts chap 16 and I want to read verse 25 but at midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God and the prisoners were listening to them suddenly there came a great earthquake so that
the foundations of the prison were shaken and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone chains were loosed suddenly there came a great earthquake and it was happening according to verse 25 at midnight I want to preach to you I really felt the Lord uh lead me in this and I felt like it was confirmed in the first service I want to talk to you about what to do when God puts you on hold in the midst of Prayer in the midst of Praise in the midst of singing God suddenly invaded that prison house and
every door that was closed opened and every chain that bound was loosed suddenly tension is good when it's used on the violin it's the bow and the tension of the string that that causes the Beautiful music but the tension that I'm preaching on is the kind that if they press too hard on the bow it will break the string and the tension of where you are and where you want to be sometimes is that in between place where God puts you on hold and you know that midnight is God's invasion of your problem but there's
11:59 at 11:59 Paul and Silas had no idea when they were praising in pain when their backs were bleeding when it was so dark it was midnight they had no idea at 11:59 that everything suddenly was about to change and that's what I'm preaching on when God has you on hold between the one minute away from a breakthrough one minute there's always a timing to God's Miracles at midnight the earthquake came and the doors open and the chains fell and many of you right now are at that unrecorded 1159 and you have to make it
to midnight before the earthquake comes and I want you to understand this morning that Paul was at a place in his life where he was feeling forbidden and he was feeling like he did not understand everything that was going on but he praised anyhow I want you to look with me for just a moment at this familiar story and if you're living in an 1159 and nothing's happening I want to encourage you when nothing's happening keep moving in the right Direction when nothing's happening keep praying keep praising great Apostles live through the 11:59 to the
12 Paul tried to go to Asia in Acts 16-6 and the Bible said the Holy Ghost forbid him have you ever tried your best to make something happen and all God gives you is a stop sign but what God did with Paul was every stop sign and it's important to understand that when the door is closed by God it's working for your good if it hasn't happened yet it's working for your good Paul backed into the will of God instead of walking forward into the will of God he was forbidden from going where he thought
he was supposed to go by now and God said no it's not time you see a closed door is as much God's will will when he gives you one as an Open Door is if the door's been closed and it has not happened and you keep saying I can't wait till I get in the will of God a closed door is as much the will of God as an open door and don't ever forget that it's important if God has closed the door it's just a matter of timing and you're in 11:59 but midnight is
coming midnight I'm preaching this morning on midnight Miracles are on the way come on and if you're in the holding place you got to keep praying and praising and moving in the right direction don't get discouraged little did he know that four verses later God would give him a vision and he would see a man in Macedonia saying come here we need help and when he got there this is where this story is centered that I just read out of the Bible when when he got there there were women praying by the river and the
power of God began to move he even went to the elders and said is this the will of God cuz the last time I tried it didn't happen the Elder said the Lord's in this go and he went and when he got there he was encountered with a demon-possessed woman and he cast The Devil out of her now I want you to think about what I'm saying Paul had a vision he had a word from God God told him what to do the elders confirmed it and all of a sudden he's fighting Devils I want
to preach to you that sometimes we have the wrong assumption that everything in God's will is going to fall in our lap and sometimes you're right in the middle of God's will and you don't even feel like it and nothing seems to be working real easy and real fun nothing happened like he saw it in the vision he saw a man but when he got there there were women praying by the river no man and then he prays he gets to preaching and a woman starts following him full of devils and she was a fortune
teller and you better leave that stuff alone you better leave that stuff you better leave those little fortune tellers alone you better leave that Ouija board alone you better leave that psychic alone especially a California Psychic my Lord I'd rather know the holy spirit is leading me not some evil Spirit not some witch I don't need that I've got the Holy Ghost Hallelujah and he knows how to lead me and guide me into his will and if he says I close the door I say I'll Stand Here In Praise in my 1159 cuz the door
is going to open at 12:00 right on time somebody praise him it's God's [Applause] timing you say well Pastor it just feels like God God's put me on hold I felt somebody this week I don't know who but you got in my heart and you feel so Lely and you feel so Forsaken and you feel like it's just not happening and the enemy's made you feel like that God has forgotten about you and I just feel like that I'm on hold but when God puts you on hold make sure you don't hang up if you
won't hang up in 11:59 his voice oh I know it's been a long time but his voice will come booming in the Midnight Hour with a midnight miracle that will open the door and loose you from the chains and you'll walk in a new thing that God is doing in your life give him a great praise if you believe it let me show you something real quick I want you to understand that midnight is God's favorite time which means 11 59 is Satan's favorite time to double down on his discouragement in your life right before
your Miracle comes through the Bible said in Exodus 11 in verse 4 that at 11:59 they were slaves at 11:59 they were in generational bondage at 11:59 they were broke and they were poor and they were devastated but at Exodus 11 and4 said at midnight at Mid midnight they were set free by the blood of the lamb and I'm simply telling you that God was inactive for days and months and years and they were put on hold but you never know when you're standing in your 1159 moment and you're one moment away from a miracle
in the middle of your midnight and I believe I'm sent to preach to somebody today to say just when the enemy me thought and by the way the story that I read in Acts chapter 16 after God opened the prison doors and set the captives free from the prison with an earthquake at midnight the next verse says that the Apostle Paul stopped a man from committing suicide and taking his life and I believe that somebody is in such a dark season that the enemies whisper to you there's no hope and no future and you know
that's a devil when you hear that voice Exodus said the miracle happened at midnight do you know that judges or the Book of Judges chapter 16 and verse three it was at midnight the power of God Came Upon Samson and he tore up the gates of Gaza off of the off of the hinges the power of God I believe that the power of God is coming on the church in this hour and if we'll hold on on through the 1159 we're going to and I'm praying for the nation of Israel to tear up the gates
of Gaza amen and God would move mightily I believe it's time for the spirit of Samson to come on this church and every church and the body of Christ not be a bunch of victims but we tear the the Gates of Hell shall not Prevail somebody say praise the lord it's midnight he's a Vietnam evangelist by the name and I'm sure I'm slaughtering his name new Jen and he was in Vietnam as an evangelist a Christian evangelist preaching during the Vietnam war and when the Communists took over the Viet Kong took over they invaded the
village where he was found out he was a pastor and imprison him and put him in what they called a rehabilitation Camp he was not allowed to read anything he was isolated for two and a half years and every day he did the same thing two times a day he cleaned the latrine he cleaned the toilets the filthy toilets he had to get down and dig with bucket and shovel and clean out the toilets of the Viet Kong soldiers and he hit a point after not having any Christian support any hearing a sermon hearing a
song hearing an encouraging word he got so low that he said God if you're there if you're there you're going to have to speak to me and while he was there with his boots and His Bucket and his shovel hell laughing at him it's 11:59 he starts cleaning and he notices something he has never seen in that latrine he sees pages of paper not just any paper but he recognizes that paper one of those generals had decided when he found a Bible to turn it into toilet paper and he was using the Bible as toil
paper and somewhere when he said Lord if you're there I need to hear from you he reached down and you say I wouldn't touch it if you hadn't seen the word in two and a half years you don't know what you'd go through to get to that word and he got him a rag and he cleaned it off the best he could and he had found one page called Romans chapter 8 and this is what he said he read in verse 35 who shall separate us from the love of Christ shall tribulation or distress or
persecution or famine or nakedness or Pearl or sword as it is written for your sake wipe some off I can't see it it's blurred as it is written for your sakes it's 11:59 we're counted as sheep for the slaughter oh but yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us for I am persuaded that neither death nor life nor angels nor principalities nor powers nor things present nor things to come nor height nor death nor any other created thing shall be able to separate us from the love of God
which is in Jesus Christ I Lord I don't know who I'm preaching to but I feel like telling you that you need to hold on because you're at 11:59 and you're one moment away from your breakthrough and when it comes it's going to be suddenly and you'll see God open the door and loose the chain and perform his prophecy in your life give him a great praise give him a great praise in this room oh yes I know he's real I know he's real God bless you sir what is your name Bobby AES Bobby how
