Can only describe this guy in one word "anointed".
Hallelujah Lord be Glorified. Psalm 83 Lord God arise and let it be known to all Whom your people serve, the one and only living almighty God.
18 years of my married life was locusts years. Only God didn't allow me to break or commit suicide, thanks be to God
God’s mercy and grace kept you from destruction.
Be thankful for what you have escaped.
I love this pastor. He is nice, kind, knowledgable, honest, trustworthy. I respect and trust him.
THANK YOU Heavenly FATHER For leading Colin Smith. to exspound on your word so clearly that everyone can understand,Amen.
God. This is me. I need true restoration and Deliverance from reproach. God hear and help me.
Please Lord, I'm in agreement with Ms Lord. Please restore her
Thank you for the message. Locust years can happen to anyone. The best example of Joseph. His locust years were being sent to the pit for something he did not do. God restored him!
I would say that locust years not only can, but do, happen to us ALL. We all have had a time apart from God, even if it was before we knew Him.
@@howard4405 They happen to GOOD people too like Job and Joseph
I was young now I am old... so many years wasted on Godless people! Have mercy Lord !

Painful 16 years of living with a very abusive mother in a single parent home, without any family to spend on Christmas, never have known what ot is like to be in a family photo and even then in college I have to rely on specific friends to spend the holidays with and even then I wodner which one will be available in case one celebrates with her husband put of town.
When my father and my mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me up.
Psalm 27:10
He sees your pain. He hears your cry. On that one Friend you can rely.
My heart goes out to you with compassion. Just remember that almost everyone had a miserable childhood. Despite I had two parents but my parents showed favoritism towards my brothers and I was very neglected. I
suffered bulimia, Attention Deficit Disorder in my teenage years.
When I was about one year old , my mom left me in the locked room and let me stayed alone all day . I heard that I was almost dead from hunger when my mother opened the door .
Of course I know why I was suffering so much from postpartum depression and panic attack even now .
But I loved my mother more than my life .
My mother passed away in 2018 and I wish I could love her more and made her feel more comfortable around me .
Please don’t let your childhood abuse make you disrespect your mother. Your mother didn’t know better . We all wish we could have done differently.
Much love and compassion from your sister in Christ.
@@sundelong2727 I am not disrespecting her in any way.....But I will not allow myself to be physicall abused ....just because someone could handle or views something differently doesn't mean we're all made out of the same material.....I forgive her in Christ...but that doesn't mean I have to be around someone who is toxic and is under demonic influence..I refused to remain with someone who threw scissors in my face, wanted me to sleep with her until I was married...and made me wear dirty clothes that was in a laundry bag for a year without washing....not everyone's situation is the exactly the same .....For the matter some cases are extreme where you have to alienate ...and there is this thing called Satanic Ritual abuse where mother's rape their own children just to inform you.... I pray she finds God. I grew up in church with her and she had a handful of pastoral counseling and they tried to do deliverance on her but she continued in rebellion and said nobody was gonna tell her what to do. Not everyone has had a miserable childhood just because we did....And no one is completely out of there senses to not know what they are doing....they may not know better but that doesn't mean they don't have a conscience or the voice of God screaming in their head from time to time .......
I believe this is an extremely relevant word for 2020
Thank you
Praise God. There's a season for everything. God works in His own time but rest assured when you've stayed faithful through the trials and tribulations, what you do in secret the Lord will reward you openly for, according to His goodness and riches. You will minister to others and save others as they see you soldiering on through the dark times but in the dawn he will exalt you beyond your enemies and siblings alike. Thank God in advance and claim your victory in Faith, in Jesus' Name. I stand in agreement with this message. After a tough 2020 praise God that he has brought us to crossover safely into 2021. God willing this will be your Year of Breakthroughs and Restoration in Jesus Name. May everyone reading this message be Blessed Abundantly their families and entire network of friends in Jesus Mighty Name. Cover us with your Precious Blood Lord Jesus Christ. Enemies and demons wil flee in 7 directions but your inheritance, rightful portions and prosperity will chase you. Please also keep me in your prayers for the restoration of my family trust fund, land and company assets embezzled by our unscrupulous trustees who are now feeling the scrutiny by the authorities for their dark deeds. But God is the defender of widows and orphans, he exalts the humble but casts down the haughty and arrogant. Prayers and respect from Fiji 🙏😇🕊️♥️🇫🇯
Great message for 2022. Many needed the encouragement.

God of Restoration!
Yes, I loosen all of these words of God to make up for lost years in Joel 2:18-27, 2 corinthians 6:14-15, matthew 6:24, 1 john 3:10 and this whole message to become truth and alive in my life, the lives of my friends, family, colleagues, neighbours, acquintances, opponents and the body of Christ from now on, loosening one from the locust to waste one's time, loosening myself of every unequal yoke and common share with those wasting time, in the name and blood of Jesus Christ: amen!
an AMAZING PROMISE >> YES I WANT TO EXPERIENCE AND LIVE IT ..
Thank you Pastor Colin smith , God bless your ministry aboundantly.
Lord I thank you for restoring the years that the Locust and cankerworms have stolen from me and my family.

Thank you pastor Colin for your awesome message to Vietnamese churches.
Revival Glory is coming !
Amen. I needed this.
Powerful message, Pastor Smith. Thank you. Glory to Our Heavenly Father.
When I first responded to this message 5 years ago I was going through the first year after the loss of my wife. Since then, I received my new Bible, and it was bookmarked on the very page on of Joel Chapter 2. (I received this Bible here in Brazil remarried to a beautiful Christian woman.) The Lord simply confirmed His work with this bookmark indicating I am being restored. 5 years ago I hoped this message would apply to my life in some way… to gain back the lost years the locusts devoured. I now am relocated in another county with a loving wife and new Christian Brothers and Sisters at a local church and the Lord is reshaping me in ways I would not have expected. This scripture will be forever thought to be unexpectedly some of the most pivotal words that would impact my life. Thank you again Pastor Smith. Most of all, thank you Lord Jesus. I Love You… In Christ John
Thanks for the message of restoration Colin Smith
Thank you so much for sharing
the timing of the Lord is one of endless gifts from our Father, that amazes me, nearer to Yeshua HaMassiach
Praise God I found this. So timely brother, I listen to your sermons on premier Christian most evenings as I travel home from work and the Lord has used you many times, to correct, rebuke and bless me. Good to put a face to the voice 😊 May the Lord bless you and your fellowship of saints and present you blameless, spotless and without wrinkle at the coming of our King, in Jesus Name. Blessings from your brother in Christ. Darragh from belfast Northern Ireland
SPARE YOUR PEOPLE / MERCY O LORD
Thank you for such a hopeful message.
Thank you for the message. I asked God the explanation of Joel 2vs23-25 and this video popped up. I got more than I asked, thank You Lord very much. Blessing Pastor
a COMMUNION NEVER KNOWN IN OUR LIVES this sermon is my prayer
I believe all those years the locusts have eaten in all those variables that contributed towards being stagnant and unproductive; will be restored and more in Jesus name. Amen. Thank you Jesus.
Joel 2:18-29. Today is May 29, 2023. And on this day, let us pray for affordable, stable housing for all.

Though you could apply this to your life, God is the same yesterday today and forever…but this is a minor prophet speaking of Israel, his chosen people. This is what will happen in the last days, God will restore Israel.
God’s Army is on the move. Joel 2 describes a great people coming, a great and mighty army, spiritual army. A great & powerful army will spread over the mountains. There has never been anything like it before and there will never be anything like it again. In front of them a fire destroys. In back of them a flame burns. (This is a spiritual view) The land in front of them is like the garden of Eden; the land behind them is like an empty desert. Nothing will escape from them. They look like horses. (This is Joel describing powerful people the best way he knows how, using horses as an illustration)and they run like war horses. It is like the noise of chariots, rumbling over the tops of the mountains, like the noise of a roaring fire burning dry stalks. They are like a powerful army lined up for battle. When they see them, nations shake with fear, and everyone’s face becomes pale. They charge like soldiers; they climb over the wall like warriors. they all march straight ahead and do not move off their path. They do not run into each other because each walks in line. They break through all efforts to stop them and keep coming. They run into the city. They run at the wall and climb into the houses, entering through windows like thieves. Before them, earth & sky shake. The sun & the moon become dark, and the stars stop shining. The Lord shouts out orders to his army. The army is very large! Those who obey him are very strong! The Lord’s day of judging is an overwhelming and terrible day. No one can stand up against it!
Notice: This describing the Lords Army, Gods last day people filled with the Glory of God. The former and latter rain of Gods Glory poured out at the end of the church age. Why? To gather in the final harvest of souls. Coming together here in 2021...
Wow!! Hallelujah and amen. Good is speaking. Felt it strong in the spirit. Glory to our Father God
I'm loving this series so far, lovely stuff. May I ask what denomination your church is?
He is a senior pastor in “ The Orchard Evangelical Free Church “ in Chicago. Pastor Smith is from Edinburg, Scotland.
I found him from the Family Radio and I listen to him every day. He is definitely anointed pastor.

Is this a typical taken out of context or is he preaching to ancient Israel?
I didn’t understand why he mentioned Jesus Christ in Isaiah either .
33:15 - 33:40
My daughter was lovely girl and studied hard to became a health worker. But she became a crack cocaine addict and lost her job . I saw a beautiful girl turned into a monster . Having a baby out of wedlock and in and out from jail. All those years of locusts eaten , she lost her integrity, health , beautiful heart , faith ( obviously she never had ) and I almost given up on her . In 2012 , a famous American singer Whitney Houston died from drug overdosed at age of 48, I gave my daughter “ National Inquirer “ tabloid full of her story. After her tragic story , she quit drugs and she is drug free for 10 years .
I truly believe that God restore but she is still paying for the consequences of her wicked lifestyle despite it’s been more than 10 years.
She doesn’t have anything now but she should be thankful what she has escaped .
