Deacon demands New Year's church

Hello?

I'm trying to reach Brother Adrian.

This is he.

Brother Adrian, how you doing?

This is Deacon Patterson calling.

How you doing, Deacon Patterson?

How you doing?

I'm calling from the church.

I know it's New Year's Eve, and I wanted to give you a call and let you know that we're calling a lot of people from the church.

number and I ask you that if you don't mind to be in the presence of the church tonight

and come down here and be with us as we bring in the new year.

Oh, well, thanks for calling, but I'm not going to be able to make it there tonight.

I have other plans with my family.

I have a lot of people coming over to the house today.

No, no, no, no.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait just a minute.

Now, you're saying you're not going to be able to make it to the church?

Not this evening.

Let me ask you something, Brother Adrian.

Let me ask you this here.

Are you looking for a victory in 2010?

Oh, absolutely.

Now, are you looking to be blessed in 2010?

Yes, I am.

Now, do you want 2010 to be better than 2009?

I think we all do.

Exactly.

was, then it seemed like what you would do was be in the house tonight so you can accept

what God has got for you.

I mean, I would love to be there tonight, but I have family coming over.

Every year we do a gathering at different family members' houses, and since this is

my first year in my new house, my family decided we planned this last year, all the family's

going to be here.

So you've got a new house.

We just moved in here.

to the church and be thankful for what you got.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

I'm very thankful.

I'm in church with me and my wife every Sunday.

We were there this past Christmas,

giving out dinners and everything.

So I'm thankful.

I'm thankful, and I'm going to be there this Sunday.

But you don't want to be thankful tonight

as we come in and bring in 2010.

Do you realize that there's some people

that's not going to make it to 2010?

Do you realize that?

I do realize that.

I do realize that.

God bless them.

But I have plans tonight.

Okay, so let me ask you this.

So what you're saying is...

I won't be able to climb.

I won't be able to be there tonight.

So it's probably going to be a lot of people at your house?

Yes, my whole family's going to be here.

I got people coming in the airport in the next 30 minutes that I got to go pick up.

There's plenty of food going to be there, right?

That's right.

Plenty of music going to be there.

Right.

And plenty of drinking going to be there.

There will be a little libation in the house.

Yes, there will, but that has nothing to do with...

and Kevavie and Crown and Jen that make this thing.

Wait, wait, wait.

Hold on, hold on, hold on.

All those things are better than you coming to the house and bragging in 2010.

No, that's not what I'm saying.

What I'm saying is I have a family member coming to my house.

Well, why don't you bring the family to the church?

That's not going to work.

How can it not work?

Is it not enough cars?

Do you need us to pick up some people?

No, no, no.

I can't get y'all to the church this evening.

I don't need you to pick up anybody.

That's fine.

I just, my family's going to be at my house.

And I understand that.

Your family can be at your house after y'all leave this house.

Wait, wait, hold on, hold on.

Can you, I mean, don't yell at me, please.

I mean, let's bring the volume down a little bit, all right?

I'm trying to tell you that if you're in the church tonight,

it's going to be far greater than what you're doing at your home.

And you're blessed to have a new home.

Now, look, Deacon, what did you say your name was again?

Deacon Patterson.

Deacon Patterson.

Deacon Patterson.

Have we ever met?

Do I mean what?

I don't think we've met, but what I'm telling you is that we, if I meet you tonight, if you come tonight.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for cutting you off.

I'm sorry.

Look, I am going to be celebrating the new year with my family.

I'd appreciate it if you could appreciate that.

And I'll come in Sunday, but what I'd like you to do is introduce yourself to me, brother, all right?

I mean, we're going to talk about this, all right?

With your family

I'm not going to be there

I'm sorry

I will not be there

Why are you going against

Being there tonight

I don't know how many words

I just want you to explain to me

When a man rob God

Yet ye have robbed me

Where in time

Then in offering

Bring all ye

Wait a minute

Wait a minute

I know the Bible now

And you're not just going to be

Throwing Bible verses at me

Well why is it

That there seems to be a problem

With you coming tonight

There is no problem

Other than I have other plans

Okay

Then I understand that

But you know what

There comes a time

Well, plans got to change.

There'll come a time where you got to look to the hills from which come with your help

and your help coming from the Lord.

And you probably got a multitude of people coming to your house that need to be drugged down to the church

so they can understand the vision of what's happening and get the victory of 2010.

Well, we won't be there tonight.

What?

Excuse me, I'm trying to hold my composure.

I need you to do me a big favor.

Man, I'm going to tell you like a nice Christian would tell you, sir.

I will not be there tonight, Deacon.

I appreciate your phone call, and I will see you.

Please make it a point to introduce yourself to me.

You need to get your butt down there tonight.

Deacon, thank you for calling.

Wait just a minute.

Wait just a minute.

You need to get yourself.

Deacon.

Let me do this right now.

I want you to just bow your head for me and do this for me.

Let me hear you say, I want a victory in 2010.

Would you do it for me?

I want the victory in 2010.

I want the victory in 2010.

I want to be blessed even more than I was with my house in 2009 in 2010.

I want to be blessed with even more than just my house in 2009 in 2010.

I want you to say this.

Why?

Say why.

Why?

Because Nephew Tommy from the Steve Harvey Morning Show told me to.

I'm getting ready to get this.
