of people whose lives have already been

of great work here comes the word i’m so

glad you’re here enjoy

family i i just love love just stand

with me while we pray before we get into

the word because literally there was a

sound you know i’ve been in prayer

asking the lord what is it

that you want to speak on to your

children and i had some thoughts because

i was like okay god there was something

you had told me that we should you know

talk about

but something was different something

was it was almost like this alarm going

off in my spirit and i said god what is

it and there was this phrase that he

kept her lighting mission possible

you see as we were singing and we are

saying that god we will see revival fill

the nations but how do we see revival

fill the nations it’s through you

is how the holy spirit partners through

an individual who believes that god can

use them to bring change into this

nation that god can use them to change

their society their community that god

can use them to impact culture in such a

grand way

you see last week while our pastor was

with us he said something that it’s just

the truth anyone that is connected to

the sound of this ministry

there is a vision on your life

that is bigger than you have ever

thought about anything in your life

there is a vision there is a burden god

has put in your heart that literally

feels impossible

but you see the bible says that with man

it is

but with god all things are possible

[Applause]

and so when you’re drawn to this house

you know this is a house of i’d like to

call it both and people

we’re very layered

one moment you might see us with a mic

the next moment we might be in the

magazine right

we’re very layered people

you see you’re not just that’s why i

love when pastor roosevelt preached that

word about that that released so many

people to realize like wow i’m also an

author

i never saw my life that way

when you think about yourself you’re

like yes god has me you know in the

medical department but he’s also given

me this idea for a film we’re both and

people

we’re not boxed into one thing because

what it means is that we are willing

vessels

god however you want to use me i know

i’ve been in the arts but you can pull

me into tech whenever you feel like it

and so when you are a person that is

both and

you always have to be at the feet of

jesus because it would always seem out

of reach

but with god everything is possible and

so he gave me this message mission

possible

and i’m going to teach a bit on it but i

want us to pray because everything that

has been happening in this house is so

aligned with this charge

i don’t think this is just a sermon i

believe that this is a prophetic charge

for you to understand that that burden

that god has put in your heart that

burden he has put on your mind that it

is possible and it can and it will

happen but it just requires your

partnership and we’re going to talk

about what that really looks like but

just pray with me heavenly father we

thank you

lord jesus we love you

lord as we come before you

glorify yourself

holy spirit

we recognize your presence in this realm

glorify jesus through everything that

takes place

in jesus name amen amen amen amen

family you may be seated

[Music]

i want to go to this scripture is in

psalms 33 from verse 16

to 21.

and it says this

no king

is saved

by the multitude of an army

a mighty man is not delivered by great

strength

a horse is a vain hope for safety

neither shall it deliver any by its

great strength

behold the eye of the lord is on those

who fear him

on those whose hope is in his mercy

to deliver their soul from death and to

keep them alive in famine

our soul waits

for the lord

he is our help and our shield

for our heart shall rejoice in him

because we have trusted in his holy

name

i love this so much because

first of all the bible acknowledges like

hey

no king is saved by a great army

in other words jesus is saying

the victory is not the any anywhere you

see victory you see my hand

that you might look on the on the you

know from judging from the outside you

might be like oh man that that king had

such a great army look at that that is

why he had victory and in reality jesus

is saying that you know no king is saved

by a mighty army army

now in those days literally it means an

army

but in our lives we have armies

right because when you think about an

army it’s really just a multitude

whether multitude of things or people

that are brought together for a

particular purpose

so when god gives you a word you start

looking for your army you’re like okay

god i need the finances i need the

relationships i need this i need that i

need the i need everything to be right

we all have our armies that we build

for victory

but then the lord is saying to us

whatever you build around you is not the

guarantee

for your victory and the beauty in this

is that so whether you have it or you

don’t

the victory is based on what i have

purposed

so that’s why in the bible sometimes you

will see how you know sometimes a king

would have a great army and win the

battle

or two people will go after kings and

win the battle

because at the end of the day it is

about who is the lord with

so wherever you see victory you see the

authority of god

and what i love about this is that when

it talks about waiting on the lord just

as we were worshiping

waiting is not like this passive thing

that we do

waiting is not what we do when we tell

someone just trust god right we use it

as hashtags man i’m just believing just

trust god

what does that mean

because you see in the scripture there’s

something that they said that we’re

going to dive into it says for our heart

shall rejoice in him

because we have trusted in his holy name

but what does it really mean to trust

god

because you see jesus would say

something like this he talks about how

for these people they were talking about

a certain people he said you know with

their words they honor me

but their hearts are far from me

and in culture we have made trusting god

a saying

man trust god bro

man i just trust god bro and we then put

the bro and says right next to it man

says what you do i’m just trusting god

but your heart is far from god

i want you to take a moment and examine

how is your heart

how is your heart doing with the very

thing that god has promised you

how is your heart doing with the things

that are a burden to you

because the reality is that if what

you’re believing for does not flow from

the heart

then it is void

if you’re just using your words to give

jesus some lip service like jesus i just

trust you

but your actions don’t align your

thoughts don’t align

because jesus is not just watching what

you say he’s watching what you do and

he’s how watching how you think

and this is what i want to dive into

today because you see when when the lord

was put in this message in my heart i

realized that many times you’re like god

i trust you to make it happen

but how do we make that practical in our

lives

and i believe that through that some of

the key things i’m going to share today

when you begin to embrace it in your

life i believe that we’re going to see

incredible things happen through us

because of the holy spirit

you see the first thing he says is that

we trust in his holy name

now that word for name can translate to

several things reputation authority

character the report of jesus but there

are three key things i want us to

highlight today and i want us to start

with trusting in god’s holy name by

looking at trusting in his word

because when you trust in his name

you’re trusting in his authority

and his word is his authority now i’m

going to take this down a little bit of

a different street because when we think

about trusting in the word of god we

will often have this understanding of

you know what if god said it then that’s

what it is

we rest in this idea that because god

said it

then you know what even if i’m

disobedient

even if i’m not submissive

god will do what he said he will do in

my life that is how we look at it

and then we become very passive

we don’t have we don’t take charge

then the bible we forget that the bible

talks about faith without works is dead

so we say that we have the faith but we

have no works and then what ends up

happening is that we’re not actually

we’re just walking dead

and so we have this saying like we just

feel so great like oh i have a promise

from god i’m standing on the promise

but you’re not actually doing anything

with that promise

now this is the thing because you have

to recognize that when god speaks

there was a prophet by the name of

samuel the bible said concerning samuel

that the lord did not allow any of his

words to fall to the ground

meaning everything that prophet samuel

says god backed it up

every single word he uttered god backed

it up to prove to the people that this

is indeed my prophet

if god will back up the words of a man

then what about himself

when god releases a word and here is

where it gets tricky because this is

where we have so many questions but man

i you know i had this promise from the

lord but i haven’t seen it fulfilled in

my life yet

because we’re like god you’re not a man

to lie but what is happening

because the truth is every word from god

will be fulfilled

but you have to recognize that every

word from god is connected to his

mission

and a kingdom agenda

it is not connected to your happiness

it is not connected to you being

glorified it is connected to an agenda

of the kingdom

and so what makes you a partner is your

willingness

is your submission

because the moment you come out of

alignment

that is when the bible says the eyes of

the lord searches the whole earth

looking for who he could make himself

strong by

so when you back down

and you start living a life that could

be a little careless to the call you

start living a life that could be you

know a bit aimless to the task

whatever god has purpose to do in a

season will happen

the question is will it happen through

you

because when we take on this posture the

worst thing we can do as believers

is to think that we are the author of a

vision

that we are the author of a burden

you see the reality is family if you

want to see

no homelessness in the country in los

angeles to start with

it’s not because you’re a good person

it is because the spirit of the lord has

shared a burden with you

because you see last time i was with you

i thought i talked about deception jesus

even said this he said no one is good

except the father

but

and when he talks about this is because

you have to recognize that the nature of

man the nature of the flesh is very evil

the goodness you find in each and every

one of us is the evidence of the spirit

of god

why i’m sharing this is for you to

recognize that that vision you have

that good intention and that good idea

that you have if you think that you are

the author of it

you begin to lose your alignment

because if i authored this idea if it

started with me then i have all the time

in the world to execute on it

if this idea came because man i was just

so moved with compassion

i just love the whole world i just want

to see people better

if it started with me i’m saying this

about myself

i remember there was a time in my life

that i was feeling myself a little bit i

was like who god i just thank you that i

just have compassion for

everybody i just love people you know i

don’t even get offended wow this is

shocking guy i said you really took your

time with me

i’m not exaggerating right

and then the lord showed me myself

and i realized wow that was in there

okay

what makes us the goodness you find in

humanity

that light you find in humanity started

with jesus

he is the first one to be called the

light of the world

and when he calls you the light of the

world is because of what he has placed

in you

it’s because of what connects you to the

father and i’m saying this because you

have to recognize that whenever you have

a burden

that goes outside of you whenever you

have a burden for an idea a vision of

our business that it’s outside of just

pleasing you

you have to start taking inventory lord

what have you purposed to do on the

earth through this

this i am not the author of this

this did not start with me but you are

sharing a burden with me

that is why in the book of in with the

man named isaiah right

in the book of isaiah when the lord

encountered him there was an encounter

the lord had with him and the lord says

this he says who shall i send

and who shall go for us

then isaiah says here i am send me

now all of this is happening as a

spiritual encounter but you see what is

happening who shall i send

and who shall go for us

there is a mission connected to your

life

but that mission started with god

it didn’t start with you

and there was this charge in my spirit

that if we don’t begin to realize

the urgency for the things that god

wants to do in a season

and when it shifts and have you ever

because at some point god would this

experience must have happened to all of

us at some point in life

when there was an idea you had for

something and you sat on it too long

and not long after that you saw someone

execute the very same thing

and you will begin to wonder like

how

did somebody leak my thoughts

because it didn’t start with you

it was always in the mind of god to do

this

and when he saw your submission he says

okay i can partner with you

but if you just live a life and you feel

like you know what

i got time

i could do whatever i want god said it

it will happen it will

but you have to go back to that question

but will it happen through

you

that is why right after you see that

okay saul was appointed king in the

bible but when saul was no longer a

partner with the lord when he started to

listen to the voice of men and no longer

the voice of god what happens next the

lord tells samwell

go and anoint david to be king instead

whatever god has shared with you

you have to see that as an honor

the lord you will share this burden with

me

and the beauty is that we are not

looking for victory we are coming from

it

our job is to take a stance and press

towards what god has already decreed

you see i’ll share something with you

that happened i think one of the i would

rank this as probably the most

crazy spiritual experience i’ve ever had

but it taught me something so greatly

a particular day this is a couple years

ago

i was laying in bed

and literally a friend of mine she came

out we were all just hanging now you

know when your girlfriend’s around

everybody’s just chatting and all that

good stuff right

and we’re just having a conversation

immediately

i began to

not even sense i i recognized

that

although i’m in the bed having a

conversation it felt like my spirit was

leaving my body and going somewhere else

and i was aware of two realms at the

same time i was like what is happening

here

and then all of a sudden i find myself

in this room with the lord it’s almost

like it it took me into this place in

heaven

and in this room i would even call the

room because everywhere was open in this

place there was a table there was a

particular you know just round table

you

you know heaven they be they have

conferences and whatnot

and there was this round table

and the lord said this table is called

the seat of influence

so there were all these people sitting

on the table

and they were asked to now it was almost

like a change happening they were asked

to rise up and then have all these new

people come sit on the table

so then all these new people are sitting

and there was a particular person that i

saw and i recognized her

and i was like oh this is cool like

what’s happening here

and then an angel began to speak on

things events that will happen in the

world

now one thing in particular this lady is

someone who is very well known

established in a particular field

you know i just don’t want to mention

you know the person but very established

and the angel began to speak

that in a couple amount of years

that she is not even a couple of man of

years in a short time because it didn’t

take that long in a short time that

there’s a brand that she would establish

outside of the industry that she’s in

and they will cause the brand to take

off

it would it would bring it would

establish her in a new industry

but they began to talk about the the

plans of god behind it

and they said because it would reach a

point that her influence would grow so

much

and all of a sudden she would use that

influence to begin to evangelize

and she will start talking to people

about jesus

and what he’s done in her life it almost

felt like undercover

and so they say the name of the brand

they say exactly what it would do

and so i come out of it so after that

you know and a couple things happen and

i come back to myself and i was like

what just took place

right and i was like okay lord so i have

a conversation so i tell my brother and

i was like man you can’t even believe

what happened so i shared the whole

thing with him

not too long maybe about i don’t know if

it was even up to a year or so this

particular lady came out with this brand

exactly as it was said

everything happened and now i think

she’s more established in this brand in

doing that than the former thing that

she was in

and so when i saw it play out in front

of me honestly i felt like the fear of

the lord came upon me even stronger

because it made me ponder god wait

i recall this i even wrote down the

details because of how clear and vivid

everything was

and the lord began to teach me

that what took place in the spirit

is literally like a mirror

to when you’re just you know laying down

one day and all of a sudden you just

have a bright idea

you’re like wow

i should actually do this

and i should call it

this

and you you’re so full of vision and

it’s so clear to you not recognizing

that god is behind it

and it is connected to what he wants to

it has a kingdom agenda

now why this is so important is because

in the same way that’s why you have to

weigh out the things that you do

because in the same way that they can be

meetings in heaven concerning what god

wants to do on the earth through your

life it is the same way the enemy

orchestrates things so you have to watch

what you endorse in life

you are creative but you have to watch

what am i creating and who is the source

of this

when you eliminate yourself as the

author and you recognize that the

creative force behind everything has a

spiritual author

then you begin to weigh things out

and god if this came from you then i am

not going to be disobedient to the way

you want me to move

whatever it is that you want me to do i

have to recognize i am not looking for

an army

i don’t need an army for this to work i

just need to follow your voice

what would it look like if you began to

think and honor every idea

every vision every burden to serve

humanity

as an agenda of the kingdom

and what comes from god cannot fail

but where is our submission

where is our alignment

to say god you know what you have put

this in my heart i’m going to take a

stance of faith

because you see family when we say that

we have faith it means we have

information

the bible says this that faith comes by

hearing and hearing by the word of god

and so to have faith and that’s why it

also says that faith is the substance

of things hoped for

that when you hope for something and you

find understanding and revelation that

what i hope for is actually in god’s

plans for me

because when you have faith that means

you have tapped into an understanding of

what god wants to do whether it is a

plan or a promise or a principle

when you have faith then you have tapped

into an information but what do you do

with that information that is the key

and where deception creeps in is that

the enemy wants you to feel like it

started with you

because if it started with me

i can take my time

if it started with me i’m not pressed

if it started with me i don’t have to

check my doubt

if it started with me i could just chill

in this unbelief maybe that idea is just

too crazy i need to focus on something

else

let me come up with the next idea

if it started with me

but i want you to take some time today

begin to weigh the things that are

burdens in your heart

you don’t have to be in the industry for

god to use you for it like i said we are

both and people

we are one thing one day and another day

god pulls us into another field

we are both and whatever god has put as

a burden weighed in his presence

lord did this come from you

or is this a distraction

but lord if i know that this came from

you

then i am going to press

because what you have ordained to do

will happen

and i am making myself available that it

would happen with me

a couple weeks ago i shared that even

the way the lord called me into ministry

was very similar to that experience with

isaiah it was literally who shall i send

and who shall go for us and i was over

there me me me me send me send me

but it was a very similar experience and

i recognized that my mission i am not

the author i will keep saying this over

and over again because many times we

live like we are the author of our good

deeds

when i recognize that my mission for

god’s people my heart for god’s people

did not start with me

but it started with him

then i rest in him

then lord whatever you need me to do you

will show up

because again i am not looking for

victory i’m coming from it

you see whatever is causing you

whatever is causing you to feel

overwhelmed in this season

you see that whole that pressure and

that feeling of like man this is too

heavy for me to bear

what is too heavy is not the actual task

it is the idea of who it came from

because if it’s on me

then definitely it feels heavier than it

should be

you see even the ways when you feel

overwhelmed

when you search it out you’re not

overwhelmed because of what needs to be

done you’re overwhelmed because your

care you believe that this thing

it starts with me and it finishes with

me so if i don’t do it who will

and who’s gonna have my back

but when you begin to see life as god

this is this is on you

but i’m coming in partnership with you

to do this you move differently

and this is when you live a life that is

so consecrated to god

because you recognize what it means that

for god to look at you and say look i

want to partner with you to do some

great and mighty things

that’s why the point god even got angry

with moses

when he was telling moses moses i’ve

called you to deliver your people

moses is giving the excuse after excuse

the lord got a little frustrated

and he’s looking at him like

every issue you’re talking about you’re

talking to the solution

moses why are you still carrying this on

your shoulder like you did 40 years ago

because you see 40 years before god

encountered him

moses thought to himself

you know he was in the palace if you

haven’t read the story of moses in egypt

you gotta read it or even watch the the

movie prince of egypt

moses grew up in the palace

and his you know fellow israelites

they’re they’re in the field and they’re

suffering and all that stuff

moses wakes up one day and he just felt

like i’m a good person

i want to see my people set free

i’m going to do something about it

did not consult nobody

he just said you know what i’m a good

guy

so he’s walking around the field he sees

an egyptian beating up in israelite and

moses is like right here you can’t do

this because i’m a good person okay and

we don’t allow such things

so he beat he he actually kills the

egyptian

and he’s feeling himself you know

the next day he takes a walk in the

field again he’s like all right what

good people do over here we stop fights

okay

and then

two israelites are fighting

and he goes to separate the fight

and they look at him and say do you want

to kill us like you killed the egyptian

but they said it with in such a

dishonorable way and moses recognized

wait they don’t value me

actually they don’t even like what i did

but i was over here just trying to help

them and set them free moses runs

because now the pharaoh finds out moses

runs away so when god encounters him

again

moses is still looking at himself like

god i i was good i really tried to help

those people but they didn’t want my

help

not recognizing moses

even that desire it was not from you it

came from me

now the author of it is in front of you

saying i will be with you when you do

this

and so the frustration of god was not

about moses saying no but it was about

moses perspective of who is sending him

moses i’m not sending you to do

something you want to do

i’m sending you to do something i have

already declared done

and i’m calling you to partner with my

mission

that it would become our burden

but it started with god it was the lord

who said i have heard the cry of the

israelites and i will send moses to

deliver them

what idea

has god given you because he has already

heard the cry of the next generation

you see god is outside of time

so he’s not just listening to the

burdens of this generation he’s not just

listening to the issues in this era he’s

listening to the issues that would

happen in 20 years in 50 years in 100

years and so when he puts something in

your heart he says i’ve heard the cry

of 2035

and i have given you this idea to bring

solution to it

but how you move with it

is what now qualifies if it will happen

through you

now

when we talk about

in this holy name name also speaks to

character

now one thing that the lord was teaching

me on this

literally

this morning and there’s just this

download coming in and it blew my mind

because he said when it comes to

character again and which is true we

said you know what god is faithful

we say it all the time god is faithful

and he has never failed god will be

faithful in this and i trust the

character of god

but what cements that in your heart

what actually builds roots in your heart

for you to be established in trust in

the character of god is when you have

shared experiences with god

what i mean by this is many times

it’s hard for us to believe

that god can use us

with even with your burden with the

ideas with the revelation with the

inside everything

it is still a struggle to believe that

god can use you

and one of the key things that the lord

revealed to me is

when you only honor

people that give you a reason to

it is extremely hard to see how god can

use you in spite of your flaws

if you only respect and value

people that give you a reason to

then in the same way you start believing

this is how god sees you

why is it that many times if a person

has daddy issues in their lives right

maybe you didn’t grow up with your

father or abandonment or anything like

that that it’s also a struggle to

receive from god as a father

because your experience of a father

kind of

marked you in a very weird way that it

takes process

that even before god fully reveals

himself to you as a father he starts to

put people in your life

to show up

as what would be a good representation

of a fatherly figure

god begins to try to send people to you

that would allow you to embrace him in a

way that it’s outside of a negative

experience

what you don’t share in christ it is

hard for you to also recognize that is

how he operates

and this is not from your will i’m

talking about the holy spirit

because when you say yes to jesus what

happens is that the holy spirit begins

to change your nature to his nature

and this happens through obedience

it is the moment when you want to be

petty

and the holy spirit says be quiet

and then you go from trying to say

something to girl you know how’s the

weather

it is obedience in those moments because

what it does is that it starts to change

your heart it starts to change how you

see people

if you don’t on if you don’t honor the

people that are dishonorable to you

then it will be extremely hard for you

and your mess to see how god how could

you call me

how could you use me

because this is what honor does i mean

the honor in itself it’s a whole thing

god is very serious about honor

extremely serious to the point that the

only thing that could hinder jesus from

moving was a lack of honor

can you imagine that

that the lord wants to do a thing in a

place this is what this takes us to when

jesus went to his hometown

and when he went there the bible says

literally jesus before going to his

hometown healing people opening blind

eyes doing all kinds of amazing stuff

right

but jesus goes to his hometown and the

bible says he could not do that many

miracles but why is that

because the people dishonored him

the bible even says that they refused

to believe in him

and so when it says that he could not do

many miracles because of their lack of

because of their unbelief but that

unbelief was tied to their dishonor

jesus and what is that telling us i

refuse to receive new information about

you

they looked at jesus and they were like

oh no that isn’t that the son of mary

isn’t that his brother and sister

they said we refuse we already know you

jesus

how many times do we do that to people

in our lives

somebody hurt you

somebody disrespected you

somebody said something and and it could

be very extreme

and you’ve boxed them into that one

thing

and you refuse

to receive new revelation about them

you see honor is not you know in culture

we say that respect is earned

and so we use that same culture and

bring it into our faith

honor is not earned

it is your duty to honor every

individual

because

honor is not to honor is not to worship

someone

and to honor it is not to accept wrong

but honor is to esteem to respect that

word even has a sense of to give weight

to

and i was as i was seeking the lord what

does that mean for for me to give weight

to someone

you see because even

in the beginning of everything

the bible tells us in the book of psalms

that when god created us it was when it

was in the scripture when it says who is

man that you are mindful of him

who who is man that you are mindful of

him even says that you made him a little

lower than elohim and you have crowned

him

with glory and honor when god made you

he already crowned you with glory and

honor and here’s what happens when we

honor people

to honor someone

is to crown them with their image

you disrespected me

and me honoring you in this moment is to

remind you this is not you

why god requires us to honor

everyone even while they’re having road

rage

this is not you

i am gonna crown you back with your

image

i know you did this to me but i am not

gonna allow myself to be petty in heart

or indeed

because we can be petty in action okay

or in my thoughts

because whatever you are exhibiting is

not you

this is not the version of you that god

made

against an honor is not to you know look

away at wrong no

but it is to do it with respect and love

this is not you

you see i remember you know um a couple

weeks back right so i i went out for

dinner with my fiance

and

the

[Music]

praise the lord

but that is not the point the point is

the it was extremely bad service the

waiter at the service was terrible okay

and

in my mind i was like and he was like

you know what should we tip them

i said you don’t want to ask me

because

this is one of the worst services i’ve

ever had

in my mind i was like nah you know it

will still be a tip but not a tip tip

and

and at the end you know i saw him at

another zero

i said sir

[Music]

and he said no the holy spirit told me

to do this

let’s honor that man

and it ministered so much to me

because

we don’t know what he was dealing with

in his day

i don’t think anyone wakes up and just

you know while they’re taking a shower

you know and washing their hair they’re

like whoo i cannot wait to ignore people

[Laughter]

okay

i cannot wait you know

joe my god

i don’t think that was his intention but

whatever was going on in his life i know

he know he he gave a bad service there’s

no way you know

i believe that he took his time to pick

up that check because he probably

thought there would be nothing there

but i wonder what happened when he saw

the tip

i wonder what that moment did for him

it has given weight back to people

why am i sharing this

if you don’t know how what it means to

give weight to people

then it becomes difficult to accept when

god wants to give your life weight

[Applause]

[Music]

but when you begin to live a life

you see there was something there’s a

scripture i actually want to share with

you i mean this was something that

literally marveled jesus

in matthew chapter 8 from verse 5 to 10.

it says now jesus entered kirpania

and a centurion came to him pleading

with him saying

lord my servant is lying at home

paralyzed dreadfully tormented and jesus

said to him i will come and heal him the

centurion answered and said lord i am

not worthy

that you should come under my roof

but only speak a word and my servant

would be healed

for i am also

a man under authority

having soldiers under me and i say to

this one go and he goes and to another

come and he comes and to my servant do

this and he does it

when jesus heard it he marveled

and said to those who followed assuredly

i say to you

i have not found such great faith not

even in israel

now what again is faith faith is

knowledge

faith

comes by hearing and hearing by the word

of god there is an access of information

that activates faith in you

jesus says

i have never seen such great faith

in all of israel now a lot of amazing

things have happened up to this time

but when jesus heard this man speak he

said wow he can you imagine what will

make jesus marvel

that he looked and was like oh my say it

again

and slowly

but what did they have in common a

shared experience

when the man said look i also know what

it means to be under authority

if i tell my servant to do something

they do it so jesus i don’t need much

from you

i just need you to speak

because i understand what it’s like

when you speak a thing and someone does

it

if you want to be established in your

trust in god

if you want to be established in

trusting his character concerning you

if you want to be established trusting

that when god sees you

he sees a beautiful artwork if you want

to be established that when god sees you

he sees what he formed not however you

might be acting now

and he anointed what he formed

if you want to be established in knowing

that even in your mess god can walk with

you out of it

how do you treat people

and i’m not just talking about people

far from you

because a lot of times it always starts

in the home

what is your relationship

with like with your parents

with your siblings

with your cousins

and this is not to say that they were

great people no

not all of them might be great

maybe some of them even cost you a great

deal of pain

but if you don’t know how to honor on i

see it’s it’s a seed

it’s not selective

because what happens when you honor a

dishonorable parent for example

you’re putting weight on them

i don’t know where this behavior came

from

i don’t know if it happened there were

things that happened to you as a child

that’s why you treated me like this or

that’s why you abandoned me or that’s

why you were never there for me but i’m

going to put weight on you

i’m going to put the weight of your

image back on you

because the word of god tells us

that even when it comes to family you

will see honor in so many levels in the

bible because god god

there’s honor for authority in the land

honor in your family honor amongst your

friends and all that stuff you see god

talks about honor all over the bible but

everything really starts from the home

because those are the people that can

get on your nerves in ways that people

will never know

because have you ever noticed that it

could be something so random a stranger

could give you fiji water and you’re

like oh my gosh thank you so much

you’re so sweet

your brother gives you fiji water really

because i drink fiji right

i said how you gonna fight

they know how to push buttons that makes

no sense

it starts in the family

and so when we’re talking about god the

mission is possible it’s also there are

practical things that your life must

embody to fully receive it

and when the lord was putting this

weight on me that even connected to how

do we honor our family members

how do we honor our loved ones because

this is what honor does honor brings you

into access

what you honor you can also access from

and so sometimes you have not yet

accessed

the beauty of what god knows about a

person because you have not put weight

on them yet

and so what you may be waiting for and

crying out to god for literally could

start by you honoring the person

do you know that honor is so serious i’m

even diverting a little bit but honor is

so serious in god that even in a for a

married couple

he says to the man he says you know what

honor your wives right

because if there is dishonor your

prayers might be hindered

can you imagine that god would say he

would hinder he’s not even hearing your

prayer

he said oh who’s talking didn’t hear it

because of this honor in between a

family between a man and a woman

even when he talks about your parents he

said because in them you would access

life

he said so that your days may be long

and that it may be well with you

what is that because you have to

understand that even though maybe your

parents might be maybe they thought they

met as an accident

but god said but you were not an

accident

and you will honor the vessel that i

used to bring you to this earth

and whenever things look weird put back

put weight of their image on them

i’m sure even in this moment maybe there

are people coming to your mind

that one person that you refuse to call

you refuse to check in on

you refuse to just send like a a message

of encouragement

that one person that when you hear their

name you just like get aggravated

again i’m not saying

i’m not saying that to honor people

means that you

you clap for stupidity no

but how you treat them is with love and

respect not just in action

but in your heart

that even how i think of you would be

well

i’m not going to wish evil for you

i’m not going to think evil concerning

you

and i’m not saying that this is very

easy to do no

because sometimes it’s easier you see

when i was telling you that i was over

there saying god who you took your time

with me and somebody wronged me oh

all my heart intentions for them i don’t

even want to share it out loud it was

terrible

and i said god i will not lose sleep if

you did this

let’s be real right

but when you go before the before the

lord and say god

heal my heart

and even a practice you do you start

praying well for them

one of the key things is that when you

have

bitterness or hatred in your heart for

someone i charge you to pray for them

pray a blessing over them pray for them

like you will pray for yourself

because at the end of the day you don’t

realize that you’re cultivating

something much stronger in your life

you’re cultivating a heart of compassion

you’re cultivating a heart that sees

like god

and that changes everything

so when god begins to show you you

you accept it

when god begins to show you the things

that he has planned for you regardless

of your past regardless of your mistakes

you’re going to say when the lord is

saying to you who shall i send you say

lord send me with confidence

knowing that god i have learned

something about you

that you do you really do not hold me

you don’t hold me against the sins of my

past you’re looking at me the same way

you’ve always seen me even before you

placed me in this earth

and so that’s with honor right

and the third thing is to trust in god’s

report

and what do i mean by this we talk about

this all the time right it’s interesting

because for many times it’s easier for

us to dwell on disappointment

than to dwell on the good things

it’s so easy that when god did not do

that one thing

you were just like you see you know we

were singing here he goes again showing

up as friend you just remixed the whole

song you see here we go again god just

another disappointment now

now

the beauty of life is what you practice

becomes your norm

if you practice dwelling on

disappointments then this is how you

start your day you start your day from

just a very negative mindset about

everything that could happen

the bible tells us this that we come

into the presence of the lord with

thanksgiving

one of the reasons we also praise god

even be in the beginning of a service

because we are coming into his presence

with thanksgiving and praise

when you start your day

something i want to charge you to do

practically when you start your day

in prayer and worship

reflect on the goodness of god in your

life

have a gratitude journal

think about the things you’re just like

god even if you say every day there are

three things that would outline think

about the things you’re like god man i

just thank you for this god i thank you

for this because what are you doing you

are coming into his presence

that you would live there the whole day

and and furthermore

but when you start your day because you

can even start your day with prayer but

it’s still from a negative place

because you’re starting your day with

prayer and questions

god why didn’t you do this

god i i waited for you and you haven’t

still shown up

so although you’re starting with prayer

but the posture of your life is

disappointment

but when you start your day with

gratitude

god i thank you for this

god i thank you i’m telling you what it

do it changes your atmosphere

it changes how you perceive things and

it changes how the holy spirit is

amplified to walk with you throughout

your day

there are little things that when we

begin to tweak that

all of a sudden all you see around you

is possibilities

when i start my day recognizing god

there are things i don’t understand

but i i want to acknowledge you for what

you’ve already done there are things

that yes maybe they hurt me because it

didn’t happen according to my timeline

but the moment you begin to praise the

lord you begin to recognize but your

ways are greater

and indeed i will wait on you

you see family

whatever is assigned to your life

whatever god has spoken over your life

you have to rest in knowing

that god will do it

but in order for him to do it through me

i have to be aligned

god is faithful to his word

and i want to be faithful to the call

let’s not live the the times we are in

is

extremely crazy

and it might only get wilder

and this is when the light shines so

brightly

in the midst of darkness

whatever god has called you to do as an

answer some things don’t always seem fun

because a burden is not it’s not fun to

carry who who walks around just lifting

75 pounds of weight just you know doing

reps all day of their lives no at some

point it gets heavy

a burden is not fun

but when you recognize that you’re not

doing it on your own

and when you recognize that there is an

agenda connected to the kingdom for this

thing to be established then you do it

in joy you do it in gratitude you do it

and you press on that no matter the

hiccups that might come on the way no

matter the circumstances no matter the

trials the bible says that though the

weapons will be formed they will not

prosper

so weapons will be formed because it’s

not coming against you it’s coming

against the agenda of the kingdom that

wants to be manifested through you

so when you recognize

god if this weapon

prospers

then that means

you failed

it can’t prosper

it changes your disposition in life

it makes you walk with your health your

head held high knowing that god you are

with me

you see when the lord began to deal with

me on this word it also challenged

things in my life

i began to reflect even on some of the

things

that i was prideful enough to think i

authored

it was just in my heart to do no

these are the burdens of heaven

that are shared with us

and so family stand with me we’re going

to pray

thank you jesus

thank you jesus

thank you lord thank you lord thank you

lord

thank you lord

now family

if you know that there is a call

that you need to answer

there’s something that god has placed in

your heart

that you have been prideful about

because you just felt like god

it’s me you know i i woke up one morning

you know had a

sigh bowl

and i just thought about this bright

idea

but if you’re recognizing that this

started with god

then i want you to meet me at this altar

as a way of you saying god i surrender

and i will be in alignment with the very

thing that you have called me to do i am

no longer running

i am no longer you know i’m not gonna

embrace this prideful nature any longer

but i am going to say yes to the call

thank you jesus

thank you jesus

now if you’re in the house and

you have given yourself to creativity

in a way that is

against

the plans of god

because you thought you were just being

creative

not recognizing that everything in this

life serves

something

it either serves the kingdom of heaven

or it serves the kingdom of darkness

and in particular when i shared that it

hit you

because you recognize that i have been

using my gifts and my creativity

for things that are aimless

not recognizing that i was actually

serving a different master

if you know i’m talking to you and

you’re just like god i want to use my

gifts to honor your kingdom i want you

to meet me at this altar right now

thank you jesus

thank you lord thank you lord thank you

lord thank you lord i want you to get as

close to the altar as you can

thank you lord

thank you lord thank you jesus

thank you jesus

god is doing something powerful

god is doing something mighty

and you haven’t you you know you haven’t

believed in yourself in such a long time

because you were looking at your army

not recognizing that the armies of

heaven is all around you

you’re looking at an army in this realm

but the armies of heaven surround you

you see reminds me of elisha

when there were armies that came up

against him

and he had a servant who panicked

and he got anxious and scared

and he says the armies are coming

against us and elisha was just chilling

and then he had he prayed a prayer he

said god open the eyes

of my servant

so he can see

that those that are with us are greater

than those that are coming up against us

and god opened his servant’s eyes and he

saw angels all around

just holding their ground waiting

for whatever the lord wanted to do to

protect

his prophet

god has an army around you

god has an army around that idea

god has an army around your life

thank you jesus

thank you jesus there’s so much more to

you so much more to you

you see some of you

literally

you should not even be alive today

but there is an army of god around your

life

[Applause]

you’re still questioning

someone in particular there’s a scar

that the lord is highlighting to me this

scar

on your on your right arm

and it came from an accident

and while you’re still questioning god

like you know why did this happen and

all this what you’re failing to realize

that scar is just a reminder

there’s an army

literally surrounding you

who am i talking to you have a scar

on your right hand yes

actually come meet us at the altar

meet me at this all to meet me at the

psalter

thank you jesus

thank you lord

even to our global family

god sees you right where you are what i

love about god for those watching us

even right now all around the world

that he does not he he he’s not you know

separated by his time and space

he knows where you are he knows when

you’re listening to this

and there’s an army of god all around

you

you see that lady

with this scar

stop doubting yourself

you need to run towards the thing that

god has called you to do stop looking at

the scar as a mark of whether god was

faithful or not

stop looking at the scar wondering god

where have you been

because the scar is a reminder i have an

army

an army an army and army around you

[Music]

family

when you apply pressure

to the things that god has put in your

heart

you will begin to see

the pressure of heaven

moving in the world

things will not even make sense that

will just start aligning itself

you have to move in excellence

trust in the timing of god

trust in that god everything the times

and seasons for this is in your hands

but i am going to be obedient to the

best i can with what you have charged me

to do

there is an army around you

even all around this room there are

angels of the lord

surrounding this place

there are angels of the lord surrounding

your lives

[Music]

thank you jesus

thank you jesus

[Music]

i’m so excited in my spirit

because i feel like we’re not even i

feel

i know that we are a house

that gets it

a house that will answer the call

a house that will change this culture a

house that will change this world

because we recognize who is with us

not who is against us

but who is with us

[Music]

i know in this culture

we like to focus so much on your haters

you know

tell my haters

girl all these people be hating you know

what haters gonna hate

but i want you to focus on what god is

doing because you see that that that

mindset is so backwards

because first of all it you it makes you

mentally want to keep them as haters

not seeing anything else that could come

out of them

but let go of this whole thing of like

who’s hating on me you know no who is

for me

and how can i put weight even on that

hater

now

family if you’re in this room and you

want to give your life to jesus

the truth is that there is no life

outside of him

the bible says that in him we live and

we move and we have our being

the real you is found in christ

outside of him there is nothing

i know many times we might be after a

spiritual high and and we we find

ourselves in all types of places

but the best supernatural experiences

you can even have is in christ

but because it is led by the holy spirit

you see sometimes a supernatural

experience outside of christ is

dangerous

because who gave you access

and what are they accessing as a result

[Applause]

but being in christ is the safest place

to be

it is the truest place to

be it is what we were created for

because earlier

past ebenezer and ty were talking about

the event our pastor is doing on

about breathing right

but even the breath that is in our body

who did it come from the lord

we are a living soul because of what

came out of him

and what does that tell you everything

about my life is connected to him

outside of him i cannot thrive

outside of him i don’t even know who i

am

so if you have not given your life to

jesus

you know right now you’re fluid you’re

just like you know i’m just testing the

waters of everything but there is a

conviction right now happening in your

heart

and you know that it’s time i stopped

playing games

and stop giving access to things that

are beneath me

the enemy is beneath you

why are you giving him authority in your

life

[Music]

if that is you i want you to just raise

your hand and release a scream that you

want to give your life to the lord

thank you jesus

thank you jesus

thank you jesus

thank you g family can we praise god in

this house

hallelujah

hallelujah

hallelujah let us pray heavenly father

we thank you

lord jesus we worship you

we thank you for what has taken place

today in this house oh god we thank you

for your sons and daughters who are

saying yes to the call

recognizing that god you are the author

of this vision you are the author of

this burden and without you i cannot do

it but with you lord god this mission is

possible i thank you god that they are

recognizing that there is an army of

heaven all around them an army that will

facilitate and orchestrate everything

connected to your agenda

for this world

the kingdom’s agenda for the times and

the times to come

we thank you lord that we submit

and we release every form of pride

that will cause us

to walk a life

of disobedience and disregard to your

holy name

heavenly father i thank you for those

who are saying god i’ve used my gifts

i’ve used my talents to do things

outside of your nature

and lord in this moment i am repenting

lord connect me to the kingdom’s agenda

use my voice use my my everything that

you have given me

use my ideas use this vessel

for your glory

i will not limit myself to an industry

because my god is unlimited

my god is all power is all knowing he is

sovereign in everything

whatever you lead me to do

i will do that with obedience i thank

you god this is our prayer and our

declaration

i thank you lord for those who have said

yes to you

and saying lord jesus i am committing my

life to you

i am committing my ways to you

i’m not trying to live in this fluid

lifestyle

i want to live and be everything that

you say i am and it starts with saying

yes to

jesus lord i thank you

that on the cross

the cross didn’t take your life

but on the cross you put to death sin

you put to death anything that could

come up against us

anything that could keep us bound

and when you were raised up

you raised us up as well

and so lord i thank you for your sons

and daughters who are tapping into their

raised up identity

the identity you’ve always known

in jesus mighty name

thank you lord thank you lord there is

something so beautiful happening in this

house
