WEBVTT 1 00:00:01.720 --> 00:00:12.800 Hallelujah. How are we doing. Let's stand prayer for the Word. Good 2 00:00:12.800 --> 00:00:18.559 to see all of you. Wow, you're looking good. Praise the Lord. 3 00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:25.600 I can assess the whole crowd here. See who came to church, 4 00:00:25.640 --> 00:00:36.399 who didn't raise the Lord? Well look at that? Oh Hellujah. Good 5 00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:44.399 to see you all. Amen, you love the Word. Father. We 6 00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:52.479 thank you for your presence and your ministry to us this morning. We welcome, 7 00:00:52.799 --> 00:00:57.280 we welcome you, just a holy spirit making the Word alive and making 8 00:00:57.320 --> 00:01:06.599 the Word rich quick, bringing revelation illumination to our hearts. Thank you for 9 00:01:06.719 --> 00:01:11.599 this morning, this time, this family, this moment Jesus name, everybody 10 00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:19.000 said, Amen, you may be seated. This is our week three on 11 00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:29.159 considering creative power and just meditating a little bit on the power that we have 12 00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:34.319 as believers. And maybe you know it relates a little bit to the life 13 00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:38.280 of Daniel, right, the life of Joseph. Some of the things we 14 00:01:38.319 --> 00:01:47.519 see in the First Covenant under Moses, we see these sons and daughters of 15 00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:55.359 Abraham doing exploits, and I think that it's setting the stage for us to 16 00:01:55.400 --> 00:02:00.959 do exploits. Amen, we're exploit doers. Any ex in the building. 17 00:02:01.760 --> 00:02:09.840 We're explent doers. Amen, I think that, you know, I introduced 18 00:02:09.879 --> 00:02:15.840 some of this just thinking of talking about hope and vision and that hope is 19 00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:28.199 so necessary for faith to germinate spring forth. Uh And and I think that 20 00:02:29.319 --> 00:02:34.479 believers are the most hope filled people on the planet. Uh. And I 21 00:02:34.520 --> 00:02:37.479 think it's normal for us. I mean, if we're in communion with Holy 22 00:02:37.520 --> 00:02:40.840 Spirit, anybody in communion, okay, a couple of us, if you're 23 00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:46.960 in communion with Holy Spirit, then your your your brain bucket is going to 24 00:02:46.960 --> 00:02:51.120 be filled with hope. Like every day you're going to have stuff going on, 25 00:02:51.439 --> 00:02:55.280 Like stuff's going to be springing up out of you, right because you're 26 00:02:55.560 --> 00:03:02.039 you're high on Holy Spirit. Anybody high on Holy Spirit, building we are 27 00:03:02.439 --> 00:03:09.719 we are tapped into Heaven, right, And so hope and vision and dreams. 28 00:03:09.800 --> 00:03:13.360 I mean, this is the language of heaven. It's the language of 29 00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:19.159 the Spirit. Therefore it's normal for us. And I say that to say 30 00:03:19.240 --> 00:03:25.639 even that if you aren't abounding in dreams, visions, hope, and if 31 00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:34.039 you aren't abounding in that stuff, then you need help. Come to restore 32 00:03:34.120 --> 00:03:38.719 life. Come to an encounter night right, Come to the twenty four to 33 00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:44.479 seven prayer room, I mean press in you know bring I mean right, 34 00:03:44.560 --> 00:03:50.400 you got there's something stifling you. If you're a born again believer, if 35 00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:55.039 you're born against spirit filled believer, something is stifling in you. If you 36 00:03:55.080 --> 00:04:01.319 aren't urpen and burpen hope and vision and dreams every day, every day, 37 00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:06.800 every day, And if you don't have new vision, dream or hope, 38 00:04:06.919 --> 00:04:13.400 then if you aren't you know, regurgitating the one you had, you know, 39 00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:20.160 right, and putting a framework on it and building around it. Vision 40 00:04:20.480 --> 00:04:29.160 builds what faith sees. Faith sees stuff. Vision builds stuff. Vision builds 41 00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:34.839 what faith sees. Got to say it right, wisdom, Wisdom builds what 42 00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:44.319 faith sees. That's what I meant that, right, Okay, So that's 43 00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:46.639 where we started. Last week. We talked about guarding your heart because we 44 00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:54.519 reproduce what we focus on, and I want to move into something consistent with 45 00:04:54.560 --> 00:04:59.560 that today. I want to just talk about how how sometimes we're being ministered 46 00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:08.199 to by the biggest hope, vision, dream, inspirational killer on the planet, 47 00:05:09.800 --> 00:05:15.480 and that there is, and the framework of it, though it doesn't 48 00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:18.399 it doesn't come with a pitchfork, doesn't come with a red suit or horns, 49 00:05:18.839 --> 00:05:25.199 but the framework of it is that it's arguments that bring doubt and unbelief. 50 00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:31.720 Doubt, distrust and unbelief, and a lot of times I think we're 51 00:05:31.720 --> 00:05:35.639 getting ministered to and we don't even know it. Like that stuff could be 52 00:05:35.680 --> 00:05:40.560 happening and we don't know it. But if we tolerate it, or if 53 00:05:40.600 --> 00:05:43.759 we allow it, or if we don't stand against it, or if we 54 00:05:43.839 --> 00:05:47.959 don't confront it, then what happens is it begins to take ground. It 55 00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:53.000 begins to take ground, and once it takes some ground, it'll build a 56 00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:58.040 fence. Right, So, I mean that's it's the law of adverse possession 57 00:05:58.160 --> 00:06:03.199 in our state is that if you your neighbor uses your property for ten years 58 00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:10.600 and you don't confront them, then at the end of ten years it's their 59 00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:15.600 property. They can claim the property and they can put up a fence if 60 00:06:15.639 --> 00:06:19.360 you don't confront them, and that's called adverse possession. Well, I think 61 00:06:19.399 --> 00:06:24.879 the enemy has a lot of adverse possession going on in the hearts and lives 62 00:06:24.920 --> 00:06:29.480 of believers, that the enemy is encroaching on us, and we don't realize 63 00:06:29.480 --> 00:06:34.000 it's the enemy. We think it's our thoughts most of the time, the 64 00:06:34.079 --> 00:06:38.439 thoughts that contradict the leading of the Lord, the word of the Lord, 65 00:06:38.480 --> 00:06:41.480 the mind of the Lord, the spear of the Lord. Most of the 66 00:06:41.519 --> 00:06:46.959 time, those thoughts are not your thoughts at all. Those thoughts are a 67 00:06:46.079 --> 00:06:50.480 witness from an unclean spirit, and you don't realize that they're not your thoughts. 68 00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:56.519 So you don't like, you're not into rebuking your thoughts, Dwayne, 69 00:06:56.560 --> 00:07:05.639 I rebuke you know, most of us don't rebuke ourselves. So thinking that's 70 00:07:05.759 --> 00:07:13.680 just me, then we tolerate, or we meditate, or we give place 71 00:07:13.800 --> 00:07:19.600 to or we argue with the thing that's arguing with the word of God, 72 00:07:19.720 --> 00:07:23.639 the will of God, the mind of God, the spirit of God, 73 00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:29.319 the leading of God, and most of this stuff it's just, you know, 74 00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:35.120 it's arguing. It's arguing in such a way that it causes if we 75 00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:39.920 pay attention to it, it causes us to have a little bit of doubt 76 00:07:40.839 --> 00:07:46.360 and distrust of God. And just a little bit of doubt and distrust of 77 00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:59.720 God can ruin the downloads of creativity out of heaven. Your destiny is to 78 00:07:59.800 --> 00:08:05.160 co instantly be downloading how to live, how to walk, how to overcome 79 00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:13.600 all of Earth's solutions, all of Earth's solutions come from the man who is 80 00:08:13.680 --> 00:08:26.560 leading the Earth. Jesus didn't come and just have a stint here, like 81 00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:30.879 just a stint, all right, thirty three and a half years. He's 82 00:08:30.959 --> 00:08:33.799 done. He's back up to Heaven, okay, and he's left us here. 83 00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:39.840 It wasn't just a stint of him on the earth, and he's done 84 00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:45.480 with the Earth. No, the Earth is his primary concern. It's not 85 00:08:45.720 --> 00:08:52.039 just humanity, it's the Earth, the Earth. That's why he says, 86 00:08:52.080 --> 00:08:58.399 pray this way, thy Kingdom, come, Thy will be done on earth 87 00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:07.159 as it is in heaven. The solutions for the Earth reside with the heavenly 88 00:09:07.200 --> 00:09:18.480 man who has ascended in his humanity though an incorruptible body. He's ascended to 89 00:09:18.679 --> 00:09:28.399 ever represent us, to ever intercede for us, and to constantly download because 90 00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:35.039 our assignment really hasn't changed. Adam's assignment was to heavenize the Earth. That's 91 00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:39.679 Adam's assignment. First, Adam's assignment was to heavenize the Earth. Second, 92 00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:48.159 Adam came same assignment, heavenize the Earth. That when we have communion with 93 00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:52.799 them, and that's why when we abide in him, his word will abide 94 00:09:52.879 --> 00:10:01.919 in us, and we will bear much fruit and then we can have anize 95 00:10:03.000 --> 00:10:07.759 the earth. So it's not just you have to be constantly thinking, you 96 00:10:07.879 --> 00:10:15.360 like tewod Peter chapter one one through four. Through his magnificent promises, he 97 00:10:15.399 --> 00:10:22.200 has given to us everything for life and godliness. The religious mind says, 98 00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:26.480 oh, He's only given us everything for godliness. That's the religious mind. 99 00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:31.840 Oh, everything, everything for godliness. God's really only concerned about godliness. 100 00:10:33.080 --> 00:10:35.360 That's the religious mind. That is not the word of God. The word 101 00:10:35.360 --> 00:10:41.639 of God is He's given us everything for life and for godliness through the precious 102 00:10:41.639 --> 00:10:48.159 and magnificent promises that we would become partakers of the divine nature, and that 103 00:10:48.200 --> 00:10:56.559 we would overcome the corruption that's been loosed in the earth through deception. This 104 00:10:56.639 --> 00:11:01.759 is God's this is God's plan. His plan has hasn't changed. We have 105 00:11:01.919 --> 00:11:09.759 become those now that are Christised, Christianized, anointed. Christ is the anointed 106 00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:16.840 one. We are the ones now that carry the enablement of heaven. But 107 00:11:16.879 --> 00:11:20.039 there's things that block it. There's things that get in the way. One 108 00:11:20.080 --> 00:11:22.399 of those things one of the most important things that we have to kick out 109 00:11:22.679 --> 00:11:26.320 of our lives. And I mean, if you've got to kick it out 110 00:11:26.360 --> 00:11:28.840 ten times, if you've got it in a day, if you got to 111 00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:33.720 get a twenty times in a day, is doubt and distrust of God, 112 00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:39.000 his leading and his word. Doubt and distrust of God, his leading and 113 00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:43.679 his word. And it doesn't matter what word it is, like the word 114 00:11:43.440 --> 00:11:48.759 the word of that we should have a sabbath and keep a sabbath. Holy 115 00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:54.440 God's not trying to take away from you. God's trying to prosper you. 116 00:11:54.759 --> 00:11:58.960 God's trying to bless you. It doesn't matter what it is. It's if 117 00:11:58.000 --> 00:12:03.399 it's the word to tell the truth and don't bear false witness. This is 118 00:12:03.440 --> 00:12:07.600 God trying to bless you and trying to help you and trying to prosper you 119 00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:18.159 everything. And this is actually the number one key to overcoming doubt and distrust 120 00:12:18.200 --> 00:12:24.039 of God is believing that you will see the goodness of God, that God 121 00:12:24.159 --> 00:12:31.519 is good, and that you will see his goodness. This is this is 122 00:12:31.639 --> 00:12:35.840 this is like number one on the list. Number one on the list is 123 00:12:35.840 --> 00:12:45.240 for you to become totally deeply assured that God is good, that every commandment 124 00:12:45.279 --> 00:12:50.440 of God, that every law of God, that every word of God actually 125 00:12:50.639 --> 00:13:03.360 results in your benefit and not in your decrease. You know, even the 126 00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:07.000 son had to believe that. Even the son had to believed that. So 127 00:13:07.039 --> 00:13:13.559 Philippians too have this mind in you. That was also in Christ, Jesus, 128 00:13:15.039 --> 00:13:18.600 who humbled himself even to the point of death, who on the form 129 00:13:18.639 --> 00:13:26.840 of a servant, humbled himself even to the point of death right and has 130 00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:37.159 therefore and thereby been raised up to the highest place. Everything God calls you 131 00:13:37.279 --> 00:13:43.600 to give up is meant to raise you up, not to keep you down. 132 00:13:46.879 --> 00:13:48.840 If you don't believe that, then you can't follow God. If you 133 00:13:48.840 --> 00:13:52.080 don't believe that, you'll hear a lying word, If you don't believe that, 134 00:13:52.120 --> 00:13:56.200 you'll listen to an argument. If you don't believe that, you'll allow 135 00:13:56.279 --> 00:14:00.039 the enemy to mess with you. If you don't believe that, then and 136 00:14:00.039 --> 00:14:03.840 then you will be taking thoughts. Right Matthew six' twenty five talking about 137 00:14:03.919 --> 00:14:09.039 don't worry about your stuff, he says, take no thought for tomorrow, 138 00:14:09.320 --> 00:14:11.759 take no thought another words, don't take another thought, don't take some other 139 00:14:11.840 --> 00:14:16.679 thought. Don't take some thought that God isn't good, that God isn't sufficient, 140 00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:20.440 that God isn't enough. Don't take another thought, don't listen to another 141 00:14:20.480 --> 00:14:24.240 thought. Don't give place to another thought, don't have room for another thought. 142 00:14:24.559 --> 00:14:28.960 That is a lying thought. Any thought that contradicts God's goodness is a 143 00:14:28.159 --> 00:14:39.320 lying thought. So even the Sun modeled this for us, Even the Son 144 00:14:39.720 --> 00:14:43.799 modeled this for us, and it worked out pretty good for him. Now 145 00:14:43.799 --> 00:14:46.799 he's seated at the right hand of the Father. Now he's seated at in 146 00:14:46.879 --> 00:14:50.840 the highest place, above every name that is named, above all principality and 147 00:14:50.919 --> 00:14:56.000 power. Why because he he was willing to obey to go to the lowest 148 00:14:56.039 --> 00:15:07.600 place. But it's all about trusting and believing that God is ultimately good. 149 00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:09.759 And no matter what he calls you to do, no matter what he leads 150 00:15:09.799 --> 00:15:13.519 you to do, no matter what he commands you to do, if it's 151 00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:18.080 telling the truth, if it's honoring the Tithe, if it's honoring the Sabbath, 152 00:15:18.399 --> 00:15:22.159 if it's if it's loving your neighbor, no matter what he calls you 153 00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:28.559 to do, it will always result in increase for you, not decrease. 154 00:15:28.240 --> 00:15:33.600 It will always result in increase for you. He's never trying to get from 155 00:15:33.679 --> 00:15:37.159 you. He's trying to add to you. God is a good God, 156 00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:45.639 He's a covenant keeping God, and he's trying to increase you, and you're 157 00:15:45.679 --> 00:15:50.840 gonna inherit the earth. You've already inherited the earth. You just you're just 158 00:15:50.840 --> 00:15:56.000 waiting for the final check. But the meek will inherit the earth, meek 159 00:15:56.120 --> 00:16:00.279 enough to walk with Jesus, who is the heir of the earth as the 160 00:16:00.320 --> 00:16:11.200 supreme Man. And now you're a joint heir with him. So doubt, 161 00:16:11.360 --> 00:16:15.320 doubt, and unbelief. I just, I want to, I want to. 162 00:16:17.039 --> 00:16:21.080 I just I think you have to know that if you will crush, 163 00:16:21.399 --> 00:16:26.279 if you will crush this question about God's goodness, then you will be able 164 00:16:26.399 --> 00:16:37.440 to dismiss and crush doubt and distrust of God. I think these two doubt 165 00:16:37.440 --> 00:16:41.799 and distrust of God or demonic cousins, meant to keep you from an open 166 00:16:41.840 --> 00:16:45.399 heart toward Him, meant to keep you from the creativity of Heaven's imagination, 167 00:16:47.120 --> 00:16:51.360 meant to keep you grounded and low and in the dirt. And they minister 168 00:16:51.480 --> 00:16:55.679 to our mind, will, emotions, and reasoning. Sometimes they masquerade his 169 00:16:55.799 --> 00:17:02.480 higher wisdom, sometimes as accusation against God, sometimes as comparison with others who've 170 00:17:02.519 --> 00:17:07.400 suffered or didn't see the goodness of God, sometimes as reasoning, sometimes as 171 00:17:07.440 --> 00:17:15.279 caution sometimes as procrastination, sometimes as disqualification, sometimes as legalism, sometimes as 172 00:17:15.359 --> 00:17:23.759 false grace, sometimes as arguments of sovereignty. Well, if God wants that 173 00:17:23.880 --> 00:17:33.279 for me, he'll bring that to pass, I guess. Sometimes sometimes as 174 00:17:33.599 --> 00:17:37.359 yes, it's for others, but not for me, not for you. 175 00:17:37.640 --> 00:17:44.559 It's it's for others but not for you. But I want you to look 176 00:17:44.599 --> 00:17:47.720 at I want you to look at the Father of Faith, just for a 177 00:17:47.720 --> 00:17:49.640 moment. Well, okay, I want you to look at the Father of 178 00:17:49.680 --> 00:17:55.079 Faith, because I was looking at this and I was thinking about Abraham again, 179 00:17:55.839 --> 00:17:59.200 and I was thinking about number one, his calling out of error. 180 00:17:59.680 --> 00:18:03.160 And we don't realize that when he was called out of err, he was 181 00:18:03.160 --> 00:18:11.960 called out of an inhabitation, a habitation of two hundred and fifty thousand people, 182 00:18:11.119 --> 00:18:15.839 er of the Keldies at the time of Abrams calling out, had a 183 00:18:15.920 --> 00:18:21.119 population of two hundred and fifty people. It was the home of the Sumerian 184 00:18:21.359 --> 00:18:26.279 kings, and all of our archaeology has proven all of us. I mean, 185 00:18:26.319 --> 00:18:32.920 they had fancy houses, they had restrooms, They were importing and exporting 186 00:18:33.079 --> 00:18:41.480 drain dates, fish, skins, leather. It was a manufacturing center for 187 00:18:41.599 --> 00:18:52.799 textile where they were exporting wool. It was this beautiful place and God finds 188 00:18:52.839 --> 00:18:55.880 him and it's a place of idolatry. And this has always been, by 189 00:18:55.880 --> 00:19:00.440 the way, with every nation, with every demigod, with every ilohem, 190 00:19:00.640 --> 00:19:10.279 with every spirit, with every idol, with every unclean territorial spirit that's existed, 191 00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:15.839 from the time of Adam's fall. The promise has always been blessing, 192 00:19:17.319 --> 00:19:22.640 increase, prosperity, favor that's been, that's always been. That's always been 193 00:19:22.720 --> 00:19:30.240 the pros the promise, and it's still the promise today. Will you will 194 00:19:30.279 --> 00:19:33.480 you increase under the favor of God or will you increase under the favor of 195 00:19:33.519 --> 00:19:38.000 the demonic realm? Who will you work with? Will you will you listen 196 00:19:38.200 --> 00:19:45.200 and follow the spirit of God? Or will you listen and follow your own 197 00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:49.079 pathway which is knit to the demonic realm if it's uncrucified and hasn't been brought 198 00:19:49.079 --> 00:19:53.000 to the cross. And this is this has always been, And so it 199 00:19:53.119 --> 00:19:59.039 was in Samaria in Eer the Kalvis is that you've got all these folks there 200 00:19:59.359 --> 00:20:03.920 and it's an eye idolatrous place, and there's demon spirits leading to people, 201 00:20:03.960 --> 00:20:10.279 and the people are seeking to please these demon spirits. And this is the 202 00:20:10.319 --> 00:20:14.160 way it's been in all of these nations. So those who would bring rain, 203 00:20:14.480 --> 00:20:17.960 those who would bring sun, those who would bring fertility, those who 204 00:20:17.960 --> 00:20:22.240 would bless the womb, those who would bless the crops, every kind of 205 00:20:22.279 --> 00:20:26.720 God. And that's the way it was when Abram was called out of that 206 00:20:26.799 --> 00:20:30.640 place. And he's called out of that place. But it's interesting that God 207 00:20:30.720 --> 00:20:34.680 appeals to him with the same thing that the unclean appeals. He appeals to 208 00:20:34.720 --> 00:20:41.079 him with the So you have to realize that the beginning of Abram's call is 209 00:20:41.160 --> 00:20:48.240 a call that is a covenant unto blessing, and it's asking him, will 210 00:20:48.279 --> 00:20:53.920 you abandon the gods of your family? Will you abandon the gods of your 211 00:20:53.960 --> 00:21:00.480 fathers, Will you abandon the gods of er? Will you abandon those gods? 212 00:21:00.759 --> 00:21:04.440 And will you choose me because I'm the true God? And listen to 213 00:21:04.519 --> 00:21:11.519 Genesis chapter twelve, because see we're told and there is this thing out there 214 00:21:11.599 --> 00:21:15.920 in Christianity. And I just want to tell you today that as you listen 215 00:21:17.000 --> 00:21:21.279 to it, because it visits every single person, there's this thing out there 216 00:21:21.279 --> 00:21:25.920 in Christianity that God doesn't want to prosper you. God doesn't care about your 217 00:21:25.960 --> 00:21:30.319 prosperity. That it's a wrong motive even to think about that. It's a 218 00:21:30.359 --> 00:21:33.640 wrong motive to think about blessing. It's a wrong motive to think about prosperity 219 00:21:34.079 --> 00:21:42.000 or increase or success or fruitfulness. And that's out there. And not only 220 00:21:42.079 --> 00:21:48.079 is it out there, but it's in the air, it's in the spirit 221 00:21:48.279 --> 00:21:52.759 realm, and it'll visit It's an equal opportunity demon spirit, and it'll visit 222 00:21:52.839 --> 00:21:56.759 you as well as and if you'll listen to it. And you might think, 223 00:21:56.920 --> 00:22:00.119 well, yeah, but that pertains to selfish motives. That pertains the 224 00:22:00.200 --> 00:22:06.920 selfish things and true, true, the access of the demonic realm to you 225 00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:15.680 is your own vulnerability and your own need. But it's a pre wired need. 226 00:22:15.680 --> 00:22:21.960 You didn't wire yourself. You didn't put your computer chip in. God 227 00:22:22.079 --> 00:22:26.480 put the computer chip in you that seeks to overcome the curse. That's not 228 00:22:26.519 --> 00:22:30.000 an evil desire. God put the computer chip in you that desires to be 229 00:22:30.039 --> 00:22:36.319 fruitful. That's not an evil thing. To be fruitful? What's evil? 230 00:22:36.359 --> 00:22:40.160 Are you going to do it under God's dominion and under the leading of the 231 00:22:40.200 --> 00:22:42.720 Lord, or are you and are you going to and are you going to 232 00:22:42.759 --> 00:22:48.400 do it by elevating wealth or increase as your God, or are you going 233 00:22:48.440 --> 00:22:56.359 to do it in a partnership with the demonic rome. That's what makes prosperity, 234 00:22:56.960 --> 00:23:03.079 success, fruitfulness, anything, blessing. What makes any of that unclean 235 00:23:06.480 --> 00:23:12.200 is a partnership with the demonic rem That's what makes it unclean. The desire 236 00:23:12.279 --> 00:23:18.240 within you is not unclean. It's who you partner with that makes it unclean, 237 00:23:19.599 --> 00:23:23.119 because who you partner with, if you partner with the wrong source, 238 00:23:25.559 --> 00:23:30.599 then that becomes your God. But it's interesting, you know, and you're 239 00:23:30.599 --> 00:23:34.400 familiar with it. Genesis chapter twelve. This is when he first calls Abram 240 00:23:34.480 --> 00:23:38.119 out, and Abram is the father of all of those who walk by faith, 241 00:23:38.200 --> 00:23:42.240 even us we've been grafted into the Abrahamic Covenant. He says, get 242 00:23:42.279 --> 00:23:47.039 out of your country, Get out from your family and from your father's house 243 00:23:47.319 --> 00:23:51.400 to a land that I will show you, and I will make you a 244 00:23:51.559 --> 00:23:56.079 great nation, and I will bless you. I was just listening to the 245 00:23:56.119 --> 00:24:04.720 service today, every song, every scripture, every word, from Angela to 246 00:24:04.799 --> 00:24:10.559 Pastor Joel to whatever, everything's had a little blessing twist to it. Have 247 00:24:10.640 --> 00:24:15.839 you noticed that everything's had a little blessing twisted even you know, the call 248 00:24:17.200 --> 00:24:18.480 for us to get a breakthrough. Why would you want to break through? 249 00:24:18.519 --> 00:24:22.160 I don't understand why you'd want to break through. That sounds so evil. 250 00:24:22.680 --> 00:24:27.200 Don't you want to break down? Isn't it better that we break down? 251 00:24:27.240 --> 00:24:30.720 It's better that you break down, isn't that? Isn't it God's will that 252 00:24:30.759 --> 00:24:34.799 you break down? Why would you want to break through? You see, 253 00:24:34.880 --> 00:24:41.559 we are pre wired to dominate, We're pre wired to overcome. We are 254 00:24:41.680 --> 00:24:48.839 pre wired toward blessing and fruitfulness. Because there's a part of us that remembers 255 00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:52.640 Eden, and when the Holy Spirit comes, he quickens the part of us 256 00:24:52.960 --> 00:24:59.160 that remembers Eden. There's a part of us that remembers that this is where 257 00:24:59.200 --> 00:25:03.200 we came from. Every one of us have our roots in Eden, which 258 00:25:03.599 --> 00:25:11.960 was Heaven on Earth. That's where we have our roots. And we can't 259 00:25:11.000 --> 00:25:19.079 get there. There's no way to get there outwardly and inwardly together if we're 260 00:25:19.079 --> 00:25:26.880 hooked up to the demonic realm. But when we hook up to heaven, 261 00:25:26.839 --> 00:25:32.559 then suddenly the creativity of heaven, the life of heaven, the word of 262 00:25:32.559 --> 00:25:37.200 heaven, the understanding of heaven, the solutions of heaven can begin to be 263 00:25:37.440 --> 00:25:44.000 downloaded within us. And that's not evil, that's not evil, that's God's 264 00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:48.039 will. But because he knows, if you're born in the spirit, you 265 00:25:48.160 --> 00:25:53.960 won't worship wealth, you won't worship money. You won't put money ahead of 266 00:25:55.039 --> 00:25:57.640 him. You'll remember who gave it to you. We'll read that in a 267 00:25:57.640 --> 00:26:03.519 minute. You will. You'll remember that it's all of him and it's not 268 00:26:03.720 --> 00:26:12.960 of you. I will bless you and make you. I will make you 269 00:26:14.000 --> 00:26:17.480 a great nation. I will bless you. I will make your name great. 270 00:26:17.519 --> 00:26:21.240 Now that just sounds sinful right there. I will make your name great. 271 00:26:22.839 --> 00:26:27.400 No, I'm serious. Across the denominational sphere of any church in America 272 00:26:27.440 --> 00:26:33.240 today, you could hear a sermon that would tell you that kind of thinking 273 00:26:33.519 --> 00:26:40.279 would be evil and wrong and carnal and fleshly. But God's telling him it's 274 00:26:40.359 --> 00:26:42.559 not because I'm going to do it for you. You're not going to make 275 00:26:42.599 --> 00:26:47.119 your name great. You're not going to bless yourself. Do you remember even 276 00:26:47.119 --> 00:26:51.039 in Genesis chapter fourteen, two chapters later, when he comes back from the 277 00:26:51.079 --> 00:26:56.160 war where he beat up those five kings, remember that, and the King 278 00:26:56.200 --> 00:26:57.400 of Sodom says, I'm going to give you all this wealth. And he 279 00:26:57.440 --> 00:27:03.200 says, no, take a thing from you. Lest you say that you 280 00:27:03.319 --> 00:27:08.640 made Abram wealthy, lest you say that you made Abram rich. Because there's 281 00:27:08.680 --> 00:27:14.119 only going to be one person that ever gets the credit for anything that ever 282 00:27:14.160 --> 00:27:18.400 comes in my life that is a blessing, and that is God Almighty. 283 00:27:18.440 --> 00:27:25.000 It's God Almighty that blessed me and set me apart. And so he knew 284 00:27:25.079 --> 00:27:29.720 something. I'm not saying you shouldn't receive a blessing from somebody. No, 285 00:27:29.720 --> 00:27:33.440 no, no, that's not the thrust. The thrust is he knew something 286 00:27:33.440 --> 00:27:37.759 about the king of Sodom. Abram was a prophet. The Bible tells us 287 00:27:37.799 --> 00:27:41.920 he had a prophetic utterance on his life. He understood that if he receives 288 00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:47.160 something from that king, that king was going to brag how he made Abram 289 00:27:47.240 --> 00:28:00.440 rich. So therefore he knew not to receive that. And you shall be 290 00:28:00.519 --> 00:28:08.079 a blessing. You can't be a blessing if you haven't been blessed. Hello, 291 00:28:08.200 --> 00:28:17.759 somebody, we got to change a diaper yesterday on Jackson. I mean, 292 00:28:17.839 --> 00:28:21.680 Jackson's not blessing us except for a few giggles and smiles, and this 293 00:28:21.759 --> 00:28:25.119 and that, a few poohs in the diaper. Come on, now, 294 00:28:26.039 --> 00:28:27.839 do you know, if you haven't been blessed, you haven't got much to 295 00:28:27.839 --> 00:28:32.640 give. Little brown things pop out sometimes are green. That's all he's got 296 00:28:32.680 --> 00:28:41.079 to give. You got to grow into something to be a blessing. But 297 00:28:41.119 --> 00:28:45.759 it's God working in you, both the will and to do of his good 298 00:28:45.799 --> 00:28:52.079 purpose to grow you into something so that you can be a blessing. But 299 00:28:52.119 --> 00:28:56.519 if you're believing, well, maybe it's not God's will to prosperous. Well, 300 00:28:56.559 --> 00:29:00.279 I've heard that's a bad motive, and I've heard that's unclean. And 301 00:29:00.440 --> 00:29:03.920 what happens is when he gives you those little leadings, when he gives you 302 00:29:04.000 --> 00:29:10.720 direction, when he calls you to make a sacrifice or to do something that 303 00:29:10.920 --> 00:29:14.559 appears to be expensive, like just you, given that you could all be 304 00:29:14.599 --> 00:29:18.480 working right now making thirty fifty bucks an hour. You could all be working 305 00:29:18.559 --> 00:29:21.079 right now. But he says, no, the Sabbath day is mine. 306 00:29:21.319 --> 00:29:26.079 If you'll keep it holy, I'll bless you now. Satan comes along and 307 00:29:26.119 --> 00:29:30.079 says, holy, my foot, what are you doing. You could be 308 00:29:30.119 --> 00:29:33.960 making forty bucks an hour right now. You're wasting all of this time, 309 00:29:34.279 --> 00:29:37.119 go make some money. But you're believing. No, no, no, 310 00:29:37.119 --> 00:29:42.920 no no. This is Hebrews eleven six, after Hebrews eleven one about faith 311 00:29:44.000 --> 00:29:48.640 Hebrews eleven six. Those that come to God must believe that he is and 312 00:29:48.720 --> 00:29:55.480 that he is the rewarder of those who diligently seek him. Did you hear 313 00:29:55.519 --> 00:30:00.079 the word rewarder right there? I heard the word rewarders Chapter eleven one, 314 00:30:00.279 --> 00:30:04.920 verse six. That he is the rewarder of those who diligently seek him. 315 00:30:06.079 --> 00:30:08.279 He's a rewarder. Now, when you come to God, if you don't 316 00:30:08.279 --> 00:30:12.559 believe he's a rewarder, you have not armed yourself with the power to obey 317 00:30:12.640 --> 00:30:19.079 him. You do not have the power to obey him and overcome doubt and 318 00:30:19.160 --> 00:30:26.640 distrust. If you will not believe he's a rewarder, he will take every 319 00:30:26.759 --> 00:30:32.480 sacrifice and turn it into a trophy for his name, and turn it into 320 00:30:32.599 --> 00:30:36.759 increase. On your behalf. He can get his will done through you and 321 00:30:36.920 --> 00:30:42.240 bless you at the same time. He can make you a king and a 322 00:30:42.319 --> 00:30:52.440 servant at the same time, prime minister, prime minister, a king and 323 00:30:52.519 --> 00:30:59.079 a servant at the same time. They coexist in you. They coexist in 324 00:30:59.160 --> 00:31:03.319 you and a servant. They both coexist in you. He can do this. 325 00:31:11.759 --> 00:31:17.559 When you believe this fully, then you can dismiss every thought that comes 326 00:31:18.319 --> 00:31:22.920 that argues with God's leading and God's will, no matter what he's calling you 327 00:31:22.000 --> 00:31:29.880 to do, no matter how expensive it seems, it's never it's never a 328 00:31:29.960 --> 00:31:36.200 sacrifice alone. It's always an investment. It's always an investment. It will 329 00:31:36.200 --> 00:31:41.359 always pay greater dividends than you could ever dream. It's always an investment. 330 00:31:42.680 --> 00:31:47.599 Deuteronomy. I gotta read this to you. Deuteronomy twenty eight. Deuteronomy eight 331 00:31:47.640 --> 00:31:49.200 and twenty eight. Listen, this is ever the children of Israel. You 332 00:31:49.200 --> 00:31:56.519 got to realize, the children of Israel, we're a type of what we 333 00:31:56.559 --> 00:32:04.079 walk. They were delivered out of bondage. Oh, we're delivered out of 334 00:32:04.079 --> 00:32:09.359 bondage. They were taken through the Red Sea, which was baptism. They 335 00:32:09.400 --> 00:32:16.279 crossed over Jordan to go into the Promise, but the Jordan was stopped at 336 00:32:16.319 --> 00:32:25.119 a town called Adam. Did you know that? I didn't know that before. 337 00:32:25.160 --> 00:32:28.799 I didn't know that. A couple of years ago. The Jordan river. 338 00:32:28.880 --> 00:32:32.799 Look it up. The Jordan River was stopped up when they crossed over 339 00:32:34.079 --> 00:32:38.960 at a town called Adam. I'm telling you, the children of Israel, 340 00:32:39.200 --> 00:32:45.599 it's all a metaphoric story of our reality. And they went into their promised 341 00:32:45.680 --> 00:32:51.160 land, and they had to drive out seven nations mightier than them. Those 342 00:32:51.240 --> 00:32:57.640 nations represented demon spirits. Every single the name of every nation actually represents a 343 00:32:58.400 --> 00:33:04.839 demonic overlord, a demonic principality. And they had to drive them out. 344 00:33:05.240 --> 00:33:12.359 But the driving was easy as long as they partnered with God. I mean, 345 00:33:12.920 --> 00:33:16.519 this is but here, this is the prelude to it, the prelude 346 00:33:16.599 --> 00:33:21.920 to it that was wetting the appetite. Right, this is the appetizer of 347 00:33:22.160 --> 00:33:25.640 that eve of all of that was Deuteronomy eight. Listen, Therefore, you 348 00:33:25.680 --> 00:33:29.799 shall keep the commandments of the Lord your God to walk in his ways and 349 00:33:29.839 --> 00:33:31.880 to fear him. For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good 350 00:33:32.039 --> 00:33:36.440 land. Everybody say, good land. A land of brooks of water, 351 00:33:36.519 --> 00:33:39.240 of fountains and springs that flow out of valleys and hills, a land of 352 00:33:39.240 --> 00:33:44.359 wheat and barley, of figs of vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a 353 00:33:44.440 --> 00:33:46.880 land of olive oil and honey. A land in which you shall eat bread 354 00:33:46.920 --> 00:33:52.960 without scarcity. Everybody say, without scarcity in which you will lack nothing. 355 00:33:52.960 --> 00:33:57.039 Everybody say, lack nothing, A land which stones are iron, and out 356 00:33:57.079 --> 00:34:00.960 of whose hills you can dig copper. When you have eaten and are full, 357 00:34:00.039 --> 00:34:02.759 And when you then you shall bless the Lord your God for the good 358 00:34:02.799 --> 00:34:08.440 land which he's given you. Verse eleven. Beware that you do not forget 359 00:34:08.440 --> 00:34:14.840 the Lord your God by not keeping his commandments, his judgments, his statutes. 360 00:34:15.000 --> 00:34:16.760 Was I command you today, lest when you've eaten in are full, 361 00:34:16.800 --> 00:34:22.000 and have been and have built beautiful houses and dwell in them. Now listen, 362 00:34:22.079 --> 00:34:27.559 there's a warning. There's a warning he's taking. Now this is all 363 00:34:27.639 --> 00:34:30.119 prelude, like he's just painting this big old vision for them because they haven't 364 00:34:30.119 --> 00:34:35.559 even gone in yet, right, But this is what they're going into. 365 00:34:36.079 --> 00:34:44.039 This that they went into is the reality of what you're called to. Oh, 366 00:34:44.119 --> 00:34:46.960 right, even now, even now with wars and rumors of wars and 367 00:34:47.639 --> 00:34:54.679 trauma and difficulty and problems and Russia and Gauza and yeah, even now, 368 00:34:55.480 --> 00:35:01.440 the calling the anoint thing the covenant has ceased, It hasn't stopped. It's 369 00:35:01.440 --> 00:35:09.480 still flowing to those who believe. You got to believe it. In the 370 00:35:09.519 --> 00:35:14.079 little stuff you got to believe it even in the personal stuff. If you 371 00:35:14.119 --> 00:35:16.760 don't believe it in the little stuff and the personal stuff, you will not 372 00:35:16.880 --> 00:35:21.519 believe God when he gives you a big command, when he gives you a 373 00:35:21.559 --> 00:35:25.199 big direction, when he gives you a big thing to do. Uh uh, 374 00:35:27.440 --> 00:35:30.880 no way, Papa, Sorry, I'm busy. What are you busy 375 00:35:30.920 --> 00:35:35.159 doing trying to make a living? Well, why are you trying to make 376 00:35:35.159 --> 00:35:45.719 a living when I will cause all those things to pursue you and chase you 377 00:35:45.840 --> 00:35:50.159 down. Oh that's rudronomy twenty eight. All right, So let's go on 378 00:35:50.639 --> 00:35:53.920 verse seventeen. Then you will say in your heart, my power and the 379 00:35:54.039 --> 00:36:02.800 might of my hand have gained me this wealth. No, he says verse 380 00:36:02.800 --> 00:36:09.360 eighteen. Remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you 381 00:36:09.800 --> 00:36:16.039 the power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant, which he 382 00:36:16.199 --> 00:36:23.119 swore. Oh my goodness, how does God establish the covenant? How does 383 00:36:23.159 --> 00:36:31.000 God establish means? Prove, prove out, make good on, verify, 384 00:36:32.320 --> 00:36:39.199 signify, and give credential to the covenant. Now we're a few generations down 385 00:36:39.280 --> 00:36:45.360 the road from Abraham. This is the Covenant of Abraham, but it becomes 386 00:36:45.440 --> 00:36:51.320 known as the Covenant of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. That's the covenant. 387 00:36:51.599 --> 00:36:57.599 Those are the fathers. He says, Here's how I establish, prove, 388 00:36:57.960 --> 00:37:04.440 certify, signify, seal, manifest to make good on the covenant that I 389 00:37:04.519 --> 00:37:07.400 swore to your father. And see how I do it. Here's how I 390 00:37:07.440 --> 00:37:17.880 do it. I give you the power to create wealth. He doesn't just 391 00:37:17.920 --> 00:37:22.599 do it with a happy heart. I'm poor, but I got a happy 392 00:37:22.599 --> 00:37:25.639 heart. You're believing for something. No, I'm not believing for anything. 393 00:37:27.920 --> 00:37:30.679 Come on, now, you can't find the sinners that aren't believing for something. 394 00:37:31.320 --> 00:37:37.199 He love somebody. But if you find believers anywhere across the planet, 395 00:37:37.400 --> 00:37:45.280 Every believer anywhere across the planet is believing for something better and something good if 396 00:37:45.320 --> 00:37:53.119 they're tuned into Holy spirit. Stand with me this morning, then you will 397 00:37:53.119 --> 00:37:58.039 say, my power and the wealth of my hand gained me this wealth. 398 00:37:58.199 --> 00:38:04.199 But no, remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives 399 00:38:04.199 --> 00:38:08.639 you the power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he 400 00:38:08.880 --> 00:38:20.000 swore to your father's. As it is this day. You know what David 401 00:38:20.039 --> 00:38:25.159 said. I would have fainted. I would have lost heart. I would 402 00:38:25.159 --> 00:38:32.079 have fainted. I would have lost heart unless I had believed that I would 403 00:38:32.079 --> 00:38:39.679 see the goodness of the Lord in the Land of the Living. Did you 404 00:38:39.719 --> 00:38:43.760 hear that? I would have lost heart? I would have fainted, I 405 00:38:43.760 --> 00:38:49.599 would have lost heart unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of 406 00:38:49.679 --> 00:38:58.199 the Lord in the Land of the Living. Eyes closed everywhere across the building 407 00:38:58.199 --> 00:39:01.480 today, I believe the enemy to wrestle with us, wants to argue with 408 00:39:01.559 --> 00:39:09.639 us. I believe sometimes we let these thoughts encroach upon our mind. They 409 00:39:09.719 --> 00:39:14.880 encroach upon the Word, the commandments, the decrees, They encroach upon the 410 00:39:14.920 --> 00:39:19.440 promises. They encroach upon the leading of the Lord. We entertain them, 411 00:39:19.519 --> 00:39:22.639 we think there are own thoughts. We listen to them, we give them 412 00:39:22.679 --> 00:39:31.280 place, We struggle with them, when we should actually turn and rebuke the 413 00:39:31.400 --> 00:39:39.400 enemy and say, go leave me alone. You causing doubt, You causing 414 00:39:39.519 --> 00:39:46.599 distrust of God, distrust of the Word, You contradicting the word of God. 415 00:39:46.920 --> 00:39:51.199 Leave me alone and go. You're a lying spirit, You're unclean, 416 00:39:52.280 --> 00:39:54.840 Leave me alone, Get off of me, and get out of me. 417 00:39:55.800 --> 00:40:00.960 Out of my mind and my imagination thought, you're not of me. Did 418 00:40:01.039 --> 00:40:05.760 you know that you have the mind of Christ? This is the word. 419 00:40:05.960 --> 00:40:07.719 The Word says you have the mind of Christ. That means you have a 420 00:40:07.760 --> 00:40:13.159 sanctified mind. That means that actually your mind has become knit with Holy Spirit. 421 00:40:13.440 --> 00:40:16.840 That means that these unclean thoughts are not of you. These unclean thoughts 422 00:40:17.079 --> 00:40:22.119 are something you need to lord over and need to confront. They're not of 423 00:40:22.159 --> 00:40:24.480 you. They're of something, and they're not of the Holy Spirit. They're 424 00:40:24.519 --> 00:40:29.639 of something that needs to be conquered and put under foot. They're of something 425 00:40:29.920 --> 00:40:36.480 that needs to be confronted. They're of something that you can dismiss, and 426 00:40:36.679 --> 00:40:39.119 no longer you have permission. Right now, I'm telling you you have permission 427 00:40:39.320 --> 00:40:45.519 to no longer come into agreement with doubt, distrust any voice, any spirit, 428 00:40:45.559 --> 00:41:00.280 any argument, any contradiction that partners with doubt and distrust. Lets just 429 00:41:00.320 --> 00:41:07.599 say it together, Holy Spirit. I received the mind of Christ, the 430 00:41:07.679 --> 00:41:13.559 renewed mind. I receive the mind from above. I receive the mind of 431 00:41:13.599 --> 00:41:19.079 the anointed One. I receive the mind, the intellect, the understanding, 432 00:41:19.599 --> 00:41:25.880 the wisdom of Heaven, the wisdom of second atom, last atom, the 433 00:41:25.920 --> 00:41:31.039 one from whom I've received my nature. I receive his mind, his leading, 434 00:41:31.480 --> 00:41:39.559 his wisdom. I reject the wisdom of beneath. I reject the arguments 435 00:41:39.559 --> 00:41:46.679 of the demonic realm, of the fallen atom, the arguments against the word 436 00:41:46.800 --> 00:41:52.360 of God. I reject those. I renounce those. I want nothing to 437 00:41:52.400 --> 00:42:00.320 do with those you that are unclean, ministering to my mind, pretending even 438 00:42:00.360 --> 00:42:07.079 to be me, accusing God, contradicting the word. I command you to 439 00:42:07.119 --> 00:42:13.320 go. Leave me alone. Leave me alone. In Jesus' name, I'm 440 00:42:13.360 --> 00:42:19.920 not under you, I'm not of you. I have no partnership with you. 441 00:42:19.920 --> 00:42:23.960 You are put to death through the cross and have no longer access to 442 00:42:24.000 --> 00:42:29.639 me. I have no need to pay attention to you, no obligation to 443 00:42:29.719 --> 00:42:37.360 listen to you. In Jesus' name, I've been liberated and made a new 444 00:42:37.440 --> 00:42:44.719 creation, a new creation with a citizenship from heaven. And I received that 445 00:42:44.840 --> 00:42:58.360 citizenship and that higher creative power in Jesus' name. And everybody said, now, 446 00:42:58.360 --> 00:43:00.360 listen, listen, listen. I want the prayer team to come as 447 00:43:00.400 --> 00:43:05.119 we close this morning, as we were even as we were praying, that 448 00:43:05.320 --> 00:43:10.119 if you felt like, oh yeah, that's wow, That's what I've been 449 00:43:10.119 --> 00:43:15.159 dealing with. I mean, if you felt maybe even you had arguments happening 450 00:43:15.199 --> 00:43:21.360 while we were praying, Maybe you had arguments happening. Come on, I've 451 00:43:21.360 --> 00:43:24.800 had it happen. You might have had some arguments going on while we were 452 00:43:24.840 --> 00:43:29.960 praying. I want you to come this as we close. If you got 453 00:43:30.000 --> 00:43:32.519 to pick up kids, you could do that quickly, bring them back in. 454 00:43:32.639 --> 00:43:36.679 But we don't need to rush out of here. There's nothing better than 455 00:43:36.719 --> 00:43:40.320 heaven on earth right here. And so if something was going on, you're 456 00:43:40.360 --> 00:43:44.039 just like, I need to process that a little bit deeper. I need 457 00:43:44.039 --> 00:43:49.719 some freedom at a deeper level. I think that something could be conquered right 458 00:43:49.719 --> 00:43:52.639 now. I don't need to leave here without a with a half conquer. 459 00:43:52.920 --> 00:43:55.719 I think I want to leave with a full conquer. Then just come quickly, 460 00:43:55.760 --> 00:44:00.000 be prayed for, be ministered to. This is the place of living 461 00:44:00.400 --> 00:44:04.320 right now. We've come to a house of liberty and a house of freedom. 462 00:44:04.360 --> 00:44:07.360 So, Holy Spirit, we lose you to bring us into liberty. 463 00:44:07.400 --> 00:44:14.599 We lose you to bring us into freedom this morning from all of this influence, 464 00:44:15.360 --> 00:44:20.679 this hindering the creativity of heaven within. In Jesus' name, and again 465 00:44:20.800 --> 00:44:23.119 everybody said, God, bless your church. Let's worship
