1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.840
Welcome to Supernatural Saturday.

2
00:00:04.840 --> 00:00:06.220
There's lots of new faces.

3
00:00:06.220 --> 00:00:10.800
We have lots of new people that have joined the movement during our anniversary month.

4
00:00:10.800 --> 00:00:12.760
And so welcome to all of you.

5
00:00:12.760 --> 00:00:20.360
I am so excited to have you in the program, in the movement, in the anointing, in the

6
00:00:20.360 --> 00:00:27.240
grace that God has covered this movement with, and you are going to have massive breakthrough.

7
00:00:27.240 --> 00:00:31.100
Supernatural Saturday is the one day a week where we all gather together, regardless of

8
00:00:31.100 --> 00:00:35.320
what phase you're in in this program, and we look to heaven.

9
00:00:35.320 --> 00:00:38.240
What is the current prophetic reality?

10
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:39.240
God talked to us.

11
00:00:39.240 --> 00:00:40.240
What are you doing?

12
00:00:40.240 --> 00:00:45.260
What are you doing behind the scenes in that unseen realm that we can't always see?

13
00:00:45.260 --> 00:00:46.260
Some of you are seers.

14
00:00:46.260 --> 00:00:49.660
Some of you visit there a lot more often than the rest of us.

15
00:00:49.660 --> 00:00:50.660
That's awesome.

16
00:00:50.660 --> 00:00:51.660
You see the angels.

17
00:00:51.660 --> 00:00:52.660
You see the stuff.

18
00:00:52.660 --> 00:00:54.360
I have friends like that.

19
00:00:54.480 --> 00:00:58.260
I, unfortunately, have only seen angels a couple of times in my life, and it was more

20
00:00:58.260 --> 00:01:05.160
of a vision and less of an actual tangible situation.

21
00:01:05.160 --> 00:01:07.400
But some people visit there a lot.

22
00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:11.460
But in that realm, in that unseen realm that's all around us, friends, it's not up in the

23
00:01:11.460 --> 00:01:13.500
sky somewhere off in the distance.

24
00:01:13.500 --> 00:01:19.000
It's right here, right now, all around us, the second and third heavens.

25
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:23.380
We just can't see it, but it can see us.

26
00:01:23.400 --> 00:01:25.100
It's important that you understand that.

27
00:01:25.100 --> 00:01:30.880
We can't see it unless you're a person who's gifted with that seeing ability, but it can

28
00:01:30.880 --> 00:01:32.500
see us.

29
00:01:32.500 --> 00:01:36.180
So all your loved ones that have gone on, the people that you miss, the people that

30
00:01:36.180 --> 00:01:39.280
have died in Christ, they can see you.

31
00:01:39.280 --> 00:01:40.280
They can see you.

32
00:01:40.280 --> 00:01:43.200
That might make you uncomfortable when you're doing things that maybe you don't want people

33
00:01:43.200 --> 00:01:44.200
seeing you.

34
00:01:44.200 --> 00:01:47.520
Now, I don't know how often they can see us, and I don't know in what context they can

35
00:01:47.520 --> 00:01:48.520
see us.

36
00:01:48.620 --> 00:01:53.180
They're removed from the idea of what life on earth is kind of about.

37
00:01:53.180 --> 00:02:00.100
So it doesn't hit the same way when you're like, let's say, taking a shower or going

38
00:02:00.100 --> 00:02:01.100
to the bathroom.

39
00:02:01.100 --> 00:02:02.780
So let's not worry about that.

40
00:02:02.780 --> 00:02:04.300
The details are not important.

41
00:02:04.300 --> 00:02:08.100
What's important is, is that we are surrounded by a family of faith.

42
00:02:08.100 --> 00:02:11.660
What's important is, is that there's a great cloud of witnesses cheering us on.

43
00:02:11.660 --> 00:02:17.900
What's important is that we are not even a heartbeat away from divine intervention.

44
00:02:17.900 --> 00:02:18.900
God is with us.

45
00:02:18.900 --> 00:02:19.900
We are in him.

46
00:02:19.900 --> 00:02:22.920
In him, we move and we live and we have our being.

47
00:02:22.920 --> 00:02:24.520
Very important that we understand that.

48
00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:28.200
So what is the reality of that other space?

49
00:02:28.200 --> 00:02:32.080
That is what Supernatural Saturday is all about, because we don't want to plug into

50
00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:35.160
just what our five senses can give us on earth.

51
00:02:35.160 --> 00:02:40.340
We want to plug into that sixth sense of what is God doing?

52
00:02:40.340 --> 00:02:41.880
What does he want us to know today?

53
00:02:41.880 --> 00:02:45.920
And that's what Supernatural Saturday was born out of, and it continues to deliver a

54
00:02:45.940 --> 00:02:53.780
lot of supernatural power for us to walk in God's reality instead of our own.

55
00:02:53.780 --> 00:02:55.380
And so today we have a lot of different thoughts.

56
00:02:55.380 --> 00:02:59.540
It's going to be a grab bag of thoughts this morning, because, you know, when I wake up

57
00:02:59.540 --> 00:03:01.620
in the morning, I think I know what I want to do.

58
00:03:01.620 --> 00:03:05.660
I think I know what God wants to say, and then he'll just throw in whatever he wants.

59
00:03:05.660 --> 00:03:06.660
So let's look to heaven.

60
00:03:06.660 --> 00:03:12.540
Father God, we're so thankful that we come together, we come together on this first day

61
00:03:12.540 --> 00:03:13.540
of November.

62
00:03:14.540 --> 00:03:20.140
Wow, it's a new season, it's a new month, we're in a new year, 5786.

63
00:03:20.140 --> 00:03:22.320
We thank you for this year, Lord.

64
00:03:22.320 --> 00:03:27.860
We thank you God that we're headed into another new year celebration just in a couple months.

65
00:03:27.860 --> 00:03:29.660
We're headed into the holiday seasons.

66
00:03:29.660 --> 00:03:31.820
We're headed into family season.

67
00:03:31.820 --> 00:03:34.740
We're headed into winter season for a lot of us.

68
00:03:34.740 --> 00:03:38.940
Father, we just thank you that you are good and that you know our times and seasons and

69
00:03:39.100 --> 00:03:43.900
that in every season you desire to bless us, in every season you desire to promote us,

70
00:03:43.900 --> 00:03:47.460
in every season you desire to lead us and guide us.

71
00:03:47.460 --> 00:03:53.100
And so this morning, as we press in and look to you together in unity, we ask God that

72
00:03:53.100 --> 00:03:59.340
you would not just be in our midst, but that you would give us downloads and revelations,

73
00:03:59.340 --> 00:04:03.940
encouragement, whatever it is that each and every one of your sons and daughters need

74
00:04:03.940 --> 00:04:04.940
this morning.

75
00:04:04.940 --> 00:04:07.700
Let them receive it and believe it in Jesus name, amen.

76
00:04:08.940 --> 00:04:15.980
All right, when I woke up this morning, the very first thing, even as I was kind of rolling

77
00:04:15.980 --> 00:04:21.899
around in the night, as us menopausal women will do, as I was rolling around in the night,

78
00:04:21.899 --> 00:04:29.980
waking up every hour or so, I kept having the idea that the smallest changes eventually

79
00:04:29.980 --> 00:04:31.620
reap the biggest benefit.

80
00:04:31.620 --> 00:04:35.160
And so I just want to release that over someone who's overwhelmed by everything that needs

81
00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:37.420
to get done.

82
00:04:37.420 --> 00:04:41.100
There's some big changes that you need to make in your life, but big changes start with

83
00:04:41.100 --> 00:04:46.660
small changes, small things that you do differently.

84
00:04:46.660 --> 00:04:50.300
If you try to eat the whole elephant, you're going to fail.

85
00:04:50.300 --> 00:04:53.580
You have to eat the elephant one bite at a time.

86
00:04:53.580 --> 00:04:58.180
And so for whoever needs to hear that and receive that this morning, instead of trying

87
00:04:58.180 --> 00:04:59.900
to figure out the whole thing.

88
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:01.680
Get it, I'm a big thinker.

89
00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:04.480
And when you're a big thinker,

90
00:05:04.480 --> 00:05:07.560
a lot of times big problems will seem insurmountable

91
00:05:07.560 --> 00:05:09.440
and then you'll just get super discouraged

92
00:05:09.440 --> 00:05:11.400
because you're trying to find a big solution

93
00:05:11.400 --> 00:05:13.280
to a big problem.

94
00:05:13.280 --> 00:05:17.120
But big problems are solved by a bunch of small solutions

95
00:05:18.160 --> 00:05:20.440
that we do faithfully.

96
00:05:20.440 --> 00:05:21.280
Amen?

97
00:05:22.760 --> 00:05:23.720
Amen.

98
00:05:23.720 --> 00:05:28.680
And so that A1C score on your last blood work

99
00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:30.240
that says you're pre-diabetic,

100
00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:36.200
it starts with just taking more steps every day,

101
00:05:36.200 --> 00:05:38.840
moving that body that God gave you because you can.

102
00:05:41.160 --> 00:05:42.720
Right?

103
00:05:42.720 --> 00:05:47.280
It starts with not buying at the grocery store

104
00:05:47.280 --> 00:05:50.040
those chips or those cookies.

105
00:05:50.040 --> 00:05:52.200
It starts with small changes.

106
00:05:52.200 --> 00:05:53.840
Okay, this time when I go to the grocery store

107
00:05:53.840 --> 00:05:55.920
and I put in my grocery order to Instacart,

108
00:05:55.920 --> 00:05:58.320
I'm just not going to order that.

109
00:05:58.360 --> 00:06:00.280
I'm not going to have it in the house.

110
00:06:01.280 --> 00:06:05.160
I don't walk, every day I don't move my body every day.

111
00:06:05.160 --> 00:06:06.320
I sit around a lot.

112
00:06:06.320 --> 00:06:08.960
I work remotely or I work at a desk job.

113
00:06:08.960 --> 00:06:10.200
I don't walk a lot.

114
00:06:10.200 --> 00:06:14.360
So at lunchtime, instead of going down to the cafeteria

115
00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:16.440
and just sitting there, I'm going to walk.

116
00:06:16.440 --> 00:06:17.800
I'm going to pack my lunch

117
00:06:17.800 --> 00:06:20.520
and I'm going to walk at lunchtime.

118
00:06:20.520 --> 00:06:24.320
It's a small change and that small change will add up

119
00:06:25.240 --> 00:06:28.400
and it will add up and it will add up and it will add up.

120
00:06:28.400 --> 00:06:31.200
My husband just started skipping a couple meals,

121
00:06:31.200 --> 00:06:34.160
fasting actually, started employing fasting

122
00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:35.600
and he lost 10 pounds.

123
00:06:36.760 --> 00:06:39.960
It's like, wow, must be nice to be a man.

124
00:06:41.440 --> 00:06:42.480
Praise the Lord.

125
00:06:44.000 --> 00:06:45.760
You ladies, if you know, you know.

126
00:06:47.160 --> 00:06:48.480
These men, they're like,

127
00:06:48.480 --> 00:06:50.520
well, I'm going to skip my snack this week.

128
00:06:50.520 --> 00:06:52.320
Oh, look, I lost 10 pounds.

129
00:06:55.120 --> 00:06:55.960
We love them.

130
00:06:55.960 --> 00:06:57.600
Bless them, Lord.

131
00:06:57.600 --> 00:06:58.440
Bless them.

132
00:06:59.440 --> 00:07:02.640
But small changes are going to yield the biggest results.

133
00:07:02.640 --> 00:07:06.120
And so I want to encourage someone with that this morning

134
00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:08.080
because I think that we get very overwhelmed

135
00:07:08.080 --> 00:07:10.080
and then what happens is we shut down

136
00:07:10.080 --> 00:07:11.360
and we don't do anything.

137
00:07:12.600 --> 00:07:14.160
So don't shut down.

138
00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:15.760
Do what you can.

139
00:07:15.760 --> 00:07:18.480
Do what you can and give it to the Lord.

140
00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:20.840
Remember, he's the loaves and fishes God.

141
00:07:20.840 --> 00:07:23.680
Do what you can, even if you think it's a little bit

142
00:07:23.680 --> 00:07:25.360
and consecrate it to the Lord.

143
00:07:25.360 --> 00:07:27.360
Say, Lord, I heard what you said.

144
00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:29.240
I need to be doing this in my life.

145
00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:31.360
So this is how I'm going to start.

146
00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:33.440
This is what I'm going to do.

147
00:07:33.440 --> 00:07:36.280
Okay, you told me I need to get rid of this debt.

148
00:07:36.280 --> 00:07:39.560
This debt seems so overwhelming to me.

149
00:07:39.560 --> 00:07:42.120
And I feel like I already don't have enough.

150
00:07:42.120 --> 00:07:46.920
So I'm going to stop buying this Starbucks coffee this week

151
00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:48.840
for the month.

152
00:07:48.840 --> 00:07:51.120
And I'm going to take that extra $30

153
00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:52.880
and I'm going to put it towards this debt.

154
00:07:52.920 --> 00:07:55.640
You guys, you might think that's ridiculous

155
00:07:55.640 --> 00:08:00.080
and it's like, oh wow, that's like, you know,

156
00:08:00.080 --> 00:08:03.000
that's like eating an elephant with a little spoon.

157
00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:04.040
Yeah, I get it.

158
00:08:04.040 --> 00:08:05.360
I understand.

159
00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:07.240
But I did the exact same thing.

160
00:08:08.200 --> 00:08:10.200
When I was a stay-at-home mom

161
00:08:10.200 --> 00:08:14.200
and my husband had a door-to-door cable sales job.

162
00:08:14.200 --> 00:08:16.000
Come on, stay with me.

163
00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:18.040
That he wasn't good at.

164
00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:18.880
I'm just being real.

165
00:08:18.880 --> 00:08:20.760
I'm just keeping it a hundred percent.

166
00:08:21.720 --> 00:08:23.880
And it was feast or famine.

167
00:08:23.880 --> 00:08:27.360
And I was trying to figure out whatever I could figure out

168
00:08:27.360 --> 00:08:31.280
to keep us with a roof over our head

169
00:08:31.280 --> 00:08:32.799
and still be a stay-at-home mom.

170
00:08:32.799 --> 00:08:33.720
So when the kids were at school,

171
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:35.280
like I was driving Uber and stuff.

172
00:08:35.280 --> 00:08:37.919
Like this is when Uber first came out back in the day.

173
00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:41.039
And I mean, just all kinds of different things.

174
00:08:41.039 --> 00:08:43.600
And I will tell you, I promise you,

175
00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:45.680
when I set my heart to believe

176
00:08:45.680 --> 00:08:48.720
that we could be completely debt-free,

177
00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:51.040
when I set my heart to believe that,

178
00:08:51.880 --> 00:08:53.880
even though it seemed impossible

179
00:08:53.880 --> 00:08:56.560
with the income that was coming in

180
00:08:56.560 --> 00:08:59.280
and all that had to go out in bills,

181
00:08:59.280 --> 00:09:01.880
it seemed impossible to be debt-free.

182
00:09:03.520 --> 00:09:06.560
When I set my heart to believe that God made a way

183
00:09:06.560 --> 00:09:08.160
and we were debt-free,

184
00:09:08.160 --> 00:09:09.680
when I set my heart to believe that

185
00:09:09.680 --> 00:09:11.280
we were debt-free within a year.

186
00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:15.640
God allowed all kinds of crazy things

187
00:09:15.640 --> 00:09:16.640
to start coming my way.

188
00:09:16.640 --> 00:09:19.040
All kinds of opportunities started happening.

189
00:09:20.640 --> 00:09:25.040
And so if being debt-free is your desire

190
00:09:25.040 --> 00:09:27.120
and the thing that God has put before you,

191
00:09:27.120 --> 00:09:28.560
like, hey, yeah, you wanna be married,

192
00:09:28.560 --> 00:09:31.000
God's like, hey, let's tackle this debt.

193
00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:33.000
Why go into marriage with all this debt?

194
00:09:34.360 --> 00:09:35.800
Not that that disqualifies you.

195
00:09:35.800 --> 00:09:37.040
Don't hear what I'm not saying.

196
00:09:37.040 --> 00:09:38.520
And not that you can't get married

197
00:09:38.520 --> 00:09:39.400
when you still have debt.

198
00:09:39.400 --> 00:09:41.320
You absolutely can.

199
00:09:41.320 --> 00:09:45.120
But why, why, why?

200
00:09:45.160 --> 00:09:46.680
Let's be out of debt.

201
00:09:46.680 --> 00:09:47.520
And so if that's something

202
00:09:47.520 --> 00:09:49.080
that God has put on your heart in this season,

203
00:09:49.080 --> 00:09:50.160
I feel like that must be

204
00:09:50.160 --> 00:09:52.720
because Holy Spirit's taking us to this topic,

205
00:09:52.720 --> 00:09:54.880
then I really want to encourage you

206
00:09:54.880 --> 00:09:57.200
to ask God for his supernatural assistance

207
00:09:57.200 --> 00:10:00.080
while you do whatever you can.

208
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:04.540
Again, give him some natural to put his super on.

209
00:10:07.620 --> 00:10:09.720
Give him some natural to put his super on.

210
00:10:10.880 --> 00:10:12.120
It can be the littlest thing.

211
00:10:12.120 --> 00:10:14.020
You could think that it's ridiculous.

212
00:10:15.780 --> 00:10:18.480
You could think, oh, how is this gonna help anything?

213
00:10:18.480 --> 00:10:20.640
This is such a small amount.

214
00:10:20.640 --> 00:10:22.360
Well, there's all kinds of stories in the Bible

215
00:10:22.360 --> 00:10:24.160
when someone just did what they could

216
00:10:24.160 --> 00:10:27.360
that was really small and God multiplied it.

217
00:10:30.220 --> 00:10:31.060
Right?

218
00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:34.840
What do you have left, lady?

219
00:10:34.840 --> 00:10:37.540
Oh, I just have this little tiny cruise of oil.

220
00:10:38.480 --> 00:10:40.440
Okay, I can work with that.

221
00:10:40.440 --> 00:10:42.140
Give God something to work with.

222
00:10:44.460 --> 00:10:46.360
Give him something to work with.

223
00:10:47.200 --> 00:10:48.040
Amen?

224
00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:51.160
All right, I hope that encourages you this morning.

225
00:10:51.160 --> 00:10:54.520
So I wanna get to today's Supernatural Saturday teaching.

226
00:10:55.440 --> 00:10:56.900
It's really powerful on my heart.

227
00:10:56.900 --> 00:10:58.480
In fact, I was shedding a few tears

228
00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:00.220
before this call started this morning

229
00:11:00.220 --> 00:11:02.320
just thinking about this.

230
00:11:02.320 --> 00:11:05.120
And I want to release over all of you

231
00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:07.560
that once again, what I said about being surrounded

232
00:11:07.560 --> 00:11:09.360
by this great cloud of witnesses,

233
00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:12.200
there's a lot of people in the cloud that you don't know.

234
00:11:14.320 --> 00:11:16.380
But I'm not talking about other people's relatives,

235
00:11:16.380 --> 00:11:18.880
other people's ancestors, I'm talking about yours.

236
00:11:20.080 --> 00:11:22.740
I want you to raise your hand if you think,

237
00:11:24.560 --> 00:11:27.960
if you think that you are a first generation Christian

238
00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:30.760
in your family, raise them up.

239
00:11:32.560 --> 00:11:34.920
I'm the only person in my family that serves the Lord.

240
00:11:34.920 --> 00:11:37.880
I'm the only person in my family that knows God.

241
00:11:37.880 --> 00:11:39.640
You could think that you're the first person

242
00:11:39.640 --> 00:11:41.440
in your family to receive Christ

243
00:11:41.440 --> 00:11:43.480
or the other people in your family are,

244
00:11:43.480 --> 00:11:45.960
yeah, they're kind of Christians, but in name only,

245
00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:47.660
they don't live like Christians.

246
00:11:49.880 --> 00:11:54.880
They don't really know God the way that you do.

247
00:11:55.880 --> 00:11:58.680
Put up your hands, put up your hands, put up your hands.

248
00:12:05.080 --> 00:12:07.280
Wow, it's not as many people as I thought.

249
00:12:07.280 --> 00:12:08.640
So a lot of you guys come from

250
00:12:08.640 --> 00:12:11.740
what you would call Christian family, which is great.

251
00:12:11.740 --> 00:12:14.360
And you know, the usual suspects in your family,

252
00:12:14.360 --> 00:12:16.360
even those of you that come from Christian families,

253
00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:19.720
you know, the people that have been alive

254
00:12:19.720 --> 00:12:20.760
during your lifetime.

255
00:12:20.760 --> 00:12:22.000
So maybe your grandparents,

256
00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:24.000
maybe even your great grandparents were alive

257
00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:26.640
for a little bit when you were a kid and you knew them.

258
00:12:26.640 --> 00:12:30.200
And possibly they were church-going folk.

259
00:12:30.200 --> 00:12:33.000
They were God-fearing folk, and that's exciting and good.

260
00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:35.600
And if you come from that kind of lineage, that's awesome.

261
00:12:35.600 --> 00:12:37.560
But there were people even before them

262
00:12:38.440 --> 00:12:39.680
that were friends of God.

263
00:12:40.840 --> 00:12:42.400
Go ahead and put your hands down.

264
00:12:42.400 --> 00:12:46.120
I wanna talk to you guys today about the fact

265
00:12:46.120 --> 00:12:48.200
that we are all here right now

266
00:12:48.200 --> 00:12:51.140
because somebody in our family line was a friend of God.

267
00:12:52.280 --> 00:12:53.380
That's why we're here.

268
00:12:54.400 --> 00:12:55.920
And yes, we're friends of God too.

269
00:12:55.920 --> 00:12:58.760
And I was singing that song by Israel Houghton today.

270
00:12:58.760 --> 00:13:01.260
I'm a friend of God, he calls me friend.

271
00:13:02.740 --> 00:13:05.620
That means more to me than anything in this world.

272
00:13:06.900 --> 00:13:08.520
More than anything in this world

273
00:13:08.520 --> 00:13:11.280
is the fact that God knows that I am his friend,

274
00:13:12.920 --> 00:13:16.600
that he can count on me in my limited capacity,

275
00:13:16.600 --> 00:13:19.480
in my human capacity, in my frailty of my form,

276
00:13:19.480 --> 00:13:20.880
which he knows so well.

277
00:13:20.880 --> 00:13:23.160
The Bible says he knows the frailty of our form.

278
00:13:23.160 --> 00:13:25.840
He made us, he knows what we're made out of.

279
00:13:25.840 --> 00:13:28.520
He understands, and Jesus is our high priest

280
00:13:28.520 --> 00:13:32.080
that understands even better what we're made out of

281
00:13:32.080 --> 00:13:34.680
because he was made out of the same stuff.

282
00:13:34.680 --> 00:13:38.840
He was here on earth, he understands the pool of the flesh.

283
00:13:38.840 --> 00:13:41.540
He understands the frailty of our form.

284
00:13:42.480 --> 00:13:44.840
And so anytime that you just get really discouraged

285
00:13:44.840 --> 00:13:49.160
because you are dealing with all kinds of temptation

286
00:13:49.160 --> 00:13:52.040
to doubt, to be in unbelief,

287
00:13:52.080 --> 00:13:54.960
temptation possibly to be in sin in some way,

288
00:13:54.960 --> 00:13:56.360
you can go to Jesus

289
00:13:56.360 --> 00:13:58.880
because he understands the pool of the flesh.

290
00:14:00.760 --> 00:14:02.320
He understands discouragement.

291
00:14:02.320 --> 00:14:04.520
He understands all of those things.

292
00:14:04.520 --> 00:14:08.260
He was fully man, fully human, and fully God,

293
00:14:09.520 --> 00:14:10.560
but without sin.

294
00:14:11.680 --> 00:14:13.040
And so it's important that we understand

295
00:14:13.040 --> 00:14:15.880
that he understands us.

296
00:14:15.880 --> 00:14:18.120
He's our high priest, he's our intercessor.

297
00:14:19.680 --> 00:14:20.520
He is.

298
00:14:22.640 --> 00:14:27.640
So we're here because somebody

299
00:14:27.920 --> 00:14:30.360
was a friend of God before us.

300
00:14:30.360 --> 00:14:32.080
And guess what?

301
00:14:32.080 --> 00:14:34.960
Our great, great, great, great, great grandchildren,

302
00:14:34.960 --> 00:14:38.880
if Jesus should tarry and not fully establish

303
00:14:38.880 --> 00:14:40.600
his kingdom on earth, on the new earth,

304
00:14:40.600 --> 00:14:45.600
then they're going to be living in the blessings

305
00:14:46.120 --> 00:14:47.800
of your relationship with God.

306
00:14:47.800 --> 00:14:49.400
I want you to get ahold of that.

307
00:14:50.400 --> 00:14:52.600
God has promised,

308
00:14:52.600 --> 00:14:54.760
see if you guys can remember the scripture,

309
00:14:54.760 --> 00:14:56.760
he has promised to visit the iniquity

310
00:14:56.760 --> 00:15:00.040
of a generation on a generation.

311
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:01.760
That's great, whatever.

312
00:15:01.760 --> 00:15:03.200
But he also has promise,

313
00:15:03.200 --> 00:15:04.600
and a lot of people are really focused

314
00:15:04.600 --> 00:15:05.840
on generational curses,

315
00:15:05.840 --> 00:15:09.920
and that's the purpose of today's Supernatural Saturday.

316
00:15:09.920 --> 00:15:12.480
Do you understand that the generational blessings of God

317
00:15:12.480 --> 00:15:15.820
are much greater than the generational cursings?

318
00:15:17.920 --> 00:15:19.320
Do you guys understand that?

319
00:15:22.280 --> 00:15:24.440
Why don't you just sit with that for a second?

320
00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:35.000
For those of you that are trying to find all the demons

321
00:15:38.800 --> 00:15:40.300
that live in your family line.

322
00:15:45.040 --> 00:15:47.800
I'm going to the scripture right now so we can read it.

323
00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:53.600
So in Exodus it says,

324
00:15:53.600 --> 00:15:56.440
but I will show love to a thousand generations

325
00:15:56.440 --> 00:15:58.960
of those who love me and keep my commandments.

326
00:16:00.560 --> 00:16:02.160
Thousand generations.

327
00:16:05.520 --> 00:16:08.500
God promises to bless generations for faithfulness.

328
00:16:10.040 --> 00:16:12.860
In fact, there's a scripture in the Bible that says that

329
00:16:12.860 --> 00:16:15.160
it will no longer be true.

330
00:16:15.160 --> 00:16:17.960
Well, it will no longer be a true saying in Israel

331
00:16:17.960 --> 00:16:20.040
that the parents have eaten sour grapes

332
00:16:20.040 --> 00:16:22.400
and the children's teeth have been set on edge.

333
00:16:24.760 --> 00:16:27.680
Every person will answer for their own wrongdoing

334
00:16:27.680 --> 00:16:29.340
is what that scripture is saying.

335
00:16:31.000 --> 00:16:33.920
But God has promised that he will bless us

336
00:16:33.920 --> 00:16:35.200
and he will multiply us

337
00:16:35.200 --> 00:16:37.240
and he will multiply our descendants.

338
00:16:37.240 --> 00:16:40.560
He will multiply and show his love to a thousand generations

339
00:16:40.560 --> 00:16:44.960
of people who love him and keep his commandments.

340
00:16:44.960 --> 00:16:46.760
Now, originally in the Old Testament,

341
00:16:46.760 --> 00:16:49.300
it said that he would visit the iniquity of the fathers

342
00:16:49.300 --> 00:16:50.140
on the children,

343
00:16:50.140 --> 00:16:51.320
just to the third or fourth generation

344
00:16:51.320 --> 00:16:52.940
of those that hate him,

345
00:16:52.940 --> 00:16:55.360
but that he would bless to a thousand generations,

346
00:16:55.360 --> 00:16:56.500
those that love him.

347
00:16:57.620 --> 00:16:58.460
And of course we know

348
00:16:58.460 --> 00:17:00.220
because of the finished work of the cross

349
00:17:00.220 --> 00:17:02.360
that all of those curses are broken.

350
00:17:02.360 --> 00:17:05.859
We don't have to walk in what other people walked in.

351
00:17:05.859 --> 00:17:08.300
If we don't want to, when it comes to sin and iniquity,

352
00:17:08.300 --> 00:17:09.780
we don't have to.

353
00:17:09.780 --> 00:17:12.220
There are some people who just continue in the same way

354
00:17:12.220 --> 00:17:15.940
as their people, their fathers, so to speak.

355
00:17:16.780 --> 00:17:18.300
It doesn't have to be your father, it could be your mother,

356
00:17:18.300 --> 00:17:21.040
but you know, that's just a term, your fathers.

357
00:17:21.960 --> 00:17:24.660
But you don't have to because the prison door is open.

358
00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:27.800
The prison door is open.

359
00:17:28.660 --> 00:17:30.380
I was talking to a friend yesterday

360
00:17:30.380 --> 00:17:33.720
whose father was an alcoholic and he's passed on now.

361
00:17:34.900 --> 00:17:36.740
But she was talking to me about a moment

362
00:17:36.740 --> 00:17:38.700
when she realized that she herself

363
00:17:38.700 --> 00:17:40.200
was becoming an alcoholic.

364
00:17:41.360 --> 00:17:43.820
And she was like, no, I'm not gonna do that.

365
00:17:44.960 --> 00:17:47.680
I'm not gonna choose that.

366
00:17:47.680 --> 00:17:49.920
We have the power of choice.

367
00:17:49.920 --> 00:17:51.300
We have the power to choose.

368
00:17:51.300 --> 00:17:53.340
If we are gonna walk in the ways of Christ

369
00:17:53.340 --> 00:17:54.980
or we're gonna walk in the ways

370
00:17:54.980 --> 00:17:58.500
of the fallen ancestry of our family.

371
00:17:58.500 --> 00:18:00.440
But I wanna talk about that today

372
00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:02.900
because there's a lot of talk about generational curses,

373
00:18:02.900 --> 00:18:04.460
but there's really not a lot of talk

374
00:18:04.460 --> 00:18:06.020
about generational blessings.

375
00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:09.940
And before you disqualify yourself from this talk today,

376
00:18:09.940 --> 00:18:12.140
I just wanna let you know that in that cloud of witnesses,

377
00:18:12.140 --> 00:18:14.260
there's all kinds of people that you do not know

378
00:18:14.260 --> 00:18:15.940
from your family.

379
00:18:15.940 --> 00:18:16.940
You do not know them.

380
00:18:16.940 --> 00:18:19.100
You have never heard their name.

381
00:18:19.100 --> 00:18:20.540
You don't know who they are.

382
00:18:21.580 --> 00:18:23.460
You're part of that lineage and that line,

383
00:18:23.460 --> 00:18:26.460
just like you have been grafted into the lineage of Christ.

384
00:18:27.360 --> 00:18:29.700
You're also part of the blessings of Christ,

385
00:18:29.700 --> 00:18:31.800
that lineage, that legacy.

386
00:18:31.800 --> 00:18:35.100
As Christians, we're part of a new bloodline,

387
00:18:35.100 --> 00:18:37.100
but I wanna talk about your earthly bloodline.

388
00:18:37.100 --> 00:18:40.100
You might think that it's full of liars, cheaters,

389
00:18:40.100 --> 00:18:42.700
users, abusers, losers, that's good.

390
00:18:42.700 --> 00:18:43.580
I understand.

391
00:18:43.580 --> 00:18:45.580
And those might be the people that you know about,

392
00:18:45.580 --> 00:18:47.820
but you don't know about the people that came before them.

393
00:18:47.820 --> 00:18:51.180
And I want to submit to you today

394
00:18:51.180 --> 00:18:56.180
that you are here where you are reaching for God

395
00:18:56.980 --> 00:18:59.840
because someone in your lineage was a friend of God.

396
00:19:02.740 --> 00:19:07.740
And I want you to step into the full inheritance

397
00:19:07.740 --> 00:19:10.700
of whoever those people or person was,

398
00:19:10.700 --> 00:19:12.300
the covenant fulfillment.

399
00:19:12.300 --> 00:19:15.120
I believe that we're not only generational curse breakers,

400
00:19:15.120 --> 00:19:17.540
but we are covenant fulfillment partners.

401
00:19:17.540 --> 00:19:18.600
Do you believe that?

402
00:19:18.600 --> 00:19:19.440
I believe that.

403
00:19:19.440 --> 00:19:20.260
And I don't know about you,

404
00:19:20.260 --> 00:19:22.740
but I wanna walk in all of the blessings

405
00:19:22.740 --> 00:19:24.940
of the people that prayed and interceded

406
00:19:24.940 --> 00:19:26.940
and trusted God that came before me,

407
00:19:26.940 --> 00:19:29.260
even if I never know their name till heaven.

408
00:19:31.020 --> 00:19:32.300
We're not accidents, friends.

409
00:19:32.300 --> 00:19:33.320
We're not random.

410
00:19:34.900 --> 00:19:37.780
We're not just the total of our parents' DNA,

411
00:19:37.780 --> 00:19:39.280
the result of circumstances.

412
00:19:39.280 --> 00:19:41.660
A lot of you were told that you were oopsie daisies,

413
00:19:41.660 --> 00:19:44.320
that you were not meant to be here.

414
00:19:44.320 --> 00:19:46.300
While your parents may not have been expecting you,

415
00:19:46.300 --> 00:19:48.100
but God always was expecting you.

416
00:19:48.100 --> 00:19:50.700
He knew you before the foundation of the earth.

417
00:19:50.700 --> 00:19:53.420
And you are the continuation of a covenant.

418
00:19:53.420 --> 00:19:56.060
I want you to get that inside of your heart this morning.

419
00:19:56.060 --> 00:19:58.020
You are the continuation of a covenant.

420
00:19:58.020 --> 00:19:59.980
I want you to speak that out loud.

421
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:04.560
I am the continuation of a covenant.

422
00:20:04.560 --> 00:20:10.080
I am, whether I'm the continuation of the Abrahamic covenant where God has promised

423
00:20:10.080 --> 00:20:14.040
the descendants, because remember, we are grafted in to Israel.

424
00:20:14.040 --> 00:20:20.880
We are the wild branch that has been grafted in, all of us that are Gentiles and not Jews.

425
00:20:20.880 --> 00:20:26.040
But we are a living extension of the promises that God has made to people that have come

426
00:20:26.040 --> 00:20:28.680
before us.

427
00:20:28.680 --> 00:20:32.640
And the people that come after you, they are going to be the living extension of the promises

428
00:20:32.640 --> 00:20:34.360
that God has made to you.

429
00:20:34.360 --> 00:20:38.480
Some of the promises you're going to fulfill on this earth, but can I tell you that some

430
00:20:38.480 --> 00:20:41.520
of the promises that you're going to fulfill on this earth are not even the ones that God

431
00:20:41.520 --> 00:20:42.520
has promised you.

432
00:20:42.520 --> 00:20:46.000
They're the ones that God promised someone who came before you.

433
00:20:46.000 --> 00:20:51.960
For whatever reason, it didn't happen in their lifetime.

434
00:20:51.960 --> 00:20:56.160
It doesn't matter.

435
00:20:56.160 --> 00:21:00.400
You are going to be the fulfillment of that.

436
00:21:00.400 --> 00:21:03.680
Someone in your bloodline said yes to God.

437
00:21:03.680 --> 00:21:05.160
You might know who you think it is.

438
00:21:05.160 --> 00:21:06.400
It could be a praying grandmother.

439
00:21:06.400 --> 00:21:08.840
I had a praying grandmother.

440
00:21:08.840 --> 00:21:10.480
Now my grandmother wasn't perfect.

441
00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:12.440
I just want to make sure that I preface that.

442
00:21:12.440 --> 00:21:19.320
She just passed away a couple years ago, almost 91 years old, lived a nice full life, passed

443
00:21:19.320 --> 00:21:24.120
away pretty much of natural causes.

444
00:21:24.120 --> 00:21:28.880
And she was an intercessor and she came to know Christ in her forties.

445
00:21:28.880 --> 00:21:33.000
And so for at least 50 of those 90 years, she was a praying woman.

446
00:21:33.000 --> 00:21:37.400
Now she wasn't necessarily a nice woman all the time.

447
00:21:37.400 --> 00:21:41.400
And in the first 40 years before she knew Jesus, she had made a lot of mistakes with

448
00:21:41.400 --> 00:21:45.040
her kids, her six children.

449
00:21:45.040 --> 00:21:47.240
My mother was one of those children.

450
00:21:47.240 --> 00:21:51.600
And that left a lasting mark on those kids.

451
00:21:51.600 --> 00:21:53.120
Most of them are actually not alive.

452
00:21:53.120 --> 00:21:55.880
A lot of them passed away before she passed away.

453
00:21:55.880 --> 00:21:59.000
We never want to outlive our children.

454
00:21:59.000 --> 00:22:01.380
Amen.

455
00:22:01.380 --> 00:22:02.640
We don't.

456
00:22:02.640 --> 00:22:07.440
And so when you think of the person right now that you know was a Christian and they

457
00:22:07.440 --> 00:22:12.440
were a praying person, I don't want you to disqualify them from being a friend of God

458
00:22:12.440 --> 00:22:14.640
simply because they weren't perfect.

459
00:22:14.640 --> 00:22:15.640
Look at the Bible.

460
00:22:15.640 --> 00:22:16.920
Look at all the characters there.

461
00:22:16.920 --> 00:22:19.120
Not perfect people, friends.

462
00:22:19.160 --> 00:22:23.720
That is not a qualification to be a friend of God is to be a perfect person.

463
00:22:23.720 --> 00:22:25.200
So it may be your grandmother.

464
00:22:25.200 --> 00:22:30.920
It could be an aunt or uncle, a great grandma or grandpa, someone who faithfully served

465
00:22:30.920 --> 00:22:31.920
the Lord.

466
00:22:31.920 --> 00:22:32.920
Maybe they went to church.

467
00:22:32.920 --> 00:22:38.400
Perhaps they didn't have the revelation that you have about the kingdom of God.

468
00:22:38.400 --> 00:22:43.200
They were just someone who was just a faithful Catholic or a faithful Methodist or Lutheran

469
00:22:43.200 --> 00:22:46.040
or whatever their denomination was.

470
00:22:46.040 --> 00:22:48.920
And they, they walked in all the light that they knew.

471
00:22:48.920 --> 00:22:52.800
It doesn't matter.

472
00:22:52.800 --> 00:22:59.440
It doesn't because I believe that all of us are here today because somebody in our family

473
00:22:59.440 --> 00:23:02.880
was a friend of God.

474
00:23:02.880 --> 00:23:04.480
We are, we are marked.

475
00:23:04.480 --> 00:23:05.560
We are marked people.

476
00:23:05.560 --> 00:23:10.160
You were marked by the time that you were in your mother's womb, you were already marked.

477
00:23:10.160 --> 00:23:11.640
I just met a homeless guy the other day.

478
00:23:11.640 --> 00:23:13.920
Some of you heard me talking about him.

479
00:23:13.920 --> 00:23:16.400
God told me his name before he told me his name.

480
00:23:16.400 --> 00:23:18.280
I said, God, what is this man's name?

481
00:23:18.280 --> 00:23:19.280
I said, I feel something.

482
00:23:19.280 --> 00:23:20.280
Yes.

483
00:23:20.280 --> 00:23:21.280
I see homeless people every day.

484
00:23:21.280 --> 00:23:22.280
I live in Austin, Texas.

485
00:23:22.280 --> 00:23:26.560
It's warm here and homeless people live here specifically because it doesn't really have

486
00:23:26.560 --> 00:23:30.920
a, you know, a cold, a cold season.

487
00:23:30.920 --> 00:23:35.680
Even in the winter time, it's pretty mild outside.

488
00:23:35.680 --> 00:23:40.760
So we have a huge homeless and camper population, transient homeless population, and it really

489
00:23:40.760 --> 00:23:42.160
affects me.

490
00:23:42.160 --> 00:23:49.760
I do feel like God has given me a burden for homeless people and also, um, a mandate on

491
00:23:49.760 --> 00:23:52.040
my life to do something about it.

492
00:23:52.040 --> 00:23:54.760
Maybe not for everyone, but for someone.

493
00:23:54.760 --> 00:23:59.960
And I've worked with the homeless for years and years back in my first social work, social

494
00:23:59.960 --> 00:24:02.440
service career in my twenties.

495
00:24:02.440 --> 00:24:08.400
And this homeless guy caught my attention in a way that nobody has caught my attention

496
00:24:08.400 --> 00:24:11.560
in a long time.

497
00:24:11.560 --> 00:24:14.920
And I could tell he was marked.

498
00:24:14.920 --> 00:24:17.320
He's marked.

499
00:24:17.320 --> 00:24:18.600
And I asked the Lord, what's his name?

500
00:24:18.600 --> 00:24:19.600
And he said, his name is James.

501
00:24:19.600 --> 00:24:23.360
And when I finally got to talk to this guy, because he's at an intersection that's very

502
00:24:23.360 --> 00:24:27.840
busy and I haven't been able to really slow down enough to talk to him, just like hand

503
00:24:27.840 --> 00:24:30.520
him a few bucks out the window and just keep going.

504
00:24:30.520 --> 00:24:33.760
But when I did get a chance to talk to him, I asked him what his name was and he said,

505
00:24:33.760 --> 00:24:35.780
my name is James.

506
00:24:35.780 --> 00:24:37.920
And so he is marked by heaven.

507
00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:39.600
He is marked by heaven.

508
00:24:39.640 --> 00:24:44.560
Sometimes when I talk to him about getting help and getting an ID and getting a place

509
00:24:44.560 --> 00:24:50.920
to live inside before the weather turns, he said that he would love all those things,

510
00:24:50.920 --> 00:24:52.520
that he wants to be off the streets.

511
00:24:52.520 --> 00:24:54.280
He does not want to live on the streets.

512
00:24:54.280 --> 00:24:58.480
He is not, he is not actively addicted to any drugs.

513
00:24:58.480 --> 00:25:00.000
He's on a drug that helps.

514
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:05.140
helps you to not be on drugs, and he wants to be off the streets.

515
00:25:05.140 --> 00:25:08.560
And then he said to me, I have been praying that someone would help me.

516
00:25:08.560 --> 00:25:12.240
I've been praying that God would send someone.

517
00:25:12.240 --> 00:25:15.040
And once again, marked by God.

518
00:25:15.040 --> 00:25:16.040
Why?

519
00:25:16.040 --> 00:25:19.880
Because someone in James' bloodline said yes to God.

520
00:25:19.880 --> 00:25:22.280
That's why.

521
00:25:22.280 --> 00:25:23.280
We see it in the book.

522
00:25:23.280 --> 00:25:24.840
Let me give you some scripture foundations for this.

523
00:25:24.840 --> 00:25:28.560
We see in different scriptures, but especially in the book of Kings, I want you to go there

524
00:25:28.560 --> 00:25:29.560
and read.

525
00:25:29.560 --> 00:25:33.200
It's kind of a boring book in, you know, first and second Kings for a lot of people.

526
00:25:33.200 --> 00:25:38.400
It's just like, okay, it's just like little synopsis of different Kings and their reigns.

527
00:25:38.400 --> 00:25:43.040
But you'll notice that some of them walked in the ways of their fathers, and some of

528
00:25:43.040 --> 00:25:48.760
them walked in the ways of their father, right?

529
00:25:48.760 --> 00:25:50.860
Their father, their father in heaven.

530
00:25:50.860 --> 00:25:53.120
Some of them walked in the ways of their fathers.

531
00:25:53.120 --> 00:25:55.280
Their father before them was a wicked king.

532
00:25:55.280 --> 00:25:57.160
You know, he went away from God's ways.

533
00:25:57.160 --> 00:26:00.200
He built altars to false gods, all the things.

534
00:26:00.200 --> 00:26:04.240
And then you'll see that they'll, they'll raise up a righteous king.

535
00:26:04.240 --> 00:26:05.920
You see that?

536
00:26:05.920 --> 00:26:11.040
But you also see terminology where God says, because of this servant of mine, because of

537
00:26:11.040 --> 00:26:14.360
this friend of mine, I will have mercy on these people.

538
00:26:14.360 --> 00:26:19.800
So in second Kings 8, 19, we see nevertheless for David, for David's sake, the Lord would

539
00:26:19.800 --> 00:26:24.360
not destroy Judah for he promised him to give him a light and to his children forever.

540
00:26:24.360 --> 00:26:26.560
Do you see that?

541
00:26:26.560 --> 00:26:27.560
Wow.

542
00:26:27.560 --> 00:26:28.560
Wow.

543
00:26:28.560 --> 00:26:35.600
You guys, my brother, my brother, Jake, Jacob Daniel, that's his name, who is roaming out

544
00:26:35.600 --> 00:26:42.800
here 30 years on the streets, living in his car, you know, mentally unsound.

545
00:26:42.800 --> 00:26:47.680
He should have died many, many, many, many times.

546
00:26:47.680 --> 00:26:55.160
He's been in predicaments that like, for instance, he fell off a cliff in Colorado when we were

547
00:26:55.160 --> 00:27:01.080
in our twenties and he had already, you know, gone into, descended into mental illness.

548
00:27:01.080 --> 00:27:10.520
He was running from the aliens on drugs, messed up, and he didn't know where he was or what

549
00:27:10.520 --> 00:27:12.000
he was doing.

550
00:27:12.000 --> 00:27:13.840
He was out there to be a snowboard instructor.

551
00:27:13.840 --> 00:27:17.720
So he understands the mountains and all the things, but he was so out of his mind in that

552
00:27:17.720 --> 00:27:22.240
moment that he was just running, running, running, not paying attention that he ran,

553
00:27:22.240 --> 00:27:30.800
he literally ran off the side of a mountain and he should have plummeted to his death.

554
00:27:30.800 --> 00:27:40.000
He was 23 years old, but as he was falling to his death, he said to me, he told me this

555
00:27:40.000 --> 00:27:41.360
himself.

556
00:27:41.360 --> 00:27:48.480
He said, Jackie, a song popped in my head that mom used to sing to us when we were little.

557
00:27:48.480 --> 00:27:54.720
And I just started singing it and I got caught on a tree root coming out of the side of the

558
00:27:54.720 --> 00:27:57.080
mountain.

559
00:27:57.080 --> 00:28:04.720
He got stuck on the side of the mountain until he could be rescued.

560
00:28:04.720 --> 00:28:11.400
And that song was, I am persuaded to believe that nothing could ever separate me from that

561
00:28:11.400 --> 00:28:14.280
wonderful love of God.

562
00:28:14.280 --> 00:28:32.600
And you will recognize that as Romans 8, won't you?

563
00:28:32.600 --> 00:28:34.680
You will recognize that as scripture, but you know what?

564
00:28:34.680 --> 00:28:38.480
When we were kids, we just tried to sing that as fast as we possibly could to see who could

565
00:28:38.480 --> 00:28:39.480
sing it faster.

566
00:28:39.480 --> 00:28:45.880
And none of us, I don't even think my precious mom knew that it was scripture.

567
00:28:45.880 --> 00:28:52.120
It was just a song that she was taught when her mom became a Christian, when my mom was

568
00:28:52.120 --> 00:28:53.120
a teenager.

569
00:28:53.120 --> 00:28:57.920
My mom was already a teenager, already leaving the house when her family became Christians.

570
00:28:57.920 --> 00:29:08.080
Her mom and dad who had been fighting, brawling drunks now had found religion and she was

571
00:29:08.080 --> 00:29:12.600
already on her way out because of all the abuse and craziness of that household before

572
00:29:12.600 --> 00:29:16.600
they had found quote unquote Jesus.

573
00:29:16.600 --> 00:29:20.520
And that was just a song that she had heard and she thought it was fun and she taught

574
00:29:20.520 --> 00:29:21.520
it to us.

575
00:29:21.520 --> 00:29:34.240
But my brother was literally professing Romans 8 as he was falling down that mountain and

576
00:29:34.240 --> 00:29:37.840
he was caught by a tree branch and he is alive still.

577
00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:41.400
I would love to tell you that he's in his right mind and in a house and has a family.

578
00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:43.520
And I can't tell you that it's not true.

579
00:29:43.520 --> 00:29:47.480
He does have twin children that were raised in debauchery because they were raised in

580
00:29:47.480 --> 00:29:49.400
a tent by a homeless person.

581
00:29:49.400 --> 00:29:56.960
But that also is an amazing opportunity for the Lord because those children are marked.

582
00:29:56.960 --> 00:29:59.000
I just heard from my niece last night.

583
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:02.520
She said, and Jackie, are you up?

584
00:30:02.520 --> 00:30:03.760
And I said, yes, I'm up.

585
00:30:03.760 --> 00:30:04.760
What's going on?

586
00:30:04.760 --> 00:30:06.600
She's like, I'm having anxiety.

587
00:30:06.600 --> 00:30:07.960
I need help.

588
00:30:07.960 --> 00:30:10.440
She knows where to reach out to.

589
00:30:10.440 --> 00:30:12.600
She knows who to reach out to.

590
00:30:12.600 --> 00:30:17.680
I heard from my nephew yesterday, they're both in college right now because my little

591
00:30:17.680 --> 00:30:20.480
brother made sure that they made it there.

592
00:30:20.480 --> 00:30:23.240
Not my brother that I'm talking about, my younger brother.

593
00:30:23.240 --> 00:30:29.600
And so the bottom line is, is that we all are marked by heaven.

594
00:30:29.600 --> 00:30:30.760
There's so many things.

595
00:30:30.760 --> 00:30:36.220
I know that you think a lot of bad things have made it through the hedge of protection,

596
00:30:36.220 --> 00:30:39.800
but you have no idea what was trying to come through.

597
00:30:39.800 --> 00:30:41.720
You really don't.

598
00:30:41.720 --> 00:30:43.240
Let's keep reading these scriptures.

599
00:30:43.240 --> 00:30:44.680
First Kings 15, four and five.

600
00:30:44.680 --> 00:30:48.480
But for David's sake, the Lord, his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem because David did

601
00:30:48.480 --> 00:30:50.840
what was right in the sight and the eyes of the Lord.

602
00:30:50.840 --> 00:30:55.280
You know that when you do the right thing, I know you think that it only benefits you,

603
00:30:55.280 --> 00:30:56.280
but it doesn't.

604
00:30:56.280 --> 00:31:01.080
It's all the people that you're connected to and all the people coming after you.

605
00:31:01.080 --> 00:31:05.600
I know that there's this selfish me generation out there that thinks, Hey, you know what?

606
00:31:05.600 --> 00:31:06.600
Look away.

607
00:31:06.600 --> 00:31:07.600
It's my life.

608
00:31:07.600 --> 00:31:08.720
I'll do whatever I want with my life.

609
00:31:08.720 --> 00:31:09.800
It doesn't concern you.

610
00:31:09.800 --> 00:31:11.240
It doesn't affect you.

611
00:31:11.240 --> 00:31:14.800
But friends, our lives affect everybody.

612
00:31:14.800 --> 00:31:16.160
They don't just affect us.

613
00:31:16.160 --> 00:31:17.960
They affect everybody.

614
00:31:17.960 --> 00:31:18.960
They do.

615
00:31:18.960 --> 00:31:19.960
They affect society.

616
00:31:19.960 --> 00:31:20.960
They affect our community.

617
00:31:20.960 --> 00:31:22.960
They affect our families, past, present, future.

618
00:31:23.440 --> 00:31:26.640
It's a ripple effect that you cannot stop.

619
00:31:26.640 --> 00:31:30.560
Whether you want to be connected or not, you are connected.

620
00:31:30.560 --> 00:31:32.600
You are connected.

621
00:31:32.600 --> 00:31:37.920
Second Kings 22 and 23, we see Josiah, David's descendant.

622
00:31:37.920 --> 00:31:38.920
What did he do?

623
00:31:38.920 --> 00:31:43.380
He rediscovered the book of the law and he tore down the idols.

624
00:31:43.380 --> 00:31:44.380
He tore down the idols.

625
00:31:44.380 --> 00:31:48.360
And some of you are these people, you're the Josiahs of your lineage.

626
00:31:48.360 --> 00:31:53.560
No one before you that you know of walked in the ways of the Lord.

627
00:31:53.560 --> 00:31:57.360
No one that you knew during your lifetime and your family walked in the ways of the

628
00:31:57.360 --> 00:31:58.360
Lord.

629
00:31:58.360 --> 00:31:59.360
They didn't.

630
00:31:59.360 --> 00:32:04.040
They didn't have to be bad people maybe, but they weren't necessarily godly people.

631
00:32:04.040 --> 00:32:11.400
And so you don't have any remembrance of anyone telling you about God, talking about the things

632
00:32:11.400 --> 00:32:13.680
of the Lord, talking about the kingdom of heaven.

633
00:32:13.680 --> 00:32:17.760
You don't have any remembrance of ever being taken to church, anything like that, nothing

634
00:32:17.760 --> 00:32:19.120
at all, zero.

635
00:32:19.120 --> 00:32:20.880
This is Josiah.

636
00:32:20.880 --> 00:32:26.720
Holy Spirit literally led Josiah to rediscover the Torah, to rediscover the books of the

637
00:32:26.720 --> 00:32:32.160
law, rediscover who he is basically.

638
00:32:32.160 --> 00:32:33.880
And what did he do with that information?

639
00:32:33.880 --> 00:32:39.040
He tore down the idols that the people before him had built, his fathers and his grandfathers,

640
00:32:39.040 --> 00:32:41.000
the Kings that had come before him.

641
00:32:41.000 --> 00:32:47.080
And he walked in the ways of David, someone he never knew.

642
00:32:47.080 --> 00:32:48.640
He walked in the ways of David.

643
00:32:48.640 --> 00:32:52.960
And some of you are the Josiahs of your family line.

644
00:32:52.960 --> 00:32:57.160
You've decided to follow the Lord, even though no one else has.

645
00:32:57.160 --> 00:33:00.600
You've decided to restore your family lineage and true worship.

646
00:33:00.600 --> 00:33:01.600
And that's amazing.

647
00:33:01.600 --> 00:33:06.720
James 2, 23, Abraham believed God and it was credited to him as righteousness.

648
00:33:06.720 --> 00:33:09.600
And he was called the friend of God.

649
00:33:09.600 --> 00:33:13.080
Isaiah 61, 4, they shall build up the ancient ruins.

650
00:33:13.080 --> 00:33:16.320
This is all of us friends as descendants of Jesus.

651
00:33:16.320 --> 00:33:18.600
We will build up the ancient ruins.

652
00:33:18.600 --> 00:33:21.180
We shall raise up the former devastations.

653
00:33:21.180 --> 00:33:27.040
We shall repair the ruined cities and the devastations of many generations.

654
00:33:27.040 --> 00:33:29.640
We have called to be these people.

655
00:33:29.640 --> 00:33:33.040
Jesus said, the spirit of the Lord is upon me.

656
00:33:33.040 --> 00:33:37.560
He sat down in the place that only the Messiah was supposed to sit in the temple.

657
00:33:37.560 --> 00:33:39.000
You guys know that Jesus did this.

658
00:33:39.000 --> 00:33:41.160
You understand what he did?

659
00:33:41.160 --> 00:33:48.680
He came to the temple where the Jews had been doing their Jew thing for a long time.

660
00:33:48.680 --> 00:33:55.520
And there was a seat, a place of honor that was supposed to only be occupied by the Messiah

661
00:33:55.520 --> 00:33:57.360
when he came.

662
00:33:57.360 --> 00:33:58.600
They were waiting for Meshuach.

663
00:33:58.600 --> 00:34:00.880
They were waiting for Messiah.

664
00:34:00.880 --> 00:34:06.280
And no one had ever sat in that seat because hello, the Messiah hadn't come yet.

665
00:34:06.280 --> 00:34:09.320
But he came into the temple.

666
00:34:09.320 --> 00:34:12.239
He opened the ancient writing.

667
00:34:12.239 --> 00:34:16.880
He quoted Isaiah, specifically Isaiah 61.

668
00:34:16.880 --> 00:34:19.719
And then he sat down in the seat for the Messiah.

669
00:34:19.719 --> 00:34:21.960
Whoa, now you know why they killed him.

670
00:34:21.960 --> 00:34:22.960
Now you know.

671
00:34:22.960 --> 00:34:25.719
If you didn't know, now you know.

672
00:34:25.719 --> 00:34:27.320
That was bold, you guys.

673
00:34:27.320 --> 00:34:29.360
That's bold.

674
00:34:29.360 --> 00:34:31.360
That's my King Jesus.

675
00:34:31.360 --> 00:34:33.800
That's my King Jesus.

676
00:34:33.800 --> 00:34:35.159
Woo.

677
00:34:35.159 --> 00:34:37.239
Come on.

678
00:34:37.239 --> 00:34:41.760
Come on.

679
00:34:41.760 --> 00:34:43.800
Sat down.

680
00:34:43.800 --> 00:34:45.560
Said this is me that you've been waiting for.

681
00:34:45.560 --> 00:34:46.560
Here I am.

682
00:34:46.560 --> 00:34:53.600
And friends, he opened, he opened the gate for all of us coming after him to say, hey,

683
00:34:53.600 --> 00:34:55.960
we're restorers of the breach.

684
00:34:55.960 --> 00:34:56.960
We're the repairers of the breach.

685
00:34:56.960 --> 00:34:58.520
We're the restorers of paths to dwell in.

686
00:34:58.520 --> 00:35:00.040
We're going to build the ancient room.

687
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:04.840
Not just of our families, but of the family of God.

688
00:35:04.840 --> 00:35:06.640
We are going to rebuild the ancient ruins.

689
00:35:06.640 --> 00:35:08.160
That's us.

690
00:35:08.160 --> 00:35:09.360
That's Isaiah 61.

691
00:35:09.360 --> 00:35:10.800
That's you.

692
00:35:10.800 --> 00:35:12.920
Deuteronomy 6, 10 through 12.

693
00:35:12.920 --> 00:35:15.800
When the Lord your God brings you into the land

694
00:35:15.800 --> 00:35:18.240
with great and good cities that you did not build

695
00:35:18.240 --> 00:35:21.280
and houses full of good things that you did not fill

696
00:35:21.280 --> 00:35:24.400
and vineyards and olive trees that you did not plant.

697
00:35:24.400 --> 00:35:25.540
I just release that over you.

698
00:35:25.540 --> 00:35:26.840
I believe that we're gonna live in houses

699
00:35:26.840 --> 00:35:28.040
that we did not build

700
00:35:28.040 --> 00:35:31.000
and we are going to enjoy the fruit of labor

701
00:35:31.000 --> 00:35:32.760
that we did not do

702
00:35:32.760 --> 00:35:35.360
because we are the fulfillment generation.

703
00:35:35.360 --> 00:35:37.960
We are a fulfillment generation, friends.

704
00:35:37.960 --> 00:35:39.440
And the seeds that we have planted

705
00:35:39.440 --> 00:35:40.880
are for a future generation

706
00:35:40.880 --> 00:35:43.180
and they're going to be a fulfillment generation.

707
00:35:43.180 --> 00:35:45.480
There is no reason why people should live

708
00:35:45.480 --> 00:35:47.280
in the desolations of generations.

709
00:35:47.280 --> 00:35:49.320
Jesus has already been here.

710
00:35:49.320 --> 00:35:50.480
He has already been here.

711
00:35:50.480 --> 00:35:51.920
Messiah has come.

712
00:35:51.920 --> 00:35:54.000
He has sat in the seat of honor.

713
00:35:54.000 --> 00:35:56.360
He has hung on the cross of shame.

714
00:35:56.360 --> 00:35:58.080
He has ripped the veil in two.

715
00:35:58.080 --> 00:35:59.800
It is time, friends.

716
00:35:59.800 --> 00:36:01.500
We're not waiting for a Messiah.

717
00:36:03.560 --> 00:36:05.180
We are his descendants.

718
00:36:07.120 --> 00:36:08.360
It's our time.

719
00:36:08.360 --> 00:36:12.440
Now, I wanna talk about the power of being a friend of God.

720
00:36:12.440 --> 00:36:13.920
And if you don't see yourself like this,

721
00:36:13.920 --> 00:36:16.040
I want you to ask Holy Spirit to show you

722
00:36:16.040 --> 00:36:19.080
what inside of your little orphan heart needs to go

723
00:36:21.400 --> 00:36:22.880
because we're not just children of God.

724
00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:23.920
We are friends of God.

725
00:36:23.920 --> 00:36:25.200
And I have adult children.

726
00:36:25.200 --> 00:36:29.320
I wanna tell you that they're still my children.

727
00:36:29.320 --> 00:36:30.960
I look at them and I still see them

728
00:36:30.960 --> 00:36:32.960
as young people and babies.

729
00:36:32.960 --> 00:36:34.960
And I still see that and I love them.

730
00:36:34.960 --> 00:36:36.480
In fact, last night I got into the car

731
00:36:36.480 --> 00:36:38.880
after leaving my youngest daughter's house

732
00:36:38.880 --> 00:36:40.320
with her husband.

733
00:36:40.320 --> 00:36:41.880
I left her house and I got in the car

734
00:36:41.880 --> 00:36:44.240
and it's filled with warmth in my heart

735
00:36:44.240 --> 00:36:46.160
and joy because I love her.

736
00:36:46.160 --> 00:36:47.280
She's my little nugget.

737
00:36:47.280 --> 00:36:49.080
She's my little baby bagel.

738
00:36:49.080 --> 00:36:50.480
But she's also 24 years old

739
00:36:50.480 --> 00:36:52.420
and she's a powerful woman of God.

740
00:36:52.420 --> 00:36:54.280
You know, for those of you that she leads prayer

741
00:36:54.320 --> 00:36:57.080
on Thursdays here, you know, if you know, you know.

742
00:36:58.480 --> 00:37:00.840
But I know because I have all adult children,

743
00:37:00.840 --> 00:37:04.160
30, 28 and almost 25 years old.

744
00:37:04.160 --> 00:37:07.400
And when they grow up, they're still your kids

745
00:37:07.400 --> 00:37:09.680
but they're also your friends.

746
00:37:09.680 --> 00:37:11.080
For those of you that have adult children,

747
00:37:11.080 --> 00:37:12.680
you know what I'm talking about.

748
00:37:12.680 --> 00:37:15.320
And we are friends of God.

749
00:37:16.280 --> 00:37:18.000
We're not just his children.

750
00:37:18.000 --> 00:37:20.120
He wants us to mature into a place

751
00:37:20.120 --> 00:37:21.840
where he can share things with us.

752
00:37:21.880 --> 00:37:24.440
And we can also be his friend.

753
00:37:24.440 --> 00:37:25.760
Does God wanna be my friend?

754
00:37:25.760 --> 00:37:27.000
Yes.

755
00:37:27.000 --> 00:37:28.220
Yes, he does.

756
00:37:29.360 --> 00:37:31.460
Now let's look at the friends of God here.

757
00:37:32.840 --> 00:37:34.840
Not a title, it's kind of like a legacy

758
00:37:34.840 --> 00:37:37.040
because Abraham wasn't perfect.

759
00:37:37.040 --> 00:37:41.040
David was not perfect, but they were devoted.

760
00:37:42.040 --> 00:37:46.280
And they loved God in a way that outlived them.

761
00:37:46.280 --> 00:37:47.480
I love God that way.

762
00:37:47.480 --> 00:37:49.560
I wanna be God's friend.

763
00:37:49.560 --> 00:37:51.720
I want God to share things with me.

764
00:37:52.560 --> 00:37:53.400
There's scripture in the Bible that says,

765
00:37:53.400 --> 00:37:58.240
yeah, this is a mystery, but I share with my friends.

766
00:37:59.120 --> 00:38:00.120
Like, yeah, there's a lot of people

767
00:38:00.120 --> 00:38:01.120
that don't know this stuff,

768
00:38:01.120 --> 00:38:03.920
but you know what, I share with my friends.

769
00:38:03.920 --> 00:38:05.720
Do you want to be someone that God can share

770
00:38:05.720 --> 00:38:08.520
the secrets and mysteries of the universe with?

771
00:38:08.520 --> 00:38:09.360
I do.

772
00:38:12.240 --> 00:38:14.480
And once again, it's not about being perfect.

773
00:38:16.040 --> 00:38:18.160
Because when God finds a friend,

774
00:38:18.160 --> 00:38:20.220
first of all, God's a really good friend.

775
00:38:20.220 --> 00:38:21.680
You might've had a lot of bad friends.

776
00:38:22.520 --> 00:38:23.360
I've had a lot of bad friends.

777
00:38:23.360 --> 00:38:25.160
They weren't loyal, okay?

778
00:38:27.280 --> 00:38:29.840
But when God finds a friend, he makes a covenant.

779
00:38:31.080 --> 00:38:33.760
He makes a covenant with that friend.

780
00:38:33.760 --> 00:38:37.060
And yeah, we're all part of the covenant that Jesus made.

781
00:38:37.060 --> 00:38:39.820
And we're so thankful for Jesus.

782
00:38:42.040 --> 00:38:45.220
But I wanna be a friend that has a covenant with God.

783
00:38:48.680 --> 00:38:50.040
And guess what?

784
00:38:50.040 --> 00:38:52.820
That covenant doesn't die when you do.

785
00:38:54.640 --> 00:38:57.200
Because first of all, I wanna kind of spoiler alert,

786
00:38:57.200 --> 00:38:58.520
you're not ever gonna die.

787
00:38:59.380 --> 00:39:00.800
Now you are gonna leave this body.

788
00:39:00.800 --> 00:39:03.180
There's a chance, there's a time for you to leave this body,

789
00:39:03.180 --> 00:39:06.320
but Jesus took the keys of death and hell,

790
00:39:06.320 --> 00:39:08.760
and there is no death anymore, okay?

791
00:39:08.760 --> 00:39:09.880
So when you leave this body,

792
00:39:09.880 --> 00:39:11.440
I don't even know why we call it dying,

793
00:39:11.440 --> 00:39:12.680
because it really isn't.

794
00:39:13.920 --> 00:39:16.060
It really is just truly a transition.

795
00:39:18.440 --> 00:39:19.920
But when you leave this body,

796
00:39:20.760 --> 00:39:24.960
this earthly covenant is not going to go away,

797
00:39:24.960 --> 00:39:26.280
doesn't just disappear.

798
00:39:29.600 --> 00:39:31.320
And the people that went before you,

799
00:39:31.320 --> 00:39:33.840
their covenants with God did not disappear.

800
00:39:33.840 --> 00:39:35.360
They actually fell upon you.

801
00:39:38.360 --> 00:39:42.460
And he's gonna keep showing mercy for their sake to you.

802
00:39:44.360 --> 00:39:46.080
So that's why some of us are still standing

803
00:39:46.080 --> 00:39:48.200
even when others in our family line fell apart,

804
00:39:48.200 --> 00:39:53.200
because someone had a friendship with God, right?

805
00:39:53.320 --> 00:39:54.160
Someone did.

806
00:39:56.560 --> 00:39:57.660
It's really important.

807
00:39:58.920 --> 00:40:00.560
Really, really, really important.

808
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:01.560
Okay, so let's talk about this ripple effect.

809
00:40:01.560 --> 00:40:03.000
You guys wanna talk about it?

810
00:40:04.720 --> 00:40:05.720
Let's talk about it.

811
00:40:05.720 --> 00:40:08.560
All right, so the Bible repeatedly says things like,

812
00:40:08.560 --> 00:40:10.960
for David's sake, God did not destroy Judah.

813
00:40:10.960 --> 00:40:13.520
It says things like that all throughout the Bible.

814
00:40:13.520 --> 00:40:15.760
And even when the wicked kings rose up,

815
00:40:15.760 --> 00:40:17.920
even when idolatry filled the nation,

816
00:40:17.920 --> 00:40:20.000
God still remembered his friend David.

817
00:40:20.000 --> 00:40:20.840
He did.

818
00:40:21.840 --> 00:40:23.560
And that means something very important.

819
00:40:23.560 --> 00:40:25.560
It means that God's mercy is greater

820
00:40:25.560 --> 00:40:27.700
than people's rebellion.

821
00:40:27.700 --> 00:40:28.760
I want you to remember that.

822
00:40:28.760 --> 00:40:31.780
God's mercy is stronger than rebellion.

823
00:40:34.060 --> 00:40:35.980
You can come from the most stubborn generation

824
00:40:35.980 --> 00:40:37.900
of your family, the most stubborn generation

825
00:40:37.900 --> 00:40:39.140
of your family, you could have been born

826
00:40:39.140 --> 00:40:42.940
into that phase of your family,

827
00:40:42.940 --> 00:40:45.220
but God will still chase you down

828
00:40:45.220 --> 00:40:47.740
because of a friend that he made

829
00:40:47.740 --> 00:40:49.300
two or three generations back.

830
00:40:50.580 --> 00:40:51.680
Isn't that beautiful?

831
00:40:54.340 --> 00:40:56.260
And don't you get around people,

832
00:40:56.280 --> 00:40:58.920
around people that are what we call pre-believers,

833
00:40:58.920 --> 00:41:01.520
you get around them and you can tell that they're marked.

834
00:41:01.520 --> 00:41:03.260
You can tell that they're marked.

835
00:41:03.260 --> 00:41:04.800
They may tell you that they've never been

836
00:41:04.800 --> 00:41:05.880
to church in their lives.

837
00:41:05.880 --> 00:41:08.720
They may tell you that no one in their family

838
00:41:08.720 --> 00:41:10.080
went to church or, you know,

839
00:41:10.080 --> 00:41:11.760
cause you're trying to talk to them about the Lord.

840
00:41:11.760 --> 00:41:13.840
Maybe they're your coworker or maybe they're,

841
00:41:13.840 --> 00:41:15.640
you know, the parent of one of your kid's friends,

842
00:41:15.640 --> 00:41:17.720
whoever they are, but you can tell

843
00:41:17.720 --> 00:41:18.800
that they're marked somehow.

844
00:41:18.800 --> 00:41:20.600
Have you guys ever experienced this?

845
00:41:21.720 --> 00:41:23.340
You're like, man, they don't know who they are,

846
00:41:23.340 --> 00:41:24.680
but I can certainly see it.

847
00:41:25.680 --> 00:41:27.100
I can see it.

848
00:41:30.000 --> 00:41:31.420
I can see it.

849
00:41:31.420 --> 00:41:35.680
And I want us to really just internalize the idea

850
00:41:35.680 --> 00:41:40.680
that this is why God keeps bringing us back around to this

851
00:41:41.400 --> 00:41:43.680
because that covenant friendship that we're carrying

852
00:41:43.680 --> 00:41:45.180
has a generational impact

853
00:41:45.180 --> 00:41:47.820
and God wants it to have an impact through you.

854
00:41:48.820 --> 00:41:50.920
I know we always hear about how sin passes

855
00:41:50.920 --> 00:41:53.960
through the generations, but so does friendship.

856
00:41:53.960 --> 00:41:56.320
And friendship is stronger than failure.

857
00:41:57.320 --> 00:42:00.360
Friendship and mercy is stronger than rebellion.

858
00:42:00.360 --> 00:42:01.200
It is.

859
00:42:02.040 --> 00:42:03.320
It's stronger than that.

860
00:42:04.600 --> 00:42:06.960
I believe that God wants there to be a revival

861
00:42:06.960 --> 00:42:08.120
of friends of God.

862
00:42:10.980 --> 00:42:13.060
All throughout the Bible, we see the same cycle.

863
00:42:13.060 --> 00:42:15.080
We see wicked people, then we see judgment,

864
00:42:15.080 --> 00:42:16.760
then we see righteousness rising,

865
00:42:16.760 --> 00:42:18.300
and then we see restoration.

866
00:42:18.300 --> 00:42:20.740
But friends, we are a restoration generation.

867
00:42:21.740 --> 00:42:24.540
The righteous King has already been here.

868
00:42:27.060 --> 00:42:29.520
The Bible says by one man's sin, we all became sinners,

869
00:42:29.520 --> 00:42:33.240
but by one man's righteousness, we all became righteous.

870
00:42:33.240 --> 00:42:34.100
It's done.

871
00:42:34.100 --> 00:42:35.460
It's a done deed.

872
00:42:36.820 --> 00:42:38.620
And so instead of praying for a revival,

873
00:42:38.620 --> 00:42:40.660
can we just go ahead and confess

874
00:42:40.660 --> 00:42:42.300
that we're living in revival?

875
00:42:44.220 --> 00:42:46.620
Now you can have a personal revival saying like,

876
00:42:46.620 --> 00:42:48.100
no more idols in my house.

877
00:42:48.100 --> 00:42:50.620
You can have a personal revival if you want to.

878
00:42:52.500 --> 00:42:54.420
And friends, there's no junior Holy Spirit.

879
00:42:54.420 --> 00:42:57.180
So if you have children, you have grandchildren,

880
00:42:57.180 --> 00:42:59.100
we talked about Josiah just a few minutes ago.

881
00:42:59.100 --> 00:43:01.740
He was only eight years old when he became King.

882
00:43:01.740 --> 00:43:03.500
I just wanna let you know that.

883
00:43:03.500 --> 00:43:06.660
Dude was eight when he became King.

884
00:43:09.620 --> 00:43:12.200
And so your kids can get in on this revival now.

885
00:43:12.200 --> 00:43:14.380
They can understand that they are friends of God now.

886
00:43:14.380 --> 00:43:17.060
Your grandchildren can understand that.

887
00:43:17.060 --> 00:43:20.260
Go ahead and be that mom, that dad, that grandparent

888
00:43:20.260 --> 00:43:24.260
that tells the kids who they are,

889
00:43:24.260 --> 00:43:26.320
their identity in an even greater way.

890
00:43:30.780 --> 00:43:33.340
Go ahead and let them stand on your yes.

891
00:43:33.340 --> 00:43:34.940
But I want you to understand that you're standing

892
00:43:34.940 --> 00:43:36.380
on someone else's yes.

893
00:43:37.780 --> 00:43:40.060
We are walking in grace that we didn't earn.

894
00:43:40.060 --> 00:43:42.820
We're reaping harvests that we didn't plant.

895
00:43:42.820 --> 00:43:44.620
And I believe that's gonna increase.

896
00:43:45.620 --> 00:43:48.220
Harvest is gonna increase.

897
00:43:48.220 --> 00:43:49.780
If we come into the understanding

898
00:43:49.780 --> 00:43:50.980
of what we're teaching today,

899
00:43:50.980 --> 00:43:54.580
I believe that God's gonna start showing you things

900
00:43:54.580 --> 00:43:58.460
that were in your family line that no one has reaped,

901
00:43:58.460 --> 00:43:59.700
but has been planted.

902
00:43:59.700 --> 00:44:03.060
And now it's time to harvest those things.

903
00:44:03.060 --> 00:44:06.020
We've been protected by prayers that we didn't pray.

904
00:44:06.020 --> 00:44:07.540
That's spiritual inheritance.

905
00:44:07.540 --> 00:44:09.260
And we all have it.

906
00:44:09.260 --> 00:44:11.260
Even if you don't know who it came from.

907
00:44:12.140 --> 00:44:14.900
So here's the next question and here's the activation.

908
00:44:16.420 --> 00:44:19.540
What does that mean coming through you now?

909
00:44:22.300 --> 00:44:25.580
You may have already known you were a friend of God,

910
00:44:25.580 --> 00:44:27.500
but for some of us, this is a revelation

911
00:44:27.500 --> 00:44:30.220
that we have to believe and receive.

912
00:44:34.460 --> 00:44:36.780
We have to believe it and receive it.

913
00:44:36.780 --> 00:44:38.540
Because when we walk with God as his friend,

914
00:44:38.540 --> 00:44:39.820
it doesn't just change our life,

915
00:44:40.060 --> 00:44:42.020
it's gonna alter our entire bloodline.

916
00:44:44.540 --> 00:44:46.700
So let's talk about, what would it look like

917
00:44:46.700 --> 00:44:49.220
for us to fulfill the mantles and the covenants

918
00:44:49.220 --> 00:44:52.220
and the promises of the past generations?

919
00:44:52.220 --> 00:44:53.060
What would that look like

920
00:44:53.060 --> 00:44:55.220
for us to be the fulfillment generation?

921
00:44:57.060 --> 00:44:59.820
Because we're not just benefiting from their faith,

922
00:44:59.820 --> 00:45:01.700
we need to be fulfilling their faith.

923
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:03.800
to finish what they started, even if they just started it with a prayer.

924
00:45:05.920 --> 00:45:09.560
I believe that my burden, my desire to help the homeless,

925
00:45:10.160 --> 00:45:12.960
it doesn't come from me. It comes from someone in my past.

926
00:45:17.000 --> 00:45:19.280
Has it ever occurred to you that the things that you like,

927
00:45:19.320 --> 00:45:20.760
the things that you're drawn to,

928
00:45:21.280 --> 00:45:25.640
that that's possibly part of some kind of mantle that you're carrying?

929
00:45:26.640 --> 00:45:28.280
Huh? Did that ever occur to anybody?

930
00:45:30.960 --> 00:45:34.800
Because every promise that God makes to people is eternal. It doesn't expire.

931
00:45:36.160 --> 00:45:37.360
It doesn't. Now,

932
00:45:37.360 --> 00:45:41.560
oftentimes we do have promises that God makes to us that are for a certain

933
00:45:41.560 --> 00:45:45.560
season. And then you may not really like the fulfillment of that.

934
00:45:45.560 --> 00:45:48.760
Maybe you didn't think that it really was kind of anticlimactic. It's like,

935
00:45:48.760 --> 00:45:51.880
Oh, okay, God. But it still got fulfilled.

936
00:45:52.400 --> 00:45:56.120
But it still got fulfilled. And it's just the beginning.

937
00:45:58.800 --> 00:46:01.720
And so if you feel like you have some promises that haven't been fulfilled,

938
00:46:01.720 --> 00:46:03.480
you need to start praying, Hey God, is this for me?

939
00:46:03.480 --> 00:46:05.040
Is this for a future generation?

940
00:46:06.960 --> 00:46:09.720
Is this something that you want me to believe and contend for,

941
00:46:09.720 --> 00:46:10.840
for a future generation?

942
00:46:10.840 --> 00:46:13.080
Or is this something that's going to be fulfilled during my lifetime?

943
00:46:13.840 --> 00:46:16.120
Also take the other promises to God and say, okay,

944
00:46:16.120 --> 00:46:19.240
do you want to add to these? Have these already been fulfilled,

945
00:46:19.240 --> 00:46:21.240
but maybe in a way that I didn't recognize.

946
00:46:21.240 --> 00:46:25.000
You really want to be a wise steward over your promises.

947
00:46:29.000 --> 00:46:33.480
There are some promises that some,

948
00:46:33.520 --> 00:46:36.720
I just had a friend pass away. I'm not part of his bloodline,

949
00:46:37.480 --> 00:46:39.680
but we are part of the bloodline of Jesus together.

950
00:46:39.680 --> 00:46:42.800
And he died at 50 years old. And it was really very, very shocking.

951
00:46:44.320 --> 00:46:45.160
It was very shocking.

952
00:46:45.160 --> 00:46:50.040
None of us expected it to happen and he was a great man of God.

953
00:46:50.240 --> 00:46:52.480
He was carrying so much,

954
00:46:53.360 --> 00:46:56.040
so much that was undone.

955
00:46:57.880 --> 00:47:00.320
And for those of you that know Michael, you know who I'm talking about.

956
00:47:01.800 --> 00:47:04.240
So when he passed away,

957
00:47:04.400 --> 00:47:09.400
I had just been at a conference with him and he was the speaker and we were in

958
00:47:12.120 --> 00:47:14.960
the green room. We were in the, you know, in the,

959
00:47:14.960 --> 00:47:19.960
in the room where the people were and we were having dinner at the same time.

960
00:47:20.080 --> 00:47:23.680
We were sitting at a table and I gave him a word from the Lord.

961
00:47:23.840 --> 00:47:24.800
Now he's a prophet,

962
00:47:25.680 --> 00:47:30.120
but I'm a prophet and I'm not intimidated by, you know,

963
00:47:30.160 --> 00:47:33.400
more recognized prophets. And I gave him a word from the Lord.

964
00:47:33.400 --> 00:47:36.120
And it was a powerful word and it was an instructional word.

965
00:47:38.440 --> 00:47:40.120
And he died a couple of months later, y'all.

966
00:47:42.120 --> 00:47:46.200
And I was so confused because the word was so detailed and it was so

967
00:47:46.200 --> 00:47:48.960
instructional. And I was like, God,

968
00:47:50.760 --> 00:47:52.000
I don't understand.

969
00:47:54.440 --> 00:47:59.200
How, how is he going to die? When I just gave him this word, you know,

970
00:47:59.240 --> 00:48:02.840
and I'm sure he had other words that were unfulfilled. And God said, that's okay.

971
00:48:02.840 --> 00:48:08.080
You can have that word. And I was like, what? And he was like,

972
00:48:08.080 --> 00:48:09.120
yeah. He said,

973
00:48:09.120 --> 00:48:12.840
you gave him that word because you're carrying a part of it. Now you can have it.

974
00:48:14.080 --> 00:48:18.200
That's your promise now. Wow.

975
00:48:19.200 --> 00:48:24.000
Wow. Y'all. Wow.

976
00:48:25.680 --> 00:48:29.200
He transitioned and what was left to do on earth,

977
00:48:29.400 --> 00:48:31.840
which I will admit the word that I gave him,

978
00:48:31.840 --> 00:48:36.640
I am kind of involved in that industry as well. And he received it.

979
00:48:36.640 --> 00:48:40.280
He said it was a confirmation. He'd said he'd received other words like that.

980
00:48:40.280 --> 00:48:43.960
It was a confirmation. It was very clarifying. And then boom,

981
00:48:43.960 --> 00:48:46.920
he goes to heaven. And now I'm carrying the mantle. Come on.

982
00:48:49.200 --> 00:48:53.360
That happened with Elijah and Elisha. You saw it in the Bible. It happened.

983
00:49:00.000 --> 00:49:05.000
All that God is looking for is someone who he can show himself strong through

984
00:49:05.400 --> 00:49:09.800
friends. That's the scripture says the eyes of heaven are roaming to and fro

985
00:49:09.800 --> 00:49:10.640
throughout the earth.

986
00:49:10.680 --> 00:49:15.680
Every moment looking for someone to show

987
00:49:16.000 --> 00:49:21.000
to show God himself strong through his power,

988
00:49:21.360 --> 00:49:25.120
his promise, his agenda. Will we be those people?

989
00:49:28.840 --> 00:49:30.000
Can we be those people?

990
00:49:31.360 --> 00:49:35.320
And then I want to end today to talking about Mephibosheth second Samuel nine,

991
00:49:35.320 --> 00:49:39.520
if you want to go read about it, but once again, it's about someone

992
00:49:41.360 --> 00:49:44.760
being in line to receive the blessings from a covenant.

993
00:49:45.440 --> 00:49:49.800
So David, King David, when he came into kingship over Israel,

994
00:49:49.800 --> 00:49:51.320
not just Judah, but Israel,

995
00:49:51.520 --> 00:49:55.440
this is after Saul and Saul and Jonathan had been killed in the battle.

996
00:49:56.200 --> 00:50:00.000
David said, is there anyone left of the house of Saul that I'm

997
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:04.600
may show them kindness because of my covenant with Jonathan.

998
00:50:04.600 --> 00:50:07.440
Once again, we see a covenant friendship,

999
00:50:07.440 --> 00:50:09.280
covenant loyalty.

1000
00:50:09.280 --> 00:50:12.440
The king, don't miss the typology of this.

1001
00:50:12.440 --> 00:50:15.400
The king was searching for someone to bless

1002
00:50:15.400 --> 00:50:18.720
because of a covenant that was made generations earlier,

1003
00:50:18.720 --> 00:50:21.000
or one generation earlier.

1004
00:50:21.000 --> 00:50:24.240
And so Jonathan had a son, but that son was crippled.

1005
00:50:24.240 --> 00:50:27.160
He actually became crippled by the sins of the fathers,

1006
00:50:27.160 --> 00:50:28.680
his grandfather, Saul.

1007
00:50:28.680 --> 00:50:33.240
Because of what Saul had done, Mephibosheth was suffering.

1008
00:50:33.240 --> 00:50:34.880
How many of you have suffered

1009
00:50:34.880 --> 00:50:37.480
because of the curses in your family?

1010
00:50:37.480 --> 00:50:40.240
The things, the sins of your fathers and mothers

1011
00:50:40.240 --> 00:50:42.120
and grandmothers and grandfathers.

1012
00:50:43.560 --> 00:50:45.120
God does not want it to be true

1013
00:50:45.120 --> 00:50:46.880
that you are suffering in curses

1014
00:50:46.880 --> 00:50:48.880
instead of being blessed in blessings.

1015
00:50:51.960 --> 00:50:52.960
It's time.

1016
00:50:54.040 --> 00:50:55.360
We are covenant restorers.

1017
00:50:55.360 --> 00:50:56.880
We are friends of God.

1018
00:50:56.920 --> 00:50:58.600
We are covenant fulfillment.

1019
00:51:00.200 --> 00:51:01.600
It's time for us to rise up.

1020
00:51:03.480 --> 00:51:05.080
So they went looking for Mephibosheth.

1021
00:51:05.080 --> 00:51:07.600
They found him in a place called Lodabar.

1022
00:51:08.880 --> 00:51:12.440
And that word means barrenness and shame.

1023
00:51:13.920 --> 00:51:14.800
What was he doing?

1024
00:51:14.800 --> 00:51:18.440
He was eating crumbs under some servant's table,

1025
00:51:18.440 --> 00:51:20.280
even though he was a son of the king.

1026
00:51:20.640 --> 00:51:23.480
So David invited him to the palace

1027
00:51:24.360 --> 00:51:26.160
to eat continually at his table.

1028
00:51:27.280 --> 00:51:28.120
But I want you to make sure

1029
00:51:28.120 --> 00:51:29.400
you read that story very carefully

1030
00:51:29.400 --> 00:51:32.080
because Mephibosheth had an orphan mindset

1031
00:51:32.080 --> 00:51:33.880
that made him incapable of receiving

1032
00:51:33.880 --> 00:51:35.480
what belonged to him by covenant.

1033
00:51:37.040 --> 00:51:39.280
And orphan mindsets will keep us

1034
00:51:39.280 --> 00:51:42.280
from receiving what belongs to us already by covenant.

1035
00:51:42.280 --> 00:51:43.120
You don't have to earn it.

1036
00:51:43.120 --> 00:51:44.600
You don't have to deserve it.

1037
00:51:44.600 --> 00:51:47.240
Mephibosheth saw himself as a beggar

1038
00:51:47.240 --> 00:51:49.600
Mephibosheth saw himself as a beggar.

1039
00:51:50.920 --> 00:51:53.440
He didn't see himself as worthy to sit at the king's table.

1040
00:51:53.440 --> 00:51:55.720
So I'm just gonna go ahead and clear this up for all of you.

1041
00:51:55.720 --> 00:51:56.960
You're not worthy.

1042
00:51:58.680 --> 00:52:00.200
And you also don't have to be.

1043
00:52:01.960 --> 00:52:04.760
If you're gonna spend your entire life trying to earn this,

1044
00:52:04.760 --> 00:52:07.320
then you are going to die as a beggar.

1045
00:52:09.120 --> 00:52:13.760
You will never earn the attention of God.

1046
00:52:13.800 --> 00:52:17.800
He gives it to you freely because you're his kid,

1047
00:52:17.800 --> 00:52:19.560
because you're his friend.

1048
00:52:19.560 --> 00:52:22.640
It's not about what you have done or have not done.

1049
00:52:22.640 --> 00:52:24.920
Your job is to believe and receive.

1050
00:52:26.360 --> 00:52:27.680
Your job is to believe and receive.

1051
00:52:27.680 --> 00:52:29.680
I'll never forget the day that God said to me

1052
00:52:29.680 --> 00:52:30.880
as I was reading in his word.

1053
00:52:30.880 --> 00:52:33.040
He said, Jackie, do you want what you're reading?

1054
00:52:33.040 --> 00:52:35.120
I was specifically reading John 10, 10.

1055
00:52:35.120 --> 00:52:37.720
And Jesus came that we might have life

1056
00:52:37.720 --> 00:52:39.960
and have it to the overflow.

1057
00:52:39.960 --> 00:52:41.760
He said, do you want that overflow life?

1058
00:52:41.760 --> 00:52:42.920
I said, oh yeah.

1059
00:52:42.920 --> 00:52:44.640
Do you wanna be fully alive?

1060
00:52:44.640 --> 00:52:46.240
Oh yeah, I do.

1061
00:52:46.240 --> 00:52:47.960
He said, okay, then you just have to learn

1062
00:52:47.960 --> 00:52:49.760
how to do one thing.

1063
00:52:49.760 --> 00:52:51.040
I was like, just one thing?

1064
00:52:51.040 --> 00:52:52.480
He's like, yes, just one thing.

1065
00:52:52.480 --> 00:52:54.040
I'm like, okay, what's the one thing?

1066
00:52:54.040 --> 00:52:56.080
And I'm expecting it to be something really hard.

1067
00:52:56.080 --> 00:52:58.120
Love your enemies, do this, do that.

1068
00:52:58.120 --> 00:53:00.680
He said, you have to learn how to receive

1069
00:53:00.680 --> 00:53:01.920
what you don't deserve.

1070
00:53:04.200 --> 00:53:05.040
Whoa.

1071
00:53:06.560 --> 00:53:07.400
That's it, Jackie.

1072
00:53:07.400 --> 00:53:08.560
That's all you have to be able to do.

1073
00:53:08.560 --> 00:53:12.240
You have to be able to receive what you do not deserve.

1074
00:53:13.920 --> 00:53:18.920
What you did not earn, what you do not merit.

1075
00:53:21.880 --> 00:53:25.360
Can you be a conduit of heaven?

1076
00:53:25.360 --> 00:53:29.040
Can I get to you and through you my blessings

1077
00:53:29.040 --> 00:53:31.720
without you stopping up the flow

1078
00:53:31.720 --> 00:53:33.400
because of needing to deserve it?

1079
00:53:37.880 --> 00:53:39.800
Well, friends, I think that we can answer the question

1080
00:53:39.800 --> 00:53:40.800
that I said yes to that.

1081
00:53:40.800 --> 00:53:42.760
And that's why we're all here in this movement

1082
00:53:42.760 --> 00:53:45.800
because I certainly don't deserve this, but here we are.

1083
00:53:47.560 --> 00:53:49.160
Are you gonna be a Mephibosheth?

1084
00:53:50.800 --> 00:53:52.560
Are you gonna be a David?

1085
00:53:54.520 --> 00:53:56.200
Because David certainly didn't deserve

1086
00:53:56.200 --> 00:53:57.760
the stuff that was going on in his life.

1087
00:53:57.760 --> 00:53:59.520
He messed up royally.

1088
00:53:59.520 --> 00:54:01.080
Get that little pun there.

1089
00:54:01.080 --> 00:54:03.520
He messed up royally, but the bottom line is,

1090
00:54:03.520 --> 00:54:05.280
is that God continued to bless him.

1091
00:54:05.400 --> 00:54:07.320
In fact, when you read the scriptures,

1092
00:54:07.320 --> 00:54:09.200
it says that God didn't just bless him.

1093
00:54:09.200 --> 00:54:10.320
We just read the scriptures.

1094
00:54:10.320 --> 00:54:12.840
God blessed other people because of him.

1095
00:54:12.840 --> 00:54:16.760
For David's sake, for David's sake, for David's sake.

1096
00:54:17.960 --> 00:54:19.960
We see the same thing with Abraham.

1097
00:54:19.960 --> 00:54:22.480
And he also made mistakes.

1098
00:54:24.080 --> 00:54:26.800
So we are not gonna sit and load a bar under tables,

1099
00:54:26.800 --> 00:54:28.680
eating crumbs, friends.

1100
00:54:28.680 --> 00:54:31.000
We're also going to allow Holy Spirit to show up

1101
00:54:31.000 --> 00:54:32.720
and say, I'm gonna bless you.

1102
00:54:33.160 --> 00:54:35.320
We're also going to allow Holy Spirit to show us

1103
00:54:35.320 --> 00:54:37.160
where we have orphan mindsets.

1104
00:54:38.400 --> 00:54:40.240
Because the King is looking for you

1105
00:54:40.240 --> 00:54:43.520
because of promises that he made to your ancestors.

1106
00:54:43.520 --> 00:54:45.520
And he is saying, for your grandmother's sake,

1107
00:54:45.520 --> 00:54:46.760
for your great grandmother's sake,

1108
00:54:46.760 --> 00:54:48.960
for this person's sake, for that person's sake,

1109
00:54:48.960 --> 00:54:50.080
I'm bringing you into a favor.

1110
00:54:50.080 --> 00:54:52.240
And someday when you're long gone in heaven

1111
00:54:52.240 --> 00:54:55.800
and join the rewards of covenant,

1112
00:54:55.800 --> 00:54:58.880
he's gonna say the same thing over other people.

1113
00:54:58.880 --> 00:55:00.280
But we cannot see ourselves.

1114
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:04.080
through a small lens anymore because we are missing our seat at the table and it's already set for us.

1115
00:55:04.960 --> 00:55:09.040
We are not a leftover generation. We are the fulfillment generation. Say it over yourself.

1116
00:55:09.040 --> 00:55:15.040
I am the fulfillment generation. I am the generation that heaven has been waiting for

1117
00:55:15.040 --> 00:55:20.720
to fulfill the promises to my ancestors. I am the person heaven has been waiting for

1118
00:55:20.720 --> 00:55:26.880
to fulfill the covenant from my ancestors. I will rebuild the ancient ruins. I will raise up the

1119
00:55:26.880 --> 00:55:32.400
former devastations and repair the ruined cities, the desolations of many generations. I am the

1120
00:55:32.400 --> 00:55:38.080
repairer of the breach. I am the restorer of paths to dwell in. It's not just poetic, friends, it's

1121
00:55:38.080 --> 00:55:43.520
prophetic. We are the generation God is using to restore what was lost, not just to our families

1122
00:55:43.520 --> 00:55:50.720
but to entire bloodlines, communities, nations, people groups. Now I want you to receive this

1123
00:55:50.720 --> 00:55:54.640
blessing. You're going to live in houses you didn't build. You're going to enjoy vineyards

1124
00:55:54.640 --> 00:56:00.320
that you didn't plant. You're going to inhabit lands that you didn't purchase. That's legacy.

1125
00:56:02.640 --> 00:56:07.680
And we're not trespassing, friends. We're inheriting. I did a post a long time ago,

1126
00:56:07.680 --> 00:56:13.360
maybe over a decade ago, that just said God's kids, we don't grind. We inherit.

1127
00:56:14.800 --> 00:56:20.000
We inherit. We're walking into spaces and places prepared for us by divine promise.

1128
00:56:20.000 --> 00:56:24.480
We're moving into blessings that belong to our bloodline. You might think that your bloodlines

1129
00:56:24.480 --> 00:56:29.040
broke as a joke, but they're not. They were royalty. They were royalty. All of us, we come

1130
00:56:29.040 --> 00:56:34.320
from royalty, friends. We come from heaven. And the blessings of our ancestors, they didn't fully

1131
00:56:34.320 --> 00:56:38.080
enter them, but we're going to enter them. We're going to bridge the generational gap.

1132
00:56:39.120 --> 00:56:44.560
We are. Say it over myself. I'm a repairer. I'm a restorer. I'm a rebuilder. Come on.

1133
00:56:44.560 --> 00:56:47.200
I'm a repairer. I'm a restorer. I'm a rebuilder.

1134
00:56:48.000 --> 00:56:51.840
All right. So if you believe this and you receive this today, I want you to picture yourself,

1135
00:56:51.840 --> 00:56:55.840
come on, close your eyes. And we'll activate this more tomorrow night for those of you that

1136
00:56:55.840 --> 00:57:05.920
come to activation. Picture yourself walking right now into everything, like into a place of spoils.

1137
00:57:05.920 --> 00:57:13.360
Okay. Like the King's palace, walking into a place of honor, sitting at the King's table,

1138
00:57:13.360 --> 00:57:18.320
I want you to see that right now. And I want you to see yourself surrounded

1139
00:57:18.960 --> 00:57:21.680
by every promise that was postponed or stolen.

1140
00:57:24.400 --> 00:57:27.600
For those of you that your family, all that runs your family is divorced. I want you to see just

1141
00:57:27.600 --> 00:57:32.720
married people at the table. I want you to just to picture your future generations. They're all

1142
00:57:32.720 --> 00:57:40.880
married. There's kids running around. No families broken up. No families broken up.

1143
00:57:41.600 --> 00:57:46.000
No families broken. No one's sick. For those of you that have had generational curses of sickness,

1144
00:57:46.000 --> 00:57:52.160
everyone's whole. No one's blind or lame or crippled. No one has diseases. Come on, y'all.

1145
00:57:53.680 --> 00:57:56.480
Bible says we can have heaven on earth. That's what heaven looks like.

1146
00:57:57.760 --> 00:58:03.040
And I want you to say this, Lord, repeat after me if you believe it. Lord, I receive

1147
00:58:03.280 --> 00:58:11.040
I receive every unfinished covenant, every unfulfilled word,

1148
00:58:12.720 --> 00:58:18.480
every dormant promise. Let it come alive in me.

1149
00:58:21.440 --> 00:58:27.360
Let it come alive in me. Now I want you, here's your homework and you can bring this to activation.

1150
00:58:27.920 --> 00:58:33.760
Ask Holy Spirit, what gifts, what assignments have been in my family but were never fully realized?

1151
00:58:34.880 --> 00:58:38.560
Write it down. I want you to pray into this. What gifts and assignments have been in my family,

1152
00:58:39.360 --> 00:58:46.560
but they were never fully realized? And where did they stop that I'm called to start again?

1153
00:58:48.320 --> 00:58:49.120
Where did they stop?

1154
00:58:49.280 --> 00:58:50.160
Where did they stop?

1155
00:58:52.880 --> 00:58:59.280
Where did they stop? And then I want you to pray this prayer. Lord, let every mantle that was

1156
00:58:59.280 --> 00:59:06.080
dropped be picked up in my hands and I will walk out what they dreamed of. I will not just honor

1157
00:59:06.080 --> 00:59:14.080
the legacy. I will extend it. Come on, you guys, you believe this? It's true. It's biblical.

1158
00:59:15.040 --> 00:59:18.160
All right, I'm just going to release. It's 10 o'clock. We're at the hour. I'm going to release

1159
00:59:18.160 --> 00:59:20.160
these declarations over you guys right now.

1160
00:59:23.840 --> 00:59:30.160
And you can repeat these after me if you want to and if you believe it. My generation is the

1161
00:59:30.160 --> 00:59:34.160
fulfillment generation. Come on. My generation is the fulfillment generation.

1162
00:59:35.680 --> 00:59:41.280
The king has remembered his covenant and he's looking for me. Come on. The king has remembered

1163
00:59:42.240 --> 00:59:51.680
his covenant and he is looking for me. I break agreement with every orphan thought and I take my

1164
00:59:51.680 --> 00:59:59.280
place at the table. Come on, friends. I carry the mantles.

1165
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:02.600
I fulfill the covenants.

1166
01:00:02.600 --> 01:00:06.860
I complete the promises left in my family line.

1167
01:00:08.960 --> 01:00:11.440
I am a repairer of the breach

1168
01:00:11.440 --> 01:00:13.700
and a restorer of paths to dwell in.

1169
01:00:15.480 --> 01:00:17.560
I will rebuild the ancient ruins

1170
01:00:17.560 --> 01:00:20.680
and restore the desolations of many generations.

1171
01:00:22.640 --> 01:00:24.960
And I will live in houses I didn't build

1172
01:00:24.960 --> 01:00:27.600
and drink from vineyards I didn't plant

1173
01:00:27.600 --> 01:00:31.780
because legacy is my inheritance.

1174
01:00:33.560 --> 01:00:35.480
So Lord, we thank you for remembering the promises

1175
01:00:35.480 --> 01:00:37.160
that you made to our ancestors.

1176
01:00:37.160 --> 01:00:41.120
And we thank you for letting us be your friends, Lord.

1177
01:00:41.120 --> 01:00:43.140
Calling us friends, Lord.

1178
01:00:43.140 --> 01:00:45.200
Thank you for your yes, God, to us

1179
01:00:45.200 --> 01:00:46.420
and opening the door for us.

1180
01:00:46.420 --> 01:00:48.040
And today we say yes again.

1181
01:00:48.040 --> 01:00:50.880
We say yes to you as you say yes to us.

1182
01:00:50.880 --> 01:00:52.080
We come out of Lodobar.

1183
01:00:52.080 --> 01:00:54.360
We come out of lack and shame and small thinking

1184
01:00:54.360 --> 01:00:58.280
and we take our seat at your table, Lord.

1185
01:00:58.280 --> 01:01:00.040
Let every mantle, covenant, and promise

1186
01:01:00.040 --> 01:01:02.200
come to full expression

1187
01:01:02.200 --> 01:01:04.920
in the lives of your sons and daughters.

1188
01:01:04.920 --> 01:01:06.320
Make us repairers of the breach

1189
01:01:06.320 --> 01:01:09.720
and restorers of the paths that other people can dwell in.

1190
01:01:09.720 --> 01:01:12.200
Help us to build bridges that other people can cross

1191
01:01:12.200 --> 01:01:13.800
and come to you, Lord.

1192
01:01:13.800 --> 01:01:16.640
Let your mercy echo through our lives,

1193
01:01:16.640 --> 01:01:18.080
through our family line,

1194
01:01:18.080 --> 01:01:20.240
because of our friendship with you, Lord.

1195
01:01:20.240 --> 01:01:22.520
In Jesus' name, amen.

1196
01:01:22.520 --> 01:01:23.600
I love all of you.

1197
01:01:24.360 --> 01:01:28.760
