Good morning, everybody, and welcome to Supernatural Saturday.
I know we have a lot of new people joining us in our movement.
And so if you're new here, welcome.
This is a very important session of the week.
And so if you don't ever get to hear it live, please listen to it in replay.
The replay will be up within 24 to 48 hours in your replay section of whatever group that
you're in, because this is the time where we look to heaven for current prophetic reality.
We have a reality that's screaming at us in our face every day that is not accurate.
Each and every one of us have a different reality that is trying to have precedent in
our lives.
OK, a different set of circumstances, a different set of facts that might be true for you.
But I want to let you know that truth always trumps fact.
Truth always overcomes fact.
And so it's important for us to understand and to know that even though these things
seem very real to us, what is most real is whatever heaven is saying and whatever heaven
is doing.
And it gets easier as you transform your mind with that truth to come into agreement with
the unseen realm, with God, with his plan, with his purposes than what's right in front
of you.
It gets easier.
So if you're like, wow, that's really hard because this stuff really is pressing on me.
I get it.
I haven't just been there.
I am there.
We all live in that.
And that's why the Bible says that if we continue in his word, Jesus speaking, we will know
the truth and the truth will make us free.
Free from what?
Free from the burden of this reality that is trying to tell you an opposite story.
OK, but we have to continue in his word.
It gives us an admonition of what we have to do.
It admonishes us to do something.
And that's what we do here on Saturday.
We continue in his word.
What is God saying?
What did Jesus say while he was walking the earth?
What is heaven doing right now in our lives?
And so, Father God, we look to you right now.
We thank you for this time to come together.
We thank you that your truth is greater than our fact.
We thank you that you're always working in our lives, even when we can't see it.
We don't have to see it because your word tells us to walk by faith and not by sight.
And so, Lord, I ask that you would increase our faith today.
Your word says that faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God.
So help me to speak your word today.
Speak to me and speak through me so that our faith can be increased and we can see miracles
and breakthrough in any and every situation.
In Jesus name, amen.
All right.
For those of you that are in phase three women's group, you already know this, but I got a
wild hair this week.
I got a wild hair this week and I went live, very out of breath on a walk because I'm very
out of shape.
But you know what?
I'm getting after it.
And so that's a little nugget for all of you out there.
It doesn't matter if you're not good at it yet, whatever it is, whatever that thing is,
just get after it.
Right?
I know I'm not an Olympian and guess what?
I'm not trying to be one.
Those days are long gone for me.
And you know what?
They never were.
For those of you that are just joining us, I have a cold and that's why I sound like
I've smoked a thousand cigarettes today.
Funny story.
I used to smoke.
I know that might be hard or not hard to believe.
Some of you are like, yeah, I could see that Jackie.
But I used to smoke like over a pack of cigarettes a day when I was a teenager, you guys.
When I was a teenager, I was addicted to nicotine and I smoked.
I started smoking when I was about 17.
I quit when I was about 20, thank God.
But yes, my voice did not sound like this though.
All right.
So just a cold.
No worries.
I'm not back on the Nick stick.
Don't worry about me.
I'm good.
But if you are struggling with that, you know what?
There's freedom for that.
And I want to tell you something.
It wasn't easy.
It was not easy to quit smoking.
There's a physical addiction, but there's a very strong psychological and mental and
emotional addiction to that.
And so if that is something that you're using to ease your stress, because I do believe
that's what people use it for, there is freedom from that.
There is, I promise you, and God can help you.
One day I woke up and I was like, I don't want to do this anymore.
And even though I didn't know God yet, I know that was God.
It was God leading me out of the counterfeit and leading me into the authentic.
And so I just leaned into that.
I don't want to do this anymore and Holy Spirit was helping me even though I didn't know it
and I was able to break free from that and every day I was able to take another little
step forward.
Friends, it's about every day taking a little step forward.
There's pain in process, it is true, but it is the pain of change.
There's a whole different type of pain and that is the pain of staying the same and we
don't want that because that pain just goes on and on and on and on, but the pain of change
will end.
I promise you that.
Process is not forever and we're going to talk about process today at the end as I activate
you.
Guys, I'm drinking out of a cup that says grateful and I have an identical twin cup
to this cup.
It looks exactly the same blue, light blue and white and it says blessed on it and it
was a wedding present to me.
It wasn't my wedding, it was one of my students' weddings.
For those of you that have been in the community long enough, you'll remember a beautiful couple
that met here.
I helped them get together and helped them stay together and get married and their names
are Ralph and Diana.
Well, they gave me these beautiful cups, these mugs as a present for their wedding and grateful
and blessed is what they say.
I want to remind all of us, even though Supernatural Saturday today is not on this subject, I am
going to do one this month about being thankful, being grateful, about counting your blessings.
This is the month where a lot of people look to thankfulness, especially in America.
This is our Thanksgiving month.
If you're in Canada, you just had your Thanksgiving month, I believe last month and so we need
to really press into that idea and we'll probably do next Supernatural Saturday.
A lot of people ask, hey, around the holidays, do we still have these?
I'm still going to show up.
If you have to watch and replay, I understand, but I'm going to show up and I'm going to
talk about showing up today because that really is what this Supernatural Saturday is about.
Back to my original story, I got a wild hair and the ladies in phase three, they got to
hear me on a walk out of breath trying to communicate some ideas that I'm now going
to hopefully communicate even better to all of you.
My podcast is coming, it's just a little public service announcement.
My podcast, The Jackie Show, is coming out in December, just in a week or two.
You're going to see the first episodes of that.
I was live on my Instagram.
If you don't follow me on Instagram, it's Jackie Dorman Official.
Go follow me there because I'm going to be releasing all kinds of fun stuff over there.
Those of you that are behind this paywall, that are on subscription, you guys are going
to get first dibs on anything that I discuss over there, just so you know.
You guys will be the people that are involved with that.
If you get a little FOMO when you're over there, like, hey, you know, oh, no, don't
get FOMO because whatever I'm talking about to the public, I'm already doing with you.
I'm already doing it with you.
Don't get any FOMO there.
You guys will always come first in this program, in my life, in my heart, you all are first.
I said to the public, hey, if there's anything you want me to talk about on this podcast,
DM me.
If there are memes that you want me to react to on my podcast, I'll do that.
If you have a situation and you want to send me a receipt of those text messages between
you and someone else and you want me to weigh in, I'll do that.
If you have videos that you see out here that are directed towards singles and you want
to ask a question about it, I'll do that.
Send it to me.
People started sending me stuff that very night.
One of our beautiful, amazing illustrious students in this group was watching and she
sent me a video and she sent me a video and you guys, it's a soundbite.
It's a hot take.
It's a clip.
It's a reel on Instagram on a very, very important subject and it was discouraging to her heart
and she sent it to me because she wanted me to weigh in on it and that is why I got a
wild hair because I watched that soundbite and I was like, oh, oh, no, no, no.
But I'd like to say it's an isolated incident, but it's not.
Soundbites like this exist and they exist in big quantities, okay?
I need some tea.
Hold on.
All right.
What's a wild hair?
It's just an expression my grandma used to use when you go off on a tangent.
All the young millennials or Gen Z are like, hey, by the way, what's a wild hair?
That's old folks.
talk, and not me, but even the generation before me.
It's just when you go off on a tangent, when you go off on a rant, right?
Okay.
So now that we have that cleared up.
So the subject that this video was on was a subject that I believe is a different gospel.
It's a subject that I believe is a theology that has been created by the church in order
to try to spiritually bypass people's pain.
You're going to hear a little bit more about that in a second, but the subject was why
being single is holy, right?
And also within that video, it was using a scripture that I also know very, very well.
And that's Matthew 19.
And I use that scripture as well in my books, in my teachings, in my challenges, but that
scripture was actually being not just misrepresented, but twisted to mean the exact opposite of
what it really means, the exact opposite of what it means.
And you guys, I just have a lowly 15,000 followers, and I love every one of them on my Instagram,
except for the scammers that are trying to sell me something, all right?
But this account had close to 400,000 followers.
And so you can see that the influence is definitely out of balance right there.
And what concerns me is that this type of information is being perpetuated there.
And so, of course, we're all on the same team.
This is a Christian account, and I'm just like, Lord, help them.
Let them see.
I very respectfully made a few comments on the video because I'm not here to disrespect
anyone, disrespect their beliefs, and maybe they just don't know, okay?
But I have to address it because God wants His sons and daughters married.
God wants His sons and daughters partnered.
I'm going to say it again.
God wants His sons and daughters partnered.
You guys, this is how this all started for me.
I've always loved love.
I've always loved fixing up my friends.
I've always loved playing the matchmaker.
I think I'm good at it, you know, in the way that it's just like a spiritual discernment.
Like, these people should meet, and then let's do it.
Okay, great, wonderful.
God's the ultimate matchmaker.
I have been His helper many times, okay?
But when I started doing this, it's because I was sitting in my office surrounded by heartwork,
material and curriculum.
My mom had just passed away.
COVID was just about to begin.
The lockdown was going to happen about a month from the day that I'm telling you about right
now, and none of us knew that that was on the horizon.
And I was sitting there, and I was grieving my mother, and I was looking at my life and
what I had accomplished and what I wanted to accomplish as far as helping people.
And you guys, if I was going to tell you the main reason that I think that I'm on the earth,
it is to eradicate religion.
Religion almost cost me my life many times, right?
Yes, I was living in a dangerous and precarious situation as an unbeliever, and then I met
Jesus.
But you guys, when I met Jesus, I met Jesus.
I had an incredible, radical conversion experience that filled me full of love and full of understanding
about the character of God.
It was truly an incredible miracle experience.
But then religion found me.
I was discipled by probably one of the most legalistic denominations in Christianity,
and they taught me all kinds of terrible things about God's character that started to give
me panic attacks, that started to give me panic disorder, that made me afraid of God.
Yes, I was still going to church and going through every single ritual of serving God
because, of course, I'm not going to serve someone who's that scary.
But I lost that father connection with him that I had at my conversion.
It's one of those things where you don't have to be taught it.
You just know when it's authentic.
You just know it.
It just comes into you and you're like, wow, and you're so full of love and you love everyone
and anything that anyone's ever done to you, you just don't care anymore.
I mean, it's the most beautiful and amazing experience.
And if you haven't experienced it, then you might just have met religion and not Jesus.
And I want you to meet Jesus because he's amazing.
He's amazing.
So I want to spend my life helping peel back those layers for people.
And when people haven't met anything yet, religion or Jesus, I want to make sure that
they meet them.
real Jesus, not the hair splitter, not the rule keeper.
Okay, I don't want them to meet the Jesus
that they think is angry with everyone.
I don't want that to be what they get told.
All right, so that applies to this as well.
So I'm sitting there in my little loft,
in my little rented house, and God says to me,
Jackie, I want my sons and daughters married.
It's just what he says to me.
He says, Jackie, I want my sons and daughters married.
Will you help me?
I want them to partner.
I need them to partner.
Why?
Because of what's coming.
Y'all, none of us have seen what's coming yet.
And that's not a doomsday prediction.
But you have been matched to live
during a specific era of time.
Your timeline of your earthly life
has been matched with a timeline on the earth
that's important.
You are important.
And God is saying you need a partner for what's coming.
Do you hear me?
Not just coming in the world, but coming in your life.
You need a partner.
Two are better than one.
You guys, look back.
We're gonna look back today at the origin story.
We're gonna look back at divine identity,
original design today,
to prove that two are better than one.
Even when Jesus was on the earth
and he sent out people that were clearly not married,
but he sent out disciples to do the work of the kingdom,
he sent them out, once again, in twos.
So God said, I want my sons and daughters married.
Jackie, will you help?
And the reason why he asked me is because
I am the daughter of God that is always calling shotgun.
If God's up to something, especially if it's crazy, I'm in.
I'm in, okay?
And so he came to me and said, hey, you wanna do this?
And I said, yes, I do.
Absolutely.
Do you wanna make an alliance with me?
Yes, I wanna make an alliance with you.
All right, what are we gonna do?
And then he immediately downloaded to me
all the curriculum for Married in 12 Months or Less.
Y'all, I downloaded it.
I downloaded it.
You know how people always have these controversies
over people spiritually writing?
Like, for instance, what's her face that wrote Harry Potter?
Rolling, she said that she wrote it on a train.
See how thick those books are?
I've never read them, but they're very thick.
They're very big books.
And they're very intricate characters
and associations between characters
and storylines and plots.
But she says that she just started writing
and she didn't stop, right?
That is how the Married in 12 Months or Less curriculum
was born for me.
And that's not abnormal for me to write
with the help of Holy Spirit,
because I've done that many, many times
since I met Jesus when I was 22 years old.
Because I am a writer.
It is a gift of mine.
And that is a gift that God has used
for all different types of things.
Narration for casting plays and short stories
and things that back in the beginning weren't sermons
because I was in a denomination
that didn't allow women to speak or preach.
But I would write out whole things
with the help of Holy Spirit
that would be considered sermons,
but I would use them in creative plays
and skits and different things in the church that I attended
because women weren't allowed to speak.
And so there's always a way,
this is a little caveat for those of you that are new,
you'll see that these Supernatural Saturdays
are full of nuggets, okay?
Everyone gets something.
And so if you are making excuses
about using the things that God has gifted you with,
that there is no space or room for them, you're wrong.
You just gotta get creative sometimes.
Sometimes you just gotta get creative
with what God has given you.
So the curriculum got downloaded, why?
Because God wanted it out there
and He didn't want it out there a year from that time,
He wanted it out there immediately.
And so you guys,
I immediately started to teach that curriculum
to a warm audience.
I put out a message on Facebook,
hey, who wants to be married, who's single?
I had been posting about singleness
for years and years and years and years to people
about relationships, dating advice, relationship advice.
It was something that has always been inside of me
and God put that all together and we launched it.
And of course it's called Last Year Single Now.
But back then it was M12M, Married in 12 Months
and people began to come.
And by the end of that year, 2020,
we had our first weddings.
Y'all, we had our first weddings.
And can I tell you, not only has it not stopped, it has accelerated to the point that last
weekend we had three weddings and one engagement.
Every week we have engagement announcements.
Come on, you guys.
These are people that have been in this program for all different lengths of time because
everyone's process is different.
Everyone's process is different.
And I know it's easy to sit around and look at other people's process and say, I wish
they had their process.
They're already in a serious relationship and that's not fair.
And that's just not how it works.
You guys all have different things to work through and you may not think you have it.
And the people that don't think they have it are usually the people that have it.
Okay.
There are things that God is trying to get in order, specifically your house, which is
your heart, because he knows what I know, and that is that marriage is hard.
This isn't just about getting people married.
It's about helping them stay married too.
So that is how, if you did not know the story, the revival of marriage and family here in
this movement has begun.
But there's this other ideology, this other created theology.
Why do I say it's created?
Because guys, there's the uncreated realm, the third heaven.
That's where God lives, right?
It's not a place.
It's not up.
It's a dimension.
It's another dimension.
God in every...
And God, Holy Spirit, the Son, the Trinity, if that's the language that you grew up hearing,
that is...
They are uncreated, uncreated.
You never, ever, ever, ever see where they came from in the word, do you?
That's because they always were.
And I know that that hurts your brain and I'm not asking you to think about that this
morning.
But there's the uncreated and then there's the created.
And the created is everything else.
The second heaven, the first heaven, that's earth.
All of this has been created by what?
By the uncreated.
Say it out loud.
The created has been created by the uncreated.
And you know why that's important?
Because it's important for you to know that nothing that is created can prompt what the
uncreated has said.
The next time you find yourself running from the devil, I want you to remind yourself of
why the devil was created.
God is bigger.
God is more powerful.
You guys, this is not a war between light and darkness.
Light always wins.
The war only happens inside of us about what we will choose because we have the power of
free will and choice.
It has nothing to do with what is really stronger.
You know that, right?
The war is over the hearts and minds of humanity and who they will choose, light or dark.
It's not between light or dark.
Come on, that's important.
You need to hear that.
You need to know that you've always been on the winning team here.
But people have free choice.
They have free will and they will choose according to what they want to choose.
And they will choose according to the information they have.
And that's where we come in.
We are the light bearers.
We are Matthew 5.
We are the city that's set on a hill that cannot be hid.
And in this specific Supernatural Saturday, I want to talk about that as the revival of
marriage and family.
You are the revivalist.
So you guys, I got on my Instagram and I publicly fought for you.
I publicly fought against this religious lie that's trying to be perpetuated to the
masses.
And I just want to let you know that that idea that it's more holy to stay single is
dangerous.
It's a dangerous idea.
And it's not a biblical idea.
And I'm going to prove that to you.
I don't ask you to take my word for it.
A lot of you go to churches where there's a lot of sound and there's a lot of hype,
but there's not a lot of biblical premise for what's being said.
And then when it doesn't come true, because it's not biblical, you get mad at God.
Well, guess what?
We can't just read the word.
We got to read the word.
So this idea that it's more holy to stay single is a dangerous idea, and it's not a biblical
idea.
And you know what happens when people like you hear it?
It sounds spiritual.
And you start.
It starts to cause an environment in your heart that you'll defer hope.
The Bible says that when we defer our hope, when we set it aside, when we postpone having
hope about something because we're not really sure it's going to happen, that makes our
heart sick and heart and sick hearts look for medication.
When we start getting disappointed and discouraged in our hearts because our hope has been deferred,
it's been postponed, we're not really sure that the things we want are going to happen,
we start to get distracted.
It causes disruption.
In some of us, it causes destruction.
And so that is the plot and plan of the enemy is to get you to align your heart with something
that's going to make it disappointed.
Because I want you to raise your hand and just be honest.
If it was true that it was just more holy to stay single, how many of you would be discouraged
by that?
Let's see those hands.
I want people to know that they're not alone.
79 people have their hand up right now, 80, 84.
Some people are afraid to raise their hand because they're afraid that they're going
to offend God by raising their hand.
You guys are not going to offend God.
And I'm going to prove to you right now why.
Because marriage is not your idea, it's his.
It's not your idea.
You didn't come up with it.
So let's go back to the divine design, you guys.
If you want to see divine design of the church, go to the book of Acts.
If you want to see what the church is supposed to look like, go to the book of Acts.
I know we live in a different time than the people in the book of Acts, so some things
are going to look differently.
But you'll see camaraderie there, you'll see family there, you'll see people meeting not
weekly but daily, having spiritual community and people around them that they're fellowshipping
with, that they're doing life with.
That is what the church looks like.
So if you want to see the birth of the church, go to the book of Acts.
If you want to see the birth of God's plan to have a family, because that's all God ever
wanted was a family, go to the book of Genesis.
The word Genesis means the beginning, okay?
It means the start of something.
If you want to see divine design before the curse, none of us lived before the curse,
none of us.
Well, we kind of did because we lived in God's imagination, we lived in his heart, but we
didn't live on this earth before the curse.
I had to sneeze, sorry guys.
The book of Genesis, which was written by Moses, that's right, you're like, but Moses
didn't live then.
Yeah, right, because it's prophetic writing.
Remember what I talked about, prophetic writing, when the Holy Spirit comes upon you and you
write?
Yeah.
Okay, so divine design, this is what's being challenged in these videos that are going
out to a mass audience.
This is what's being changed in these sermons that are being taught to try to spiritually
bypass someone's pain process.
And we're going to talk about that just in one second, but let's go over the three things
that I want to point out to you in your divine design.
Number one, God wanted a family.
We're all God's kids.
God wanted a family, that's what he wanted, that's what this whole thing is about.
At the end of this thing that you're having right now, this first heaven experience, this
earthly experience that you're having, you are a third heaven citizen having a first
heaven experience right now.
It's not a fever dream, it is real.
This dimension, this life that you're living in, it's important, it's important to eternity
for a lot of different reasons that I'm not going to use this Supernatural Saturday to
discuss with you, but it does have a timestamp on it.
It does have a timestamp.
So when it's over with, all it will have been about is family.
And not just your origin family, God's family, right?
So that's the first thing I want you to write down, we're God's kids, that's your divine
design.
All he wanted was a family.
You see in the book of Genesis that he was very intentional and very emotionally involved
on day six when he created his family.
The first family, Adam and Eve, they got his attention, they walked with him, they talked
with him.
He breathed his own very breath inside of them.
He made them with his hands, both of them fastened with the hands of God.
Not just the words of God, like all the other creation around us, but the hands of God.
And David, if you ever go in the Psalms and you read the Davidic Psalms, David's Psalms,
you'll see that David was a prophet.
You will see that David was able to, in his Psalms, reach back into a time that he never
lived in and also reach forward into a time that he would never see on earth.
You see him talking about the new covenant, about the New Testament church, about grace.
Guys, he lived under the law.
But you see him talking about God in a way that other people didn't talk about God.
Why is that?
He had a prophetic nature, he was a prophetic psalmist, and he was able to download that
information.
And in that information, in Psalm 139, we see that when we were created, each and every
one of us, God took the same emotionally involved intention as he did with the first family.
It says he knit you together in your mother's womb.
It says that he wrote a book about you, and in it numbered all the days of your life.
It goes on to say in another Psalm that the hairs on your head are numbered.
It goes on to say in another scripture that his thoughts of you are more numerous than
the stars in the heaven or the sand on the shores.
You need to feel that right now, because that's divine design.
You've been made in God's image.
You are his family.
Just like our children are made in our image when they come out.
Got to keep your phones muted, friends.
When they come out, they're made in the image of God, because we're made in the image of
God, but they're also made in the image of you.
The same applies to us.
If you need a picture to understand it, if you need a visual, so that's the first thing
that I want you to see and I want you to know today.
And then second, he made us male and female.
I know there's a war over gender right now.
Those folks that are transgender, they think they're transgender, they think there's some
other gender besides male and female.
There's lots of different genders to choose from.
It's becoming an absolute smorgasbord of gender out there.
And the reason why is because of separation from themselves.
Remember, at the curve, we weren't just separated from God, we were also separated from our
own identity.
And each and every one of you have been separated from your identity in some way, shape, or
form.
You're living a counterfeit right now.
And that is what the heart work is all about, is for us to continually walk in to more and
more authenticity.
And these folks, this is what it looks like for them to be separated from their identity.
A lot of them say they felt like this from the time they were born, because remember,
y'all, we're born into a curse.
It's at the new birth experience when you accept Christ that you're newborn, that you're
reborn.
Okay?
And it doesn't just stop there.
It's a process.
You have to continue to walk into more and more truth, like the scripture that I started
this with, you will know the truth and it will make you free.
Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
Okay, that's heart work.
The mind, the soul, the heart, they're all interchangeable in the word of God.
It's not talking about your brain mind, it's talking about your spirit mind.
Okay, that epicenter, that master control of information.
So the next time you go to judge someone who is walking around trying to present themselves
as the opposite gender, or they just look like they're very confused in what gender
they are, I want you to remind, I want you to be reminded of this Supernatural Saturday
and understanding that that is what separation from their identity looks like on them.
It looks different on you, and neither of you are better.
This is someone who's confused about who they are.
Because even though what I'm talking about right now was God's original plan, it was
his divine design, we all know that it got thwarted by disobedience.
So where God's kids were made in his image, all he ever wanted was a family, he made us
male and female, and he made us male and female for the sole purpose of partnership.
You guys, please get that in your head right now.
Go back and read it, Genesis 2, 23 through 25, please see that it was not good for man
to be alone, that on the sixth day when God created his family very intentionally and
very emotionally, he also saw that it was not finished, it was not perfect, it was not
complete for Adam to exist.
exist in the full image of God, I want you to get a hold of that, in the full image of
God.
What do I mean by that?
What I mean by that is that he was both the masculine and feminine of God in one vessel.
Just one of him though.
As the full image of God, both masculine and feminine, both of those natures in one vessel
and God said, no, this is not the way that this should be.
This is not good.
He needs to have a helper.
There needs to be two, not one, two.
As we exist in community, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, our creation, our family needs
to exist in community with their own kind.
We exist with our own kind.
They need to exist in their own kind.
This is how we are created in the image of the holy family of heaven.
So what did he do?
Adam had a surgery.
He removed the feminine from the masculine.
He removed the feminine and he took one of Adam's ribs, which is very significant, and
fashioned her created body out of that.
Her created body.
It signifies so much, there's so much typology in the body part that he chose to create woman.
It's in a place of protection under the arm, right?
What does that signify?
That signifying that the masculine is going to cover the feminine.
It's over the heart.
What's that signifying?
That the feminine is going to really embody the heart of God.
Does that mean that the masculine is not an emotional, creative being?
No.
Does it mean that men don't emote?
No, it doesn't mean that at all.
Not at all.
So I'm not going to go into more teaching because we have a lot to get through, and
I want to get through it this morning, but I just want you to see that he created us
very intentionally, and when he created us, he created us for each other, for him and
for each other, for partnership, for family.
He didn't say to Adam and Eve, okay, you're male and female now, now platonically exist
in this garden, just be friends, okay?
You don't need each other, you just need to like be co-laborers.
No, y'all.
He said, be fruitful and multiply.
For those of you that think sex came after the curse, it didn't.
Sex always was going to be part of the plan.
Reproduction of the family was always going to be part of the plan.
Sex just wasn't going to be burdened by all of this debauchery, okay?
Sex wasn't going to be burdened by all the evil that has come to represent.
Sex is holy, write it down.
Now the version of sex that you have had in your life may not have been very holy,
but the origin of sex, in its divine design, was created to unite and to reproduce, to
unite us, to create intimacy, and also to create children, of course.
All right, so we see that something happens in Genesis and we all know the curse came
in, disobedience came in, but I really want to encourage you because in the very next
verse Moses writes, and for this reason, what reason?
Adam just made his big speech, bone in my bone and flesh in my flesh, right?
Talking about, hey, this is my missing piece, I recognize her as part of myself.
And then Moses goes on in the next verse to say, and for this reason will a man leave
his mother and father, and they don't have any parents, and be what?
And be united or essentially reunited unto his wife and the two shall become one flesh
again.
What's happening there?
A prophecy is taking place that there's going to be a separation, but there's going to be
a reunification.
There's going to be a separation and there's going to be a reunification.
Man is going to go looking, Proverbs 18, 22, for his good thing and because of the
favor of God, he's going to find it.
And then nothing's going to separate them.
It says, let nothing separate.
It goes on to say, let nothing separate what God has put back together.
Let nothing separate this.
You guys, this is the language that we use at weddings.
Why do I know?
Because I do a lot of weddings.
This is where the language comes from.
And what is that saying right there?
It's saying, let nothing created separate what the uncreated has ordained, come on.
Let nothing separate, let nothing created separate what the uncreated has ordained.
You guys, what does that mean?
That means nothing in this first heaven.
In Romans, it talks about not being separated from the love of God by anything, no death,
no height, no principalities, no powers, no rulers, same word, y'all.
Let nothing separate what, man from woman, from their divine design to come together,
to partner, to be joined together in intimacy.
Let nothing separate that again, let nothing separate it.
That includes what?
That includes bad theology.
That includes preaching.
We have two things going on here in the world with people that have unredeemed minds.
They're trying to keep us apart, men and women, from getting married because they say it's
bad news.
They say it's dangerous.
They say that everyone's bad and feeding and you can't trust anyone and why would you ever
want to get married and it's better to stay single.
And then we see there's a war on supposed to be the redeemed side of the aisle too,
the church side, and what do they do?
And they're creating new theology on how it's holier to be single.
You know why?
Because they don't want to sit in the process of someone's pain with them anymore, so they
want to slap a scripture on something and make it spiritual.
Yes, Paul, there's a war on marriage.
There's a war on partnership.
There's a war on divine design.
And you guys, I want to remind you, we're fighting on the front lines of that, this,
not just David and I, but you guys, all of you have been called to be revivalists in
marriage and family.
God has chosen marriage as the typology of our relationship with Christ throughout the
ages to come.
It's important that people see a foreshadowing of that on earth.
You know that, right?
If kingdom people don't come together and they don't get married and they don't continue
to have children that they raise up in the truth, what is this world going to look like
in a hundred years?
I know a lot of you are like, well, Jesus is going to get us before then, but what if
he doesn't?
A day is a thousand years and a thousand years as a day to the Lord.
I'm not going to sit at the train stop with my ticket and expect the rapture train to
come through with my life.
That's not what I'm doing.
I'm living my life for my children's children's children's children.
And that is what the kingdom should be up to.
All of us.
So you guys don't let anything created ever come between you and what the uncreated has
already told you in any area of your life.
Let nothing created ever separate us from God's plan.
So I want to, I want to encourage you to be a revivalist today.
You're not just here to get married yourself.
You are here for that.
But I believe you're here to be an Isaiah 61 repairer of the breach, a restorer of paths
to dwell in.
I see some of you like, now it's not all fun and games, friends.
And this lie that's being perpetuated by religion about being single as holy, you guys, this
is as old as the hill.
In fact, Paul wrote a letter.
It's like, oh, y'all are getting a letter from Paul, right?
You got to get a letter because you're not doing things the right way over here.
He wrote about this in first Corinthians.
And once again, this is a passage of scripture that is twisted and manipulated to mean whatever
whoever's talking about it wants it to mean.
But you guys, it does have a real meaning.
If you look at the Greek, if you look it up, if you look up the words and you really dig
into the surrounding scripture and the history and what's happening with the Corinthians
at the time, you will get the correct meaning.
The Bible tells us to rightly divide the word of God, to rightly divide it.
And in this epistle, this letter that Paul is writing, he is writing to a church plant
that he has been spiritually and emotionally and physically involved with that is struggling.
because they're new converts, y'all.
And you remember when you were a new convert,
you struggled with all kinds of stuff.
And they're struggling.
And you know how they're struggling?
They're struggling because now that some of them
have converted and have accepted Christ
and they're Christ followers,
they are no longer wanting to be married to their spouses
that are unbelievers and they're not wanting to have sex.
And you guys, it makes sense.
Because just like what we live in now,
sex was not very holy.
We're talking about pagan people.
There was all kinds of sexual worship to gods
and even human sacrifices in some of these cultures
that involved sex in temples.
So like spiritual, but not.
And so all kinds of crazy stuff
that people put together with the idea of sex.
And so it made sense to them in order to follow Christ,
they were going to model after the Christ followers
that they were meeting, which one of them was Paul.
And they were gonna be single
and they were gonna be celibate because that's holier.
And I'm just gonna tell you something right now, friends.
Being celibate, okay, for those of you
that still have your V cards, your virgins,
I want to applaud you.
That's very difficult in this generation
that we're living in.
And I think that definitely should be celebrated
that you have been able to abstain
and you have been able to really trust the Lord
and lean into his power in this area of your life.
But I just wanna let you guys know
that there aren't any trophies, okay,
for burning with lust and thinking it's holy.
All right?
God's not asking you to white knuckle your way
through singleness, because Paul says right
in the scripture, it would be easier for you guys.
I see where you're getting this from people.
I understand, yes, it would be easier for you
to stay single for a lot of reasons.
And I wish that you had the gift.
Guys, he uses the word charisma.
It is the same word that would be used
for you speaking in tongues or prophesying.
You guys, it's a spiritual endowment.
It's an empowerment from heaven.
Paul is saying for him to be able to live a celibate life.
And why does it have to be spiritually empowered?
Because it's not divine design.
He had to have power from heaven
to keep his sex drive in control
and live a life married to Jesus.
God gave him that gift.
And he's saying, hey, I wish you had this gift too,
because it'd be easier for you.
Why did he say easier?
Because you guys, they were living
during a different time than us, first of all.
We have a different kind of hard than they do.
Their hard was they were persecuted.
Hey, this is a persecuted church.
People were being put to death for being Christ followers.
Arrested, you see Paul's life.
His maturity plan was not marriage and family.
It was shipwrecks and snake bites
and beatings and imprisonments.
I'm gonna choose marriage, y'all.
That sounds a little easier in our day and time.
It's not easy, but it's worth it.
Remember, I always say that.
You cannot be single in your own strength.
Yes, God gives us grace.
That word charisma is a word of grace.
God gives us a spiritual grace and empowerment
to be single during the timeframe that we are single.
You wanna know when your grace has run out?
When you're having lustful thoughts?
When you're wondering what it would be like
to be with someone and be in bed with them
and have a lover and raise a family?
And none of those things are bad things
because we have made them tawdry.
We've made them bad.
If you start imagining that,
if that is what your heart is yearning and burning for,
it is a sure sign that your grace season to be single
is coming to an end.
I know it's hard for you to believe
that there are people out there
that do not have those issues.
They do not desire those things.
And it's because they have the charisma
to live a single life,
but it doesn't make them any more holy than you.
They're not holier.
You guys, sex is not bad.
It's holy.
Just the way that a lot of people do it
is what makes it have the other reputation.
They do it in brokenness.
They do it for all the wrong reasons.
It's not about intimacy.
It's not about connection.
It's about disconnection,
is what will eventually happen
with that type of sexual activity.
So I sent out a PSA to all the married folks
on my Instagram.
And I said to them, I said,
do not.
pray for people that are single, that come to you.
Do not pray for them if you do not have the faith
for them to be married.
And if you were on Faith Friday yesterday,
you'd know that my husband covered this.
Because not all of us have the faith for the same things.
Some of us have had some really bad experiences
in certain areas of our lives, whether it's finances,
whether it's health, whether it's the death of a child
or a parent or something that we have had to walk through
that has caused us to either have faith
for someone else's deliverance, someone else's healing,
someone else's breakthrough, or not to have faith
because we're still in process of figuring out
what happened there and we're still very discouraged
by what happened, it didn't turn out the way we wanted
and our faith is low in that area, that's fine.
Or we believe something theologically that would cause us
to not be able to partner and have faith
for something someone's asking for because we believe,
because we've been taught in scripture
that they shouldn't be asking for that
and it's wrong to ask for that.
And so instead of saying to them when they say,
oh, will you pray for me to find my spouse or to be married?
Instead of saying, oh, I don't think you're allowed
to ask for that, they say things like,
they start praying stuff over you for you to be content
in your singleness and for you to accept God's will
and plan for your life.
You guys, that is poppycock.
Okay, that's not scriptural stuff.
But you have to see that it's the person
that does not have faith for that
because they either have been disappointed by that,
maybe they're unhappily married
and or they had to wait for 50 years
and so they think you have to wait for 50 years too
because they had to, so why don't you have to?
And or they just believe theologically
that that's not something that you should be asking for,
that you just need to love Jesus more.
Can I tell you that unless you have that spiritual charisma
to be single, that you are not gonna love God more
being single than being married
because being married causes you to see,
without that gift, that would help you
see God's character more.
Being married will actually teach you more
about the love of God.
Being married in a biblical kingdom marriage
will actually draw you closer to God.
It will enlarge your capacity to love.
It is a maturity plan, it is.
So you guys, please be careful of who you're asking
to pray over your dreams and not just marriage.
Make sure that that person has capacity
and has the faith to add to your faith to agree with you.
In fact, you can just ask them,
you can like them a whole lot.
They can be a good friend of yours.
They can be a prayer partner for other reasons
but you need to ask them, say,
hey, I really want this type of breakthrough.
Do you have faith for that?
Do you believe I can have that?
Do you have faith for that?
Ask them, do you have faith for it?
Do you?
And if they say, oh yeah, I believe,
oh, I believe that God can do that for you,
then let them pray with you.
And if they're like, yeah, no, I really don't.
I don't really believe that you should be asking for that
or I don't believe that you should want that.
I believe that you should just, you know,
go back in that proverbial waiting room.
God wants it for you, then, you know, he'll do it.
You guys, stay away from language like that.
That is called spiritual bypassing.
That is people making up theology
to explain why people are in pain.
And so here's where I wanted to get to
and here's the activation.
You guys, each and every one of you, including myself,
we are called to be in process with others.
We are caused to sit in that pain of process with others.
And there is a payoff.
It's hard.
You guys, God has called me to be in the pain process
with all of you during this transformation into partnership.
And it's the most rewarding thing
when people that have been in the most pain
and have, quite frankly, driven me the most crazy
with their constant negativity show up in my DMs
and say, thank you for never giving up on me.
I found the love of my life and I'm getting married.
Jesus, yes.
Because you guys, I actually have supernatural faith
that you will find your partner.
So I'm gonna use that gift.
It's a gift from the Lord.
I'm gonna continue to use it.
But trust me, it becomes tiresome in the process
when people are in pain, they're lonely, they're upset,
they're angry at God, they're offended.
They don't understand why it's taking.
too long, but I have the supernatural ability to persevere in that pain process with you
because God is empowering me to do it, not just because I'm a good person.
And you have the supernatural ability to process pain with someone else as well.
So my question to you is, who are you sitting in pain with?
Who are you contending with for the fulfillment of their promise?
And I want all of you to take the same grace that is being released upon you for the revival
of marriage and family and being able to have supernatural faith for partnership.
I'm releasing that over you.
I want you to be releasing that over people in your communities, people that you have
connection with.
If you want to bring them here and have them join up, awesome, but you all need to be releasing
that for sure.
But what else?
What else are you carrying?
You're commanded to weep with those that weep and rejoice with those that rejoice.
What are you carrying?
What agreement can you add to someone else's process so they can get breakthrough?
Who are you sitting in pain with?
Who are you in process with?
I want you to go ahead and put that in the chat.
And then very quickly, I'm going to tell you a story.
I've told it before, but a lot of you probably haven't heard it.
Early in my discipleship, very early on, there was a couple, in fact, one of the first couples
that I helped get married.
And I worked with him, and they were having a baby.
They got married, and they both had really hard backgrounds.
Both of them had been incarcerated.
Both of them had suspended driver's license.
They both came from fatherless families.
They both came from inner city neighborhoods.
They had not had a good start in life at all.
And they were radically converted, radically.
I mean, full of the love of God, supernatural, amazing conversion happened for these two
after they got married.
And it was incredible, and it was just incredible.
Remember, I'm a new believer, so I'm just amazed at how God has converted these two
and the change in them.
But you guys, they had all the same problems that they had before they met Jesus.
We do people a disservice, we say, oh, you met Jesus, everything's better now.
No, your eternal destination is for sure changed, and now you have the ability to walk and continue
to walk in newness of life.
You continue to by, you know, from faith to faith and from glory to glory, it's a process,
you guys.
Discipleship is a process.
And I didn't understand that yet.
And so they were running into all kinds of problems, and they were getting offended at
God.
And guess what?
I was sitting in their pain with them, so I was getting offended at God, too.
Do not take on someone else's offense when you're sitting in pain with them, you guys.
Make sure you don't do that.
So I was sitting there, and I was getting mad at God because nothing was going right
for these folks.
Everything was actually going wrong.
And finally, I said to God, what the heck's going on?
I thought you loved us.
You notice the word us.
I'm taking on their offense.
Now it's like, oh, you're not doing it for them, and you're not doing it for me.
You know, I don't know if I can trust you.
So remember, I don't have enough experience with him yet to really trust what he's up
to.
And this is back before the internet.
This is back before, if you didn't know a scripture, you had to have a keyword, and
good luck finding it in concordance in the back of some old Bible, figuring out where
that scripture was by some keyword like baptism or holy or whatever it was that you were looking
for to find the scripture.
And that day, Holy Spirit quoted a verse to me that I had never heard, and I'm going to
release it and end with this.
He said, if you have run with a footman, and they have wearied you, meaning that if you've
just been in a foot race, and you're tired and worn out, then how will you contend in
the day of the horse and the chariot?
If you can't even run the foot race, what are you going to do when it becomes a horse
and chariot race against you?
And then it goes on to say, and if you cannot serve me in the day of peace, then how will
you serve me in the time of war or in the rising of the Jordan is the language in some
of the translations.
So basically saying, if you can't serve me now, if you think this is bad, wait till you
see what's coming, is basically what the scripture is saying.
And God spoke to me about, their names are JJ and Angie, He said, Jackie, I have them
on a fast accelerated track to maturity.
They don't have 20 years, 30 years to walk with me in experience and gain trust for me.
They have to gain trust a lot quicker because of where I'm taking them and also what's coming.
I want to tell you guys that yeah, maybe you're not partnered yet, but your partnership is
not just about you having someone to, you know, go to farmer's markets with, and if
you're still at the childbearing age, have children with, yeah, those are all great things.
Having a companion to do life with, having someone to witness your life, these are all
important things of partnerships, but it's not just about that.
You need a partner for what's coming.
In your own trajectory, in God's plan for you, whatever that work is for the kingdom,
and then also the work that we're all to do in the kingdom while it's still day, the Bible
says.
Work while it's still day.
We all have been called for such a time as this.
Ephesians 6, 9 says that if we're not weary in doing what we know is right, we will reap
a harvest if we do not give up.
And so Lord, I just release that grace, that persevering power over your kids, but also
Lord, that Isaiah 61 mandate that they would strengthen those that are weak.
The Bible says to strengthen those that are weak, those that have become weak in their
faith, those that are about to give up.
And Ephesians 61 says that we are repairers of the breach.
We are restorers of paths to dwell in.
Jeremiah 6, 16 says that there is a good path.
You're here to point people to that path, not just to Jesus, yes, definitely.
The evangelists for the kingdom of God and for the finished work of the cross, but also
for this and other areas of your life where you have had victory or you know that your
victory is assured and it's coming soon, please, I'm asking you, do not keep that to yourself.
Give other people a reason to hope.
Tell everyone that you meet the reason why you have hope in these areas.
If you want to point them to these conversations, point them to these conversations.
But all of us have been called to not spiritually bypass the people in our lives that are sitting
in pain, but to help them process with the truth.
And so, Father God, we thank you for today.
We thank you, Lord, that there's a revival of marriage and family and that we are revivalists
and everything that is indicative of marriage and family.
By one man's disobedience, we all became sinners, but by one man's righteousness, we have all
become righteous.
By the obedience of Christ, we've come back into alignment with our original identity,
which includes relationship with you, ourselves, and others.
It includes partnership.
And so, Father, we thank you for that truth.
We stand upon that rock of truth that cannot be moved, regardless of what's trying to sway
us one way or the other.
And Lord, we ask God that you would do what you've created to do, and that is to put us
together for the purpose of your kingdom.
In Jesus' name.
Amen.
All right.
I love y'all.
