We're going to do a little bonus session tonight on something that I've been pressing into
and I think would be really helpful for our community.
And we will eventually have, you know, some more experienced teachers come.
I have some friends that actually have, you know, a book on this subject and we'll dig
in even deeper.
But I'd like to just do kind of a basic, a basic class tonight, little workshop tonight
on our times and seasons.
That sound good?
Who here did prophesy your year this last time around?
Raise your hand if you did prophesy your year.
Go ahead and keep them up.
I want to see how many people are here that actually partook of that this time around.
Please love that.
I didn't get to be there this year, but it's always a good time trying to see.
All right.
Oh, and there's a couple of you.
There's a handful of you that did it.
Okay.
Go ahead and put your hands down.
All right.
So I want to really dig into this because we believe the siege is over.
If you don't know what I'm talking about, you need to go listen to Supernatural Saturday.
I'm seeing lots of confirmations that the siege is over.
In fact, I want to encourage you, if you've tried something in the past that you really
felt led to do, you felt like there was synergy on it.
You felt like God had led you to it, whether it was making a friend or, you know, joining
a new community, but it sort of fell flat afterwards.
If you really felt like it was a supernatural connection or instruction and you did it,
you were obedient to it, and then either nothing happened or it went the opposite direction
of what you thought, raise your hand.
It just didn't do what you thought it was going to do, whatever that thing was.
You met someone, you're like, man, we're going to be best friends and then nothing.
You had a really good time with them and maybe hung out with them two or three more times
and then they fell off the face of the earth.
You haven't seen them since, you know, just things like that.
Okay.
So got a lot of hands up on that.
Someone's like pretty much everything.
Well, Nina, we're not going to get fatalistic, but here we go.
You put it and put your hands down.
Pray about trying whatever that is again.
So for me, I have been carrying a promise for 15 plus years that has been confirmed
over and over and over again, a word over my life that I was going to have my own TV
show.
Now, I used to work in television.
For those of you that know my background, I was an executive in television.
I was a general manager of a TV network in Ohio.
I've been on TV, I've been on the Steve Harvey show.
I've done a lot of different things and I know what it takes to be in television.
I know that it's a very, it's not a glamorous situation.
It's a lot of hard work.
It's a hard work situation.
And so this is what I don't want you to do.
Just because something is not in its timing or there's a siege against it, I don't want
you to say to yourself, oh, I must have missed it.
That must not have been God.
Now, I do believe that words have expiration dates, meaning that if something hasn't happened
in 20 years that God told you was going to happen, you may want to take that word back
to him and exchange it for a more modern version of that word.
Because as you and I both know, I got that word 15 years ago, but broadcast television
is not a thing anymore.
But there is a version of TV, right?
The things that we watch on the box in our living room or in our bedroom, and it's streaming
now.
That's what it is now.
It's streaming, isn't it?
But that word got confirmed.
People that didn't even know me would have dreams about this television show that was
my show, and they would come up to me and be like, oh my gosh, I had a dream about you.
You're on this television show.
It was your show, and this is what was happening.
So so many different confirmations of that word.
Then I want to tell you this, that in the last couple years, I have been signed to not
just one, but two, three TV contracts.
TV production contracts.
I've signed for television development contracts.
And every single time.
They didn't go anywhere.
And they didn't go anywhere because there was a strike in Hollywood.
So the first time around, there was a situation where it was more of a Christian television
situation and I didn't really want to do it, and so I was really thankful that it didn't
go anywhere.
But the television network, the Christian television network that wanted me to do a
show, it went belly up.
The person that owned it, you guys remember TBN, you remember Jan Crouch, and then she
died and all the stuff.
So that was all that era of stuff.
So it's just like, oh, well, the TV network that I was supposed to go on, the person died.
And then the people that took it over, they kind of revamped it.
They were trying to keep it, actually four times, you guys.
And then another Christian TV network called God TV wanted me to do something with them.
And then they, what happened with them?
Something financial happened with them as well.
I'm trying to remember what it was.
This has been a few years ago.
And then I was in two secular television contracts with a really popular production studio that
has produced a lot of, in fact, they won South by Southwest Film Festival a couple years
ago.
And both of those contracts, those were two different production companies.
Both of those contracts ended up expiring.
I was in a contract for a certain amount of time to develop the show and then to get it
in pilot and then to get it shopped to the networks.
And both those contracts ended up expiring before that whole thing could happen because
the first time Hollywood writers were on strike.
And so none of the networks were buying any television shows.
And the second time, the Hollywood teamsters, so the truck drivers, the people in charge
of sets and grips and cameramen and all them, they were on strike the second time around.
So once again, Hollywood studios were not buying any, any shows.
So both of those contracts timed out.
They both timed out.
Now just recently in June of this year, I had another TV person approach me and say,
you need to be on reality TV.
You know, this is the first person that actually pitched me a show that I really liked the
sound of that the studio is here in Austin.
It's a popular studio.
They just got done making a movie with Matthew McConaughey.
It's legit.
It's the real deal.
I was on the phone with them for an hour and a half in June, talking to them about this
potential project.
And then they fell off the face of the earth.
So just like the other things, like every time I would try to contact the agency, just
crickets.
And I was like, okay, and you guys, you know what we're tempted to do when these things
happen?
Well, it must not have been God.
I must be being God defended this.
You know, I must be dodging a bullet somehow.
We try to make sense of rejection and oftentimes rejection is divine.
I will agree with you in that, but I have this 15 year old word and it doesn't have
to be with them.
But then if it never comes true and it's always shut down, you got to start looking at warfare.
I have a word.
It's been established to the mouth of two or three or four or five or 10 or 50 witnesses
that don't know each other.
And it continues to come back around more and more and more.
And let's just face it, y'all.
I was born to be on TV.
We can say it.
I can say it.
You can say it.
We all know it's true.
All right.
Regardless of what kind of television it is, we know that I belong there and I'm going
to be there.
Okay.
Never was a dream of mine before the Lord gave it to me.
And now it's there and it's still alive.
And that's the other clue that I have.
The dream doesn't die.
It's still there.
It's still alive.
And if I go there, guess what?
A lot of more singles come here and that's what we want.
Don't we?
All right.
So I was praying the other night, just a couple of nights ago, because remember the siege
is over.
That Hollywood stuff, those strikes, all that stuff, that's siege stuff because those contracts
kept timing out.
This person that I talked to in June that's here in town, the production studio that's
here in town, I don't know if you guys know this because you're probably not really into
the Hollywood thing, but Matthew McConaughey lives here in Austin and he has made a huge
deal about moving all kinds of Hollywood industry to Austin.
So we have huge production studios.
We have a lot just like in Hollywood, you know, like the MGM lot and the Sony studios
and all that.
That's here in Austin.
We have a huge piece of land out East, kind of near Elon Musk's Tesla and his rocket science
place and all that stuff.
There's big production studios and lots out there.
And he went to the government and said, hey, we want funding for Austin to bring industry
to Austin, specifically in the area of arts and entertainment.
And he got it.
Did you guys see the news that he got that $300 million grant or whatever it was?
And so it's not an accident that I live here and that God told me to move here eight years
ago.
So all that being said, I really liked these producers
that I met in June, and I met them through a friend.
You guys, I have never once knocked on one door
about this promise.
I have not tried to make it happen at all.
It just keeps coming around to me.
All those TV contracts, they came to me.
I didn't go to them.
This person called me, said,
hey, I heard about you from a friend of mine.
They said, I really needed to check you out,
that we should do a pilot with you, blah, blah, blah.
And then crickets, from June to now, end of October.
I'm sitting there and I'm like, God, I really liked them.
And that lady actually was a Christian
working in this industry.
And I really liked what she said about Christian dating
and matchmaking and how she thought
that I actually could make a go of that as a show
and not have to just be a regular matchmaker
and that we could actually do something
with the Christian niche.
And I was just praying about this.
And this is what God said to me.
He said, is the siege over?
And I said, well, yes, yes, it is.
And he said, try again.
Guys, I have tried to contact them
at least a handful of times since June
to try to follow up.
I haven't gotten a response.
Last night at 11.20 at night,
I sent a message to the lady
that is the owner of that agency
and just said, hey, my book,
Modern Dating Sucks is about to come out.
I was really excited about our previous conversation.
You know, I would love to follow up again.
Now I have, once again, I have,
I've reached out a handful of times with no response.
I got an immediate response saying,
I was just thinking about you
and I'm gonna be in Austin on Wednesday.
Can we get together?
Come on, the siege is over.
Now, will it be the right production studio?
I have no idea,
but I still believe that that is going to come true.
And all of you have things like that,
things that you've tried to do.
Maybe it's just lose weight.
I hope that you don't have to lose it
the way that I lost it,
but I couldn't lose one pound, not one pound.
And then I had the situation with,
we think it was my gallbladder.
I don't know because I was healed,
whatever it was,
but it was two and a half months
of not being able to eat normally.
And I lost 24 pounds.
So that's the Romans 8.28 of that moment.
Whatever works, right?
Whatever works, Lord.
Fasting and calorie deficit
apparently does work to lose weight.
So go for it.
Maybe you should do a little bit of a fast.
I always tell my husband,
he never thought he could fast before
and he just recently started fasting.
Your boy, David's been fasting
and he never thought he could do it before.
He's like, babe,
I can't make it through a whole day without eating.
And I would say, your God is your belly.
And then we would have a good laugh
and go on with our lives.
Even just intermittent fasting, friends,
where you don't eat until like noon
and then you eat in a small window of time
and you stay under a certain calorie count.
Now it doesn't work if you,
in those four to six hours of eating window,
you literally ate 8,000 calories.
You probably shouldn't do that.
But yeah.
Anyway, I wanted to just say that to you guys
because it's really important.
I know I'm not the only one.
Say that to you guys,
because it's really important to not only believe
what God has spoken over you.
God has given me a lot of words
and I want to tell you something.
I'm a good steward of God's words.
If he gives them to me,
I don't just, I'm not willy nilly with them.
I write them down.
I pray about them.
I ask God for confirmations of them.
I try to steward them the best I can.
I'm not going to go out and try to make it happen,
but I'm also going to see
if there's a natural part that needs to be done
so that God can put his super on my natural.
He's got to have something to put his super on.
So we've got to do our part so he can do his part, right?
Nod yes.
It's true.
It's scriptural.
And to him who is able to exceedingly,
abundantly evolve all we can ask,
think, or imagine by the power that what?
Works through us.
Don't forget that part of the scripture.
By the power that works through us.
Through us.
Okay.
Is anyone feeling excited or encouraged?
We're seeing shifts.
We're seeing the siege ending.
We're seeing things happen.
So whatever it is that you tried
and you just really didn't get the kind of results
that you expected, whatever it was,
maybe you put in for that promotion and you got denied.
And I'm not saying you should be promoted at the job
you work at now because maybe you need a better job.
But all I'm saying is try again.
Try again.
The shenanigans have already begun.
And Crystal, this is the shenanigans, don't you know?
Okay.
I'm just looking through,
I'm looking through your comments to see who's up to what
and doing whatever they're doing.
Okay.
Okay, so we're gonna try again
because we believe the siege is over
and we believe we can have a different result.
All right, I wanna jump into talking about
some of the things and activating you guys
on some times and season steps right now.
Steps right now.
Okay, now I want everyone to close your eyes if you can.
And ask Holy Spirit to show you a picture,
a word, a feeling that represents
the current season that you're in.
And of course, we're talking about
summer, fall, winter, spring.
Just ask Holy Spirit to show you.
You might see a hybrid of two different seasons.
Like you might see late summer, early fall.
You might see, you know, late winter, early spring.
You might see spring turning into summer.
You might see a hybrid,
but go ahead and ask Holy Spirit to show you
and ask what season am I in
and what are you cultivating in me right now?
Go ahead and ask that.
You might see yourself planting some seeds.
That would be a springtime kind of idea.
You might see tall sunflowers.
That would be like a summer type of idea.
Maybe you're pruning some vines.
Maybe the leaves have turned golden and red.
Okay, go ahead and put those answers in the chat.
Go ahead and put those things that you saw in the chat.
And if you didn't see anything,
just press in for the rest of our time together.
You might see something.
Might see something tonight.
Might see something tomorrow.
I know some of you are like,
I see winter and I hate winter.
I feel you, but you don't hate winter.
You hate cold.
You might not like the cold,
but winter is a beautiful time of rest.
It's when everything's getting a rest.
Winter is a depiction of purity.
I wanna reframe winter for you
because all of you are like,
winter's when things are dead.
No, winter's when things are resting.
Winter is when things get purified.
Winter is when a lot of celebration happens.
I mean, winter is when we in America
celebrate Christmas, right?
That's when we celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas.
It's when we gather together family.
When I think of winter,
I think of cozy nights and fireplaces
and cuddling up and being with the ones that you love.
I think of twinkly lights and I think of rest
and things being purified
and things getting a chance to have a blank slate
so that God can write on those things
and a new season can begin.
It's kind of like a reset.
It's a beautiful time of reset.
All right.
Continue to put your answers there in the chat.
And then on your paper,
I want you to write whatever you saw
and just say,
God, what are you teaching me in this current season?
And just take a couple of minutes to write that down.
Friends, we want to walk well
in whatever season we're in right now.
You can't change a season just because you don't like it.
Trust me, I've tried.
So we don't want to fight with God's time.
We want to flow with it.
We don't want to fight with God's timing.
We want to flow with God's timing.
There's always something beautiful in every season.
There's always an assignment in every season.
There's always a treasure in every season.
Now, we're gonna define season
as an overarching period of time,
like summer, fall, winter, spring.
But when I talk about time in just a few minutes,
it's about a moment in that season.
Does that make sense to everyone?
The season is the umbrella,
but the time is a moment within there.
So for instance, winter, but Christmas day or Christmas,
it's time within the season.
God, what are you teaching me?
Is the question, Lori.
What are you teaching me in the season that I just saw?
The season that I'm currently in, what am I being taught?
What am I being taught in the season that I'm currently in?
I'm just gonna read some bullet points
from the different seasons as you guys finish that up.
The fall season is characteristic of reaping,
sowing, seeing the results of sowing,
so harvest, letting go of old mindsets
because there's pruning happening.
Maybe you're planning forward.
A lot of planning happens in the fall.
Right now, we're in fall here in America,
and it's also fourth quarter for a lot of businesses.
And so what are we doing in our businesses?
We're planning for next year.
So there's a lot of planning that happens
in this season of life for the next season.
And so if you saw the fall season when you closed your eyes,
celebrate what God has done, give thanks,
and begin to press in and plan with God
what this next season is going to look like.
You're in a harvest season right now.
Ask God what needs to happen
with the resources that are coming in.
Ask him what you can do differently in the next season
to have an even better and bigger harvest.
If you saw wintertime,
the characteristics of winter is rest and renewal.
There's a lot of hidden growth.
You can't see it, it's hidden,
but there are things that are growing.
There is a deep under the ground.
There's a slower pace.
There's a lot of internal restoration happening
when there's a winter season.
You may feel really, really hidden
in the season that you're in.
If you feel like you're in a winter season,
you may feel less visible, less active.
Maybe your external process and progress,
the things that are happening outside,
you're like that iceberg, right?
You can see the tip of it,
but there's so much going on underneath the surface.
You're in an iceberg type of season.
Makes sense to everyone?
You can only see this,
and yet there's so much happening under the surface
that you cannot see.
A lot of internal change happening in winter seasons.
And so what do we do?
And so what do we wanna do?
We wanna embrace that rest.
Trust me, I took a sabbatical.
It's not easy to rest if you're not a rester,
but you wanna embrace rest.
You wanna allow God to renew you.
You wanna allow God to prepare you for what's next.
If you saw that spring season,
that's usually a new beginnings type of motif,
new ideas, fresh starts, sewing.
We can't have a spring without a winter though, friends.
So those of you that are a winter,
don't fight against your season
just to understand that spring is a coming,
and it could come next week.
If you live where I live,
there is no differentiation between the seasons.
It's like, oh, today's fall.
No, it's not.
No, it's summer again.
No, it's fall.
No, it's summer.
It's really perpetually summer.
And some of you all live where it's always cold.
It's like Narnia.
It's always winter, but it's never Christmas.
That's a problem.
For those of you that have never read C.S. Lewis,
now you're gonna wanna go read that book,
The Chronicles of Narnia, because that's a direct quote.
All right.
I love me some literature.
All right, so spring.
You might feel a stirring for something new.
You might be planting seeds.
Remember, those seeds are not gonna grow up overnight.
If you're in a spring season,
you're not gonna probably see anything
from your due diligence until harvest, and that's okay.
You're not gonna have anything to harvest
if you don't.
in the spring. You got to sow in the spring. And if you want a better harvest, next time
you're in a harvest season, make sure that you're sowing. We want to be sowing, friends.
And I'm not talking about money. A lot of you will religialize that and be like, oh,
I got to give money. No, I'm talking about sowing, sowing into yourself. I remember I
felt God prompting me to go back to broadcasting school, to go back to school for TV. This was
when I was in my early 30s. I'm 50 now. And I didn't want to spend the time because I felt old.
I don't want to be in a class with 22 year olds when I'm in my 30s. I don't want to do that. I
should be past that by now. Why do I have to go back to school, God? I don't want to spend that
time. And then I would count the cost. I would say, if I'm going to be in school for five years,
I'm not going to graduate until I'm this amount old. Anyone else ever do that?
You really feel like you need to go and invest in yourself, maybe take some classes, some courses,
maybe go back to school for something. But you just can't get over the fact that by the time
you graduate, according to the syllabus or the curriculum of that schooling, you'll be this
many years old. Can I tell you something? The time is going to pass anyway. The time is going to pass
anyway. You're going to be that many years old anyway, whether it's 48 or 52 or maybe it's 60.
It doesn't matter. The time is going to pass anyway.
But you're not going to have anything to show for it because you didn't sew into it.
That's a word for somebody. You better get a hold of it.
Something's been on your heart to do and you're like, I can't do that because I don't want to
waste my time. It's not a waste of time if there's a harvest connected to it. And God can accelerate it.
You could end up actually working in that industry before you even graduate. You could
have favor and you can end up, you know, getting some kind of really cool internship or who knows
what can happen. I really want to encourage you that if you're in a spring season, new beginnings
require endings, first of all. So there's some things in your life that have to end so that
other things can live and begin, but you're going to have to sew in that season.
I'm sassy, sexy and smart. Thank you, Nora. I like it. Unless you're talking to a different Jackie.
And then I'm going to take that word for myself too. Sassy, smart, sexy. Okay. All right.
So friends, don't ever be afraid to sew into your time, to use your time. You have one and only life.
It's your one and only life. And if you don't like what you're doing now and what you want to do
requires some sort of specialized training, then you best get on it.
That means that you're in a spring season. You got to get that going. All right. And then the
application in our spring season is to step out in faith, to begin whatever that is that you want to
sew into those projects, that schooling, whatever it is, launch what's been in your heart. That's
important. And then for those of you that saw summertime, this is like a peak productivity
season. This is where everything's really growing. It's growing fast because it has all the right
elements to grow. It's maturing. The things that you've sewn in the spring are now maturing. You're
actually starting to see evidence of the fruit that's coming in your life. You're active. You're
tending to what's been planted. You're stewarding it. You're stewarding it well. So just stay
consistent in the season. Guard your heart. Guard the work of your heart. Celebrate your milestones.
Always celebrate. I'm really guilty of not doing this. If I have accomplishments, I've been working
really hard towards things, and then I start to see fruit. Instead of celebrating that fruit and just
taking a beat, taking some pause and time to celebrate, instead of doing that, I'm just running
off to sew into the next thing. So that's why it was so great that we had the five-year anniversary
party, because I actually took a beat to celebrate where we've come from and where we're going next.
So letting go of the old. If you're transitioning between seasons,
then it's important for you to let go of the old, prepare for the new.
It's the ambiguous timing. You have no idea when the new is going to fully be here. It's okay.
You don't have to know the full timeline. You just have to be obedient to the idea of letting go,
pruning, purging, making room, close doors, and then let go of the old.
Pruning, purging, making room, close doors so that other doors can be opening.
If you sense change is coming, raise your hand if you sense change is coming.
Let's see the hands of people that sense change is coming.
Change is on the horizon.
You feel the winds of change blowing regardless of what season you saw.
You sense the change of wind, the winds of change blowing.
Okay.
Lots of people are sensing those winds of change, lots and lots of people.
So what you do when you sense that something is about to end, because that means if change
is coming, that means there's endings.
New beginnings require endings.
And so what you can do to steward that feeling of change that's coming, even though you don't
know what the change is and you don't know when the change is going to fully be here,
what you can do is, is you can release some things.
You can prune some things.
You can make some room for whatever that change is blowing in, whatever those winds are blowing
to you, preemptively.
Makes sense to everyone?
You can preemptively make space.
Your prayers can make space by saying, here I am, God, send me.
Now, position yourself spiritually to receive what's coming, even if you don't know what
it is.
Crystal did that.
God threw a bunch of babies in her arms.
Look at her with those.
She on here still with babies?
Every time I see her, she's bouncing a different baby.
Oh, there it is.
The baby's sleeping.
Hi, baby.
Hi, little baby.
But she did that.
She preemptively made space for that.
And then one day, she just got a phone call, and there they were, literally.
Okay.
All right.
Let's do some identity questions next.
So get your paper and pen out if you can.
Some of you are holding babies.
That's okay.
I want you to answer this question.
Where have I come from, and where am I going?
Where have I come from?
Just recently, not like 15 years ago.
Where have I just come from?
So, like, say you just walked in the door, and I see you.
You came in the door, and I said, oh, hey, where'd you just come from?
Where have you just come from, and where are you headed?
Not 20 years from now.
Right now.
Where have you come from, and where are you going?
I give you a couple seconds for that.
Okay.
Does anyone want to unmute and say where they came from and where they're going?
I will, Jackie.
Go ahead.
I am coming from a long wilderness season, and then God gave me a path towards like a
kingdom, a village.
So I'm headed to the promise fulfilled, the words vibrancy, life, fullness, where there's
one stagnation, there will be now life.
Okay.
So she's been in a long barren season, desert season, wilderness season, and she's headed
towards life, community, village, promised land.
Who else?
I'll go.
I am from a long wilderness season, and then God gave me a path towards like a kingdom,
I'll go.
I came from a season of many decades of brokenness because I thought I'd always be single, and
now I'm in the season of complete hope because I believe through the healing God is bringing
my man.
Right.
So she's been a season of brokenness, hopelessness, and now she's in a season of hope.
She's in a season of rising, right?
It's been in a low season and now she's coming into a high season.
So that's good.
That's exciting.
Do you guys have your hands up to share?
Is that why you have your hands up?
Or just, are they up from before?
Cause I don't know who to call on.
Who wants to go next?
I do.
Okay, go ahead.
Okay.
I come from years and years of working and getting to a point of being
completely debt-free, have no obligations and reaping the benefits.
I'm going into reaping the benefits and going to a higher area of, it's
like the grand champion of quilting and teaching in a Asilomar, Monterey,
California from people that are flying in from all over the world.
So I'm, and I get to be me fully using my voice and who I am and not be quiet
anymore, and I'm learning how to do that and to love myself.
So I'm super happy.
Wow.
That's a lot.
That's great.
Do you guys hear what she said?
Like the grand champion of quilting.
Did you hear that?
That's the thing.
And so my next question for you is what's in your hand?
Where are you going from?
Where are you coming from?
Where are you going?
And what's in your hand?
Gwen just told us what's in her hand is some quilting needles, some quilting things.
You know, I don't even know what they're called cause I don't quilt, but I do know
this, I know that that is a very unique situation that God has given to her that
she's passionate about and obviously very good at since she's the grand champion.
And it has caused her to have a place of influence with people, people that do that,
people that are interested in that, and they're coming from all over.
Is that amazing?
So where are you going from?
I'm going to add this.
I'm going to let you guys share, but I'm going to add, I'm adding this tidbit.
Where'd you come from?
Where'd you go?
Where'd you come from?
Cotton Eye Joe.
Just kidding.
That's in my head.
I just don't know what happened.
It had to come out.
Where are you coming from?
Where are you going?
And what do you have in your hand?
What do you have?
What do you have in your hand?
Right.
Who wants to go?
Congratulations, Gwen.
That's awesome, Gwen.
Okay.
Who, go ahead, go.
I don't know who that is.
This is Jennifer.
I'm coming, I'll read what I wrote in the chat.
I'm coming from desolation and drought and forced layers of survival.
Um, I saw like a layer, like a house that kept having like siding layered on,
layered over, layered over, but I'm going to the foundation in this season,
the foundation of the house.
Um, I'm going to the core of my truth and this season is about
authenticity only and nothing unaligned.
Yes.
What's in your hand?
Oh, I saw a gold egg.
I don't know what that means, but I'll pray about it.
All gold egg in her hand.
Um, you know what I saw when you just said that?
I saw, um, I saw really ugly, um, really ugly.
You were talking about siding, but I saw really ugly, trendy from past, past
seasons, flooring that was covering up beautiful hardwood and what I hear the
Lord saying is, is that, you know, trends come and go, but authentic will always
be in style, the real deal will always be in style.
And what was, you know, trendy in a past season is garish now.
Um, but as we peel those things back, you know, what other people thought was
beautiful and what other people thought was good, um, there's going to be the
real, the raw under there, and it's going to be beautiful and authentic.
And that is who you are.
That is you.
So peeling back, you know, the trend and peeling back what other people want or
what other people thought was good or beautiful or valuable and just getting
down to the authentic, beautiful, gorgeous, timeless you.
Hopefully that resonates with you.
Amen.
I receive it.
Amen.
Okay, honey.
All right.
I receive it with you.
All right.
Who else?
Where are you coming from?
Where are you going?
What is in your hand?
I'll go next.
Um,
wait, wait, David, David, before you go next, I want to say this.
I'm going to add another one.
So where are you coming from?
Where are you going?
What's in your hand and what feels out of sync?
What doesn't fit?
I'll give you a second since I'm sorry.
It's okay.
Cause I'm adding that everyone else.
I'm going to add that.
So those four things, where are you coming from?
Where are you going?
What's in your hand and what feels like it doesn't fit anymore?
Like what feels out of sync with where you're going?
Okay.
So I'm, I'm ready.
I'm coming from a season of being scared of the past, specifically
being scared of getting physically assaulted again, or being in a
relationship where the person will be physically.
abusive again. And coming from just fear of rejection, but being rejected because of my
learning disabilities. Where am I going? Or where am I headed? I think headed to green pastures.
And so I just saw this field of like, it was a harvest, but it was a harvest full of vegetables,
but they were all gold. And so what's in my hand is like a pickaxe to harvest the gold vegetables,
or the gold harvest. And so I saw my little garden in the back, but all of my vegetables
and my crop was huge, but it was filled with gold. I think what doesn't fit is, I think I
am wearing clothes that don't fit. And I think the relationship I'm in doesn't fit. And I think,
yeah, I think being messy and being and allowing myself to be messy isn't working.
Okay. All right. So he sees something that's out of alignment, doesn't fit,
doesn't fit the vision that God's giving him right now. This is a really good way to figure
out what needs to be pruned. If you really sit with Holy Spirit, where am I coming from? Where
am I going? What's in my hand? And also what feels out of sync when I'm looking at this?
So that's good. Thank you for sharing that vulnerability. Appreciate that, David. Who else?
I can go. So I'm coming out of a season of being really discontent with where I'm at
into a season of contentment. What I'd seen in my hand was actually a bunch of keys for doors,
and there was lots of them and lots of opportunity. But I heard that I need to use the keys to open
the door or else the keys are useless. And then what felt out of sync was certain friendships.
Okay. All right. So coming, going, keys, doors, got to use the keys. Otherwise,
why have them? And then you see some relationships,
specifically friendships, that just don't fit this season. What are you going to do about that?
What are you going to do about that? Not continue them.
Okay. Well, you guys, we need to leave things better than we found them. And we don't have
to pick fights with things to leave them. David also said that the clothes he's wearing
represent relationship, that he doesn't feel fit. And so I just want to really encourage all of you
that it's okay. It's okay when there needs to be an ending. New beginnings require endings.
It's okay when there needs to be an ending for us to just say, this isn't working for me anymore.
Like this isn't working. This doesn't feel healthy. It doesn't feel good for me. It doesn't
feel good for you. If it's a community, if it's a job that you're quitting, if it's a friendship
that you're leaving, saying that it's not just about you. That's why I hate the phrase that
says, this isn't serving me anymore, because we're not here to be served. We're here to serve.
And so it's not about you being served, but it is about whether something fits the assignment
or whether something is working for what it is that God has you doing. And so it's important to
say, Hey, you know, this just isn't right. It just doesn't feel right. And I'm freeing you. I'm
freeing myself. You know, when you go in to put your two weeks notice into your job, just say,
Hey, you know, I'm doing you a favor, because I'm not passionate about this. And you need people
working for you that are passionate. Try that when you quit your job. Instead of saying,
you would take this job and shove it. You don't want to do don't do that one.
All right, I'm going to add something else. Let's see.
Mm hmm.
All right, let's do this activation. All right.
You guys always know that I say that regardless of what season you're in,
if you have sown a lot in past seasons, then there is something that's ripe and ready in your
life. And oftentimes we focus on what we're going to sow and not really on what we're going to reap.
And so I want you to finish this sentence.
In this season, I'm planting blank.
Or in this season, I'm harvesting blank.
I want you to write down the answer to that.
And you can put down the area of your life that you're planting something new in,
the area of your life where you're reaping what's already been sown.
Could be love, finances, ministry, friendships, relationships, community,
whatever it is that you're planting blank in your life.
community, family, it doesn't matter what it is.
And I want you to write down the answer to that.
So ask yourself, what's one seed you need to plant in faith
And you can put down the area of your life that you're planting something new in,
if you're in a planting season?
If you're in any kind of reaping season,
what's one harvest that you need to celebrate
or steward well?
So in this season, I'm planting blank
or in this season, I'm harvesting blank.
Go ahead and do one of those.
And when someone has something and they want to share,
go ahead and unmute yourself so we can get moving forward.
I want to take some shares.
I think I would like to share.
So just not the other questions, just the harvesting
or the reaping part.
OK.
Is that what we're doing or not?
We can, you can share from any of the above.
If you want to share where you're going, where you're
coming from, where you're going.
I'm coming out of a winter, coming
out of a winter of desolation for 20 years
where I have done a lot of the work, the heartwork
and the grief share and recovery work.
I moved to California where God called me for a new beginning.
And then moving into the spring because
of being engaged in Paris and planning
a wedding for Valentine's Day.
By the way, congratulations.
I saw that.
Now, is this the guy that we had to put some boundaries up with?
Yes.
Sometimes that's what it takes.
I know it was.
As we said, you'll either come back around and give you
what you need or it'll be over.
Exactly.
All right, keep going.
So that was a big part of that was
as far as the work in the season was me
putting God in front of a man.
I used to always put a man before God.
And if I didn't have that man, I felt lost without it.
And so being willing to give something up
that I thought God had given me and to continue
to look to God for what he had for me.
And so I just feel really grateful
because he's totally stepped up now, planned that trip,
proposed.
We're getting married on Valentine's Day in Hawaii
with all of our grown children there.
And it just seems like this is God gave me
this desire in my heart, Jackie.
When I first heard you speak about the desire in my heart,
and that wasn't a bad thing that I wanted to be married again
and didn't want to be alone.
I always felt kind of ashamed of that.
Like, why should I want this?
I'm an independent, strong woman.
I'm doing fine on my own.
And the words that I learned from you were so much of that.
And then speaking of Song of Solomons
and this being alone and the hardening.
But God has come alongside of me and he's helping me
with the foxes in the garden.
What's the one thing that doesn't fit in this season?
What's the one thing that doesn't fit?
But the one thing that doesn't fit is I came home super sick.
And I've been really doing a lot of health stuff.
And I had a hip replacement.
And I can walk 16,000 steps again.
But I spent two and a half weeks being totally in bed.
And right now, I'm just struggling
to get back into energy and to be able to eat regularly
because I was on a lot of prednisone
and a lot of other medications that
made me want to eat everything.
And I'm still feeling I'm struggling with that.
So that's the one thing that doesn't fit right now.
Next week, I'm starting back with my trainer
and my physical therapy.
So I'm hoping that putting some action to this
will help to turn that around because I feel really unhealthy.
If what's happening in your body doesn't fit the season,
doesn't fit the blessings and breakthrough that's
happening for your soul and spirit,
then let's call it warfare.
And yeah, let's call it warfare if it doesn't fit
because you're in a celebration season.
You're in a summer season.
You're in a celebration, full-blown fruit,
summer going into harvest, going into fall.
And so let's ask God to rebuke the devourer.
And you do what you know to do.
Get with your trainer.
Start moving.
Start moving your body like a healthy person that you are.
Start moving your body and doing the things
that healthy people do.
And let's see if that all just breaks off and falls off.
Yeah.
OK?
Yeah, that's a good question.
Congratulations.
I'm so proud of you.
You were willing to let go of what wasn't right for you.
And look at what happened.
Look at what happened.
I remember those loveseat calls where
it was very difficult for you to cut that off and then move on.
But you did it.
Yeah, it was really hard.
And so thank you for you and your team.
This place has been such a blessing for me.
Thank you.
Yes, you're welcome.
Of course.
It's our pleasure.
Your harvest is our harvest.
And so we're so thankful.
All right, so let's answer the question.
I've been wanting to actually congratulate her and I wasn't sure if it was the same situation
or if God brought something new speedily, but I'm so excited and that's great.
So in the season I'm planting blank or I'm harvesting blank, who wants to answer that
question?
Oops, I scared the baby.
Actually when you first asked the questions downstairs about the seasons, I didn't get
a picture of a season.
I just got, the Lord said you're planting and then you asked, I don't know further along,
but then you asked this question and the Lord had given me the answer at the beginning
already.
So I just got planting and he was like, you're planting selfless love.
Yes you are.
Look at you with that baby.
Praise God.
All right.
That's awesome.
I love it.
Who else wants to share?
Come on you guys.
Let's get some fast shares here.
I'm planting or I'm harvesting.
What?
Blank.
Fill in the blank.
I'm planting and harvesting gold.
Yeah, you are.
Cause you saw all the gold.
And to me, gold is something that's been tried in the fire.
It's been tried.
It's been true.
When you said what you said about all the big fruit, I thought about John 15 about being
connected to the vine, being connected to the branch, being connected to the vine and
bearing much fruit.
And then of course that gold fruit is the fruit that has been tried in the fire, our
faith.
So fruit that's, you know, created from faithful, from faithfulness.
And then of course we all know that, and gold is, is precious and it is powerful.
And I love that depiction of big gold fruit.
It's good.
And you're even finding gold in real life, which has been cool.
So I know that's right.
He's been finding gold in real life.
You guys, if you hadn't hear, just briefly, just briefly, I don't think the ladies heard.
I think you told the guys just briefly tell them what happened.
Yeah.
So the Lord told me, gave me a word saying on Monday, I'm going to give you gold.
I'm going to give you like a box of gold.
And I thought, Oh, that meant like in men's ministry, I would be receiving some, you know,
some really good wisdom.
But on Monday I actually found an entire box in a storage locker full with gold.
So like gold rings, gold necklaces.
He bought the, you know, how people abandon their storage unit.
So he bought the storage locker.
You never know what's going to be in there.
And in his was a box of gold.
Yeah.
Isn't that crazy?
The siege is over.
God told him the word and immediately the word was executed.
That's another thing.
Friends, that's another thing.
I'm seeing there'd be no delay between God saying something and it manifesting.
Like I'm seeing that I'm seeing that happen.
I'll talk more about that on Supernatural Saturday.
I don't want to, I don't want to, I don't want to ruin Supernatural Saturday.
Okay.
So you guys, we can build on all of this.
Some of you like crystal may not feel really that in tune with one of the prompts, but
then another prompt you feel really in tune to.
That's fine.
If you didn't see a season when we closed our eyes, that's okay.
But then once again, when we said some of these other things, some of these other activations,
then you did feel something or you saw something, whatever.
You don't have to feel something every single time.
So I'm going to give, I'm going to give some, some more, some more direction here.
So those of you that really haven't been really plugged in yet, let's go ahead and do a couple
more activations.
All right.
Fill in the blank.
It's time for me to blank.
It's time for me to let go.
It's time for me to rest.
It's time for me to speak up.
It's time for me to what?
Ecclesiastes tells us there's a time for everything under heaven.
Time to be born, a time to die, time to tear down, a time to build, a time to mourn, a
time to dance.
It's time for me to dance?
What?
What is your thing?
You can put it in the chat, but also I want to take some shares.
Who's willing to share?
It's a time for you to what?
Who knows?
I'll share.
I'll do mine too.
I'm going to do mine too.
Are you going to let you go first and then I'll do mine?
It's time.
I heard.
Go ahead.
Sarah and Stephanie.
Go ahead.
Either one.
I'll go.
I heard it's time for me to come out of my shell.
Yes.
And I saw you at the party and you're beautiful and I think you're coming out of your shell.
I think that.
I think you are.
I could tell that you were a little bit more introverted, but I think that you were making
bold moves and you were meeting new people.
And I think that's great.
So you have a, you, you are a beautiful and intelligent woman and coming out of your shell.
I love it.
Sarah, what do you got?
Give me time for me to let go of past relationships
and make room for new ones.
I love that.
And I want both of you, Sarah and Stephanie,
what does that look like?
So Stephanie, what does it look like
to come out of your shell?
I want you to write down some practical ways
that you're gonna activate that, okay?
Same with you, Sarah.
What's it look like to let go of relationships,
to leave them better than you found them?
Remember, we're not picking fights
with things to leave them.
But what does that look like?
And what does it look like
to begin to engage new relationships?
That's important.
I just told you guys that I would share mine.
I know it's gonna sound really funny to you guys
because you always see me here on Zoom
and I'm usually the teacher.
So I'm like on the Zoom stage teaching you guys.
But it's time for me to be seen.
And the reason why I say that is
if you follow me on social media,
you notice that I really never go live.
I don't do anything publicly.
And it's easy for me to do this in here
because this is private.
These are private groups.
And you are the beautiful clients and students
that I serve day in and day out.
But it's different to be seen in here
and also loved because I know that you love me.
You wouldn't have signed up for these courses
and these classes and this membership
if you didn't believe what I'm saying.
But it's hostile out there, okay?
It is.
People are cray, cray, cray out there.
And so I don't do a lot of stuff out there.
I don't open myself up to that.
I don't try to get on the world stage, so to speak.
And I do really feel like, I used to be though,
I used to have a show on Periscope
called The Wake Up Call with Jackie.
I used to do a lot of things out there.
I do more things in here now in the last eight years.
But I do feel like God is saying to me,
it's time for you to go back out there.
And here, I'll still be here,
but I'm just saying it's time for me to be seen
and possibly rejected
and possibly yelled at and argued with, you know?
And that's okay.
I don't know if I told you guys this or not,
but I just found out a couple nights ago,
actually at the party,
that Charlie Kirk was talking about me
before he passed away.
He was on a video, on an interview,
and he was talking about me.
He said my name.
He said that people needed to join my program.
He was talking about my book.
And we looked it up and we found out that it was true.
It wasn't just a figment of someone's imagination.
Someone at the party said that they had found out about me
because they heard Charlie Kirk talking about me.
And so it was really pretty awesome to hear that
because I actually was invited
to come on Turning Point USA on the podcast.
And I have to be honest with you,
and I hope this doesn't offend you,
I had no idea what it was.
First of all, I'm not his audience.
I'm not Gen Z.
I can't listen to everyone
who's out there talking about Jesus.
I'd obviously heard his name before,
but I didn't really know who he was
and I had never listened to any of his videos.
But now that I know who he is and what he did
and what he actually gave his life to do,
I think that is a huge honor.
But I, call me crazy,
but I feel like God wanted me to find out about this.
And now I found out about it through two people.
So one person told me at the party
and then I found out about it right afterwards.
Someone else said,
hey, by the way, we found out about you from Charlie Kirk.
And I just wanna say that I believe
that part of that mantle that's left behind,
that I'm carrying that now.
And I need to be seen and I need to step out
and step in the ring and need to not be afraid
of what people are gonna say
or the attack that might come
from the words of truth and life,
especially about the revival of marriage and family.
And so that part of the mantle,
I fully believe we were carrying together already.
We're both revivalists for marriage and family.
We just didn't get to meet each other this side of heaven.
And so that's another reason why I feel like
stepping into the arena is important for me in this season.
All right, who else wants to fill in the blank?
It's time for me to what?
I can go.
Go ahead.
So I was telling the prayer call this morning
that God had asked me to take a sabbatical
from figuring stuff out.
And in that month, I got breakthrough in so many things.
I never could have reverse engineered.
And so I am officially resigning from figuring things out.
And so it's time for me to just trust God
with all the things that I had been
trying to figure out on my own.
Yes, Nora.
Officially resigning from trying to figure things out.
You have resigned or been fired, one or the other.
Okay.
Yeah.
I love that.
It's time for me to what?
Come on, these are good.
Who's got one?
I'll go.
It's time for me to let go of all the lies
that I'm not worthy of marriage
and to believe that marriage is for me and it's possible.
I'm not worthy of marriage.
Yes.
It's time for you to let go of those lies.
Guys, I heard from a client today.
He's a great guy.
He's a good looking guy.
He's a successful guy.
He loves Jesus.
And I, you know, he's been in my men's group by proxy.
He doesn't always come to lives and stuff,
but he's been part of this community
for a little while now.
None of you have probably even met him before.
I think he was spotlighted
during one of the single spotlights maybe last year.
Long story short, he told me that he met someone
that he's really excited about,
hasn't been this excited about someone in a long time,
already went to visit them.
They're a few states away from him.
He's excited to go back and see them again.
He said he really sees this going somewhere.
And I just want to tell you, that woman is a paraplegic.
She's in a wheelchair.
She has no use of her legs.
She was in a bad car accident when she was 17 years old,
and she has not been able to walk ever since then.
I'd say she's probably in her thirties now.
And so I say that to say this, you're not disqualified.
He's super excited about a woman who's handicapped.
She's in a wheelchair.
And you know, so hello, whatever it is
that you've been like, oh, no one can love me
because I have kids, or I have this, or I have that,
or this is wrong, or that's wrong.
You know, people, when they meet you,
they usually want to focus on what is right with you,
not what's wrong with you.
You know, it's about your heart.
It's about your passion for life.
It's about your passion for Jesus.
It's about what are you doing with what you've got?
I know people who have fully functional legs
that don't use them.
They just sit on their ass all day long.
I'm sorry, that's what they do.
They don't ever move.
They don't go hiking.
They don't go running.
They don't go walking in nature.
You know, they're wasting perfectly good legs.
They don't go skipping or jumping.
So if that offends you, I'm sorry.
But if you have perfectly good legs,
you should probably use them.
It's probably a good idea.
All right, I'm letting go of what?
It's time to let go of what?
I've got one.
This week, just because of all that you've shared,
I hired a health coach.
I never thought I would do it,
but I went in because it's time to let go of my weight
because when God says run, I'm gonna be ready.
Let's go.
Come on.
She's like, I'm letting go of dead weight.
I'm letting go of dead weight.
Let's go.
Come on, Allison.
That's amazing.
Good for you, girl.
I love it.
Who else?
Proud of you.
I think God's telling me it's time to move forward
and he gave me an image of starting to pack up my apartment
even though I don't have a place to go yet.
Okay, so it's time for me to move forward.
Jill, is that what you're saying?
Yes, it's time for me to move forward
and I think he's asking me to do a prophetic act
of the things I'm not using to literally pack them up,
like go get boxes and start packing them up.
I did that.
When I was moving, I did that.
I did that before I had a place to live or go
or even knew when I was going.
Now, it became pretty awkward after a while
trying to live out of those boxes,
but eventually I did move
and so I'm not against that at all.
Maybe the things that you use every day,
put them in like, you know,
put them in like a bin in your room so you can use them.
But yes, it's time for me to move forward.
Prophetic activation.
It's time for you to what?
Who else?
We'll take two more, two more shares.
I'll go.
Time for me to start pursuing my spirit mate.
For the past year and a half,
I've basically been at my retail store
six days a week, 10 to six.
So I took that time to really dive into your courses
and some other courses and I feel like I was in training
and just growing and just, I'm just,
I listened to what you said about if nothing has changed,
maybe we need to change our location.
So on Saturday, I moved into my beach house
that I have been dreaming about for the past 40 years.
Come on.
Here and I've been unpacking and super, super excited.
So I feel like summer is my season right now
and I'm just so ecstatic.
So now I'm gonna really start pursuing my spirit mate.
I feel like I have him there because I think he's here.
I love it.
I love that.
Congratulations on your new location.
That's amazing.
I love that so much.
You guys, a lot of things are coming full circle
and there's a lot of people making moves.
All of a sudden they have a fresh supply of courage.
The siege kept them doubting, it kept them always afraid.
And now there's a fresh supply of courage,
of excitement, of hope, of peace, of joy, of acceleration.
That's what's happening.
That is what's happening.
All right, okay, I think that we're right here at the end.
and yes, we're past the hour.
All right, this is just a short, brief meetup tonight
to talk about seasons, to talk about respecting our seasons,
talking about knowing and being wise,
knowing what to do in the timing in those seasons.
I remember when I was working in TV,
I felt like I was going to,
there was this woman who was a GM of a different network.
I was the GM of this network
and I actually ended up resigning and moving on.
And I had met her,
we were both GMs of different TV networks
and her network was a much larger network.
And I knew that she had moved here from Atlanta,
moved there to Columbus from Atlanta
and that she didn't really know anybody.
And so she was just really on my heart one day.
And out of the goodness and pureness of my heart,
you guys, no agenda whatsoever,
I called her and I said,
hey, would you like to get together for lunch?
She did, she was really excited.
And we got together for lunch
and I really just ministered to her.
I really encouraged her.
She was a single woman.
So you guys already know I was carrying that gift.
And so I encouraged her
and this has been years and years ago now, this story.
But I wanna show you how you can be in the right season,
but out of timing, okay?
And so we're talking and I'm encouraging her
and she's like, we should really do this again.
I was like, absolutely.
I said, I would absolutely love to do this again.
And so just reaching out, I had a friendship to her
because she had given up everything
to move from Atlanta to Columbus
and she just didn't have anything,
any friends, no community.
And so we ended that lunch and I went home,
I didn't think anything of it.
And a few days later, I was in prayer and God spoke to me
and he said, she is going to,
because I'd given her some advice about,
she'd already been in Columbus
for like seven years by this time
and she really hadn't made any community.
She was really homesick.
So I had given her some advice about,
hey, maybe it's time for you to entertain the idea
of either going back home
or maybe God has something more for you kind of idea.
So within, in prayer, over the next couple of days,
in prayer, God spoke to me and he said,
she's gonna move back home.
She misses her parents, they're elderly.
She's gonna move back home
and you're gonna take her job as the GM of that network.
And I was like,
now I wasn't trying to get back into television
at that time.
It didn't even cross my mind as God is my witness.
That is absolutely not why I took her to lunch.
I just took her to lunch so that her and I
could just get to know each other.
I always thought she was sweet and God put her on my heart.
So we get together again for another lunch
and I'm not gonna say anything about that.
I'm not gonna say anything about what I felt,
what God said or nothing about that.
But in the course of this lunch,
she's so excited to see me.
She's got, I have great news, Jackie,
I need to talk to you.
Let's have lunch.
So we have lunch and she's like,
I just wanna let you know I'm moving back to Atlanta.
She's like, after our talk,
I just really realized that life is too short,
that I really just want to move back to Atlanta,
blah, blah, blah, da, da, da, da.
She said, I wanna let you know
that I've recommended to the network
that they replace my position with you
if you're open to the job.
That's what happened.
That's what happened at this lunch.
And then you know what happened next?
I made a fatal timing mistake.
I should have just kept what I knew to myself,
but I wasn't mature enough.
And I said, oh my God, that's crazy.
In prayer the other night,
God told me that you were gonna move back to Atlanta
and that I was going to replace you as the GM.
You guys, I almost saw the spirit come over her
after that came out of my mouth,
even though she just said the exact same thing.
One of the reasons why she had never made community
in Columbus is because she didn't trust people.
And when I said that, instead of being like, really?
Wow, oh my gosh, me?
Are you sure?
Oh yeah, whatever.
When I said that, I could see by the look in her eyes
that she thought this was all a setup,
that the whole thing was manufactured
to try to get her job, to try to steal her job somehow.
She didn't say anything to me in that moment,
but she said, hey, I'd love to have you come over
to the network and start shadowing me
and seeing the job and all this stuff.
But just like Saul and David,
she started acting super weird towards me.
She started really being very standoffish,
very just weird and crazy.
And within like maybe two or three months,
she sent me an email telling me
that she had recommended someone else from the job
and they had given it to them.
That's what happened.
And the reason why is because I was in the right season,
but I was out of timing.
And so why am I telling you this?
Because sometimes the things that you hear from the Lord
are not meant to be shared.
Now, obviously you can share them in here.
This is a safe space.
You can share them here for the purpose of processing.
I believe that words should be judged.
And so if you have a crazy word from the Lord
and you want it to be judged,
then post it and let the coaches,
by the way, who are all ministers,
let them judge it.
They're all wise.
They're all spiritually mature.
Say, hey, I feel like God is saying this.
What do you coaches think?
Let those words be judged.
But as far as the people that the words pertain to,
don't speak out of turn.
You might be in the season,
but you might not be in the right timing.
And so, and sometimes it's not something
that you're ever supposed to communicate.
It's just something God's telling you
so that you can get ready and prepare for it.
Does that make sense to everybody?
So you have to know, excuse me.
You have to know whether it is a shareable word
or if it is a just for you, Mary,
pondering it in your heart word.
Trust me, Mary didn't go off shouting from the rooftops
that she was immaculately conceived.
I would have not been good.
Dude, she would have got stoned.
You know that, right?
They would have drug her little teenage booty
out into the street.
And there's nothing that Joseph
would have been able to do about it.
In fact, an angel had to appear to him
to tell him what was up.
So all I'm saying is, is that if you receive something
from the Lord in these times and seasons,
in these things that you've said
that are happening to you right now,
what you feel like you're walking towards,
what you feel like you're leaving behind,
what you have in your hand, what doesn't fit anymore,
it may not be time for you to actually say that
to the people that it has to do with
or the companies that it has to do with.
Wait on God's timing.
Just be satisfied and content
that you know that you're in the season.
God's in the neighborhood.
If you guys know what that means,
you've been here for a really long time.
Raise your hand if you know what that means
when I just said God's in the neighborhood.
There should only be like two of you
unless you're on Kingdom Seekers
and you heard me talk about it.
Okay, there's a few of you.
I used to have a student who every time
someone would get married, she'd be so excited,
almost as excited as if, or engaged,
she'd be so excited as if she'd gotten engaged.
And finally, I was just like, what's up with you?
I said, you just have, you're just such a cheerleader
for other people's love stories.
She goes, oh no, honey.
She's like, if it happens for somebody else,
it means God's in the neighborhood.
That's so good.
I've always just held onto that.
All right, so ask the Lord whether it's something
that like Mary, you're supposed to just ponder in your heart.
It's just a you and him thing,
and it doesn't need to be shared with anybody else.
I know you're excited about it,
but don't be spouting off to other people
and getting thrown into the dungeon, Joseph, okay?
Other people can't necessarily handle
what it is that you're trying to say.
And then there are people that you can share it with,
maybe, if you have a release to do that.
Okay, so hopefully that helps you guys.
I already told you that I've been carrying this word
that keeps getting devoured somehow,
keeps getting delayed somehow for 15 years.
And I think it's time.
I really do.
I think it's time.
And so we're all gonna move forward together
in all these things.
All right, so let's do a little activation prayer.
Ready?
Close your eyes, repeat after me.
I will not miss my season.
You don't have to unmute yourself to do it
because then it's just gonna get messy in here.
All right, so just stay muted,
but say it out loud where you guys are, okay?
I will not miss my season.
I am aligned with heaven's rhythms of grace.
I'm aligned with heaven's rhythms of grace.
I will plant when it's time to plant,
rest when it's time to rest,
build when it's time to build,
and reap when it's time to reap.
My times are in God's hands
and I will prosper in every season.
Amen.
Psalm 1 1 you are the tree by the water that prospers in all seasons
And I do have a book that my friend wrote. I don't know if I have it here
I don't think that I do. I would love to show you the front of it. My good friend Bethany Hicks wrote a
book oh
There it is right there Gail if you can put it up. It's called seasons and assignments
some of tonight's teaching is straight from that book and
And so it says know what to do and when to do it
It's by Bethany Hicks. And so if you want to grab that book seasons and assignments, it's full of so many great activations
So many good questions to ask yourself to really be able to do this season and this
Assignment that's before you well, she doesn't she doesn't have any idea that I'm talking about her book tonight
but she's one of my best friends and so
So it's not a marketing ploy at any time of any kind, but I just really felt like we need to
Push into knowing our times and seasons since the siege is over
If the siege is over then we need to know what we need to be doing with the freedom and the free flow of
resources that that's bringing
cool
Now I'm in her book. I haven't gotten to that place yet. I guess someone just said that I'm in her book
I haven't gotten to that page yet. Don't tell her I'm not done reading the whole thing
Oh
Y'all reading I like it, but it's hard
Okay, so
Go forth with the Lord no matter what season you're in there's gold in your season
David showed us there's gold in your season. No matter what season you're in in his season. There's a lot of gold
And so make sure make sure friends that you are not saying off. I'm in a crappy season. Everybody else is in a good season
Uh-huh. Every season is a really good season full of the blessings of God full the prosperity of God full of the
Promotion of God and so do not think of it like that because it's not true
So I'll see you guys soon Supernatural Saturday be there be square. Bye everyone
