All right.
Welcome to Supernatural Saturday.
If you're new and this is your very first Supernatural Saturday, please raise your hand.
I would love to see who has never been here before.
You've just joined the program.
This is your first time with us on Saturday.
Anybody, anybody new?
All OGs in here, huh?
About 87 people, 88 live right now.
We are starting about a minute early.
I know everyone rolls in here at the buzzer.
That's fine.
All right.
For those people that are going to be getting on and that are brand new to Supernatural
Saturday, welcome.
We are so glad to have you with us.
This is my favorite time of the week where we get to come together as a community and
look to the Lord.
We get to look to the Lord together, and there's so much power in that.
The Bible talks about what happens when people come into unity.
Over and over and over again, it talks about what happens when people come into unity.
It talks about how there's a blessing there that's commanded.
It says the blessing is commanded where there's unity.
Is that powerful?
It's not just, oh, maybe there's a blessing or, you know, there might be a blessing.
No, God commands a blessing.
He commands it where there's unity.
And so we come in here, we're of the same mind, we're of the same spirit.
We're looking up to the same Father and asking for what?
Divine revelation.
We're asking for the same thing.
And so there's such power in that.
And so that's what we do on Saturdays.
We come here and I usually am the leader of Supernatural Saturday, but there's a lot of
audience participation and we just press in.
We press in together and we ask God to tell us what is the current prophetic reality of
heaven.
Every single one of you has a different reality going on in your life right now.
None of our realities are the same.
None of our circumstances, none of the details of our lives are the same right now.
We might have some similar details, but somewhere along the line of your details, there's going
to be a detail that somebody else doesn't have.
But all of our realities are not compared to the reality of heaven.
We want to live in the reality of heaven.
We don't want to live in our individual realities because truth, not relative truth, but absolute
truth always trumps facts.
Amen.
Absolute truth always is greater than whatever your reality is, whatever your facts are.
Everyone here has facts today.
Some of you might have a fact that you're single.
OK, that's a fact.
But the truth is that you've been created for partnership.
That means that if God spoke the end from the beginning, aren't you already married?
And I don't mean to Jesus.
That's a wonderful one, yes, and we're all going to enjoy that throughout eternity, but
you are not married to Jesus on earth.
There's some crazy theology floating around that we're all already married to Jesus.
When Jesus came, the covenant that he brought made us all married to him.
And so now we don't have to be part of the old covenant where we married each other.
What? First of all, marriage came from the garden, not from the old cursed covenant.
It didn't come from the blood covenant because of sin.
It came from the garden.
It came from original design.
God made them, he made them male, he made them female, he brought them together, he
partnered them because two are better than one because they're better together because
man, it was not good for him to be solitary or alone.
So if you're hearing this theology, please kick it out.
I know it sounds spiritual and so much of stinking thinking in the church does sound
spiritual and it'd be easy to adopt it, but it's going to keep you stuck.
It's going to keep you stuck.
And we don't want to be stuck because I believe that we're in a season of harvest.
I a little bit later today, I hope all of you signed up.
If you didn't go to the resource pages on your app and you'll see where you can sign up
for the wisdom challenge.
I'm the guest today on the wisdom challenge right after this.
So I'll be leaving here a little early to go over there.
And my proverb that I've been assigned because it's the 10th day of January is
Proverbs 10 and one of the scriptures in Proverbs 10 and I'm reading from the passion
translation is know the importance of the season that you're in and a wise son you
will be.
Guess what?
All of you are in a season of partnership.
That's why you're here.
Now that doesn't mean it's going to happen next week or next month.
It just means you're in a season of it.
For those of you that showed up and signed up to be in the times and seasons that we
did on January 4th with prophet Bethany Hicks, we learned that you can have different
seasons in different.
areas of your life. You can be in a summer season in your
business. You can be in a fall season, raising your kids, maybe
even a winter season where they've gone off and now they're
starting their own families and you feel like you're an empty
nest. You might kind of feel a little barren because what was
there is now not there. But you friends, I just want to let you
know you're never empty. Empty is an invitation. Empty is an
invitation to be filled. It's okay to have an empty space.
That's just giving God an invitation to fill that space.
So when kids grow up, they go off to college, they get married,
they start their own households. Yes. Our mothers and fathers
hearts really do hurt a little bit because we know that it will
never be the same again. And it won't. It'll be different. But
it can still be good. It can it can be different and good. Those
two things can be synonyms. Right? In some ways, it's even
better. Because now they're not eating all the food in your
fridge. Now they're not running up the light bill, leaving all
the lights on. Turn up the heat, turn up the air conditioning,
doing all the things that they do. They're not on your car
insurance anymore. They're not on your phone bill anymore. So
there can be some positive benefits to them having their
own lives. Right. And also one of the positive benefits is that
they start to have families of their own. And they realize that
you weren't so stupid after all. They realize that you weren't so
backwards or old fashioned after all, they realized that maybe
you actually kind of knew some things. And so they started
having a greater appreciation, hopefully for you in a lot of
ways. So it's telling us to know our seasons and then we'll be
wise. Know your seasons and you will be wise. And I love that. I
love that. So we need to know the season that we're in and all
of us are in a season of partnership. We're at different
levels of that manifesting in our lives, but we're at a season
of that. And God wants us to understand that. And that's
what's so beautiful about this community and about even
Supernatural Saturday is we're coming in here in unity with
each other, understanding the season that we're in together.
Because you know what happens out there outside of this
community, you may have friends and family members that don't
understand your desire for partnership. They don't
understand your desire for marriage. They think you should
be over it by now. Some of you have already been married
before. They're like, Hey, didn't you learn your lesson
the first time? It's so funny, the things that people will say
to us out of concern for us. And that's what today's
Supernatural Saturday is going to be about. But I want to go
back to how, you know, it's really important as we come
together, you know, that we know heaven's reality for us. So you
might have a fact that you're single, but the truth, the
absolute truth is that you've been created for partnership.
Another absolute truth in that area is that God gives us the
desires of our heart when we delight in him, which means the
desires that are in your heart right now, as you've been
delighting in the Lord came from God, they didn't come from you.
They came from God. So that's another part of absolute truth,
because that's scripture and scripture is the absolute truth.
Now we can't take scriptures and just make them mean whatever we
want them to mean. Can't just slap a scripture on it and make
it mean what we want it to mean. But that is actually what that
scripture means. If you dig down into the ancient language that
that scripture is written in, it's saying when you delight in
the Lord, that word delight actually means consummation. So
that's the same thing that would happen when a husband and wife
come together in passion and in intimacy, physical intimacy, and
they produce conception happens and they have a seed that is
sown into the womb of the woman. When you delight in the Lord,
when you're intimate with him, when you allow him into your
heart, what happens in that process is a consummation of
sorts where what is conceived in your heart space is desire, not
just for him, but for all kinds of different things, the desires
of your heart. And that's where that seed is sown from. And then
that seed begins to grow as you water it. And then God's the one
that gives the increase. Conception is a mystery. The
Bible says conception is a mystery. How that happens is a
mystery. That's a very supernatural situation when we
become impregnated with things, whether it's with human
children, or whether it's with the dreams of our heart, it's a
supernatural kind of situation. But what happens after that is
up to us.
Are we going to water that?
Are we going to be around people that water those seeds?
So those seeds can grow.
Are we going to be around information that continues to reinforce that dream, that dream
most going to start out as a tiny, tiny, tiny little thought you guys all dreams.
They all start out as a tiny thought, just a little one.
Have you ever just been driving down the street and all of a sudden you saw something, whether
it was a billboard or whether it was, you know, somebody else, you know, doing something
that, you know, made sense to you, you know, maybe you, you drove by some kind of public
event or whatever, it doesn't matter.
Have you ever been anywhere walking down the street, driving down the street, walking through
the mall does, you know, walking through a convention center at work, walking through
an office building.
Have you ever been anywhere in the thought just crossed your mind?
Wow.
I wonder what it would be like to do that.
Anybody.
Come on y'all.
I'm pulling for your dreams this morning.
Raise your hand.
If you've ever had the thought, hi, what about that's like, I wonder what it'd be like to
do that.
I wonder what it'd be like to have that job.
Wow.
I really liked that outfit.
I wonder where they got it.
Anybody.
Come on.
You guys, these are the seeds of dreams.
If you think a thought that's outside of yourself that you've kind of never thought before,
you got to pay attention to it.
If you've never wondered what that would be like before, if you never wondered what having
that job would entail before, that is a God wink.
That is the start of a possible dream in your heart.
Now it may not look exactly like whatever you're seeing, but this could be the building
blocks of that.
And so that's how something is implanted in your heart.
Have you ever been somewhere and you saw someone really at the top of their game doing whatever
it is they do, whatever it is that they do.
And you have thought to yourself, wow, I wish I could do that.
Well guess what?
You can, it may not look exactly like that.
It may not be exactly like that, but these are the seeds of dreams.
But oftentimes this is what happens.
Please pay attention to what I'm going to say next.
Oftentimes what happens is, is that if we allow that thought to stay there long enough,
we bring it to somebody else.
We're in conversation and we're like, you know what I thought the other day and you
say it out loud and either that person is going to be a dream keeper or a dream killer.
My friend, that's, what's going to happen.
They're either going to be a dream keeper.
They're going to be like, man, yeah, that's interesting.
Wow.
You should look into that.
Or they're going to be like, what, no, that's dumb.
If you're really familiar with them and they're a family member who is a negative person,
they may even be like, that's a stupid thought.
Or even worse, you can't do that.
Anybody?
Okay.
Put your hands down.
I have a lot of hands up right now and I want to ask you a lot of questions today.
So put your hands down so we can talk more.
Is this helping anybody already?
Hopefully it should be helping you already.
Okay.
Keep your hands down.
Just give me some hearts.
Give me some emojis if it's helping you already.
In fact, instead of putting our hands up, that's what we'll do.
Hopefully all of you know how to do the little hearts and the emojis.
Okay.
So a lot of you, a lot of you are telling me that that's happened to you before.
So right now, give me a thumbs up, heart, whatever you can access in your emojis.
If that's happened to you in any way, shape, or form in any way, shape, or form, maybe
you're at work and you saw a job posting, an internal job posting, and you said to
your coworker, and you saw the job posting, and even though it's something that you haven't
done before, you saw the criteria for it, you thought you could probably be qualified
for it.
And you say to your coworker that's been sitting in the cubicle next to you for 20 years, hey,
you know, I saw that job posting and I was thinking about applying for it.
They're either going to say, go for it, they're either going to be your cheerleader or they're
going to be your naysayer.
And you guys, people don't just do this because they're bad because they're bad people.
A lot of times they do it out of fear.
If they've been sitting next to you for 20 years, guess what they don't want you to do?
They don't want you to leave.
They don't want you to move to a different department.
They don't want you to move to a different office.
They don't want you to leave and go get a better job.
Even though the two of you have been sitting there
complaining about how this job is more work
than the pay for 20 years.
They like commiserating with you.
They don't want that to be an empty cubicle
that gets filled with another person that they don't know
and maybe they don't like.
There's a lot of people that really are comfortable
in their comfort zone and they don't want you
to get out of your comfort zone and make them uncomfortable.
Is anybody following me today?
Come on, you guys,
this is what God highlighted in my heart today.
This is important, we're in a new year.
And I believe that God wants to begin to conceive
in some of you some new dreams.
It's gonna start out as just a thought, as just a whisper.
Do you know what I say over people when it's their birthdays?
If I've ever posted on any of your pages,
because I just happened to notice it was your birthday,
I say the same thing to everybody.
May this be the year where the purest whispers
of your heart come true.
That's what I say to everybody.
Because I believe these are pure whispers, you guys.
And sometimes they're just a whisper,
they're not really that loud.
And some of you join this community
because it's just a little whisper that you hear.
It's a little whisper that you wanna be partnered.
It's a little whisper that you wanna be married.
And you're afraid to even utter it out loud.
It literally is a whisper.
You're afraid to say it out loud
because you're afraid it can't happen.
And you're afraid that the people around you will kill it
before it even gets a chance to get started.
And that's why you live, that's why you're here.
And that's why this is a beautiful place
where you can talk out loud about this dream.
And not just this dream.
This is a place where you can talk about all of your dreams.
This is a place where we're good dream keepers.
I believe in the impossible or I wouldn't be here.
I believe in the impossible.
I believe the impossible is possible.
Otherwise we wouldn't have 1,600 plus success stories
in five years.
If you haven't noticed,
I have the gift of hope and faith for this.
But not just for this.
For anything in your life to be resurrected,
any dream in your heart to come to pass,
especially the things that are pure.
And so this is where we fall off.
People are like, well, maybe it's not pure.
Maybe it's just my flesh that wants it.
Have you been delighting in the Lord?
Do you love him?
Give me some hearts if you love God.
And I don't mean perfectly.
I mean imperfectly.
Because in case you didn't realize it,
you're living in this flesh suit.
You're never going to do anything perfectly.
You're going to mess up.
You're going to give into temptation.
You're going to sin.
That's why Jesus came to die for you.
He's not giving us permission to sin,
but he has covered sin.
He has.
He died for you and as you,
so that you can continue to mature
and continue to grow and continue to learn.
For all of you that messed up in your life,
for all of you that messed up yesterday,
the most important thing is not that you messed up.
It's what did you learn?
The only danger is continuing in folly.
The only danger is continuing to make the dumb,
the same dumb mistake over and over and over and over.
And guess what?
Guess what?
That's a heart situation.
That's rooted.
If we keep having the same fruit pop up,
same fruit, different day,
that means it's connected to a root.
We got to let Holy Spirit remove the root
or the fruit is going to continue to come.
Jealousy is coming to my spirit right now.
If you continue to be envious of other people,
jealous of other people,
not be happy for other people's success,
that's rooted in fear.
Jealousy is rooted in fear,
just in case you didn't know.
I know it's really ugly
and we think that it's rooted in ugly, ugly things,
but let me let you know,
fear is the ugliest thing that anything can be rooted in
because it's the opposite of love.
It's the opposite of love,
not hatred, fear.
Hatred comes from fear.
Jealousy comes from fear.
Dishonesty comes from fear.
All of it.
And so if you have something popping up
that continues to sabotage your success in life,
make you feel shame,
once again, origin, fear.
So let's deal with that.
But most of us are doing the best that we can.
So when it comes to delighting in the Lord, it's not a perfect science.
There's not a criteria of how much you need to delight in the Lord, how intimate you need
to be with him, how much you need to pray, how much you need to fast, how much you need
to be in worship.
It's not about that.
It's about a heart posture.
Do you love God?
Do you love him?
When you think about his love, does it make you feel a little weepy-eyed?
When you think about his goodness, when you think about the things that he's done for
you, when you revisit those landmarks and those memorials in your life of where God
has helped you and he has saved you and he has delivered you and he has healed you, does
it cause your heart to be full of joy and gratitude?
Then you delight in the Lord, my friend.
And that is the only criteria for consummation or conception of dreams in your heart.
So please do not ignore the tiny little seeds that you have, that we talked about at the
beginning of this, where you drive by something, you have a thought.
Dreams start out as thoughts.
They start out as curiosity.
Has anyone ever just become curious about something super random and you Googled it
because you're just curious about it.
You just want to know more about it.
Something very random that you've never thought of before.
And you're like, huh, that is a little God wink that leads somewhere.
That's a little love note trail.
I used to call it a breadcrumb trail until breadcrumbing became something that love bombers
and narcissists do.
It's like psychology hijacked a fun word, but also breadcrumbing is kind of from the
very macabre fairy tale Hansel and Gretel.
So we don't want that either.
We don't want to be breadcrumb to the witch's house where she's going to eat us later.
So for those of you that don't know American fairy tales, you're like, wait, what?
Yeah.
Disney took all these fairy tales and made them into fun cartoons.
But the actual fairy tales, the grim fairy tales are grim.
My friends, they are super scary, super scary situations.
So God just leaves us little notes, little love notes leading us places.
And so if you ever have a random thought like, Hey, you know,
well, I'm kind of curious about that.
Be curious about it.
Look into it, see where it leads you.
It could just be the first love note on the trail that leads you somewhere totally different,
but that's how you got there.
That's how you got there.
I've heard all kinds of origin stories of people's dreams.
You guys, all kinds of origin stories.
I have a really great doctor and you guys know that it's hard to find a really good
doctor, right?
I've really good doctor back in Ohio.
And I just hate that.
I can't see him regularly because I love him.
And he's such a good doctor.
It doesn't matter what he practices, what type of medicine he practices.
If you could take him and put him in any type of medicine,
he could be an OBGYN.
He could be an internal doctor.
He could be a cardiologist.
Doesn't matter.
He would be a good doctor, no matter what type of medicine he practices.
And the reason why is because he has the heart of a good doctor,
but you know how he got it.
This is all Holy spirit right now.
You guys were just flowing in the spirit.
I asked him one day because he's such a good doctor.
He has such a great bedside manner.
He's so caring.
He's so knowledgeable.
He's so skilled.
I said, Hey, when did you know you wanted to become a doctor?
And he kind of lit up a little bit.
Like he loves to tell this story.
And he said, actually, he said, I had a bad accident when I was a kid.
So his origin story of his dream comes from trauma.
It comes from when he was a kid, he was playing soccer.
He's an Indian man.
He's not from India.
He's born here, but you know, he's playing football.
Okay.
Football, soccer.
And he was playing it and something happened that caused him to become
injured and he broke his pelvis.
And he was, I think nine or 10 years old, which resulted in him being in the
hospital for three or four months.
In one of those body casts where your legs are up, you know what I'm talking
about, have you ever seen any kind of movies or any kind of pictures of
someone, maybe one of you have been in a body cast before.
So he was in a body cast from the waist down with his legs and traction
laying still as a 10 year old boy in the hospital for several months.
You and I could probably imagine that for anyone that would be terrible
before that would be terrible.
But for him to be in the hospital for three or four months, you know,
10-year-old boy, that would be very bad, especially a very active, athletic boy.
And remember, this is back in the day when there probably wasn't any video games or really anything
to do, except maybe read comic books or watch television. And he said that in his time in the
hospital, his doctors were so kind. They were so caring. They tried to make it fun for him in such
a way at this hospital that he was at, that he knew when he was a young boy, that when he grew
up, he wanted to be a doctor too. That's what happened. That was the origin story of his dream.
Isn't that incredible? So dreams don't just come from good places, you guys. Sometimes they come
from hard places. What I do for you, my dream to restore marriage and family in the earth,
to revive marriage in the earth, to help people choose right,
choose good so they can have lineage and legacy, it comes from a very broken and dysfunctional
childhood. That desire was birthed in hard places. That desire was birthed in a girl's home. That
desire was birthed in foster care. That desire was birthed in a dysfunctional family where there were
lots and lots of divorces for everybody.
You see what I'm saying?
So when you're curious about something or something happens that makes you
say to yourself, Hey, the comfort that I've been comforted with, I want to comfort others with.
Maybe you're a single mom and people have been giving to you or helping you. Maybe there's a
certain organization that has really helped you. And the thought has come into your heart, man,
I'd really like to work for that organization. When I get on my feet,
I like to go back and help others the same way that I'm being helped right now.
Or maybe you see a space where people are not being helped and you've really in the past needed
that exact type of help, but it doesn't really exist. Or at least you haven't been able to find
it. Sometimes when you see the need, you are the help. And that's where a little tiny seed is sewn
and conceived. You know what I'm saying? It's beautiful. And that's where it comes from.
So let's get to the nuts and bolts of today. Now that we've talked about these very,
and I want to let you guys know, they could be fragile little seeds.
They can, and it's important what happens as that thing is starting to root in your heart and gain
traction and grow. It's important that we steward it well, and we protect it. And sometimes silence
is the best stewardship of a dream, meaning pondering it in your heart at the very beginning.
Look at Joseph. He had a dream. And as soon as he woke up from his dream,
he went out blabbing it to people and it got him in a lot of trouble, didn't it?
First of all, he wasn't mature enough to understand the meaning of the dream.
He was receiving that dream through ego. I'm going to rule over you. You're going to bow down to me.
I'm going to be important. And you guys are going to worship me kind of idea.
Yeah, that's not going to go over really well. It isn't. And if God sows a little dream in your
heart that one day you're going to be super, super wealthy, and you're going to be able to,
you know, bless people through your wealth. And you tell that to your family that struggled with
nine to five, all their lives and in generations, and you come blabbing that guess what? That's not
going to really be well-received. They're going to be like, who do you think you are?
We're honest, hardworking people. You're telling us that you're going to be rich.
How are you going to be rich? So you have to be careful with your dreams.
And we see this in the story of Mary, right? She gets a crazy, crazy word from the Lord,
crazy word from the Lord, tiny little seed of conception sewn into her heart through a very
supernatural experience. And some of the desires of your heart have come through supernatural
experiences. You were in prayer and you felt like God spoke something to you. You weren't even
asking him for anything, but he spoke something to you. Anyway, you were in worship. God spoke
something to you in a dream. God showed you something. Supernatural things do happen that
begin the path towards some sort of outcome, some sort of dream.
Now this wasn't a dream of a little teenage Mary's heart.
to be the mother of the Messiah, but her heart must have been a fertile place
because God saw her and he favored her above all women and chose her for
this. Chose her for this, right? And that's another thing that I think we can just put into
this Supernatural Saturday. A lot of times you are going to feel disqualified for the desires
of your heart. You are going to feel not good enough. If you have a dream in your heart that
you feel good enough for, and you also feel like you could perform it or make it happen
in your own abilities, it's probably not a God dream. Probably thinking a little bit too small.
It could be part of a God dream, but the God part of it's probably a lot bigger.
Like I said, the last Supernatural Saturday, a lot of us never make it to God's part.
Because we don't do our part. We don't even make it to God's part. We don't even make it. We don't
even do the natural, so we don't make it to the Supernatural. That's another part of my proverb
that I'm going to share today. It says, know the importance of the season that you're in and a wise
son you'll be. But then it goes on to say, but what a waste when an incompetent son sleeps through
his day of opportunity. You guys, the word incompetent just means not having the skill to
be successful. You know where you get the skill to be successful? Through practice. You know where
you get the skill to be successful? Through mentorship, through coaching. That's why you're
here. If you knew how to do this, then you would have already done it. Right? If you understood
what you were missing, then you would just make it happen. So a lot of us don't even make it to
God's part because we don't do our part. We don't do our part. And a lot of times we don't do our
part because we really don't even know what our part is. We just don't. And that's why Holy Spirit
is an instructor and a teacher. And that's why Holy Spirit works through people, coaches, mentors,
people like me, people like other people in your life, in different areas that will coach and
mentor you and help you. If you want to go slow, go alone. If you want to go fast, get a coach,
get a mentor, come into a like-minded community where your dreams are going to be fed and they're
going to be watered and they're going to be prayed for. The seven-day-a-week prayer that we
have for all of you that are new, that's not a new thing for us. I'm an intercessor. I'm a prayer
warrior. That is my position, my very most important primary position in the kingdom of God.
When I came in the kingdom at 22, that is how God used me and utilized me. And I continue to be used
and utilized that way. And all of my greatest dreams have been birthed through intercession
for others. So as soon as I started this community back in 2020, I immediately instituted
seven-day-a-week prayer. And I led every single prayer session until God sent me people that
had the skills to lead it as well. I was diligent over that. If you want to live out your dream,
it's going to require discipline. It's going to require diligence. It's going to require
showing up when you don't feel like it. It will require those things that will be your part,
that will be your natural, that God puts his super on. And it's going to look different
for everybody. But I knew in order to come out from obscurity, it's a one thing to be praying
behind the scenes. It's another thing to come publicly and say, we're going to have a revival
of marriage and family. Guess that? That attracts every demon in the world. They all
turned their heads and said, what? Because marriage and family is public enemy number
one to the kingdom of darkness. And you cannot have a ministry like that if you are not going
to have a prayer covering. And so all of you make up that prayer covering. And I'm so thankful.
Thank you for coming to prayer. That is what you're doing when you come to prayer. You may
not be the leader of that prayer session, but your voice in unity together is what causes the
prayer covering to happen. It's not the leader. The leader is just making sure that there's not
chaos. You're just making sure that everything gets done in order and everyone gets to pray.
You are the VIPs. You coming and using your gift to pray, using your desire to pray.
That is what causes the covering. If you ever wonder how we've had 1600 plus success stories,
it's because of you. It's not because of me. Yes, I gave my yes, but after I gave my yes,
you gave your yes and you gave your yes and you gave your yes and you gave your yes. And
all of our yeses together is what causes us to happen. And prayer is the lifeblood of this.
So please, if you haven't been showing up to prayer, please try to.
Sunday night's a good time to show up to prayer. If you work during the week and just
during the time of prayer,
maybe you can come on your lunch break sometimes.
You can also just pray during the time
that you know we're praying,
even if you're not on with us.
You can just pray silently at your desk
while you're working, like,
oh, hey, my family, my community is praying right now.
I'm gonna add my prayers to theirs.
Guys, there's no distance in the spirit.
We don't have to be on Zoom together
in order for your prayers to come into unity with ours.
This is good today, you guys.
I mean, it's always good.
It's always good because it's God,
but I really feel like
God's trying to show us something today.
I know there's some correction here,
but God just showed me this this morning,
and this is a different proverb.
It's not my Proverb 10
that I'm covering today on Wisdom Challenge,
but it says that God corrects,
it says a father corrects the sons that he loves, right?
And this is what God said to me this morning.
He said, what's the difference
between correction and punishment?
The answer is love.
The same very thing could be being said
for correction or for punishment,
and the way a person's going to receive it
is whether or not they feel loved by you.
And I hope you guys feel loved by me.
I hope you feel loved by me.
I know I can be kind of strong sometimes.
I know I can be a little direct sometimes,
but I wouldn't be here if I didn't love you,
each and every one of you.
I wouldn't be here if I didn't love your lineage
and your legacy, if I didn't love your love story.
I wouldn't be here.
I wouldn't be doing this
because the warfare is real,
and I'm not glamorizing or celebrating it.
I'm saying it is, though.
And that's why prayer is so important,
and that's why you praying for me
and you praying for the other leaders of this movement
and praying for each other,
even if you can't be on prayer with us,
is so very important to all of us
because we need that covering.
And I think that we're gonna need it even stronger in 26
because I think that what we've seen,
we ain't seen nothing yet.
I think we're going to see an explosion of kingdom family,
and we are going to be the forerunners of it
because we have been tilling the ground
and planting the seed.
Harvest comes to people who have seed in the ground,
and friends, we have a lot of seed in the ground,
a lot of seed in the ground.
And guess what?
God's gonna send the rain.
And so what the difference is between correction
and rebuke and punishment is love
and whether or not someone feels loved.
And I want someone to take that with them.
I wasn't gonna share that on today,
but I think that you need that for people in your life.
I think that those of you that are parenting,
those of you that have other people,
maybe you're an employer and you have employees,
if you want them to receive your correction,
they need to know that you care for them.
Remember that old saying,
people don't care what you know
until they know that you care.
They don't care how much you know
until they know how much you care.
And so you need to spend some time showing love
and not just discipline
because otherwise it's going to be received as punishment,
even though you're just trying to correct,
it will be received as punishment.
And then guess what?
Punishment oftentimes,
especially from someone who doesn't think
that you're doing it because you love them
is going to cause resentment and possibly even rebellion.
That man, that's a word for somebody.
You have in trouble with your kids.
They're not listening to you.
They don't trust you.
I know that's a hard word to receive,
but I've lived that with my parents, not with my children.
My children listen to me because they trust me
because when I messed up,
I told them that I messed up.
I humbled myself.
I asked for forgiveness to my children
when I popped off in anger or said the wrong thing
or said something that, you know,
they're like, mom, that's not true.
And I'm like, yes, it is.
I'm your mother, listen to me.
And then I come back and be like, you're right.
It's not true.
I was wrong.
I went and checked the facts and I realized,
oh, they did do their homework
or they did take out the trash
or they did whatever.
And I would come in humility and say, please forgive me.
I'm just a human.
I made a mistake.
I'm sorry.
I love you.
That's why they trust me.
Cause it wasn't, I'm the parents.
It's my way or the highway because I said so.
I wasn't that parent.
I wasn't.
And now my kids are grownups
and other grownups that I hang out with,
other parents, they're like, man,
your kids really love to be around you.
Every time you're going somewhere,
your kids are like wanting to go too.
Like every trip I go on, I have one of my kids with me
and they're like, how is this, how is this working?
I can't get my kids to even come over.
Well, because my kids like me, that's how.
And if that is not your reality,
remember you can have heaven's reality.
If that's not your reality right now,
it can become your reality.
You're like, no, it's too late.
It's not too late.
Love covers a multitude of wrongdoing.
Love covers a multitude of mistakes.
Love covers, which is in my proverb for today, offense.
You're like, well, how can I write the ship, Jackie?
You can begin to show love even if it's not reciprocated.
Not manipulation, not for a desired outcome.
You can't control the outcome.
All you can do is sow the seed.
God's the one that has to give the increase.
Sow the seed.
Love.
Support.
You're like, well, they're no contact with me, okay?
Pray.
Repent.
I don't know what I did wrong, Jackie.
Doesn't matter.
Repent of everything.
Humble yourself.
This is really a word for somebody, you guys,
that's not even part of today's Supernatural Saturday.
It's a word for probably more than one somebody.
It could be not your children.
It could be a sibling.
It could be your parents.
It could be a best friendship that you really, really miss
and you know that it ended badly because of hard hearts.
It could be anything.
All right, let's go back to our dreams.
Gonna be on here for about 10 more minutes
and then I have to go get ready.

And it's gonna be a good time.
I know that it will be.
All right, and you guys listen to the last nine days too.
If you're just signing up today,
listen to the last nine days.
Some amazing voices of wisdom.
Every single day, amazing voices of wisdom.
It's really great to start your year out right.
Clarity has to come before momentum.
You can't run a hundred miles an hour without clarity
because you're gonna hit a dead end for sure.
All right, so let's talk about this.
Dream killers versus dream givers
or dream protectors, dream keepers.
Not everyone deserves access to your dream.
You may have close friends and family
that like Mary, you're gonna ponder this in your heart.
You know what would have happened
if Mary would have told people
that she believed that she was impregnated
by the Holy Spirit?
Yeah, that wouldn't have gone over well.
It wouldn't have.
You see how God covered it up, right?
He appeared to the one person who really needed to know
and that was Joseph.
He was the one person that needed to know
and then he took her anyway.
So it's better thinking that she got pregnant
right before they got married by Joseph
than it was people knowing the truth.
Amen?
And God will protect your dream.
He will protect it, but will you?
During these fragile, fragile times of it growing,
are you going to let someone come in and try to execute it?
Someone come in with their words and try to abort it?
Especially someone that you really care
about the opinion of,
someone that really has influence over you,
you gotta be careful because if they're a negative person
or a fearful person, they're the wrong person.
I know that you want their approval,
but you're gonna have to get over it
because their approval actually might abort your dream
because they're a fearful person.
They're gonna introduce all kinds of,
well, what if this and what if that,
and that's not safe.
And just like, no, I had that happen to me yesterday.
Yesterday.
I talked about something.
that I'm already in the launching process of
with someone that I really admire and respect,
but I know that they are someone
who always sees the storm clouds.
And I knew that before I said it.
And yet I was so excited about it
that I just blurted it out
and then they were smack down.
I'm gonna do it anyway, but I just wanna say that.
Okay, not everyone deserves access to your dream.
And friends, those people are not bad people.
They think they're protecting you.
They do it out of concern, right?
Some people do it out of jealousy
and they wanna keep you small,
but a lot of people do it out of concern.
So not everyone deserves access to your dream.
I have a few notes here,
but what you have to understand is that your dream is alive
before it even manifests, before it's even accomplished,
it's alive, it's a living thing.
If I asked you to raise your hand,
if you believe that abortion kills a human life,
I think most of you would raise your hand in here.
And I don't wanna get into an abortion topic.
I don't wanna get into whether it's right or wrong
or all those things.
But I think we all believe that it is a child,
it is a life that is being snuffed out in abortion.
Well, guess what?
Your dream is alive the same way
that any other product of conception is alive.
I want you to really understand that.
Even if it hasn't fully formed, it's alive in the same way.
Why? Because God's words are life.
They're alive.
They're alive, they're living things.
They're little power containers of life.
And so even though you think it's just a thought,
you think it's just a spark, it's not, it's alive.
Yes, it's alive.
And so your dream is alive before it's accomplished,
before it's manifested, before it's fully formed,
before you have it in your hot little hands,
it is alive.
And this is the gestation period.
And all gestation periods for dreams are different.
Some dreams gestate for decades before they come to pass.
So for those of you who are like,
man, my dream didn't come to pass,
I must've done something wrong, I must've aborted it.
No, it might be one of those dreams
that has a longer gestation.
You know why?
Because those dreams require a higher level
of responsibility and maturity.
And marriage is one of those.
The good news is I believe that all of you
in this community are at the end
of your gestation period for partnership.
That's why you're here.
I don't believe that God calls people into here
when they still have 20 years to go
before their partnership.
I feel like we're kind of part of the midwife team
that helps you give birth to that thing.
Okay, all right.
So some people don't kill your dreams with hatred,
they don't hate you, they don't hate your dream,
but they kill them with concern.
They're concerned for you.
And we all know people who are concerned,
they're worriers, they're worriers,
they worry about everything.
You know what God told me?
My word for 2026?
He said, Jackie, don't waste one moment on worry in 2026.
And this is what he said next.
He said, if you can control it, control it.
And if you can't, give it to me.
Jackie, don't waste one moment on worry in 2026.
If you can control it, control it.
And if you can't, not control fear, not control worry,
control the thing that you're worried about.
If you can control it, then control it.
But if you can't control it, don't worry about it,
give it to me.
Understand Jesus Cares Board should be alive and well
in 2026.
You should have more things than ever on that board
for God to participate in.
All right, number two.
Number one, not everyone deserves access to your dream.
Sometimes silence is the way
you're gonna steward your dream.
You're not gonna tell anyone right now.
You're just going to talk to the Lord about it.
You're gonna put it on your Jesus Cares Board.
You're gonna pray over it.
That's what you're gonna do.
All right, number two.
Wise counsel is very different than fearful commentary.
Sometimes fear sounds wise, doesn't it?
It sounds wise when it's coming at us
from someone that we trust and respect.
But you guys, if it causes you to walk away afraid,
it was not wise, it was fear.
If you walk away with some clarity, like, yeah, okay.
Some clarity has come.
Cool, it was probably wise counsel.
If you walk away being afraid,
wondering if you should even do this,
more confused than when you started, that was not wisdom.
Wisdom does not cause confusion.
All right, y'all are just staring at me
like a cow at a new gate.
Does anyone learn anything today?
Raise your hand.
Give me some hearts, some emojis.
Some of y'all need to inform your face
that you're having a good time up in here.
Because I'm thinking of the scripture,
do not look at their faces.
Continue to speak.
Do not regard their stern expressions.
You guys know I like to have fun.
All right, wise counsel will ask you clarifying questions.
They'll ask you why you want your dream.
They'll ask you what your plan is for your dream.
This is a good person to bounce things off of.
They're gonna ask you questions.
They're gonna ask you, hey, have you ever thought of this?
What about this?
Neutral, not negative, not necessarily even positive,
just neutral questions, things to make you think, all right?
Fearful commentary is gonna give you worst case scenarios.
They're going to try to give you worst case scenarios.
They're gonna try to talk about the liability
of the decision, the liability of the path
or the course or the idea, all right?
Only that thing, and it's gonna be through the lens
of the glass is half empty, or you better watch your back,
you better sleep with one eye open kind of idea.
It's okay, wise people will ask you
if you've counted the costs.
They'll ask you if your schedule can support this dream.
I've been doing this with one of my leaders just recently.
I've been coming as a voice of wisdom, not negativity
and saying, hey, do you have room in your life for this?
I do all of that with you guys too.
When I coach you guys, like, hey, you really want marriage,
but do you have the bandwidth for marriage?
Marriage takes up a lot of time.
Dating towards marriage takes up a lot of time.
Have you cleared the way for your dream?
Dreams will require pruning.
They will require letting go of things,
even good things in order to get great things.
We won't get into that today.
That's a whole different conversation,
but wise counsel will ask you those questions.
They won't just, oh, yay, wonderful, okay.
I'm so excited for you.
No, they'll say, hey, I know that you want this promotion
at work, but you're a single mom.
And every time I come over your house,
you're always behind the eight ball.
Are you gonna get some help at home?
Like, what's gonna look like at home
for you to take this promotion?
Are you gonna get some help?
Are you gonna ask for some help?
Are you going to use this extra money that you're making
and employ some help at home?
There is no harm and no foul to use some extra money
to do things that you don't have time to do.
Like someone come and clean once a month,
someone maybe pre-order or pre-make you some food.
You know, there's no harm in that stuff, friends.
Don't think you have to do it all yourself
because if you think you have to do it all yourself,
you will try and you will also fail.
Okay, all right.
So fearful people will say, you know,
what if you lose everything?
They'll just say things that it's wisdom,
it's not wisdom, but it's fear dressed up as wisdom.
It's fear dressed up as wisdom.
And you'll know the difference by how you feel inside
when you leave their presence, okay?
Right?
Because this is what I want you to know.
Even if it's someone that you really love dearly,
fear is still fear.
Fear is still fear.
Fear is always fear,
even when the source it's coming from loves you.
They may love you, but there's no fear in love.
Amen, amen.
All right, we got to hurry.
I said I was going to get off early
and now I'm going to go over
the danger of small thinking circles.
You guys, you have to stay away from people
who are dream killers because they just think too small.
They are the us for and no more mentality people.
They have made a comfort zone out of being mediocre.
They have made a comfort zone out of status quo.
They've made a comfort zone out of single-mindedness.
They have made a comfort zone out of being a single mom.
They have made a comfort zone out of being a single season.
They're the people that say,
oh yeah, being married would be nice.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, wouldn't that be nice?
Oh, I wish that would happen.
No, friends, those are not your people.
Also the people that say marriage
and wanting marriage is an idol,
those are also not your people.
But you know where your people are?
Right here.
It's an idol.
But we are knowing that God gave it to us as a dream
and we're doing our part and we're letting God do his part
and we're coming here and we're supporting each other
in life, not just in singleness.
We're supporting each other's dreams in other areas.
We're speaking truth and wisdom over each other.
We're praying for each other.
This is a great place to be.
Stay out of small thinking circles.
Some people cannot see the life that they could have
beyond the life that they've settled for.
I'm gonna say that 15 more times.
They cannot see, they don't have vision
for the life that they could have
beyond the life that they've settled for.
This is what they.
settled for and this is all they can see.
And because you don't want to settle,
they're going to think that you're unrealistic.
Now thinking this way doesn't make them evil.
They're not bad people. They're not evil people.
They might even be people that you love,
but it does make them unsafe for your vision.
People that have no vision perish.
And you guys, that doesn't mean that they just fall down
and give up the ghost.
They don't just fall down and croak
as my grandpa would say.
It just means that there's areas of their life that are dead
and they're not going to be resurrected
unless they decide that they want those things
to be resurrected.
And so that means that your dream is not safe with them.
Why do you think Jesus said to his disciples,
let the dead bury the dead?
He wasn't talking about the dead.
It was metaphorical.
Metaphorical. You understand, right?
He's like, hey, follow me.
I'm going to go show you a different life.
I'm going to go show you a kingdom.
Let the people who can't see the kingdom
deal with the people who can't see the kingdom.
Dead in their vision.
You guys, are you guys picking up when I'm laying down?
I know it's a lot for a Saturday morning.
I know it's a lot.
You guys, what I call the border bullies,
the people that are going to keep you from crossing over
into the promised land,
they often come in the form of family, friends,
well-meaning other believers.
Maybe they love Jesus,
but they just don't have a lot of vision for dreams.
Okay, people can love Jesus and also not be living the life
that Jesus died to give them.
They can.
And no offense, but some of you are those people.
And I love you, but you are those people.
And I'm hoping to kind of wake you up a little bit
because we don't want to sleep.
What did the Proverbs say?
Proverbs says, let's not sleep during our day of opportunity.
Let's not sleep during our day of opportunity.
They're not going to block you with force,
these people that you love.
They're not going to block you with force,
but they are going to block you by sowing subtle seeds
of fear and doubt and discouragement.
That is what's going to block you.
You've got to stay away from that in 26
if you want to live out and manifest some of your dreams.
Amen.
All right, Father God, I thank you for today.
I thank you for this session.
I thank you for this truth that you've spoken over us.
We could go and go and go on this topic,
but we thank you, Lord, for what you have spoken to us.
And through us, Lord, we pray, God,
that we would get ahold of this
and that this seed that was sown today
would be watered and watered frequently
by voices of hope and courage and vision
so that we can go forward into everything
that you have for us.
In Jesus' name, amen.
I love y'all.
I'm giving you time to get over to Wisdom Challenge.
Go to your resource page, register, and I'll see you there.
See you soon.
