Good morning, everybody.
Good morning, good morning, good morning or good afternoon or good evening.
I have no idea where you guys are.
For me, it's morning time.
It is morning time, you guys, and God has really been speaking to me over the course
of last night, really the last few days, but last night especially into today.
And so buckle your seatbelt because we're definitely going somewhere this morning.
And yes, I'm going to walk around my house while I talk to you because that's what I
do.
And I asked you to have your camera on, so I'm going to have my camera on.
Do I want to have my camera on?
No, I don't because it's distracting to me.
It's a distracting situation for me, but I'm going to do it so that you can do it because
I think it's important that you be seen.
I'm not doing it for me.
I'm doing it for you because I think it's important that you be seen.
And so go ahead and put your camera on unless you're naked.
If you're naked, go put some clothes on and then put your camera on.
Okay?
I know that sounds funny to all you, but it's happened many, many a time, many, many a time
that people forgot that their camera's on and their clothes aren't.
And so make sure that you do that first, but put your camera on.
If you're driving, you don't want your camera on, okay?
If you're at work and you can't have your camera on, okay, everybody else's camera's
on.
Remember, starting in April, camera's on.
Camera's on for each and everything that we do here.
Do a little housekeeping here at the beginning.
For those of you that have made it to our VIP community, also known as Phase 3, we're
going to be doing coaching, really prep work, coaching and helping you guys to step into
the things that God has for you.
So there's going to be a lot of accountability over there.
There's going to be a lot of challenging happening over there.
There's going to be a lot of clarity coming over there.
And so we're going to be doing that.
We're in March momentum and we're going to continue throughout the spring.
I believe there's a summer of love with your name on it.
I don't believe that that's just with another human being.
I believe that that is what God has for you.
So let's get into it.
Father God, we're so thankful for your goodness.
We're so thankful that we can come before you and we can step into the current prophetic
reality of heaven, what you're doing, what you're saying, what you want us to know, what's
our part to play, what's your part that you're already playing.
Lord, I thank you, God.
I thank you that you've allowed us this.
You said that you share your secrets with your friends and we are your friends.
And so Lord, we thank you for this time together this morning.
We thank you to us and through us in Jesus name.
Amen.
All right.
So I want to do a little continuation.
Well, first of all, I want to say this.
It doesn't feel good to be set apart.
I think that it's important that all of you hear that.
There's 194 of us on this call right now.
I want you just to stop for a second.
And I want you to ask yourself this question.
Why do we all know each other?
And if you don't know each other, you could get to know each other better, but we do know
each other in the way that we have all been drawn to this place.
You guys, there's eight plus billion people in the world.
I really need you to get ahold of this this morning.
Why is there 194 of us on this call?
Because Jackie's charismatic?
Because somebody told you about this program and you came here because you really want
to get married and you like my teaching, you think I'm funny, whatever?
That's not why.
That's not why you guys.
I'm going to talk to you about why today on this call, because you have to start understanding
that your life is not random.
It's not a random situation.
And I want to let you know that there's one thing that each and every one of you have
in common, which is why we're all here together.
And no, it's not that you're single.
It's not that you're a Christian.
It is that you have been set apart.
And I'm going to say what I said at the beginning again, being set apart is not fun.
It's not fun.
How many times have you heard some version of, well, God must have something better for
you?
Dear Lord God, help us.
Well, God must just have something better for you.
Oh, I'm sorry that that didn't work out.
What?
The job, the move, the relationship,
but God must have something better for you.
And the thing is, is that it's not not true.
I know that's a double negative, but it's not.
It's not not true,
but it's still hard to hear.
Cause it's like, well, you know,
I'd be willing just to settle for this.
Come on, you guys.
I'd be willing just to take this, God.
I know that you want something better for me,
but there's gotta be a point in time
where we stop waiting on the something better
and we just take what is.
I had that experience with my daughter,
shoe shopping before like fifth grade.
You know, you run to the mall,
you're trying to get all the things
and she wanted this specific pair of tennis shoes
that I don't think existed actually.
She had dreamed them up in her head.
She had sworn that she had seen them somewhere.
So being at the store with a 10 year old
who's looking for a specific pair of shoes
before she goes into the gauntlet
that is pre-middle school,
it's a rough time.
And some of you have lived it.
We searched that mall high and low,
every store you can think of,
and guess what?
No, we couldn't find them.
And then finally towards the end of our quest,
she was like, we ended up back at the shoe store
that we started at, finish line or something.
And she was like, mom, I'll just take these.
Like, I'll just, I'll take these.
And I'm like, what do you mean you'll just take these?
We just spent the entire day looking for these tennis shoes
that you have to have.
These white with the lines, with the sparkles,
with the things.
And you're gonna take these?
No, you're gonna take these
after we've spent the whole day looking.
And she's like, yeah, mom, I'll just take these.
And I said, no.
I said, I'm pretty sure I can go online
and find you the shoes that you're talking about.
I was like, you just can't have them today.
You can't have them.
You just can't have them today.
And she just threw a fit, you guys.
She threw the biggest fit.
I'm looking for my glasses as I'm talking to you.
She threw the biggest fit in that mall.
She cried.
She begged for those fricking shoes.
And finally, I said, why do you want these shoes so bad?
These are not the shoes that you wanted.
And she said, because I just want something.
I'll never forget.
I'll never forget that she said that to me.
And why won't I forget it?
Because we're all like that.
But I just want something.
I don't want to leave here empty-handed.
I just want something.
Anybody else?
And so it really stinks if you have a higher purpose
that you're called to,
because you know what God's not gonna let you have?
Just something.
I think that we can all agree that I'm a preacher.
Raise your hand if you think I'm a preacher.
Raise your hand if you think that I would've done well
on the preacher circuit,
on the platforms, on the stages,
with the Lisa Beavers and the Joyce Meyers of the world.
Raise your hand if you think I could hold my own
with all those people.
Raise your hand if you think I have the charisma,
if you think I have the looks,
if you think I have the timing,
if you think I have the humor
to have made it as a preacher.
If you think I have the revelation,
if you think I have the anointing to have been a preacher.
Well, I just want to let you know
that that's what I wanted to be.
That's what I wanted to be ever since I met Jesus
when I was 22 years old.
I wanted to be in ministry.
I wanted to be a minister.
I wanted to be a preacher.
I wanted to prophesy.
I wanted to minister to people.
I wanted to do that.
And you guys, I was well on my way to it.
After I got out of the church
that didn't believe women were allowed to speak,
okay, that's the first obstacle that you have to overcome.
It's when you're being discipled by people
that think women are supposed to just sit
and look pretty or sing.
And I'm really, you know, I'm an okay singer,
but I was never going to make it as a singer.
You're allowed to sing or take care of kids.
I guess you can teach women.
I guess you can in that denomination.
But as soon as that pastor went to prison
and I was able to get out of that denomination,
I immediately became part of the denomination
where you are allowed to preach.
And you guys, I was just as happy
as a bird with a French fry.
When I tell you I was so excited,
I was finally going to get a chance to preach.
And the people around me were like,
wow, I was at a mega church
because my husband that I married, he was part of that.
staff. He was on staff there. And people were like, Whoa,
you're an amazing preacher. Oh my God. The revelation of God,
the prophetic of God that's inside of you. I started,
I started speaking at the church and y'all,
my night of speaking got so big
that the pastor shut it down because he's afraid it was going to take over the
whole church. He was afraid that the entire church,
it was going to take over the whole church.
If I kept having my night of ministry that I was having at
one of the buildings of the church. And I know that that sounds crazy.
You're like, why wouldn't he be happy about that? Well,
he wasn't for some reason,
but I got my first conference,
my first huge women's conference at a mega church down in Kentucky.
I was invited to come and speak.
And I was the opening speaker of this conference.
It is my first ever conference guys. And I had arrived.
This is it. This is what I was born to do. And I was up there.
I was ministering.
And then they had breakout sessions in the conference and everyone had to sign
up for their breakout session. And you guys, there were some famous speakers,
some famous women preachers there. People that if I told you their names,
you're like, yeah, I know her. I read her books. Yeah, they were there.
And I was just little old me, little nobody there.
But do you know that so many people signed up for my breakout session that they
had to give me the main sanctuary at a mega church because almost the entire
conference signed up to hear me again. Why?
Because I have it. That's why.
And I could use it to be a preacher. Does that mean I still don't have it? No,
I have it, but I didn't use it to be a preacher. You know why?
Because God said, Oh, Hey, by the way,
after you leave this conference and you go home,
I don't want you to preach anymore. I don't want you to be a preacher.
I didn't call you to be a preacher.
This isn't the use that I have for that gift. Yes.
You could use this gift in that way, but that's not how I want you to use it.
And so what happened, friends, I went into a long process.
And that's what today's call is about.
I went into a long process and process is not fun,
but every promise comes with a process.
And I want to try to get it into your heart today
that we all know each other. For one reason, we've been set apart.
We've been set aside and we've been consecrated.
We've all been in a long process. That's about to come to an end.
We're at the end of a very long process together.
We are kingdom people and God has
wooed us all,
maybe tricked some of us into being here together.
You guys, there's only, there's only 232 of us here.
There's eight plus billion people in the world. And you're like, well, Jackie,
how can this be true? What you're saying of all of us?
Because there's only 232 of you. That's why.
Do you know how small of a number that is? You know what we would call that?
We would call that a remnant.
We would call that a very small remnant, actually.
You are part of a remnant and not just in your love life,
not just in your love life.
The fact that you are attracted to what is happening here.
Cause I don't know if you noticed this or not, but yeah,
a lot of people get married here.
We have an anointing to help people get married.
And that is definitely what God has had a sell to the
public. Married in 12 months or less. Last year, single, come,
come get married.
But how many of you feel like it might be a little bit of a bait and switch?
Not on our part, on God's part. He's like, Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Sell them what they want that I'm going to give them what they need is what God
has been up to. Yeah. You get the partner.
Actually the way that it's looking out here right now in the world,
you get that friend for the end of the world.
You get that friend for the end of the world. But yeah, you get the partner,
but you get so much more, don't you?
Because what you're doing is you're getting reminded regardless of where you've
come from and regardless of what you know,
you're getting reminded every week of who you are in Christ,
not just to play patty cake for Jesus,
but to actually be a change agent
and a kingdom person, right?
To be a citizen of a kingdom, not just a church goer.
Isn't that what's been happening?
I want to talk about what we talked about last week,
but we're going to change the narrative a little bit
because some of us have really been wallowing around as my grandfather used to
say, what do you want?
What do you want?
wallowing around for, wallowing around in the grief of God forgot me, wallowing around
in the grief of God has passed me by.
Everyone else got their moment, but I've been left behind.
I want to see the hands of the people that have been wallowing around in that.
You try not to wallow around, to be fair.
You've tried not to, but you do.
You find yourself in that moment again and again and again, because it just feels like
my little daughter at the store.
Why can't I just have something?
Why does it have to be so hard?
It seems so easy for so many other people.
Why for me does it have to be so hard?
And I'm not just talking about your love life, I'm just talking about everything that you've
been hoping and wishing and praying for.
Why does it got to be so hard?
Huh?
I found my glasses, all right.
But what if, and here's where we're going to change the narrative today, what if that
narrative is wrong?
What if the story isn't that you've been forgotten?
What if the truth is, is that you've been set apart?
I'll let you sink in for a second.
What if that's the truth?
You're like, well, Jackie, that sounds really good, but I don't feel very special.
I feel pretty ordinary.
That's fine.
I don't care about how you feel.
Your feelings matter nothing to this conversation.
I want you to just consider the idea that the reason why there's only 236 of us on this
call is because there's something that we have in common and that we have all been drawn
together for a reason.
And that reason is, is that every one of us, when we were in our mother's womb, got set
apart.
How would you feel about that?
How would you feel about that if that was true?
I know that that sounds all like, oh, I'm so special and that's so amazing.
No, it's actually hard.
It's actually hard.
Let's actually just take a little quiz, shall we, to see if my hypothesis is true, to see
if I truly am hearing from the Lord, the Bible says to test prophetic words.
So let's test it.
Everyone have your hands down.
I want to see no little yellow hands raised because I see some right now.
Get them all down.
We're going to do a little poll.
Put your hands down.
I'm waiting.
There's about six of you that have your hands up still.
All hands down.
Little poll before we jump into our teaching.
How many of you, when you were growing up in school, and you guys, please don't think
this is true of everybody because yeah, maybe one moment in their life, but how many of
you experienced prolonged times of isolation, bullying, being left out, being picked on.
It feels like you were singled out for whatever reason, being misunderstood even by teachers,
even by adults.
How many of you experienced just feeling like you didn't fit in, not feeling like you could
find your place, like you were the odd person out or the square peg in the round hole, liking
things that other people around you didn't like, even in your family.
Look at all these hands.
How many of you felt like a misfit, just felt like a misfit for whatever reason, fill in
the blank.
Maybe I didn't even mention it yet, but you just felt different.
How many of you just felt different than your peers around you, than your family around
you?
How many of you even dealt with lots of warfare from a young age, whether it was physical,
mental, psychological abuse.
Maybe you had a childhood sickness or you just weren't healthy, you weren't strong.
You just dealt with all kinds of things that were against you from a very young age it
seemed like.
Yeah, well, it's more than half the people on this call with their hand up and other
people I see you waving your hand, maybe you don't know how to put your hand up.
Okay, you guys, so what if the narrative is wrong?
What if the story isn't that you've been forgotten?
What if the truth is, is that you've been set apart, that you've been set apart?
I don't know about you, but I'm kind of a weirdo.
When I walk through crowds, I just look at people.
I look at their faces, crowds of people, and it always amazes me about how many people
there are in the world.
Anywhere I go, I mean, I'm just in one little city in the world, one little city, Austin,
Texas.
But when I walk through huge crowds of people, and there's huge crowds of people here, I
look at people's faces and I think about their lives.
Who are you?
Where have you come from?
You know, what makes you tick?
What are you even thinking about right now?
This is what goes through my mind.
This is the kind of person that I am.
And I just realized that there's a set apartness on my life.
And it's not because I want to be unique.
It's not that I think that I'm special.
I'm not trying to get you to think that you're special.
I just know that the reason why the 200 and something of us that know each other on this
call and the 1,200 of us that are in this program, that we are here not because we saw
an ad or because a friend told us about it, we are here because we heard a call, even
if it was an unconscious call, to come together with a remnant of people because we've been
set apart.
Now, I can't make you believe that about yourself.
If you want to believe that you're forgotten, that you're left out, that you're left behind,
I can't force you to believe what I'm saying.
But that is not the narrative.
There's an extraordinarily large amount of you that are not on screen.
Why am I on screen and you're not on screen?
I don't care if you look terrible.
I just got out of bed.
I literally woke up like this after I put on blush.
Get your butts on the camera.
Okay.
This is an important one, you guys.
I think this is probably one of the most important Supernatural Saturdays I've done in a long
time.
Even though you might think they're all good, I really believe that God is trying to get
us to see something and to come into agreement with something this morning because of the
time that we're in right now, because of the time that we're in right now.
So what if the narrative that you were forgotten is not true?
And what if the thing that you were set aside for, the specific thing, the purpose, the
timing of that purpose, what if it was right now?
Remember how I told you that I had that opportunity to go to ABC at Disney in New York and I couldn't
take it because I wasn't ready?
Some of you might have missed that Supernatural Saturday.
But can I tell you guys, remember when I said on that call, I bet you it'll never happen
again?
Well, it happened again.
I woke up one morning, it was an ordinary day, just like today, and I got a message
from a famous person.
And that person said, Hey, I have a new talk show and I want you to be a guest, but you
have to come to Nashville tomorrow to film.
And you guys, I got the email from the producers and the showrunners, same people who did Steve
Harvey's show, same people that did The Bachelor, all the things.
And I got the email, it was a legitimate thing, it wasn't spam, it was really happening.
I bought my plane ticket, then the producers called me later on that night and said, Oh,
by the way, it's not two days from now, it's tomorrow, because we just changed the casting
call.
And so you got to come tomorrow.
And you guys, I got all the way to the airport.
And I realized I couldn't go.
I had my ticket, the flight was delayed because there was some bad weather.
And I realized I couldn't go, I had to cancel my ticket and go home.
Because once again, my time of visitation keeps showing up and I'm actually not ready.
Do you know how frustrating that is?
So let me ask you that question again.
What if the truth is that you've been set apart?
And what if the thing that you've been set apart for the time is now?
Can you step into that?
Because I thought I could.
And here's the good news, you guys, this is not a sad tale.
I believe that this stuff is going to keep happening to me because the time is now.
And so between each of these failures to be able to launch, I have an opportunity to get
my ducks in a row.
Last night, Holy Spirit led me to a journal.
He told me exactly what it looked like because I'm a journaler and I have lots and lots and
lots of old journals.
And Holy Spirit said, oh, hey, go find this journal.
And so I went back in our bookshelves and back in the closet full of boxes, full of
books and journals and notes and notebooks and all kinds of things.
I'm a writer, friends, ever since I was a child.
And I write, write, write, write, write.
But guess what, this specific journal, even though it's really old, it was just laying
in plain sight.
Don't you love it when that happens?
It was just laying in plain sight.
And I grabbed it and Holy Spirit's like, I want you to read what you wrote in this journal.
And I didn't write a whole heck of a lot, but the very last entry of the journal, the
last entry of the journal was a list of things that God was putting on my heart to do to
get ready for my time of visitation, a list of things that I needed to get done in order
to be able to step into that season with confidence and with clarity.
And I looked at the list and I had not done even one of them.
And guess when that journal entry was put in that journal, 2022.
You guys, this is not to condemn you or to beat you up, but it's for you to get really,
really alert and awake, understanding that what if the thing that you've been set aside
for, the thing that has caused you to feel like you're on the sidelines of life for so
long watching everyone else play in the game, but it's just not your time to get on the
field yet necessarily, because you're part of a special team.
You know, I like sports.
And for those of you that don't understand sports analogies, there are teams that only
come out to play on the field during very specific things.
The kicking team only comes out when there's a field goal or, you know, when there's an
offside kick that's necessary to get a two-point conversion.
I'm talking football, of course, now there's all different special teams probably for other
sports, but I'll talk about what I know.
There's special plays that get called, that special players get involved in those plays
because you just happen to be really good at that very special thing.
So what if it's to the point in the timeline of culture and the earth where the special
teams, the Mavericks, the Misfits, the people that have felt like they really weren't that
important get to be the MVPs of the game?
What if that's true?
You don't have any proof that it's not, and I have proof that it is.
All right, so I believe, this is what God spoke to me last night, I'm going to release
it over you guys.
I believe that we are finally at the season of time that I'm going to call the rise of
the Misfits and Mavericks.
I already told you the siege was over.
I already told you that so many things that I have specifically been praying for, for
over 20, almost 30 years, finally started happening and coming to pass.
And you guys, when you pray for something for so long like that, it's almost shocking
when it comes to pass.
It's shocking because I don't know if somewhere along the line of praying for something for
20 plus years, you just kind of stopped believing it was really going to happen.
I'm just going to be honest.
And then when you wake up one day and it actually happens, you're like, wait, what?
What just happened?
You know how you get to see what I do when the camera's off?
What just happened?
I propose this to you, friends.
Every disaster that this world has ever seen, whether it was the floods in Texas two years
ago, whether it was the pandemic that we all lived through, guess what they all have in
common?
There was no sign of them.
You just woke up the next day and here they were.
One day you're just fat, dumb, and happy living your life.
There's plenty of toilet paper on the shelves.
And then the next day you wake up and we're all locked down in our houses and there's
no toilet paper.
Come on.
What the heck?
How?
And I propose to you that if calamities can happen suddenly, so can breakthrough.
Why can't good things happen with no notice?
Because some of you are already fighting in your human intellect.
By the way, the Bible says the human intellect is the enemy of the supernatural, the enemy.
So you got to guard that gate.
Remember last week we talked about guarding the gates.
I'm going to get back to that in just a second because this is really important because some
of you are going to bypass this message because you believe that if there truly was change
on the horizon that you would have been seeing it coming for a long time and you can intellectually
agree with it.
Like, okay.
Yeah, I can see.
Yeah, I see.
No, friends.
That's not the way it happens.
If storms can roll in overnight, one day it's 75 degrees and you're living the life of Riley
and the next day you got your big coat out because overnight something happened that's
mysterious to you because
You're not a weather man, but all of a sudden, there's a cold front.
It wasn't here yesterday, but it's here today.
And now I got my big coat on.
Only us Northerners know what a big coat is.
Okay.
I live in Austin where no one wears coats at all.
But when I lived in Ohio, you got a big coat.
You're going to need your big coat.
But wait, it was super warm yesterday.
Friends, there doesn't need to be any signs.
There doesn't need to be any signs.
The only sign that you need is the sign of a prophet.
And I'm telling you, this is what God is saying.
This is what God is saying.
So what are the people that never quite fit the mold, which is all of us.
The free thinkers, you guys, I've been a disruptor since I was a child.
In second grade, my little hand went up all the time to question authority, to
question the practices, to question the way that we were doing things.
All the time, my hand went up, up, up, up, up.
I was in trouble so often.
I was writing tasks.
You guys remember writing tasks?
I will not question the teacher.
Guys, it wasn't just because I didn't like authority or that I was rebellious.
In fact, a lot of us were called rebellious.
I should take a poll and say, how many of you don't fit in the church?
How many of you think differently than the church?
You have an issue with what's going on in the church, Inc, Church Incorporated.
In fact, you have a hard time finding a church where you fit into.
I can ask that question as well.
And that all proves my point.
The misfits, the mavericks, the ones that don't belong to the usual systems are rising.
We are the people that God has been preparing.
And I know that the systems want to call us rebellious, but we're not rebellious.
We are rebellious, but it's not a bad thing.
We just know that there has to be a better way.
We know that there has to be a better way.
Okay.
So let me ask you this question.
What if suddenly all of us begin stepping into the divine opportunities
that start coming out of nowhere?
I just wanted to let you guys know that the right response to what I'm telling you today
would be to get off this call and really take an inventory of your gates and make sure you're prepared.
Because your leader, Jackie, just told you that she missed two amazing opportunities because
just like the miracle of my brother getting a house, I just didn't expect it to happen today.
I've been praying for 30 years and I didn't expect it to happen today.
When God told me not to be a preacher, He told me He was going to use my gifts in a different way.
And guess what?
I've been sitting kind of on the sidelines before, you know, I mean, I've been trying.
I've been trying.
I did a, I did a conference call.
I did a, I did a real life unplugged blog.
I did a, um, what else have I done?
All kinds of crazy things.
I did a wake up call with Jackie's show on Periscope.
I did Married in 12 Months for Yes.
I did last year single.
But God's given me some very specific words about what it looks like to use my gifts.
And guess what?
I pray into that.
I do what I can.
And then I just leave it there.
Like so many of you in all the areas, not just your love life, but definitely your love life.
But I'm sad to say that a lot of times when something doesn't happen right away, what we think is a timely
in a timely manner, we actually become unprepared.
We become unprepared for it.
Okay.
So what if suddenly we begin stepping into opportunities that seemingly come out of nowhere?
I've had two, I've had two in the last month that have come out of nowhere, out of nowhere, big opportunities, you guys.
And, you know, I could beat myself up and I could feel really sad about it, but I'm not, you know, I don't feel sad about it because I know that it's not
just a one and done.
It's a season.
It's a season and I can be ready to step into the next one.
And I told you last time that I would be and I wasn't, but I'm going to be this time.
I'm going to keep telling you that until it's true.
And you can hold me accountable to that because here's what I believe.
God has never been absent.
He's been preparing us.
He's been preparing us the whole time.
Quietly, deeply.
Thoroughly.
Over time, preparing us all the things you guys that almost happened, but didn't quite happen.
Preparation.
Okay.
And yes, the process has been long.
I do agree with that.
The process has been long, but you know what?
The process kind of has to be long.
If.
the promise is big, doesn't it?
If the promise is big, the process has to be long.
The process can be short
if it's a one and done kind of thing,
but if it's something that you're required
to sustain over time,
and there's something that's been happening to me
probably in the last 10 years,
and if it hasn't started happening to you,
it's gonna start happening to you,
where I look back on my life
and I look at all the things that I tried to do
and I look at all the things that I went
and I thought, hey, this is the magic bullet of happiness.
This is the thing.
This is what God's calling me to do.
The trips I went on, the seminars I went to,
the books I read, the classes I took,
the courses I took, the certifications I got,
whatever those things were,
the jobs that I took that I thought were gonna lead
to the thing that God was showing me and planning for me,
but then they didn't,
all of those things are part of this process,
and none of them are wasted.
I need you to hear that.
All the relationships, all the people you helped,
all the revelation you got, all the things you did,
all of it, you will be able to look back and say,
oh, yeah, that makes sense now.
That makes total sense.
I know it doesn't make sense now, but it will.
It will make sense.
Do you hear me?
It will.
All right, it will, it will, it will.
So the process has been long,
but it's the promise that matters, not the process.
So I want you to think about the generation
that we're living in.
I know that you would love to just be selfish
and be all about yourself and be all about your love story
and be all about whatever it is that you need,
but that is not why God created you.
You live in a generation,
and your main purpose in this world is to show it
what a child of God looks like.
You guys, I'm working with a developer right now.
I'm working with a coder over in Thailand.
It's actually someone I know.
They're American.
They used to live here, and they moved there.
And when I tell you that they're brilliant,
they're brilliant.
When I tell you that they're a genius, they're a genius.
And when I tell you in just a few days,
they've been able to prototype a matchmaking app for me.
It's not an app per se, like the last year single app.
It's more of just a matchmaker,
a matchmaker that digs into the database for you
and acts like a matchmaker,
like an AI version of me matchmaking you, okay?
They deliver that prototype to me, but you know what?
I wanted to add a few things
to this process of matchmaking people.
And you know what they told me?
They said, ah, Jackie, that sounds great,
but I don't really think you should do that
because I think people are inherently selfish,
and I don't think people really care
about each other's love stories.
I think they only care about their own.
You guys, the whole point of what I'm doing here
is trying to bring back community, spiritual community,
world-changing community, community-based matchmaking.
That's what I've spent the last five years of my life
trying to see, trying to help people see,
is that somebody knows your spouse.
In fact, they're having coffee with them right now.
They're not a stranger.
They're known to someone.
And according to science,
you are only six degrees of separation from that someone.
Maybe four, maybe three, maybe two, maybe one.
And that's what I wanted my algorithm,
my little Jackie AI matchmaker,
that's what I wanted her to be able to do.
And that's what I wanted other people that use her
to be able to help do for other people.
And he said it won't work.
And he showed me all kinds of examples
of why it wouldn't work.
Other people and their apps
and what they've been trying to do,
or other people in their whatever.
And you know what?
He's not wrong.
The evidence does say that people don't care
about other people's breakthrough.
But this is a group of mavericks and misfits,
which means we're not like other people.
And I wanna ask you the question,
do you care about other people's breakthrough?
Do you care?
And I don't just mean them getting a spouse.
I mean their breakthrough just period.
Do you believe that what you make happen for others,
which is what I always say,
what you make happen for others, God makes happen for you.
Do you believe that?
Are you willing to get out
of your own little doldrums
And focus on someone else's breakthrough instead of your own.
Are you willing to do that?
I mean, you might say it right now in the moment, but you need to really ask yourself,
do I really care?
Or have I just become so scarcity-minded because I've been waiting so long for breakthrough
in my life in different areas that I really just don't care if anyone else gets theirs
or not?
That's something you might really need to ask yourself.
I think we should all ask ourselves that.
I know that the process has been long, you guys.
I've been in it right with you.
You might think I'm not in it just because I'm married.
There's a lot of other things that people want besides just being married, you know?
You know?
There's a lot of other things that people pray for and contend for and believe God for
besides just a spouse.
So yes, I know that the process has been long, but it's the promise that matters.
And I want you to think really quick about the generation that we're living in.
God put this on my heart this morning.
I want you to think about it.
The generation that you've been matched with, even if you got 100 years here, even if you
got 110 years here, my mother-in-law says we all get 120 years.
Okay, maybe.
I don't want to look like the Crypt Keeper, though.
I don't want to just exist, okay?
I'm fine to go to heaven when I can't put my boots on anymore.
I'm good.
But even if you did live to be 120 years, I want you to think about the world, the culture,
the generation that you live in, that you've been matched with.
You guys, we're living in chaotic times, and I know you're like, well, yeah, there's that
thing with Iran happening, and there's this thing over here, and blah, blah, blah.
No, I'm not talking about that.
You guys, in just the last 100 years, 104 years, we've had two world wars, friends.
I know it's easy to forget about that because that was your great-grandparents and your
grandparents' generation.
You guys, it's right here.
Less than 100 years ago, two world wars, or just a little over 100 years ago.
In that same 100-year period, remember, if you lived to be 100 years old, so in the same
period of a lifetime of yours, the Great Depression, massive economic upheaval.
All of that happened.
The stock market crashed in the 80s.
My stepdad lost everything he had in that stock market crash, everything, and he was
a wealthy man.
That happened.
This is why your grandparents hid money in their mattresses, because they had all lived
through these crazy things, right?
This is why they wrapped money in tinfoil and put it in the freezer like leftovers and
let it look like frozen goods.
Anyone else know anyone who wrapped money in tinfoil and put it in the freezer?
Yeah.
Exactly.
Because they've lived through the Great Depression and the collapse.
Why, you guys?
This is the generation that we were matched with.
This is the generation that is alive on the earth.
In our lifetime, we've experienced so many things.
Some of you were alive during things that happened.
I'm not going to say that you guys, well, some of you were alive, definitely alive in
Vietnam for sure.
I mean, I think that I was just born like two years after it ended, but you were alive
during those things.
You were alive during presidential assassinations.
You were alive during all kinds, civil rights movements and upheaval and all kinds of things,
just here in America.
I'm not even talking about the stuff that happened in other countries.
We all lived through 9-11.
We all lived through a global pandemic where the entire world shut down.
You guys, this isn't about tragedies, but I want you to let you know that we've lived
during a time of shaking.
It's important for us to see that because shaking reveals what's not stable, but it
also does something else.
It prepares people.
It does.
So let me talk a little bit about this remnant that I believe you're part of.
I believe something has been happening below the surface.
There's been a rumbling.
There's been a preparation.
And yes, I know it's been hard and I know it's not been fun, but I believe that there's
a group of people, and obviously it's much bigger than just us.
And maybe after today, you'll start meeting more of this remnant.
And you'll be able to tell who they are because there'll be people who don't like the status
quo.
There'll be people who don't just believe everything that they're told, people that
have been deemed as rebellious, people that do not want to go along with the system.
Okay, whether that's church system or world system, that people that want to see healing
and hope in the world for people, people that are tired of seeing people oppressed, people
that feel deeply about the things that are happening that are hurting others, those are
the people that you'll be looking for.
And I believe that you are those people.
You're not church people, you're kingdom people, and you're people who understand that your
lives are about assignment.
You have an assignment.
All right, so I want to go through this really quickly, and in order to do it, I just want
to kind of want to plug in here for a second, because we only have a few minutes left, and
I want to make sure that I hit all of it.
All right, I want you to picture this.
I want you to picture cicadas, yes, those locusts, those grasshopper bugs that we all
get annoyed by because they're super loud.
I want you to picture them because God gave me a word about them that I think is coming
true.
I listened to a word last night, and the word that I listened to last night talked about
how there's a group arising that has been underground.
And God told me that when his kingdom people, when his remnant people, when his mavericks
arise, they are going to be like the cicadas.
And cicadas spend years underground.
If you didn't know that, now you know it.
What are they doing?
They're quietly multiplying.
They're quietly growing.
They're hidden, but they're not.
They're amassing an army.
Because the longer that they're underground, and there's six-year cicada, and there's seven-year,
and there's eight-year, and ten-year, and twelve-year, there's 27-year cicada, meaning
that they stay underground for 27 years before they finally come out.
Because what's happening underneath there is that they're amassing an army.
They're multiplying until there's enough of them to overcome something called predator
saturation.
This is what scientists call this.
This means that when they emerge, they emerge all at once, and they emerge in such massive
numbers that the predators can't stop them, because there's just too many of them.
And suddenly, these hidden ones become impossible to ignore, right?
I know, because I sit on my back porch, and I try to make videos back during the wake-up
call with Jackie days, and they'd be so loud, and I'd be like, what the heck?
I thought these things only came out every seven years.
And that's when I began to study them, because the Holy Spirit led me to, because He said,
this is what kingdom people are going to be like.
He's like, they have been being developed in the hidden places.
He said, they're all over the world, and I've been developing them.
I have been teaching them.
I've been training them.
Yeah, they've gone through a lot of disappointment.
They've gone through a lot of times where they felt forgotten, like the china in your
grandma's china cabinet.
It only comes out a couple times a year, right?
Because it's special.
He said, these are special vessels.
They're not everyday.
They're not common vessels.
They're carrying things that are important to what I'm doing at the end of the age.
So I believe that that's what's happening right now, friends.
I believe that we are people who have been hidden, but we've also been being prepared,
shaped by God.
And now we're starting to find each other.
You found some of your people through this, through last year's single.
And this is how you're going to find your spouse, too, just so you know, because you're
not going to be one of these people and not marry one of these people.
You have to be married to one of these people, too, because these are kingdom alliances.
They're not marriages.
They're kingdom alliances.
So you're going to find them in business groups.
You're going to find them in communities like this.
You're going to find them in conversations.
You're just going to be somewhere, you start having conversations with strangers.
And then suddenly you're going to see that you have so much in common with them.
You're going to feel aligned with them because there's something bigger going on.
Have you ever had that experience?
You just meet people and you feel like, oh my gosh, we've been in the same places doing
the same things.
We're so aligned.
You've experienced so many of the same things that I've experienced.
Guys pay attention to that.
That's an alignment that's bigger than just you making a new friend.
There's purpose being awakened.
And your marriage, let me talk about your marriages for a second.
Your marriages are part of this assignment.
It's not about romance, you guys.
And I know some of you are like, oh no, I want it to be about romance.
It's not not about romance, but it's not about romance.
It's an alliance.
It's a kingdom partnership.
It doesn't mean there won't be any romance, but it does mean that God is bringing two
people together on earth to create something that outlasts you both.
Okay.
I joked about it earlier, but if you want to say a friend for the end of the world,
then go ahead.
But in reality, you guys, it's something far deeper.
It's two people saying we are going to come together with God and build something that
changes the world, changes our lineage, changes legacy.
I don't know how long.
this whole world thing is going to last for, but I can tell you that I really do believe
that we are one of the end-of-the-age generations.
I don't know how many will come after us, but I do know that what we do right now really
matters.
We are at a tipping point.
I do believe that we are at a tipping point.
It's easy to get comfortable, you guys, in these seasons where you feel like you have
all the time in the world because you're on the sidelines anyway, you know, God's benched
you for some reason, and you just get comfortable sitting on that bench.
You get comfortable in this hidden season, but I don't want you to do that.
I want you to wake up because you are not here at this meeting this morning by accident,
you guys.
We are here on assignment.
God wants us to be reminded.
One thing I definitely know that happens is that God has, for whatever reason, allowed
me to be in a leadership position in the way that when something happens to me, it's about
to, like, happen a lot.
And so I'm telling you, I'm getting these opportunities that I'm not prepared for, and
I know that they're going to keep coming, so I'm scrambling around trying to get prepared
when all the way back to 2022, God warned me and told me to get ready.
All the way back to 2020, you guys, four years ago, God warned me to get ready, and I'm like,
oh, darn it.
But you know what?
I am getting ready.
I'm getting ready.
I've already missed two of them.
I hope not to miss any more of them.
But you know what?
If it's happening to me, it's going to start happening to you.
Our assignment is to show the world what it looks like to be children of God in uncertain
times.
What does it look like to carry peace in chaos, wisdom in the confusion that's going on out
there right now, faith in the transitions that are happening?
We're a tipping point generation.
I believe we're a tide-turning generation.
I heard that this morning.
You are a tide-turning generation.
Whatever it is the world has been waiting for, I believe it's here, you guys, and I
believe that we are the people that are going to show it to them.
And so let's get back to last week's lesson, stewarding the gates.
It's time to stop feeling sorry for ourselves, and it's time to take a look at these gates
in our lives, you guys.
These are the places of influence that we have control over in our lives.
We have to stop allowing anything and everything to come in and out of our lives.
No more wide-open gates, especially to distraction and disruption and destruction.
So I want you to put in the chat, what is the gate that God showed you last week when
we did the activation?
What was the gate?
Because whatever it was, it's time to steward it.
We have to guard it.
We have to be alert.
We have to be ready.
There's all kinds of different stories in the Bible that talk about being ready when
your time of hesitation shows up.
And in due season, and in due season, and in due season, you know, the book of Acts,
the day of Pentecost, they had just been waiting around, you guys.
God promised them something.
And yes, you know, maybe they only waited, you know, for, I forget how many days it is
now, 30, 60.
But the point is, is that when it happened, it happened suddenly, didn't it?
And there were some people that had already left and had given up on the waiting, but
we haven't, we're here.
And when the door opens, God expects us to be awake and alert and ready.
Do you want to be awake and alert and ready?
And this is up to you.
I can't do this for you.
You have to pray into this and say, okay, God, Jackie is saying she's being vulnerable
and she's telling us that you told her to do some very specific things four years ago
in order to be ready.
But when the thing that she was getting ready for didn't happen right away, she kind of
slipped back into bad habits and just stopped getting ready and stopped expecting a suddenly.
Just being honest.
Which ones of you can say that that's true of you too?
I don't feel like God would have me release this if it's not true.
And you guys, the Bible says through the mouth of two or three witnesses, let a word be established.
And I've heard at least two other prophets saying that God is bringing his people out
from the hidden or underground places, at least two others.
And I know some of you have just been recently discouraged, very, very discouraged.
I want you to raise your hand if just recently you have just felt like very, very, very discouraged
all of a sudden about the things that you want to have happen that just never happen.
Okay, that is a sign.
Look at all of the people that are raising their hands.
You guys, that is a sign that our captivity is ending.
It's also a sign that, you know, the birthing pains are upon us.
And so I want you, please, please, I want you to really take some time with the Lord
this week and ask Him, what do I need to do, God, to be able to step into or step through
the door when it opens?
All right, I'm just going to do a declaration over you guys right now.
You can repeat it with me if you want to.
I am not forgotten.
I am not forsaken.
I am not left behind.
I have been set apart for a specific time and purpose.
God didn't forget about me.
He's been preparing me.
Even in these hidden seasons, He has been preparing me.
I am part of a remnant.
I am part of a group of people that God has set apart and set aside.
I am part of a generation that is going to carry His light and His love in uncertain
times.
And I will guard the gates of my life.
I will close the gates of distraction, disruption, and destruction.
And right now, we're declaring that we will open the gates to God's wisdom, God's purpose,
and God's opportunities for us.
We are alert.
We are ready.
And we will step into everything God has prepared for us.
In Jesus' name.
Amen.
I want to leave you just this one little thought.
I know that we've all thought that we're constantly in just delay, delay, delay, delay.
But I believe that you've been in development, not a season of delay, but a season of development
just like me.
And all of these years for a lot of you that you feel like you've been waiting, they were
not punishment, you guys.
They were preparation.
And I do believe with all my heart, you will look back and not only will you understand
the dots as they connect, not only will you understand why you did what you did and what
it meant, but you will also feel like it's worth it.
I know it doesn't feel worth it right now, but it will be worth it.
When you see the pattern, it will be worth it.
We've had several people get married just recently that have been single all their lives.
Now they're in their fifties, sixties.
And I know that you wanted to be married when you're in your twenties, or you don't understand
why you couldn't have been a young bride or a young groom, and you didn't get a chance
to have biological children.
For those of you that I'm talking about, the people that just got married in their fifties
and sixties.
But every one of those people have said to me that it's been worth it.
Then they look back on their life.
It makes sense because they accomplished other things.
When other people were getting married and having families, they were doing other things.
They were building nonprofits.
They were raising up people in the earth.
They were doing all kinds of different things, friends.
No assignment is less than.
And I just want to let you know that when you look back, it will be worth it.
It will be worth it.
You won't feel deprived.
You won't feel like you were gypped or you were robbed.
So Father, we thank you, Lord.
We lay down all of our hurt and pain right now.
We lay down the idea that we're not as good as others.
We lay those things down right now, Father, because those things are going to be distractions
and we have to shut those gates of self-pity.
We have to shut those gates of self-pity, because if we don't, then we're going to be
blinded by self-pity and not see opportunity when it comes.
And so, Lord, we refuse.
We refuse to take on the posture of victim because we are victors.
And so, Lord, we thank you, God, that you've chosen us.
We thank you, God, that it'll all be worth it in the end.
In Jesus' name, amen.
All right, friends, appreciate you all.
See you soon.
