1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:09.660
All right, good morning, good afternoon, good evening, wherever you are, welcome.

2
00:00:09.660 --> 00:00:12.580
This is the Prosper Power Hour.

3
00:00:12.580 --> 00:00:18.780
It's where we are every Wednesday, 8 a.m. Pacific Standard Time.

4
00:00:18.780 --> 00:00:22.460
So glad that all you ladies are here.

5
00:00:22.460 --> 00:00:24.860
We were having a delightful time.

6
00:00:24.860 --> 00:00:31.300
We always start before I record with prayer requests and praise reports, and it's just

7
00:00:31.300 --> 00:00:38.740
a beautiful time to come together, and the purpose of the Power Hour, God began to show

8
00:00:38.740 --> 00:00:49.720
me when we first started this last year, that we need to stand on His Word, and we need

9
00:00:49.880 --> 00:00:57.360
to know His promises so that we can internalize those promises, believe those promises, live

10
00:00:57.360 --> 00:01:01.040
those promises, stand on those promises.

11
00:01:01.040 --> 00:01:08.440
So every Wednesday, of course, we do a promise, we do a principle, we pray, and we leave with

12
00:01:08.440 --> 00:01:14.640
a practice, and that rolls us into Thursdays, and all of this is part of the Prosper Leader

13
00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:15.640
Membership.

14
00:01:15.800 --> 00:01:27.320
Thursdays, we've been doing a series, a 12-week immersion from pressure to partnership, and

15
00:01:27.320 --> 00:01:31.200
so that's where we go deeper.

16
00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:38.600
So we lay the foundation of the Word on Wednesdays, and then we do really deep dives on Thursdays,

17
00:01:38.600 --> 00:01:42.780
and then of course at 9, we do office hours where we work on your business.

18
00:01:42.780 --> 00:01:49.260
So we've been working through the Prosper Framework.

19
00:01:49.260 --> 00:01:57.300
So if you've read my book, Total Soul Prosperity, it's P-R-O-S-P-E-R, and each one of those

20
00:01:57.300 --> 00:02:02.940
stand for something, and it's a complete framework for transformation.

21
00:02:02.940 --> 00:02:06.140
It's something to go back over and over.

22
00:02:06.140 --> 00:02:13.500
It's God's recipe for total transformation, total soul prosperity.

23
00:02:13.500 --> 00:02:18.140
So today we're in the second P. There's two P's in Prosper.

24
00:02:18.140 --> 00:02:24.020
We're in the second P, which is Purpose and Identity.

25
00:02:24.020 --> 00:02:32.620
Now I put Purpose first to have the acronym work, but what you're going to learn today

26
00:02:32.620 --> 00:02:42.780
is that Identity comes before Purpose, and that's a really important distinction.

27
00:02:42.780 --> 00:02:46.540
And so we're going to break that down today.

28
00:02:46.540 --> 00:02:52.620
So Holy Spirit, we just invite you to move, to open our spiritual senses today, to let

29
00:02:52.620 --> 00:02:57.940
us hear your Word and internalize your Word and live your Word.

30
00:02:57.940 --> 00:03:03.500
May you be glorified, may the words of our mouth, the meditation of our heart be pleasing

31
00:03:03.500 --> 00:03:05.460
in your sight.

32
00:03:05.460 --> 00:03:13.940
So Identity before Purpose.

33
00:03:13.940 --> 00:03:21.380
See the common question out there right now that the women are often asking, and that

34
00:03:21.380 --> 00:03:27.700
just comes up in our mind and in our head, you know, what am I supposed to do?

35
00:03:28.460 --> 00:03:30.700
What's my next assignment?

36
00:03:30.700 --> 00:03:34.860
Who am I called to serve?

37
00:03:34.860 --> 00:03:37.860
What should I be building?

38
00:03:37.860 --> 00:03:39.860
Why am I not further along?

39
00:03:39.860 --> 00:03:42.940
What does God want for me in the season, right?

40
00:03:42.940 --> 00:03:47.500
Are those familiar, you know, questions to you?

41
00:03:47.500 --> 00:03:56.940
But beneath those questions, underneath those questions, there's a deeper, a deeper question,

42
00:03:56.940 --> 00:04:01.860
a super important question.

43
00:04:01.860 --> 00:04:12.300
Who am I when I'm not producing, when I'm not building, when I'm not working, when I'm

44
00:04:12.300 --> 00:04:20.700
not creating, who am I?

45
00:04:20.700 --> 00:04:22.620
This is, this is super important.

46
00:04:22.620 --> 00:04:34.100
You see, we can't walk freely in our purpose if we're living from a false identity.

47
00:04:34.100 --> 00:04:39.060
Now what do I mean false identity?

48
00:04:39.060 --> 00:04:44.900
That I have to prove myself, or here's a big one for ladies, that I have to hold everything

49
00:04:44.900 --> 00:04:51.900
together, as if the universe was relying on us, right?

50
00:04:51.900 --> 00:05:00.020
That we get our, we actually get our self-worth, like, like we think we're only valuable.

51
00:05:00.960 --> 00:05:02.700
when we're producing.

52
00:05:04.400 --> 00:05:07.520
I know, I often, do you ladies?

53
00:05:07.520 --> 00:05:11.080
I often judge myself this way.

54
00:05:11.080 --> 00:05:12.560
Oh, this is a bad day.

55
00:05:12.560 --> 00:05:14.000
I didn't get enough done.

56
00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:15.000
I didn't do enough.

57
00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:17.160
I didn't produce enough, right?

58
00:05:17.160 --> 00:05:20.440
And I'll be judging myself.

59
00:05:20.440 --> 00:05:23.680
I'll go, oh wow, this was not a good day.

60
00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:26.200
I didn't get enough done.

61
00:05:26.200 --> 00:05:28.080
And then I've trained myself now.

62
00:05:28.080 --> 00:05:29.560
Wait a minute, wait a minute.

63
00:05:30.160 --> 00:05:33.060
Is that old identity thinking

64
00:05:33.060 --> 00:05:36.800
that my worth comes from my doing?

65
00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:38.560
And I'll back up and I'll go,

66
00:05:39.840 --> 00:05:43.360
did you have time with the Lord this morning?

67
00:05:43.360 --> 00:05:44.480
Yeah, yeah, I did.

68
00:05:44.480 --> 00:05:45.900
It was sweet.

69
00:05:45.900 --> 00:05:47.800
Did you grow in the Word?

70
00:05:47.800 --> 00:05:50.480
Yeah, yeah, I did.

71
00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:53.360
And did you worship me today

72
00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:55.060
when you turned on that worship music,

73
00:05:55.060 --> 00:05:56.360
when you were taking a shower?

74
00:05:56.360 --> 00:05:58.880
Did you just feel my presence today?

75
00:05:58.880 --> 00:06:01.920
Yeah, actually I did.

76
00:06:01.920 --> 00:06:04.280
And did you talk to me

77
00:06:04.280 --> 00:06:07.400
when you were walking the dog today?

78
00:06:07.400 --> 00:06:11.920
Did you ask me to lead and are you seeking wisdom?

79
00:06:11.920 --> 00:06:13.080
Yeah, yeah.

80
00:06:13.920 --> 00:06:16.760
And did you have some calls?

81
00:06:16.760 --> 00:06:21.040
Did you post some inspirational things on social media?

82
00:06:21.040 --> 00:06:22.160
Yeah.

83
00:06:22.160 --> 00:06:23.400
Did you have some great calls?

84
00:06:23.400 --> 00:06:24.360
Yeah.

85
00:06:24.360 --> 00:06:27.200
And why are you judging yourself so harshly

86
00:06:27.200 --> 00:06:29.400
like this is a wasted day?

87
00:06:29.400 --> 00:06:31.600
And I don't know if any of you ladies ever feel that way,

88
00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:33.380
but I always feel like I'm behind.

89
00:06:33.380 --> 00:06:35.400
Like I always should be somewhere else.

90
00:06:35.400 --> 00:06:37.280
I always should be doing more.

91
00:06:37.280 --> 00:06:39.320
It's never enough.

92
00:06:39.320 --> 00:06:41.040
And it's an endless cycle.

93
00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:42.720
It doesn't matter how much you're making,

94
00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:43.920
how many clients you have.

95
00:06:43.920 --> 00:06:48.920
Like that feeling is actually deep-rooted old programming.

96
00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:52.240
Right?

97
00:06:52.240 --> 00:06:57.240
And so when we live from this false identity

98
00:06:57.800 --> 00:07:01.680
that my worth comes by what I do

99
00:07:03.120 --> 00:07:06.520
instead of my true identity,

100
00:07:06.520 --> 00:07:10.000
that my worth comes from who I am,

101
00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:15.000
which comes from who God says that I am, right?

102
00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:21.360
So the false identity says I'm only valuable

103
00:07:21.560 --> 00:07:23.320
when I'm producing.

104
00:07:23.320 --> 00:07:28.120
And I gotta be so careful not to disappoint anyone,

105
00:07:28.120 --> 00:07:30.200
not let anyone down, right?

106
00:07:30.200 --> 00:07:34.080
And I'm behind and I'm not enough and I'm too old

107
00:07:34.080 --> 00:07:39.040
and I'm not qualified and I'm not good at this.

108
00:07:39.040 --> 00:07:39.880
Right?

109
00:07:42.520 --> 00:07:44.040
Collette, thank you.

110
00:07:44.040 --> 00:07:46.080
She says, I'm always amazed

111
00:07:46.080 --> 00:07:47.640
at what comes out of your mouth.

112
00:07:47.640 --> 00:07:51.080
It's almost like you're reading my mind.

113
00:07:51.800 --> 00:07:54.360
It's the Lord's heart for you, sister.

114
00:07:54.360 --> 00:07:56.120
I'm just a messenger.

115
00:07:56.120 --> 00:08:01.120
So today is not about finding another assignment.

116
00:08:02.400 --> 00:08:07.040
It's about coming home to who you really are.

117
00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:11.080
And so our promise today, we've got several scriptures.

118
00:08:11.080 --> 00:08:16.080
Our promise today is Isaiah 43, one.

119
00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:19.920
We're going to do an Old Testament and a New Testament.

120
00:08:19.920 --> 00:08:24.920
So in the Old Testament, Isaiah 43, one.

121
00:08:25.720 --> 00:08:27.240
Does anybody have that?

122
00:08:28.200 --> 00:08:31.000
And tell us what translation you're reading from.

123
00:08:45.800 --> 00:08:46.800
Anybody have that?

124
00:08:47.760 --> 00:08:49.680
Isaiah 43, one.

125
00:08:50.680 --> 00:08:51.520
I'm almost there.

126
00:08:51.520 --> 00:08:52.360
I can get it for you.

127
00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:53.200
Okay, perfect.

128
00:08:53.200 --> 00:08:54.040
Okay.

129
00:08:54.040 --> 00:08:59.040
It is the new international version.

130
00:09:00.920 --> 00:09:02.080
Okay.

131
00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:07.080
And it says, but now this is what the Lord says.

132
00:09:08.760 --> 00:09:13.480
He who created you, Jacob, he who formed you, Israel,

133
00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:17.240
do not fear for I have redeemed you.

134
00:09:17.240 --> 00:09:21.040
I have summoned you by name.

135
00:09:21.040 --> 00:09:22.920
You are mine.

136
00:09:22.920 --> 00:09:24.760
Nice, beautiful.

137
00:09:24.760 --> 00:09:26.920
Anybody else have a different translation?

138
00:09:32.360 --> 00:09:35.960
I have a modern English version.

139
00:09:35.960 --> 00:09:36.800
Okay.

140
00:09:36.800 --> 00:09:39.840
And it says, but now thus says the Lord

141
00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:44.840
who created you, oh Jacob, and he who formed you, oh Israel,

142
00:09:44.880 --> 00:09:47.280
do not fear for I have redeemed you.

143
00:09:47.280 --> 00:09:49.280
I have called you by your name.

144
00:09:49.280 --> 00:09:51.000
You are mine.

145
00:09:51.000 --> 00:09:51.840
I love that.

146
00:09:51.840 --> 00:09:53.280
Thank you.

147
00:09:53.280 --> 00:09:58.280
So it opens with do not fear, and then it says,

148
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:11.840
says, I have redeemed you. I have called you by name. You are mine.

149
00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:29.200
I have redeemed you. I've called you by name. You are mine.

150
00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:40.880
See, before God speaks about your assignment, he speaks about your belonging.

151
00:10:43.360 --> 00:10:49.600
Before he tells you what to do, he reminds you who you are.

152
00:10:49.600 --> 00:11:04.000
We get this twisted. We get this backwards. He calls you by name. You belong to him now.

153
00:11:04.880 --> 00:11:14.800
This is where identity begins. Not with your title, not with your business, not with your income,

154
00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:23.680
not with your marital status, not with your mistakes, not what other people have called you,

155
00:11:24.640 --> 00:11:33.360
not even what you've called yourself. Identity begins with you are mine.

156
00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:41.920
You are mine. Just let that settle in for a minute. You are mine.

157
00:11:43.760 --> 00:11:53.200
Now, let's go to the New Testament. Let's go to John, when Jesus is talking. John 15, 16.

158
00:11:53.360 --> 00:12:03.760
John 15, 16. These go hand in hand. So here's Jesus talking to us. John 15, 16.

159
00:12:03.760 --> 00:12:33.280
John 15, 16. I have it. Okay. All right. It's that. Sorry. It's the NIV. And it is

160
00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:42.480
he long to fill his stomach with the pods that the pigs were eating. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm in Luke.

161
00:12:42.480 --> 00:12:48.960
You said John? Yeah. John 15, 16. It's funny that you did that because we're going to go there.

162
00:12:49.520 --> 00:12:54.240
I literally had it and it flipped my page. You're being prophetic there on that one.

163
00:12:54.240 --> 00:13:02.000
No, it flipped my page. I had it. We're going there. Oh, awesome. I love it. Okay. Hold on.

164
00:13:02.800 --> 00:13:12.880
You said 16, right? Yeah. John 15, 16. Okay. You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed

165
00:13:12.880 --> 00:13:22.000
you so that you might go and bear fruit, fruit that will last. And so that whatever you ask

166
00:13:22.000 --> 00:13:28.720
in my name, the father will give you. Love that. Anybody else have a different translation?

167
00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:44.080
Okay. In the modern English version again, you did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed

168
00:13:44.080 --> 00:13:50.000
you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should remain that the father may

169
00:13:50.000 --> 00:14:00.960
give you whatever you ask him in my name. Love that. Love that. Thank you. So let's break that

170
00:14:00.960 --> 00:14:12.720
down one sentence at a time. I chose you, right? We didn't choose God. God chose us. I chose you.

171
00:14:14.240 --> 00:14:25.360
I appointed you. So you're chosen. You're appointed. I placed you. In other words, I

172
00:14:25.360 --> 00:14:37.760
purposely planted you and I intend for you to bear fruit and I intend for that fruit to remain.

173
00:14:39.600 --> 00:14:44.000
So your life is not random. It's not an accident.

174
00:14:47.680 --> 00:14:52.640
You're not too late. You're not too old. All those stories. You're not too experienced. You're not too

175
00:14:52.640 --> 00:15:00.000
all that stuff, right? You've been purposely planted.

176
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:06.640
Just think about that for a minute.

177
00:15:06.640 --> 00:15:15.960
Purposely planted, the place where you are right now, that might not be your final destination,

178
00:15:15.960 --> 00:15:20.240
but it's not meaningless.

179
00:15:20.240 --> 00:15:25.400
I love, I mean, I always, in my mind, I always combine that with the fact in Romans that

180
00:15:25.400 --> 00:15:28.440
everything's working together for my good.

181
00:15:28.440 --> 00:15:31.600
So here I am, I'm purposely planted.

182
00:15:31.600 --> 00:15:37.920
I may not like a situation, I may want things to change, God may have a bigger vision coming

183
00:15:37.920 --> 00:15:47.560
forward, but right now at this moment, everything's good and I'm purposely planted.

184
00:15:47.560 --> 00:15:52.080
And so God can take your experience, your training, your pain, your restoration, your

185
00:15:52.080 --> 00:15:58.080
voice, your relationships, your business, your testimony, your gifts, even the seasons

186
00:15:58.120 --> 00:16:03.520
that you thought were wasted, and pull it all together.

187
00:16:03.520 --> 00:16:11.440
Let's do one more, Ephesians 2.10, Ephesians 2.10.

188
00:16:11.440 --> 00:16:23.920
This is one of my favorite, favorite scriptures, Ephesians 2.10, Ephesians 2.10.

189
00:16:28.080 --> 00:16:42.720
I have it in the Passion Translation.

190
00:16:42.720 --> 00:16:47.320
Okay, let's do the Passion Translation.

191
00:16:47.320 --> 00:16:54.520
We have become his poetry, a recreated people that will fulfill the destiny he has given

192
00:16:54.520 --> 00:16:55.520
each of us.

193
00:16:55.520 --> 00:16:59.920
For we are joined to Jesus, the anointed one.

194
00:16:59.920 --> 00:17:07.560
Even before we were born, God planned in advance our destiny and good works we would do to

195
00:17:07.560 --> 00:17:08.560
fulfill it.

196
00:17:08.560 --> 00:17:09.560
Love that.

197
00:17:09.560 --> 00:17:13.560
I love the poetry part, I don't know about you all.

198
00:17:13.560 --> 00:17:20.480
Well, I do too, because when it says, other translations say we are his workmanship, and

199
00:17:20.480 --> 00:17:24.079
that word workmanship is poema.

200
00:17:24.640 --> 00:17:27.640
So it literally is, we are God's poetry.

201
00:17:27.640 --> 00:17:32.560
Yeah, that's an accurate translation in the Passion.

202
00:17:32.560 --> 00:17:36.960
When it says we are his workmanship, we are his poema.

203
00:17:36.960 --> 00:17:39.640
That's the original word there.

204
00:17:39.640 --> 00:17:41.240
We are his poetry.

205
00:17:41.240 --> 00:17:49.120
Is that just not astounding to think that God looks at you and says, you're my poetry?

206
00:17:49.120 --> 00:17:51.120
How fun.

207
00:17:51.120 --> 00:17:54.000
How fun.

208
00:17:54.000 --> 00:17:57.360
But also notice the order.

209
00:17:57.360 --> 00:18:00.360
I've been in all the verses today.

210
00:18:00.360 --> 00:18:03.640
It's really important to notice what comes first.

211
00:18:03.640 --> 00:18:09.480
Notice the order, because what gets messed up is we get these out of order.

212
00:18:09.480 --> 00:18:15.280
So notice the order, first, first, first, first, you are his workmanship.

213
00:18:15.280 --> 00:18:16.760
You are his poetry.

214
00:18:16.760 --> 00:18:18.360
You are his poema.

215
00:18:18.360 --> 00:18:19.880
That comes first.

216
00:18:19.880 --> 00:18:20.880
You are his workmanship.

217
00:18:20.880 --> 00:18:21.880
That's who you are.

218
00:18:21.880 --> 00:18:28.400
Then you walk in the work he prepared.

219
00:18:28.400 --> 00:18:29.760
You see that?

220
00:18:29.760 --> 00:18:32.680
That distinction is so important.

221
00:18:32.680 --> 00:18:37.160
You are his masterpiece before you complete.

222
00:18:37.160 --> 00:18:43.080
He is not putting that in opposite order.

223
00:18:43.080 --> 00:18:47.480
Do the work and you'll be my poetry.

224
00:18:47.480 --> 00:18:50.240
That's how many of us were raised.

225
00:18:50.240 --> 00:18:53.160
Do the work and you'll get a smile from the parents.

226
00:18:53.160 --> 00:18:55.480
If you don't, you get a frown, right?

227
00:18:55.480 --> 00:18:57.600
You get a scolding.

228
00:18:57.600 --> 00:19:02.640
So we learned that our value was tied to our works.

229
00:19:02.640 --> 00:19:04.360
This is opposite.

230
00:19:04.360 --> 00:19:07.280
God looks down and says, oh, my precious poetry.

231
00:19:07.280 --> 00:19:10.800
Just look at you, poetry in motion.

232
00:19:10.800 --> 00:19:15.360
And you're like, God, don't you understand all my flaws and I didn't do enough?

233
00:19:15.360 --> 00:19:18.040
And I feel like I'm disappointing you.

234
00:19:18.040 --> 00:19:25.080
No, who you are, who you are, who he says you are, right?

235
00:19:25.080 --> 00:19:28.960
So your value doesn't come from the work.

236
00:19:28.960 --> 00:19:30.960
This is super important.

237
00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:34.400
We have attached our worth to our work.

238
00:19:34.400 --> 00:19:37.840
And this is a very dangerous thing.

239
00:19:37.840 --> 00:19:40.200
What happens when you can't work?

240
00:19:40.200 --> 00:19:44.200
Well, that's what happens a lot in our society with our seniors.

241
00:19:44.200 --> 00:19:50.040
They're depressed or they lose their job and they're suicidal.

242
00:19:50.040 --> 00:19:58.520
It's such a dangerous place to be attaching our worth to our work.

243
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:08.500
Our worth is based on who we are, our identity, and our identity is based on who God says we are.

244
00:20:08.500 --> 00:20:13.500
Who's getting something from this? Who's getting an aha right now?

245
00:20:13.500 --> 00:20:17.500
Who's getting something jumping out at them right now?

246
00:20:17.500 --> 00:20:29.500
It's interesting because I've been studying with Jamie Winship, and it's all on identity example, right?

247
00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:38.000
And so I've been going, they have a free, like, 21 day, and it's so great.

248
00:20:38.000 --> 00:20:51.000
Like, it's just tapping in, and I just, I am really, really, between that and my life, coaching, my renewal, and my licensing is all around self-identity, working with these trafficked women.

249
00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:57.000
But, you know, I've learned that I'm like, I am not who I, what I do.

250
00:20:57.000 --> 00:21:01.000
I am who he says I am, an encourager of hope.

251
00:21:01.000 --> 00:21:08.000
And, you know, Brenda, I've always said this when I do presentations, you are dearly loved and chosen.

252
00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:17.000
And yesterday I had the opportunity to pray with one of the nurses that was taking my mom through hospice stuff.

253
00:21:18.000 --> 00:21:24.000
And I told her about my mom praying with women and, you know, praying at the table, right?

254
00:21:24.000 --> 00:21:28.000
This 95-year-old woman that had very little left of life.

255
00:21:28.000 --> 00:21:31.000
And she was like, oh my gosh, she could pray for me.

256
00:21:31.000 --> 00:21:33.000
And I go, well, I can pray for you.

257
00:21:33.000 --> 00:21:35.000
I go, what would you like to pray about?

258
00:21:35.000 --> 00:21:37.000
And I prayed about her identity.

259
00:21:37.000 --> 00:21:39.000
She went through a divorce a year ago.

260
00:21:39.000 --> 00:21:41.000
It was very bitter.

261
00:21:41.000 --> 00:21:44.000
And she was just crying on the phone.

262
00:21:44.000 --> 00:21:46.000
And she just, she said, you made me cry.

263
00:21:46.000 --> 00:21:48.000
And I go, no, this wasn't about me.

264
00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:50.000
I said, but go back to the father.

265
00:21:50.000 --> 00:21:52.000
Start asking about your identity.

266
00:21:52.000 --> 00:22:03.000
And I was crying with her because I'm like, Lord, you are opening up a new place, a new season, a new shift in me so that I can help others.

267
00:22:03.000 --> 00:22:07.000
And that was a God win, right?

268
00:22:07.000 --> 00:22:13.000
So I had to share that because I'm like, oh my gosh, it is so spot on to what I, my training is right now.

269
00:22:13.000 --> 00:22:15.000
So I love it.

270
00:22:15.000 --> 00:22:19.000
It just lights me up because it is breakthrough for women.

271
00:22:19.000 --> 00:22:21.000
We have to know who we are in him.

272
00:22:21.000 --> 00:22:27.000
We've got to, you know, we cannot really serve a great purpose if we don't have that.

273
00:22:27.000 --> 00:22:29.000
Right.

274
00:22:29.000 --> 00:22:30.000
Yeah.

275
00:22:30.000 --> 00:22:31.000
So good.

276
00:22:31.000 --> 00:22:33.000
It just lights me up for sharing that.

277
00:22:34.000 --> 00:22:48.000
Anybody else having an aha, is something shifting for you?

278
00:22:48.000 --> 00:22:50.000
I needed to hear this.

279
00:22:50.000 --> 00:22:53.000
Love that.

280
00:22:53.000 --> 00:22:54.000
Okay.

281
00:22:55.000 --> 00:23:03.000
So, so God's, what's really important here is we notice the order.

282
00:23:03.000 --> 00:23:05.000
You are his workmanship.

283
00:23:05.000 --> 00:23:07.000
You are his poetry.

284
00:23:07.000 --> 00:23:13.000
And then you walk in the work that he prepared.

285
00:23:13.000 --> 00:23:18.000
So you're a masterpiece before you complete the assignment.

286
00:23:18.000 --> 00:23:21.000
So your value doesn't come from your work.

287
00:23:21.000 --> 00:23:25.000
The work flows from who you already are.

288
00:23:25.000 --> 00:23:28.000
It's where you're coming from.

289
00:23:28.000 --> 00:23:30.000
You're not trying to get somewhere.

290
00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:39.000
You're not trying to be good enough to earn enough to be valuable enough to, you're not trying to get somewhere.

291
00:23:39.000 --> 00:23:41.000
You're coming from somewhere.

292
00:23:41.000 --> 00:23:50.000
Like Kim said, imagine how things change when, when, when you're coming from, imagine how things change when you're, you're coming from.

293
00:23:51.000 --> 00:23:52.000
I'm so loved.

294
00:23:52.000 --> 00:23:56.000
I'm, I'm, I'm actually chosen by God.

295
00:23:56.000 --> 00:24:00.000
I'm God's poema.

296
00:24:00.000 --> 00:24:03.000
He's, he's appointed me.

297
00:24:03.000 --> 00:24:06.000
He's anointed me.

298
00:24:06.000 --> 00:24:08.000
He's, he's set me apart.

299
00:24:08.000 --> 00:24:13.000
He's, he's prepared a work for me.

300
00:24:14.000 --> 00:24:18.000
It's coming from fullness.

301
00:24:18.000 --> 00:24:21.000
It's coming from abundance.

302
00:24:21.000 --> 00:24:24.000
It's not coming from lack and emptiness.

303
00:24:24.000 --> 00:24:32.000
If I can just get, if I can just do enough, if I can just be enough, it's coming from identity.

304
00:24:33.000 --> 00:24:44.000
And from that identity, you step into the divine assignment, which you're not doing alone.

305
00:24:44.000 --> 00:24:45.000
We're co-heirs.

306
00:24:45.000 --> 00:24:47.000
We're co-partners, right?

307
00:24:47.000 --> 00:24:48.000
We're co-risen.

308
00:24:48.000 --> 00:24:54.000
We're co-, so, so then we're doing that in partnership.

309
00:24:54.000 --> 00:24:56.000
Okay, God, what are we going to do today?

310
00:24:56.000 --> 00:24:59.000
What's our, what's our adventure today?

311
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:12.700
And it's that image, right, of being yoked together, and we're yoked together with Jesus.

312
00:25:12.700 --> 00:25:21.620
So it just changes this whole striving and stressing and all of that.

313
00:25:21.620 --> 00:25:34.880
And so when we come from the place, from who God says that you are, you can walk in a confidence

314
00:25:34.880 --> 00:25:43.380
and a purpose that he's already prepared for you, and then your life does bear fruit.

315
00:25:43.380 --> 00:25:52.860
So I think what, I think one of my favorite, and I wrote about this in my book to help

316
00:25:52.860 --> 00:26:01.860
understand it, years ago I heard this and it just moved me, and it's the story of Michelangelo.

317
00:26:01.860 --> 00:26:07.920
And when someone asked him, I don't get it, how do you just take this block of stone,

318
00:26:07.920 --> 00:26:16.360
this block of marble, like this chunk, and create something so beautiful?

319
00:26:16.360 --> 00:26:22.560
Like the statue of David, like if you've ever been to the Louvre, it's incredible, the details

320
00:26:22.560 --> 00:26:28.160
and the amazing handiwork, how do you do that?

321
00:26:28.160 --> 00:26:31.040
And he said, it's simple.

322
00:26:31.040 --> 00:26:39.480
I simply chip away everything that is not David.

323
00:26:39.480 --> 00:26:50.520
What a powerful metaphor that here we are, we already have this identity of who God says

324
00:26:50.520 --> 00:26:59.400
we are, and now to walk that out in beauty in the poema that God speaks about in Ephesians,

325
00:26:59.400 --> 00:27:09.120
it's chipping away all the stuff that is not lined up with that.

326
00:27:09.120 --> 00:27:16.920
The titles, the labels, the belief systems that others have put on us and expectations

327
00:27:16.920 --> 00:27:28.200
that others have put on us, or we've put on ourself, it's chipping away everything that

328
00:27:28.200 --> 00:27:37.240
is not David, that is not Amanda, that is not Colette, that is not Christine, that is

329
00:27:37.240 --> 00:27:51.120
not Kim, right, that is not Natalie, that is not that poema, God's poetry, created before

330
00:27:51.120 --> 00:27:54.720
the foundation of the earth.

331
00:27:54.720 --> 00:28:08.800
So it's so beautiful when we chip away the fear-based that we've adopted for survival.

332
00:28:08.800 --> 00:28:16.040
We chip away the belief that your value comes from productivity or the need to be needed

333
00:28:16.040 --> 00:28:22.760
or the need to prove, how about that one, the need to prove, any of you do that?

334
00:28:22.800 --> 00:28:31.480
I mean, often I just get out there and I just like over, over-deliver, right, just proving,

335
00:28:31.480 --> 00:28:42.600
right, it's old, it's old stuff, the need to receive people's approval, right?

336
00:28:42.600 --> 00:29:01.600
So, you know, in scripture, in Exodus, in Exodus there's the story of Moses and he is

337
00:29:01.600 --> 00:29:06.800
in the second season of his life, he spent 40 years in the palace, now he's spending

338
00:29:06.880 --> 00:29:16.960
40 years tending sheep that are not his own and God attracts his attention with the burning bush

339
00:29:18.400 --> 00:29:25.920
and the bush is on fire but it's not burning up and it gets his attention and he goes there and

340
00:29:25.920 --> 00:29:33.760
God tells him to take off his shoes because he's on holy ground and Moses wants to know,

341
00:29:33.760 --> 00:29:40.480
who are you? God gives him his assignment, he says, who do I say sent me, who are you?

342
00:29:42.080 --> 00:29:56.720
And God says, I am, I am. These are the most powerful words on the planet, they're the name

343
00:29:56.720 --> 00:30:00.160
of God and

344
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:05.000
Language is so important because when we speak words,

345
00:30:08.280 --> 00:30:13.280
we're speaking these packets of energy that actually,

346
00:30:15.800 --> 00:30:19.600
I mean, the power of life and death is in the tongue, right?

347
00:30:20.680 --> 00:30:24.240
Scripture says our words condemn us, our words justify,

348
00:30:24.240 --> 00:30:28.160
like our words, you know, Jesus would say,

349
00:30:28.160 --> 00:30:31.820
say to the mountain, be thou removed.

350
00:30:33.280 --> 00:30:37.320
If you believe in your heart and you speak with your mouth,

351
00:30:37.320 --> 00:30:39.720
there's so much in scripture about our words.

352
00:30:39.720 --> 00:30:42.800
Our words are so powerful.

353
00:30:44.220 --> 00:30:47.920
And the two most powerful of all our words are I am.

354
00:30:49.680 --> 00:30:52.760
And yet we have to become so conscious.

355
00:30:53.760 --> 00:30:58.760
What do we normally put after the words I am?

356
00:31:03.660 --> 00:31:05.420
Think about the things we say.

357
00:31:08.120 --> 00:31:10.420
I'm just sick and tired of.

358
00:31:17.440 --> 00:31:20.480
We speak these words.

359
00:31:23.600 --> 00:31:27.840
And they enter our being.

360
00:31:27.840 --> 00:31:29.080
So we have to be so careful.

361
00:31:29.080 --> 00:31:33.940
If you wouldn't say it about God, we say, I'm broke.

362
00:31:35.780 --> 00:31:38.000
I'm exhausted.

363
00:31:38.000 --> 00:31:41.060
I'm overwhelmed.

364
00:31:41.060 --> 00:31:43.440
I'm behind.

365
00:31:43.440 --> 00:31:47.560
And then we have all the I am nots too, right?

366
00:31:47.560 --> 00:31:50.920
I am not good at, I am not a speaker.

367
00:31:50.920 --> 00:31:52.460
I am not a leader.

368
00:31:53.040 --> 00:31:56.600
Then we've got the, I'm too much, right?

369
00:31:56.600 --> 00:31:58.760
I'm too, right?

370
00:31:58.760 --> 00:32:00.360
So we've got all of these things

371
00:32:00.360 --> 00:32:04.060
we're putting after the I ams.

372
00:32:05.760 --> 00:32:07.960
And I'm too much and I'm not.

373
00:32:09.320 --> 00:32:13.240
And those statements may describe an emotion

374
00:32:13.240 --> 00:32:14.960
that we're feeling that's very real.

375
00:32:14.960 --> 00:32:17.480
It may describe a circumstance.

376
00:32:17.480 --> 00:32:18.960
It can be fear.

377
00:32:18.960 --> 00:32:22.200
It can be learned belief.

378
00:32:22.200 --> 00:32:27.200
But they don't carry the authority to define your identity.

379
00:32:29.920 --> 00:32:31.840
Our identity is different.

380
00:32:33.200 --> 00:32:38.200
Our identity is received from the one who created us.

381
00:32:41.640 --> 00:32:45.240
So I always say,

382
00:32:45.240 --> 00:32:48.480
awareness is the first step to transformation.

383
00:32:48.480 --> 00:32:50.660
So one of the most important things to take

384
00:32:50.660 --> 00:32:53.220
from this lesson, and then we're gonna go into prayer,

385
00:32:53.220 --> 00:32:55.100
is awareness.

386
00:32:55.100 --> 00:32:57.660
Start being conscious.

387
00:32:57.660 --> 00:33:01.440
Scripture says, guard, stand guard at my mouth.

388
00:33:02.940 --> 00:33:05.900
Being conscious of what we're speaking,

389
00:33:05.900 --> 00:33:10.060
especially to tender ones like our children.

390
00:33:11.900 --> 00:33:13.240
Be conscious.

391
00:33:14.500 --> 00:33:19.500
So instead of saying, I am a failure,

392
00:33:20.660 --> 00:33:23.060
that's identity stuff.

393
00:33:23.060 --> 00:33:28.060
We could say, I experienced a disappointment,

394
00:33:28.180 --> 00:33:30.160
but I'm still God's workmanship.

395
00:33:31.380 --> 00:33:32.420
That was frustrating.

396
00:33:32.420 --> 00:33:33.780
That was disappointing.

397
00:33:33.780 --> 00:33:36.200
That didn't come out the way I hoped,

398
00:33:37.100 --> 00:33:41.460
but I'm still God's poema, right?

399
00:33:43.180 --> 00:33:45.820
Instead of, I'm behind,

400
00:33:46.820 --> 00:33:51.820
we can say, I don't understand the timing,

401
00:33:54.180 --> 00:33:55.740
but I'm still being led.

402
00:33:57.100 --> 00:33:58.460
God's timing is perfect.

403
00:33:58.460 --> 00:34:00.560
I'm led by the Holy Spirit.

404
00:34:01.980 --> 00:34:04.780
You see how we can change our atmosphere

405
00:34:04.780 --> 00:34:07.140
by changing our words.

406
00:34:09.340 --> 00:34:12.659
Instead of, I'm not enough,

407
00:34:13.659 --> 00:34:17.159
because I was never meant to be my own source,

408
00:34:17.159 --> 00:34:19.100
I can say, I'm not enough,

409
00:34:19.100 --> 00:34:21.380
but God's grace is sufficient for me.

410
00:34:24.699 --> 00:34:29.020
Instead of, I'm not good at sales,

411
00:34:29.020 --> 00:34:30.460
or whatever you put that in,

412
00:34:30.460 --> 00:34:33.620
I'm not good at speaking, I'm not good at sales,

413
00:34:36.380 --> 00:34:41.179
we can say, I'm learning to communicate.

414
00:34:43.659 --> 00:34:47.500
I'm learning to communicate value, listen well,

415
00:34:47.500 --> 00:34:49.060
make clear invitation.

416
00:34:49.060 --> 00:34:54.060
So you can always talk about, I'm growing, I'm improving.

417
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:10.000
You automatically turned to Luke 15, Amanda, which I added in my notes.

418
00:35:10.000 --> 00:35:17.440
I love that, and I don't have time to go into it today, but I do encourage you to read the

419
00:35:17.440 --> 00:35:24.400
story of the prodigal son, and not the way that we typically read it, that yeah, he rebelled,

420
00:35:24.400 --> 00:35:30.640
he asked his father for his inheritance before his father even died, and yeah, he went and

421
00:35:30.640 --> 00:35:38.040
he wasted it on, you know, prostitutes and drinking and all of that stuff, and he ended

422
00:35:38.040 --> 00:35:45.480
up in utter humiliation as a good Jewish boy, he was taking care of pigs.

423
00:35:45.480 --> 00:35:52.400
You didn't even touch a pig as a Jewish boy, let alone live in the pig pen and share the

424
00:35:52.400 --> 00:35:58.520
food, the care of pods with the pig, like this was the ultimate humiliation, but there's

425
00:35:58.520 --> 00:36:07.840
a really powerful word in there, in Luke 15, 17, it says, but when he came to himself,

426
00:36:07.840 --> 00:36:16.880
he didn't just come up with a better strategy, it says when he came to himself, and he started

427
00:36:16.920 --> 00:36:25.920
remembering, wow, my father had a house, my father had provision, my father had, I belong

428
00:36:25.920 --> 00:36:35.360
to someone, there's more in my father's house than here, he came to himself, but there's

429
00:36:35.360 --> 00:36:41.840
still something really missing in this story that you can catch, there's something really

430
00:36:41.840 --> 00:36:50.000
missing, he rehearses a speech, right, and when you listen to the speech, I'm no longer

431
00:36:50.000 --> 00:36:58.520
worthy to be called your son, make me like one of your hired servants, so he was returning

432
00:36:58.520 --> 00:37:06.440
to the father physically, but his internal, his spirit, he was still thinking like a slave,

433
00:37:06.440 --> 00:37:14.600
he was still thinking like a servant, this is important, because just like the prodigal

434
00:37:14.600 --> 00:37:23.080
son, he's returning to the father, he's going in the right direction, and the father's accepting,

435
00:37:23.080 --> 00:37:31.400
he's returning, but he hasn't changed, he hasn't renewed his mind, he's returning as

436
00:37:31.400 --> 00:37:38.280
a servant, he's returning as a slave, and unfortunately, there's too many of us women,

437
00:37:39.800 --> 00:37:49.400
we are say, and we are attempting to walk with God, you may read your Bible, you may go to church,

438
00:37:49.400 --> 00:37:56.760
you may, but if you're still doing it with an unrenewed mind that doesn't know your true identity

439
00:37:56.760 --> 00:38:07.000
and who God says you are, if you're still doing life as a slave, as a servant, you're missing so

440
00:38:07.000 --> 00:38:12.600
much, and we saw that, we saw that last week, you know, when we were talking about Mary and Martha,

441
00:38:13.960 --> 00:38:23.560
right, and so there's this tendency to get so busy doing that we literally make ourselves

442
00:38:23.560 --> 00:38:31.080
slaves, because of programming, because of conditioning, because of how we were taught,

443
00:38:31.080 --> 00:38:39.240
because of what was rewarded, so we may be walking with the father, and God's love is so,

444
00:38:39.880 --> 00:38:47.320
so great, and his grace is so incredible, but scripture says in Romans, we're transformed

445
00:38:47.320 --> 00:38:55.800
by the renewing of our mind, and the first renewing of our mind is not to change what we're

446
00:38:55.800 --> 00:39:04.040
doing, it's to change who we're being, it's not to change where we're going to, it's to change where

447
00:39:04.040 --> 00:39:15.400
we're coming from, and we're coming from, I'm so loved, I'm so chosen, I'm God's workmanship,

448
00:39:16.360 --> 00:39:30.120
I'm his poema, his poetry, I'm redeemed, I'm planted, and from that identity comes purpose,

449
00:39:31.480 --> 00:39:36.280
purpose doesn't come first, we don't set out and go, I just got to find my purpose,

450
00:39:37.560 --> 00:39:43.160
purpose comes from identity, of knowing who you are, and we don't create that identity,

451
00:39:43.320 --> 00:39:49.160
those are false identities that we've created, our true identity is lining up

452
00:39:50.840 --> 00:39:59.880
with what the word says, what God says about us, that's our true identity, and in

453
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:06.160
That is total freedom. Who the son sets free is free indeed. When you start understanding there's

454
00:40:06.160 --> 00:40:14.080
nothing I can do to make God love me more. There's nothing I can do to make God love me less.

455
00:40:16.400 --> 00:40:25.840
I am who he says I am and I can do what he says I can do. The chains just start falling off.

456
00:40:26.560 --> 00:40:36.720
It's a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful thing. So, you know, the father began to demonstrate that,

457
00:40:36.720 --> 00:40:44.560
to remind him, putting a ring on his finger to say, look, you still carry the family name,

458
00:40:44.560 --> 00:40:51.680
you still have authority. Putting the sandals on his dirty feet. Slaves walked around barefoot,

459
00:40:52.560 --> 00:40:56.960
Slaves walked around barefoot. Sons wore sandals.

460
00:40:59.360 --> 00:41:10.000
And so, getting clear that it's not first about performance. It's about position.

461
00:41:12.640 --> 00:41:17.440
It's not about performance. It's about position. You're not trying to work your way to the

462
00:41:17.440 --> 00:41:24.080
father's house. You're learning to live. You're learning to serve. You're learning to lead. You're

463
00:41:24.080 --> 00:41:31.280
learning to build. You're learning to create from the reality that you already belong.

464
00:41:32.320 --> 00:41:38.640
You're already a daughter of the Most High God to just walk around all day long and say, I

465
00:41:38.640 --> 00:41:49.360
am a daughter of the Most High. And get out of the orphan mentality. The orphan mentality of

466
00:41:49.360 --> 00:41:56.160
overworking to prove our value, of comparing our assignment to someone else's assignment, to

467
00:41:56.160 --> 00:42:04.800
to panic when results are slow, to to fear, you know, and confuse being needed

468
00:42:04.800 --> 00:42:13.200
with being called and to build from fear and to measure our worth by our income or our engagement

469
00:42:13.200 --> 00:42:21.200
or our rights or our approval, like feeling guilty when we rest, struggling to receive support,

470
00:42:21.200 --> 00:42:29.760
believing everything depends on all of this is the orphan spirit. It's not sonship. It's not

471
00:42:29.760 --> 00:42:39.840
daughtership. When our purpose flows from our daughterhood, we can obey without needing applause.

472
00:42:41.840 --> 00:42:47.600
We can work diligently without worshiping productivity.

473
00:42:50.880 --> 00:42:55.440
We can rest without losing our identity.

474
00:42:55.920 --> 00:43:05.520
We can receive help without shame. We can release assignments that have ended, that the season is passed.

475
00:43:07.520 --> 00:43:15.520
We can take courageous, this is big, we can take courageous action without needing to control the outcome.

476
00:43:19.920 --> 00:43:22.720
We can be visible without performing.

477
00:43:25.600 --> 00:43:35.520
We can serve from overflow and not from depletion. Seeing God's daughters depleted is the saddest thing in the whole world.

478
00:43:36.240 --> 00:43:50.320
How can you who carry that that are the temple of the Holy Spirit, who who carry the spirit of God in you, which is life, who has rivers of living water, how can you be depleted?

479
00:43:50.320 --> 00:43:58.160
How can you be depleted only when you're operating out of an orphan slave mentality?

480
00:43:59.520 --> 00:44:02.560
So we begin to allow God to define our success.

481
00:44:04.640 --> 00:44:11.040
All right, I don't want to run out of time. Let's take some time to pray and

482
00:44:11.200 --> 00:44:27.200
Tom, just enter into his presence to renew our mind, right, to renew a right spirit within us.

483
00:44:30.640 --> 00:44:32.400
Okay, who wants to pray first?

484
00:44:32.400 --> 00:44:45.440
Heavenly Father, we just come before you. We just have to say, wow, Lord, wow.

485
00:44:46.480 --> 00:44:53.520
Thank you for this blessing of a teaching from Brenda. The wise words that come from you, Lord.

486
00:44:54.960 --> 00:44:59.920
The the masterpiece of our purpose, knowing like that.

487
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:03.900
who we are in you, Lord Yahweh,

488
00:45:03.900 --> 00:45:08.600
Father, that we are your dearly loved and chosen daughters,

489
00:45:08.600 --> 00:45:09.760
Father.

490
00:45:09.760 --> 00:45:13.920
We come before you today in prayer and in praise.

491
00:45:13.920 --> 00:45:19.960
We thank you for the blessings that have come upon us,

492
00:45:19.960 --> 00:45:21.840
that have come before us, upon us,

493
00:45:21.840 --> 00:45:24.480
and that will come after, Lord.

494
00:45:24.480 --> 00:45:30.520
And we're so thankful for being in your presence, Lord.

495
00:45:30.520 --> 00:45:38.160
We thank you for the blessing of healing over Elin's hand

496
00:45:38.160 --> 00:45:41.600
and over Colette's hand for healing,

497
00:45:41.600 --> 00:45:45.360
Lord, the blessing of the hands and healing, Lord.

498
00:45:45.360 --> 00:45:50.640
We thank you, Father God, for the message of hope, Lord,

499
00:45:50.640 --> 00:45:56.560
that you have seated us upon today for each woman that

500
00:45:56.560 --> 00:46:02.520
is listening to this right now live and in the replay.

501
00:46:02.520 --> 00:46:08.800
Father, we thank you for bringing upon us prayer

502
00:46:08.800 --> 00:46:11.840
over the men in our lives, Lord.

503
00:46:11.840 --> 00:46:17.920
Whether they are young, whether they are grandkids, Lord,

504
00:46:17.920 --> 00:46:21.000
whether they are grown men, elderly,

505
00:46:21.000 --> 00:46:24.640
whatever that looks like, our fathers, grandfathers,

506
00:46:24.640 --> 00:46:27.880
each and every man, Lord, that they

507
00:46:27.880 --> 00:46:31.400
may know that they are your masterpiece

508
00:46:31.400 --> 00:46:36.480
and that, Lord, that they understand the I am's

509
00:46:36.480 --> 00:46:39.920
and the wholeness that you have for each and every one of them,

510
00:46:39.920 --> 00:46:45.040
Lord, that they would take down the guard,

511
00:46:45.040 --> 00:46:52.120
take down the ego, the things of the world that has allowed

512
00:46:52.120 --> 00:46:58.080
them to look strong, but to render their souls, Lord,

513
00:46:58.080 --> 00:47:04.640
so that they, too, can see how blessed they are, Lord,

514
00:47:04.640 --> 00:47:09.240
that the I am's, Lord, are dearly loved and chosen as well,

515
00:47:09.240 --> 00:47:13.520
Father, that we do not forget the strength of the men

516
00:47:13.520 --> 00:47:19.760
in our lives, that we do not play small roles with them,

517
00:47:19.760 --> 00:47:24.200
Lord, that we are encouragers of hope for those

518
00:47:24.200 --> 00:47:27.520
that are around us, Lord, that we just thank you

519
00:47:27.520 --> 00:47:28.520
for all of that.

520
00:47:28.520 --> 00:47:32.600
We thank you for the encouragement

521
00:47:32.600 --> 00:47:36.120
of each and every one of these wise women in this group,

522
00:47:36.120 --> 00:47:41.880
Lord, for there would be blessings of redemption

523
00:47:41.880 --> 00:47:45.480
and healing and a breakthrough, Father God,

524
00:47:45.480 --> 00:47:50.120
that we would see ourselves in a whole new light, Lord,

525
00:47:50.120 --> 00:47:53.520
and that we move forward in that light

526
00:47:53.520 --> 00:47:57.200
so that our purpose would really be the salt of this earth,

527
00:47:57.200 --> 00:47:59.320
Lord, for your glory.

528
00:47:59.320 --> 00:48:02.960
Just thank you for this, Lord, in your heavenly name.

529
00:48:02.960 --> 00:48:03.460
Amen.

530
00:48:11.880 --> 00:48:12.380
Amen.

531
00:48:42.880 --> 00:48:50.680
Father, I thank you for the privilege

532
00:48:50.680 --> 00:48:56.120
of coming before you, who has loved us

533
00:48:56.120 --> 00:49:04.840
with such faithfulness, such unwavering,

534
00:49:04.840 --> 00:49:10.560
such unconditional love, Lord, we've

535
00:49:10.560 --> 00:49:17.280
learned such conditional living and performance-based,

536
00:49:17.280 --> 00:49:20.440
fear-based living.

537
00:49:20.440 --> 00:49:27.120
I pray today in this group and all the families that

538
00:49:27.120 --> 00:49:36.160
are represented that this will be broken in Jesus' name,

539
00:49:36.200 --> 00:49:42.080
that we will leave this room transformed

540
00:49:42.080 --> 00:49:51.200
by the renewing of our mind, of knowing

541
00:49:51.200 --> 00:49:56.480
that we are who you say we are, and we

542
00:49:56.480 --> 00:49:59.720
can do what you say we can do.

543
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:13.200
And may we go forth coming from the beauty of knowing that you're with us,

544
00:50:13.200 --> 00:50:18.520
you never leave us, you never forsake us, that we are the temple of the Holy

545
00:50:18.520 --> 00:50:27.040
Spirit, that you live in us, that we have the mind of Christ, that we have power

546
00:50:27.040 --> 00:50:36.640
and authority, that the power of life and death is in our tongue. May we go

547
00:50:36.640 --> 00:50:44.520
forth as light and as salt.

548
00:50:44.960 --> 00:50:50.560
Lord, every single woman that's listening to this or the recording, may she feel

549
00:50:50.560 --> 00:51:00.000
your love in such a real way today. May every lie that has been spoken over her

550
00:51:00.000 --> 00:51:09.640
by others or by herself be broken in Jesus name. May truth rise up and may

551
00:51:09.640 --> 00:51:17.520
these women step boldly into all that you've called them to as we partner with

552
00:51:17.520 --> 00:51:27.240
you, Lord God. Let your spirit float like a mighty river, washing out the old and

553
00:51:27.240 --> 00:51:39.640
bringing life and health and hope to a world that is feeling scared and

554
00:51:39.640 --> 00:51:42.480
confused.

555
00:51:42.480 --> 00:51:51.240
We love you, Lord. I thank you for these women. Bless these women. Bless them in

556
00:51:51.240 --> 00:51:55.240
their coming. Bless them in their going. Bless them in their rising. Bless them

557
00:51:55.240 --> 00:52:02.040
in their sleeping. Bless the work of their hands that it prospers. But most of

558
00:52:02.040 --> 00:52:08.120
all, Lord, bless their hearts with peace and joy and love and the fruits of the

559
00:52:08.120 --> 00:52:18.520
Holy Spirit. Be glorified, Lord, in Jesus name. Amen. I love you, sisters. We're

560
00:52:18.520 --> 00:52:23.880
gonna go deeper tomorrow. Get ready. We're gonna take this even deeper and deeper.

561
00:52:23.880 --> 00:52:31.360
We'll see you tomorrow, 8 a.m. Blessings.
