1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.720
All right, everyone, welcome to Supernatural Saturday.

2
00:00:06.720 --> 00:00:11.320
If you are new here, I'd like to tell you what Supernatural Saturday is all about.

3
00:00:11.320 --> 00:00:13.520
It is the one session a week.

4
00:00:13.520 --> 00:00:17.560
If you've shown up for Ladies Prayer Monday through Thursday, you know that we pray.

5
00:00:17.560 --> 00:00:19.780
We pray for the revival of marriage and family.

6
00:00:19.780 --> 00:00:21.640
We pray for each other.

7
00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:26.560
We pray over the leadership of this beautiful movement that God has given us.

8
00:00:26.560 --> 00:00:29.080
And of course, we pray over our future marriages.

9
00:00:29.080 --> 00:00:32.759
Yes, lineage and legacy for each and every one of us.

10
00:00:32.759 --> 00:00:36.840
But on Saturdays, well, Fridays, we have Faith Friday.

11
00:00:36.840 --> 00:00:39.760
So Faith Friday is led by my husband, usually, David Dorman.

12
00:00:39.760 --> 00:00:43.600
And if you show up to Faith Friday, you show up there to brag on Jesus.

13
00:00:43.600 --> 00:00:45.940
I used to call that brag on Jesus day.

14
00:00:45.940 --> 00:00:50.800
You just show up on Faith Friday, tell a story, give a testimony, anything and everything

15
00:00:50.800 --> 00:00:55.040
that you want to do on Faith Friday, it is a really great time.

16
00:00:55.040 --> 00:00:57.880
And David is usually the person that leads that.

17
00:00:57.880 --> 00:01:00.640
And then Saturday, I'm usually the person that leads Saturday.

18
00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:06.480
And Saturday is about what is the current prophetic reality of heaven?

19
00:01:06.480 --> 00:01:11.640
What is going on in that realm that we can't all see all the time?

20
00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:12.640
Some of us are seers.

21
00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:16.680
Some of us get little glimpses into that other realm, and we'll talk about that today in

22
00:01:16.680 --> 00:01:17.680
a second.

23
00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:25.560
But then Saturday leads into Sunday and Sunday night at 8 p.m. Eastern, we have a session

24
00:01:25.560 --> 00:01:29.160
that is meant to activate Supernatural Saturday.

25
00:01:29.160 --> 00:01:33.320
So if you love Supernatural Saturday and you wish that we had more activations on Saturday

26
00:01:33.320 --> 00:01:36.400
mornings, you can show up on Sunday night.

27
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:39.800
It is usually led by one of our prayer leaders, Candy.

28
00:01:39.800 --> 00:01:46.240
And if you show up there, then you can activate and kind of step into and walk out the things

29
00:01:46.240 --> 00:01:49.280
that God is releasing over us on Saturdays.

30
00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:52.720
So I want to give that quick synopsis because we have a lot of new people and I want everyone

31
00:01:52.720 --> 00:01:57.600
to really enjoy all the spiritual components that we have the last year single.

32
00:01:57.600 --> 00:01:59.920
Yeah, we have a lot of inner healing components.

33
00:01:59.920 --> 00:02:01.960
We have a lot of dating coaching components.

34
00:02:01.960 --> 00:02:05.000
We have a lot of just funny, fun components.

35
00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:10.160
We have a lot of community components, but we also have some spiritual components because

36
00:02:10.160 --> 00:02:18.400
I believe that your relationships hinge on you being reconnected, not just to yourself

37
00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:21.620
and to each other, but also to God.

38
00:02:21.620 --> 00:02:24.540
That is the hinge of the door.

39
00:02:24.540 --> 00:02:29.660
Your relationship with God is going to be the hinge of all of your other relationships.

40
00:02:29.660 --> 00:02:33.020
And so it's important that we strengthen that here.

41
00:02:33.020 --> 00:02:35.100
And so that's what we do.

42
00:02:35.100 --> 00:02:36.780
That's what we do here.

43
00:02:36.780 --> 00:02:39.700
And we love what we do here.

44
00:02:39.700 --> 00:02:43.980
Whole in Christ, complete in marriage, healed in family.

45
00:02:43.980 --> 00:02:48.940
That is our motto here, whole in Christ, completed in marriage.

46
00:02:48.940 --> 00:02:56.860
That means our purposes and God's plans for us in our assignments and then healed in family.

47
00:02:56.860 --> 00:03:03.620
Not just your family that you build with your spouse, but also this global family of God.

48
00:03:03.620 --> 00:03:05.100
So good stuff, right?

49
00:03:05.100 --> 00:03:06.100
All right.

50
00:03:06.100 --> 00:03:11.380
So let's go ahead and push into what is our current prophetic reality for today?

51
00:03:11.380 --> 00:03:15.500
And usually it's some rambling of mine about something that God is showing me or telling

52
00:03:15.500 --> 00:03:16.780
me.

53
00:03:16.780 --> 00:03:23.700
And today it is going to be about some spiritual warfare, but not really just spiritual warfare.

54
00:03:23.700 --> 00:03:30.060
Spiritual covering is probably a better title for today because I think oftentimes, especially

55
00:03:30.060 --> 00:03:34.580
when we're single, we can feel like we're all alone in the world.

56
00:03:34.580 --> 00:03:38.260
And I would love for you to put in the chat right now, if that's you, you're like, yeah,

57
00:03:38.260 --> 00:03:40.700
Jackie, I feel pretty alone.

58
00:03:40.700 --> 00:03:46.820
I feel like I have to depend on myself a lot or it's just me and God.

59
00:03:46.820 --> 00:03:50.700
And you know, sometimes that doesn't really feel very close.

60
00:03:50.700 --> 00:03:56.420
I feel very confused a lot about what decisions to make and what to do when I go through any

61
00:03:56.420 --> 00:04:02.300
kind of trial or trouble, when anything and everything is coming against me, I possibly

62
00:04:02.300 --> 00:04:05.940
feel like I'm alone in that.

63
00:04:05.940 --> 00:04:15.860
Let's go ahead and see in the chat who's been rowing that boat.

64
00:04:15.860 --> 00:04:19.380
You don't have to feel like that all the time, friends, it doesn't have to be your every

65
00:04:19.380 --> 00:04:24.460
moment reality, but go ahead and put in the chat if you felt like that recently, or you

66
00:04:24.460 --> 00:04:28.180
felt like that in the past.

67
00:04:28.180 --> 00:04:35.620
Let's see, especially those of you that are trying to raise kids.

68
00:04:35.620 --> 00:04:40.260
Those of you that are older, and you're starting to maybe think, hey, I wonder if I'm just

69
00:04:40.260 --> 00:04:42.860
going to be alone for the rest of my life.

70
00:04:42.860 --> 00:04:44.780
Let's go ahead and put that in the chat.

71
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:06.160
Right.

72
00:05:06.160 --> 00:05:09.940
Hopefully you guys are all seeing each other's comments.

73
00:05:09.940 --> 00:05:10.940
Take a look in the comments.

74
00:05:10.940 --> 00:05:15.800
It's important that we take a look at that because it's funny because we're saying, well,

75
00:05:15.800 --> 00:05:16.800
I feel alone.

76
00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:19.240
But then we see all these other people saying, I feel alone too.

77
00:05:19.240 --> 00:05:23.800
And it's like, oh, well, I guess I'm not alone in my feeling alone.

78
00:05:23.800 --> 00:05:29.000
And then that also begs the question of, hey, why can't we get together?

79
00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:34.240
I mean, if there's all of these people who feel solitary, and the Bible promises us in

80
00:05:34.240 --> 00:05:40.760
the book of Psalms that he places the solitary in family, then why can't we all kind of get

81
00:05:40.760 --> 00:05:41.760
together?

82
00:05:41.760 --> 00:05:46.320
And friends, that's what we're going to be doing this summer.

83
00:05:46.320 --> 00:05:50.280
Before this summer is over, we're going to have our community-based matchmaking app out.

84
00:05:50.280 --> 00:05:53.960
It's a place where you will be able to find community, where you will be able to find

85
00:05:53.960 --> 00:05:57.440
friends, and hopefully where you'll be able to find your spirit mates.

86
00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:01.800
That's the plan, Stan.

87
00:06:01.800 --> 00:06:02.800
Okay.

88
00:06:02.800 --> 00:06:04.000
All right.

89
00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:08.600
So thank you guys for participating in that little poll right there.

90
00:06:08.600 --> 00:06:15.600
And I just want to let you guys know that recently, very recently, I became not aware

91
00:06:15.600 --> 00:06:17.320
because I've been aware.

92
00:06:17.320 --> 00:06:18.320
I've become conscious.

93
00:06:18.320 --> 00:06:23.560
You guys, you know, we can be aware of something and not really be conscious of it.

94
00:06:23.640 --> 00:06:29.640
Like, raise your hand right now if you're aware that Jesus died for you.

95
00:06:29.640 --> 00:06:36.160
If you're aware that Jesus is the Savior of your life, that he reconnected you to your

96
00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:44.160
Father in heaven, come on, raise your hand if you're aware of that.

97
00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:46.160
You know that.

98
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:51.800
Okay, go ahead and put down your hand now.

99
00:06:51.800 --> 00:06:55.920
Lots of you, most of you, I would think all of you should have your hand up, but that's

100
00:06:55.920 --> 00:06:57.480
okay.

101
00:06:57.480 --> 00:06:59.200
Some people won't raise their hand for nothing.

102
00:06:59.200 --> 00:07:03.240
I'd be like, who wants me to give them this million dollars I have in my hand?

103
00:07:03.240 --> 00:07:05.400
And they wouldn't raise a hand, and that's all right.

104
00:07:05.400 --> 00:07:06.400
Okay.

105
00:07:06.400 --> 00:07:07.400
All right.

106
00:07:07.400 --> 00:07:09.400
Go ahead and put your hands down.

107
00:07:09.400 --> 00:07:15.880
Most of you aware of that truth.

108
00:07:15.880 --> 00:07:17.680
Hands down, hands down, hands down.

109
00:07:17.680 --> 00:07:18.680
Okay.

110
00:07:18.680 --> 00:07:22.120
Now I'm going to ask a different question.

111
00:07:22.120 --> 00:07:27.920
How many of you are actively conscious of that?

112
00:07:27.920 --> 00:07:36.680
And that would mean that it directs your thought life, it directs how you feel.

113
00:07:36.680 --> 00:07:37.680
Not very many.

114
00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:40.880
Some of you are raising your hand and it probably just isn't true.

115
00:07:40.880 --> 00:07:43.880
No offense to you.

116
00:07:44.880 --> 00:07:53.800
You guys, part of the spiritual warfare that we live in is to make us unconscious.

117
00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:57.760
I don't mean unconscious like you're laying on the floor and you're out cold.

118
00:07:57.760 --> 00:08:01.640
I'm talking about just being unconscious spiritually.

119
00:08:01.640 --> 00:08:04.440
Yeah, there's a lot of things that we've been taught.

120
00:08:04.440 --> 00:08:05.440
Jesus loves me.

121
00:08:05.440 --> 00:08:08.360
This I know because the Bible tells me so.

122
00:08:08.360 --> 00:08:11.600
That's great.

123
00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:18.560
But our daily lives, our daily thought life, our daily actions, our daily reactions to

124
00:08:18.560 --> 00:08:22.360
things, they don't really tell that same story.

125
00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:27.280
Because we know that in our knower somewhere, but we're not conscious of it in our everyday

126
00:08:27.280 --> 00:08:28.280
life.

127
00:08:28.280 --> 00:08:37.280
And one of the reasons why is because we are so stinking overwhelmed and distracted.

128
00:08:37.280 --> 00:08:40.520
Stay with me for one second.

129
00:08:40.520 --> 00:08:42.320
By what, Jackie?

130
00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:49.400
By what we can see and taste and hear in what?

131
00:08:49.400 --> 00:08:53.160
In this physical world that we live in.

132
00:08:53.160 --> 00:08:55.360
In this physical world that we live in.

133
00:08:55.360 --> 00:08:59.960
You guys, there's three worlds swirling all around us right now.

134
00:08:59.960 --> 00:09:05.060
There's the physical world and that's the world that most of us can just see right now.

135
00:09:05.060 --> 00:09:09.160
You see your table, your kitchen table, you see your couch maybe, maybe you're in your

136
00:09:09.160 --> 00:09:10.840
bedroom right now.

137
00:09:10.840 --> 00:09:13.800
Maybe you have your camera off because you're getting ready and you see yourself in the

138
00:09:13.800 --> 00:09:14.800
mirror.

139
00:09:14.800 --> 00:09:19.560
It's always kind of freaked me out that we'll never, ever, ever see what we really look

140
00:09:19.560 --> 00:09:22.400
like.

141
00:09:22.400 --> 00:09:24.540
You can't really see what you really look like.

142
00:09:24.540 --> 00:09:29.040
You can't see what other people see when they look at you because all you can ever see is

143
00:09:29.040 --> 00:09:30.840
a reflection of yourself.

144
00:09:30.840 --> 00:09:36.600
Whether it's in a mirror or whether it's in something shiny or whether it's in a picture,

145
00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:38.920
you'll never see yourself.

146
00:09:38.920 --> 00:09:43.560
You will never see you.

147
00:09:43.560 --> 00:09:45.960
Other people will see you, but you won't see you.

148
00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:50.440
Okay, so maybe you're looking at what you see as yourself.

149
00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:53.040
By the way, can I just kind of fold this in here?

150
00:09:53.040 --> 00:09:56.520
Can I just, can I talk to you about your car's extended warranty?

151
00:09:56.520 --> 00:09:57.520
Can I just...

152
00:09:57.520 --> 00:09:58.360
Psst, psst, psst, psst, psst, psst, psst.

153
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:02.160
I just want to fold this in here real quick.

154
00:10:02.160 --> 00:10:04.020
That thing that you see in the mirror that you'll never

155
00:10:04.020 --> 00:10:05.720
actually really see fully,

156
00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:07.480
that actually isn't you.

157
00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:10.320
Yeah. I just want to make sure that you understand that.

158
00:10:10.320 --> 00:10:14.400
Whatever beef you have with that thing that you see in the mirror,

159
00:10:14.400 --> 00:10:16.180
this vehicle, this body,

160
00:10:16.180 --> 00:10:18.700
this house that you're living in during

161
00:10:18.700 --> 00:10:22.220
this temporary earth run that you got going on here,

162
00:10:22.220 --> 00:10:26.060
that actually is not you because you are not a body.

163
00:10:26.060 --> 00:10:32.500
You are a spirit that dwells in a body that possesses a soul.

164
00:10:32.500 --> 00:10:35.500
Those are the other two realms that are swirling around us.

165
00:10:35.500 --> 00:10:37.620
We have this physical realm that we can see,

166
00:10:37.620 --> 00:10:39.900
we can touch it, it's tangible to us.

167
00:10:39.900 --> 00:10:44.580
Then there's another realm around us that is a soul realm.

168
00:10:44.580 --> 00:10:47.340
We'll call this the second heavens.

169
00:10:47.340 --> 00:10:50.800
This is the place where all the warfare is happening.

170
00:10:50.800 --> 00:10:53.860
This is the place where Lucifer and the Horde of it.

171
00:10:53.860 --> 00:11:00.860
Did you guys know that angels are so numerous that we cannot count them?

172
00:11:00.860 --> 00:11:03.780
Did you know that? We can count humans.

173
00:11:03.780 --> 00:11:06.580
We know there's about eight plus billion on the earth right now.

174
00:11:06.580 --> 00:11:09.900
Of course, there's been lots more that have lived and have

175
00:11:09.900 --> 00:11:13.420
passed on and transitioned to the next thing.

176
00:11:13.420 --> 00:11:18.460
But right now, alive in shoe leather or bare feet or no feet,

177
00:11:18.460 --> 00:11:22.780
on the earth right now are about eight plus billion people.

178
00:11:22.780 --> 00:11:25.140
But we can't count the angels,

179
00:11:25.140 --> 00:11:30.940
the stuff that's going on in the second heaven and also the third heaven.

180
00:11:30.940 --> 00:11:33.300
So remember, you're a body.

181
00:11:33.300 --> 00:11:38.420
You're not a body, you're a spirit that lives in a body that possesses a soul.

182
00:11:38.420 --> 00:11:43.900
So the third realm that's swirling around you is that heavenly realm.

183
00:11:43.900 --> 00:11:46.200
That's where God is seated in heavenly places.

184
00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:47.940
Jesus at the right hand of the Father.

185
00:11:47.940 --> 00:11:50.620
Guess what? There's a portion of you,

186
00:11:50.620 --> 00:11:57.060
your spirit person that's also seated with Christ in that third place.

187
00:11:57.060 --> 00:11:58.580
That's crazy, right?

188
00:11:58.580 --> 00:12:02.140
That's mind-boggling if you start to think about that.

189
00:12:02.140 --> 00:12:05.380
But we have to push more into that part of

190
00:12:05.380 --> 00:12:09.300
ourselves and less into this physical part of ourselves.

191
00:12:09.300 --> 00:12:12.100
There was a saying when I was coming up in the church.

192
00:12:12.100 --> 00:12:18.420
I met Jesus in my 20s and I was being discipled by a very Bible-believing church.

193
00:12:18.420 --> 00:12:20.100
Thank goodness, a very spirit-filled church.

194
00:12:20.100 --> 00:12:24.980
Thank goodness, but some legalism as well was folded in there.

195
00:12:24.980 --> 00:12:27.700
Hopefully, I've overcome most of that.

196
00:12:27.700 --> 00:12:29.220
It's hard to get all of that out.

197
00:12:29.220 --> 00:12:31.500
You got to continue to work at that,

198
00:12:31.500 --> 00:12:33.360
getting that out of there,

199
00:12:33.360 --> 00:12:35.220
which is really, really important.

200
00:12:35.220 --> 00:12:38.300
But I learned a lot of Bible and I'm really thankful for that.

201
00:12:38.300 --> 00:12:39.900
I learned a lot of Bible.

202
00:12:39.900 --> 00:12:42.620
But they used to say something back then,

203
00:12:42.620 --> 00:12:48.420
all these cute little cliches and little quotes that we think become Bible to us.

204
00:12:48.420 --> 00:12:51.140
We think it becomes scripture to us.

205
00:12:51.140 --> 00:12:53.340
Cleanliness is next to godliness.

206
00:12:53.340 --> 00:12:55.340
Well, that's not in the Bible.

207
00:12:56.860 --> 00:12:59.140
But the thing that they taught,

208
00:12:59.140 --> 00:13:01.260
the cute little saying that they taught was,

209
00:13:01.260 --> 00:13:04.940
being so heavenly-minded that you're no earthly good.

210
00:13:04.940 --> 00:13:06.780
Anyone ever hear that one?

211
00:13:06.780 --> 00:13:11.660
Don't be so heavenly-minded that you're no earthly good.

212
00:13:12.260 --> 00:13:17.740
I know that there's people that can over-spiritualize anything.

213
00:13:18.580 --> 00:13:21.100
I was once in line,

214
00:13:21.100 --> 00:13:24.820
a young broke girl working at a daycare in college.

215
00:13:24.820 --> 00:13:27.500
One of the ladies that works at the daycare with me,

216
00:13:27.500 --> 00:13:29.420
she had just moved from another country.

217
00:13:29.420 --> 00:13:35.140
She had moved from a country where everything was over-spiritualized.

218
00:13:35.140 --> 00:13:37.380
She was a very fascinating woman,

219
00:13:37.380 --> 00:13:39.860
old enough to probably be my great auntie,

220
00:13:39.860 --> 00:13:41.460
maybe even a grandmother.

221
00:13:41.460 --> 00:13:44.220
She had an adult son that was living with her.

222
00:13:44.220 --> 00:13:46.660
They were just as poor as me.

223
00:13:46.660 --> 00:13:49.620
I invited her to come to my church.

224
00:13:49.620 --> 00:13:53.860
The daycare that we worked at was inside of the church that I attended.

225
00:13:53.860 --> 00:13:55.860
I invited her to come.

226
00:13:55.860 --> 00:13:58.780
Hey, you should come to this church sometime.

227
00:13:58.780 --> 00:14:00.420
You work here during the day.

228
00:14:00.420 --> 00:14:03.260
You should come and visit us on Sunday afternoon.

229
00:14:03.260 --> 00:14:04.660
Well, I didn't know this,

230
00:14:04.660 --> 00:14:06.700
you guys, because there's no way that I could know this.

231
00:14:06.700 --> 00:14:08.220
But in her culture,

232
00:14:08.220 --> 00:14:11.740
if you invite someone anywhere,

233
00:14:11.740 --> 00:14:14.500
then you are hosting them.

234
00:14:14.500 --> 00:14:17.100
Well, I was 22 years old.

235
00:14:17.100 --> 00:14:20.380
I didn't know anything about any of that stuff.

236
00:14:20.620 --> 00:14:23.580
I was just like, hey, come to church.

237
00:14:23.580 --> 00:14:27.100
They came and they were dressed in their best clothes,

238
00:14:27.100 --> 00:14:30.860
and they came and they sat with me and my husband at the time.

239
00:14:30.860 --> 00:14:31.900
He was also young,

240
00:14:31.900 --> 00:14:34.340
we were the same age, I think 23 years old.

241
00:14:34.340 --> 00:14:36.140
Once again, we didn't have any money.

242
00:14:36.140 --> 00:14:37.340
I worked at a daycare.

243
00:14:37.340 --> 00:14:38.540
I was going to college.

244
00:14:38.540 --> 00:14:40.300
He was going to college too,

245
00:14:40.300 --> 00:14:41.580
and he worked at some little place.

246
00:14:41.580 --> 00:14:43.900
I mean, we're just making it.

247
00:14:43.900 --> 00:14:46.700
We're just surviving out here.

248
00:14:46.700 --> 00:14:51.380
After church, as custom with most church people,

249
00:14:51.380 --> 00:14:53.820
we would go get a little bite to eat.

250
00:14:53.820 --> 00:14:57.500
Barely able to afford to go get a little bite to eat.

251
00:14:57.500 --> 00:14:59.940
We went to this place called the Golden

252
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:03.680
Corral. I don't know if any of you know about this place but it's a buffet.

253
00:15:04.480 --> 00:15:11.280
It's a buffet and you can eat as much as you want of this food that's there. And I,

254
00:15:11.280 --> 00:15:15.280
after church was over, I said, thank you so much for coming to church. I hope you enjoyed it.

255
00:15:15.920 --> 00:15:21.280
We're going to go to eat now. And, you know, she just kind of looked at me expectantly. So I was

256
00:15:21.280 --> 00:15:24.960
like, you know, you guys are more than welcome to go to meet us there. It's this place called

257
00:15:24.960 --> 00:15:28.880
the Golden Corral. She goes, oh yeah, I know that place. And I said, okay, we'll meet you there.

258
00:15:30.160 --> 00:15:34.800
Once again, in her culture, when you invite someone to go somewhere, you're hosting them.

259
00:15:36.800 --> 00:15:42.560
Okay. So we're in line at the Golden Corral and you guys, it's like a cafeteria line. You're in

260
00:15:42.560 --> 00:15:46.800
a line, you have a tray and then, you know, you pay for how many people are going to go

261
00:15:46.800 --> 00:15:50.560
into the restaurant, eat the buffet. The line is at the front of the restaurant.

262
00:15:51.280 --> 00:15:55.520
You pick some drinks, you put it on your tray and you go through the cash register and you go.

263
00:15:55.600 --> 00:15:59.360
Well, I noticed that these two folks, her and her son did not have a tray.

264
00:16:00.640 --> 00:16:05.600
My husband and I had a tray. We had our knives and forks, our silverware on the tray. We both

265
00:16:05.600 --> 00:16:11.280
had a glass of water on the tray. We moved through the cash register and paid for two buffets and

266
00:16:11.280 --> 00:16:16.080
they didn't have a tray. They were just behind us. And they just followed us through the line

267
00:16:16.080 --> 00:16:19.920
and they went into the restaurant, didn't have a tray, didn't have any silverware.

268
00:16:19.920 --> 00:16:24.480
And I whispered to my husband at the time, I said, I don't think that they paid.

269
00:16:26.000 --> 00:16:29.760
Now, this is the kind of restaurant where they give you a receipt and you lay it on your table

270
00:16:29.760 --> 00:16:35.360
and a server comes around, someone who's going to clean your plates as you get way too much food

271
00:16:35.360 --> 00:16:39.120
from the buffet. They're going to clear your plates away and they're going to refill your

272
00:16:39.120 --> 00:16:43.040
water or your drink or whatever you have. And they're going to check to see how many

273
00:16:43.040 --> 00:16:50.320
buffets have been purchased so that no one is stealing buffets. And so I'm nervous as I can be

274
00:16:50.320 --> 00:16:55.040
now. Because over the loudspeaker, you know, they're always calling, hey, you know, section

275
00:16:55.040 --> 00:16:58.880
three, you know, check your tickets, you know, meaning like make sure everyone's paid for their

276
00:16:58.880 --> 00:17:02.800
buffets. And I'm like, oh my God, I don't think these people paid for their buffet.

277
00:17:05.119 --> 00:17:11.200
I don't think they did. And so we get to the table and I'm just nervously sitting there waiting for us

278
00:17:11.200 --> 00:17:16.560
to get in trouble because not only did we not pay for them, we didn't have the money to pay for them.

279
00:17:16.560 --> 00:17:20.720
So if it was pushed upon us to pay for them at this point, we wouldn't even be able to.

280
00:17:20.720 --> 00:17:23.200
So I was just like, okay, I don't know what's going to happen.

281
00:17:24.319 --> 00:17:30.640
So the lady comes over the server and she lays out some other plates, you know, and stuff for

282
00:17:30.640 --> 00:17:35.920
us to go to the buffet. And it's all kosher. They end up going to the buffet. They end up eating

283
00:17:35.920 --> 00:17:39.680
their food. I end up just keeping my trap shut because I don't even know what's happened. You

284
00:17:39.680 --> 00:17:45.920
know, maybe they did pay. I don't know. I don't know what's happening. But then during the meal,

285
00:17:45.920 --> 00:17:49.920
we all go get our food. We're sitting down. We're about to eat. The woman begins to pray

286
00:17:50.560 --> 00:17:56.640
over the food and over us. And this is where I find out the truth. She begins to bless us

287
00:17:56.640 --> 00:18:02.400
for hosting them and for bringing them to and giving them a meal and all this stuff.

288
00:18:02.400 --> 00:18:06.640
And I just had to stop right there because you know what? I am not going to get prayed for

289
00:18:06.640 --> 00:18:10.800
and I'm not going to get thanked for something that I did not do. And so I just said, hey, hey,

290
00:18:10.800 --> 00:18:15.440
hey. I said, you know, thank you so much. I said, but I think there's some confusion here because

291
00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:27.280
we didn't pay for you. And this is what she said. Okay. She said, praise the Lord. He has made us

292
00:18:27.280 --> 00:18:36.480
invisible. All right, y'all. Praise the Lord. He has made us invisible. You can over spiritualize

293
00:18:36.480 --> 00:18:42.320
anything you want, but we sold some buffet that day. We got away with it. I don't really know how,

294
00:18:42.400 --> 00:18:52.400
but it happened. We sold some fried chicken. There was some corn. There was some green beans

295
00:18:52.400 --> 00:18:59.280
on the buffet. There was some salad. There was some dessert. Yep. We five-fingered discounted

296
00:18:59.280 --> 00:19:04.080
all of that food, but praise the Lord. He made us invisible. All right. So

297
00:19:08.000 --> 00:19:11.440
we're always having a good time on Supernatural Saturday. But you guys,

298
00:19:11.440 --> 00:19:15.360
you know, we can over spiritualize things. Of course we can. We can over spiritualize things,

299
00:19:15.360 --> 00:19:21.760
but I'm not going to talk to those that over spiritualize. Because here's the thing. I feel

300
00:19:21.760 --> 00:19:26.400
like if you're an over spiritualizer, God can balance you out a whole lot more than the rest of

301
00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:31.840
us that have become unconscious in the age that we're living in. And we're actually under

302
00:19:31.840 --> 00:19:39.680
spiritualizing everything. We're under spiritualizing everything. We have forgotten that we are in a war,

303
00:19:40.400 --> 00:19:49.760
friends. And just recently, God reminded me of something, not just the warfare, not just,

304
00:19:49.760 --> 00:19:55.520
you know, the trouble in the earth and all the things. He reminded me of something else.

305
00:19:55.520 --> 00:19:59.840
He reminded me of angelic presence in my life.

306
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:07.000
He reminded me of things that are going on in the second place.

307
00:20:07.000 --> 00:20:12.160
You guys, heaven's not up in the sky someplace, okay?

308
00:20:12.160 --> 00:20:16.480
These other realms that we're talking about, these other two realms, the physical realm

309
00:20:16.480 --> 00:20:18.480
is the one that you're the most familiar with.

310
00:20:18.480 --> 00:20:22.380
You might visit that other realm in your dreams sometimes.

311
00:20:22.380 --> 00:20:28.080
Anyone have dreams where you know that you've been places and you've done things?

312
00:20:28.080 --> 00:20:29.800
Anyone have dreams?

313
00:20:29.800 --> 00:20:32.580
Some of you may have visions when you're praying.

314
00:20:32.580 --> 00:20:36.760
You have your eyes closed and you go somewhere else in your visions.

315
00:20:36.760 --> 00:20:37.760
You're having a vision.

316
00:20:37.760 --> 00:20:40.040
You're having a movie playing in your mind's eye.

317
00:20:40.040 --> 00:20:41.760
You're seeing things.

318
00:20:41.760 --> 00:20:43.120
Some of you are straight up seers.

319
00:20:43.120 --> 00:20:44.160
You've had open visions.

320
00:20:44.160 --> 00:20:50.920
I've had two open visions in my 30 years of following Jesus, just two.

321
00:20:50.920 --> 00:20:55.720
And that means that you are here in the physical realm and you are awake, but you are seeing

322
00:20:55.760 --> 00:21:02.480
something that is not in the physical realm.

323
00:21:02.480 --> 00:21:06.580
They were short, they were brief, but they were real.

324
00:21:06.580 --> 00:21:10.440
And some people see that kind of stuff all the time.

325
00:21:10.440 --> 00:21:12.160
That's their primary gift.

326
00:21:12.160 --> 00:21:18.140
My primary gift is not to be a seer, but a lot of people have that primary gift.

327
00:21:18.140 --> 00:21:25.080
My primary gift is the five, six, seven different ways that God communicates with his people.

328
00:21:25.080 --> 00:21:30.240
Being a hearer, being a revelator, which brings me to the next thing that I'd like

329
00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:31.740
to say.

330
00:21:31.740 --> 00:21:36.920
That revelation, even what you enjoy on Supernatural Saturday while I'm walking around my kitchen.

331
00:21:36.920 --> 00:21:41.680
Part of the reason why I leave my camera off on Supernatural Saturday is because my process

332
00:21:41.680 --> 00:21:46.640
in downloading what heaven wants to say to you on Supernatural Saturday is me moving

333
00:21:46.640 --> 00:21:49.560
continuously.

334
00:21:49.560 --> 00:21:52.280
Because this is not pre-recorded.

335
00:21:52.280 --> 00:21:54.240
This is not pre-rehearsed.

336
00:21:54.400 --> 00:21:58.120
This is hot out of the oven situation right now.

337
00:21:58.120 --> 00:21:59.480
This is prophetic teaching.

338
00:21:59.480 --> 00:22:00.800
This is revelating.

339
00:22:00.800 --> 00:22:08.960
And years ago, God showed me that I have an angel that does this with me.

340
00:22:08.960 --> 00:22:12.400
That gives me revelation, that revelates with me.

341
00:22:12.400 --> 00:22:16.200
And if that's kind of too weird for you, then, you know, maybe Supernatural Saturday isn't

342
00:22:16.200 --> 00:22:20.880
going to be your favorite day of the week.

343
00:22:20.880 --> 00:22:29.360
The reason why I'm bringing this to your attention is because you are not alone.

344
00:22:29.360 --> 00:22:31.080
I need to get you to this place today.

345
00:22:31.080 --> 00:22:33.520
This is where God wants to get you to this place.

346
00:22:33.520 --> 00:22:35.800
You are not alone.

347
00:22:35.800 --> 00:22:41.160
You guys, I'm aware of these other realms of existence.

348
00:22:41.160 --> 00:22:46.880
I'm aware that they're happening all around us simultaneously.

349
00:22:46.880 --> 00:22:48.000
God is on his throne.

350
00:22:48.000 --> 00:22:51.880
There's things happening in the soul realm, in the second heavens.

351
00:22:51.880 --> 00:22:53.160
There's battles being waged.

352
00:22:53.160 --> 00:22:54.560
Go read the book of Daniel.

353
00:22:54.560 --> 00:22:56.480
You'll see that in real time.

354
00:22:56.480 --> 00:22:58.880
What's going on in the second heavens?

355
00:22:58.880 --> 00:23:00.440
There's all kinds of warfare.

356
00:23:00.440 --> 00:23:04.080
Remember, there's a lot more angels than there are humans.

357
00:23:04.080 --> 00:23:08.920
There's a lot more spiritual entities than there are human beings.

358
00:23:08.920 --> 00:23:10.640
And they don't die the way that we do.

359
00:23:10.640 --> 00:23:12.800
They don't transition the way that we do.

360
00:23:12.800 --> 00:23:13.800
Okay?

361
00:23:13.800 --> 00:23:25.600
But in the earth realm, in this physical realm, in the second heaven, there's lots going on.

362
00:23:25.600 --> 00:23:29.320
Lots and lots going on.

363
00:23:29.320 --> 00:23:31.480
And God wants us to be aware of what's going on.

364
00:23:31.480 --> 00:23:35.800
And the only way we're going to become aware of what's going on is if we stop living life

365
00:23:35.800 --> 00:23:43.080
according to just what our flesh can sense, see, smell, hear.

366
00:23:43.080 --> 00:23:50.560
Being dumbed down to this physical state of being, living life as a body instead of as

367
00:23:50.560 --> 00:23:53.640
a spirit that possesses a soul.

368
00:23:53.640 --> 00:23:56.880
Are you following me?

369
00:23:56.880 --> 00:24:02.360
But you guys, the biggest warfare that we're seeing in the year 2026 is massive amounts

370
00:24:02.360 --> 00:24:03.360
of distraction.

371
00:24:03.920 --> 00:24:11.360
Did you guys know that before electricity was invented, you went to bed with the sun?

372
00:24:11.360 --> 00:24:12.880
Now I'm not against electricity.

373
00:24:12.880 --> 00:24:14.040
I like air conditioning.

374
00:24:14.040 --> 00:24:15.880
I'm not against electricity.

375
00:24:15.880 --> 00:24:21.280
But I will tell you that before electricity was invented, you worked and then you read

376
00:24:21.280 --> 00:24:23.360
books, usually the Bible.

377
00:24:23.360 --> 00:24:26.520
There weren't a whole lot of books back then, y'all.

378
00:24:26.520 --> 00:24:27.520
You read books.

379
00:24:27.520 --> 00:24:30.080
And if it wasn't a book about the Bible, it's usually a book.

380
00:24:30.080 --> 00:24:33.520
If it wasn't the Bible, it's usually a book about the Bible.

381
00:24:33.520 --> 00:24:34.520
Back in the olden days.

382
00:24:34.520 --> 00:24:36.440
Yeah, it was pretty boring back then, y'all.

383
00:24:36.440 --> 00:24:37.440
Because you know what?

384
00:24:37.440 --> 00:24:40.080
The only entertainment that you had was your family.

385
00:24:40.080 --> 00:24:44.800
The only entertainment that you had was when neighbors got together and had, you know,

386
00:24:44.800 --> 00:24:49.280
picnics or, you know, dances or whatever was going on.

387
00:24:49.280 --> 00:24:50.720
And you do that by candlelight.

388
00:24:50.720 --> 00:24:52.480
You blow out the candles and you're done.

389
00:24:52.480 --> 00:24:53.480
You go to bed.

390
00:24:53.480 --> 00:24:55.160
The candle burns down.

391
00:24:55.160 --> 00:24:58.960
It's time for sleep time.

392
00:24:58.960 --> 00:24:59.960
Sleep time.

393
00:24:59.960 --> 00:24:59.960


394
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:03.520
You get a full rest, you get up and you do it the next day.

395
00:25:03.520 --> 00:25:05.320
Now you guys, because of electricity,

396
00:25:05.320 --> 00:25:08.360
because of technology, because of modern conveniences,

397
00:25:08.360 --> 00:25:10.600
like cars and trains and planes,

398
00:25:10.600 --> 00:25:13.640
all we're doing is going, going, going, going,

399
00:25:13.640 --> 00:25:15.640
going, going, going, going.

400
00:25:15.640 --> 00:25:17.960
And we're not going consciously.

401
00:25:20.560 --> 00:25:22.280
Yeah, we're aware that we're going

402
00:25:22.280 --> 00:25:23.960
and we're aware of our schedule

403
00:25:23.960 --> 00:25:26.440
and we're aware of the things that we need to do today

404
00:25:26.440 --> 00:25:28.400
in order to survive.

405
00:25:28.400 --> 00:25:29.840
But that's exactly what's happening.

406
00:25:29.840 --> 00:25:31.240
We're in survival mode.

407
00:25:31.240 --> 00:25:32.200
And every once in a while,

408
00:25:32.200 --> 00:25:34.440
your goings might take you to someplace fun,

409
00:25:34.440 --> 00:25:36.600
like on a vacation or to visit family.

410
00:25:36.600 --> 00:25:41.520
But for the most part, friends, we are barely conscious.

411
00:25:41.520 --> 00:25:43.000
And when I say barely conscious,

412
00:25:43.000 --> 00:25:47.800
I'm meaning that we're not focused on

413
00:25:47.800 --> 00:25:51.520
the things that really matter in our day-to-day lives.

414
00:25:52.920 --> 00:25:56.720
We're not focused on those other realms of existence

415
00:25:56.720 --> 00:25:59.080
that are all around us in our everyday lives.

416
00:25:59.120 --> 00:26:02.400
In fact, when we approach someone

417
00:26:02.400 --> 00:26:06.040
or we approach a situation, when we approach our job,

418
00:26:06.040 --> 00:26:09.040
it doesn't have to be a bad situation, you guys.

419
00:26:09.040 --> 00:26:10.360
In fact, bad situations,

420
00:26:10.360 --> 00:26:12.840
we really will become conscious of those other realms

421
00:26:12.840 --> 00:26:14.520
because we need God's help, right?

422
00:26:14.520 --> 00:26:16.280
So if you're in trouble, if you're in need,

423
00:26:16.280 --> 00:26:17.520
if you're in a crisis,

424
00:26:17.520 --> 00:26:19.520
that's when you're really going to look at,

425
00:26:19.520 --> 00:26:22.480
okay, God, are you with me?

426
00:26:22.480 --> 00:26:23.440
Do you see me?

427
00:26:23.440 --> 00:26:24.560
Are you El Roy?

428
00:26:24.560 --> 00:26:26.040
Are you the God that sees me?

429
00:26:26.040 --> 00:26:27.960
You're gonna kind of push into that other realm

430
00:26:27.960 --> 00:26:29.160
and become conscious.

431
00:26:29.160 --> 00:26:30.520
But in our everyday life,

432
00:26:30.520 --> 00:26:33.280
when there's no huge crisis looming over us,

433
00:26:33.280 --> 00:26:37.080
that is when we need to be aware more than ever.

434
00:26:37.080 --> 00:26:40.280
Your job is not really your job.

435
00:26:40.280 --> 00:26:42.880
Your job is a place that you've been assigned to go

436
00:26:42.880 --> 00:26:43.720
and guess what?

437
00:26:43.720 --> 00:26:46.160
There's stuff going on there in the second heavens.

438
00:26:47.520 --> 00:26:49.400
There's stuff going on with those people.

439
00:26:49.400 --> 00:26:50.960
If you were a seer

440
00:26:50.960 --> 00:26:53.360
that could see into the spirit realm all the time,

441
00:26:53.360 --> 00:26:56.560
you would see that that person that doesn't like you at work,

442
00:26:56.560 --> 00:27:00.040
they're being influenced by darkness.

443
00:27:03.920 --> 00:27:06.120
That situation that's happening over here

444
00:27:06.120 --> 00:27:07.880
with this and that,

445
00:27:07.880 --> 00:27:12.560
it's being influenced by some sort of spiritual thing.

446
00:27:13.520 --> 00:27:15.760
Nothing is happening in the physical world

447
00:27:15.760 --> 00:27:17.760
that we can see readily

448
00:27:17.760 --> 00:27:20.680
that isn't being influenced by the world

449
00:27:20.680 --> 00:27:22.240
that we can't see readily.

450
00:27:23.240 --> 00:27:25.600
And you guys, this is not meant to scare you

451
00:27:25.600 --> 00:27:29.200
and it's not meant to make you over spiritualizing things,

452
00:27:29.200 --> 00:27:31.320
but it is meant to remind you

453
00:27:31.320 --> 00:27:34.800
that you are not a body that lives in a physical world.

454
00:27:34.800 --> 00:27:36.400
That you are a pilgrim,

455
00:27:36.400 --> 00:27:41.400
a spirit that is being housed in an earthly vessel

456
00:27:42.960 --> 00:27:47.800
so that you can live in this very temporary reality

457
00:27:47.800 --> 00:27:49.560
that you're experiencing on earth.

458
00:27:53.080 --> 00:27:54.840
And it's gonna go by really fast,

459
00:27:58.160 --> 00:27:59.160
really fast.

460
00:27:59.160 --> 00:28:01.480
So it's important that we begin to see

461
00:28:01.480 --> 00:28:03.080
not just why we're here,

462
00:28:05.400 --> 00:28:07.080
that's a bigger conversation.

463
00:28:08.440 --> 00:28:10.920
And it starts and ends with you're here to show people

464
00:28:10.920 --> 00:28:12.400
what it looks like to be a child of God,

465
00:28:12.400 --> 00:28:14.440
but everyone's gonna do that differently

466
00:28:14.440 --> 00:28:15.680
through your gifts and your talents

467
00:28:15.680 --> 00:28:17.040
and your callings and your assignments

468
00:28:17.040 --> 00:28:18.120
and that's beautiful.

469
00:28:20.080 --> 00:28:22.000
But God wants us to stop getting so caught up

470
00:28:22.760 --> 00:28:23.600
in the minutia of everyday life.

471
00:28:23.600 --> 00:28:24.880
You're paying bills, you're going to work,

472
00:28:24.880 --> 00:28:26.600
you're wondering if you're ever gonna get married.

473
00:28:26.600 --> 00:28:29.120
Okay, fine, you're trying to lose weight.

474
00:28:29.120 --> 00:28:30.640
You know, what else did you do this week?

475
00:28:30.640 --> 00:28:32.840
You answered emails, you scrolled through social media,

476
00:28:32.840 --> 00:28:34.240
probably far more than you should have.

477
00:28:34.240 --> 00:28:35.480
Same, me too.

478
00:28:35.480 --> 00:28:36.400
You watched the news.

479
00:28:36.400 --> 00:28:38.760
I told you not to do that, but you did it anyway.

480
00:28:38.760 --> 00:28:43.120
You worried about your future more times than one.

481
00:28:43.120 --> 00:28:44.800
And somewhere along the way,

482
00:28:47.840 --> 00:28:50.000
you forgot that there's this whole other reality,

483
00:28:50.040 --> 00:28:52.040
this whole other kingdom that we cannot see

484
00:28:52.040 --> 00:28:54.320
that's more important than the one we can see.

485
00:28:54.320 --> 00:28:56.040
That's what's more important.

486
00:28:56.040 --> 00:28:57.720
That's what I wanna get through to all of us today,

487
00:28:57.720 --> 00:28:58.560
including myself.

488
00:28:58.560 --> 00:29:00.200
This one that you can't readily see

489
00:29:00.200 --> 00:29:02.320
and maybe you only get glimpses of every once in a while

490
00:29:02.320 --> 00:29:04.760
if you're a seer, it is actually more important

491
00:29:04.760 --> 00:29:06.280
than the one that you can see.

492
00:29:09.720 --> 00:29:10.720
It's more important.

493
00:29:20.960 --> 00:29:22.080
It's happening all around us.

494
00:29:22.080 --> 00:29:24.800
You guys, the Bible never presents the spiritual realm

495
00:29:24.800 --> 00:29:26.680
as something far away.

496
00:29:26.680 --> 00:29:28.520
It's something all around us.

497
00:29:28.520 --> 00:29:30.840
Heaven is not absent.

498
00:29:30.840 --> 00:29:31.920
That's not the problem.

499
00:29:31.920 --> 00:29:33.920
The problem is that we're unaware of it.

500
00:29:35.280 --> 00:29:36.640
Close your eyes real quick.

501
00:29:39.920 --> 00:29:42.680
Come on, close your eyes real quick

502
00:29:44.000 --> 00:29:45.720
and just pray this short prayer.

503
00:29:45.720 --> 00:29:50.520
Lord, increase my awareness of your presence.

504
00:29:50.520 --> 00:29:55.000
Increase my awareness of your kingdom.

505
00:29:56.600 --> 00:29:58.600
Increase my awareness.

506
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:03.320
that I am surrounded by your love, your protection, your care.

507
00:30:10.320 --> 00:30:14.280
Increase my awareness of the things that my eyes cannot see.

508
00:30:19.200 --> 00:30:21.600
Guys, I think one of the greatest tragedies and, you know,

509
00:30:21.600 --> 00:30:24.560
God knew that there's going to be like this because the scripture says we walk

510
00:30:24.560 --> 00:30:26.160
by faith and not by sight.

511
00:30:26.160 --> 00:30:27.120
Why did it say that?

512
00:30:27.360 --> 00:30:29.320
Because it's so easy to walk by sight.

513
00:30:29.640 --> 00:30:31.560
God knew that we are the most of us.

514
00:30:31.560 --> 00:30:35.880
We're going to be needing to just believe in something that we can't see.

515
00:30:36.800 --> 00:30:38.680
Most people have never seen an angel before.

516
00:30:38.680 --> 00:30:40.480
Most people have never seen a demon before.

517
00:30:40.480 --> 00:30:41.520
We think that that's good.

518
00:30:41.520 --> 00:30:43.880
We'd like to see the angels, but we don't want to see the rest of it.

519
00:30:43.880 --> 00:30:45.400
And I kind of think it all goes together.

520
00:30:45.960 --> 00:30:46.480
All right.

521
00:30:48.120 --> 00:30:51.280
We've never seen God, obviously no man has seen him.

522
00:30:51.280 --> 00:30:54.760
We've never seen Jesus because we didn't live during Jesus's time when

523
00:30:54.760 --> 00:30:56.480
he was on the earth, you know?

524
00:30:56.520 --> 00:31:00.320
Yeah, we've had little snippets of little things and prayer and a dream here and

525
00:31:00.320 --> 00:31:03.280
there, but for the most part, we're walking by faith, aren't we?

526
00:31:05.320 --> 00:31:08.840
We're walking by faith that all of these things that we're reading about are real.

527
00:31:13.880 --> 00:31:21.200
And the next time that your faith gets a little tired, I want you just to go out

528
00:31:21.200 --> 00:31:22.400
and touch some grass.

529
00:31:22.680 --> 00:31:26.160
And the reason why I'm saying that is, is because you're surrounded by things

530
00:31:26.160 --> 00:31:27.120
that men made.

531
00:31:27.520 --> 00:31:30.000
God made man and then man made a whole lot of stuff.

532
00:31:30.000 --> 00:31:33.480
And remember, we've been created in the image of God, so we're creators.

533
00:31:33.760 --> 00:31:35.600
So right now I'm walking around my kitchen.

534
00:31:35.600 --> 00:31:37.640
There's a table that was built by some machine.

535
00:31:37.640 --> 00:31:39.880
There's a rug that was loomed by some machine.

536
00:31:40.320 --> 00:31:44.280
There's an island and a kitchen and a refrigerator made by machines and by

537
00:31:44.280 --> 00:31:45.920
people and by their designs.

538
00:31:46.120 --> 00:31:48.200
And so it was created by creation.

539
00:31:48.200 --> 00:31:50.840
It was created by God's creation, which is humans.

540
00:31:51.480 --> 00:31:53.360
But when you go outside.

541
00:31:56.120 --> 00:31:58.720
Okay, which a lot of us don't.

542
00:31:59.720 --> 00:32:05.480
But when you go outside and you get in the grass and you look at each blade of

543
00:32:05.480 --> 00:32:08.840
grass like you did when you were a little child and you lay in the grass and you

544
00:32:08.840 --> 00:32:15.320
look at the grass and you look at all of the ecosystems that are living just right

545
00:32:15.320 --> 00:32:20.080
there in that one blade of grass, that one little patch of earth, the ants and the

546
00:32:20.080 --> 00:32:23.320
bugs and the worms and the different things that are all living and they're all

547
00:32:23.320 --> 00:32:26.880
doing their thing because they know their assignment.

548
00:32:27.160 --> 00:32:31.240
And then you look around and there's a wildflowers and there's butterflies and

549
00:32:31.240 --> 00:32:34.080
then there's this and that and it's happening all around.

550
00:32:34.360 --> 00:32:36.240
That is when you are reminded.

551
00:32:37.440 --> 00:32:43.200
Of the supernatural power of God, because if he's not, then how in the world?

552
00:32:43.360 --> 00:32:48.000
I know there's always been this debate between science and faith, science and

553
00:32:48.000 --> 00:32:50.200
creation, but there really isn't a debate, you guys.

554
00:32:51.680 --> 00:32:55.480
There's not a debate because here's the thing, the greatest minds that came up

555
00:32:55.480 --> 00:32:59.880
with some of the greatest breakthroughs back in the day, Darwin, even Pascal, all

556
00:32:59.880 --> 00:33:05.960
of them, Einstein, Newton, if you read the quotes from the end of these men's lives,

557
00:33:06.280 --> 00:33:10.040
each and every one of them says, science can only take one step forward.

558
00:33:10.600 --> 00:33:15.400
Each and every one of them says science can only take you so far until you run

559
00:33:15.400 --> 00:33:17.960
into the belief that there is a God.

560
00:33:19.680 --> 00:33:20.400
All of them.

561
00:33:23.160 --> 00:33:27.440
They said, if you stay, if you stay in the shallow end of the science pool, then,

562
00:33:27.440 --> 00:33:28.800
you know, it's all about science.

563
00:33:28.800 --> 00:33:34.880
But if you go deep, the deeper that you go into science, what we call science, you

564
00:33:34.880 --> 00:33:43.560
actually run into that there is no other way that this could have come to pass

565
00:33:47.320 --> 00:33:50.160
besides divine design.

566
00:33:52.520 --> 00:33:57.200
So friends, if your faith gets a little bit lax and weary, like mine, go out,

567
00:33:57.200 --> 00:34:00.960
touch some grass, got to do it.

568
00:34:01.960 --> 00:34:06.600
So we live by sight, you guys, and we forget the world that we can't see.

569
00:34:09.440 --> 00:34:13.280
And when we forget about the world that we can't see, we react to what people say.

570
00:34:13.520 --> 00:34:15.000
We react to our circumstances.

571
00:34:15.000 --> 00:34:20.360
We react to, you know, disappointments and delays differently than if we remember

572
00:34:20.360 --> 00:34:21.800
the world that we can't see.

573
00:34:22.760 --> 00:34:26.840
You're going to react differently because if you remember the world that you can't

574
00:34:26.880 --> 00:34:30.320
If you remember the world that you can't see, you're going to remember that God is

575
00:34:30.320 --> 00:34:32.239
working, that angels are ministering.

576
00:34:34.520 --> 00:34:38.000
That every tear is being captured in a bottle, that the prayers of the saints are

577
00:34:38.000 --> 00:34:41.120
rising, that Holy Spirit is speaking, that the kingdom is advancing.

578
00:34:44.920 --> 00:34:48.480
Remember the story of Elijah, this is what happened in the story of Elisha, it was

579
00:34:48.480 --> 00:34:50.480
actually Elisha, I believe, not Elijah.

580
00:34:50.880 --> 00:34:56.840
In the story in the book of Kings, second Kings, the servant is with Elisha.

581
00:34:59.040 --> 00:34:59.960
And the servant looks.

582
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:02.000
And the enemy is everywhere

583
00:35:02.600 --> 00:35:04.600
They're surrounded

584
00:35:09.120 --> 00:35:16.680
And you guys those weren't just horses and chariots those weren't just soldiers those soldiers were there to get the Prophet you know that right

585
00:35:17.760 --> 00:35:20.440
The king had commanded that the Prophet be brought to him

586
00:35:23.440 --> 00:35:26.600
And if I'm not mistaken, I think it's because there was no rain

587
00:35:30.000 --> 00:35:32.000
You

588
00:35:34.200 --> 00:35:36.440
But the servant isn't a prophet

589
00:35:36.440 --> 00:35:39.080
He's just a regular person like the rest of us, right?

590
00:35:39.080 --> 00:35:45.320
And Elisha sees his servant is panicking and suffering and I love this about the Prophet because he didn't need to do this

591
00:35:45.320 --> 00:35:49.040
He could just let his servant. I mean, what's the servant his lowly servant who cares, right?

592
00:35:49.760 --> 00:35:54.800
but Elisha prays for a servant and just says Lord open his eyes and let him see what I can see and

593
00:35:57.360 --> 00:35:59.360
Suddenly the servant sees

594
00:36:00.000 --> 00:36:05.240
Not just the physical world where he's surrounded by the enemy, but he sees horses and chariots and a fire

595
00:36:06.960 --> 00:36:10.840
Angels angelic horses and chariots of fire surrounding what?

596
00:36:11.360 --> 00:36:16.000
Surrounding what was surrounding them and you guys this is a story where that song comes from if you really like it

597
00:36:16.000 --> 00:36:18.320
It may look like I'm surrounded

598
00:36:19.200 --> 00:36:21.200
But I'm surrounded by you

599
00:36:23.760 --> 00:36:25.760
This is where that song comes from

600
00:36:30.000 --> 00:36:32.120
And you know what I love most about that stories is that

601
00:36:33.400 --> 00:36:38.720
He didn't pray for the angels to show up. They were already there. And can I tell you right now?

602
00:36:38.720 --> 00:36:40.720
They're already there in your life, too

603
00:36:42.440 --> 00:36:46.520
They've been assigned to you I know that that may weird you out and

604
00:36:47.400 --> 00:36:50.840
Most of us are never going to see the ones that are assigned to us

605
00:36:50.840 --> 00:36:57.040
They're never we're never gonna see the the guardians that walk with us the angels that show up for just different

606
00:36:57.240 --> 00:36:59.520
Things in your life because of prayer

607
00:37:00.200 --> 00:37:04.760
The intercession of the Saints the intercession of Jesus that's happening for you

608
00:37:05.600 --> 00:37:07.600
Continuously at the right hand of the Father

609
00:37:07.920 --> 00:37:09.920
You guys it activates

610
00:37:10.600 --> 00:37:12.600
those other realms and

611
00:37:13.160 --> 00:37:15.160
That breaks into the realm that we

612
00:37:16.040 --> 00:37:18.040
Think we live in

613
00:37:18.400 --> 00:37:20.400
Even though you're living in all three simultaneously

614
00:37:21.280 --> 00:37:25.360
Let's talk about angels a little bit because I know people get freaked out and I just want to just give you a little

615
00:37:25.920 --> 00:37:31.360
Give you a little overview. Okay. First of all, if you read the Bible, you'll see the Bible is filled with angels

616
00:37:32.960 --> 00:37:34.960
Filled with angels and

617
00:37:35.680 --> 00:37:39.200
You see that angels are there when there's big crisis for sure, right?

618
00:37:39.760 --> 00:37:45.040
Like Daniel we just talked about him and the lion's den. It said an angel shut the mouth of the lion. Didn't it say that?

619
00:37:45.200 --> 00:37:48.480
Now no one else look and saw that no one else knew that that was happening

620
00:37:48.480 --> 00:37:50.880
I don't even know if Daniel saw it or knew that it was happening

621
00:37:50.880 --> 00:37:53.680
All the Daniel knows is the end that the lion didn't eat him

622
00:38:02.560 --> 00:38:07.920
The king knew that Daniel had to have God with him because he was the one who was going to take care of him

623
00:38:07.920 --> 00:38:11.280
He was the one who was going to take care of him. He was the one who was going to take care of him

624
00:38:11.920 --> 00:38:17.760
The king knew that Daniel had to have God with him because he didn't get eaten by the lions he didn't see the angels

625
00:38:18.720 --> 00:38:20.720
or the angel

626
00:38:21.120 --> 00:38:23.120
Where else do we see angels?

627
00:38:25.280 --> 00:38:27.280
Jesus in the garden

628
00:38:27.600 --> 00:38:30.320
He was praying. It says that an angel came and strengthened him

629
00:38:31.280 --> 00:38:32.880
remember that

630
00:38:32.880 --> 00:38:37.760
Same thing when the wilderness after the fast after the temptation of this of satan with jesus

631
00:38:38.640 --> 00:38:40.640
Angels announced the birth of christ

632
00:38:42.080 --> 00:38:44.080
To the shepherds

633
00:38:45.600 --> 00:38:49.760
An angel rolls away the stone think of all the angels put them in the put them in the chat right now

634
00:38:50.640 --> 00:38:53.840
Don't make me try to come up with all of them angel rolls away the stone

635
00:38:55.760 --> 00:38:58.400
Uh an angel led peter out of prison remember that

636
00:39:00.720 --> 00:39:02.720
All kinds of angels

637
00:39:06.160 --> 00:39:08.160
All kinds of angels you guys

638
00:39:11.280 --> 00:39:17.200
Guys are putting them up. Come on put them up there. Yeah, the one in the desert. I said that one appeared to mary

639
00:39:17.280 --> 00:39:19.280
Yeah, yeah, yeah

640
00:39:20.560 --> 00:39:26.420
The angels in abraham and lot story that came to warn lot to get out of sodom and gomorrah

641
00:39:30.560 --> 00:39:32.800
The angel that wrestled with day with jacob

642
00:39:34.160 --> 00:39:36.160
you know, there's a lot of

643
00:39:37.120 --> 00:39:44.160
Theory about that but hebrews the book of hebrews you guys tells us that they are ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit

644
00:39:44.300 --> 00:39:46.820
Salvation they are here to serve

645
00:39:48.800 --> 00:39:51.680
The heirs of salvation, who do you think the heirs of salvation are?

646
00:39:53.360 --> 00:39:55.360
They're you

647
00:39:55.680 --> 00:39:57.680
We're heirs and joint heirs with christ

648
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:08.160
One of my favorite Psalms, Psalm 91, says that God commands his angels over the things

649
00:40:08.160 --> 00:40:11.160
that concern us.

650
00:40:11.160 --> 00:40:15.600
Psalm 34 says the angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him.

651
00:40:15.600 --> 00:40:25.160
Think about that, encamps around, encamps.

652
00:40:25.160 --> 00:40:28.240
And the reason why we're talking about this this morning, you guys, is because God wants

653
00:40:28.240 --> 00:40:33.520
all of us to know that when we feel exposed, when we feel alone, when we feel unprotected,

654
00:40:33.520 --> 00:40:37.320
when we feel uncovered, it just simply isn't true, right?

655
00:40:37.320 --> 00:40:45.880
That's our reality because we're looking at the physical world, but that is not the truth.

656
00:40:45.880 --> 00:40:46.980
That's not the truth.

657
00:40:46.980 --> 00:40:50.980
You're more covered than you think you are.

658
00:40:50.980 --> 00:40:54.640
And as singles, I think it's really important because you can feel incredibly vulnerable

659
00:40:54.640 --> 00:40:57.120
in this season of your life.

660
00:40:57.120 --> 00:40:58.120
Who's going to protect me?

661
00:40:58.200 --> 00:40:59.200
Who's going to help me?

662
00:40:59.200 --> 00:41:00.600
Who's going to carry this heavy load with me?

663
00:41:00.600 --> 00:41:01.600
Who's in my corner?

664
00:41:01.600 --> 00:41:06.880
If you're having a bad day at work, you've got warfare going on at work.

665
00:41:06.880 --> 00:41:07.880
Someone's coming against you.

666
00:41:07.880 --> 00:41:10.200
Someone's fighting you.

667
00:41:10.200 --> 00:41:11.200
Something's happening.

668
00:41:11.200 --> 00:41:17.120
You don't even have anyone to come home with, home to, and talk to it about and be covered

669
00:41:17.120 --> 00:41:18.120
and pray.

670
00:41:18.120 --> 00:41:24.600
And, you know, hopefully you have some friends that you can call because I'm not trying to

671
00:41:24.600 --> 00:41:28.520
paint a picture that it's just you and God and these angels and you don't need any other

672
00:41:28.520 --> 00:41:30.720
humans, okay?

673
00:41:30.720 --> 00:41:38.660
But I want to talk to you about the fact that God's kingdom has never depended on whether

674
00:41:38.660 --> 00:41:44.280
or not you have a spouse.

675
00:41:44.280 --> 00:41:47.960
So even now in the season that you're in, you still belong to God.

676
00:41:47.960 --> 00:41:48.960
You still belong to him.

677
00:41:48.960 --> 00:41:49.960
You're still covered.

678
00:41:49.960 --> 00:41:50.960
You're still surrounded.

679
00:41:50.960 --> 00:41:55.240
Yes, it's great to have a spouse and I do love having a partner and you're going to

680
00:41:55.240 --> 00:41:59.440
love having a partner too.

681
00:41:59.440 --> 00:42:02.720
But I just want you to know that you're not waiting for marriage to become protected.

682
00:42:02.720 --> 00:42:03.720
You're already protected.

683
00:42:03.720 --> 00:42:04.720
You're already known.

684
00:42:04.720 --> 00:42:08.440
You're already deeply, deeply loved.

685
00:42:08.440 --> 00:42:17.800
Go ahead and close your eyes again and ask God that same prayer, Lord, just increase

686
00:42:17.800 --> 00:42:22.320
my awareness of your kingdom.

687
00:42:22.320 --> 00:42:32.240
Increase my awareness of the things that my eyes cannot see.

688
00:42:32.240 --> 00:42:49.960
Come on guys, has there ever been a time when you were going through something and

689
00:42:49.960 --> 00:43:06.440
you thought you were just completely alone?

690
00:43:06.440 --> 00:43:08.040
Because that's what happens, right?

691
00:43:08.040 --> 00:43:12.080
Loneliness begins to whisper, you're by yourself.

692
00:43:12.080 --> 00:43:13.080
I felt like that.

693
00:43:13.080 --> 00:43:14.880
I felt like that many times.

694
00:43:14.880 --> 00:43:15.880
Nobody understands you.

695
00:43:15.880 --> 00:43:17.240
Nobody has your back.

696
00:43:17.240 --> 00:43:32.160
You're carrying the future alone and it's not true.

697
00:43:32.160 --> 00:43:36.720
God wants us to start to walk with confidence after this morning, but not just confidence,

698
00:43:36.720 --> 00:43:40.360
you guys, that you're surrounded and that there are those that go with you.

699
00:43:40.360 --> 00:43:41.980
You do not go alone.

700
00:43:41.980 --> 00:43:45.000
Whatever it is that you're trying to do in life right now, you're trying to lose some

701
00:43:45.000 --> 00:43:46.000
weight.

702
00:43:46.000 --> 00:43:47.000
You're not going to go by yourself.

703
00:43:47.040 --> 00:43:48.040
You're not trying to get healthy.

704
00:43:48.040 --> 00:43:49.040
You're not going by yourself.

705
00:43:49.040 --> 00:43:53.640
In fact, if you will start to become aware of this other realm, instead of just getting

706
00:43:53.640 --> 00:43:57.800
up in the morning like a little orphan and running around based on what you can see in

707
00:43:57.800 --> 00:44:00.320
the natural, come on y'all, that's what we do.

708
00:44:00.320 --> 00:44:04.560
We get up in the morning like little orphans and we run around and we make decisions based

709
00:44:04.560 --> 00:44:10.160
on our human intellect, on our level of wisdom, based on what we can see, based on what makes

710
00:44:10.160 --> 00:44:11.480
sense to us.

711
00:44:11.480 --> 00:44:15.680
I have a friend that always says every single time, I'm just like, hey, you know, what do

712
00:44:15.680 --> 00:44:16.680
you want to do?

713
00:44:17.360 --> 00:44:19.920
And I'm like, well, I'm only going to do this because this makes sense.

714
00:44:19.920 --> 00:44:20.920
Makes sense to who?

715
00:44:20.920 --> 00:44:21.920
Them.

716
00:44:21.920 --> 00:44:26.480
I don't know about you, y'all, but I don't want to do what makes sense to me because

717
00:44:26.480 --> 00:44:30.960
nothing in the Bible makes any sense.

718
00:44:30.960 --> 00:44:34.160
Have you read it?

719
00:44:34.160 --> 00:44:35.600
It does not make any sense.

720
00:44:35.600 --> 00:44:41.240
It's nonsensical because the Bible actually says that the human intellect, the human sense,

721
00:44:41.240 --> 00:44:50.680
our common sense, is the enemy of the supernatural.

722
00:44:50.680 --> 00:44:54.600
Now I'm not asking you to be a fliberty gibbet, and I think a lot of people are afraid of

723
00:44:54.600 --> 00:44:55.600
that.

724
00:44:55.600 --> 00:44:58.120
Well, Jackie, I'm afraid I'm going to get too spiritual and I'm just going to over spiritualize

725
00:44:58.120 --> 00:44:59.120
anything.

726
00:44:59.120 --> 00:45:00.000
That's what boundaries are.

727
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:04.360
are for. That's what the Word is for. You're not going to get too far off in the Spirit

728
00:45:04.360 --> 00:45:09.400
if you're tethered to the Word of God. You got to have both of them. You can't just have

729
00:45:09.400 --> 00:45:14.000
one of them. Got to have both of them. And you can't just have your interpretation of

730
00:45:14.000 --> 00:45:17.160
the Word of God. And this is where a lot of you singles are going to run into some problems

731
00:45:17.160 --> 00:45:23.440
because you're used to doing everything yourself. This is why this community is so important

732
00:45:23.440 --> 00:45:29.080
because you have a place that you can bounce things off of. You can show up in your groups.

733
00:45:29.080 --> 00:45:33.080
You can ask the coaches. You don't even have to ask them just dating questions. You can

734
00:45:33.080 --> 00:45:37.000
ask them life questions. You can ask them heart work questions. You can say, hey, you

735
00:45:37.000 --> 00:45:40.440
know, I don't really know if this is a good idea. Can you guys all pray for me? You can

736
00:45:40.440 --> 00:45:44.480
show up on prayer, ladies, Monday through Thursdays. Guys, you can show up Monday nights

737
00:45:44.480 --> 00:45:49.560
and you can get prayed for. You can ask people to speak into a situation because in a multitude

738
00:45:49.560 --> 00:45:53.840
of counselors there is safety. Let a word be established through the mouth of two or

739
00:45:53.840 --> 00:45:59.320
three witnesses, not just you and your Bible on a random Wednesday afternoon, thinking

740
00:45:59.320 --> 00:46:04.360
that some person that you've only seen one time is your future spouse, even though they

741
00:46:04.360 --> 00:46:14.320
never pay any attention to you. I felt like God told me it in prayer. Well, you thought

742
00:46:14.320 --> 00:46:22.880
wrong. Because one thing's for sure, friends, the person that is meant for you, that's your

743
00:46:22.880 --> 00:46:33.600
future spouse. They are going to know. They are not going to be someone that you look

744
00:46:33.600 --> 00:46:38.480
at from across a crowded room for five years at church. They've never said hi to you. They've

745
00:46:38.480 --> 00:46:44.240
never looked your direction. Or even worse, they know you and they don't even want to

746
00:46:44.240 --> 00:46:52.880
talk to you. That ain't it. And that's how you keep yourself out of some trouble. And

747
00:46:52.880 --> 00:46:57.360
so because people have been disappointed when they step out spiritually, they don't step

748
00:46:57.360 --> 00:47:01.920
out spiritually anymore. Do you guys know that it's probably a knee-jerk reaction to

749
00:47:01.920 --> 00:47:06.160
live a really carnal life? And when I say carnal, I don't mean sin. I just mean fleshly.

750
00:47:06.160 --> 00:47:11.200
I just mean only going by what you can see in this physical realm. We actually dumb ourselves

751
00:47:11.200 --> 00:47:16.720
down to that because we've had disappointment when we try to kind of step out spiritually.

752
00:47:16.720 --> 00:47:21.120
Anybody else? Come on. Let's see it in the chat. You thought God told you something. You stepped

753
00:47:21.120 --> 00:47:25.760
out. Nothing happened. You were in prayer. You thought you saw something. You tried to act on

754
00:47:25.760 --> 00:47:34.000
it. Nothing happened. I don't just mean your love life. I mean anything. And so what happens,

755
00:47:34.000 --> 00:47:38.560
you guys, as a result of that is we begin to be like, OK, it's safer to stay in the boat.

756
00:47:41.440 --> 00:47:47.040
The boat's tangible. I can feel the boat. I can control the boat.

757
00:47:54.560 --> 00:47:58.080
And you guys, every single time you think that you sense something, because it's just like

758
00:47:58.080 --> 00:48:03.200
learning to walk and talk in the physical realm. You didn't learn to walk and talk in one day.

759
00:48:05.200 --> 00:48:09.200
You did not learn to walk and talk in one day. I guarantee you if I went and talked to your

760
00:48:09.200 --> 00:48:14.640
mothers, none of you learned to walk or talk in one day. It was by progression.

761
00:48:16.000 --> 00:48:22.640
It was by practice. It was by getting up and trying again. And so some of you, you have tried

762
00:48:22.640 --> 00:48:28.000
to live a more spiritually directed life. The Bible says they that walk after the Spirit will

763
00:48:28.000 --> 00:48:32.480
not fulfill the lust of the flesh. You know what the lust of the flesh is? Doubt, worry, fear.

764
00:48:34.320 --> 00:48:37.840
I know people are like, oh, if I walk after the Spirit, I must be walking after the Spirit

765
00:48:37.840 --> 00:48:41.840
because I'm not out here fornicating. I must be walking after the Spirit because

766
00:48:41.840 --> 00:48:46.800
I'm not out here stealing and robbing and murdering. No. The lust of the flesh is the

767
00:48:46.800 --> 00:48:51.440
pride of life. The lust of the flesh is just selfishness. It can be greed. It can be,

768
00:48:52.000 --> 00:48:57.760
you know, just isolation and fear. It can be all kinds of different things. Jealousy. It can be

769
00:48:57.760 --> 00:49:04.560
anything. But you've tried walking after the Spirit. You've tried walking after the Spirit.

770
00:49:04.560 --> 00:49:08.640
And like you put in the chat a few minutes ago, it didn't go that well. And then you quit. You

771
00:49:08.640 --> 00:49:15.840
kind of didn't even know it, but you actually chose this unconsciousness again of where I'm

772
00:49:15.840 --> 00:49:24.160
just going to live life according to what I know that I can do. The safety of my own common sense,

773
00:49:24.160 --> 00:49:29.840
yeah, I love God and I read the Word and I go to church and I worship, but I'm going to live

774
00:49:29.840 --> 00:49:36.400
on the safer side of the street. But once again, you did not learn to walk and talk in one day.

775
00:49:37.200 --> 00:49:43.120
And so I want to invite you, I want to invite myself back into the understanding that the

776
00:49:43.120 --> 00:49:46.400
things that we can't see are actually more important than the things we can.

777
00:49:49.920 --> 00:49:56.000
These two other dimensions that we can't see, far more superior and important what's happening

778
00:49:56.000 --> 00:49:58.320
there than what's happening here.

779
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:04.840
And what's happening there is directly dictating what's happening here.

780
00:50:04.840 --> 00:50:09.880
So if we can get more involved there, then we can actually help birth what needs to happen

781
00:50:09.880 --> 00:50:12.120
here.

782
00:50:12.120 --> 00:50:17.880
What you bind on earth will be bound in heaven and what you loose on earth will be loosed

783
00:50:17.880 --> 00:50:18.880
in heaven.

784
00:50:18.880 --> 00:50:20.280
What's that talking about?

785
00:50:20.280 --> 00:50:29.040
That's talking about being conscious of the other heaven where things are really happening

786
00:50:29.040 --> 00:50:32.760
that affect your earthly life.

787
00:50:32.760 --> 00:50:37.720
And partnering in prayer and coming into agreement in prayer for the things that God wants to

788
00:50:37.720 --> 00:50:38.720
do.

789
00:50:38.720 --> 00:50:40.060
What was the Lord's prayer?

790
00:50:40.060 --> 00:50:41.600
Our Father who art where?

791
00:50:41.600 --> 00:50:42.600
On earth?

792
00:50:42.600 --> 00:50:45.040
No, in heaven.

793
00:50:45.040 --> 00:50:48.880
Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.

794
00:50:48.880 --> 00:50:51.600
Thy kingdom come, where?

795
00:50:51.600 --> 00:50:52.600
To earth.

796
00:50:52.600 --> 00:50:54.160
Thy will be done, where?

797
00:50:54.160 --> 00:50:55.160
On earth.

798
00:50:55.160 --> 00:50:56.160
As it is where?

799
00:50:56.160 --> 00:50:57.160
In heaven.

800
00:50:57.160 --> 00:50:58.160
Come on you guys.

801
00:50:58.280 --> 00:51:00.280
Give us today our daily bread.

802
00:51:00.280 --> 00:51:01.280
Is that just food?

803
00:51:01.280 --> 00:51:02.280
No.

804
00:51:02.280 --> 00:51:03.280
That's understanding.

805
00:51:03.280 --> 00:51:04.280
That's knowledge.

806
00:51:04.280 --> 00:51:05.280
That's wisdom.

807
00:51:05.280 --> 00:51:07.880
A man shall not live by bread alone.

808
00:51:07.880 --> 00:51:11.080
Isn't that what Jesus said to Satan when he tried to give him some food when his physical

809
00:51:11.080 --> 00:51:12.920
body was hungry?

810
00:51:12.920 --> 00:51:18.040
What Jesus was saying is that there's another existence that's bigger and more important

811
00:51:18.040 --> 00:51:25.720
than this earthly one.

812
00:51:25.720 --> 00:51:34.160
And you can't dumb me down, Satan.

813
00:51:34.160 --> 00:51:36.960
Give us today our daily bread and forgive us.

814
00:51:36.960 --> 00:51:43.400
And I think it's so important, you guys, that in this prayer, the one Christian tenant that

815
00:51:43.400 --> 00:51:45.640
were like, yeah, you're supposed to forgive people.

816
00:51:45.640 --> 00:51:46.640
Forgiveness is important.

817
00:51:46.640 --> 00:51:50.800
Jesus could have said that this prayer, when they, when, you guys, you have to remember

818
00:51:50.800 --> 00:51:54.360
the Jews, they're the ones that asked him, his disciples.

819
00:51:54.360 --> 00:51:56.840
They had been in little Jewish Hebrew school all their lives.

820
00:51:56.840 --> 00:51:59.400
They knew lots and lots and lots of prayers.

821
00:51:59.400 --> 00:52:02.040
And they said, hey, what prayer is the most important prayer?

822
00:52:02.040 --> 00:52:03.560
This prayer.

823
00:52:03.560 --> 00:52:05.880
And what's included there?

824
00:52:05.880 --> 00:52:07.840
Forgiveness.

825
00:52:07.840 --> 00:52:10.040
Keep a short list, y'all.

826
00:52:10.040 --> 00:52:16.280
Keep a short list.

827
00:52:16.280 --> 00:52:20.600
When you get into unforgiveness, you open the door to tormentation.

828
00:52:20.600 --> 00:52:22.840
You don't want to be tormented.

829
00:52:22.840 --> 00:52:24.080
Keep a short list.

830
00:52:24.080 --> 00:52:29.800
Give us this day our daily, well, give us our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses.

831
00:52:29.800 --> 00:52:37.120
Forgive us for our mistakes, our weaknesses, our frailties, our sin, as we forgive those.

832
00:52:37.120 --> 00:52:39.240
Forgive us to the same degree.

833
00:52:39.240 --> 00:52:42.120
Forgive us in the same way.

834
00:52:42.120 --> 00:52:50.080
Forgive us to the same depth as we forgive those who have trespassed against us.

835
00:52:51.080 --> 00:53:02.320
Jesus, forgive us as we forgive others to the same level.

836
00:53:02.320 --> 00:53:03.320
Forgive us this day.

837
00:53:03.320 --> 00:53:06.320
Give us this today, our daily bread.

838
00:53:06.320 --> 00:53:07.320
Forgive us our trespasses.

839
00:53:07.320 --> 00:53:12.360
We forgive those that trespass against us and deliver us from all evil.

840
00:53:12.360 --> 00:53:15.480
Do you notice that the deliver us from all evil comes after the forgiveness?

841
00:53:15.480 --> 00:53:18.040
It actually comes at the end.

842
00:53:18.040 --> 00:53:19.400
And deliver us from all evil.

843
00:53:19.720 --> 00:53:21.400
You guys, I don't have any of this in my notes.

844
00:53:21.400 --> 00:53:22.400
This is just rhema.

845
00:53:22.400 --> 00:53:24.920
This is just bread from heaven this morning.

846
00:53:24.920 --> 00:53:25.920
Forgive us.

847
00:53:25.920 --> 00:53:30.160
This is that revelatory angel letting us know, hey, hey, hey.

848
00:53:30.160 --> 00:53:34.040
Keep the main thing the main thing.

849
00:53:34.040 --> 00:53:37.080
Keep the main thing the main thing.

850
00:53:37.080 --> 00:53:44.120
For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, now and forever, amen.

851
00:53:44.120 --> 00:53:45.600
Now and forever, amen.

852
00:53:45.600 --> 00:53:49.720
You guys ever notice that the most important things that we need to know as Christians

853
00:53:49.720 --> 00:53:52.920
in order to be victorious on this earth are actually super simple.

854
00:53:52.920 --> 00:53:56.720
You don't have to be smarter than a fifth grader, like the Lord's Prayer.

855
00:53:56.720 --> 00:54:02.680
But you guys, so much of what we've learned back in Sunday school, which is really all

856
00:54:02.680 --> 00:54:11.400
we ever needed to know, but we forgot because it was so simple and we've just become unconscious.

857
00:54:11.400 --> 00:54:12.400
Jesus loves me.

858
00:54:12.400 --> 00:54:13.400
This I know.

859
00:54:13.400 --> 00:54:14.400
Why?

860
00:54:14.400 --> 00:54:16.320
Because the Bible told me so.

861
00:54:16.320 --> 00:54:21.800
That's why.

862
00:54:21.800 --> 00:54:24.600
Little ones to him belong.

863
00:54:24.600 --> 00:54:26.840
Who's got to become a little child to go into the kingdom?

864
00:54:26.840 --> 00:54:29.160
You and me.

865
00:54:29.160 --> 00:54:30.640
Little ones to him belong.

866
00:54:30.640 --> 00:54:35.800
They are weak, but he is strong.

867
00:54:35.800 --> 00:54:39.320
Yes, Jesus loves me.

868
00:54:39.320 --> 00:54:41.000
Yes, Jesus loves me.

869
00:54:41.000 --> 00:54:42.760
Yes, Jesus loves me.

870
00:54:42.760 --> 00:54:45.240
The Bible told me so.

871
00:54:45.240 --> 00:54:47.400
You guys, I don't know whoever wrote that song.

872
00:54:47.400 --> 00:54:53.200
I don't know if they realized that when they did that three times, that actually was important.

873
00:54:53.200 --> 00:55:00.040
Anytime you see God say anything in the word of God three times, it is actually yes, God.

874
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:12.000
name men you see anything repeated three times you got to pay attention when they

875
00:55:12.000 --> 00:55:15.040
wrote that song I don't know if they realize that they were doing that at the

876
00:55:15.040 --> 00:55:18.280
end of the song yes Jesus loves me yes Jesus loves me yes Jesus loves me the

877
00:55:18.280 --> 00:55:38.880
Bible told me so anyone getting anything out of today come on God is for you

878
00:55:38.880 --> 00:55:45.200
heaven is for you life is for you

879
00:55:48.280 --> 00:55:50.340
you

880
00:55:56.920 --> 00:56:00.840
you guys there are people out there that believe this truth along with us there

881
00:56:00.840 --> 00:56:04.840
are people that are single like you there are men there are women and I want

882
00:56:04.840 --> 00:56:09.160
to encourage you to ask God to let them cross your path for the purpose of

883
00:56:09.160 --> 00:56:12.960
community and for the purpose of partnership in marriage I'm asking you

884
00:56:13.420 --> 00:56:18.920
one of those people the things that are happening soon very very soon that have

885
00:56:18.920 --> 00:56:21.920
already been happening now the things that are unfolding in the physical realm

886
00:56:21.920 --> 00:56:26.040
that we see those things are being dictated by these realms that we cannot

887
00:56:26.040 --> 00:56:29.880
see and it's important that we marry people that are people of prayer it's

888
00:56:29.880 --> 00:56:33.320
important that we marry people that are people of understanding it's important

889
00:56:33.320 --> 00:56:38.180
that we marry people that are people that are following after the Spirit do

890
00:56:38.180 --> 00:56:46.500
not make the fatal mistake of marrying a body that lives in the physical world

891
00:56:48.260 --> 00:56:53.780
this is why God arrested my attention

892
00:56:54.780 --> 00:57:00.500
in 2020 before pandemic started and said hey Jackie there's a lot that's coming

893
00:57:00.500 --> 00:57:06.060
down the pipeline and I need my single sons and daughters partnered will you

894
00:57:06.060 --> 00:57:12.540
help me help them get into partnership

895
00:57:17.580 --> 00:57:21.780
there's two very different marriages out there for many many many people there

896
00:57:21.780 --> 00:57:24.940
are marriages that people just get into because they think that's what they're

897
00:57:24.940 --> 00:57:29.620
supposed to do man woman coming together doing whatever all for the purpose of

898
00:57:29.620 --> 00:57:34.380
whatever they can do and unders and enjoy in the physical realm and there's

899
00:57:34.380 --> 00:57:40.460
people that get married for those reasons plus the reasons of being one

900
00:57:40.460 --> 00:57:45.460
can put the flight a thousand into ten thousand better are they that go

901
00:57:45.460 --> 00:57:50.500
together because if one falls in a ditch the other one can pull them out

902
00:57:52.220 --> 00:58:00.340
agreement power in partnership

903
00:58:00.780 --> 00:58:04.660
father God I thank you for your goodness today to us I thank you Lord that you

904
00:58:04.660 --> 00:58:08.660
are for us and if you are for us nothing can be against us we learn that in your

905
00:58:08.660 --> 00:58:13.460
word nothing not principalities not powers not rulers not this present

906
00:58:13.460 --> 00:58:19.900
darkness nothing can be against us if you are for us and so we ask God just

907
00:58:19.900 --> 00:58:23.860
like Paul asked in his prayer that our roots would go down deep into the soil

908
00:58:23.860 --> 00:58:27.900
of your love Lord that we'd be rooted and grounded in your plan so that no

909
00:58:27.900 --> 00:58:33.300
disappointment no distraction no destruction could uproot us that we say

910
00:58:33.300 --> 00:58:39.060
fully fixed on the prize that is set before us all the people that have gone

911
00:58:39.060 --> 00:58:43.100
before us the greats that we consider the greats the forefathers of our faith

912
00:58:43.100 --> 00:58:47.660
the foremothers of our faith we always look to them as being super human beings

913
00:58:47.660 --> 00:58:51.660
but they weren't they were people just like us Papa and that's the truth and

914
00:58:51.660 --> 00:58:54.780
the truth is that they had to press toward the mark to the high calling as

915
00:58:54.780 --> 00:59:01.220
well they had to forget what was past so that they could see what was ahead

916
00:59:01.220 --> 00:59:07.940
talking about not paying attention to this earthly world as much as the one

917
00:59:07.940 --> 00:59:14.460
that is all around us the one that's more important the one that decides the

918
00:59:14.460 --> 00:59:18.820
eternities of the people all around us and so father we ask God that you would

919
00:59:18.820 --> 00:59:23.060
make us spiritually minded so that we could be earthly good that you would

920
00:59:23.060 --> 00:59:28.140
make us more spiritually minded so that we could be more earthly good we're

921
00:59:28.140 --> 00:59:33.860
gonna change that saying Lord right now and we thank you God we thank you Lord

922
00:59:33.860 --> 00:59:38.340
that whatever has plagued us whatever has and I see some of you guys you're

923
00:59:38.340 --> 00:59:42.580
being dragged right now I mean not behind something like you're trying to

924
00:59:42.580 --> 00:59:47.140
take off but there's something that's dragging behind you you know when like a

925
00:59:47.140 --> 00:59:52.220
jet lands you ever seen a jet in the military land and it has that it has

926
00:59:52.220 --> 00:59:58.220
that parachute behind it to help it slow down on the aircraft carrier yeah

927
00:59:58.220 --> 01:00:01.860
some of you are trying to take off

928
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:03.280
and that thing is out, that parachute is out.

929
01:00:05.160 --> 01:00:07.320
And that parachute is things that have plagued you

930
01:00:07.320 --> 01:00:10.080
probably most of your earthly life.

931
01:00:10.960 --> 01:00:14.760
Negativity, disappointments, low self-esteem,

932
01:00:16.000 --> 01:00:18.080
hurt, pain, unforgiveness,

933
01:00:20.180 --> 01:00:24.920
inferiority, an orphan mentality, a poverty mentality,

934
01:00:24.920 --> 01:00:28.040
a scarcity mentality, jealousy.

935
01:00:28.880 --> 01:00:32.200
Guys, all of that is birthed out of the same thing, fear.

936
01:00:32.200 --> 01:00:33.700
And it's the opposite of love.

937
01:00:35.260 --> 01:00:36.840
So you don't need less of those things,

938
01:00:36.840 --> 01:00:38.280
you just need more of love.

939
01:00:41.200 --> 01:00:43.400
They're not equal, they're not equal parts.

940
01:00:45.400 --> 01:00:48.120
Fear does not have the same strength as love.

941
01:00:48.120 --> 01:00:50.700
The Bible says, love conquers all.

942
01:00:55.180 --> 01:00:57.280
So Lord, I just declare now that your people

943
01:00:57.320 --> 01:01:00.340
would know that, yes, Jesus loves me

944
01:01:00.340 --> 01:01:01.880
because the Bible told me so.

945
01:01:03.660 --> 01:01:06.180
Get into that reality, friends.

946
01:01:06.180 --> 01:01:08.100
It's time for us to get into that reality.

947
01:01:08.100 --> 01:01:09.760
It's time for us to move forward.

948
01:01:11.740 --> 01:01:13.700
Father, I pray that you seal everything

949
01:01:14.940 --> 01:01:15.900
by the power of your spirit.

950
01:01:15.900 --> 01:01:18.340
Holy Spirit, seal us up, seal us in.

951
01:01:20.740 --> 01:01:23.380
Let this bear fruit, in Jesus' name, amen.

952
01:01:23.380 --> 01:01:25.060
I love y'all, have a good one.
