5 AM Prayer - Day 10 of 21 Days of Action - Dr Mike Woods SR

Well, praise the Lord and good morning everybody. It is It's day 10, man, day 10. We are halfway through. Can you believe it, guys? We're halfway through, uh, this 21 Days of Action. And again, it's been super exciting. So glad to see everybody here, uh, once again on this morning for 5 AM prayer. I'm super excited always to pray with you and to gather with you anytime we can corporately. Uh, around the things of God. It's just an exciting thing. Do me a favor, family, um, share this. Glory to God. If you're here, I need you to go ahead right now and be a champion for this live stream this morning and share it. Glory to God. I believe the Father is going to meet us here again as he's met us every single morning. Glory to the name of God. There has not been one morning God has not been with us. And I just believe again he's going to meet us, he's going to hear our prayers, uh, and that the power of the living God is going to be made known in the midst of us. Glory to Jesus! So we, we're grateful and we thank him for his goodness, his mercy, his grace, his favor. Glory to God! He's a kind God, isn't he? Glory to God! Uh, just a few things I want to plunder through today. Glory to God. Uh, as the Holy Spirit is leading us this morning, um, we want to— yeah, kind of— we're talking about serving God better in this tier of the fast. Remember guys, this is 21 Days of Action. We're fasting for fire. Glory to God. We want to seek God better so that in our seeking, that fire is ignited, and that constantly the fire of God is flowing through us even beyond this fast. Uh, we want to serve him better, and that's where we're at, uh, in this tier of the fast— serving him better, serving him better. And we want to serve him from a standpoint of fire, from a standpoint of the glory being revealed in our lives, and that actually we're aligned with what he wants and not necessarily what we want to do but we're actually aligned with that that God has ordained and God has planned. So we, we, we were very deliberate, you know, and strategic in this fast. We don't want to just go hungry. We really again want to see our lives better, our lives change. Glory to the name of God. And thirdly, you know, we're talking— we're going to be talking about sharing God. So seeking God Oh my God, serving God, huh, and sharing God. What a beautiful thing. Glory to the name of God. And doing that all in fire. And, um, we're taking the action because this is 21 Days of Action. We're taking the action of prayer, the action of studying the word, the action of applying what we learn so that we can see these things manifest in our lives. Glory to God. Um, Yeah, so a few things I want to, want to deal with. Glory to God. Uh, the first, first thing, so because I want to prophetically just kind of plow through this prayer today, um, and so I want to read the scriptures that connect to what's in my spirit this morning. The first thing I want to tell you, glory to the name of God, that your season— here it is— will not be hindered. I don't know, it is midway point, glory to God, in this fast. The Spirit of the Living God wants to remind somebody that your season will not be hindered. There are some forces, there's some enemies against your progress, and anytime you're anointed, anytime you are anointed to do a work for God there is opposition. You've heard me say this before. If you, if you follow me, you listen to me teach, you've heard me say that, uh, if you indeed are anointed, if you indeed— glory to the name of God— have a distinctive assignment, which I believe all of us do from God, the enemy hates that, number one. Number two, he's looking for portals, he's looking for holes to hinder, to delay that season. He can't stop it. Okay, he can't stop it. So what he wants to do, guys, is delay it. But I'm telling you right now, you know, a season that really comes from God cannot be hindered, it cannot be delayed, uh, it cannot be stopped, except you yield yourself to the tactics that open the door for him to come in and stop it. So I want to read a few texts here. surrounding that. And then we will pray. We're going to pray about that. And then there's another piece of this prayer this morning I want to release over you. So let's go to Daniel 7 and verse number 25. Glory to the name of God. Daniel 7:25. And, um, I am reading from the English Standard Version this morning. Glory to the name of God. Good morning again to Everybody, yeah, I see you guys. Good morning, Kiara. Glory to the name of God. Good morning, Pastor Jeffrey. Good morning, Minister Tanya. Good morning, Prophet Shannon. Good morning, Zion. Good morning, Lady Felicia. Good morning, good morning, good morning everyone. Glory to God. And, and I just need you to grab this, you know, because sometimes the enemy will try to infuse doubt in your head and, and attack you mentally to make you feel like what you're trusting for, what you're believing for— hear me— is going to be hindered. And the reality is, I'm telling you now, your season will not be hindered except you yield to the tactics. Here we go. So let's read Daniel 7:25. Here the prophet, he says He shall speak words against the Most High. So that tells you right there that if the enemy will speak words— because we're talking, he's talking about Satan, Satan's camp, the enemy speaking words against the Most High, using others to speak against the Most High— if the enemy has the, the unmitigated gall, the boldness to speak against the Most High God And he knows he's the Most High God. It's the same God that kicked him out of heaven. He knows he's God, so he speaks against him. That lets you know he'll speak against you, in which the next verse reveals that he'll speak words against the Most High God and shall wear out the saints of the Most High. Watch this. And shall think to change the times and the law. And they shall be given into his hand for a time, times, and half a time. Glory to the name of God. So watch this, here's the operative thing in this entire verse. He speaks against the Most High and then he seeks to wear out the saints of the Most High. Oh my God, today, verse 26. But the court shall sit in judgment and his dominion shall be taken away to be consumed and destroyed to the end. And the kingdom and the dominion and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High. So watch this, though you're under attack, this, this is, this is the key. He speaks against the Most High. He's trying to wear you out with the attack. You cannot allow the devil to wear you out with what he's throwing at you. With the fiery darts of wickedness that he's throwing at your finances, that he's throwing at your marriage, that he's throwing at your children, that he's throwing at your life. You cannot let him wear you out. The things he throws at your body, you got to make up in your mind you're going to trust God by faith. Because if he wears you down and you faint and you give up, that is the only way— we're going to pray about this in a moment— he's going to be able to get in. So you, again, you cannot— hear me, guys— let him wear you out. Oh we, oh we, oh we, oh we. My God, today you got to choose, ladies and gentlemen. You got to choose to stand your ground because the Bible tells us here your season won't be hindered, that the enemy will be defeated and the kingdoms of this world will go into our hands. So what we have to do, glory to the name of God, is keep standing, keep striving in faith and trusting the— trusting the mind of God and the word of God. Glory to God. All right, let's, let's keep moving. Let's go to 1 Chronicles 12:32. We're gonna pray in a moment. The Bible says this again, I'm reading out of the English Standard Version this morning. Uh, oh my God, we give you the glory. 1 Chronicles 12:32, it says, of Issachar, men who had understanding of the times to know what Israel ought to do, 200 chiefs and all their kinsmen under their command. Listen, so the Bible is saying here your season won't be hindered, but you and I, we have to understand the times. We cannot be so secluded inside of the church that we don't understand what's going on around us, that we don't understand the times we live in, so that we know how to pray. So we, we gotta know what's against us. Again, we're going to pray about this in a moment. We got to know what wages war against our destiny, against our purpose. We got to understand our value to the times, and we got to have a clarity and an understanding of these times. Come on, man, so that we'll know what to do. Many times we don't know what to do because we don't understand the times. We don't know how to— we don't know how to move and function in the times we live in. Oh boy. And so we'll— we become listless, we become lost, we become discouraged on many ends because we don't understand the times. But I hear that, I hear that, I hear that. Father, bless her in Jesus' name. Touch. God, lift the burden, destroy the yoke in the name of Jesus. We bind every hindering spirit in the name of the Lord Jesus. Glory to God. Excuse me, I, I just got a pass from the Lord, a quick pass. Someone dropped in my spirit and I just started praying for him, so please forgive me. Glory to God. I just saw them, I saw them in this despondent state, this rebellious state, but in the name of Jesus, I decree and declare victory and deliverance in their life even now, in Jesus' name. I declare the love of God, the peace of God that surpasses all understanding. We give you glory, God. We give you glory. Thank you, Lord. You got to understand the times so you will know what you should do. Glory to God. Remember, and, and, and it's not anyone I see here. I'm— it just dropped in my head, guys. Glory to God. So don't, don't try to figure out who that— who it is, because I'm not going to tell you. Just pray. Glory to the name of God. Hallelujah. You may not even know them. Glory to God. Listen, Psalms 31 and verse 15. Glory to God. We give you glory. My times are in your hand. Oh boy. You all type on this, the season. Glory, my God. Type on the screen, I'm sorry, my season will not be hindered. Oh boy. Why, why won't it be hindered? Because your times are in his hand, which literally means your life is in his hands. So nothing can stop you because you are in the hand of God. Oh my God, rescue me from the hand of my enemies and from my persecutors. God says your life is in his hands. And here there's— here, this prophetically, he says he's gonna reach down into your life, into your situation with his long arm, my God, and his strong hand. And pull you up and rescue you from what you're dealing with, from what you're going through. Oh my God, today, Eba Satamaya, we give you glory, we give you honor, we give you praise. Elebesotomaya, we bless you, God. We give you glory, God. We honor you. We magnify your great name. Glory to God. We bless you, we bless you, God. We bless you that our season will not be hindered, God. Ecclesiastes 3, glory to the name of God. Scripture says, for everything, in verse number 1, there is a season and a time for every manner under heaven. A time to be born and a time to die. A time to plant, a time to pluck up what has been planted. A time to kill, a time to heal. A time to break down, a time to build up. A time to weep, a time to laugh. A time to mourn, a time to dance. A time to cast away stones and a time to gather stones. The time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing. A time to seek, a time to lose. A time to keep, a time to cast away. A time to tear A time to sow, a time to keep silence, and a time to speak. A time to love and a time to hate. A time to war and a time for peace. Here's the point: your season can't be stopped. Listen, your season— for every purpose under the sound of my voice, every purpose under the sun Yes, God. Oh, every purpose under the sun, it can't be stopped. Two things about a season. Number one, you can't start one. Yeah, you— the seasons and times are in the hands of God, right? So you can't start it no matter how bad you want it. Number two, you can't stop it. So when is your time to emerge, to come forth in your season? A blessing, your season of your assignment, the season of breakthrough. There's nothing in heaven, hell, or earth that will be able to stop it because it's been set by God. God won't stop it because it's his plan, it's his time. The only thing that stops it is that you're in your own way. Glory to God. Daniel 2:21-22, the Bible says he changes times and seasons. He removes kings and sets up kings. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding. Verse 22: He reveals deep and hidden things. He knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells in him. Again, to encourage you and give you hope concerning your season, concerning the promise of God over your life, concerning the prophecy over your life, concerning your destiny, God's plan, what God's thinking about you. This is the hope. He controls it. He's involved. He's imminent. He's transcendent. He's connected to the process. Your heart is beating because your season is necessary. You're breathing this morning You got up early this morning with another opportunity because you, my friend, are necessary. The earth needs you. Glory to God. We give you glory. Now, here's another thing. So let me walk through this. Glory to God. So your season will not be hindered. And, and I want to tell you also, and we're going to pray about this, listen, that your troublemakers— hear me— they've already lost. So your season won't be hindered. We've read scripture, we're going to pray about that. And secondly, we're going to pray and enforce the fact. We're going to enforce this covenant of the word we're about to read, that your troublemakers— orangi satapabaya— have already lost. They've already been defeated. Kletaman sotakai emandiosi. They've already been defeated. Oh glory, oh glory! Just type that in the comments, guys. My troublemakers have lost. Yeah, your troublemakers have lost. They've— anybody that the enemy is using to bring you trouble, glory to God, they have already loss. Let's go to Psalm— glory to the name of God— 5. Glory to the name of God. Psalm 5:30. Let's start there. Thank you, Lord. He's a good God. He's a good God. He's a good God. Thank you, Jesus. All right, come on, Bible. Oh, Bible. Psalm 5:30. I'm sorry, 5 and 3. That's why my Bible ain't fine, ain't no 30. Glory to God. Psalm 5 and 3. Y'all ready? The Bible says this, it says, oh Lord, in the morning You hear my voice? All right, so we're already good right here, right? Because we're up in the morning, we're talking to God. I need you to understand that God hears you when you pray today. He hears your voice. Psalm 5:3: In the morning I prepare sacrifice for you and watch, for you are not a God who delights in wickedness. Evil may not dwell with you. The boastful shall not stand before your eyes. You hate— here we go— all evildoers. Verse 6: You destroy those who speak lies. The Lord abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man. But I, through the abundance of your steadfast love, will enter your house. I will bow down toward your holy temple in the fear of you. Lead me, O Lord, in your righteousness, because my enemies make your way straight. Before me. Listen, your troublemakers— did y'all hear that? They've already lost because God has no delight in wickedness. Again, he's fighting for you, he's battling for you. Glory to God! He wants to see you win. Psalm 7:14, let's, let's go. Behold, the wicked man conceives evil and is pregnant with mischief and gives birth to lies. So those that are talking about you, gossiping about you, stop concerning yourself with it. Lying on you, are plotting evil against you. Hear me. Oh my God, trying to stop your progress. That— I mean, they can see evil, that's what they do. So no need concerning with it. Watch verse 15. He makes a pit, digging it out, and he falls into a hole that he has made. His mischief returns upon his own head. And on his skull his violence descends. So watch this, he's giving birth to evil, coming after you, making trouble to you. The Bible is saying here, if you do warfare God's way and stand in peace, let God fight for you, this stuff is going to go back to them. They're going to reap what they're sowing, and you're going to come out victorious. Oh we, oh we, oh we, oh we. Good God. That was Psalm 7:14-16. Uh, go to Psalm 34:21. We're moving. Affliction will slay the wicked, and those who hate the righteous will be condemned. But verse 22, the Lord redeems the life of his servants. None of those who take refuge in him will be condemned. So the wicked, your troublemakers— hear me— those that work evil, you don't got— you don't have to fight that. You have to war against that. Glory to God. God is fighting for you. Hear me, the troublemakers have already lost because they're not going up against you when you stay out of it. Come on, stay out of it. Your troublemakers have lost. Let God handle it. Just pray the word. Glory to God. Just pray this word and let God handle it and be done. And do what you got to do. All of that is all of the things that the enemy throws He throws distractions so he can create delays. He's trying to get you distracted and looking at what he's doing so he can delay the move of God in your life, so you spend the time paying attention to his evil ways. Yeah, I, I just have learned, you know, in my walk with God, guys, I'm not going to waste my time, you know, first of all, allowing anyone Anyone in my life— children, spouse, church members, family members, anyone— to make me feel guilty. Watch this, about what they're doing to themselves. At the end of the day, I can't carry that. Glory to God. Because you gotta own that. And, and really, what that is, not them, it's a trick of the enemy. Trying to make you feel bad about what somebody is actually doing to themselves. And the reality is you don't have to carry that. And you have to learn how to take that thing to the Lord and pray about it. Avoid strife, avoid conflict with it. But you ain't got to pay attention to somebody, you know, trying to make you depressed and sad and, and feel bad about what they're doing to them. You, you create a delay, man. You can't really be a help to them because you get on the same level and back into it. Oh boy, that's a dangerous door to walk through right there. Glory to God. Yeah, you know, glory to the name of God. You, you have to, you have to stay focused. You have to stay locked because the enemy use all kind of subtle tactics. Say he often comes through the people that are closest to her. He'll come through our children, man, especially children. Glory to the name of God. And you got to be very careful that you don't allow your children to make you walk in guilt and condemnation because of something they're doing wrong. Okay, all right, all right, okay, I'm gonna leave it alone. I talked about your children. Glory to God. So, oh, it's okay, it's okay. Hallelujah! I'm trying to help you. Glory to the name of God. All right, I'm gonna keep going, I'm gonna keep going. Stay in the course, Michael. Glory to God. But, but affliction, the Bible says, will sway the wicked. All right, go to Psalm 35. We're rocking and rolling. Psalm 35, verse 1. He said, continue, Lord, with those who contend with me. Fight against those who fight against me. Take hold of the shield and buckler and rise for my help. Draw the spear and javelin against my pursuers. Say to my soul, I am your salvation. Let them be put to shame and dishonor who seek after my life. Sound like the troublemakers don't stand a chance against the people of God. Sound like they can't hinder your season. Sound like these troublemakers have already lost, guys. Sound like it's over for them. Oh my God. He said, let them be like the chaff before the wind and the angel of the Lord driving them away. Let their way be dark and slippery with the angel of the Lord pursuing them. But without cause they hid their net for me. Without cause they dug a pit for my life. God, yeah, I hear that. I just heard that. I just got a new series out of this reading scriptures this morning. I'm gonna teach a series entitled Pitology. Pitology. How, how God delivers us from pits. How God, uh, uses pits to promote us. Glory to the name of God. Yeah, I gotta, I gotta work on that one. Glory to God. The reality is, because the enemy is constantly laying traps, but the reality is every pit already has a place of victory in it. Every pit already has a springboard inside of it to usher you into the palace. Oh my God, let me, let me keep moving, let me keep moving. Uh, Psalm 52:5. Glory to God. Oh boy. The Bible said, but God will break you down forever. He will snatch you and tear you down. Oh my God, from your tent. He will uproot you from the land of the living. That he's talking about the troublemaker. He's going to uproot him from your life, from your situation. Oh God, this is so good. Psalm— oh boy, Psalm 83 and verse 13. Psalm 83 and 13. The Bible says, oh my God, make them like whirling dust, like chaff before the wind, as fire consumes the forest, as the flame sets the mountains ablaze. So you pursue them with your tempests and terrify them with your hurricane, your troublemakers. Do you hear how God is for you? Well, I mean, really, this morning— I know it's early, but do you hear how he's for you? How he is? You just need to pray these scriptures. I hope you're writing them down, so when your troublemakers start making trouble Instead of you making trouble with them and getting in strife and conflict, pray this word and, and let God deal with the trouble. Oh my God, oh my God. So if it's troubling your soul, what you worried about it for? Glory to God. I'm telling you right now, you ain't got to. You don't have to. Trust the Lord. Hallelujah. Because The troublemakers have already lost. Uh, Psalm 141:10. We working. Glory to the name of God. Let the wicked fall into their own net. Boy, this series right here is going to be good. While I pass by safely. Woo! So when you see the trouble ahead and people coming at you with trouble, you just pray this prayer. Pray the word. Say, Lord, in Jesus' name, I thank you for your word in Psalm 141:10. Let my troublemakers fall in their own net so I can safely pass through. Oh boy, you're protected, you're covered, God's got you. Glory to God. Esther 9:25. Glory to God. But when it came before the king, he gave orders in writing that his evil plan that he had devised against the Jews should be be returned on his own head, and he and his son should be hanged on the gallows. Are you hearing this? He'll make the troublemakers turn on themselves and their own plan against you. That's how special you are to God. That's how loved you are by God. He loves you. I need you to hear me. He loves you. Good God Almighty, he loves you. He loves you. He loves you so very much. That's all this is, is him loving you. And he loves you enough to protect you. God, we're gonna pray in a moment. Lord, have mercy. Good God. See, I'm gonna crush him. I'm gonna destroy him. Glory to God. Proverbs 26 and 27: Whoever digs a pit will fall into it, and a stone will come back on him who starts it rolling. I'm gonna just keep reading because I can't teach that series now. Uh, Proverbs 28:10. We're gonna pray these scriptures Glory to God. Whoever misleads the upright into an evil way— oh my God— will fall into his own pit. Be careful trying to deceive a righteous person. Glory to God. One that has covenant with God. Hallelujah. The Bible says you're gonna fall in your own pit, but the blameless will have a goodly inheritance. Keep your integrity, hold your head up high. Walk right. Watch this, let me tell you what integrity is. It's doing what you say you'll do, and when you can't do it, it's saying why you can't do it. It's, it's being honest. Glory. You gotta, you gotta walk in a goodly way. You gotta, you gotta maintain integrity so that God will fight for you. Oh my God, when your enemies war against you. But if, if you, if you're a crook out here, glory to God, and you're trying to deceive everybody, and you don't handle your business correctly, and you're trying to manipulate people with your situation. Come on, come on, glory to God. God can't fight for you. Let me go, let me go. let me just keep going because, because, okay, Daniel 3. Daniel 3, there's a lot in here. You know the story. They threw these guys in the fire, all right? These 3 Hebrew men, they weren't boys, they were men. Bible never says they're boys. He threw them in the fire, in a, in a, in a fiery furnace, which was a pit that had— they're just burned with fire. Right? It was a transparent pit that you could see inside of, apparently. Threw them in the fire. Instead of them burning up, the Son of Man gets in the fire with them and they, they're not consumed. But everybody else around the fire, people to put them in, are consumed. Everybody else that goes in the fire before them is consumed. This, this thing has worked for Nebuchadnezzar. He's a terrorist. But when you're a worshiper, when you're dedicated to God like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, God will not let the things that consume others consume you. He will cause your troublemakers to lose. Oh my God, you just came by. I don't have time. I don't have time. Glory to God. Same thing, the king put Daniel in a lion's den. Daniel 6, that didn't work. Glory to God, lions became his pillows. It came back on the king. God loves you. Y'all see it? The troublemakers have lost. Matthew 7:15, let's read. Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. Here we go. So you got to beware of false prophets because they have an appearance on the outside. They are prophetic, they're God, that what they're saying is on point, what they're saying is accurate. But inwardly, their motive is bloodshed, their motive is destruction. It says you'll recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thorn bushes or figs from thistles? So Every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down into the fire. Thus you will recognize them by their fruit. So prophecy is going to edify, prophecy is going to come to pass, prophecy is going to be made clear and known in the future when it happens. You know, we're trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified. A true prophet never seeks to glorify themselves. Their prophetic utterance always comes to bring glory and honor to God. Hear me, guys. Hear me, hear me good. Hear me what I tell you. You got to learn how to honor the Lord with the fruit of your lips, with the fruit of your voice. Glory to God. With the fruit of your lifestyle and your behavior. Well, I got to keep moving. I got to keep moving. Listen, I pray you're getting blessed by this. Uh, 2 Corinthians 11:14, because I sure am. 14 and 15: And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. Verse 15: So it is no surprise if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. And watch this, their end will correspond with their deeds. So when you were phony, when you're fake, when you come as an angel of light, when you come as something else to deceive those who are anointed, oh my God, your demise, the scripture says, is going to match your deeds. You reap what you sow, ladies and gentlemen. And we got to be careful that we don't sow bad seeds, that we do the right thing, that we stand— hear me— in righteousness. Glory to God. Let's pray. Glory to the name of God. So your troublemakers have lost. Your season will not be stopped. Glory to the name of God. Your season will not be stopped. Oh my God, it will not be hindered. So let's pray. Father, in Jesus' name, today we nullify, we veto, we disapprove. We rebuke, we bring into order, we bring to— oh my God— abasement every plan, every diabolical scheme of the enemy that has warred against us. We, we forcefully oppose oppose every satanic operation that wars against us. Oh my God, today, and we decree and declare our season will not be hindered. God, we oppose every maneuver, every manipulation, every strategy, every satanic intelligence that has been deployed against us. We decree and declare it will not work. And we declare this morning that no weapon formed against our season will be able to prosper. And we declare, oh my God, again, that our season will not be hindered. Every subversion, every tactic, every plot, every plan, every ploy that has been designed to hinder us, to prevent, to frustrate, oh my God, to stop, to delay our season. God, we bind it up now in the name of Jesus, for your word declares whatsoever we bind on earth, you will bind in heaven. So Father, we bind it now. We say, devil, you're a liar. And we say, Satan, the blood be against you. On this 10th day of this fast, we decree and declare that we will not be stopped. Oh my God, we will not be hindered, we will not be held back. Oh God, we will not be destroyed. Our enemies will be at peace with us. Oh yes, God. That our plans, God, will not be delayed. They will not be denied. Glory to God. We will not be thwarted. We will not be removed from the course. But God, we thank you that your design, glory to God, will come forth in our life quick. I decree and declare today that there will be a quick and speedy manifestation, dear God. Thank you, Father, of your will and your way for our life, God. And we declare our season— We declare our season will not be hindered in the name of Jesus. We will not be slowed down, we will not back away, we will not be still. Glory to God! We will keep driving forward, we will keep plowing forward as servants of the Most High. And we will not be stopped. And I decree and declare, God, that our times, according to the scripture we read today, are in your hand. And you— Aman she ye bashi kota bababanshe tekiaya. Oh my God, and these times and these plans and our life will not be altered by the enemy. Oh, Shabba Batai, Kanda debo siyantabaya. I decree and declare that our purpose lives. The authentic, perfect purpose of God for our life lives. We will not settle for a phony, because many times, Father, we're hindered because we settle for a pseudo purpose. We settle for something that's fake. We settle for something that wasn't your plan, and so the blessing is delayed. So Father, I rebuke now the settling spirit, that we settle for things that you didn't plan, that you didn't ordain, that we accept things that wasn't your will. Oh God. Oh God, oh God, today help us, help us, guide us through to not settle. Many times we're hindered because we open our lives to people that don't belong. We open our inner circle to people that don't belong. Oh God, oh God, help us, help us, help us, help us, help us, God. To not accept the phony, to not accept— oh my God— pseudo manifestations of your purpose, but help us to embrace the authentic so we will not be hindered. God, in the mighty name of Jesus, we read, God, that we got to be like the sons of Issachar, and we got to understand the time so we'll know what we ought to God, I pray for your people this morning, and I'm asking you, dear God, to help them to have clarity and understanding of the times we live in, so we'll know how to pray, God, so we'll know how, how to fast, so we'll know, God, how to study, how to— oh my God, so we'll know how to behave and act and react to these times as children of the kingdom. And we give you praise and glory for it now, Lord. Oh, in the mighty name of Jesus, in the mighty name of Jesus, in the mighty name of Jesus, we thank you that our season will not be hindered. Our season cannot be stopped. Glory to God. No witchcraft, no goofy dust, no chain letter, no manipulating attitudes, no intimidating attitudes, no depressing attitudes can stop our season. Will emerge, will arise, and will go forth in the mighty name of Jesus. We give you glory, God. Hallelujah. We give you honor. Yes, my season will not be hindered. Your season will not be hindered. And we decree and declare, God, that our troublemakers— glory to God— have already lost. Yeah. We thank you, God, for this purpose was the Son of God manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. And even as we've read every scripture we read today, God, we decree and declare that every one of these words— oh God, that angels will be released at our charge to enforce the covenant of this word in our life. And Father, we ask you today to overthrow the plans of troublemakers, cynics— oh my God— here, gossipers, mockers, liars, whisperers. Overthrow their— oh my God— overthrow their plans in the name of Jesus. Cause their plans according to these words to be null and void. Every persecutor, every character assassin, Overthrow their plan in the name of Jesus. And Father, I'm asking you now in the name of Jesus for each of us under the sound of my voice, whether live or by replay, I'm asking you now, God, to expose, expose satanic representatives, those that represent Satan, those that are in our life, in our circle, that are there for the right motives. Expose those that are satanic in their presence so we'll know whether it's a business partner, whether it's a friend, whether it's an old friend, where there's a family member. God exposed them so we are not blind, so we see the snake in our midst, so we understand the times like the sons of Isaac car. Father, do it for us, God. Oh God, even as you expose the satanic representatives according to these texts, my God, give us divine strategies. Yeah. Oh God, so that we can— oh, so that we can attack in wisdom and in love, not destroying them but bringing them to you. Oh, we pray for our enemies, we pray for our troublemakers, we pray for those that despitefully use us and work all manner of evil against us. Oh God, we thank you. That every plot, every plan that is designed for our demise from our troublemakers, we thank you that we have the intelligence, we have the strategy to overthrow that plan, to overthrow that plot. And Father, yeah, I see that. Help us not to war against those that really love us. Help us not to run from those that really care. Help us to not define those that come to help us as troublemakers. Many times we open the door for the troublemakers because we're rejecting the peacemakers. Oh, yeah, God. Oh my God, today, oh, God says you got to stop rejecting the peacemakers because you're opening a portal in your life for satanic troublemakers to get in because you're not paying attention. You're thinking that people that come to bring peace and edification and empowerment and to help you come to make trouble. Oh God, listen. Yes God, yes God, your troublemakers have laws, but you can't help them kill you by rejecting help. By rejecting, oh my God, truth, by rejecting God and his plans. So Father, I implore the host of heaven now in the name of Jesus. I implore the host of heaven to enter into our space, our world, And I decree and declare that the angels are warring on our behalf right now. For angels hearken to the voice of thy word. We've read this word this morning, many in the Psalms, many in the Proverbs, many concerning the prophets. And we decree and declare that our troublemakers have lost and that we win, and that we're more than a conqueror through Christ that loves us. Thank you for loving us, God. That with this whole thing, this whole thing, God, of, of our season not being hindered and our troublemakers losing and you protecting us is about your love. So thank you, dear God, for your perfect love that casts out fear. We're not afraid of trouble. Oh no, oh no, because we're going to pass through it safely. Glory to God. Because even though we see the nets, we see the traps, Oh God, you've exposed the enemies to us. God, we're going to pass through safely and the trap won't work. We return every attack, every witch, every warlock, every attack of the enemy, we return it to cinder. And Father, you said in your word, you suffer not a witch to live. So God, if they continue witching, if they continue being a warlock, we sentence them to death. Gloria to Yansatabaya. Our preference, God, is that they repent, is that they discover you, and they cease their wicked ways. In the name of Jesus, we give you glory, God. We honor you. Come on, just worship him right now. Just worship him right where you are. Your season will not be hindered. Your season will not be stopped. Your enemies have been defeated. Your troublemakers have lost. Come on, worship God. Come on, give him glory. Give him glory that you stand right now in victory. Come on, just lift up your hands, open up your mouth right where you are, right where you are, and just come on, just begin to go into a worship. I wonder what will happen if the few of us that's on this prayer this morning would just go into a real worship, a passionate pursuit of his heart, a passionate pursuit of his mind, and just begin to glorify the King for his love and for his protection. Come on, just love on him for a moment. Love on him. What? We love you, Lord. We love you, Lord. We love you, Lord. We love you, Lord. We adore you, God. We lift you up. We extol you.

Thank you for the perfect love that you've shown us, how you've covered us, how you've kept us when we didn't deserve it. Your grace has been sufficient for us. Even when we pursued ways that seemed right, you got us off that way so we would not be destroyed. We worship you, God. Mercy found us. Grace saved us. And justice has kept us. Open up the equity of heaven to us, God. And carry us through. We give you glory. We give you honor, God. We give you praise. We give you praise. We give you praise. You're worthy of the glory.
