Chapters
Oh well, praise the Lord! This is the day the Lord has made, and we shall rejoice and be glad in it. Welcome to 5 AM Prayer. Listen, family, if you have not shared this yet, please go ahead and do so. Uh, I believe our time together is going to be a blessing not only to us but to anyone who will tap in this morning. The Bible says, "Men should always pray and never faint." Man, what a powerful instruction that gets us close to God, that gets us interference from heaven. So we're doing something that really is fought more than any other thing on earth when it comes to being a kingdom citizen in the earth. Because the enemy understands if he can get us not to pray, not to spend time with God, he understands, family, that he has a chance of deceiving us. He has a chance, my God, of keeping us distracted and ultimately thwarting the destiny and plan of God for our life. And we just can't have that. Glory to God. So I'm super excited to spend some time in prayer with you today. Good to see so many of you. Uh, God bless you, Sharia. Mr. Burns, God bless you. TK, God bless you. Those of you that are coming, Minister Anderson, God bless you. Minister Vicki, God bless you. Nicole, God bless you. Stephanie Stewart and Mother Diane, uh, God bless you. Zion and Pastor Jeffrey, uh, God bless you. Prophet Shannon, just good to see those that are commenting below. Uh, again, thank you for being here. I believe that we're going to be blessed this morning. And so as I see it, please share it and let somebody else know. Listen, I want to jump right into this. I'm eager to get started and to pray. Um, I believe we have a reason to talk to God, and we're going to talk to him. Glory to God. And you know what, not just to ask him for stuff, but really to fellowship with him because he is God. So we're going to pray like we always do this morning. We're going to pray the word. Glory to God. And so that means we're going to read the text that we're going— for those of you that are new here, uh, we're going to read the text first that we're going to pray through, because the Bible said if you ask anything according to his will, he will do it. And, uh, his will, guess what, is his word. So when we read his word and we pray that will God now, who cannot lie, the angels align themselves because they hearken to the voice of the word to bring to pass what we pray. So this is why we read then pray. And our prayer focus this morning, we're praying for finances for the ministry, we're praying for finances for the vision. Uh, if I was going to put a title on it, I would call it Provision for a vision. You know, God is so interested in making sure we have what we need, uh, to do what he has asked us to do. Um, we had a great meeting with our, uh, executive team last night concerning the vision God has given our church. Uh, we're currently under contract, uh, for those of you in our church, you know it. For those of you visiting here, again, um, glory to God, we're in an exciting time. We're getting ready to purchase a new facility Uh, we're moving quickly to a close, and we're just believing God that we'll hit every benchmark necessary from down payment, from, uh, renovations of the building, things we need to do to move into our new property prior to close. Amen. So we believe God supernaturally holds that. Now watch this. I have said to those connected to this vision, uh, whether it's our church members or partners in the church who are not members but partners with the ministry, that Your support is vitally important to this. Now, God knows that. So because God has given such a great vision that you are connected to, that means he wants to position you in the realm of impossibility where you can give in ways you haven't given before. But you got a purpose in your heart, you want to. And I believe prayer is one of the ways we start purposing in our heart that we want to support what God has called us to do. Listen, even in your own life, hear me, with your own vision, you have to understand the power of giving that's connected to your dream, right? So let's, um, let's dive into this. Glory to God, uh, and we, we praise God for his goodness. We praise him for his mercy. Thank you, God. We thank him for his grace. Oh, praise God. So let's look first at Luke 6 and 38. Let's just start there. We're gonna pray, pray this thing through, man, because we believe God hears us when we pray. Praise God. Luke 6:38, the Bible says, is give— here it is, I'm reading out Amplified— and gifts will be given to you, good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will they pour into your pouch, your pocket formed by the bosom of your robe and used as a bag. I love this. For the measure you deal out, with the same measure you use when you confer benefits on others— watch this— it will be measured back to you. So he says here, give, all right, give, give, give. He said give and it shall be given. So there's an exchange there, right? So, and, and, and a lot of times our expect— our expectancy to receive is not contingent upon our giving because we think that that ought to be just something that God does because we're his children. But the reality is he releases principle, and this is a kingdom principle of exchange. He says, give and it shall be given. And don't shoot the messenger this morning. I know it's 5 o'clock in the morning, we're talking about giving. But again, and this is not even just about money. This is about giving, period. Giving of your talent, your time, giving of your, hallelujah, service and your purpose and your assignment. Payment to the world. You know, this principle is a principle of release. Nothing leaves heaven until something leaves earth. So he says, give and it shall be given to you. Watch this, he tells you how: good measure. So in other words, the word good there means profitable, in a profitable measure. So he's going to measure it in alignment with what is given. So he— it's, it's a fair measure. So based on what you give. So, ah, God, the old— they used to sing a song in church, the more you give, the more he gives back to you. And growing up as a child in church, you hear that and you think that, okay, well, they're singing this because They want us to give money to the church, but honestly, I want you to get that out of your head. The church is an entity that's called by God, and it's one of the places that God uses as a receptacle. All right, when you give, you have to have the attitude that you are giving to God. I'm going to say that again. You got to have the attitude that you are giving to God. Oh my, oh my. So he says, I'm gonna give it back good measure. I'm gonna give it back pressed down. So I'm gonna push, I'm gonna measure it out in profitable proportions, but then I'm gonna press it down so you can make room for more. Because when it leaves your hand, it's multiplying because you're giving it to God. So he says, I'm gonna multiply the measure and I will press down your receptacle, your— where you receive, so you can make room for more. I'm gonna shake it together. In other words, again, that's another sense of compacting your receptacle so that more room can be made for the increase that's coming. He says, and running over. So this— so I'm gonna press it down, shake it together, and then now I'm gonna fill up your receptacle so that it's gonna run over 'cause you're gonna be blessed to be a blessing to others. Oh boy. Hallelujah. And he says this, this is great, that men will give to your bosom. Now I love how God does this exchange. This is still God moving, right? So you give to him and then he gives you favor with man. Or he influences man-made institutions to give back to you in a good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over way. I love this, man. He says, for with the same measure— here we go. So, so your, your seed or your giving, whatever you're giving, is proportionate to the harvest. So the harvest is gonna always be aligned with whatever the gift is that you give, right? So let's say you give somebody a car, then car will come back good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will men give to your bosom. Let's say you give love to someone, love comes back good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, shall men give to your bosom. Y'all get it? You give money, money comes back, good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, shall men give to your bosom in proportion to what you give. So it's fair, it's fair, man. The reality is if you're sitting somewhere without joy or without love, Maybe you should check how much love and joy you're giving away because this principle works. I just wanna say this, whether it's working directly for you or not at this phase in your life, it actually works. And you have to dismiss all the error that tell you it doesn't work. It works. And you gotta believe the word and watch this, you gotta pray the word and trust angels to bring to pass this when you pray. So let's pray. Glory to God. Let's pray Luke 6:38. Praise the name of God. Hallelujah. We give you praise, God. So Father, we thank you that because the people connected to this ministry, and because of the dreams and purposes and visions that you have given them, every God— and God, because we are purposing in our heart God, to give toward a worthy cause, to procure ownership, because you told us to possess the land. So as kingdom citizens, we shouldn't be renting, we should be owning. And Father, it's not, uh, Felicia Woods Church, it's not Michael Woods Church, it is collectively Rhoda Church. It is your church, and it is the people's ministry. And so Father, we thank you that as we give toward a project that's going to shape the minds and hearts of young people, toward a project that not only will be a worship facility, but a place where we can do fellowship, we can educate our children, we can minister to our community food and clothes, and, and we can establish programs to help our community be better. And we give you praise and glory for that. And so God, we thank you for the people that even as I'm I'm praying now that you're purposing in their heart to partner and to be a part of what you called us to do. Thank you for the hundreds upon hundreds and even thousands of souls that'll be saved because of this purchase at 3060 Boulder Crest Road. Thank you that you overwhelm us financially, that as we give to this vision and as you send others that'll give to this vision, God, that the blessing will come back to them, good measure, pressed down, shaken together, shonku, bransaba, bankoshi, antataia, and omagesko toto shebikantea, shall men give to their bosom. And we thank you for it. We thank you for favor with men and favor with you, because we choose to take the posture of givers. Bless every household under the sound of my voice, God. Oh God, I think about— as they purpose in their heart to bless the kingdom. God, I thank you that resources will come from the north, the south, the east, and the west. I call in resources from every place and space, God, to bless your people. Yabasoko tabadianza. As we purpose our heart to give in the mighty name of Jesus. Oh God, I give you glory. As we purpose our heart to sacrifice, thank you that you're going to fill our bank accounts with seed to sow. Thank you that as we purpose it in our heart, this will not be a burden. Oh, it will not be a heavy responsibility, but you will make this easy. Hallelujah. And this burden will be light because you will supernaturally give us the faith to trust you as we give. And we bless you for it now. We give you glory, God, and we thank you now. Hallelujah. In the name— In the name of Jesus, we declare it to be so. Somebody ought to bless God. Amandekosi anta ya. You ought to bless the Lord. Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah. We give you praise, God. Hallelujah. And we believe, God, because you have called Rhoda Church to further the cause, uh, to help adults and young adults and children and God and families come to the knowledge of truth, uh, my God, concerning dominion, concerning assignment, concerning purpose and, and self-actualization. God, we thank you that everything we need, hallelujah, is going to be provided. And because your people have a heart to work and a mind to build, hallelujah, we will see what you have promised come to pass, and we will not be disappointed. In the mighty name of Jesus. Oh my God, we declare it to be so. Halabashikote. Come on, come on, Zion. Give him praise and glory for what's coming. Let's go to Isaiah 10:27. Hallelujah! I feel the anointing. Yeah, I feel it even as we get ready to read, read this text right here. I feel the anointing. Ah, yeah, yeah, because my heart is always for people connected to what God has called us to do, and we always want you hallelujah, to have sweatless victory in everything you do, including taking responsibility toward what God has called us to do collectively. We want you to have joy about it. We don't want you to dread it and for it to be a burden. Ah, but this is why this text has showed up in my prayer focus this morning, because, you know, I don't want to bear the burden of worrying about what what you're thinking about or how you're feeling about having to be a part of building. This is a setup for blessing. Hallelujah! Glory to God! It's a setup for heaven to release to you what you need and more because you buy into God's vision. Watch this. Isaiah 10:27 says this, it says, and it shall be in that day— oh my God, Man, I'm telling you, we're going in, in 60 days, family, we're going to close on our new building. Hallelujah! And everything we need is going to be provided, and it's going to be provided through the members and partners of Rhoda Church. Glory to the name of God! And we believe God for that. Praise God. Watch this. And it shall be in that day that the burden shall depart from your shoulders. So this assignment we've been given, I don't want you to view it as a burden. I don't want you to view it as dread. Abakoshyanta tabaya. I don't want you to view it as an added level of responsibility that you gotta try to figure out how you gonna do it. No, this is not a burden. This is an opportunity because God will never reach prioritize something for you financially with— if he doesn't have a mind to replace it with good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over. Yeah, so this is not a burden. I want you to view it as an opportunity to receive good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over. Through. And secondly, an opportunity to buy into and be a part of— hear me— something that's going to bring liberty for years to come to the lives of so many people. Oh my God, we give you praise and glory for it. So he said, in that day, the burden is going to be removed from your shoulders. And his yoke from your neck. So watch this. In, in that day, and we're in that day now, hear me, because there's an anointing being released, glory to God, to seal, glory to the name of God, a promise that God has made to us. Hear me, to us. So God says, in, in lieu of this, I'm gonna, I'm gonna remove the burden piece and the yoke. A yoke is something you put on oxen, or even the thing that's on a horse can be, uh, attributed to a yoke because it guides and it controls. Many people are controlled by debt. We've been teaching about balance on Thursday nights. Make sure you join us this Thursday. We're going to keep teaching on balance, about being balanced finance, being balanced financially, why that is important. God says, I'm gonna remove the yoke. I'm gonna do the yoke of debt. I'm gonna remove the yoke of bad credit. God said some things are going to begin to happen for you supernaturally when you buy into, ah, what he has connected you to. Okay, you're not connected just to occupy a seat or to just say, I'm a partner with the ministry. No, you're there so you could buy into a kingdom project that God wants to use again to change lives in our region. All right, so he says the burden shall be removed, the yoke from your neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed. Ooh, because of the anointing, the oil. Glory to God. Woo! So, so, so now watch this. As you purpose in your heart to buy in, God is saying, I'm gonna release oil. Oh my God. An anointing that will destroy the yoke. Woo! God have mercy. Of debt, the yoke of bad credit that will destroy the yoke of financial irresponsibility or poverty. Hear me. I'm gonna take the burden from you because of this anointing that has showed up. And let me tell you something, because this assignment is upon us in this season, family, whoo! That anointing has been released. And every partner and every person that connects to what we have been called to do, that anointing has been released. Glory to God. You ought to grab it. You ought to receive it. Open your, and don't reject it and rejoice over it because there's an anointing hallelujah, to release. Watch this, as you watch this, what you make happen for others, I'm a firm believer God will make happen for you. And especially if you make something happen for him, we just read it in Luke 6:38. So watch this, as we work to secure our building and then eliminate that million-dollar debt in 12 months, hear me, family, whoo, there's gonna be anointings released all throughout the membership and the partnerships of the church for debt-free cars and debt-free land and debt-free houses. This anointing that's on the church to complete the assignment as we build God's house, ah, glory to God, is going to be released to your house. Oh, somebody ought to rejoice. Glory. Somebody ought to rejoice. Oh Father, we thank you now for the anointing that removes the burdens, oh God, over my of our church life. And God, we're not gonna see. I declare in the name of Jesus, I release angels at my charge to create a vantage point and perception of buying into vision. Glory to God. That is one to be rejoiced over. A perception of giving that is cheerful and hilarious, for you love a cheerful giver, God. God, and we thank you, Lord, that you'll even send those new partners. Glory to God. We give you praise and glory. Hallelujah. New partners that will add to the partners we have that carry the anointing. Oh God, to secure our new building, our million-dollar building we have under contract. We thank you for the partners that are coming, the partners that are here, and we thank you for the anointing, hallelujah, that destroys the yoke, that gives liberty and freedom to sow into this vision in the name of Jesus. Woo-wee! Thank you for the anointing, the anointing, the anointing, glory to God, that destroys yokes and removes the burden and gives us the freedom for where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. We thank you, God. Eh, shakotamande ansa. Thank you for those partners. We even thank you for the corporate partners that you're connecting to the church. Glory to God. Hallelujah. That won't put demands on our tenets of faith, but that will partner because they wanna see this ministry exist and make the changes in the community in the realm of the spirit that you have called us to make. And we praise you, we thank you for that anointing. We release angels at our charge, release that anointing, that perspective, that revelation. Woo, God. And to remove the burden. Glory to God. We thank you for it now. In Jesus' name. Woo, I just saw yokes falling off and hitting the ground. See, what that looks like, thank you, Holy Spirit, in the natural. So if there's an oxen— hear me— with a yoke on his neck, watch this. What they do is there's a, there's a, a bag or receptacle tied to that yoke, and to keep the control, there is fat put in that pouch. That is at the end of the yoke. And the scripture is implicating that the, the oil from the fatness, from the fat, it gets so greasy that it undoes the yoke and the yoke hits the ground. I'll say it like that. Yeah, I see it, God, and I'll say it just like that. There are yokes biting the dust, hitting the dust, hitting the ground even as I'm talking. Watch this. As you purpose in your heart to connect with vision, to connect with a dream, there's an anointing flowing that's loosing. Whoa! Shaka taba utabamandi kansiyan. You ought to receive it. I'm telling you. Your credit, that's loosing, glory to God, opportunities and contracts and deals in favor with men. That anointing is here. Father, we thank you for the anointing. We shoku shaban datatianso tobaki. We thank you for the anointing. But you gotta, one, prioritize the things that pertain to the kingdom, and you gotta decide All right, yeah, I'm gonna buy in. This is not a burden, it's an opportunity. Are y'all hearing me? To, oh, to walk in an oil that will change the trajectory of your life financially forever. Let me keep reading, glory to God, because I don't get stuck right there. 1 Corinthians 9, 1 Corinthians 9, we're gonna read verses 11 and verse 13. It says, if we have sown the seed of spiritual good among you, is it not too much— watch this— if we reap your material benefits? This is the Apostle Paul saying, okay, we sow unto you spiritual things, we speak revelation, we lead Is it too much as leaders who are giving you the most valuable things you need to live and survive, right? Is it too much? He's asked a question to ask you of your material things. Watch it. So that the work of the Lord can be done. Drop down to verse 13. Do you not know that those— oh my God— men who are employed in the services of the temple get their food from the temple, and that those who tend to the altar share with the altar in the offerings brought? So again, he's, he's, he's asking a rhetorical question, um, and he's assuming that that the listener understands the answer, that through their giving, ministry can go forth. And, and that's the understanding we want to pray through to here. So when you give, I don't want you to do it haphazardly. Now, the, the, the, the reality here is, as we're giving in this season, we're giving again. Our giving is targeted toward closing that building in 60 days. That's under contract, that million-dollar building, and having everything we need to get that done. That we're targeted at that. Our bill— our giving is targeted at paying off this building in 12 months, not to give me a salary, not to get me a new car. No, we want to eliminate that million-dollar debt, and we believe God's going to bless our members and partners to do it. But you got a purpose in your heart again that you, as you receive spiritual things, you can't put— watch this— you can't even put a monetary value is what he's saying on what you receive spiritually. And I'm not saying that because you're connected to me as a teacher. I'm saying that period. The reality is, what does it profit a man to gain the world and lose his soul? So the soul and soul food becomes more valuable. Are y'all hearing this? Than gaining the whole world. Ha! Because when you understand you can dominate the world, money just becomes a benefit. Hallelujah! Of your kingdom experience. So as a kingdom citizen, I want you to purpose in your heart that, hey, I can't put value on having a space where we can expand and have expansion even in our learning and development because we have space to do it. You know, a lot of the things in Rother City are going to be started in the new space. Rother University will be started right there, whether we started it just having evening classes or a Saturday college, however God leads us to do it, it's going to start right there. There. So that's going to be more expanse in the world and, and into the community where people will even have opportunity to come to an accredited university, get credentials and degrees to go and do what they're called to do in our area especially. So I'm, I'm hitting different aspects of why we're doing this. The reality is and I say we collectively receive from this move. We receive, all of us receive spiritually from this move. So we got to buy in and give to it so that the expansion can actually occur. Let's pray this. Father, we give you praise. Hallelujah. For 1 Corinthians 9, uh, verses 11 and 13. And I thank you, Lord. I thank you. Oh Jesus, I thank you that we never place a premium on spiritual matters, on your word, on soul food. But God, we know that we can't even pay for it through our giving, but we do it as a response, as a show of appreciation, understanding we need the temple We need the, the men and women of God in the temple. We need ministry to go forth. And so, Father, in the name of Jesus, we need every gift connected to this ministry, every partner connected to this ministry, to be able to operate inside of their gifting, even in this new place. And so, Father, as we receive spiritual things, we will sow our natural things. We will do it with great joy. Hallelujah. And we will do it, glory to God, because we want to see your hand move in the midst of our region. God, we'll do it because we can't place value on what we receive and what we have to give. So Father, we thank you for the expansion. We thank you you. Hallelujah. For us purposing in our heart to do more and to sacrifice at higher levels than we ever sacrificed before. In the mighty name of Jesus. Oh, glory, glory. I feel Jesus, y'all. Oh, Father, Father. Oh, glory, glory. 1 Timothy 2. I'm gonna keep going. Oh, shabandiya. I feel the Lord, I feel the Lord. Oh my God, I'm telling you that there's an anointing. I feel the anointing. Glory to the name of God to remove burdens and destroy yokes. And it just hit the heart of those who have purpose in their heart and mind to buy in. Oh, shabat, I'm a— listen, family, I'm telling you, the yokes, even as we're praying, those yokes are biting the dust. You, you better receive this. Glory to the name of God. Hallelujah! The burdens are being removed. Glory to God. God, we glorify, we glorify you. Okay, 1 Timothy 2. Glory to God. He said, first of all, then I admonish you and urge you that petition, prayers, intercession, and thanksgiving be made on behalf of all men. All right, that's what we're doing today. For kings and all who are in positions of authority or high responsibility, that outwardly we may pass a quiet and undisturbed life, and inwardly a peaceable one in all godliness and reverence and seriousness in every way. Verse 3: For such praying is good and right, and it is pleasing and acceptable to God our Savior. So as we pray— oh God, this is so good— for each other and pray for new partners, kings, and people in authority, watch this, it creates a peaceable life, a life filled with God's assistance. Because peace is not the absence of confusion. Anytime reading the scripture, whether it's Sirene in Greek or Shalom in Hebrew, uh, the connotation is the presence of God's assistance. That the Greek connotation literally means God assists through skill set. He assists through wisdom and ability. Watch this, and authority. So he has people already strategically placed who are ready to assist, to make sure we have a peaceable life. Oh God, hey, glory! My God, my God. And did y'all, did y'all hear me? We just read it, you know, that we can, hallelujah, have a quiet, undisturbed life, that we can live a life without stress. Glory to God. Because because we have partnered with God and we, watch this, we give times of prayer and intercession to others. Now watch this, watch how this connects to what I've been teaching about apostolic hubs. Phew. See, we understand that our church is not a normal church. We get it, we're clear. We've understood that for a long time. Some people, you know, they throw that word around lightly and not really understanding what a real apostolic hub is. But we, and we've proven that in this territory. So many people in the region called Georgia have come through our church and went on to do other things. Uh, watch this, even some that have come through and had bad motives and had to just come on through, glory to God. But watch this, in their bad motives, they still picked up things while they were there that they needed for their destiny. Destiny. That is so good, man. Listen, we're a hub, so we are here to connect kings and people in authority— uh, oh my God— to God and his kingdom and his principles. So we start by praying for them. Oh, so this is what's about— this is what we're about to do through this verse. We're going to pray for kings and politicians and athletes and celebrities. Glory to God. Was talking about in the meeting last night. I let my wife give her own testimony about this, but the Lord gave her a revelation, and she was praying, and God gave her a vision of a particular celebrity. Actually, I won't call his name on this prayer call, uh, that this particular celebrity was going to pay off the new church, plant a seed so sizable that it will be instrumental in paying off the new church. Now guess what? That doesn't excuse, excuse our responsibility because we still gotta— so much we got to do, man. All right, so the reality is we pray for these kind of partners though, so we're constantly in surplus and overflow. As she said, this person will also join the church, so we don't wait to— and then God has shown me so many times where we'll be a of, because Atlanta is the Hollywood of the South for celebrities and athletes to come through. Uh, one of the things we're going to do, um, and this is so powerful, is start a, uh, Bible study and prayer meeting that is explicitly for people who are in the entertainment industry. Uh, we're gonna— it's gonna be literally a Bible study prayer meeting for stars and athletes in Now guess what? We, we had to have— glory to the name of God— uh, a mindset to cover these people now and pray for them now. Glory to the name of God. So that their spirit will get troubled, so when the call comes, they assemble and they become a part. Oh, somebody just missed all of what I just said, but, um, let's pray. Father, we thank you We give you the glory, we give you the honor. We bless you, we give you praise. Ah God, we thank you for those that are on this prayer line, and we thank you, God, for those that are committed to what you've called us to do. Uh, there are people that have— will jump on this kind of prayer just to be nosy and, and to spy, but God, we bind up every spying spirit in the name of Jesus. We bind up every GPS tracker in the spirit that tries to locate, hallelujah, our destiny and tries to sabotage what you've called us to do. But in the name of Jesus, we give you praise that no weapon formed against us can prosper. So Father, we pray for governors and mayors and senators and congressmen, God, we decree and declare there. We pray for community leaders, God, in the— and commissioners and police chiefs, God, all over our region. We pray for athletes and celebrities, God, in the name of Jesus, that you would touch their life now. You said no man come to you except you suguru, except you draw them. So God, I pray even as we pray, you will begin to draw them into the kingdom. Draw them to Rhoda Church, draw them to partnership and connection to what you have called us to do. And we give you praise and glory for it now. Thank you, God, that as we pray for our politicians, our president, as we pray, God, hallelujah, for his staff and the whole institution of the presidency, we declare this land will be in peace, at peace, in the mighty name of Jesus. We give you glory, we give you honor, we give you praise. Hallelujah. You told us to pray for those that are in authority, and so we lift them up. We even pray for other spiritual leaders, God, who need the Hub. Glory to God. So that when we have leadership meetings and roundtables for pastors and discipleship trainings for pastors and senior leaders in our new facility, God, we thank you. That even as we offer these courses and these trainings free of charge, oh my God, that people will be able to come in and, and receive what they need. Thank you, God, for drawing them. Hallelujah. Thank you for the partners. Thank you for the angels that you'll release so that this vision can live and come to pass in Jesus' name. Oh, somebody ought to bless the Lord Lord. Thank you, Jesus. God, I love you. Hurakesha, man. God, we give you the glory, God. Oh, somebody ought to worship you, Jesus. Lord, we thank you. I'm almost done, family. Glory to God. Philippians 4:17. 18 and 19. I don't know about you, but I feel the anointing. I'm telling you, that anointing has been released to this— I keep going back to Isaiah 10:27— to destroy the yoke and remove the burden. That very power and presence of God God has showed up. Oh, to remove the burden. Glory to the name of God. How that oil is flowing even as I'm talking in the name of Jesus. I'm not yelling, but there's an anointing here right now. Listen, some of you, as you buy in as a partner You're gonna tap into this anointing, man, that's going to eliminate your mortgage and eliminate your car notes and eliminate your credit card debt and your student loan debt. Who are you? We're going to begin to command these debts to be removed from your life. Oh my God, I'm telling you, the yokes are biting the dust now. My God. Shabangora bakiantatabai. Hey, glory. Shabakala bohoshia. We give you praise, God. Let me read this. Philippians 4. Oh God, my God, I feel Jesus. I'm sorry, y'all, I feel the Lord here. Good God. Shemande koshia. Yes, Lord. He said, not that I seek or am eager for your gift, but I do seek and am eager for the fruit which increases to your credit, the harvest of blessing that is accumulating in your account. Wait a minute. So the apostle says to the Philippians here, wait, I'm not eager to just get money out of you. Oh yeah, listen to this. And I'm saying that to you, I'm not doing this just so you can— watch this— give money to the project. This is not a sales pitch or stack deck. My compassion— and if you ask the executive team, you know, My wife even rebuked me because something I was talking about last night, because I'm always giving. So the reality is I'm always concerned about people connected to what we call it too. My concern is like the apostle here. I want to see fruit abound to your account. Can I tell you something? There is harvest finances and breakthrough accumulating in the heavens right now, even as I'm talking on your behalf. It's— watch this— each one of you that's hearing my voice, whether live or by replay, accumulating in the heavens right now is— clip that— is financial breakthrough Oh, glory to God! And, oh, and increase is accumulating. Hallelujah! But you got to align yourself with God's plans so that what's accumulating for you can be released. You got a purpose in your heart where you stand when it comes to what God is speaking to you. Watch this, not just about Raleigh Church and our new building, but about your life and your purpose. You gotta align and be obedient so that what's being accumulated can be released in your life. Are y'all with me? Verse 18, he said, but I have your full payment and more. I have everything I need and they're amply supplied. Now that I have received from Epidaurus the gifts you sent me, they are the fragrant odor of an offering and sacrifice which God welcomes and in which he delights. Paul says, I'm not trying to collect money for myself. He's basically saying, I am blessed. Let's read verse 19. He said, my God shall liberally supply, fill to the full your every need according to his riches. His riches. According to his riches. Ah, so you're purposing in your heart to give $5,000, $10,000 to the cause of the ministry, to give— oh my God— a sacrifice you've never given to pay off a million-dollar debt in a year. Hear me, God says, I'm gonna liberally supply. This means to supply means if I have to manufacture it, I will. He needs the heart and the desire for real, oh, to obey and to do what he's asked you to do. He said, according to my riches. See, you, you can't base anything in life that you need to get done for God on your resources and your bank account. He said, I'm going to supply. This is a kingdom principle. The king says, I'm going to apply, supply what you need according to what I have. Not out of what I have, but according to it. God has everything. So in alignment with me owning everything, this is what I'm gonna do for you so you can do life the way it's supposed to be done as a kingdom citizen. How good is that? How good is that? Glory to God. Oh God, we thank you, we praise you, we give you the glory. So in the name of Jesus, I believe God that all the needs of Rhoda Church is met. I thank you. I think I saw somebody comment, said they're thanking God for the, the finances coming in from the north, the south, the east, and the west. We receive it in the name of Jesus. And Father, we thank you that according to Philippians 4:19, every need is met in our church and in the lives of your people. And we trust that it is done not according to us is done according to your riches in glory. So Father, we vow to stay in glory. Glory to God. Ha! Shabach, yam, tatobaya. We vow to stay in glory and fire and the wind of God and to stay in your presence and to entertain the doxa, the glory of God in everything we do. We vow, God, hallelujah, to stay in that glory 'cause that's where your riches are. Are. So Father, we thank you for the riches being released upon your people. We thank you for it being released upon our church. And we thank you that come closing day in June, we will have everything we need. Glory to God. Woo! To close. And then in 12 months after that, we will pay off $1 million. And we praise you for it now in the name of Jesus. What a mighty God we serve. Hallelujah. Oh, I believe, glory to God, because not only are your people givers, but our church is a giving church. So I thank you, God, that the church is going to receive receive good measure, yeah, pressed down, shaken together, running over, shall men give to the church in Jesus' name. We bless you, God. John 8:32. Let's get out of here, man. We're almost done. And you will know the truth, and the truth shall set you free. My God. So, Father, we thank one for the release of truth inside of this apostolic hub where people will come to full order, absolute and exact knowledge of your truth for their lives. And because our church exists, it is a place of truth and freedom, and those that receive the truth will be made free, they will be set free. And he who the Son sets free is free indeed. There won't be any bouncing back and forth in this thing, but God, we thank you for the truth true liberty and the true freedom that you are using and will continue to use Roddell Church to bring to people. Thank you that through the teaching of truth, liberty will come. Glory to God. Debt again will be removed. Oh, we're back at it. Glory to God. Because of truth, hallelujah. Credit, uh, burdens will be removed. Glory to the name of God. Credit scores will increase. God, there will be freedom. We give you glory, we give you honor, we thank you for student loans and the bondage of that. We give you praise again for the release because of truth. Thank you that in the lives of your people, wherever there is bondage, because truth exists in our church and because we will not back up off of the truth, we will speak the truth in love, we will speak the truth aggressively with authority and power, and we will lift up the truth that Jesus Christ is Lord. And because of that, whoo, freedom, hallelujah, will happen for every person that crosses the doorpost of Rodder Church. Thank you that as we expand our facility size, that the truth will cause increase and growth in our church, that people will come because of that fact that the fullness of truth exists within the walls of that peace, and we give you praise and glory for it now, in Jesus' name. And God have mercy. We bless you, God. Matthew 9:38. I'm almost done. So pray to the Lord of the Harvest to force out go out and thrust laborers, partners, into the harvest. Good God. So Father, we call for partners, yes, who will respond to your call to support this ministry prayerfully, spiritually, and financially. God, Father, I declare, yes God, Hallelujah for supernatural direction. Again, that they will be drawn to truth and power. And God, that they will see the blessing with their own eyes in connecting to what you have called us to do. And I praise you for it now. Ooh-wee, in Jesus' name. My God, I pray y'all still here. My God. Hebrews 13:21. Almost done, family. Go, Shabbat, give you glory. Hebrews 13:21 says, strengthen, complete, perfect, and make you what you ought to be, and equip you with every good thing that you may carry out his will while he himself works in you and accomplishes that which is pleasing in his sight. Through Jesus Christ the Messiah, to whom be glory forever and ever, to the ages of the ages. Amen. So be it. So he says here, strengthen you, which means complete, perfect, make you what you ought to be, equip you with every good thing. So that's what our church does. We are, we are Apostolic Hub. We are here to equip. Hallelujah. Release and revive. And as we exist to do that, the more we grow with buildings and facilities, the more we're able to carry out that purpose. Oh my God, I'm so overwhelmed right now, feeling, you know, and as we become partners with that to help others get what we're receiving, right? So that we can continue to do it, so we can do it on a larger scale. Yeah, he's working something in you simultaneously while we're doing it for others. So Father, we thank you. First of all, God, thank you for supernatural direction as the leader of Rhoda Church. That we will never miss it to the left nor to the right, and that all of the finances you give us, that we will be supernaturally wise stewards over it. And we thank you, God, in the name of Jesus, that we will complete what we have started. God, Father, I thank you that you will make each of us what we ought to be. And that you will equip us with every good thing that we can carry out your will and work in us to accomplish what is pleasing in your sight. That's what we want to do. We want to please you, God. We don't do any of this to please man or to be seen or to say we've done something great. We want to bring you glory. We want to see men transformed and lives changed. And we give you praise. We don't do it to seek attention. We do it to bring your name glory, honor, and praise. And we praise you for that now. Thank you for this time of prayer. Thank you for this day. Bless your people as they go into their day. May they not miss it to the left nor to the right. But God, I thank you that they'll be sensitive to your spirit. Order their steps, God, and cause them to, uh, to the word that we prayed. We release angels at our charge to enforce the covenant of the word, to bring to pass what we have prayed this morning according to your word. For angels hearken to the voice of thy word, and we praise you for it now in Jesus' name. Amen. Oh my God, oh my God, what a mighty God we Listen, thank you, family, for joining me for 1-hour prayer this morning. Means a lot. Listen, we're going somewhere.
