5 AM Prayer with Apostle MIKE WOODS, SR. | 4 FEBRUARY 2026

Well, praise the Lord and a pleasant good morning to everyone. This is the day the Lord has made and we shall rejoice. And be glad in it. Happy Wednesday. Uh, listen, it's a great day to be alive, as is any day, and I'm so grateful again for the opportunity to spend some time with you this morning. Uh, do me a favor, guys, as it, as it indicates on the screen, please share, comment, and like this video. It's very important because again, as we are disseminating of the things from heaven. We want to make sure as many people as possibly can connect with what we're doing. Yeah, I, I make that request all the time. One, because it should really become automatic, because we need you to do that, because if you're blessed, you know you're blessed to be a blessing. But secondly, a lot of y'all don't do it, so I keep saying it because a lot of y'all don't do it. But at the end of the day, If something's blessing you and you're receiving, the awesome thing to do would be to make sure someone else is getting it as well. So do me a favor, please share. And it lets you know just how these things work. The science of the algorithm works when people are engaged, when people share. I appreciate the comments that you guys put in the comments while we're praying, when we're teaching. Uh, that's great, that's excellent. Uh, but make sure you're hitting like on the video, whether you're on YouTube Uh, Facebook, 3 different pages, or Instagram. We're streaming on 5 platforms this morning, so please, wherever you're tapping in, share this. And listen, I love y'all, man. Y'all are a great group of people. Uh, it's Wednesday. Uh, we are working toward the halfway mark on our fast, and I don't know about you, man, uh, but this has been a tremendous fast for me, and I'm super joyfully-yam, elated, man, to see it working for you and to see the manifestations of what this fast will bring. And I often say, man, fasting without praying, you know, it's just really hunger. So I'm grateful that you are not just starving yourself to death, uh, for no reason, but you are actually receiving something this week. You're eating the word, We're praying together, and listen, we're going to see, uh, great results from this. Glory to God. Well, let's just jump into it this morning, man. I'm excited to, uh, to share. Praise God. And I'm excited to be able to, uh, drop what God has given me for us this morning in prayer. This morning we're going to pray about fruit joyfulness. And for those of you that are coming in, again, hit the like button, hit the share button. Glory to the name of God. And please comment below, let us know that you are here. I know it's early in the morning. You said, boss, I just got up, I really ain't got time for all that, I'm barely here. But listen, I promise you, uh, if you just bless someone else, make that sacrifice, it'll be a blessing to you. Amen. All right, let— again, this morning we are praying about fruitfulness. And, um, we've been teaching on dominion, man, and we understand that really true freedom is connected to dominion. And we, we've come to understand that you really can never achieve dominion, and you never are going to have progress actually toward dominion. You really is going to be going through cycles cycles of unfruitfulness. And because even if something appears fruitful, if it's not lending itself to dominion, it's still really unfruitful because dominion is operating in that space of God's purpose and plan for your life where you're actually dominating that fear of influence. And I told y'all before, man, I really am not interested in raising up a generation of dancers, but dominators. Glory to the name of God. That's the goal. Dancing is okay. Hallelujah. Worship is okay. Good church is okay. But at the end of the day, I said it yesterday, it ought to be illegal. If we have all of that good church, we sing, we prophesy, we pray for the sick, we cast out devils, we go through praise and worship, we experience great encounters with God, we cry, Are y'all hearing me? Glory to God. But that doesn't culminate. Listen, it doesn't culminate with us leaving the building and going and conquer something. See, we can get so caught up in the hoopla, what's happening inside of a place, or what a person is saying when they're speaking or preaching. The reality is all of that good stuff you receive should culminate with an action. You hear, watch this, and I'm setting up where we're going this morning. You hear to build your faith, right? Because faith come by hearing and hearing by the word of God, correct? Now, if that be the case, ladies and gentlemen, your faith is cultivated, glory to God, so you could take action. Faith without works is dead being alone. Yes ma'am, yes sir. It is dead being alone. Glory to the name of God. So you can hear all of this stuff and get all of this revelation. I mean, it could be good teaching, but it doesn't help you if you don't apply it. Information, revelation without application is constipation. Okay, we're gonna leave that right there. All right, so you gotta apply what you hear. You got to do this thing. And that's what fruitfulness is about. It's about taking action, because you cannot be fruitful without seed. And I've been teaching that there's a seedbed of dominion purpose and destiny and dominion potential, woo-wee, inside of all of us. Glory to God. Ah, shabat lekesiantotoboshia. It's inside of all of us. Just rub your belly this morning. Glory to God. And say, it's inside of all of us. Praise God. Hallelujah. Just rub your belly and say, dominion is in me. And I am a dominator. Say, I was created to be fruitful in the name of Jesus. All right, so, and, and this is, it's just the truth, man. You were created to be fruitful. You were created to dominate, uh, not just dance. All right, again, nothing wrong with dance. I'm a classical Pentecostal by nature. I've done a lot of dancing in church in my life. Glory to God. And I'm gonna probably do some more, I'm sure. Glory to God. And I'm gonna do some worship, and I'm gonna fall on the floor and bow down before God. Those things are important. I don't want you to dismiss that, but there has to be a healthy balance again of culminating toward action that leads to fruitfulness. Because now let's go, we're about to get started with prayer. Genesis 1:28 is our first scripture, and I'm just going to read the first phrase in the text. You know the text. I'll read the first phrase and drop down to the last phrase. He says, be fruitful. Hallelujah. And have dominion over everything on earth. Now, and I'm doing that only because we're praying, because all of those elements is the DNA of dominion. But we're praying today about fruitfulness because we've taught about it, we've heard it, and but we got to really pray through into it. Okay, so he says, be fruitful. Again, that tends to action. He didn't give them apples, oranges, grapefruit, pears, plums. Hallelujah. He gave them herb-bearing seed, fruit-bearing seed. Watch this. He even put seed inside of humans so that we could reproduce and bear fruit. Oh my God. His whole plan was for us to be fruitful, to bring forth a harvest, to parah, or pabal in Hebrew, to bring forth abundance, to bring forth a harvest so that we could populate the world with his glory, with his authority, and really operate in dominion. So let's pray right here, hallelujah, as we go into this this morning about actually being fruitful. Glory to the name of God. Let's— so let's jump into it. Glory to God. We give you praise, God. We give you glory, Father, this this morning, we honor your name and we thank you that beside you there is no other. It's in you we live and move and have our being. And Father, I, I just want to pause to thank you for an opportunity to be fruitful. Thank you that you thought enough of us to put not only seed to produce other humans inside of us after our kind, but God, you put potential and purpose and dominion in us so that we can also reproduce and multiply after our kind. Mm. So Father, I'm praying for every person under the sound of my voice, and I decree and declare that they will no longer be stalemate. Mm. That they'll no longer be stuck, that they'll no longer have cycles. I command every cycle to be broken that looks the same, every wilderness cycle. That, that everything looks the same, feels the same, and no matter what they do or what we do in certain areas, God, we end up in the same place. But God, I thank you this morning that because of fruitfulness and the spirit of fruitfulness, we're getting ready to enter into new cycles. Yeah, new cycles in our finances, new cycles in our marriages, new cycles in our family life, new cycles in our faith and our spirituality, new cycles in our careers, in our profession. Thank you for new cycles. We break every old cycle. And God, we put a demand on the seed that's in us, the dominion purpose-driven seed that's down in our belly. And Father, we thank you for clarity of that seed. God, we thank you that there'll be no guesswork. Oh, oh. Habashikunde setebaye. Yeke skoto radne de bonshia. Oh God, no guesswork. No guesswork. Just because, ooh, even because we're good at something doesn't necessarily mean that's your purpose. Ooh, God. God, so we thank you for real clarity from you as to what the seedbed is, where we are to be sowing, and we give you praise and glory for that now in Jesus' name. Amen and amen. Somebody thank God. Come on. Give God praise this morning. We bless him. Oh, come on, just lift him up and honor his name. Glory to God. I'm telling you, God is gonna raise up a fruitful generation through you because you are to be fruitful and multiply. So you gonna, he gave you fruit so you could reproduce after your kind. I need you to praise God because you're gonna begin to produce, oh my God, people who are connected to the fruit in your life. People who have like passion, like DNA, not the same, but authentic in their own right. But you will carry something that will pull them forth. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. It's shoo. Glory to God. I command every old cycle to be broken. And I release in the name of Jesus, glory to God, new cycles of fruitfulness. Glory to God. New cycles of increase. Glory to the name of God. New cycles of authority and power. Glory to God, hallelujah, that you will not keep going through the same cycle, but you will tap into this new dimension of more. And we, uh, glory, and we give you glory for it now, Father. Yeah, in the mighty name of Jesus. Glory to God, hallelujah. I feel all right this morning. Listen, I'm telling you, the burden is being removed, the yoke is being destroyed. Glory to the name of God. And you're about to soar into a new dimension of authority and fruitfulness. And glory to God. Watch this. Remember, remember we taught that fruitfulness starts with your gifts and talents producing service. So once you realize the seedbed where God has gifted you and given you talent and anointing, it produces service, right? That service Creates an atmosphere, man. And what happens is it creates a credibility through that atmosphere. Oh God. And yeah, Jesus. And what you gotta do is find out clearly, and this is what we're gonna pray through this morning. So you'll leave this time of prayer with some clarity, man, about the seedbed that's in you and what you're supposed to be sowing into the world. We cannot reap a harvest in a field where we have not sown. Uh, there are educators that are listening to this live or by replay. There are lawyers, doctors, scientists, politicians, media people. Are y'all hearing me? Glory to God. There are leaders in the church. There are entrepreneurs and economic leaders, military leaders under the sound of my voice. Live or by replay. Listen, we gotta sow seed in those fields, in those kingdoms, so we can reap a harvest in those fields, so we could take over in the realm of entrepreneurship. We need kingdom billionaires, glory to God, so that we can finance the dominion purposes that are in everybody. Glory to the name of God. So we need billionaires to come forth. We need kingdom educators so we can create school systems. We need Kingdom politicians so that we could fill the governmental system with Kingdom minds and Kingdom people who are filled with the Spirit of God. Are y'all getting it? So, all right, so let's go. Glory to God. To our first scripture. Glory to the name of God. Uh, John 15 and 16, you'll find this intelligence. The Bible says, you have not chosen me. This is Jesus talking. He said, you didn't choose me. He said, but I have chosen you and ordained you that you should go— here we go— and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain. Watch this. And that whatsoever you ask in my name of the Father he may give it to you. It is so important to realize that, one, we have butchered this particular verse. Preachers in particular have butchered this verse and not looked at the pure essence of what this verse is saying. This verse goes back to Genesis 1:28, and he's reminding us First of all, we didn't choose him. So for those of you that thought you found God, well, I found Jesus in '74. No, you didn't. Before the foundation of the world, he chose you. Watch this. Matter of fact, he's so loving and so kind and so powerful. Glory to God. While you were yet a sinner, he chose you. Knowing everything about you, he still chose you. Because the king, watch this, chooses his citizens. So in a kingdom, in a basilia, the king's domain, he chooses the citizens because he chooses citizens who will be responsible for taking their place in the kingdom, hear me, and helping create a commonwealth in the kingdom so that everything in the kingdom is provided for. So you didn't choose him. That's something to rejoice about. He chose you. Oh my God, he chose me. Glory to the name of God. He chose us. Glory to God. Hallelujah. And so here's the other piece. You didn't choose God, he chose you. Watch this. This is why he chose you, so you could go and bring forth fruit so that now the seedbed in you can become fruitful. Back to Genesis 1:28. Hallelujah. And that fruit should remain. It remains because multiplication is happening. It remains because dominion is occurring, because you are being fruitful. Are y'all hearing me? Glory to God. So Your lot in life is not, again, not to have good church only. Your lot in life is to do the thing that the King has chose you to do, is to do the thing, glory to God, the fruitful thing. Shabat dekosi ata. I feel Jesus, man. Glory to God. That you're on earth to do. He said, you go and bring forth fruit, that your fruit may remain. And here's the catch. This is where we missed it. Then, okay, that or then, whatsoever you ask in my Father's name, he'll do it. So we'll take whatever we ask in the name and do it and wonder why when we ask, why he not doing it? Oh boy. Oh boy. Because God is not in the business of blessing unfruitfulness. Ah, he's in the building's business of blessing the fruit that he chose you to bear. He's not really interested in helping you fund something. Are y'all hearing this? Or undergird something. It ain't his will. Ah, that's not connected to culminating with dominion. Oh my God, what he— oh boy, is that too much for 5 AM? Okay, yeah, well, I want— but again, people have butchered this, right? I mean, and it's right there, that or then whatsoever you ask. So that is the result of an occurrence. So you did something to get his attention, you did something to release his hand. That doesn't say you're not saved. It doesn't say even that you might not go to heaven. The reality is he's saying, I want you to have heaven on earth, but heaven on earth comes through your alignment and your production with fruit, not you had a good service and fell in the floor. People say, oh my God, we had heaven on earth, God showed up. No, really, real heaven on earth is when the saints, when the kingdom citizens be— look like kingdom people in the earth, and we're taking our place of dominion. Let's pray this. Glory to God. Let's pray. So Father, in Jesus' name, God, we thank you today that you chose us. You didn't have to, but you did. We didn't choose you. You— oh my God, you chose us, God. And you chose us that we should go forth and bring forth fruit. So Father, I pray for every person under the sound of my voice, and I just speak to the embryo in their spirit. And I decree and declare that we are fruitful people from this day forward. No longer will we give birth to fruit that is not of you. No longer will we give birth to fruit that we were not elected, selected, protected to produce. You chose us. Oh my God, thank you for choosing us, God. You know everything about us and you chose us so we can go forth and bring forth fruit and that that fruit fruit should remain. So we'll multiply and we'll continue to be fruitful. We'll teach others to be fruitful. God, we understand the model even in this very chapter in John 15 that we read, that you reproduced yourself in others. God, you reproduce yourself in the 12, and then you said to them, these things I have done, greater, greater, more fruit they would bear because you went to the Father. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, help us to multiply and reproduce ourselves and grab hold to the multiplicity of kingdom life and begin to produce others. Whoo, God, who connect to our purpose, who connect to our vision. Father, I thank you for that now, who will leave— hamagandi kasiku rabanga— from our presence and go into the world and be fruitful. And Father, I thank you when we're fruitful whatever we ask of you, you'll do. Hallelujah! What a faith to know that when we ask according to your word, out of fruitfulness, out of sowing the seedbed that you put in us, God, you would do for us. Hallelujah! What we ask. Glory to God. Glory. Shamaan dekoshia. God, I give you glory. I give you glory, God. Galatians 2:20. Let's, let's go. Let's keep going. That was just our second verse. Let's keep going. Glory to God. And We're already 27 minutes in. Glory to God. So, so let's go. Uh, Galatians 2:20. The Bible says this, it says, I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live, but Christ liveth in me. And the life which I now live in the flesh, I live by the faith of the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me. Me. This is so important. Um, there's another passage of scripture, and, and let me, let me just read that now. Glory to God. Uh, in Matthew 13:23, there's another scripture. Yeah. Um, I think I'm gonna read 22. Watch this. He said, he, he also that receiveth seed among the thorns is he that hear the word but the care of the world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. So watch this, if you're not good ground, here it is, you become unfruitful. You can't bear fruit because you're not allowing the word to take fruit— root in your good ground. Because watch this, you desire the fruit that lends itself toward dominion. Now here's verse 23, he said, but he that receiveth seed seed into good ground is he that heareth the word and understands it, which also bears fruit and bringeth forth some 100, some 60, and some 30. Now watch this. We understand then that the scripture also says that a seed— hallelujah. Matter of fact, let's just read it. John 12:24. So we done knocked out 3 scriptures at one right here because they all relate. He says, verily, verily, I say unto you— John 12:24— verily, verily, or Seriously, seriously, I say unto you, except a corn of wheat fall to the ground and die, it abideth alone. But if it die, it brings forth more fruit. Now here we go, going back to Galatians 2:20. I'm crucified with Christ. Glory to God. So I gotta die. I'm the seed that I gotta sow in the world, right? So the seed can't bring forth fruit unless I die. My dreams have to die. Your dreams have to die. The things that you conjure up on on your own literally have to be put to death because there is a perfect purpose, a perfect assignment, a perfect plan that God already has for your life. So you have to be crucified with him so that you can be resurrected and bring forth more fruit. Glory to God. And watch this, you do that through what we read in Matthew 13:23. You hear the word, word, and it becomes good ground because of your ability to receive the word in faith. Glory to God. And connect with what God is saying and your desire— watch this— to not just be a hearer only, but to be a doer and to go and bear fruit. Ah, God. So you are seedbed, man. Glory to God. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. So let's pray this. Say this with me. Say, in the name of Jesus. Say, I agree with the word. Glory to God. Say it. Say, I agree with the word. Say, a seed cannot bear fruit. Say it out of your mouth. Glory to God. Unless it falls to the ground and dies. Say, I confess and decree that I am crucified with Christ. Come on, declare it. Declare it. Because again, you have what you say. Say, I confess and decree that I am crucified with Christ. Watch this. Nevertheless, I live. Glory to God. Yet not I, we're just praying the scripture, but Christ that lives in me. Whew, glory. So the life that we live, God, say it, say the life we live, God, we live it in you. Glory to God. Hallelujah. Saying I live by faith. In the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me. Say this, say, in the name of Jesus, I am good ground and I can be trusted to be fruitful. Say, I can be trusted to have dominion. Come on, would you give God praise for that right now? Hallelujah, in the name of Jesus. Glory to God, hallelujah. Because you got to know that you crucified him and you got to keep yourself on that cross. And every time your flesh tries to raise up and take you into realms and dimensions that you don't belong in, you gotta, you gotta pull that thing down, man, and you gotta crucify it and kill it and, and make sure it stays dead. Glory to God. And keep the doors closed so the enemy cannot come in in those areas in your life so that you can constantly bear fruit. Root. Glory to God. And you, and you live this life of faith, not doing it yourself. Because watch this, many a time when you start getting a revelation of the seed that's in you, it's gonna appear so much bigger than you, right? And you're gonna have to know, praise God, my God, today, that you're with God and that you're able to fulfill what he's showing you through him. Good God from Zion, Lord, we love you. Oh, Shabbat, we praise your name, God, and we bless you. Come on, give him glory. All right, so let's go to Philippians 1:11. Ah, glory to God! I feel Jesus this morning. I feel breakthrough. I, I release fruitfulness. I, I release the blessing of fruitfulness. You know, he— oh God, watch this. Notice that, notice says before he said to them, be fruitful, the Bible says the Lord blessed them and said, be fruitful. Guess what? You're not doing this alone. Glory to God. You have God with you. You have God's help. Glory to God. Philippians 1:11, the Bible says, being filled— watch this— with the fruits of righteousness which are by Christ Jesus unto the glory and praise of God. Watch this, are y'all ready? The fruit of righteousness. Righteousness in this text is a Greek word, diasune. Diasune means accuracy, or literally to do what is right. Watch this, to be aligned accurately with what is right, to not miss it to the left, to not miss it to the right, to not miss it to the front, to not miss it to the back, but to be on point and aligned with God. Hallelujah. Doing the right thing in life every single day. So you want the fruit of accuracy. You don't wanna miss. So this is why we pray, man. This is why we fast. This is why we study. This is really why, watch this, we assemble in church so we can learn what we ought to be doing. Glory to God. And because you don't need to be in a space where all the leader is doing is hollering at you or teaching you something in error, because you could be in a church where they teaching it in error too. Glory to God. You need to be learning the truth about, about what's right and how to adequately sow the seed of your life into the world so you hallelujah, be fruitful. Glory to God. So when you're doing your dominion purpose, when you're operating in destiny, you can produce the fruit of righteousness. Somebody say, Apostle, this too much for 5 o'clock in the morning. Listen, I'm trying to give you soul food, man. This your breakfast. We're eating. Glory to God. Because you can't eat the 6 o'clock, right? Yeah. So I'm Eat this, please, please. Because at the end of the day, man, glory to God. Whoo! When you're bearing the fruit of righteousness, notice what the text said. He says it gives glory and praise to God. And these fruits are by Jesus Christ, which suggests he's the architect of the fruit. He's designed the accuracy Your dominion purpose, hear this, and then we're gonna pray, is not your decision, it's your discovery. It's already been designed, it's already been decided. You have to discover it. Let's pray about that right here. So Father, we thank you for the fruit of righteousness. And Father, I believe it is all of our desire God, we're up together touching and agreeing here at 5:00 AM. And we didn't get up, God, because we didn't, we don't believe. We didn't get up because we don't want something more. God, we want more. We wanna see the fruit of righteousness manifest in our life, God. And so Father, in the name of Jesus, I declare this morning that the fruit of accuracy would superimpose itself upon all of us and will be found doing and aligned aligned exactly with what you have ordained for us. Oh glory. And that our life, God, will bring glory and praise to you because of the fruit of righteousness that comes out of it. And I declare it to be so even now in the mighty name of Jesus. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Somebody ought to bless the Lord. Glory to God. Hallelujah. For the fruit of righteousness, uh, that is coming out of your life. We give you praise, we give you glory, we honor your name. God's so good, man. Glory to God. Somebody ought to just rejoice right there. Glory to God. Go to Philippians 4:17. I don't know about you, but I love Jesus, man. Glory to God. Philippians 4:17, the Bible says this. Y'all, are y'all with me? Glory to the name of God, Jesus. Wake up and get it, man. Wake up and eat. Glory to God. It's time to eat, man. Get— let's get this. Let's tap into this dimension of fruitfulness where daily we are accurately bringing forth the right things. You just think about your life. How many times, glory to God, in your life have you just took a day and just lived haphazardly. You really wasn't concerned whether you were doing the right thing, whether it was accurate or not. And I'm not even just talking about you in your behavior, because the church— glory to the name of God, hallelujah, glory to God. I see you, Dr. Payne, I love you, woman of God. Glory to God, uh, glory to God. Listen, The church, man, has been so dogmatic about behavior. And right, and, and listen, you should live holy. Don't get it twisted. Holiness is right, and you ought to live as unto the Lord. That's part of the fruit of righteousness, but it's not the extent of the fruit of righteousness. Because the church was so dogmatic— live right, don't have sex, don't lie, don't cheat, don't drink, don't smoke— all those, that list they were throwing at to keep us in right behavior, not ever really teaching us what it really meant to bring forth purpose and destiny and dominion. So how many times in your life have you just not really concentrated on operating in the system of God and doing what's right in your life? I'm gonna let that sit there and marinate, right? Okay, so let's read Philippians 4:17. Hallelujah! Philippians 4:17. Glory to the name of God. Here we go. Hallelujah. Thank you, Jesus. The Bible says, not because I desire a gift, but I desire fruit. Oh my God, that— oh, Shabbat, that may abound to your account. Now shift here, man, because again, you cannot believe that you can have dominion in your area of purpose and be fruitful. Fruit abounding to your account. And here is the kind of fruit bearing we don't really like to talk about in church, because the two things in church people don't want to talk about: sex and money. But the problem I have with that, people have a whole lot of sex and they end up having babies, which is fruit. And they want to have a lot of sex. And there are people who want money, but they don't want to discuss it. But Paul deliberately is talking about money right here in Philippians 4. He said, and when he's talking about account to your savings, to your interest, to your profit, he says, now I'm not asking you to give to me. This is what he's telling them, because I need something. He's saying to them, I want you to give because you need fruit to abound to your account. So watch this. While every time we hear the word seed, we panic because we think somebody's about to ask us for money. But again, I just, I've been teaching you that the seedbed is so much more than money. But I want you to realize if you want to bring forth the fruit of money, you have to sow the seed of money. Money. Okay, and watch this. Let me just take a quick moment to share with you what that looks like when you're negotiating and legislating and operating in the exchange system between heaven and earth. Because, because watch this, every time you give, you're now participating in the economic system of the kingdom. And God is not just causing you to give give without a return. He wants you to have profit. He wants it to abound to your account. But if you're not exchanging, then nothing is going to come back to you. Some people think they can sit there and just not give to God and expect God just to open the sky and overwhelm them. But it doesn't work. You, you listen, you have to operate in the principle of exchange. That's how fruit comes in every area, and you're going to need the fruit to abound to your account monetarily so you can fulfill your purpose, so you can help others. Oh God, wow, man, wow. So he says, so when you hear your leader, myself, or if you're not connected to this church or you got another leader that's— or you're in a service where someone is appealing to you to give, you ought to get happy because it's an opportunity for fruit to abound to your account. Now I'm gonna say this, and then we're gonna pray about this. Your harvest that abounds your account is always proportionate to the seed. Just like if you sow an apple seed, there's a portion of apples that are going to come out of that one seed. You saw a watermelon seed, there's a portion of watermelons, about 300, that's going to come out of that one seed. Bam! Big harvest. Watch this, every watermelon is jam-packed with at least 100 seeds to sow again. Uh, that— yeah, y'all do the math on that because you— that's another message for another day. Because the harvest makes sure that you always have the opportunity to be fruitful by sowing again. So you can look at this monetarily. You can also look at it through your purpose and your destiny, or sowing that into the world. It all takes sacrifice because it means you got to break away from something else that's holding you down. Lord, I'm doing too much teaching. Let's pray. Father, we give you praise and we give you glory. We thank for, oh my God, Philippians 4:17. We thank you that as we give, we receive the fruit that abounds to our account. And I declare that every person under the sound of my voice has the spirit of a sower, God, that not only will they sow themselves, but they'll sow their resources, understanding that the harvest is proportionate to the seed. And I decree and declare that they will be profitable, that they will give at levels and dimensions that will produce profitable harvest, God, that will multiply right before their eyes. My God. Hallelujah. We give you glory. We give you honor for fruit that abounds to our account so we could be fruitful in the world and fulfill our dominion purpose and never lack anything we need to fulfill that purpose. We declare it now in the name of Jesus. I dare you touch your belly and say, I am fruitful. I'm fruitful in the name of Jesus. Come on, touch your belly and say it. I'm fruitful in the name of Jesus. Glory to God. Hallelujah. We give you praise. Mm. Y'all wake up, receive it, man. I'm telling you, receive it. This stuff, uh, is so necessary. We, we coming quickly to a close, believe it or not. Uh, Psalms 1 and 3. Glory to the name of God. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. And we pray like this because we pray word. You know, 1 John 2:14 says if we ask anything according to his will— his will is his word— he'll do it. So that's why we read the word and pray it, man. We're just doing what the Bible say. Glory to the name of God. So we ask according to his will, he do it. So we're asking for fruitfulness this morning, and we're asking through directly through the word that we're reading. And the Bible also says that angels hearken to the voice of thy word. So we read the word, pray it, because every time we pray the word, the angel hearkens to that word and goes to work to bring it to pass. Matter of fact, right now, in Jesus' name, I release angels that are charged to your people and myself— glory to the name of God— to hearken to the voice of the word we're praying this morning and to go and bring the word to pass, a fruitfulness in our life. Even now we receive it, God. Hallelujah. In the mighty name of Jesus, we give you glory. Woo! God is so good. God is so good. Woo! Psalm 1:3. Psalm 1:3. Glory to God. Hallelujah. And he shall be like a tree— wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute— planted by the rivers of water that brings forth fruit in his season. Watered, his leaf shall not wither, and whatsoever he does will prosper. That's Psalm 1:3. Glory to God. He said, why, wait a minute, you're gonna be— so I've been telling you throughout these teachings, you got to plant yourself in the world. Whoo! We can't reap a harvest where we have not sown. So, woo-wee. So when you get rooted in the word, 'cause yeah, the first two verses, and I'm not gonna get into it, talk about meditating on the word both day and night, and not standing in the way of sinners and transgressors, but meditating in the law of God, the kingdom law of God, the word of God, both day and night. He said, then you shall be like a tree planted. So it takes the word. Word to be the force to plant you into the world. And watch this, the Bible says you're going to bring forth fruit in season. So when you're supposed to manifest the fruit, it's going to come forth, never delay. You're never going to have bad crops because you stay in the word, because the word keeps building your faith. Oh my God, I can't teach it, but we're gonna pray it, right? Yeah, he says, watch this, and your leaf shall never wither. That's powerful. So that means even after the season leaves, that you bear fruit. Because in the natural, if there's a harvest, when the season changes, the leaves wither and there has to be a replanting. But God says here, I'm gonna perpetually cause you to bear fruit in season and out of season. Oh God. And whatever you do will prosper because— oh my God— because you have planted yourself in the world and you're operating in purpose and dominion, and you're sowing your potential. You're not just sitting on who you are, you're giving it back and you're sowing it. Glory to Jesus, man. Lord, we you, Lord. We adore you. Let's pray it. Father, we give you praise. Glo shabaya. We give you glory. We thank you, dear God. We thank you for your goodness, your mercy, your grace, your kindness. And we thank you, Lord, that as we meditate on the word day and night, as we stand not in the way of sinners and transgressors, but we delight in the law of the Lord, we delight in the word of God, we delight in what you say, we delight in the prophetic utterance over our life. We delight in what you spoke to us in Jeremiah 1:5, how you have known us and ordained us and sanctified us. Father, we thank you for that. And Father, as we thank you, God, I pray for the boldness of every person under the sound of my voice to sow themselves into the world. Yes, God, to sow themselves into the world, that they could be like a tree that's planted by water, and that no matter what storm comes— yeah, Hallelujah. No matter what wind blows, they'll never be moved, God. And I give you praise for it. And I thank you that our leaves shall never wither. Glory to the name of God. That we will be fruitful in season and out of season, perpetual fruit. I declare it in the name of Jesus in the lives of your people, because we are boldly planting ourselves in the world to be the people of dominion you've called us to be. And we'll never be moved. And whatsoever we do, oh my God, God. Oh God, help us to see that and to visualize that whatever we put our hands to do, when we are properly planted, will prosper. So I bind up failure. I bind up— oh my God, no more failures in our life. No more false starts where we start a thing and it doesn't quite make it. Hmm. I bind that up in the name of Jesus. I release the spirit of a finisher finisher. Oh my God. Oh, upon every person under the sound of my voice, that everything they put their hands to, whether they're starting a class, whether they're in school trying to get an education, whether they started a business, I release the spirit of a finisher upon them now in the name of Jesus. And I declare, glo shabbat, that whatever they do will prosper in Jesus' name. Glory be to God. My God, today, my God, today. Almost done, saints, almost done. Uh, Galatians 5, glory to God, uh, verses 22, 23, and 24. You know these very well. You probably been to a program growing up in church and they called it the Fruit of the Spirit and they had 9 speakers Fruits. Everybody spoke on the fruit. Glory to God. Well, it is God's desire that we manifest these fruits in our life. As a matter of fact, fulfillment of dominion purpose requires that these fruit be present in your life. I'm not going to break them down because I don't have time. I got 8 minutes. Glory to God, we're almost done. Praise God. But we're going to read it and pray it. Praise God. The Bible said, but the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, faith, meekness, temperance. Against such there is no law. And they that are Christ's— hear me, glory to God— have crucified— good God— the flesh with the affections and lusts love. Okay, so if I want to bear fruit, let's do it backwards. From verse 24, it's important that the seed fall to the ground and die. There it is again, crucify the flesh so you can bring forth the fruit of the Spirit. And listen, you ought to be bearing these fruits so easily, you and I both, that people can just walk up to us and pick these fruits off of us, pick love off of us, pick pick joy off of us, pick faith off of us. Glory to God. Pick long-suffering off of us. Ah God, see, when you can bear these fruits easily, it becomes easier to go to that next level and bear the fruit of dominion purpose. Quite hard to bear the fruit of dominion purpose that comes from your King that he's decreed over your life when you can't really love. You ain't never got no joy. Joyfully-yam, that's a problem. You're not going to manifest it. So let's pray for the fruit of the Spirit in our lives, man. Glory to God. So Father, in the name of Jesus, I decree and declare that in our lives, love, joy, peace, faith, long-suffering, meekness, temperance— glory to the name of God. We thank you today. Hallelujah. Kindness, gentleness. We thank you that these 9 fruit, hallelujah, are operating consistently and constantly in our life. We declare, God, that at all times we'll walk out these fruit and they'll be visible, they'll be seen. Glory to the name of God. In our connection and in how we show up in the world, the fruit of the Spirit that we've read in Galatians 5:22-24, God, we decree and declare, because we crucify our flesh and we crucify the desires of our flesh and the works of the flesh that desire to rob us of the fruit, but we plant ourselves, hallelujah, hallelujah, in you so that these fruit can emerge and come forth in our life. And I decree in the name of Jesus that these 9 fruit, hallelujah, these 9 manifestations of the Spirit of God will come forth in our life. May we not be a people that speak in tongues but have no temperance, that, that worship and cry but have no love, that prophesy, oh my God, and have no faith. Father, in Jesus' name, may the fruit of the Spirit operate fully in our lives, and we give you praise and glory for it out, my God, this morning, in Jesus' name. Again, we're not just here to have good church and— oh, I say that, God— you could prophesy, hallelujah, and have the tongues of men and of angels, but the Apostle Paul said to the Corinthians and to us, if you have not love, it profits you nothing. Glory to the name of God. It's a sounding brass and a tinkling cymbal. It's just a bunch of noise. Let's not be noisemakers with no fruit. Let's be fruitful kingdom citizens that see breakthrough and deliverance not just in the lives of others others, but in our own lives as well. All right, God have mercy. I'm out of here, man. Almost done. Last scripture of Colossians 1:9-10. Oh God, I pray you're being blessed this morning. Praise God. The Bible said, for this cause also, since the day we heard it— hear me— we do not cease to pray you and desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. So you need some— the apostle is saying to the Colossians here, listen, we have not stopped praying for you since the day we heard of your dilemma, of where you are in life. You need intercessors, and particularly apostolic intercessors, or an apostolic leader. Hear me, that will pray for this. See, y'all hear me say this and y'all don't understand where I'll be coming from. This is a good place to say it. Prophets prophesy, apostles bring the word to pass because they pray through to the strategy. So you get a word, now you need a real apostle an apostle, not just to over-spiritualize you, but you need an apostle, an authentic apostle. I can't wait till my book come out. Um, I gotta finish the contract, my publisher, so we can get this thing out this year, man. But the gift of apostleship is going to be a blessing because authentic apostles not only operate in power, the government on their life helps to bring to pass. Because the moment they hear a thing, they hear prophecy, they don't stop praying until they see it come to pass. Many of you connected to me, I've watched prophets prophesy to you. I've, I've seen the word of the Lord come out of me to you. You know, I immediately started doing praying for the strategy and praying for you so that those words can come to pass in your life. Because what sense do it make if you get a word and you don't know how to bring it to pass? So the apostle is available and in the earth to help bring that to pass. Okay. Ooh-wee. I gotta go, man, 'cause, all right. Verse 10, he says, I haven't stopped praying for you so that you can be filled with the knowledge. Again, the way to get it done, the wisdom and the spiritual understanding of your dominion purpose, of the prophetic utterances over your life, right? This is the Apostle Paul talking. Talking. He says that you might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing. Ah, here we go. So that's what we want. We want to walk worthy of the Lord and please him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge— man, I'm closing my Bible— of God. And we gonna pray this and get out of here, man. God says, listen, you need intercessors praying with you so that your life can be pleasing to him in every good work, and that your life brings glory and honor to his name. There's a good work in you, man. There's a good work upon your life that you ain't even seen yet. There are things about you that you don't even know yet. God never puts our future in front of us. That's my time, man, but we gonna get out of here, bro. He never puts our future in front of us or behind us. Watch this. He puts our future inside of us. Yeah, it's in you. Jeremiah 1:5 again. The future is already in you. Before I formed you, I knew you. So he already manufactured you with your future inside. So the greatest things you accomplish, the greatest works in the kingdom you accomplish, the things you'll they're not behind you, they're not in front of you, they're in you. So you gotta watch this. That's why the Bible said the kingdom of God is within you. So every time you worship, use your worship wisely. Every time you pray, go into the kingdom and get a glimpse and walk through your future. And you need people in your life praying that that future manifests and come forth in your life. Let's pray. Father, we give you praise. We thank you for Colossians 1, and we thank you for apostolic leadership. We thank you for intercessors. We thank you for the good work that's in us. And Father, as Paul said to Timothy, I put you in remembrance of the gift that is in you by the laying on of hands, that you stir up the gift, that you turn on the gift. So Father, this morning I pray that the gifts, the talents, the anointing giftings that you put in your people, they be turned on, they be stirred this morning, that they come alive. And God, that they will have breakthrough and increase and prosperity and victory and dominion in every good work you've assigned to their hands. And I thank you that no weapon formed against the work in their life will be able to prosper. And I thank you that there is a generation of dominators under the sound of my voice that will dominate whatever they put their hands to. And we give you praise and glory for it now, in Jesus' name. Amen. Oh my God, I love y'all this morning, man. Y'all are so, so good. Glory to the name of God. God is a good God. Hallelujah. He's a mighty God. Let's take authority. And let's be the people that God has called us to be. I leave you with this: be fruitful. Glory to the name of God. Be fruitful. Glory to God. I love y'all. Y'all be blessed. I'm gonna see y'all at 12 noon. I'm gonna let y'all go, uh, this morning. Glory to the name of God. But thank you so much. Thank you so much, uh, for being here and making a sacrifice to pray with us, to fast with us. There's great results going to come out of this fast. We're teaching again today at 12 noon. Make sure you jump on, share it with somebody. Take your lunchtime, get that word. That's our lunch, right? We can't eat to 6. And some of y'all need to stay off social media, right? Except to get this. Stop scrolling, stop posting, stop liking stuff. Lock yourself out of it. We're fasting, okay? All right, I love y'all. Y'all be blessed. Have a great day. Listen, the ways to give are at the bottom of the screen if you desire to do so. No pressure. We love you with the love of the Lord. Ain't nothing— I mean, absolutely nothing— you could do about it. Y'all be blessed. Peace.
