5 AM Prayer with Dr. Mike Woods | 7 Days of Fasting + Prayer | 7 February 26

Well, a pleasant good morning everyone. This is the day the Lord has made. Happy Saturday, man. Listen, and like that we are at day 6 of our 7 days of fasting and prayer. So thank you for being here this morning, uh, wherever you're joining us from. We're streaming this morning over 3 Facebook pages and on YouTube. I'm going to ask you to do us the kind favor and share. Glory to the name of God. Uh, God is so good, he's so kind, he's so wonderful, and he's been good to us all week long. And, um, guess what? Also, this will be, uh, the last opportunity that we'll connect online for this week, uh, after this morning session. Uh, I'll look forward to seeing you guys tomorrow at 10 AM at Roddell Church as we conclude our fast. And have an awesome worship experience. Even if, glory to God, you're not a member, we're out of church, we're expecting you guys to join us as we celebrate, glory to God, going into this next wave of dominion for our life, actually beginning to live out who God has called us to be. So we're excited, and I'm not going to hold you long this morning. I'm going— we're going to pray, uh, this morning, uh, we're going to pray about something that I believe is a great hindrance to the manifestation of dominion in our lives. Amen. Uh, and I just, you know, I want us to really grab this and, um, do what we got to do. Praise God. And I'm gonna kind of disseminate some things concerning this, and we're going to pray through them as we always do. But guys, please, as you're coming in, do share. But I want to pray about being free from worry, because worry, fear, uh, anxiety, doubt, uh, this— these things are a great hindrance to the manifestation of not just dominion, but they are hindrance to the manifestation of any promise of God. If you're praying for something and then after you pray about it, you start worrying, or you allow your mind to drift into this space of, of anxiety about the situation, then you got to realize If— here we go— faith and fear, or faith and worry, faith and anxiety, faith and doubt, they are inept to each other. They cannot stay in the same space. So these, these entities can't even share the same room, and you cannot manifest anything because without faith it is impossible to please God, right? So We cannot walk in doubt and fear, and we gotta trust God that he has our back. Praise the name of God. So, um, let's start this morning because, uh, it's not God's will for you to worry. Praise God. It's not his will for you to doubt. He wants you to trust what he says. And I think the everything we've been teaching, um, these elements we've been praying about, what we've been teaching is so important to the process of dominion, man. I'm telling you, it's the reality is we gotta take these principles, walk them out, and really believe that they are true. It's one thing to hear good teaching, it's one thing to pray about something, but it does you no good if you don't believe it, right? So you got to believe. Faith without works is dead. So if you're just joining us, guys, please share. Glory to God. Let people know you are here. Uh, but a pleasant good morning to everyone. Uh, we're going to get started. Let's start at Colossians 1:13. Glory to God. Uh, Colossians 1:13. Uh, the Bible says, watch this, that he has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of his dear Son, in whom we have redemption through his blood. And the forgiveness of sin. Praise God. So, so the first piece here, family, is that we are— again, I think we hit this earlier this week and it's back on us again this morning, our scripture reading. We have to accept two things according to these two verses, uh, verse 13 and 14 of Colossians 1. One, we got to accept that we have literally been translated out of darkness into light. So you got to believe that. So you're not— you're no longer subject to the systems of the world, right? You're no longer subject to what the enemy says about you. You actually, glory to God, are operating now in the ways of God. You're operating in what God says. Praise God. And that's really where we need to be because you understand you're under a different set of laws. You have a King that wants to take care of you, a King that wants you to walk in dominion over everything in your life. So you gotta accept that you've literally been translated and you're no longer where you used to be. And so that means when you get in light, You start talking different, you start behaving different, you start approaching life in a different way because you're not a part of the old system. I think, and again, I think I hit this last week, you know, we get saved many times and we, we start legalistically trying to dismiss the sin factor. And because that's what we're taught, that's what we learn. And that's not bad, right? But it's bad legalistically because you really should live holy because you love God, not because it's a rule and you— and because your practice of holiness makes you feel saved. Yeah. And what happens is you're trying to master your behavior on your own when really, if you're in the kingdom of light, you can build a relationship with God and the Holy Ghost will assist you in the mastery of how you behave, how you act, how you live on a day-to-day basis. All right, so I want y'all to catch this this morning. Glory to the name of God. You've been translated. If you translate a word from English to Greek or from Greek to English, however way you take the translation, the reality is It moves from one mood, one tone, one pronunciation to the other. It is totally different. Glory to God. Matter of fact, most of the words, you, if you look at the etymology and the definitive value of them, when they move through languages, they change definition. So who you are, we should not be like people who operate in a dark system. We should operate as if we are under the light and in the kingdom of God, right? Secondly, in this text, I spent way too long on that, guys. Secondly, in this text on this Saturday morning, you gotta trust that you're actually saved. You have been, glory to God, been delivered from the power of darkness, the rules of sin and death. Glory to the name. This is so powerful. That you have been redeemed through his blood and your sins are forgiven. So you can't— you'll never take dominion operating in guilt, not believing that you've been born again. So you got to believe you've been translated. So let's pray. Father, in Jesus' name, we thank you and we believe, God, according to Colossians 1:13-14, that one, we have been delivered from the power of darkness, God, and that we are translated into the kingdom of your dear Son. And Father, we commit this morning to live free from worry, free from doubt, free from fear, and free from anxiety. God, we, we commit, God, that hallelujah, that the law of the Spirit of Jesus Christ has made us free from the law of sin and death. So we're no longer on the law of sin and death, but because we're in Christ, we are governed by his kingdom, his kingly royal laws. And everything we do in life, we declare it in the name of Jesus that it is governed by God's power. Hallelujah! In the mighty name of Jesus. And I decree and declare this morning, glory to God, Hallelujah. You ought to worship him on this Saturday morning. Glory to God. This early Saturday morning, you ought to decree and declare out of your spirit, glory to God, that you are free. You live in light. Glory to God. And I declare that you are a kingdom citizen and you have rights. Oh my God. To the resources, the power, and the authority of your king. You have a right legally, glory to God, to live out the laws of the kingdom of God and to operate pray in dominion and live without worry. I decree that doubt, fear, worry, and anxiety is being removed from your life. And glory to God, you will not be afraid because the task at hand is bigger than you. Glory to God. And if you could be faithful over few— yeah, God, I hear you— he said he'll make you ruler, my God, today over many. Pray. He'll make you ruler over many. Glory to God. Hallelujah. Let's keep— let's go. Hebrews 12, verses 1 and 2. The Bible said, therefore also, since we are surrounded with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith. Who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despised the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of God. Oh my God, now this is so good because the race set before us is a dominion race. Glory to God. It's the life that is before us is to subdue. Oh, shakataba ishia. The world and take our place. Glory to God! In dominion. That's the race that's set before us. And watch this, we got a cloud of witnesses around us that's looking at us, that's rooting us on. That's— watch this— that's watching from the realm of the spirit, number one, and in the world. These— this cloud of witnesses are a crowd or a group a group of witnesses that are watching how we live. So we now, we got to pace ourselves and run the race with patience, trusting God is with us, not worrying. Glory to God. This is so good, man. This is so good. And then we look to Jesus as our example, who came to this earth, dominated in his field purpose, completed his purpose. Glory to the name of God. And watch this, gave glory to the Father because of his life. So if you will need an example of what dominating looks like, watch this. Think about Jesus, man. He knew he was going to die from the day he could comprehend as a man. He was a God incarnate. He was God and man, but he knew the day he was gonna die. Glory to God. And that, that was his purpose, and that he would be raised again. But watch this, he had no worry, he had no anxiety, he had no doubt, he had no fear. He dominated it. Even when he was challenged in the Garden of Gethsemane, uh, he went through a moment, which— watch this— we have moments, right? But you have to immediately follow the example of Jesus and go a little bit further and pray a little bit longer so that you could finish your course and you can fulfill the purpose that is set before you. He went a little bit farther and his words were, first it was, God, let this cup pass from me. Uh, can you give it to somebody else? Uh, he had a moment, but he went a little further and he said, nevertheless, here we go, at thy word. We was teaching this yesterday. The word is the most powerful thing you have in this race toward dominion. And you got to trust the word of the Lord over your life. If God said it, you got to believe that you can obtain it. Glory to God! If he ordained it, you can obtain it. We've said that a few times this week, so I want you to— you understand it is definitely, categorically the truth. So if he ordained it, you can obtain it. Say that, say it out loud. Say, if God ordained it I can obtain it. Glory to God. It's just the truth anyhow. Oh my God, I'm almost done. I promise you, I'm not gonna hold you long. Let's pray, let's pray. So Father, we thank you for the race that is set before us, that we're in this earth, God, to take dominion, to operate in our sphere of influence. And while many times in this specific race we found ourselves behind God, because when we witness the world and look at the sea and the ocean of the world, God, we see others who have taken dominion who actually are not aligned with you. But God, we thank you this morning that you'll give us clarity concerning our dominion place and that we will look to your example of what it looks like to run this race with patience and endurance to pace ourselves through the product. Glory to God. Through the process, through every problem that comes against us. And we know that we'll win and that we'll come out strong, we'll come out purer than gold. In the mighty name of Jesus, we declare it to be so. We declare it to be so. We— I release the spirit of endurance this morning. Yes, Lord, in the mighty name of Jesus. And I declare your people will endure. I declare they will run with patience, and I rebuke worry in Jesus' name, because we're following your example. And nevertheless, at thy word, we'll press through, because we know your word, you cannot lie. If you said it, we believe it. And we rebuke the temptation to believe the lie because, Abba shukurata tabansiya, 'cause many a times when we fall into the temptation to believe what is our circumstances is speaking, what our life is saying, what people are doing, and it's not true to who we are, sometimes it becomes easier to believe that lie versus what you said we need to be doing. And then there's some, God, even this morning as I'm praying live or by replay, that are dealing with past failures, and they're listening to history and not destiny in you. And so, Father, I thank you that we forget those things which are behind and we reach to what's ahead, and we press toward dominion. Woo! God, in the mighty name of Jesus. God, we give you glory. Oh my God, today we give you glory. So we thank you, Lord. Hallelujah, and we praise you. Oh, Romans 8:2, it says, for the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. We already prayed that earlier. I mentioned in the first prayer when we was praying about Colossians. So the law of Spirit of life has made me free from the law of sin and death. So again, we're no longer subject to the laws of sin and death. We are in light, so we're no longer subject. Let's go to the next scripture, uh, 2 Timothy 1 and verse 12. The Bible said, for this reason I also suffer these things. Nevertheless, I am not ashamed. Ah, God. So let me say this right here prophetically: God is about to move you from shame— hear this— to fame. And, and not fame in the sense of the word that you may be thinking, but shame to fame means that his glory is going to shine through you. And watch this, while others have beheld your suffering, your challenges, you won't be ashamed of what you have gone through because the glory will break the curse and remove the shame. I'll say that again. The shame is about to turn into fame. Glory to the— I hear you, Father, I hear you. He's about to raise you up in a way, not again, not so much that you are famous and you receive all the glory, but he'll get the glory and the shame will be erased. The curse will be broken. The shame will be gone. So Father, in Jesus' name, we pray right now that even though we've had suffering in our life, we've gone through things, Father. Oh Jesus, we've gone through things where we wanted to throw in the towel, and every time we throw in the towel, you threw it back. And we thank you for that. Every time we wanted to give up, God, you told us not to give up, not to give in, not to give out. Glory to the name of God. And we thank you that we're still here. And we're not ashamed of our story. Glory to the name of God. You're going to take our story and create a testimony. You're going to take the mess and the suffering that we survive. Glory to the name of God. Hallelujah, hallelujah. And I thank you for that. Now you're going to take that suffering in the mighty name of Jesus. You're going to take that broken place, that painful place. And dear God, we give you glory, we give you honor. Thank you, Lord, that you're gonna turn it into fame for you. And many will be drawn to you because they see how you have operated throughout life and how in spite of what we've gone through, we're not worried. We're gonna take our dominion place. Hallelujah. We're not ashamed. See, anxiety, fear, worry, doubt, it's shameful. You try to connect to it in a way where, hallelujah, you start, You get sick in your body, you start avoiding triggers. Glory to the name of God. Because you're worrying, because you're doubting, you're in fear. You start avoiding people. Glory to the name of God. Because you have anxiety about them. You don't wanna be around certain folk because of things that are built deep in you. But the devil is a liar. You don't have to operate in worry. Glory to God. 'Cause we can never have dominion operating in worry. God's got us. He's going to take your shame, yeah, and turn into fame. I gotta move. Glory to the name of God. I pray you're getting this this morning. Praise the Lord. 1 Peter 5, here we go, 6 and 7. Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, yeah, and he— that he may exalt you in due season. Now watch this. So the humbling of myself is a prerequisite to the exalting in due season. Wow. So, and watch this, this word humble is not just to be meek and quiet like a mouse. No, it means to be totally surrendered to God's plan, totally surrendered to God's word. This is a prime example of how to remove out of your life what you don't want and how to get what you do want. It starts with humility. And again, that's not, oh, I'm quiet, I'm humble, praise the Lord, God bless you. No, many times that's false humility, okay? Uh, but real humility is totally surrender to God, his word, his will, versus being surrendered. Because it's quite arrogant that you know the word, right? It's quite arrogant that you pray daily. It's quite arrogant that you go to church weekly. But when trouble rise— hear me— oh, hmm, you still panic, you still freak out, you still revert back to old systems of thinking and worrying and fear and doubting. And that's, that's not humility. But humility says, I see what's presented before me, I see where I'm going, so I'm gonna humble myself under your plan so I can be exalted, so I could take my place of dominion. My God. Verse 7: Cast your care upon him, for he cares for you. Let's pray this. So, Father, we thank you. We're not going to wait for things and circumstances and life to humble us. Because life has a way, God, of sending things. And even sometimes you will allow things that will bring us in alignment with your will. But before that happens, God, we humble ourselves. We align in faith to what you say. We align, glory to the name of God, with the deepest level of humility to your voice. And we make a choice to take action and obey it, God, and not to worry and fear with the cares of this world. We take those cares off our back and we cast them to you, God. We throw them at you, we remove them from our life, and we don't worry about because once you get them— I think we said this earlier this week, Lord, but we said again, glory to God— you will take those cares And you, oh man, and you will deal with them in the mighty name of Jesus. We declare it and we say it is so. Glory to God. Philippians 4 and verse 8. God, I love you. Yeah. Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of a good report, if there be any virtue, and if there be any thing that is praiseworthy, meditate on these things. Now, so this tells me now that just like faith, love, holiness, operating under the alignment of your assignment and your purpose is a choice. It's also a choice to not trust, to not have faith, to doubt, to walk in fear, to walk in worry, to walk in anxiety. These are choices that you choose because it starts here in the mind. Let this same mind be in you that was also in Christ Jesus. So you got to choose what you think about. And the Bible says here, think on whatever is noble, whatever is just. Noble, what is the nobility? Whatever is royal. Okay, so we got a royal contract called the Word of God, right? So think on the royal contract, which is the Word of God, instead of worrying. Because when something presents itself, if you start worrying about it, you made that choice. But instead of worrying, Hallelujah. Think on what's noble. What's noble? What's noble is the word of the living God. So think on that, okay? Trust it, 'cause it cannot fail. Trust it because it cannot lie. Think on whatever is true, the truth. Many a times, because watch this, all facts are not true. Sometimes you're worrying about something that may indeed be a fact, but it's not necessarily true, right? Okay, let me give you an example. Uh, you go to the doctor and the doctor diagnose you with, uh, diabetes, high blood pressure, what have you, right? Well, that may be a fact, but doesn't necessarily mean that's true because all facts are not truth. The truth is the word, what God said. You may have a fact that presents itself in circumstance, but the truth is no matter what the doctor said, the truth is with his stripes you are healed. The truth is, oh my God, that, uh, if you're dealing with lack in your finances and you're coming up short somewhere, instead of worrying about it, you need to start thinking on what's true because the truth sets you free, which the truth brings the result you need. So you need to think and engage that versus engaging the fact that you may be short, you may not have enough, but the truth is you have more than enough, that the Father you serve— again, you're removing what you don't want and replacing it with what you do want by thinking on the right things and saying what's true. So it can present freedom. Because the truth is, he shall supply all your need according to his riches and glory. So instead of you worrying about it— may not come like you want it or when you want it— so instead of worrying about it, trust the truth about it, which is the word of God. Oh my God, because all facts are not truth. Yeah, it's just the truth anyhow, man. So let's pray that. So Father, in Jesus' name, Glory to God. We thank you for what's true, what's lovely, what's of a good report. And Father, we, we remove and dismiss all of the negative things that are of a bad report. Glory to God. That are impure, that are false. Glory to the name of God. Even the things that may be fact but not truth. And Father, we stand in truth. Glory to the name of God. Because your truth will set us free. Oh God, we stand on what's lovely. You love us. Glory to God. And we trust you with our very lives. In the mighty name of Jesus we pray. Glory to God. Hallelujah, hallelujah. Glory. Shabbat. We give God glory, we give him honor. Psalms 55 and 22. I love it. Glory to God. He says, cast your burden on the Lord, and he shall sustain you. He will never permit the righteous to be moved. Are y'all hearing this, man? He says cast your burden on him. And those of us that are in righteousness with him, that are in alignment with him, that's been purged with hyssop and washed by the blood of Jesus. Glory to God. What you worrying for if he says he'll never cause you to be moved? Listen, I'm for real, guys. He'll never cause you to be moved. So instead of you waddling in it, entertaining the burden Take your yoke upon him and learn of him, for his yoke is easy, his burden is light. I'd rather carry him and he carry my stuff. Are y'all hearing this? Because his, his yoke is easy, his burden is light, then I carry the stuff that the enemy throws at me. Are y'all hearing me? Because this is a hindrance to dominion, worrying, because you're carrying too many elements of this life into a supernatural purpose that God did not ordain for you. Let's pray this. So Father, in Jesus' name, we thank you this morning, God, that we cast our burdens on you. And even saints, as I'm praying, I want you to pray with me. And I know it's early on a Saturday morning, but cast those burdens to God. Don't you leave prayer this morning with, with the burden. Don't you leave prayer this morning with that burden. So as we're praying together and we're in agreement, glory to the name of God, I want you, praise God, to take that burden to the Lord. Cast it to him. So sha lukushka tatamanse tabokosha. We thank you, Lord. Cast the burden to the Lord, and we give you praise and we give you glory. Leke shatatabaso to rabakandi osatabaya. We give you honor. We thank you, Lord. We thank you, Lord. We thank you. We bless you, God. We cast our burdens upon you this morning. We release it. We let it go. We're We're not in love with it. We, we divorce it. Glory to the name of God. That's what that word cast means in the Hebrew, to divorce it. We go our separate ways. We send the burdens on, and we trust you, God, because we believe your word. You will not cause the righteous to be moved. And we accept that. We receive that, my God, in the mighty name of Jesus. God, we love you. We love you. We love you. Come on, praise God, people. Oh my God, he's a good God. He's a mighty God. Beside him there is no other. Hallelujah! Glory to God! He— you're not going to be moved. Hallelujah! He's going to keep you cemented in your place in him. You just got to lift those burdens off of you. Glory to God! Hallelujah! We give him praise. We read earlier, we gotta lay aside every weight and the sin. Lay it aside. Divorce yourself from the things that hinder kingdom dominion. Amen. Hallelujah. Glory to God. John 14:1. God is taking us back through this because I'm just telling you, man, we gotta get it. You know, we've touched these scriptures earlier this week, not all of them but some of them, but the reality is he's taking us back through them because this could be the very thing that stops you from entering into the fullness of the promises of God in your life. The fact that you're walking around in doubt and fear and worry and anxiety, and it's just not his will. So he says in John 14:1, let not your heart be troubled. How do I eliminate the trouble in my heart? Believe in God. Believe also in me. In my Father's house there are many mansions. Remember we was teaching that? Many man-eons, many destinies, many ages, many dominion plans. That he says, not where I am, but where I'm going. Where I am, you may be also. Lord, I thank you for bringing this back to us. So he said, not where I'm going, but where I am. So one of the ways to really defeat worry is to always be where God is, not where he's going. Stay with him and replace your trouble with belief. All right, let's pray it. So Father, in Jesus' name, we thank you, God, that we're not going to allow our heart to worry. We're not going to allow our heart to trouble. Glory to Jesus. But we're going to believe— pastuo in Greek— we're going to have total confidence and reliance in you, in your word, in what you say. And we're not going to be troubled by what life brings us. We're not going to get caught up in the woes of society and the latest trends on social media. We're not going to get sucked into, uh, things that do not pertain to our purpose and our destiny. We're going to stay locked in. We're going to stay focused. Glory to God. We're not going to grow idle. Trying to fight battles that we were not ordained to fight. Glory to the name of God. But we are going to focus and lock in on what you've told us to do, and we're going to believe. Glory to God. We're not going to allow what the world's government, what world leaders are doing to affect our belief. We trust you, God. Our heart is not troubled. We believe in God. And we thank you, Lord. We believe in the Jesus that lives in us. Glory to Jesus. Thank you for being so present in our life that we don't have to worry, we don't have to doubt, we don't have to fear because you are with us. And we thank you for it, God, in Jesus' name. Oh, Shaki, la tabando, we love you and we give you glory, and we give you honor. We're not troubled. We believe in God. Nothing the system can do to us, glory to God, can stop us. Glory to God. Hey, Apostle Kirby, God bless you, sir. Good to see you this morning, man. Glory to God. Hallelujah. We're praying the word. Praise God. We're praying the word. Oh, Shabbat. Psalm 138:8. Let's go. Hallelujah. Again, we've been here this week. Glory to God. The Lord will perfect that which concern— in one of our teachings, we've hit these scriptures. The Lord will perfect that. And it's just so crazy, last night Holy Spirit, I came upstairs, Holy Spirit took me right back here, uh, as I was in my office trying to get ready for what we were going to pray this morning, and he brought these same scriptures back, some of these same ones. The Lord will perfect that which concerns me. Your mercy endures forever. Do not forsake the works of your hands. Wow. God's gonna perfect your dominion purpose. He's going to perfect He's gonna make, make you whole again. He's going to restore. He's going to return you to the place of perfection. And everything that concerns you, he's going to bring it into fruition. All right, he says that which concerns you. So this is why we don't need to spend time worrying and being concerned about other people's business. But whatever is in your life that concerns you, the Lord will perfect it. Are y'all hearing this? Whether it's a bill, whether— oh Jesus— whether it's your business prospering, whether it's your church growing, whether it's— glory to the name of God— uh, you becoming a better person. Whatever the case is, the Lord says he's going to perfect that which concerns you so that you can operate at a high level of dominion. Stop using that excuse, nobody's perfect, when the Lord said he's going to perfect that that concerns you. People say because they don't want perfection. Man, I want perfection in the kingdom. I want perfection in God. I want perfection in everything I do. I want it because I know I'm not perfect. So I don't even say that out of my mouth. I say I am perfect. I know that I'm human, right? I'm made flawed. I'm in an imperfect world. The reality is God said as I align with him, he will perfect that, that concerns me. I'm telling you, God's gonna perfect that that concerns you. Stop worrying about it. Stop losing sleep over it. Glory to God. Stop overeating over it. Glory to God. Stop getting angry over it. You know, a lot of time our emotions, our anger, our eating, how we react to life is worry, fear, anxiety that's causing it. Because we use those comforts as a crutch. Even some people's sin sin as a crutch to, to make them feel at peace about what they're worrying about. Something can be going in their life and they feel that, okay, well, ain't that working right for me anyway, let me go sin, let me do this. No, the devil is a liar. He's a liar, okay? God's going to perfect that, that concerns you. Lord have mercy. His mercy endures forever. Glory to or his justice endures forever. We talked about this earlier this week too. He's a just God. You should be pursuing the justice of God. The justice of God means that the word of the living God— watch this— every word belongs to you in this law. Justice is the carrying out of the law. So whatever God said in this book concerning prosperity, concerning anointing, concerning power, concerning dominion, it's justice that endures forever that he wants to hand it to you. But you've got to stop worrying and know that he's going to perfect that, that can— oh, that concerns you. So Father, we thank you, yes, that you will perfect that which concerns us. So no longer will we lose sleep and worry and overeat and behave improperly because we feel like you're not with us. But God, you said in your word you'll never leave us nor forsake us. And besides, this thing is not about emotion, it's about faith. It's about trusting you to do exactly what you said you do. And so, Father, we don't worry based on that fact that you cannot lie, and neither are you the son of man that you should repent. But if you said it, so shall it be. If you said it, so shall it come to pass. Oh my God, oh my God, in Jesus' name we give you praise. We give you glory, God. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. James 1:22, the Bible said, but be ye doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving ourselves. Verse 23, for if anyone hear the word and is not a doer, he's like a man observing his natural face in a mirror bro. Verse 24: For he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. So if you're hearing me read these scriptures, that's reminding you of who you are in God and what God can do. If you've been fasting with us all week and ingesting that word, and the word we've been teaching at 12 noon, right, the word we've been teaching at 5 o'clock prayer every morning, if you've been ingesting that, and then you don't apply it. The Bible says here you're like a man that looks in the mirror and walk away and then forget what they look like, right? Here we go, man. This, this book is a mirror, and, and it's a reflection. It should be a reflection of God's plan for us as his children. It's a legal contract between our Heavenly Father and his citizens. It's a royal contract. And when we hear it, as often as we hear it taught, when we read it, glory to God, it's reminding us of who we are and what God can do. So don't forget, you gotta be a doer. You gotta put it in practice. Listen, because if you don't put it in practice, it's just like you never heard it. It's real. So if you believe it's real, then you need to start practicing the things and the disciplines and the ways of life that are going to produce this word in your life. Glory to God. Oh my, oh my. Abba Sikhu taba. Let's pray. Father, help us to be doers of your word. Help us to take revelation and information that we discover in your word through teaching, through preaching, through our personal study, and to make application of that revelation so that we can see manifestations of the dominion mandate in our life, of the— oh my God— best version of ourselves that only the word can produce. Oh God, I'm praying for maximized, optimized versions of ourselves that will present the dominion version of ourselves to the world, and the world will be different because we showed up, because we're alive, because we're doing what you called us to do in the name of Jesus. Oh God, we declare it to be so. My God. Almost done, family. Almost done. Glory to God. Almost done. Stay with me, please. Please stay with me. Glory to God. Wonderful Savior. Come on, just worship him. Just give him glory. He's worthy. He's worthy to be exalted. Exalted. Glory to God. He's worthy to be lifted up. Hallelujah. We're going to take action, and it's simply saying we're going to put word in action. We're not just going to hear the word, but we're going to do it in the mighty name of Jesus. Glory to God. We're going to put word in action. We got a lot of people that know the word, but they still live like devils. They still wicked. Glory to the name of God. I got— I got to stay right here for a moment because this mirror is constantly and consistently being presented to us. Let's not act as if it's not real. And as soon as we get it and walk away from it, we start worrying, we start doubting, we start fearing. That is not the plan nor the will of God for your life. Oh my God, I gotta go, man. I gotta go. I'm gonna get out your way, man. I'm gonna get out your way. Glory to God. Somebody said, Apostle, you messing with us this morning. I sure am. I'm working on you. I'm working on you in the Holy Ghost, because I want you to do— hallelujah— what God has called you to do. I want you to be all that God has called you to be. Amen. All right, 2 Corinthians 10:5. We're coming to a close. The Bible says this— praise God, hallelujah, glory to Jesus— casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing into captivity— bringing every brought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. So when these thoughts of worry, anxiety, and fear come raise themselves up in your head, you got to immediately, one, pull them down. And then you should have— the Holy Spirit should be, uh, a prison warden in your spirit, in your soul, in your mind. And when you cast it down, you should ask Holy Ghost to place it under arrest and bring it into captivity where it has no authority. Way, glory to God, to raise itself up against you again. So that these thoughts now are in obedience to Christ. They must obey your thought process about God and his word and what he says. So Father, in Jesus' name, we cast down this morning— yes, orangiska tabaso, every imagination and every high and lofty thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God. And we bless you, we honor you. We give you praise that no thought, no imagination that is is unaligned, we could— we deem it illegal, and we pull those thoughts down and we bring them into the obedience of Christ. And we think on what's lovely, what's pure, what's just, what's of a good report, what's true, in the name of Jesus. And we thank you that these thoughts cannot dwell in our mind, our spirit, illegally, but we will think on the things that God thinks concerning us. In Jesus' mighty name. Glory to God. Hallelujah. Last scripture, guys. Philippians 4:6. Again, we just— we're revisiting, glory to God, some of the things we've visited all week long. The Bible said, be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication. So don't be— don't have anxiety about nothing. So let's not make excuses about anxiety because because, uh, worry and anxiety and fear are such big topics in the world. Preachers are talking about it, therapists are talking about it. The reality is that that's good for business to keep you bound to something that the word has freed you from. The Bible said, again, it's a decision you have to make, be anxious for nothing. My job is to disrupt the narratives of the world as an muscle. Y'all hear me? To disrupt these narratives that go against the word of God. Because you could start buying into a secular narrative— watch this— even a medical narrative that— watch this— again, could be a fact, but it's not true. Because here's the fact of the matter concerning worry, fear, anxiety, doubt: you are to be anxious for nothing. This is what God says to you: be anxious for nothing. That's not a suggestion, that's an instruction that you need to make a choice that you're not going to worry. He said, but in everything. So if you find yourself worried about something, just pray in the spirit. Start praying and talking to God. Start praying the word. Glory to the name of God. Find these scriptures I'm giving you today and start praying the word. Glory to God. When you get anxiety, when you start worrying, when you fear, when those things are being triggered, get in the word. Start reading the word out loud and make prayer unto God with everything and supplication, which really is another kind of prayer, prayer, which means you're literally pleading to God through what he promised to supply. Supplication is the supply of a promise. So you got to ask him to do the promise. That's what supplication is, where you specifically are praying about a specific thing and asking for the king to supply in that area. And you know what we'll do a lot of times instead of talking to God about it and standing on faith, we'll go to worrying about it and think that's gonna change something. That's not gonna change anything. It's not gonna make it better. I've just learned in my life, man, not when, when things that are bigger than me are bigger than me, I know, glory to the name of God, it is my job to do what I can and allow him to do what I can't. And allow and to trust in his ability to supply. Glory to his ability to take care of the need. We sitting here worrying about issues that you can't even fix if you tried. So you got to make supplication, because if God— if you don't put in the petition— oh my God, if you don't put in a request or invoice for the need to be met because God's not gonna bombard your life if you don't invite him in. He's not just gonna do it. He may see the need, but he waiting for you to ask. He waiting for you to address it in his word. If you ask anything according to his will, he does it. He does it. Okay, all right, y'all. Oh, y'all got that? Okay, I hope y'all got it. So, Father, we thank you that we are anxious for nothing, putting all things with prayer and supplication and with thanksgiving with thanksgiving. So watch this. We make our requests known unto God. So Father, we are not anxious for nothing. We make prayers, we make supplication, and we make our prayers and supplication with thanksgiving. So when we ask you to supply, we're not gonna leave prayer and supplication worried. We're gonna leave prayer and supplication with thanksgiving. So Father, we're gonna rejoice before the results. We're gonna expect breakthrough before breakthrough coming, because we believe that your credit is good with us. And so God, we can go ahead because we believe when we pray. Jesus, you told us to believe when we pray that we have the things which we ask for. And so, oh, so Father, because we love you and we know you love us, God, we believe when we pray, God. And we believe, God, that you will answer us and you will do just what you said, God. And we believe, God, in the month We believe, God, that the word is true. So God, we can give you thanks. God, we praise you in advance. God, we rejoice like it's already done. We give you praise like hallelujah, the manifestation of the promise is already here. Hallelujah, we glorify you in advance. We praise you that you have done the promise. Simple, simple. The text is saying not worry, but just find promises in the book that cover our need. Glory to God. Ask you to do the promise, supplement you, supplicate you. Whoo! And then we leave prayer and thanksgiving with thanksgiving, knowing that what we have asked has already been granted because we believed when we prayed. Hallelujah! So you don't— whoo! Shabba Bandy, I hear you, Father. So the Lord says, let's leave prayer believing we receive dominion, believing we have the resources to take dominion in our sphere of influence, to be the people that we are alive to be. Our heart is beating because our dominion purpose is still necessary. This body is just a tool that God uses to take dominion through. It's why you're alive. It's why your lungs work, you're breathing, because your purpose is still necessary. Glory to God. You're necessary. So live. I command you to live. Walk out of what you've been in and trust God to bring you out. Lord have mercy. Glory to God. Thank you for joining us for this 6th day of 5 AM prayer, man. Glory to God. This has been a good week. We conclude our fast tomorrow after service. The fast will be over. We've been fasting for 7 days. I'm grateful for this fast. It's been a blessing. If you've missed prayer this week, man, go back and pray with us throughout these 7 days— with these 6 days. It's day 6. We have prayed. Go back and watch the teachings. The teachings have been great. We're going to continue on tomorrow morning, uh, and finish up what we've been teaching. Hopefully we'll finish it up. I believe we're going to be in the Dominion vein for quite sometime. Glory to the name of God. Super excited about the things that are happening for you, and that clarity and insight is opening up in the area you're supposed to dominate. Listen, this is not a game. This is not a joke, man. Life is not a joke. We're here because we have a dominion mandate on our lives, and we got to do what we were born to do. I love you, family. Y'all are so wonderful. Thank you this Saturday morning, glory to God, for joining us again. If you missed any of this, go back. If you're on YouTube or Facebook, we're on 3 different Facebook pages, on YouTube this morning. Wherever you're watching or how you watch, go back and get the teachings because dominion is a mystery. Catch up to where we are, glory to God. This is actually part 7 of the mystery of dominion, so it's like should be a total of 7 messages up there on Dominion already. Catch up so you can stay with us because this is the mandate. Most of the church don't talk about this because they fear it's not possible. But I'm gonna say this and I'm gonna let you go. Dominion is not Plan B, it's Plan A. I love you guys. Y'all be blessed. Heaven smile upon you is my prayer. Y'all have a good Saturday. I'll see y'all tomorrow at 10 AM, Rudder Church. Bring a guest with with you. Let's have some church tomorrow. I love y'all. Y'all be blessed. Peace.
