ASSIGNED TO SHINE, PART 3 | DR. MIKE WOODS, SR.

Pastor Dr. Mike Woods Sr. preaches that true greatness comes through servanthood and training successors who surpass you. He contrasts genuine compassion with staged miracles and prophetic theatrics that use personal data, calling that sorcery. Woods frames believers as ambassadors meant to shine in everyday places like stores and hospitals.

We need you, we need you. God, as the deer pant for water, so does our soul pant for thee, oh God. We're crying out, God, because we need you. Not for show, form, or fashion. Not to be seen of men, but God, we cry out out in the sanctuary because we can't live without you. We cry out in the sanctuary because you're worthy of all glory, you're worthy of all honor. We cry out because you're our way through. We cry because it's in you we live. We cry out, God, because it's in you we have our being. We cry out, God.

Oh God, I wish I had somebody here to just cry out to him. Oh Jesus, we cry out God because you're more than enough. We cry out God because you are our healer.

Worthy is your name.
Wait a minute, y'all. Now, if you found some worth in him, For real. See, worship is— comes from an Anglo-Saxon word that means word scope. So you can only worship in spirit and in truth based on what you have perceived, your perspective, what you have scoped. It's easy to praise because everything that have breath can praise, but them that worship must worship in spirit and in truth. I want you, as we sing this song, to find the truth in your perspective. Is his name really worthy to you? What has his name really done for you? What has his name really meant to your life? Ah, glory! Does he really deserve the praise? When you think about it, does he really deserve your energy that you give him, or is it just another religious activity? If it's that, you might as well sit down and don't even sing. But if you got a scope of him, God have mercy. If he's done anything for you and you know his name is Worthy of the praise. Why don't you sing this with us? Hallelujah. Oh, worthy is your name. Worthy is your name.
Sing Jesus, Jesus, you deserve the praise. You deserve the praise.

I can't speak nobody else, God. You deserve all my praise. You've been good to me. You've been better to me than I've been to myself. If it had not been for you, crazy, I would have lost my mind. I'd be dead, but your name is worthy. Your name is worthy.
Oh, worthy is the name. Worthy is your name, Jesus. You deserve the praise. Worthy is your name.
Worthy is your name. Jesus, you deserve the praise. Worthy is your name.
So worthy.
Come on, worship him a few more moments. You deserve the praise. Worthy is your name. Worthy is your name. Jesus, I dare you just call that name. That's the saving name. The Bible says there is no other name given among men whereby we can be saved, but at the name of Jesus every knee should bow and every tongue confess. Come on, open up your mouth and call that great name. Those of you even watching us live, don't just scroll, take a moment to call on the name of Jesus. Jesus, our King. Jesus, our Redeemer. Redemptive Lord Jesus, it's your efficacious, vicarious, substitutionary, redemptive work of Calvary that gives us the ability to call your name and say, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.

Glory to God. I want to continue this thought that the Holy Spirit gave me. We started teaching this a few weeks back, and the series is called Assigned to Shine. Say that with me. Say, I'm assigned to shine. And we basically want, in this series, want to make it very clear that winning people to God is not an option. It's an act of obedience. Say that, say that with me. Say, winning people to God is an act of obedience. It's not optional. I know we would like it to be because we like the pageantry of church. Are y'all here? We like to go through the motions of church, but when we're done in here, we're being infused to be a light out there. So let's read text series jump into this. Glory to God. The Bible says in Matthew 5:16, the Bible says, let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. I'm gonna read it again because it's great to read the Bible. Let your light— touch yourself, say, my light. And really, this morning I'm going to focus really heavy on the person who is the light, and that's you. Say, I'm the light. All right, he said, let your light shine before men, that they— now he gives you a reason why your light is shining. Not so people can fall in love with you. But seemingly a lot of people have adopted this as an opportunity for people to fall in love with them. But whenever we're doing anything for the kingdom, it's never about us. It's about the king. It's about Jesus. Somebody say amen. Amen. Say it's about the King. So I want my light to shine before men so they can see my good works, to bring glory to the Father. So everything we do for him is designed to bring glory to God. Say this for me, say, I exist to give God glory. Say, as a matter of fact, I am breathing I have the activities of my limbs. I have gifts so I can glorify God. Amen. So every believer has a divine assignment to shine. So we've covered, you know, the mandate of evangelism. We've talked about how it ain't an option. Again, it's your responsibility. It's your act of obedience. You command it to shine. Then we talked about the meaning of it. We kind of got into what it means to share it. Evangelism is the deliberate, strategic, intentional— and watch this— intentional proclamation of good news, which means you have to have strategy and be very intentional on winning people. Just like winning anything. Are y'all here? I played sports in high school, played some sports in college, and in order to win, guess what we had to do? Practice. So we come up with strategy so we can defeat the other team. We watched tapes, we knew the best players, everything, so that we had a strategy to win. But we don't have strategies to win people to God. And most people— and the Bible even says that he that wins a soul is wise. So if you're gonna win a soul, you got to get some strategies to win them. All right, so we're gonna— I'm gonna stay on that today. But today I want to jump into this people of the assignment. Glory to God. And these persons, you and I, of the assignment. So let's deal with this. Uh, go to that— we went— we read Matthew 5:16. I want you to go to 5:14, and we're going to dive in this. I feel like preaching, but I'm going to work really hard to just teach, all right? Okay. But I feel the preacher. I was— I did a wedding yesterday, and my brother-in-law and my new sister, they set such an amazing atmosphere in the his wedding. It was worship all through, people coming down the aisle. And you know, I can't play with worship. And it was like, it was just burning in me. And I was, you know, but I wanted to— it was a ceremony, but I wanted to go in. And I had to remember where I was at. So I feel real good this morning because I'm free. Praise Jesus. They had me on some chains yesterday, but I'm telling you, I could have went at any time. I could have just went all the way in. So Matthew 5 at verse 14, it says, you— point your hand to somebody, say you again. We getting to this person of the light. You Matter of fact, get real rude, point at them again. Say, you, yes, you, you are the light of the world. Now let's confirm that. Put your hand on your chest. Say, I'm the light, I'm the light of the world, of the world. Come on, say it again. Say, I'm the light, I'm the light of the world, of the world. Now let's, let's look at these, these two words here. One is light, which is fos in Greek. This word means that you are the illumination, you are the direction for the world. So watch this, we as the people of God, as the church, shouldn't be following the world. We should be trendsetters and not trend followers. But see, man, the church tries to do everything like the world does. Oh God, most churches— that's why, especially when it's time to preach, we're turning the lights on. But most churches, lights off the whole service. Are y'all hearing this? And we do it so people will just pay attention to them and God. But after that's over, let's— we, we need to see.
I won't look directly at you.
I preach at church, uh, last year, it's about 3,500 people in And when I got up, the lights were still off. I, I said very nicely, please turn the lights on, I need to see these. He's talking to him. Are y'all hearing this? Because at the end of the day, what's happening, we're trying to make the church like a nightclub, and it's not necessary because it ain't a nightclub. We're trying to make the world comfortable. And God never called us to make the world comfortable in the house of God. And let me just tell myself, so I was yesterday, I was sitting there at the table at the reception, you know, everybody was doing their stuff, all that music was on, and I'm just sitting there thinking, I said, Lord, and I just, I was looking at different ones that have visited with us before out of the family, and I was saying, well, maybe we need to do something different. To get people to keep coming back. Maybe we need to do something like everybody else is doing. Maybe we need to have a praise and worship short. Maybe we have a choir with A and B selection. I'm just sitting there going through all this in my head, and the Lord said, if you do it, I'm leaving. I said, okay, well, I'd rather have you than, than that kind of retention. You need people who want your culture. And I know God is preparing people who want to be in this kind of culture. But some people say, if you want to grow your church— I've been to all the church growth conferences, I listen, guys say, okay, you got to have 3 fast, 2 slow in worship. It shouldn't take nothing but 15 minutes, man. When they said that, I told my wife, I said, we ain't gonna make it. Ain't no way we gonna do worship 15 minutes. 15 minutes, I just be getting warmed up. I'm— because I'm trying to get somewhere and worship for real, not just entertain. I want God to show up. I want bodies to be healed. I want to see miracles. I want God to come in the room in a way that he cannot be denied that he was here. But if I limit something like this, somebody said, well, he can do that in 15 minutes. Yes, he can, but we can't. It take most people 15 minutes to get their mind on God when they get to church. Okay, I'm okay. So we have to now become a navigational system and create a culture that people desire to be in, not just in the church but out there, where they want to be around God and not necessarily us, right? So you are the light of the cosmos, the world, the cosmopolitan, which is the systems and structures of Earth. So you're the light of this system. I told y'all before, that's why we shouldn't be worried about what's happening at 1600 Pennsylvania, which is the White House, for those of you that don't know that address. We serve the King of Kings, we serve the Lord of Lords. Who cares what Trump does? We are light and we have a different system of government. Yeah, so they can do all this stuff, but I'm under the Constitution of the Holy Bible. The Bible is my Constitution. So they can amend it, go against the Bible, because you know, you really know that the Constitution was originally written according to the Ten Commandments. So a lot of things in the Constitution lined itself with the word of God. Well, they didn't believe that, the stuff they was writing, because they still had people slaves. But, but here's the reality. They made a great attempt to make sure, okay, we want to say what the Bible say. Now, now you have wicked leaders who have come along and changed so much that goes against scripture. We must maintain our holy constitution. So now what they say— are y'all hearing this? We have to be a light that this still works. Guess what? They can't see it still working if you ain't got no power. Come on, they can't say it still works if you don't have the anointing, because then they're going to think you're like every other person that go to church. If you don't operate in a light that presents your edge, okay, you got to have some real power. You got to— Rusty, you can't be shaking flimsy about what you talking about. You got to be bold. You can't have believing trying to convince somebody else that it's right. You talk to somebody about God and you don't have believing work. Say I'm a son of the shine. He said you the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid. So we shouldn't be hidden. God says, I've said— watch it. So first of all, I want you to get the picture here. He didn't set us in the church. I'm sure if he wanted that to be what was said, that's what would have been said. It said he set us on a hill, like a city on the hill. So when we come in here, this is Kingdom University. We come to church to get trained to go to the hill. We come to the church to get the education we need so we can go sit on the hill and people can see who we are in God. The word 'sitting' there is the same word we get words like situation. So he's saying, I put you in a place you can be seen so your situation will glorify me and draw people people to me. All right, now if your situation is jacked up and you ain't walking in obedience to God, you don't need to be on the hill. We need to keep you in the valley till you get your stuff together, y'all, because we don't need people seeing that. Because what they gonna say? Oh no, we— let's keep you in the valley to get you together. I was watching an interview and one of the questions came up about this podcast, and I'm gonna move, uh, but this is a good place to say this. And they were going back and forth about these questions, and one of the questions came up to one of the pastors on the panel, and he said to the pastor, he said, so Pastor, uh, being that the church is open for all people, okay, he said, so if a whoremonger, known whoremonger, came in your church, a known lesbian, a known homosexual, known liar came to your church? Would you allow them after they join your church to serve? Okay, y'all not gonna like my answer, but this pastor said, oh sure, we got to get them in the door, we got to let them get— do something. Listen, if you still working it out, period. Let's be an example to God. Let's get that work out. Are you hearing this? Let's not put you up before people as spit poison. Now, if you're free and you got a testimony to where you came from, otherwise what are we doing here, right? And we're just gonna let everybody who hasn't been transformed serve. And one of the other pastors rebelled against that and said, well, you know, we He was on my team, like, yeah, no, we don't need to do that. But the preacher said, well, you're not going to build a very successful community because they're going to go somewhere where they can. Reality is they really don't want to be changed. What they want is, is this: they want the Michael, they want a position to serve in the community, but they don't want transformation, right? So, so they need to be somewhere that that won't challenge them to be transformed. But the reality is, in the church, we need to become a situation that says, I used to be this. We need some alcoholics to be able to show up in the world and say, I used to be a drunk, but now I'm a deacon. Are y'all hearing this? We need some crackheads to show up in the world and say, I used to be a crackhead, but now I'm living the me. We need some more mothers. I used to be a big hoe, didn't turn down nothing but my collar. Y'all ain't talking to me. But look what God done did. I said done did. Glory to God. Look what God done did. He done changed me, transformed me, and I'm not what I used to be, man. We used to have testimony service when the church I came out of, and, and the, the mothers would get up and say, I looked at my hand hands and they look new. I looked at my feet and they look new. I wonder, I'll be looking like them same old hands, Mama, them same feet you had last week. But at the end of the day, I understand now what I touch— I don't touch— used to touch, I don't touch no more. The places I used to go with my feet, I don't go no more. Are y'all here? The things I used to say with my mouth, I don't say no more. The church is designed to be a light, a place of transformation. I guess somebody's shouting and believing in the name of Jesus. Say, I'm transformed! Well, I told y'all I feel like preaching. I'm gonna try to teach this. So we— which means you got to be able to hear and be so bright with your light and what God has done. Glory to God! Then when people look up, they want what you got. Hallelujah! That they want to live the same way you live. That they want to operate the same way you operate. Go to 2 Corinthians 5:20. I'm gonna get through this quickly and directly. Glory to God. My daughter Sharif celebrated her birthday this week. Where's she at? She must have went out. But y'all make sure y'all tell her happy birthday. Glory to God. Before we leave this building today, she serves really well in this church, and I am grateful for her. Glory to God. Y'all, yeah, that's a good place to clap. Pastor, did you have to do that in the middle of the message? Yes, because I might forget later. So when it came up, glory to God. 2 Corinthians 5, verse 20, the Bible says, now then, watch this, we are ambassadors for Christ. Whoa. So this is what this person looks like. Say, I'm an ambassador. An ambassador is one that has been sent to act on behalf of the one that sent them. Watch this, with all the power, all the authority, all the rights of the one that sent them. This right here ought to give you some peace about being the person, because you're not doing this on your own. You're being sent into the world by God with his authority. As an ambassador of heaven, when you show up, things ought to shift. When you show up at the family reunion, things ought to be different. I mean, I was at a reception and I, yeah, I'm grateful for God on my life. But listen, you're at a reception, enjoy yourself. Don't worry about me, I'm in here. Glory to God. But I had several people calling me, I'm about to go out here and dance, preacher, so don't judge me. I'm like, no, I'm not gonna judge you. That's on you. You go. I'm not going out there, but you, you go. Because, because, I mean, listen, I'm not here yet, but there's a something about your life that should say standard. Are you hearing this? All right, that should say, okay, I need to make sure I don't cuss when this person is around. But if you around folk and they cussing and blowing smoke in your face They don't have the respect they should for you. They have to treat you like an ambassador. And watch this, you got to demand that. Are y'all hearing me? You can't just show up in places and not demand that you be treated as like you've been sent from him. How do you demand that? He said be rude. But you have to be so prayerful and so— watch this— intentional in how you're living and in your behavior that it demands their heart. But if you— if everybody at the table drinking and you decide, okay, well, I'm just gonna join in because they doing it so you can feel social— no, you got to pull back and say, okay, let me be the light in this situation. I'm just trying to help you because you ain't gonna win them unless you are seen. As an ambassador. Watch this. If President Trump sends an ambassador to China and that ambassador goes to China, he is speaking on behalf of the United States, and whatever he says, it is viewed as authority because the president said. Now let me go to China saying I'm speaking on behalf of the president. They probably gonna throw me in some Asian jail and say, you crazy, man, because they don't know I haven't been sanctioned. They don't have that authority to speak on his behalf. I'm telling y'all today, you got the authority to show up on Jesus's behalf. He ain't here. You are. Yeah, watch this. Let's stop complaining about what you permit. Okay, I'm gonna say that again. Stop complaining about what you permit. Are y'all hearing this? You complaining about the darkness in the world, complaining about Atlanta. Oh, there's too many homosexuals in Atlanta. Everywhere I go. Well, what are you being alike? Are you hearing this? Honestly, in our nation, only 2.5% of our nation is in the LGBTQ community, but people have more complaints about them than anybody. But what kind of light are you being to that? And I ain't talking about beating them up, beating them down. You got to be loving. With loving kindness have I drawn them. Are y'all here? I mean, I gotta accept it. But I gotta love him, and I can tell you the truth in love instead of being nasty, okay, and mean-spirited. And then, but the main folks complaining is the ones that's nasty and mean-spirited. You drive to your house and the drug boys on the corner, you're like, Lord, I wish they clean up this corner, clean up this neighborhood. No, you get out your car with your big light and you clean up the corner. Okay, all right, so I'm just telling you now, you, you light up real good when we get into church service. Lord, this neighborhood done gone bad, they shooting every night. Well, you need— well, you need to figure out how you can reach the folks that shoot. Are y'all hearing this? Somebody said, I'm gonna pray from a distance. Jesus and send the word. But listen, what I'm saying, you need to be intentional and have some wise strategies on how you can reach them for real. Because don't complain about what you permit. You're an ambassador. You got the power to bring change. You got the power to bring light in a situation that's corrupt and wicked. Let's stop complaining about the stuff our president does. Let's be a light and let's pray for him. The Bible said pray for them to have authority. He in office now, ain't nothing you can do about it, right? You might want an impeachment, but you and I can't impeach him. So instead of you complaining, you might ought to pray. Glory to God, because his hand is feet inches away from a nuclear— what— war that can happen at any time. So don't complain about that and talk about it and write blogs and post about it and share memes about it. No, be a light and pray. Are you here? Yeah, that's it. The scripture says, if my people— 2 Chronicles 7:14— which are called by my name would humble themselves, pray, seek my face, turn from their wicked ways, he said Then I hear ambassadors move heaven. Are y'all here? I gotta get out of here, man. He says we're ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us. In other words, the apostle is saying we're here as ambassadors, and God literally was beseeching you— adophos in Greek— begging you through the apostle's ministry to be reconciled to God. So the purpose of an ambassador is to cause people to have reconciliation or reconnection to God. So part of your assignment as the person to shine is to help people reconnect with God. And somebody may say, well, some of these people, Apostle, never knew God. They can't do what they— the stuff they doing. But listen, I want to tell you something. Everybody has a pre-Adamic relationship with God. You were born in sin, shaping in iniquity, but before you got here, every human spirit had a relationship with God. Jeremiah 1:5 says, before I formed you in the belly, I knew Are y'all hearing this? So you didn't— you want to sit there before you got there. You had pre-Adamic relationship. You hung out. Yada in, in the Hebrew, which means I was in a place where I was intimate with God. I was in— oh my God, I was in God's face. We talked, we dialogued, he made deposits in me. Matter of fact, I want to tell you, when you came to this planet, you came pregnant. Ah, glory to God! And you and God didn't have sex, but God put a seed in you, and you're pregnant, and God's the daddy. Oh, y'all ain't got to talk to me here. God's the daddy of your destiny. He's the daddy of your purpose. Lord, I feel that. Elbow somebody and tell them, I'm pregnant, and God's the daddy. Women don't want to say that because you think about— no, I'm talking about in the spirit. Glory, glory. God's the daddy of that baby. The reality is he knew you, he knew every sin. And God says, I want my people back. How, how do I know? He said, he said, watch this, he said, I knew you and And then I ordained you the prophet. You may not be a prophet, but there's an ordination to your life. He was talking specifically to Jeremiah, but you need to understand that there's something he ordained you for before you got— I got to go home. Lord have mercy. Rub your belly and say, I'm ordained. Glory to the name of God. Listen, then before they pour oil on on you and give you a piece of paper. I'm telling you, you're ordained by God to be an ambassador, to reconcile people to God through your gift and your anointing and your assignment. Hallelujah! I gotta go. Glory to God. Say, I'm assigned to be a messenger with the message. See, that's what an ambassador Messenger does when they show up. They got a message from the one that sent them. They don't show up in their flesh, they show up with a message from the Messenger. What did God tell you to say? If you see people you know you need to witness to, instead of again complaining about them, pray about a strategy to reach them. How do I talk to God, what do you want me to say? You know, I've learned when you do that, when you get in those situations, you may not have it until you get there or until you open your mouth and start talking. God will word your mouth with what you need to say. And here's the other great part of that: it becomes very easy when you believe that God's already prepared them to receive you. I'm telling you right now, you think it's hard, you think they're going to reject you, and most people don't talk about God because they fear rejection. But can I tell you something? God's already prepared the hearts of those assigned to you to receive. I need you to hear that. Don't worry about rejection. Don't worry about being pushed away. Don't worry about them telling you, glory to God, that I'm an atheist, I don't believe in God. Listen, they're already ready to receive. So say, I am, I am the person who is assigned to shine. Now let's talk about real quick the people you assigned to. This is important. Who are you called to reach? I use Brother Smith, Evangelist Smith, in this regard every time because he has literally been through some stuff in his life. I have So there are people that man can reach that I will never reach. Are y'all hearing this? Because they assigned to him, they're assigned to the things God delivered him from. Now there are things God is living me from, and there are people I'll reach in that category that he won't reach. See, you got to know who you're called to. Listen, just because everybody's going to Africa don't mean you called to Africa. Just because Nicole is about to go overseas to do mission work— where you going? Spain, right? And we're going to be a blessing to her and help her with that and support her evangelistic efforts. Don't mean you called his faith. All right, are y'all hearing this? You got to know who you called to. And watch this, most of the time it's people who are in the fear of your influence. It's people who relate to where you've been, where you are, and where you're going. Some folks have been inviting me to Pakistan for 20 years. I'm talking about these Pakistanis are diligent. They won't let up. I mean, every time I look up, we want you to come, Pakistan, do great revival. They'll be sending me these pictures of their revivals and how hundreds of thousands of people be gathered to get saved. I'm like, God ain't told me to come, but when God tells me to come, I'm coming. 'Cause I know Pakistan is a Muslim nation and folk walking around with bombs strapped to them. Y'all ain't got to talk. Looking for you to say Jesus. So I need to make sure Jesus want me to go. Y'all ain't got to talk. 'Cause if Akbar come up to me talking about he going to push the button, the bomb ain't going to go off, 'cause because I'm supposed to be there. But if I go because I got invited— and then on top of that, I think you were in the church, in the Jackson Church, Prophet Greta, uh, my spiritual father, prophesied to me one Sunday. He was there preaching. He said, you're going to the Middle East. He said, you're gonna get shot at several times. He said, you're gonna get out, but they're gonna shoot at you several times because you preaching Jesus. I ain't told him nothing about these people was inviting me, but when he said that, I started praying immediately. Okay God, I'm— I'll call you, tell me, but we need to remove two things because warning coming for destruction. Two, I don't want nobody point no gun in me, period. All right, I believe you use the man of God, but let's pray about what he said. Are y'all hearing this? And until I get a green light that either that person that's gonna shoot at me has died or got saved. Y'all not talking, because I believe in prophecy, and I believe he especially— he is, because he gave me a lot of words that came to pass. But now, bro, we gonna pray that man dead or saved. I ain't getting on the plane going to Pakistan. Okay, all right. Are y'all here? I'm just saying, you got to know you called to. You got another community of people that will receive you, because you're setting yourself up for failure if you think you're called to reach everybody, because you're not. There are some people that have turned you off just because there are certain things they have decided they don't like about you, and you got to be okay with that. That's just people. I just got to understand that you are a person that plants where God tells you to plant, that waters where God tells you to water. Some plant, some water, but God give the input. Because at the end of the day, you can't save nobody. Go to Acts 17 real quick. We give you praise. Praise Jesus. This is not popular teaching because people don't want this responsibility, but I'm gonna teach it. Glory to God. Acts 17:26, the Bible says, and have made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and have determined the times before appointed and the bounds of their habitation. Watch this, verse 27. He said that they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him and find him, though he be not far. Y'all hear that? From every one of us. In other words, he ain't lost. He close to all of us, including the sinner, right? And the Bible says basically here, God has determined who lives where and when they live And he knows when your path is going to cross them. And all he's saying in these two verses is you need to be ready when you cross the people who occupy the space that they're supposed to be in to receive you. That means you have to walk in the spirit for real. So we so spiritually deep at church. Church, man. We squint our eyes, we speak in tongues, we lay on the floor, we just get up in glory, which is great, but I need you to walk in the spirit at Walmart. You need to learn how to walk in the spirit without squinting your eyes, without putting a mean look on your face. I don't know, sometimes people think the meaner they look, the more spiritual. No, that doesn't mean that. I mean, some people— we used to call it growing up, we would see the saints going— that's a sanctified pool, that's what we call it. But they acting real sanctified. But most time when folk got to put on all them antics, they ain't as deep as they acting. A person that's really got relationship with God never has to go through drama to make you believe God is with them. I need y'all to show up at Walmart and know how to smile and be in the spirit. Y'all hearing this? You know how to be nice to people and still be in the spirit. And watch this, use that prophetic clock you got, that prophetic discernment. Everybody want to prophesy at church and walk— be walking through Walmart and know the people, something going on in their life, and be able to discern that you need to talk to them, and that you've now found the same space with somebody that needs what you carry. And when you're in the spirit, you'll know that. True story. This— I got several stories like this, but this— I'm going to give you an example of how this works. I was actually in right over here at the Dollar Tree. Was that a Dollar General right over there in this plaza? It's a Dollar Tree. Dollar Tree. I was in the Dollar Tree, and I was in line getting ready to go out. I had some stuff I was about to pay for. There was a lady in in front of me. And the Lord said, that lady is really struggling and she needs your help. He said, I want you to minister to her and pay for all the stuff she got up there. I'm looking at— she done filled up her buggy. I'm like, okay, Jesus. But it was Dollar Tree, okay? So I want you So I, I tell her, I said, ma'am, the Lord told me to pay for your stuff. I said, do you mind if I do that? She was like, oh no, you know, I said, no, I have to obey. Just whatever it is, I'm gonna pay the bill. So they swiped all her stuff. I gave him my card, and then before she left, I stopped to start talking to her. I said, but you're going through a lot of strain in your life with your children and your children's father. That's what the Lord showed me. And you've been worrying about child support and what he's going to do for them. I said, well, the Lord said to tell you, if you receive him, he'll take care of you. He'll be a father to you, and he'll make sure those children always are provided for. And she just started weeping in that moment, and I led her to Christ. Gave her one of the flyers for the church. She ain't came yet. She said, I'm coming to your church, it's not too far from now. She lives in this community, but you know, I'm believing God for it. One day she's gonna wake up and realize, I gotta go and give and serve God and be in church. We got the first part together, right? But if I wouldn't have been discerning, I would have missed that moment for And watch this, to be a blessing to a person that really needed it. So you got to go in Walmart and look for clues. Glory to God. Go to the gas station, be looking for clues, because every opportunity may be an opportunity for ministry. But again, people so obsessed with this, they want this when all you need is this. All you need is some discernment to use this, and you can bring people to God. You ought to go into Walmart and see somebody with a cast on and view that as an opportunity for a miracle. I say, you know what, walk up to him, say, hey, you know what, my God heals broken bones. Can I just pray for you? You ain't even got to make a Just pray real quick and ask God to heal it, and then ask him to rip the cast off right there in Walmart and run around the store like Benny Hinn would do. I said, look what God has done. You talk about— you talking about somebody getting a broken— y'all laughing, but I'm telling you, that can happen. You gotta look for clues. See somebody in the store with a wheelchair today, let me pray. A matter of fact, just wake up one day and say, this is my evangelistic day. There's a world I'm called to reach. And God lead me to a medical office, let's say an oncology office. Okay, everybody in there is there to get something about cancer. They therefore cancer visit, but you just show up cancer-free and sit in the lobby. Are y'all hearing this? And just sitting by people and say, you know what, God heals cancer, can I just pray for you? They might put you out after they realize what you're doing. but you be done planting some seeds and, and help some folk get healed before the, before the receptionist. Cuz yeah, that's right, Pastor Terry, you will become bad for business. Cuz do you believe God heal cancer? Yes. Well, you got to go into the world where the cancer patients are and be a light. Oh boy, someone said that's too self, boy. But this is what we need to be doing. Go into the world, the system, the cosmos. You're lights to the world. Go to the emergency room. You know everybody in there sick. Most of them folk don't want to be in there waiting anyway. I've been praying 4 days. I'm telling you, God have to be really delayed for me to go to emerg— I be praying 4 days for real, cuz that's about how long you're gonna wait in the emergency room because it's, it's terrible. But show up in there, you can minister all night. I'm just telling you how to be an ambassador. You want to use your gift? Show up in the emergency room and say, hey, what's going on with you? Why are you here tonight? You ain't got to wait on them doctors, they slow. My God is an on-time God right now. Let's pray. Do you know what God's going to do with that thing? Woo! Glory to God. Just because you there in obedience, he going to show up and he's going to show out, amen, because you're obeying and being the light. But you can't see that if you ain't out there. If we just come in here and get under the bushel and hide, well Go to Luke 19. I'm almost finished. Y'all getting anything out of this this morning? Luke 19:10. The Bible says this, it said, for the Son of Man, Jesus is come to seek and to save that which was lost. Was lost indicates again you were in God before you got here. Jesus confirms my point. So he said, but I came into the world to seek and save those that belong to me. Now wait a minute, Jesus is gone now. But when he died and came back in Matthew 28, he came back from the dead, went and preached his last sermon, and one of the things he told him was, go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature, and these signs shall follow them that believe. I just told you This again, going to an emergency room, going to that cancer office in Walmart, the science right there with you. They can't catch up with you and be used if you don't give it opportunity. We got science following us around all day, bored. I wish they had known somebody. Jesus. I wish they would cast out a devil. God help all these devils. They won't touch one. I wish they would speak in another tongue, somebody else's language. The gospel, that's with you. You know, you can, you can come up on a Spanish person that don't speak no English. Are y'all hearing this? But God will word your mouth with Spanish. It's right there with you, but you got to give it opportunity. I'm about to go. I'm about to go. He said, I come to seek and save them that are lost. You're his conduit now because he's gone. He sent you Holy Ghost, another comforter, Apo Paracletus, one to act in his stead. He's in you. He's empowered you. And every assignment, every gift, every anointing, every ounce of intellect you have, he gave it to you so you could seek and save them that are out there lost. Not that we can show one another how anointed we are. Oh God, the church is so notorious for competition. One of the things that serving does— I did a hand washing service for the couple yesterday, uh, from John 16, where Jesus girded himself with a towel, and the Bible said he kneeled and he washed the disciples' feet. He was showing us that there's nothing wrong with serving one another in a marriage. It can't be effective unless we serve each other. You can't be effective in God unless you serve him. And I'm closing with this: you can't seek and save that which is lost unless you become a servant. You have to become a servant because servant— there's only one definition of servant: slave. The word serve, doulos in Greek, means bond slave. I know black folk get nervous when you hear that, but you ought to be a slave to God. Black folks hear the word slave, don't wear my— where my 40 Acres and a Mule? We still want some retribution. Listen, get over it. It's over. You've been done fought with your own team and still don't do nothing. Are y'all here? I need you to understand something. God says you are conduit of power, and you have to serve him in a way that the power of God here comes out of your life and brings transformation to others. And you got to be humble to serve. Most people don't serve because of past trauma. But it feels like I got to be the head and Lord over everything, because if I lay down my authority, if I walk in humility and serve, then you're gonna traumatize me again. Because most of the time, trauma happens from a place of humility, from a place of innocence. You, you really can't get traumatized unless someone violates your innocence. Yeah, there's no right way to be a child. Are y'all hearing this? And there's no wrong way to be a child. You're just a child. But there are people who were violated as children and they were traumatized. I was violated as a child by a grown woman. Are y'all hearing this? Which introduced my life to a life of fornication. Thank God for deliverance. But that trauma— y'all ain't got to talk to me here— it had me at a place in my life where I never wanted to trust adults. I never wanted to trust people in authority because it wasn't just the sex. It was because if you're an adult, I need to have my dukes up because you might do this to me. And somebody said, oh, Apostle, you was a 14-year-old boy and she was grown, but you like that. No, I wasn't ready for that mentally. There's no wrong way for me to be in my bed sleep. Well, are y'all hearing this? And you with your grown, burly, greasy self come in there and then and take my innocence? Are y'all hearing this? And people do that kind of stuff because ain't no man they age want them. So I'm gonna take it from somebody that don't know no better. Oh, y'all ain't got to talk to me. Listen, but I'm telling you, sometimes it's hard to serve. I'm just talking out of my experience. When you've been— when you've been traumatized, for a long time I had a problem submitting to other men to cover me. Or if I did, I didn't trust them because of where I had been. But there has to be a vulnerability in service. That when you serve God, it'll remove competition. See, when you are a real servant, you don't have to be seen. Y'all ain't got— you do, you're doing behind the scenes. That's why I thank God for the people in this church that's around me. They don't never do stuff. I can go out of town and I don't worry because they serve while I'm here. Y'all ain't got to say nothing. I don't worry about the folk that serve good. Hallelujah. In my absence, I worry about the folk that serve good in my presence but don't do it in my absence. Are y'all hearing this? Because that means they're trying to be seen. And God says, I need you to be so vulnerable that you don't compete with another. You know who you are. That even if the work that he's called you to do is never in front of a camera or in front of a phone— y'all ain't talking to me here. We're obsessed with lives. People get on the live and they got no business in front of their phone saying nothing. I'll be seeing some of this stuff. If you don't cut that phone off— because, and I thank God, because God be blocking some of this stuff. I look up at the corner, it's zero. Okay, good. Praise God. Thank God. Yeah, keep on talking because ain't nobody listening to you anyway. Because the reality is, when you serve, you don't have to be out front. A servant will go in the street and get people saved and not want credit. You got some folks say, well, that's stars in my crown, I got them saved. You can't save nobody. Jesus is the only person that saves. He died on the cross. Glory to God. But when I know who I am, I'm not going to compete with you. And I'm a servant of God and I'm doing what I got to do. I'm not in competition. I'm so proud when I, when I see my daughters praying and all of them that do intercession. Glory to God. They don't compete. They get up out of their heart and intercede for the church. I love it because at the end of the day, they know who they are. Are y'all here? When you're serving God and not people, you'll do it every time. Because serving people gives you a fear that they don't want to receive you, or that they're going to shut you down, they're not going to like what you do. Who cares? You got to live. A real servant lives for the audience of one. Oh, I got to get out of here. So touch yourself, say, I'm living for the audience of one, which means your desire ought to be to please him and him alone. So yesterday I told him, I said, service removes competition. So when you enter into a marriage, you don't compete with your wife. When you enter into a covenant with God, you don't compete with his other children who are in covenant. Secondly, I told him, I said, it also releases compassion when you're serving. So I got to talk about this now because I wanted to go all the way down yesterday, but I couldn't. It was a ceremony, praise God. So I had to hit it and get off it. Glory to God. But say that one, say it releases compassion. You're not going to witness if you don't have compassion. People. But a real servant has compassion for souls. It means that you, you command a passion or a love toward another, and you desire to see them have what you have. A real servant wants people to know God. Listen, I want people to know God like I know him, better than I know him. I want people to supersede my gifts, my abilities. A great leader teaches people how to do what he does and does it better. I want Pastor Jeffrey to be a better pastor than me. I want Prophet to be a better prophet than me. I want all my apostolic sons that I cover around this world to be better apostles than me. Why? Because I serve them. And they'll tell you, a lot of times they'll thank me for something I do. My response for 30 years has been, it's my pleasure to serve. Because that's exactly what I'm doing. I'm trying to serve you in a way, because you know what the Bible says, the greatest among you will be your servant. So I have compassion to see other people be great. I want to see other people fulfill their purpose, fulfill their dreams, fulfill their destiny. I dare you, touch yourself and say, I'm a servant of God. So I have compassion for others. Say, my gift is full of power. Say, my gift is full of the anointing. Said, many will be saved because of my compassion. Because listen, this thing is so real, y'all, and God is waiting for you to just really be compassionate on others. And let me tell you something, miracles, signs, wonders for real follow compassion. Whenever Jesus worked a miracle, you you read in the Bible, it says he was moved with compassion. So the miraculous and compassion are teammates. You want to see a miracle, you better have some compassion. It better not be for show, it ain't gonna happen. Yeah, it's funny how people want to see miracles and, uh, just, just so happen they got a videographer there. I mean, you got your cameraman following you around And you want to see these miracles so you can get them on tape, so you can replay them. But can you do it when the camera off? A real servant can work miracles when the camera is off and not worry nobody saw it. Now granted, I ain't knocking none of this technology because I use all of it, but I'm trying to tell you we got to use it with the right motive. We cannot be staging stuff. There were times back in the '80s Folks were staging miracles because they wanted people— they would hire people for real and say, okay, I want you to say you can't walk, and when I touch you, I just want you to lose your mind. And they'd be paying them like $100 to just act at church. It's ridiculous. Preacher will have something in their ear acting like they got the gift of discernment. Yeah. Say somebody in the audience named Gail, and the person in the booth be telling them somebody that filled out a card came in, name is Gail. They still do it today, it's just different. They use social media to call your name. Some of y'all get so impressed with prophecies where they calling your name out. First of all, you know your name. I just need to be clear, you know your name. In no way that edifies you. Why does God got to waste his good time to tell the prophet to tell you your name? You know your address. There's a lady here, uh, by the name of Tanya Kirby. She lives at 1489 whatever, whatever, whatever. And, and people— oh God, he knew my name! You know it too. But most of the time you can find anybody on Google, you find anybody on Facebook. And if a person— if you're a person that constantly comments on that church's lives, this is what these prophets do. I'm just going to expose y'all, all y'all that do it, okay? This is what they do. They get up, they be sitting down looking at the Facebook feed, and they don't look at past lives from that church and who commented. And then they look and they clicking on people to see if you at church that night. And then when they get up, they'll say, who in here named Vicki? Well, they done saw Vicki on the last live, right? They know who Vicki— what Vicki looks like because she's got a Facebook profile. But you can't go crazy over that because the Bible says we prophesy in part. Are y'all hearing this? So that means we don't see the whole picture. Okay, God prophesies in part because he wants you to have faith. That's why he doesn't tell you everything. So you don't reveal everything so you can walk the prophecy out in faith. It's only to stir you to action toward a vision that the prophet sees. Not to give you your personal information. I don't care. I know I got it from there. I was talking about being moved with compassion. I understand. Oh my God, I've seen prophets. My God, somebody bring a check, put in an offering, and they done glanced over the name of the check. And step away from the basket, call the name. The name on the chain. Now they don't do that in, in my meetings because people know I'm crazy. I'm gonna correct you right there because you can't let people do that to your people because that's manipulation. That's the spirit of witchcraft. Are y'all hearing this? And when this is happening, it's witchcraft. It's sorcery. It's a form of sorcery to cause you to believe a lie, because that person really didn't know that, right? Prophecy should edify. It should build you up. It should foretell where you're going. It should— oh my God— it should align with kingdom purpose. It's an assignment to be brought to pass. So watch this, if you move with compassion and you walk in compassion, you'll find yourself meeting people that God will give you a word for about things you couldn't have known anything about. And because they're a sinner, God will let you speak to them in that way. So your light is shining and you bringing glory to him through your good works. It ain't good works if we corrupt it and taint it with ourself and our flesh. Let's keep the works good, amen. Cuz watch this, God can do this better than us on any day. Amen. Say any day. Any day. Lord, I thank you. I give you glory. Hashem tabai. Here's the last one. Say, I'm a servant. Say, I'm not competitive. Say, I'm full of compassion. Here's the last one. Service reinforces covenant. When you're serving it, you can see the covenant promises of God come to pass in your life. You can see the promises that he said that he made to you, he's going to do. You will actually handle them and see them with your own eyes when you operate as a servant, when you dismiss yourself and make it about him and not about you. Say this with me: I'm assigned, I'm assigned to shine, to shine. Everybody stand. I'm done. I pray you learned something today. Amen. Well, if you did shout about it! Give God some praise! Come on, shout about it! Give Lord praise on this— Come on, clap those hands and tell the Lord thank you. Come on, thank him for the victory. Come on, thank him for Next level glory. I know I spoke it over him, but I declare next level glory over your life. I declare next level glory over your finances. Next level glory in your marriage, in your home. Next level glory in your profession, in your business. Come on, open your mouth and shout about next level glory. Next level glory. That's a glory that supersedes circumstance. It's a glory that releases favor. It's a glory that releases mercy, blessing, and illumination. The blessing of the Lord that makes rich is in next level glory. I dare somebody shout for next level glory! Vicky, I heard the Lord say by February, shabakutu shabaya, he says, start because of your obedience, because of alignment, because of your trust in him. He said to tell you by February, get time out, I'm giving you a fresh start. And the dreams and visions that he's given you, he said they will begin to be launched by February. He said start looking for the building. I've already provided the funding. I've already provided the money. And by February, you shall see a manifestation of my promise. In the mighty name of Jesus, we bless you, God. Hey, somebody shouting here! We glorify your name, we glorify your name, God. Hey, Shabba, come, come, come, come quickly. Shere, come, come. I see you. Give you praise, God. This birthday, this birthday you just had, God said, I'm catapulting you now into a dimension where all things will be well. Hear me. From this day forward. God said, I'm making all things well. And he said, this birthday has entered you into the greatest days of your life. He said he's going to catch you up. And all of the things that seemingly got hard and tough and the times you want want to quit and give up. But God says this birthday, it's a birthday of heights, it's a birthday of dimensions, it's a birthday of atmospheres. And God said there's new atmospheres I'm shifting in your life, I'm shifting in your ministry. And God said you're gonna walk with boldness and authority, and those that don't want to receive you, they They will have to receive you. They will open their hearts and their minds to receive you. And God says there are many that's still trying to hold your past against you. God said that's over. And I remove every dagger. Every dagger that— where you loved and they stabbed you in the back, where you meant well and they stabbed you in the back. But this, daughter, is your season of healing. It's your season of breakout. Shariah's mom, come here, Mama. Come here, Mama. Come here, Mama, real quick. Come on. The Lord told me to tell you your little in stature, but you're big in his power. And there is an anointing that in your latter years God wants to release in your life that has never been seen before. And God said the time has come, and God said you're about to see what you've been praying for. And there's some things you've had on the altar for several years concerning your finances, concerning your family. And God said, this is the season now where it is about to show itself alive. He said, the things you've asked me for, I'm about to do. He said, tell my daughter, son, I have not forgotten about her. And tell her, for as much as I know. He said her labor is not in vain. And God says he's about to take the sweat— all this hard work you do— God said he's about to take the sweat out of your work. And we give you glory, God. And we give you honor. And we give you praise. Thank you for your vessel. Thank you for your service. He said you'll be one of those that'll be in public and you'll begin to speak the word, and just because you're talking and have a conversation, the light will shine through you, and people that you don't even know will get saved, get born again. But God said, but this is who you are. You are a holy evangelist. That he's going to use and get glory. Many, God said, will be turned to righteousness in your latter days, said the Lord. So God said witness, God said testify. Oh, oh. We bless you, God. Come on, the worshipers are worshiping. The worshipers are worshiping. Thank you, Jesus. Jesus. Thank you, Jesus. Come, come, come to go real quick. I got to obey God in this moment. I got to obey God. Lift your heads up. God said tell you eyes have never seen. He said tell your ears haven't heard, to remind you of the Scripture of the good things that he has prepared for you. While many have second-guessed you in the past and wrote you off, and many now don't even believe you're serious, but God said with the same eyes that they watched you strong. With the same eyes that they watched you cry, he said, Michael Taylor, with the same eyes that they watch you go through your transformation, he said he's gonna make them watch you come out, watch you go higher, watch you be the blessing to your people that you assigned to. And God said that he's gonna get the glory. And he told me to tell you, when you take this trip, when you go over here with the team, he said you're gonna be like a John the Baptist. It won't be just the second time when you come back. I hear that, God. God said when you go this first time, ministry will begin then. You're going to do business things for the trip, but God said the ministry will start happening immediately. And God said many are going to be changed, and he's going to speak to you wise strategies. And God said you have now stepped into a realm where many don't want this office, but it is one of the fivefold ministry gifts of an evangelist. And just like Billy Graham won many to God, God said to tell you, you'll win many to him. There shall be a season in your ministry where conference rooms and large venues will be packed out to hear your voice. And God said As long as you stay with him and keep giving him the glory, he'll keep saving souls under the sound of your voice. Father, I thank you for this daughter. I stir the evangelist. I stir the evangelist. And Father, the mantle of Billy Graham is still in the earth. The mantle of R.W. Schambach is still in the earth. May she catch the mantle. And then, oh, and as Billy Graham won millions to Christ and won presidents to Christ, may Nicole win many to you, oh God. And we bless you for— in the mighty name of Jesus. Glory to God. Yahusha. We bless you, Lord. Hallelujah. Lift those hands up, everybody, and worship the name of Jesus. What a great King we serve. What a mighty God we serve. Hallelujah. Come on, the worshipers of worship. I love you. I love you. I belong today because you came for me in such a special way. That's why I praise you, I lift you up, I lift you And I magnify your name.

I made a plan to come back. Yeah, but we talking about permanent. You need— I hope you've been looking at houses while you here. Praise Praise God. Y'all give her a hand. Praise God. Another brother, God bless you, sir. Thank you for coming and your guest in town. Thank you so much. You got something you want to share? Are you okay? I don't want to put you on the spot. You got something to share? Yeah, yeah, go. Um, well, thank you for the word, but, um Well, I've been sitting here, when I first got here, I saw expansion for you. And I saw a lot of young men coming. And it was humbling enough, and I just saw them begin to build the house, that God is just going to begin to send you young men to help you build. And where it would have seemed small to others, has been something great in God's hand. And it's like you gave the word Words of the code. You haven't seen nothing yet. You haven't heard anything what God is about to do. And in less than a year, you're going to just start to see the faith coming. I receive Jesus. I receive. Thank you, sir. I receive that. Glory to God. So we're going— y'all, y'all going to help me before we go sing Happy Birthday to Sheree. And Mama, since you're leaving Tuesday and it's Shari's birthday, I'm going to take you out there after church. So let's sing Happy Birthday. Come on, First Lady.
Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Shari. Happy birthday to you. Y'all keep standing with all.
Father, we thank you for this service. Thank you for what you've done. Thank you for every word uttered and even the prophecy released by the young man. We receive it in the name of Jesus. It's only confirmation to what you've already shown us you're about to do. And so, Father, we thank you for the young men. We thank you for the families. Even we thank you by adding to this church daily such as would be saved. And we bless you for that. Thank you for every family connected to this church, every person here and that's not. And we pray God, that our best days are still ahead. And we glorify you now. As we leave this place, may we be a light unto the world, a city that sit on a hill that cannot be hid. In Jesus' name, amen. And amen. Hug somebody, tell them you love them. Wait, I didn't give the announcements. Y'all just hold on one second. I'm sorry, I've been drunk since I came to church. I can't— I I came to church drunk because I spent some time with the Lord before I got— I didn't drink Hennessy, I was drunk in the spirit. Okay, so stay with me. Few announcements. Don't forget to fast with us on Tuesday. Tuesday morning we have prayer at 5 AM. Uh, we're online, please make sure you tap into prayer at 5 AM on Tuesday. Uh, the Lord meets us in prayer. We stream live over YouTube and Facebook every Tuesday morning at 5. On Thursday, we're here in the sanctuary in person. You never know who's going to come to the church on Thursday, so it's good that we be in the house. We had a visitor Thursday, and it was just a few of us, but we, we did what we had to do. Amen. So let's make our— let's make sure we make plans to be in the house of the Lord on Thursday. But then at the end of the month, somebody say the end of the End of the month. Please say it again. End of the month. We're having what is called Soul Winners Weekend, and this series is strategic toward that end. God said to me, and when I was in Florida a few weeks ago, he said, son, the church must get back to minding my business, minding the business of souls. And so he led me to put together this weekend. Would be a weekend begin a great training us to operate in those signs, to find those clues, to do the things we're teaching about. So starting on that Friday night, which is the 29th, that Saturday we're gonna have two sessions that morning at 10 and 11. We're going to feed you lunch free. Then we're going to come back Saturday night at 6 and have another session, and then Sunday morning at 9, and we're going to close out that Sunday night at 6 o'clock. Somebody said, that's 5 services, Apostle. Y'all could not go to church with me when I came up. I was in church every day. Sunday school, morning worship, Sunday night service. No, I forgot YBWW. So we have 5 services on Sunday, then we're back for Monday night prayer. Tuesday night teaching, Wednesday night Bible study, Thursday night rehearsal, Friday night deliverance service, Saturday evangelism. Then we did it again on Sunday. I'm just asking y'all to spend a weekend learning how to win souls. So please register, it's free. Again, we're gonna feed you. Um, my cousin Tanya is one of the best caterers on the planet. Head. So she's going to make sure we have good food. Glory to the name of God. And, uh, you guys be able to eat after those two sessions. So please come learn how to win souls. Come learn how to be that ambassador that God has called you to be. I love y'all. You're dismissed.
