Dominion & Increase | The Mystery of Dominon, Part 14 | Dr. Mike Woods, Sr. | 8 Mar 26

—of all the glory and honor. You're worthy, Lord, of all my praise. You're worthy, Lord, of all the honor. You're worthy, Lord, of all our praise. Lord, you're worthy, Lord, of all the honor. It's because of who you are, Lord. Yes, it's all because of who you are. Oh yeah. We surrender it all to you Jesus! We surrender it all to your love! We surrender it all to you Jesus! We surrender it all to your love! We surrender it all to you Jesus! We surrender it all to you Lord— We surrender it all to you, Jesus. Hallelujah to your name, Jesus. Glory to your name, Jesus.

Hallelujah to your name. If you got two feet I need you to stand.

Glory to God.

Glory to God. Thank you, Jesus. Glorify you.

I'll say this again.

You are mighty and awesome.

Every time we come in this place, worship needs to be achieved.

It can't happen if we act like spectators.

We came to engage him. I don't like what I felt when I walked in here.

This is not who we are.

Shabba to sikata. God can't trust us with more because he's trusting us to build a foundation, to erect a culture where he can manifest. I was glad when they said unto me, let us go into the house of the Lord. I don't know how y'all got out the bed this morning. Glory to God. But you should have got up glad, and you should have been excited to go to the house of the Lord. People make all kind of excuses as to why they can't go to the house of the Lord, but I was glad when they said to me, let us go to the house of the Lord. Now I need just— if you don't feel like worshiping, I understand.

Just, just, that's you.

But if you really need something from God today, I need you to open your mouth and begin to cry out to God. Worship is demonstrative. Worship is not dry. Worship is not dead.

It's filled with fire that comes from a fire-filled—

excited about I'm telling you, we don't get this right, y'all will get me every Sunday. No worship team, no singing. Glory to God, we'll come and go right in. Glory to God, because this is what it's about.

We need to touch him.

Come on, open up your mouth.

Demonstrative. That's Jerry. No music, you worship too. Come on, open your mouth. We don't need no props today. Open your mouth. What do you need from God? How bad do you want it? It's about him. Sh— them that hunger and thirst after righteousness shall be filled. You got to get a hunger for God. You got to get a hunger for him. We come against religion. We come against tradition. We come against every hindering spirit that will hinder our worship. God lift lift every burden and destroy every yoke this morning. Satan, you're a liar. You won't steal our joy. You won't steal our peace. You won't steal our fire. You won't steal our expression toward God. We plead the blood. The blood is a kinksheew. The blood The blood! The blood! The blood! The blood! The blood! The blood of your children! The blood off your house! The blood against every attack against your mind! The blood of Jesus! We stand in victory. The blood, the blood. We plead the blood, we plead The blood, the blood, the blood, the blood, the blood, the blood against sickness in your body. The blood over your finances. The blood. Benz. Everything about Jesus is redemptive, is rescuing. The blood come and get us. The blood rescue us. The blood deliver us. The blood heal us. The blood prosper us. The blood increase us. The blood, the blood, the blood. How dare you bring your weak into the house? You serve a God that's able. You serve a God that never lose, that is never defeated, and we plead the blood over everything you've endured this week, over every challenge, over every burden. And we declare this week will be a new day. It will be a new week of release and authority and influence and power. We plead the blood over yesterday. Satan, the blood be against you. Satan, the blood be against you. Get your hands off our children. Get your hands off our homes. Get your hands out of our Satan, get your hands off our business. Get your hands out of our affairs. Oh, get your hands out of our community and our nation. The blood.

The blood break every soul tie. The blood break every curse.

The blood cast the devil out of the mind. The blood break down lust. The blood break down fornication. The blood break perversion. The blood of Jesus The blood purges infirmity. The blood break every addiction. Every pornographic addiction, every drug addiction, every alcohol addiction, every nicotine addiction, I command it to be broke. Every sexual addiction, I command it to be broken in the name of Jesus. By the blood, by the blood. It reaches to the highest mountain, it flows to the lowest valley. The blood that gives us strength from day to day, it will never lose its power. We bind up every historical demon and every ancient spirit that will war against our future. We serve notice on you. You have no place in our life. We plead the blood over every generational curse, over And every ancestral demon that comes after our future, we declare every failure of our past is washed in the blood. The blood over slothfulness and laziness and lack of discipline. The blood, the blood over disobedience.

The blood of our church, the blood of our vision. We declare that nothing from yesterday will stop the manifestation of what you've ordained us to do.

Not death, not past failure, not lies, not refutes from yesterday, no witch, no warlock. We plead the blood over every warlock and every witch, and we declare them defeated and dead in the name of Jesus. The blood over every gossiping tongue. The blood over the carnal mind.

May we walk in the Spirit, that we not fulfill the lust of the flesh. Oh devil, I got time for you today.

I declare you won't win this fight. I declare you're already defeated. I declare you're powerless. You're weak. You are a liar and there's no truth in you. Your delusions, your deception, your lies, they will not work. The blood of Jesus is against you.

The blood over our marriages.

I plead the blood over every marriage in this room and every marriage watching me live. I declare that divorce is not an option. Separation is not an option. I declare that every demonic force warring against your covenant, that it has to die in the name of Jesus. I I declare that every demon that's stopping the intimacy in your house, that's stopping oneness and unity in your house, I plead the blood.

I plead the blood over the life of every single person. Demanda kasia. And I declare the soul ties from the past are broken now. I command the bands, the yokes of bondage that comes from past sin.

I declare that they are covered in the blood now.

And that freedom and liberty is occurring now in the name of Jesus. And I declare that for every woman, you will cause her husband to begin to intercede now, and that they will find them in the spirit.

And I declare that every single woman will hide in the realm of the spirit so they might be found by interceding man, a praying man. And I plead the blood against counterfeits and distractions that will show up in their life that are not designed for long-term covenant, in the name of Jesus.

And I decree and declare that we are victorious. I decree and declare that we are winners. I declare we are more than conquerors.

I declare we are more than a conqueror. Which means we can never be defeated, we can never be conquered, we can never lose, because in you, God, and through your love, we are more— we are more than conquerors.

Come on, fill this room with your voice. If you're more than a conqueror, fill the room with your voice. Come on, open your mouth. Like, out of the mouth of babes and sucklings, he has ordained strength. Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings, he has ordained perfect praise.

Open up your mouth.

Father, we thank you for the victory.

We thank you for the victory. We thank you for the victory. Oh God, we thank you for the victory.

Leba satatama. Come on, open your mouth and tell him thank you. We thank you for the victory. Shekatatama. Oh, give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good.

Le tabaman tatabayah. If you know he's good, let— and everything Everything that is contrary to his will is defeated and under the blood. Clap your hands and open your mouth and tell God thank you. Come on, we clap our hands this morning and we say thank you, Lord. I heard you, God. He said if you thank him long enough, he'll meet you in the thank you. I heard that, God. He said if you you thank him long enough, he'll meet you in the thank you. Somebody with your dead self did hear it. He said if you thank him long enough, he'll mash up, he'll meet you in the thank you. Come on, open your mouth. I declare I will not pastor a dead church. I will not pastor a dead people. I will not pastor a people that don't have praise on Lips that don't have thanksgiving in their mouth, it is not the will of God. It is robbery from the enemy. Open your mouth. I'll take me and 2 praisers over 2,000 dead folk who don't know how to give God glory. I talk— give me a praiser that can move mountains. Give me a worshiper that can invoke the presence. Give me a grateful person that understands if it had not been for the Lord that was on your side. Oh God, I know I'm here because of him. I know I'm breathing. I should have been dead a long time ago, but thanks be to God.

Ketama. He said if you thank him long enough— y'all still didn't get it—

he said he'll meet you in the thank you. I didn't say Michael Woods would meet you.

I said he'll meet you. I didn't say Jakes would meet you.

I said he'll meet you. I didn't say Obama would meet you. He said, but if you thank him long enough, he'll meet you in the thank you. What do you need God to do? The secret this morning is in your thank you. Open your mouth. You've been tricked if you think you can move God without noise. Yatabasata tabaya. Noise moves heaven. When the Holy Ghost came, there was a sound from heaven. Shabakatatabaya. How you gonna go to heaven and you ain't comfortable with sound? There's fire burning at the altar. Thank you, Lord.

Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus.

Thank you, Jesus.

Thank you, Lord. You've been good to us, God, and we say thank you. You've been kind to us, Lord, and we say thank you. Father, just give me you. Nothing else matters. It's you I want. It's you I desire.

It's you I need, God.

And I thank you, God. I say thank you, Lord. I say thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Let him meet you and thank you. His hair's done. Is just as powerful as his will do. Shabaka lamanda do bosaya. Ke laba mande de diya sikia. Hatamando sai. His has done is just as powerful as his will do.

Thank him for what he's already done and thank him in advance for what he's gonna do.

Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Jesus.

Thank you, Lord.

My soul say thank you.

My heart say thank you, Lord.

I'm grateful for who you are.

Thank you, Lord.

You have to learn to press past your circumstance and give God what belongs to him. He's worthy when we're not. I'll say that again. He's worthy when we're not worthy.

We give you glory, God. We give you honor.

We supplement you, Jesus.

We macrograph you. We extol you and we lift you up. You're good and you're good all the time.

We bless your name, wonderful Savior, mighty God.

Shakin dididi ni andaba so. We say thank you, Lord. I love you, Jesus.

Just give me you.

Everything else can wait. Thank you for your very presence. Bless your name. Bless your name, Jesus. We love you and we adore you. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Oh, I just want You, Lord.

Thank you, Lord. Thank you. We say thank you, Lord.

You, Lord. Shema. Thank you, you, you Lord. I just want to thank you. Lift those hands everybody and just begin to open your mouth and thank him. He's a worthy God. He's a worthy God. Oh, give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good. Thank you, God. Thank you for your very presence. Zion is calling us to a higher place of worship. It's a higher place of worship. Okay, tabande kosi. And that has nothing to do with what we sing, what we do. It's a heart issue. He's calling us higher. He's calling us to himself. You can play, Pastor. He's calling us to a deeper dimension. He's pulling us where we never been. This season will require a deeper level of sacrifice in prayer, in worship, in encounters with him.

The Lord say, I'm trusting you with more. The Lord says, I'm trusting you to create a model that can be imitated, not that's duplicated based on something in the past. Where I'm taking you has nothing to do with where you've been. He says, hear me, where I'm taking you has nothing to do with where you've been. It worked yesterday, but it won't work now. For God said, the revival I am bringing It's for a different season, a different time, a different mindset, a different people. And you must be launched into a depth of power and fire that will consume the environments that you walk into. For I, the Lord, am your consuming fire. And yesterday's flow, yesterday's plow, yesterday's prayer It will not work for this time, saith God, mimicking what you've seen in the past and even the mimickers that you see now. I say unto you, I'm creating a new sound that will come from the hearts of my people that will unlock the heavens And sinners will be drawn and sinners will be converted. For the hour has come for harvest. For the church have built models that have only recycled people that already know me. For I say unto you, there is a world waiting for you. The earnest expectation of the creation waits for your new look, your new sound, your new dimension, your new fire, your new flow. For many of those that call my name, I say unto you, they have missed it. They have missed it. They have missed it. And I say to you, you cannot be like them. I'll close you down. I'll stop your movement before I allow you to abort what I trusted you with. Mm. The Lord say to you, you must be unique. You must be apostolically authentic. What you must do has never been done. If I've called you to be dominators— dominators are creators— and you shall create like I create. And because of your obedience, many will be turned to righteousness. For this is my agenda, said God, to that sinners be converted, that cities and nations be transformed, and that real revival will break out that will draw those that do not know me to the cross, and they will experience like you have. The power of my blood.

And when this happens, the world as you know it will never be the same, says the Lord.

Well, somebody ought to praise him for greater responsibility. Oh God, I don't know if you heard, but this is what caught me when that word was coming out of me. I can't even pause in my tracks when I said it. The Lord said he will shut us down before he allows us to be cheap copies of yesterday, antiquated duplications of historical movements. What he's doing in us is different It is unique. And it— did you hear this part? It has never been done. So we're being trusted to erect a model, not just in the physical realm, but in the realm of the spirit first, because vision is manifested in prayer first, in people second, and in property third, in that order. In the past, people have erected buildings and things that they built to themselves, and the building, the facilities were the legacy. That's not what God is calling us to do. We must leave a legacy of prayer, of power, of worship, a perspective of God that the world has not embraced and even the church has never experienced.

Hallelujah. Father, bless your word today. Thank you for the light, the illumination, and the intelligence of the Holy Ghost. Have your way. Do something unusual. You've already done that. Continue to do unusual things that man cannot do.

Touch every person in this room with fresh revelation. We pray for the wisdom—

glory to God— to to apply the revelation we receive. And Father, we thank you now that we shall move in your promise of dominion, and the world shall not be the same because we live. And we praise you for it now, in Jesus' name.

Amen.

Would you clap your hands and give God praise?

Come on, y'all can do better than that.

Glory to God. Hallelujah, hallelujah. Thank you, Jesus.

God is good.

Glory to God. We bless him. What a mighty God he is. Angels bow before him. The old song said heaven and earth adore him. He's a mighty God. Hallelujah. We bless your name. All right, I'm going to get into this this morning. And I pray y'all are well. You lost an hour's sleep and, uh, it reflected in how y'all acted when you got here. All right, glory to God, we give God praise. But I think we all right now. Y'all good? Thank you, Jesus. All right, glory to God. All right, this is Nicole, do me a favor if you can help me with these slides. I appreciate you, woman of God. Oh, this is chapter 14, part 14 of The Mystery of Dominion. I believe this is going to be my second book. This Apostolic Dimension is coming out this year, but I think, um, glory to God, This is gonna be my second book. Are y'all here? Say the mystery of dominion. Glory to God, part 14. And this morning we're going to talk about dominion and increase. Hit play. Play. Glory to God. There you go. Thank you, Jesus. God is here. I'm gonna attempt to teach this. I'm real drunk right now. Glory to God, glory to God. Pastor Jeffrey, I don't know what happened right there, but fix that TV for me please. I don't know what's going on, so I can see.

Somebody say dominion and increase.

My emphasis this morning is going to be on the word increase. And how it relates to dominion and how it's necessary. I'm giving you this up front, glory to God, so that if you don't want to hear about increase, glory to God, you can kind of fake tune it out right now. Or, you know, if you want to go and say, I don't want to hear that, that's fine. But you cannot have dominion without it. Okay, say, look, I can't take dominion without it. Glory to God. You got to have increase.

All right, let's go to 1 Corinthians.

Let's read this verse. Glory to God. 1 Corinthians 3, verses 5 through 8, is what I'm going to read.

The Bible says this, it says, who then is Paul and who is Apollos but ministers through whom you believed? I'm gonna read that again. He says, who is Paul? Who is Apollos? This is important to where we're going today. But ministers through whom you believed, as the Lord gave each— gave to each one. Verse 6, he says, I planted— we're gonna— I'm not gonna execute these now, we're gonna come back to them. He said, I planted 'Cause God doesn't plant. Why don't you hear that? Okay, God doesn't plant things. From the beginning, he never planted anything. He gave Adam and Eve seed. He never planted a thing. Are y'all hearing this? Okay, here we go. He says, I planted, Apollo's watered. Wait a minute, God doesn't water. God ain't in heaven with the hoes. Here's what God does: but God gives the increase. So increase is the duty of God, but he cannot increase if there has not been a previous planting. And watering.

We'll get to that.

He says, so then neither he who plants is anything.

Oh boy.

So again, back to the first question: who is Paul? Who is Apollos? They're just servants that God used so he can get the result of the planting and the watering. He says, this is so good, he that plants isn't anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives increase. Verse 8, now he who plants and he who waters— here we go, I love this part—

are one.

I love this.

He said they're one, and each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor.

So far the scripture.

So let's start with this.

Nicole already has it up there. Uh, God gave me this probably in— Michael Jr. was born in '96. I looked at him when he was 1 and I said, Lord, I gotta take care of this boy. He's my firstborn. I said, God, I gotta— you gotta tell me how to take care of this boy. And this is what he said.

He said, check your environment. And he said, if something is not increasing you, it will ultimately decrease you. He said, if you really want to take care of your son, you got to surround yourself with people and cultures that increase. 'Cause if you're by default in the wrong place and with the wrong people— see how this ties together? We've been teaching this for a while, place and people and person. If you're in the wrong place, ultimately it may look like it's increasing you, but ultimately it's only going to make you worse. There are some people who are stuck The Holy Spirit began to plead the blood against soul ties. Soul is your mind, your will, and your emotions. So a soul tie doesn't happen just because you have sex with a person. There are some people who are soul tied to a church, soul tied to a leader, family members. Are y'all hearing this? You got— you have to understand that thing is going to ultimately bring you down. And we feel like we have to be loyal to people just because they got our last name. Jesus said, who is my mama? Y'all ain't got to talk to me here. Who is my father? I know that's a little hard. Who is my sister, my brother? Them that do the will of God. In other words, them that gonna bring increase into my life. Y'all hear me? With that said, that means you always— if you're gonna be a person of dominion, write this down because I don't think I got this in the notes, but write it down. If you're gonna be a person of dominion, one, increase is non-negotiable. And secondly, hear this, You need— always need a person in your life that knows more about what you're trying to dominate than you do. See, if you are doing something, you think you know everything and you refuse to listen. I was on the phone last night for an hour with Apostle Lamorris. He called me and said, 'Apostle, the Lord told me to tell you something about what you're getting ready to do with your vision,' because he saw what we was talking about when he was here. You know what I did? I set an hour and listened to him, because when he— the Holy Spirit said, 'What he's about to tell you is wisdom.' And so he started pouring that wisdom on me, and I was like like, yeah, God, that's just what I needed. But the bottom of that, like, oh no, he ain't caring what I'm caring about. That's craziness. There are no people in the body that are not necessary to one another.

Are y'all hearing this?

We are co-laborers, so we need each other. And from one apostle to another, I was able to humble myself and receive wisdom that would increase me, because he knew something I didn't know. Are y'all hearing this? You need people around you that know what you don't, but you first got to get off this horse that you know everything. And you got a monopoly on how it should be done. Okay, maybe I'm not in the right church this morning. You gotta align yourself with people you're willing to listen to instead of being around folk and tied into folk all the time that never edify you. Never build you up.

Let me, let me throw this on you.

If you're the smartest person in your life, you need a new circle. Are y'all hearing this? Okay, if you're the most intelligent person in the room, you need to get in another room. Okay, all right, you're in the wrong room. You need to make sure you find— as with all the grace that God has given— I call it grace because I'm not as smart as people think. God has graced me with wisdom. And what I do is, though I'm a great learner, I stay in rooms where people are smarter than me. I spend most of my day learning. Most of my work is learning. Are y'all hearing this? Stay right there. And so I want to go back to—

and it's funny that the Holy Spirit had me share my conversation because I wasn't really going to share that with Apostle Morris, but this point he brought up when he was teaching.

And y'all know I'm a student, I'm a forever student, so I'm gonna just leave it at what he said. I said, he said farmers go in debt to buy seed. There can be no increase without seed. They understand their business will not work unless they have the seed. Now watch this, I start digging in that thing. So I found out that the U.S. farm debt has hit a record high of $560 billion and will increase to $625 billion in 2026. So farmers will borrow $625 billion for seed. But watch this, that $625 billion produces $60 trillion in revenue.

See, I'm just—

I had to dive in that thing because I'm like, that's deep. Because guess what? Let me tell you something about a seed. If you hold one in your hand, it don't look like nothing. It's little, don't look like it produce nothing. It's hard. It don't look like it got no life in it. It just looked like it's worthless. You know what you can do to pleasure yourself with $560 billion? Are y'all hearing this? But the farmers say no, we're not going— we're going to sacrifice ourselves so we can create legacy for our families so that we can feed the world. Are y'all hearing that? See, if they didn't do that, many of us wouldn't eat. Okay, so understanding that about seed, at eyes view, it's not attractive. It doesn't look like it has potency.

Potency and power, but it does.

It doesn't mirror what it will produce. Uh, apple seed is a little black seed, but it produces a beautiful red apple. Can I submit to you— so let me help your mind right quick.

This message is not about money.

Me. This message is about you as a seed. Are you here? Jesus had the first revelation the farmers had, and he laid down his life. The Bible said, except a seed fall to the ground and die, it cannot— I feel the anointing here— it cannot produce So Jesus said, I gotta go to earth to sow myself as a seed.

Glory to God!

So that I can produce a Michael Woods, so I can produce an Asia Wheeler, so I can produce a Shannon Taylor and a Vicki Lumpkin, so I can produce a Tanya Kirby, so I can produce a Mother Diane.

I gotta go and sow myself You couldn't—

he— listen, you couldn't even phantom the idea that he gave his life physically, much more than the farmers do. But this principle is the same.

Watch this.

So that he can produce seed in us.

Oh God.

So we can sow and bring forth harvest out of our life and help the world, man.

Are y'all here? Okay, so we gotta make up our mind then that we're gonna become the seed, even though it's not as attractive as it is gonna look when the harvest comes forth. You gotta decide, because again, you can't see that apple, you can't see that orange, you can't see that grapefruit and that corn. But you know, if you ever go to a seed store, they got packs of seeds, and what they do, they put on the front of the seed a picture of what it looks like after you planted. You need to pray long enough so God will give you a picture of what you gonna look like when you emerge from this planting.

We're gonna get where we need to be.

Okay, all right, so here's some impediments to increase and your seed coming up.

Just keep going, just keep going past that.

We don't read it. Impediments to increase. Say this, say, in the name of Jesus, I will not be hindered from coming forth as the harvest God planted me in the earth to become. Now watch this. I, I, I want to hit this before I hit that first point. Your human life— you didn't look like you look now when your daddy released you into your mama's body. Y'all ain't got to talk to me here. Hey, you ain't see no resemblance even in that little ultrasound day. Show you that you see the form, but you don't look like— you don't look like you look now. Are y'all hearing this? You were a seed and you're living in the harvest of who you are. Now here's some impediments to your increase. You cannot increase and your progress breaks down when your external reach is greater than your internal capacity. I'm gonna say that again. You cannot increase, and your progress breaks down when your external reach is greater than your internal capacity. Your internal capacity is determined by what's inside of the sea. An apple seed will never produce an orange.

Are y'all hearing this?

A seed that brings forth— hear me, glory to God— trees will never produce cherries. Inside of the seed In the seed's DNA, it's already designed what it should become. This is why you cannot afford to try to be somebody else. And we live in a world now, Apostle, where everybody's reaching, trying to duplicate and be somebody else. You know, I've determined at 56 years old there ain't gonna be another Michael Woods, so I might as well be the best Michael Woods I could possibly be, flaws and all, problems and all.

Y'all ain't got to talk to me here. And you got to make up in your mind, regardless to— hallelujah— what the situation looks like now, you're in seed form and you got to decide, I'm gonna be the very best me. Stop trying to reach for stuff you're not designed to handle.

'Cause you've seen the man of the street do it, or the man down the street do it, or you seen your best Facebook buddy do it. You got to make up in your mind, I'm gonna do what God tells me to do. I prophesied Apostle Brandon. I told him, I said, when you release these first two books, the books are gonna start flowing like rivers. And he been writing books like rivers. I think he's at 5 now. He told me the other day there's 2 more coming after that. The reality is I don't have no desire to try to get in competition with that, because I know y'all ain't got to talk to me here, because birthing a book for me is a lot. Glory to the name of God. Because I got to make the time, you know, it's just a lot for me. Me. So I'm not gonna go past my internal capacity. One at a time. Are y'all hearing this? That's about all we can do unless God give us a grace to do more. But just because I see him, man, that's my son, he producing all these books, I need to catch up— the devil is a liar. Are y'all hearing this? I know what I'm supposed to be doing. I'm just trying to stop— let's stop reaching for stuff you can't handle. I was talking to a young man, we was playing golf yesterday.

He said, Apostle, I want you to counsel me and my fiancée because I'm getting ready to propose to her. So will you counsel us and marry us?

So I started talking about getting saved and make sure his life was—

man, you need to be in church, you need to get yourself together because you're gonna have to be a priest, provider, protector to this woman.

So we got another— and I began to share with him, you got to internally be ready to handle a wife. Are y'all here? I understand you could provide for her financially, but it's more than financial provision. I told myself, a husband needs to be number one, a priest. So you can have all the money in the world You need to be able to intercede for this woman. And the fact that she is a woman— oh, y'all, y'all not gonna talk to me here. You need to be able to intercede for yourself. Okay, yeah, that's for folk that don't live with a woman before. You better have a prayer life, brother. Are y'all hearing this? Glory to the name of God. It takes a grace. I love my wife, but it takes a grace. I have to pray all the time. So you got to make sure internally you're ready. Glory to God. So let's, let's make up our mind that we're not going to impede increase and progress by biting off more than we can chew. That's basically what that statement said. Let's go, next one. You cannot increase and your progress breaks down— glory to the name of God— when you stuck on what God said versus what God is saying. In other words, you're more preoccupied with history than you are destiny. Can I be honest with you? Some of the prophecies you got 10 years ago, 15 years ago, some people stuck on that word and it ain't came to pass. And it didn't come to pass because— not because the prophet was a false prophet. It didn't come to pass because you didn't meet the principle to bring the prophecy to pass. You can miss the season of a word. I know God said it, but you, you were living in disobedience when it was time for it to manifest, and you weren't in the right position to receive the blessing of the word. It don't mean God lied, it just means you were not operating in the principle. Let me just give you a basic example. A prophet tells you God wants to bless you with a debt-free house and a debt-free car in the next 60 days, but you refuse to tithe. Well, you just contradicted the manifestation of that word because you opened your life up to being cursed with a curse. Curse. And you— and the only way— the prophecy can't break that curse. Only thing that breaks that curse is obedience. So you can't get stuck on history. Like, the Lord just, just spoke to us and said, look, there's more for us. We can't erect old models and old systems. And I'm talking about in every regard.

Are you hearing this?

We gotta embrace the creatorial authority of God in our worship experience and in our lives. We got to get off of what God said, because if you didn't obey it back then and you— it didn't happen, 9 times out of 10 it won't.

I'm just— I'm sorry, don't kill the messenger.

I mean, for real, some prophecies you missed it. If the season comes back, great, but you're gonna be so stuck in history, it'll make you miss destiny. You'll miss the future trying to hold on to yesterday. Oh God. It's just like if you marry somebody and God told you that was your husband or your wife, but that person leaves you. Okay, God said it, you married them, but they left. They told you they was going to get a loaf of bread and they ain't been back in 10 years. They ain't coming back, so you might as well accept the fact that they're gone and move on with your life. There's some people can't love again, can't embrace nobody else because, well, God said that was my husband, but he gone. He done got him a new family with somebody else. You might ought to do the same thing. Are y'all hearing this?

Y'all don't like that one.

Okay, let's go to the next one. Number 3: you cannot increase and your progress breaks down when you expend your energy on fruitlessness. You're never gonna increase wasting— because you're, you're defeating the watering process. We're gonna get into this, but this reality is when you're around fruitlessness, nothing is moving, nothing is progressing. You're around fruitless people who don't want nothing, don't want to be nothing, don't want to go nowhere, don't have no dream, don't have no vision. You are never going to increase because they don't want it. They will influence you.

You.

Hear me. Before you influence them, the evidence is how long you've been locked into it. They ain't followed you yet, but you still there. Oh y'all, you try— been trying to get this dream to work, get your vision on, and they just don't want nothing. Are y'all hearing this? This is hard, but it's real, because fruitfulness is the result of seed. Fruitfulness is increase. But when you have people who are taking your energy away from the planting and the watering process— oh boy, you gotta let that go.

John 15 says, any branch in me that bear not fruit, I take it away.

So if it ain't bringing forth fruit, you need to get rid of it. Back to— if something not increasing you, ultimately decrease you. If it's not bringing forth fruit, you need to cut it off. You need to purge the vine. Listen to what God says carefully. He says, I cut it away so you can bring forth more fruit. In other words, you're not going to bring forth fruit as long as you're connected to this fruitless person, this fruitless idea, this fruitless thing. You're going to be fighting.

When— so I've been married my wife, what, 7 years this year? So in August it'll be 7 years. And I had about a year, 8 months before I proposed to her. I was divorced in a year, 8 months, proposed her. But I, I was saying to God, I don't want to connect to anybody. No matter how fine they are. Are y'all hearing this? How much money they got. My wife will tell you, it was a lady coming after me that was— her net worth, we know her, she's our friend, she probably watching. I mean, we, we friends.

I just couldn't marry her because he wasn't God. Her net worth was 500 million. We already have domes and everything now, but that wasn't God because I would have to blend into the identity.

Y'all ain't got to say nothing because the type of woman she is.

And I knew when I was talking to her, like, no, this ain't gonna work because I'm, I'm different. You're gonna have to be led. Are y'all hearing this? I don't care what your bank account say, you got to be led.

Okay, cuz I know women at the boardroom got Louboutins on at the meetings and all that stuff, and y'all doing your thing, your bosses, right? But you still have to have a man in your life if you get one that can lead you. Okay, that's That's another message for another day.

But this thing wouldn't have been fruitful. She had the money, but she wasn't for me. She didn't have the heart— that's not that she's a bad person— she didn't have the heart to align with where I was going. Are y'all hearing this? I'm just trying to show you, I walked away from $500 million. I'm just telling you, Felicia know it. When I met her, I was preaching at a women's conference. They— I was one of the only men speakers that my friend Lisa Nicole Cloud, who's a multimillionaire, was having.

Felicia went with me.

Room was full of women that were multimillionaires. I preached, prayed for people, women all on the floor, red bottoms in the air. Crazy, right? I mean, it was— the glory came through there, man. And I met this lady afterwards. She ran a pharmaceutical company in Fort Lauderdale.

She's since sold the company and she exited for more than $500 million.

And she moved to Atlanta, bought this ranch right around the corner from here in Locust Grove. And she had these retreats for women, all this stuff. But I know it just wouldn't fit. So you can't expend your energy on— so just because it appears fruitful, okay, so y'all understand why I'm telling this story. Don't mean it's fruitful. Watch this. Everything that's been good to you ain't good for you. There's a 40-year-old man that can be good to a 16-year-old girl, but he ain't good for her. Are y'all hearing this? He can pay her bills, put clothes on her back, and, and, and, and do— be perverted with her, but he's not good for her. Are y'all hearing this?

That's the devil, man.

So you cannot increase, and your progress breaks down when you expend your energy on fruitlessness. Let's go, keep— let's go on the go. Last one: you cannot increase and your progress breaks down when your comfort zone is a place of consistency. You got to kill the sin of familiarity. Some people have stopped fornicating, committing adultery, watching porn. I don't know why the Holy Ghost is on there today, but somebody live, you need to get off that computer. I'm telling right now, the Lord is going to expose you if you don't. Your wife is going to catch you. Listen, stop it in the name of Jesus.

Okay, yeah, that keeps coming up, man.

That, that's, that's, that's That's just like fornicating.

Okay, I'll say it again.

It's the same as fornicating. The word fornication is the word porne in Greek. It's where we get words like pornographic. Somebody say, I'm just watching it, I didn't do it. No, you did it. Jesus said if you look on a woman and you have lust in your heart, you've already done it. And listen, that's why when I was messing up, I was like, I ain't gonna just look at it, I'm gonna do it.

Are y'all hearing this?

If I'm gonna repent, I'm doing it. Look, y'all looking at me like y'all— okay, I'm just saying. So I thank God for deliverance that I don't look with lust. 'Cause that keeps you out of trouble. Are y'all hearing this? God, before I just repent for lusting after— what we gonna do that? Same repentance, same crime, same separation for God.

So I might as well enjoy it. Y'all ain't got to talk to me. Me here. Okay, this, this is a deep church today.

Okay, y'all just left heaven to come here.

I got you.

But you cannot stay in comfort and increase. You gotta get that comfort zone and destroy it. That familiar place, it's easy to do because you comfortable with it. You have to learn to take the risk of obedience. Are y'all hearing this? When God tells you to do something, it's always going to be bigger than you. Watch this. When you count on the cost, it's going to always be more than you got. The Bible said no man set his hand to the plow without first counting the cost. So I started on this project with this Rudder City and with this building around the corner. I started counting because I said that's way bigger than us. Us. Are y'all hearing this? But I understand I can't stay in comfort. I gotta move in what he's able to do. See, your comfort zone is easy because you are programmed carnally. Your carnality is constantly telling you you're going to be successful if you do it your way. You know why? Because you're familiar with your way and you've seen it work. But when you start operating in God's ways that you have never seen work— oh, y'all hearing this? Every time you have a success, you can celebrate your faith because now you've seen God do something without your assistance. Are y'all hearing this? Without your involvement, all he needed was your faith, your obedience. Because we'll lean on ourselves so much and we'll try to mix it. That's having mixture in your faith. We'll try to mix it with obedience. I'm only trust you this far.

Are y'all here? Okay, yeah, you got to get all the way in.

You cannot be consistently comfortable with fruitless people who have chicken minds. If you're an eagle, you can't run with chickens. Chicken environments can be comfortable because you like Kentucky Fried, you like Church's, you like Popeyes, you like Grandma Fried Chicken. Yeah, because it's easy, right? Right, man. I'd have had chicken every way. Balled, fried, baked, broiled, barbecue. Get tired of the chicken, scrape it off the bone, make salad. Are y'all hearing this? You got to break out of the chicken mentality and tap into Eagles.

Are y'all hearing me?

Because guess what? If you're hanging out with chickens, they're down here, you're here. You got to always condescend to hang out because they can't never get up there. They can only fly 3 to 5 feet at a time.

Are y'all hearing this?

So if you're gonna soar, you need eagles. Eagles goes back to you always need some people around that know what you don't know. You need some other eagles that have charted a path into the next place that you don't know about, and you can fly with them through to the next space.

Y'all here? All right, let's go.

Okay, so how do we get the through increase.

Let's go back to the scripture. No, go back. No, you was on the right place. Yeah, let's go right there.

Now, he that planted— he that planted anything is— now, so neither is he that planted anything, neither he that watereth, but God that gives the increase.

Go to verse 5. 5. Yeah, there we go.

Who then is Paul? We read this, right? Who is Apollos? I'm almost through, for real. But ministers by whom you believed. So let me tell you what Paul represents. Of course, Paul is an apostolic type. Are you hearing this? Apostles are important to increased because apostles carry kingdom economy inside of them. One of the ways you'll know you're connected to true apostolic authority is that your desire to expand— are you hearing this— economically will increase. Oh boy, if all an apostle is doing is building themself up, they really are not apostolic, because apostles are necessary to who you are. Watch this. And who is Apollos? Apollos was a master teacher. He wasn't an apostle. He was a teacher who was trained by Aquila and Priscilla. They taught him intellectually, not only about the scripture, about— but about things that pertain to the kingdom. When Apollos first got saved, he only taught eloquently about the baptism, and he knew about Paul's teaching about the Holy Ghost. But Aquila and Priscilla, who were wealthy, taught Apollos about the resources of the kingdom, and he became an eloquent teacher. On the matters of the kingdom of God and its economy. So this tell me you need an apostolic teacher collaborative in your life that you believe in.

So watch this, you ain't supposed to just believe in God. Oh boy, you gotta also believe in leadership.

Why would you sit under somebody that you don't believe in? There are servants by whom you believe— same word, pastuo—

that you have confidence in, that you take for granted, that you trust with your soul.

That you trust to give you what you need. Watch this. The Lord gave every man this. Now, while every man doesn't receive it nor believe it, he— the gift is there. Yeah. Are y'all hearing this? God has made this available. There are people that reject apostles. There are people that reject teachers. Especially about economy and kingdom advancement. Lord, we again, we just got told we could not use a facility, a venue, because we teach about kingdom provision.

Are y'all hearing this?

And, and tried to say it was out of line with the teachings of the late Billy Graham, and we can't use their venue because We teach about prosperity and provision, and we believe in the expression of the Holy Ghost.

The devil is a liar.

We will have a leadership retreat up there. We're going to give them money, but they told us, no, y'all can't come because of your expression of the Holy Spirit and your teachings on prosperity.

To him. He's sending to me.

But the reality is it's being rejected, not just by people like them worldwide, but God said the gift is available to every man.

Why? Go to the next verse, verse 6.

He says, I have planted— again, God doesn't plant— Apollo's water, God gives increase. So, apostles, here we go. Here's a vision even of this house to help you discover who you are, what seedbed is in you, to help you develop what's in you, and then to deploy you, plant you into the system of the world so God can bring the increase. If I just make you a good churchgoer, I have failed at my job. Are y'all hearing this? My job is not to make you an expert at church. Most church folk have mastered that. That's why I go so hard. To push you to him, because he's going to identify who you really are. Which brings me to the first point: you have to— and y'all ready? If you want to have dominion and increase, the first thing you got to do, you got to identify godly partnerships. You got to identify the apostolic voice in your life, or voices if you need multiple ones. You got to identify who Apollos is, who will teach you about how to prosper in your area of influence, because you need contact with each to get increase. Y'all see that in the verse? If you have not identified these partnerships, that maybe this is why increase has not happened. Or have you been rejecting the partnerships? Remember I talked about undecided people who can't make up their mind where they want to be, what they want to do? At the end of the day, I'm like this: reject me in the beginning, because rejection is direction. Don't lead me on. Y'all ain't talking to me here. And make me feel like you, you in my life, I'm in your life, and then all of a sudden, bam, you gone.

Gone.

Without warning, just don't see you no more. Are y'all hearing this? The— listen, the reality is you got to make up your mind where you will receive from. Where will you— who's going to plant you?

Who's going to water you after you're planted?

Because it's not enough to get the blessing and be deployed. You need to maintain it through proper watering. There's a, there's a flower out in the lobby of this church.

When they, when my wife first put it out there, I said, you know what, that, that's a real flower. It requires water. Some real flowers up here require water. I said, so we need to make sure that flower is watered because it's gonna die. A few times I done walked by and it was dying. And she'd be over there with water 4 days later, talking about we gonna resurrect it in Jesus.

He'd be pouring the water, oh, it's gonna come back, it's gonna come back. But watering has to be consistent. Are y'all hearing this? So after you are planted in who you are, you need somebody's gonna keep pouring, because apostolic men and apostolic teachers are also fathers. So a real father deliberately releases DNA, releases momentum, releases spiritual guidance, releases mentorship to help you do what you're called to do. They keep warn— keep stretching you. That's why being an Apostolic House, you're not going to be able to get comfortable with how you do things. Point in case this morning, you can't get comfortable right there. So the Holy Spirit will come in and just break it all up, because at the end of the day, he wants to break up your comfort because there's more. Because he says, I want to increase you.

Oh God, you got to let me water you. Yeah, let me plant you. Are y'all hearing this?

Okay, all right, say, I gotta identify godly partnerships. I'm gonna give you one thing on this: you cannot partner with people who think at low levels of influence. If you're trying to be influential You can't partner with folk that don't want no influence. They become an enemy to your impact.

Oh, y'all hearing this?

Here you is trying to make an impact, and the person you partner with always trying to talk you down.

That's too big.

You ain't got no money. You don't need that. You ain't got before people, but your vision is going to supply what is needed, especially if it came from God. Are y'all hearing this?

Oh boy, you can't fit a 16 by 20 idea in a 3x5 mind. I'mma let that marinate. You talking to folk, partnering with folk, their mind ain't big as yours, trying to put your big old dream in their mind. They're not gonna get it. Are y'all with me? I gotta go. Secondly, stay right there. You got to identify the source of income. Increase. So you got to identify who you partnering with, and you got to identify the source of increase. It's not your job, it's not profits from your business. The Bible says here, but God gave the increase.

You got to set settle that, that you're going to make sure you don't do the things that we talked about that impede increase. Get planted, keep getting water, and God's gonna do his part. He ain't gonna do his part if you ain't planted though. He's a source of increase. I need y'all to get that. That. Not Trump.

Thank God for that.

Not no president.

Let me say something to you.

I want you to evaluate that. I think I've been alive for maybe—

I think I go back to to Carter, Reagan. I've been alive for maybe 6 presidents, 4 presidents.

I can't directly tell you that one of them has helped my bottom line, inclusive of Obama. Y'all ain't got to say nothing. That looks like me. Obama ain't did nothing for me. Are y'all hearing this? And I'm gonna venture out here and say he ain't do nothing for you neither. I remember they were interviewing Black folk when Obama got elected. Lady was on there, didn't have no teeth. She said, I'm so glad Obama getting in office, he gonna give me some teeth. She still ain't got no teeth. Are y'all hearing this? Because he— one thing about her teeth, God gives increase. He's the King of Kings, he's the Lord of Lords. There's no limits in what he could do.

You got to settle that, man. If you're really going to have dominion and have increase, you got to settle it. It comes from God.

Third thing, go next. So then neither is he that planteth anything, neither he that watereth. So you don't give glory to the one that plants you or the one that water you.

You don't worship that person.

You don't give them the credit, because remember, they're just servants. There are people who would like to take credit for your success. I made them who they are. I heard one apostle say, how you gonna not give to me and I made you a man of God. I gave you license. I ordained you. No, really, you just went through a formality. Are y'all hearing this? God, the one called them, and you were being a servant. Because we don't do what we do for money. Watch, go to verse 8. Go to verse 8. It's right there. He said, now he that planted and he that watereth are one. So watch this. The apostolic anointing and the teacher anointing are no greater than each other. They're one. They collaborate to make us who we are. Are y'all hearing this? And watch this: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labor. It's just— there's two things in this text. The first thing is God takes care of the planter and the waterer. This is why I work very hard not to charge people for conferences and information, because at the end of the day God didn't charge me for it. Are y'all hearing this? This meaning that we're planning for apostles only. God told me to call together apostles because the heads of the church need to come together. He said, I want you to bring the apostles together and lock in a room for 3 days, pray, have round tables, get the word, prophesy, and speak to the direction of the world. Watch this. Apostles are too divided. And even in the Bible, though the scriptures say in Matthew 10, he sent them out two by two, there should always be a collaboration between apostolic voices. And then the Lord further took me into this. He said, if you look at the world, he said NATO comes together annually. That's the North Atlantic Treaty organization. That's world leaders. They come together in one room, all the prime ministers, our president, everybody's there, and they discuss the direction of the world. But apostles get so busy building their own stuff— y'all ain't got to talk to me here— that we don't come together. But if the heads of the church— are y'all hearing this?— can't come, I doubt if you're apostolic. Public.

If you can't collaborate—

listen, if there's an apostle watching me, we got to figure out ways to come together because two are better than one, and one can chase a thousand, two can put 10,000 to flight.

If we want to see the world change, we got to learn how to connect.

Are y'all hearing this? So, so we're going to have this meeting, and that's where we're going to do it, at Billy Graham. They got a nice facility up there. There at the COVID Every time me and Felicia go, it's just nice. They dead as all outdoors, but we just go. Glory to the name of God. To— yeah, see, I'm gonna talk about them now. Glory to God. They dead as all outdoors, but we go to retreat, to get away. And, and, and, and, and any day we meet people we can minister to that have an appreciation for what we carry. Are y'all hearing this? Well, the reality is, we— I said we need to bring a meeting in here that's full of power, that's spirited. So we were going to have 4 Apostles Only up there in Asheville in the mountains. And what it was going to cost, close to $12,000 to do it. We weren't going to charge the apostles nothing.

We're just going to tell them, just get there. You get 3 meals a day, you get lodging, and you get to be in this meeting. Are y'all hearing this?

They told us we're coming.

So now I done shifted. We're gonna have it right here in Stone Mountain at Evergreen.

It's gonna cost us about $3,000 more. We're gonna still do the same thing because at the end of the day, we, we can't— I could easily say I'm gonna give you room and board, 3 meals a day, the conference. This conference, $400, $500. And if you're really an apostle, you can, you can really pay folks $500 registration. We're not doing that because God said give it free. Because, because if you go into a vineyard and work, he said what's right, I'll pay, not people pay. Well, I don't know, I done been to some worldly conferences. I'd have paid $3,000, $4,000 to be in the room and really felt very dissatisfied after I left. Are y'all hearing this? We need to understand that we receive award according to our labor.

So let's do the work and let God bring the increase.

Are y'all hearing me? I'm just— this is just a small thing. The reality is the more we walk with God And the closer we get to God, the more he wants to provide. If he see we lackadaisical— notice it says labor, not according to being lazy. You can be a Jamaican with 6 businesses on paper, but if you don't work them businesses Well, are y'all hearing this? Yeah. No, so y'all, y'all stay with me. I'm gonna be through in a moment because this was supposed to be the first night for us from starting our Sunday night service. I'm gonna let y'all not come then Sunday night and get your mind right for next Sunday night, but I am going to teach as long as I want to today, so stay with me. So here's the next point. So say this with me: I gotta identify godly partnerships. So I gotta identify the source of increase. Here's the last point: you gotta indemnify your fruit. Indemnification is this: It is putting an insurance policy on what has been produced.

Are y'all hearing this?

If you got a life insurance policy, the payout is called indemnification. You have put coverage on your life, and if you're smart, you learn the right kind of coverage. So it don't just pay for your funeral. Life insurance is a vehicle that you could pay for legacy. You can leave inheritance to your children's children through life insurance. You can break tax brackets through life insurance. And God spoke to me last night. He said we need to learn to identify our fruit, because when I was studying the seed that $560 billion carries— watch this— multiple billions of dollars above that in insurance. Y'all ain't got to say nothing. So should they sow the seed and the rain don't come and something comes to eat up the seed, they got an insurance policy. Y'all ain't got to talk to me here. That says the seed is so valuable that we're gonna pay you what it's worth and more, my Lord, so you can replace the seed and plant again. Say this with me, say, I got an indemnify my purpose, my destiny, God's plan for my life. Because guess what? Even when you come up against challenges and hard times, that the enemy attacks your life— glory to the name of God— if you indemnify this thing in prayer, if you indemnify it in purpose, if you indemnify it in faith, there will be nothing that the enemy can do to stop your fruit, to stop your progress. I wish I could preach to somebody here.

You need to cover this thing.

And I—

oh my Oh my God, I hear you, Father. And that's one of the reasons why the blood was being released in this place, because guess what? I remember growing up, my daddy praying for us before we had car insurance, before we had, oh my God, life insurance. He would pray for us before we go to school, say, "Cover them in the blood." He put hands on the car, said, "Cover the car in the blood." I wish I had some help here. God will cover your life.

I gotta go. So nothing that comes against you— this is how concerned he is about increase happening and dominion happening.

He says just keep it covered, plead the blood over it, pray over it. A lot of stuff happened because an idle mind is the devil's workshop. You get idle, he comes in. You open the door, he can only come into your life except you open the door. So you got to put the blood on that joker every day. You got to decide that you're gonna be more than a conqueror every day. Are y'all hearing this? That you're gonna take victory in your life every day and dignify your fruit. Root. Can I submit to you, God is so committed to you, even when we don't have enough sense to cover it ourselves, he will protect it because he's invested in your dream. He really wants to see it come to pass. Because if I, if I really can be honest with you, some of the stuff that you've lived through, other folk have died in. I'm gonna say that again. You have lived through stuff that other folk died in because there was indemnification by his blood over your destiny. Listen, some of us didn't even deserve to be protected. Well, let me just talk about me. I know there's some seasons in my life I didn't deserve his grace. I didn't deserve his—

oh my God— mercy.

I didn't deserve his protection.

But in spite of what I was doing, in spite failures, in spite of my shortcomings, his blood, it covered me anyway. Because he said, son, you're carrying something. My God, here you're carrying something that the future needs. My mama couldn't abort me because there was indemnification over my life. I wish I could preach like I feel. Some of you don't realize it, but your heart is beating bleeding, and you're still alive because God covered you, because God blocked it, and he wouldn't let it be so. There was stuff the enemy planned that God blocked, that God stopped. There's stuff witches sent at me, there's poison people put in my food, but it couldn't kill me. My God, I wish I could preach like I feel because there was blood over my life, because there was more that he had in store. Can I preach to you today? There is more. You're alive because there's more. I wish I had somebody that realizes the blood kept you. The Lord himself covered you. You. He could have killed you in your sin. He should have killed you. Y'all ain't got to talk to me here. The devil should have knocked me out and destroyed me when he had the chance, but he messed up. I'm still here to bless the Lord, to preach the gospel, to walk in dominion, to walk in increase. If anybody's here, made up your mind that increase is your portion, open your mouth and give God praise. Yeah, y'all excuse me, I'm sorry, but something happens to me when I think of the goodness of Jesus and all he's done for me. I have to praise him, I have to give him glory, because nobody knows like I know. Matter of fact, the old song say, you don't know like I know what the Lord has done for me. So don't judge my praise, don't judge my worship. I'm thankful that God didn't let me die, that God still has me here. I'm thankful that he kept me. I can still preach, I can still teach, I can still do his will. Anybody here thank God?

I got to go. Y'all, excuse me. I'm sorry. Thank you for keeping me, God. Thank you for saving my life. Thank you, God, for indemnifying my purpose. Thank you, God, that you didn't let the devil have his way with me. Thank you, Jesus. Hallelujah, hallelujah, because I didn't lose my mind. Thank you that my body still holds up. Get them through a heart attack, I'm still here.

Through failure and pain, I'm still here.

Thank you, Jesus. I know it was you.

Shekata tabaya. I wish I could talk to people that know it was the Lord. I wish I could talk to people that understand that your silent tears and your silent frustrations and all the things you've gone through and all the hell you've endured, that it was not in vain, but God was bringing you through for such a time as this. I'm telling you, you have purpose. God has a plan, and you need to thank him this morning for where you're going. It's not where you've been, it's not about where you are. This thing is about where you're going. And I stopped by this church today to tell somebody, you're going somewhere, you're going somewhere. There's a higher height, there's a deeper depth. There's a greater call. You're going somewhere. Open your mouth and give him praise.

Y'all say it. I'm done.

I'm done. Say it, please.

Yes, God. We give you praise. I'm closing. Last things.

If you're going to have increase—

thank you, Jesus.

Thank you, Lord. If you're going to have dominion increase, there are three dimensions of dominion seed.

That produce it. The first dominion seed you got to sow— I don't think I have notes on this, we're just out of here, glory to God. You got to sow the seed of ego.

E-G-O. Edging God out, doing it your way. Pride and arrogance.

Shebanda kasiya.

Bible said pride come before a fall and a haughty spirit before destruction. You can't walk in this thing called dominion and increase if you got ego. You got to edge that out and plant that. Are y'all hearing this? You got to let it go. You know, the pride is the source of sin. People don't stop sinning because they're proud in that area.

But God said this morning, you got to plant ego, humble yourself before the mighty hand of God that he may exalt you in due season.

Secondly, and I'm done.

I got two more, but I'm done. You got to sow— these are dominion seeds— emotions. So ego, then emotions.

You cannot afford to be an emotional creature if you're trying to operate in dominion and authority and increase. You can't let your emotions lead you. Most of the stuff I talk we talked about today. You got to sacrifice your emotions to let people go that can't walk where you going. Some of the soul ties are emotional. God said you got to sow your emotions.

Put your big boy pants on.

Are y'all hearing this? And sow your emotion. Grit your teeth. Because people that win big get a spirit of mental and spiritual toughness, and they don't let emotions stop them from doing what God has called them to do.

Babies have tantrums. Are y'all hearing this?

My grandson Merrick, he be trying to tantrum. Got one quarter into it, I'd be like, dude, get up, because we're not doing it, because it ain't gonna work.

You're gonna follow— no, get up.

You gotta sacrifice your emotions and do—

lock in and do what you got to do.

To do. Because guess what? God's looking for faith. Can I submit something to you?

Whining doesn't move heaven.

Faith does. Are y'all hearing this?

Oh wow, I'm so tired of going through.

Please just help me out.

He said, I'm waiting for faith. You need to stand up from that thing.

I'm the head and not the tail.

Looking in the face, say, I'm above and not beneath. I believe God will give increase and believe that he's breaking you so he can raise you up.

Can I submit to you, he bothered you to make you better. You don't understand it, but he's trying to make you better because he wants to get the best out of you. Ego, emotions. Lastly, I'm done. You got to sacrifice economically.

This is the least thing this is about.

Out. But at the end of the day, you got to do it because you cannot have increases. The exchange system— if you give on the same levels all the time— are y'all hearing this?

You wanna—

okay, so remember, the seed can only produce what is inside of it. Inside of an apple seed are apples. Inside of oranges are oranges. Inside a watermelon seed is watermelons. Inside of $5 seeds are fives. Oh, y'all hearing me?

I'm just telling you, it is tight, but it's right, it's true. Because you got to make economic sacrifices in the kingdom and in your purpose. If you got a dream What does that look like, saying I got a vision to build a soundstage for my company and I don't invest in it?

Are y'all hearing this?

I'm asking everybody else to invest in it, but I don't. I'm not making an economic sacrifice.

If I say I believe in where we're going to and we're going to pay this building off cash, and God said we're going to pay this building off cash that we're about to go to that we're about to buy for $1 million. We're gonna pay it off cash in a year. So I already know I got to make big sacrifices that whole year because I believe in what God told me.

I got to make economic sacrifices.

It's a part of it. Inside of 20s, 20s, hundreds. You really want to break the back of the enemy, plant a $1,000 seed. It becomes easier— ask me, I know— to plant $1,000 because he gives seed to the sower.

So when you sow, you get more thousands back to sow.

But if you never do it, you won't see that harvest. It's a, it's a dominion. These are dominion seeds. You got to sow to me and said, where do you want to go? I gave Pastor Jeffrey a hard word. It was hard for me to give it when it was coming from the Lord.

I thought, he ain't working, he ain't got no job.

He got businesses, but he ain't got no job. And I told him, I said, you need to start sowing seed and paying tithe based on where you want to be, where you want your businesses to be. What do you want to make? Start sowing that now. Guess what he did? He was obedient. He started doing it.

And the testimony is true. Every time I tell him to do something, he do it, and he sees the return. He's living in a $500,000 house with no job. I'm just saying, I'm just trying to show you the value of economics.

I sacrifices. If you saving everything for your foe and no more, that's all you going to have. But if you got a dream, you got a business, you got a ministry, you got to invest in it. Ego, emotions, economics. Dominion and increase is never easy.

We going to do it, and I'm committed.

You can play softly, Pastor. I'm done. I'm committed to make sure we walk in dominion. Everybody stand. I'm done. Did y'all learn something today?

Say this with me.

Say, Heavenly Father. Come on, I need y'all to say it like you mean it.

Say, Heavenly Father. In the name of Jesus. Say, I receive the word. Say, I decree and declare that increase is on your mind. And because of this, increase is on my mind. Say, I believe some plant, some water, but you, God, give the increase. Say, I believe the word. If something is not increasing me, say, I believe it will ultimately decrease me. Say, in the name of Jesus, I will release myself from things internally I cannot handle. Say, in the name of Jesus, I break my comfort zone because I believe my comfort zone is a product of carnality. But I trust you, God, with more for my life, for my ministry, for my family. For my business. Say, in the name of Jesus. Say, I declare that no weapon formed against me will be able to prosper. Say, in the name of Jesus, abundance is mine, increase is mine. Say, prosperity is mine, health is mine. Say, I have victory in Jesus' name. Say, I pray now, God, for wisdom in every affair in my life. Father, you said if anyone lacks wisdom, ask of you who gives to all, and it shall be given. So now I ask in faith, nothing wavering, to be filled with the knowledge of your will, your wisdom, and understanding. Say, in the name of Jesus, I declare ego, emotions, and economics are seeds I must sow to produce increase. And I declare it now in the name of Jesus. I receive increase, I receive dominion.

I declare I am a dominionaire. I am a dominionaire in Jesus' name. If you believe what you said, praise God and shout in this place. Come on, open your mouth and shout about it! Yes, God, we will walk in dominion.

We will walk in authority and power. Come on, if you have a prayer language, begin to pray in the Spirit now. I feel a release in this place. Yeah, I hear that, God. There's a release in this place.

It's fresh oil from heaven. There's a release in this place. A release of increase. A release of increase. God gives the increase. Allow yourself to be planted. Allow yourself to be watered. Fresh oil from heaven.

Fresh oil from heaven. Fresh oil from heaven.

Fresh oil from heaven. God said today I'm anointing you with fresh oil.

I dare you to receive it. Fresh anointing anointing for increase, fresh anointing for expansion. He's expanding your capacity even as I'm speaking. He's expanding your capacity. Begin to pray in the spirit, and let him expand your capacity to reach for more, to reach for more.

It's released in this place. Release in this place. Ma'am, let me pray for you in this red dress. Come here real quick, right there in this red dress. Come here, lift your hands up. Keep praying in the spirit, saints. Lift your hands Hands up. Come back here and just come back here. I give you praise, God. Father, I thank you even as she lift her hands in your presence. God, thank you for fresh oil. And God said it's not ironic that you came in the door with this red dress. You wasn't here at the beginning of the service when the blood was being pled.

God said this is prophetic confirmation that the blood has defeated everything that has come against our lives.

And he said to tell you that the blood covers you today, that the blood—

lekiska tatavanda takoshiaya— touches your body even now, that the blood is lifting you up. That the blood is redeeming you from everything the enemy has tried to bring against you to stop you. God says he's about to do a new thing in you.

He says, I'm about to rise you above this turbulence. And God said, in the days to come come, you're going to see great transformation and change even in your home.

Yeah, amen.

So Apostle Kirby wanted to host The Apostles Are Coming in Vegas, so we're going to Vegas. Vegas. It's going to start that Sunday. Of course, I'm not going to be there that Sunday. Apostle Brandon is preaching Sunday evening in Vegas— Sunday morning and Sunday night. He'll be preaching both services there, Easter Sunday morning and Sunday night in Vegas. I'll get there on Monday. He and I are going to preach together on Monday. On Tuesday night, I'll preach, and it'll be over. But if you want to stay in Vegas, we going to be there all week because we were going anyway for Felicia's birthday. So we got some good rates on rooms. The flights are crazy cheap right now, so the time to book them is now. I saw a flight on Delta for $209. Yes, I, I mean, so we need to know today who's going so I can let Apostle Kirby know how many rooms he needs to get. He, he can't tell me the property, but it's going to be a Caesars property. 30. So that means Caesar Palace, the Bellagio, MGM Grand, one of those. All right, all nice hotels. So if you want to go, let me know. He can get a very cheap rate. I mean, we talking about $300, $400 a night hotels, pretty cheap. So just let me know when you're coming, how long you're going to be there, and I can relay that information. Matter of fact, so I don't forget, Pastor Jeffrey or TK. Y'all get the information to one of them and say, I'm going, and this is how many days I want to be there, and I need a room for how many nights. And that way we'll know how many rooms we need to get, who and for how long. Amen. But I would love for y'all to come. It's going to be great. We have a good time out there as well. Yeah, like I say, I want y'all to go places other than North Atlanta. Amen. Glory to God. So Vegas is a great place, a lot of great restaurants, and it's going to be a move of God during those services. Y'all know when me and Apostle get together, it's always something phenomenal. So it's going to be good. We're looking forward to that. Me and Apostle both are excited. He going to already be done laying laid the ground when I get there. So I'm excited for that. Amen. Are y'all good? All right, we're going home. One last thing. If this is tax season, if indeed you need a tax document for your giving in 2025 to this church, I need you to let Pastor Jeffrey know. Give him your name and your address, because we're going to disseminate them by mail, not— because that's your personal information, so we're not going to send it through email. We don't want no data breaches, none of that. We're gonna mail it to you. So as soon as you get that to him, we'll get that out to you. Amen. So if you need that, let him know, and, uh, we'll go from there. We all blessed today, for real. Hallelujah. Y'all stand, we going home. So glad to see you today. Thank you for being here. Y'all give our visitor a hand. Thank you for coming. You got to come back again. Amen, amen, amen. Glory to God. All right, God is good. Grab somebody by the hand, we'll pray. Well, Pastor Jeffrey, you come and say the last word and take us home, sir. You always be over there working.

Oh, I'm sorry, I'm just not used to being able to have his mic.

Amen, amen, amen.

Were we not blessed?

Were we not blessed? I mean, sometimes it's tight. But I would much rather have my feelings hurt on this side than to have my feelings hurt over on the other side when he's saying, depart from me. Amen. I'd much rather have it and get my feelings hurt because feeling, you know, your emotions are just temporary.

They're just temporary.

The hurt is just for a moment. Amen. Than to have eternal issues. Amen. So we thank God, we thank God. If all hearts and minds are clear, we will not delay any further. Father, in the mighty name of Jesus, we thank you and we bless you for the word that has come forth in this place. Oh God, we thank you, oh God, for you chasten those whom you love. So Father, we thank you for the word, we thank you, Father, for the chastening, because we know that we have not been placed in a reprobate mind. So we say thank you. We say thank you, Father, that we have found favor with you, that Father, that you would continue to speak to us, oh God. So Father, we say thank you yet again, for in all things give thanks. So Father, we say thank you. We thank you, Father, for our apostle and ask right now, oh God, for the pouring out, that Father, that you would pour back into him in the mighty name of Jesus. Father, the anointing that rests upon him the oil, oh God. It was fresh oil today, oh God. So the fresh oil that was spoken, oh God, we pray right now, oh God, that the fresh oil that has rested on our apostle, that Father, that it would rest upon us also, oh God. Just as the oil flowed down Aaron's beard, down to the hem of his garment, oh God, may none not be touched. May not one part of our lives not be touched by oil, oh God. And Father, and we lift up his lovely wife, oh God. We lift up Lady Woods, oh God. We thank you for her, oh God, as she stands next to him. And we celebrate you, oh God, for her life, the love that she extends to each one of us, oh God. We even celebrate in advance the birthday that is coming, oh God, that you would continue to keep her, that you you would continue to sustain her in the mighty name of Jesus. Every family that's represented here, Father, every need that has been placed before you, Father, we call upon you as Jehovah— Jehovah Jireh— that you would supply every need, oh God, that every need, every emotional need, every physical need, Father, that you would bless in the mighty name of Jesus. We pray, Father, as we leave from this place, that angels that have been assigned to us would escort us to our destination. Father, may we have good news this week, oh God. Father, may no one receive bad news this week, oh God. Father, we ask that as we have praised you in this place, that we would see you move on our behalf this week, oh God. May the testimonies come, oh God, that we may give you glory, oh God. God, may your countenance shine upon us this week, oh God, in the mighty name of Jesus. Father, we glorify you. Father, we bless you, oh God, for you alone are great and greatly to be praised. Father, have your way this week. Have your way this week, oh God. On Monday, move, oh Lord. On Tuesday, move. On Wednesday and Thursday, move. On Friday and Saturday. Move, oh God, and we glorify your name. We bless you, oh God. We honor you, oh God. We honor you, oh God, in this place, oh God. Father, lastly, we come before you. And Father, and as the chronos was advanced an hour, oh God, as the chronos was advanced an hour, Father, we pray that let that which we have been waiting to uphold, that which we've been ready to obtain, oh God, Father, now, oh God, let the distance between that which we're waiting for and us right now, oh God, let the distance be closed in the mighty name of Jesus. Father, let us be advanced in our dominion, advanced for our provision, advanced, oh God, in the mighty name of Jesus, that we may glorify you, that we may bless you, oh God. God and return it all unto you. In the precious name of Jesus the Christ, the Messiah, the Son of the true and living God, Emmanuel, God with us, we pray with thanksgiving and expectation, believing we have received already. We say amen for the Father, amen for the Son, and amen for Holy Spirit.
