"Faith That Commands" | Dr. Mike Woods, Sr.

Well, grace and peace everyone, be multiplied to you from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Listen, I am grateful to be in your presence today. Listen, welcome to day 16, hallelujah, of our 21 days of fasting plus prayer. I am so grateful, man, for this fast. You know, we started out and we set some directives from the Lord on what this fast would be about, because really we wanted to fast and do the fast that the Lord ordained, not just something we wanted to do, but we really wanted to do the fast that the Lord ordained. Glory to God! And so we waited and we heard from him. We set some clear directives concerning this fast, and God told us to fast for overflow. So we've been fasting for overflow of faith, overflow of finances, overflow, glory to God, of spiritual power. I don't know about nobody else, but I've been seeing overflow in all those areas in my life, and I am super grateful. I've gotten some testimony from some as to how this fast have affected them. I would love to hear from many of you who are fasting with us. Just let us know, send me a DM if you got my phone number, send me a text, say, hey Apostle, this cast has been so good. And, um, listen, I, I'm, I'm grateful, you know, for your loyalty to it. So I thank you. Let's pray. I don't want to belabor the time. This is our 12 noon teaching. I want to jump right in this. We're still talking about Bulldog Faith. Glory to God. This is Bulldog Faith Part 9. Glory to God. We're really Part 10 because we did 2 parts on one particular teaching. So Bulldog Faith Part 10 today. And, um, again, we got to get this faith, man. You can't overflow in faith if you don't fill up with faith. Nothing can overflow until you fill up with what you're trying to overflow with. Glory to the name of God. So we've been teaching about this because we want you to please God. Without faith, it is impossible to please the Lord. So let's pray. Father— yes, God, in the name of Jesus, we thank you for another opportunity to teach and to share your word with these your people. Thank you, God, for those that diligently follow these teachings online and receive what they need. I pray that this word will superimpose itself upon them, God, with great power and authority, that not only will it be something they hear, but it'll be something they do. For your word tells us not to be hearers only, but also to be doers of the word. So God, as the word is disseminated, may your people be doers of this word today. And I pray, God, that you will give us the light, the illumination, and the intelligence of the Holy Spirit. And we bless you for it now. God, hide Michael Woods behind the cross. No flesh seen. You, God, please today speak through us and let, let your people take action with this word today. In Jesus' name, amen. And thanks be to God. Hallelujah. Listen, I love you all. Thank you again. For being here today. Bulldog Faith Part 10, glory to God. And we're talking about the command of faith today. And listen, I want you to do me a favor right here. Please share this live stream, whether you're on YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, whether you're listening to a podcast, whatever you're doing, I want you to share this because at the end of the day, people need faith. I just said it earlier. The reality is the Bible says without faith, in Hebrews 11:6, it's impossible to please the Lord. So you can't even bring pleasure to God and operate in the pleasure mode of God if you're not moving by faith. That's why religion is performance-based and not pleasure-based. Most of the time, religious people, no matter how gifted they appear— listen to this— they could appear very gifted, talking tongues real loud, lay hands on you, glory to the name, prophesy to you, and shout you glory to the name of God and appear— watch this— very deep, very wonderful. But they're actually performing. They're operating from a place of performance, which is what religion does. It drives performance to draw people— watch this— to the culture, the religious culture, or the person leading the culture. But when you operate from pleasure, You're operating by faith. Performance is operating out of the flesh and not faith. It's operating out of feelings, out of emotions, glory to God, and not faith. So in order to please him, we got to have faith in God, you know. So that's why I'm teaching this biblical aspect of faith, glory to God. Faith has gotten a bad name because people think, you know, something's wrong with faith. You hear faith teachers teaching about it, but listen, the faith teachers were necessary to the body to bring balance. When Fred Price and Ken Copeland and Dad Hagin, when all these guys start teaching this stuff, and E.W. Kenyon, even beyond them, glory to the name of God, Les Sumrall, all these generals of faith, when they start teaching this, God put this word in their mouth so that the body can be balanced, so that you don't move in performance-based religion, but you operate from the pleasure mode. And we operate from the pleasure mode through faith. You please God. So in this 10th installment of Bulldog Faith, today we're talking about the command of faith. The command of faith. Glory to God. And I want you to get out your pen, your paper, take good notes, engage in the comments. Glory to the name of God. Tag somebody in the comments. Because this is going to be good today. So let me start by saying this, you know, we've learned a lot, and I think one of the main things we've been able to grasp through this teaching is that faith— I've said it 100 different ways, but this is really what I've been saying— is that your faith, your bulldog faith, it has to be fed. If you don't feed it, listen to me, it will regress. I'll say that again. If you do not feed your faith, it's going to regress. It's going to digress. It's not going to go from faith to faith. It's not going to— the measure of faith that you have will never increase if you don't feed it. You gotta feed your faith and starve your doubts to death. Man, growing up as a teenager in high school, glory to God, I always love ministry. Glory to God. So every day, Monday through Friday, um, two broadcasts I would listen to on WAK. Glory to God. Some of you in Atlanta know what WAK is. Some of you folks that's children, you don't know what that is. Okay, but Grown folk know what WALK is, radio station, gospel radio station. But two broadcasts used to come on in the afternoon every day, Monday through Friday. A lot of them, a lot of preachers would come on AOK, 15-minute slots. But one would be Bishop Wiley Jackson Jr. I would listen to Bishop Jackson every day, and I would also listen to Pastor Joseph Ripley, who will always say, feed your faith. And starve your doubts to death. And the more I heard him say that, what I realized was every place of doubt in my mind, I could not give it any nourishment. Because what you feed— listen to this— will grow. I'm gonna say that again. What you feed will grow. And so in order to have a faith that commands, you got to feed your faith. Faith comes by hearing. Hearing by the word of God. So you got to feed it, just like a real bulldog. That bulldog maintains his aggression through proper nourishment. You got to keep him strong. Glory to God. If you feed him, he's going to digress. He's not going to go after the things that his nature— glory to the name of God, hallelujah— were created to go after. Listen, your spiritual DNA was created to pursue supernatural things, to pursue manifestations of your needs being met and provision in your life. Praise God. Oh my God, man. And not following after your own emotions, your own will, your own thought process, because your culture is— your concept of God is religious. And not from a faith relational perspective. See, when you really know God, it's something already built in you called the Ruach of God that he breathed in you, the breath of life that makes you want to expand that relationship. But when you approach it through religion— I don't know why I'm going this way— that's all you know. But God wants you to know him. Listen to me, for real. Let's get into this, man. Let's go to Romans 4:16. Glory to God. Hallelujah to Jesus. Romans 4:16. I love Jesus. How about you? Glory to God. I'm telling you, I love it, man. Romans, Romans 4:16. We're already there. Glory to God. Listen, the Bible says, therefore, listen to this. It is of faith that it might be by grace to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed, not to that— listen to this, glory to God— not to that only which is of the law, but that also which is of faith. Glory to God, who is the father of us all. Listen, Bulldog Faith commands. What is it commanding? This text is telling us what this faith is commanding. Listen to me, uh, it's, it's, it's, it's commanding the grace of faith, the empowerment, the gift, the ability of faith. Glory to God! To ensure that the seed bed that's planted in us through, again, our inheritance through Abraham and our spiritual DNA will literally emerge in our life. But we got to call it forth. So what does it mean, glory to God, to call things not being as being? What you don't see as being real, glory to God. What you don't see as being real So faith calls into existence the things that do not exist. Lord, I love this. I'm gonna say it again. Faith calls into existence the things that do not exist. The Bible says that we should speak those things that are not as though they were. We call forth those things that are not as though they were. That word called in that particular text is the word kaleo, which means to summons, watch this, to order to appear. So when you, when you're calling something that's not there as though it is there, you're speaking to it and you're ordering it to appear. You're ordering it to come forth. Glory to it. You speak it with authority and you command it to get in position. So you don't accept lack. Glory to the name of God. Hallelujah. But you speak to a thing, shemandede bekosi anta, until it shows up. Listen, just yesterday, man, I was trusting God for something I wanted to do, glory to the name, and something I needed, glory to God. And there's a way I wanted to purchase it, right? I didn't want to create a whole bunch of debt. I didn't want to take from, you know, my money, glory to God. I wanted God to work a miracle and cause this thing to come because it was a need. Glory to God, I needed it to be supplied. Yeah. So I began to speak in faith to this situation and speak to the items that I needed. And just as sure as the world, it lined up exactly the way it needed to. And the items are processing right now on their way to me. Because I moved— listen to this— in faith. I commanded it to come forth. Listen, it's an order to appear. If you get a summons from the court to appear before the judge, here's my suggestion to you: you better show up. Glory to God. If not, The judge has some people at his disposal called sheriffs and marshals. They are going to find you, and you're going to appear before the judge one way or another. That's how powerful commanding something to come forth is. Glory to the name of God. Watch this. When you put the word on it and command it to come to you. Wow. We're talking about the command of faith. That's what Bulldog Faith is, is commanding. And you command it to come to you. Glory to God. It is ordered to appear. And what happens? The angels who hearken to the voice of the word, they get behind what you said and begin to execute this promise and bring what you're speaking. Watch this. Into manifestation. Now listen, I'm not— this is not good talk, man. This is real. This works. And many of you are living beneath your privilege. You're living beneath God's plan for your life because you are tapped into a culture. You love religion. You love to dance. You love to shout. You love the process of religion. You love the idea of church. Which is wonderful. I'm a church guy, man. I love church. I'm a church man. Glory to the name of God. But I don't want church that has no real tangible life. I don't want church without God. I don't want church without faith in God to produce what God can provide for my life. So you got to command now what you want in your life to come forth. You got to tell it, you are hereby ordered and notified to appear. Uh, watch this. A summons is a legal warning notifying a person to appear in court on a specific date at a specific time at a specific place. Oh, you better start summoning what you need specifically according to the word of God and command it to appear. You need it on the first, command it to appear on the first in your bank account, in your life. Command the opportunity to open. You need a— you know what, If you need a place to live, get in faith. You need a car to drive, get in faith. Glory to God. My God, go to 2 Corinthians 4. Let's, let's do this, man. 2 Corinthians 4. 2 Corinthians 4:6. My God, today, hope y'all getting something out of this. Just, just type in the comments, my faith commands. Glory to God. Say, say this with me with your mouth. Say, in the name of Jesus, My words are powerful and my faith is strong. Say, in Jesus' name, I decree and declare whatever I need, I can call it to me by faith. Oh God, oh God. Oh God. 2 Corinthians 4:6, let's look at it. It says, for God, watch this, who commanded the light, who commanded eppo, who spoke to the light with authority, who said to the light to shine out of darkness. Again, there it is, eppo, which is literally where we get words like optics or optical, which means he said it with authority until he saw it. Now, this being God, soon as he said it, he saw it. So I'm inclined to believe if God lives in us and we have the creatorial power of God and the Holy Spirit in us because Christ lives in us, glory to Jesus, we should be creating and calling things forth like God does. I'm just telling you, man. I'm, I'm, listen, I'm just telling you. He said he called her light to shine out of darkness. What dark situation is happening in your life that you haven't spoke to? All you've done is complain about it. I told you early in this series, it's either a faith opportunity or a failure opportunity. And when you take it as a faith opportunity, you speak to it, you command it, you command that dark situation to become light. You command that situation to adjust and work in your favor. Yeah, yeah, I got to go, I got to go, man. I'm sorry, I, I got to go. He says the light to shine on darkness has shined in our hearts to give the light of knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. So here the word command again Epo in Greek, which is literally the same as call or to command with authority. Again, God commanded those things out there to come to him. He knew that light could emerge out of darkness. He knew that light was stronger. It was a truth to him, so he spoke a truth. Glory to God. And that's what we're commanded to do. That's what we're challenged to do. Speak the truth and call things that are out there to us. Listen, we have to do the very same thing. Hallelujah. When you get off this live, I dare you go speak into things that are not and call them to you as though they were. Listen, Bulldog Faith commands things desired to come out of the spirit realm into the natural realm. Watch this, the Bible said, "By faith the worlds were framed by the word of God," Hebrews 11. The Bible also says, glory to the name of God, "The things which we see were made by things which we don't see." It was created with creatorial faith and speech. You got to become a creator with your mouth. Ah, let's go to Matthew. Let's go to Matthew. Matthew's Gospel, chapter number 8. Oh boy, I'm trying to get through this, man. Matthew 8:18. Glory to God. Thank you, Jesus. Now, matter of fact, let's look at— let's look at verse 8 first. Let's read verses 8 through 10 just for context. The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof. But speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed. Watch this. For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to this man, go, and he goeth. And another, come, and he cometh. And to my servant, do this, and he doeth. When Jesus heard it, he marveled and said to him that followed, verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel. Now what? Wait a minute, wait a minute. So let's drop down to 18, then we'll come back and unpack these. Drop down 18. He says, now when Jesus saw the great multitudes about him, he gave the commandment to depart unto the other side. Let's go to the other side. Let's go to the other side. Now watch this. Oh boy, here we go. Let's unpack this. So in verse 8, we see in the text, right? We see in this text that Jesus says, speak the word. Oh, the, the centurion says, okay, I'm not worthy for you to come under my roof, Jesus. He understands that he's inferior to a superior. First of all, faith never approaches God like it's better than God. Faith approaches God like it needs God to move and understands that we're boldly coming to the throne of grace as an inferior to a superior. And watch this, we're really not worthy for Jesus to come under our roof except through his efficacious, vicarious, substitutionary, redemptive work of Calvary. So when the blood is applied to my life, I now become a vehicle whereby I can boldly go to the throne of grace and my faith. I'm a vehicle carrying faith to the throne of grace to bring out of the realm of spirit, out of the spirit, and out of the throne of grace what I need. But this centurion said, look, you ain't even got to come here, you got to come to my house. Just speak the word only and my servant will be healed. Now in the text, when he said, oh my God, speak the word, there we go again, command, kaleo. Command, epo, kaleo, words interchanging here in Greek, same thing. Command through your word. He was telling Jesus, give the order. Glory to God. You ain't got to come here, just give the order. Hallelujah. And on the authority of the word, I don't need to see it. I'm just gonna trust that you sent the word to my servant that's wounded and sick, and he will be healed because you commanded it. Because watch this, the elements must obey you. Everything in the natural realm must obey your creative power because your word created everything. Ooh. Oh, oh, oh, the centurion understood the authority of speaking the word, understood that when Jesus, who is the word, speaks— because in the beginning was the word and the word was God, John 1:1— so Jesus is the word. When the word speaks, the word creates. I'll say that again: when the word speaks, the word creates. Ah, oh boy, this is so good to me, man. This centurion said in verse 8, your word is the only evidence I need. Wow, wow. That is how every believer should be operating. Your word is the only evidence I need. Wow, man, isn't that something? Negative people, you could say, you could post something negative on the internet. It's a bunch of vloggers and people who choose to post negativity about other people. People will read it and buy into it very quickly. Listen, I'm giving you a quick example of how you can buy into something. Me and my youngest son, he's a Kansas City Chiefs fan. He loves Mahomes. He patterns his football. He's an awesome quarterback. Great. I mean, he's great. He's, he's one of the best in this, in the whole middle school system. Awesome quarterback, right? Loves Mahomes, patterns his game after him. So me and him going back and forth about the Super Bowl. I'm with the Eagles all the way. Eagles fought a valiant fight, right? They lost. So that means my team, I was going for a loss. Well, the very next day I get an inbox from someone that says, Mahomes, took some PEDs at halftime and failed his drug test at the end of the game, and the Super Bowl win may be revoked. I wanted to believe that so bad. I copy and pasted, sent it to my son. I said, hey, see, y'all ain't gonna keep that ring. And then I put laughing, but I already knew it was fake news because negative— watch this— doesn't need evidence. So many people retweeted that crap. And believed it because they wanted, like me, wanted the Eagles to win. I didn't retweet it. I just was playing around with my son with it. But at the end of the day, negative doesn't need evidence. I need some faith people that the only evidence you need is what the words say, is what Jesus said, is what the Bible told you belongs to you, and start speaking that. You know, I know you don't believe it because you don't speak it. 'Cause you haven't changed your language. Every opportunity you get to complain or be negative about a situation, you are. And that's not, ma'am, sir, that ma'am, sir, that's not the will of God for you. Okay, verse 9, let's unpack this. So not only did the centurion understand that Jesus' word is powerful, He also understood spiritual authority. Glory to God. He comprehended the command of faith. That's why he could make the statements he made. He said he understood it because he made commands. He understood authority. He said it in verse 9, I tell people to go, they go. I tell people to come, they come. So he understood if he could do that in the natural, first natural, then spiritual, Listen, you tell your children what to do. If you're a boss at a job or you own a business, you have employees, you, you guide them in what to do. If you're a leader any kind, you're influencing people to follow. So you understand commands and you expect people to follow, right? What more when you start saying what the King of Kings is saying? Your expectation should be that God's word operates on the same principle of authority as anyone in natural authority. Oh, we're so quick to adhere and obey natural authority. Oh boy, we obey it fast, man. But watch this, God's word is more powerful than natural authority any day. You'll believe the authority of the doctor who says you got cancer over the authority of the word that says with his stripes you are healed. You'll start talking that old crazy stuff. Oh, you gotta get sick sometime. The devil is a liar. Come on, man, the devil is a liar. You gotta believe, you gotta trust in the word of the living God, man. I got to get out of here, I got to get out of here, I got to go. So the word operates on the authority principle. You believe in other authorities, you could listen to an authority on marriage, authority on finance, and believe their knowledge. And not saying it's wrong, But at the end of the day, no one is omniscient but God. He sees and knows all things. His word is for real the final authority. Glory to God. My God, today, let's look at verse 10. And man, Jesus marveled at this. So there's a faith, there's a faith that will make Jesus marvel and be like, whoa, I like this. And said, I have not seen such a great faith. Man, I need some of y'all to make up in your mind y'all gonna get that testimony that Jesus marveled at your faith, that he just had to do what you were believing for. He said, I have not seen so great, such enormous faith that— oh my God, great there, the Greek word is tesotos in Greek, which means enormous. Gigantic. Hallelujah. Watch this. Rare and authentic. Listen, he said, I've never seen faith like this. I'm telling you, I'm, I'm, I'm, I am, yeah, in the mix to beat out this centurion's faith because my goal is to trust God at every turn and never depend on Michael Woods for nothing. Yeah, because God is real. Yeah, for I can feel him in my soul. Watch this. The Message Bible of verse 10 says this. It says, the man is the vanguard of many outsiders who will soon be coming from all directions. In other words, He said this man is the leader, he's the example of many who are looking on from the outside, you and I, reading, studying his testimony, who will come from all directions and learn to believe God like this. Oh my God. Verse 18, remember it said, now when Jesus saw the multitudes about him, he gave the commandment to depart to the other side. Because now the command is to transition, is to move to another place, is to grow again. They had— in verse 13, they saw a miracle because Jesus told him, he said, based on your bulldog faith, your servant is healed. Now they wasn't at the centurion's house, they were out in the field. Glory to God. And he said, based on your faith, the man is healed. Now we ain't got to go there. Let's go to another place. Let's go and do some more work. Your faith is so powerful, it can travel distances. It could travel to other continents. It could travel to other realms. Glory to the name of God. And cultures. And do work. What are you believing for? Some of your faith is too small. You got to feed it. Remember, you got to feed Your faith, if you do not feed it, it will digress. Let's go to John 14:13. I'm almost through. Glory to Jesus. Lord, I thank you for this word. Hallelujah, hallelujah. I dare you type in the comments, my faith is on fire. Glory to God. Come on, type it, my faith is on fire. You need to make up in your mind that your faith is like a blaze. Your your faith is on fire, and no matter what comes against you, you're going to throw the fire of your faith at it, and it's going to consume it and burn it up in the name of Jesus. Glory, glory, glory, glory! John 14:13, the Bible saying, whatsoever you ask in my name— aishio in Greek— ask again, coming as a superior, uh, inferior to a superior, humbly in his name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in heaven. And if you ask anything in my name, verse 14, I will do it. He, he reiterates the fact that if we ask in his name as an inferior to a superior, commanding the word to work for us and employing angels, he said, what you ask I'ma do it. Why? So that the Father can be glorified through the Son. So the Son's presence in our life through the Holy Spirit, as we move in faith and ask and command things through us, we give glory to God. He said, anything in my name, I'll do it. In his name, in his name, in his name. Onoma in Greek, his name. Glory to God. Which means Hallelujah! His authority. If he has anything on my authority, I'm gonna do it. Let's read this in the New King James. It says, and whatever you ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father might be glorified in the Son. I will do it. Whatever you ask in my name, that I'll do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in my name, I'll do type in the comments, he will do it. Glory to God, he will do it. You just gotta put his name on it, and his name is already written on his word that he left for us. So ask according to his word. Oh God, demand that is due, claim that is rightfully yours. Call for it and require it to be a part of your life. Y'all didn't hear that? Ask, aishio, as an inferior to a superior. Glory to God. Speak to the word, speak to the angels, and demand that that word is due in your life. Summons it, claim it as rightfully yours, command it to appear. Oh my God, I love this man. Call for it and require it. Listen, the greatest faith is in God's word and its authority alone, not demanding like the centurion did, following his example, any physical evidence. Once you speak the word, trust know it can't lie. If he said he'll supply your need, he'll supply your needs. Stop worrying, let it go. Keep confessing it, keep putting the word on it, keep rejoicing, and watch the word come to pass in your life. I got to get out of here, man. John 14:13-14, the Good News Bible said, whatever you demand— this is the Good News Bible— oh boy, whatever you demand claim, call for, and require as your Christian right, I will personally see to it that it is carried out. So whatever you claim, demand, and see as your right to have, Jesus says, I'm gonna make sure that that word is carried out in your life. Wait a minute, healing is your right. Prosperity, riches, and wealth is your right. Favor is your right. Open doors is your right. Promotion is your right. Sound mind, soundness of mind is your right. Healthy marriages and relationships is your right. What are you speaking to? What are you calling forth? Oh my God. This bulldog faith, I gotta go, is not afraid to put pressure on the word by making faith a priority in their speech. And when you make faith a priority in your speech, you put a demand on the covenant and you expect what's already yours. Y'all didn't hear that. I'm gonna say it again. Make faith a priority in your speech. And when you do, you put a demand on the covenant of the word of God. And now your spirit is expecting what you have commanded to appear to come forth. Listen, you ever heard of the term supply and demand? Woo! Supply and demand. So that most wealthy people who have great businesses, glory to the name of God, they make their money because they have a supply for what the consumer is demanding. I have several businesses, and one of my businesses, we have a great There's a great demand for what we do, and we constantly are supplying that demand. And what I've learned is, is that money is what— oh my God— is what people give you when you give them something they can't get without you. Watch this. What do you think about God? Listen, God will always supply as long as there's a demand. Problem is you haven't demanded the word to come alive in your life. You haven't demanded the word to take its proper place. But as long as there's a demand, glory to God, God will supply it. But you got to put a demand on the word, man. Listen, I'm done. Listen, when you pray, take it. Don't take no for an answer. Take it. Demand it to come forth. Command it to appear. Listen, when you command it to appear in prayer, when you take— don't waste your time going through religious motions in prayer. Take what belongs to you in prayer. Glory to God. And don't let the enemy tell you otherwise. See, when you take it and demand it— listen to me— you can live in it and you can drive it, you can wear it. Watch this. And you can spend it. See? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You can drive it, you can wear it, you can live in it, and you can spend it, baby, when you command it to appear. The reason you ain't living in or driving it or spending it, because you ain't commanded it to come forth. Glory to God. Let's pray. Father, in Jesus' name, we thank you for your word today. Glory to God. We thank you for the faith that commands. And Father, I pray in the name of Jesus that every person that has heard this word, I decree and declare that they will have the faith that commands, God, that they will leave this live and go out and begin to command Hallelujah. What they desire according to the covenant to come and appear. I release angels now to go forth and enforce the covenant of healing and deliverance, the covenant of supernatural provision and supply, the covenant of wealth and riches. God, I decree and declare it belongs to us, and I thank you that these things are ours. And so I call them forth now. In the name of Jesus. And I release angels to bring them forth. I release multi-billions in my life for the kingdom. I release in the name of Jesus debt-free facilities for Atlanta, for— oh my God— Jackson, Mississippi, and Woodbridge, Virginia. I release 365 new souls, new converts, to be added to Rhoda Church Atlanta, to be added to Rhoda Church Jackson, Mississippi, to be added to Rhettle Church Woodbridge in the year of 2023.

Listen, thank you guys so much for joining us today. Listen, it's the faith that commands. Speak to your finances, speak to your body, and command it to line up with the Word of God. Speak to your life and receive the things that God has prepared for you. Listen, my time is gone. I love you guys. Listen, do me a favor, get seed in the ground, man. Listen, it's so important that when the Word of God— I've said this over and over again. Some of you just, y'all don't respond. But I'm telling you, when you get seed in the ground, you can put a command on that seed. Glory to God. With— and because you're doing it according to the Word. When the Word is communicated to you through a vessel of the Lord, you should communicate to that same Word your natural things. That's the Bible. The Bible said if the Word is communicated to you, spiritual things, you respond then you communicate your natural faith. I want to challenge you to give today. The way to give is on the screen. Get your seed in the ground. Glory to God. I love you guys. This is day 16. Join me in the morning for 5 AM prayer. Glory to the name of God. Day 17, we're praying tomorrow morning at 5.

Genesis 1:28 says that we should be fruitful, multiply, subdue, replenish, and have dominion. This is the Dominion Mandate. The word Rada means dominion and authority. Rada Church is an apostolic and prophetic ministry designed to assist Kingdom citizens, believers, to deliberately help them really to shift their life into supernatural overflow. Because you really can't have dominion and moving your dominion purpose without supernatural overflow. So Rhoda Church exists to help you discover your dominion purpose, because your purpose is never your decision, it's always your discovery. And once you discover it, we're here to help you develop that self-same purpose. And the reality is, it's no good if that purpose is not deployed. So we're here to help you deploy that purpose into the earth so you could be effective. So you owe it to yourself, man, to visit Rhoda Church and experience this place. It's absolutely amazing. Go to rhodachurch.com right now and set yourself up for dominion purpose.

Peace.
