I AM THE ONE REVIVAL DAY 1 | "I AM THE ONE" | APOSTLE STEPHEN A. DAVIS | 1-7-24

Just for a moment. Because he lives within, I am the one. Because he lives within, I am the one. I want to take you to Acts chapter 2, very familiar passage of scripture. This is the scripture that Pentecost was birthed out of, but I want you to just really listen here because I'm building my case about what's on the inside of you. We've run around looking for something on the inside of others, but what about what's on the inside of you?

—Amen.

So in Acts chapter 2, I'll start reading in verse 1 down to verse 4, and then I'll go to 2 Corinthians 4, and I'll start reading in verse 7. Acts chapter 2, verse 1 down to verse 4. When the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. Then, then there appeared unto them divided tongues as a fire, and one sat upon each of them. Verse 4: And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance. I want to go back in verse 4: And they were all filled They were all filled to capacity. They were all filled to capacity. So you're telling me God didn't come to live outside of us? God came to live inside of us. All right, yes sir. 2 Corinthians 4. Some, some of you are sitting here, you've been stripped of your identity by intellectual fools. No disrespect, but God makes a deposit in that which belongs to him. 2 Corinthians 4:7: But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us. We are hard-pressed on every side, yet listen to this not crushed. We are perplexed but not in despair, persecuted but not forsaken, struck down but not destroyed, always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our bodies. You are treasure in earthen vessels. Don't wait on your friend to determine your value. You have to know your worth from the inside out. When you depend on someone who is limited in the knowledge about the deposit that God has placed on the inside of you, then you start to move based on what their synopsis is about you, which is limited because they were not there on your conception date. They were not there on your birth date. They were not there in many times of your life. So how can they determine your value? They can't. Luke chapter 17. Chapter 17. I, I see so many people in the body of Christ depressed. Let me tell you why you're depressed. Because you're not full. I believe in staying full all the time. I stayed up most of the night because I was in Washington, D.C., and wind got around my ears. I'm a little bit older now, so I had sinus, not COVID. But I was able to do my job effectively this morning because I've done it from the inside. Not from the outside. I'll be able to do my job tonight, and I'll be able to do my job tomorrow night because I'm not functioning from the outside, I'm functioning from the inside. I've tapped into the power within. Luke 17, verse 20 and verse 21, it reads this way in verse 20: Now when he had asked his disciples— or asked the Pharisees, excuse me— when the kingdom of God would come. He answered them, saying, the kingdom of God does not come with observation, nor will they say, see here or see there. For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you. It's within you. Now, I know we struggle, but you don't struggle because I know who your daddy was. And I don't believe the kingdom message has been preached properly since the death of your late spiritual father. So many people walk around in the body of Christ with low self-worth because they don't know the value of what lives within. And you spend so much time trying to impress people that will never be impressed with you because they're jealous of you. So if you spend most of your life trying to impress somebody that's not impressible Because the fact of the matter is they know you got treasure in you. They just don't know what you would know if you're going to use your treasure or not. They know you have value, and that's why they try to pick away at the threads of your, of your skirt, simply because they want to make something look bad that looks really good in the eyes of God. So they're trying to be judgmental because they don't have worth for themselves. So they look at you to try to bring you down to their level because they don't have any self-worth in themselves. So in the church arena, you have so many people who think they're qualified to be judgmental towards someone else, and you've allowed what they said to override what God said. But when you understand what God said about you, you block out everything that they said about you. Because many times they'll say good things about you one day, and then they'll say something negative about you the next day, in order to say, I'll give you value today and I'll take it tomorrow. But what God placed on the inside of you, it will take them a lifetime to take your value I came to preach to somebody up in this house that understands that you're not judging me. I've already been wonderfully, fearfully, and wonderfully made, and I have something on the inside of me. I don't have to ask you who I am.

I know who I am. I need to go to scriptures that show what God makes a deposit on the inside of that which belongs to him. And never depend on somebody that, that's temporarily envious of you to give you a perfect score, even if you deserve one.

They will say you all right.

No, you're not all right. You're better than all right. You're in the assignment that God has given you, and they don't like it because they're not happy doing what they do. Even if they're making money, they're not in purpose.

They were hoping you didn't find it and tap into your real identity. It took Moses 40 years to climb up a mountain and find out what his real identity was, because people can't reveal your identity to you.

Only God can reveal your identity to you. So it's worth taking the climb so you can find out who you really are. I didn't find out who I was by people, uh, making evaluations of me. I found out who I was by getting before the burning bush of God's presence. One thing I got over many people is I worship the Lord 'Lord my God, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.' And he shows—

always shows up, and he will never leave you in skepticism about your identity. So I just shared scriptures where the Lord places within you, and we have a tendency, we're looking for so many people who haven't been in the earth long enough to give us the proper evaluation of who we are. I'm going to tell you this: if they didn't receive you, find the room where they do receive you. Because they didn't value you, it was because you were in the wrong room, in the wrong setting. Now it's time to move to the setting where they know your value. Because everybody doesn't want to respect who you are.

Everybody doesn't want to celebrate who you you are. So you have to move into the other room because it was an announcement to you that it was time to move. And some of you hang around and they have beat you down over and over and over and over and over again and said things to you that they never should have said to anybody. But you got to understand, if God's got purpose on the inside of you, there's nothing they can say, there's no look on their faces that can devalue you, not when you know who you are and whose you are.

They try to grade you on what you have and don't have a revelation on what God's about to give. Because when you're in your real identity, God gets ready to release something to match the heaven that's on the inside of you, which means the dream in you—

God's about to satisfy the dream on the inside of you. God will never give you a dream and not come through and fulfill what he deposited on the inside of you. You're about to come into agreement with what God said about you. Yes, sir.

So he came on the day of Pentecost, filled the room. But not only did he fill the room, he filled the people in the room. Everywhere God goes, he fills the room, he fills the people in the room. By the time I'm done, the room will be filled. But not only will the room be filled, you will be filled. You will be filled with confidence. You will be filled with assurance.

You will be filled with knowing that Somebody, if you don't look at your bank account to see who you are, you look towards the hills from which comes your help. Your help comes from the Lord.

So we have this, this way of operating that God, after he left the Old Testament, he said, I'm not going to put it on you, I'm going to put it in you now. It's harder to lose what's in you than it is what's on you. A bad day, you can lose what's on you. Uh-huh. A bad day, it stirs up— for those who know what you have on the inside of you, the more they oppress them, the more they grew.

Why? Growth was on the inside of them.

It wasn't outside of them. The intimacy that they came into caused them to grow. When you become intimate with God, there's no way you stay status quo. No, there's no way. You cannot stay in elementary thinking. You cannot stay in elementary operation because God has a plan for you and it comes from within. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. If you don't mind, I, I— can I say hell in here? Yes, sir. I make people mad as hell cuz they don't know how to stop what's in me.

They walked away from me and I kept going. They looked down on me, they talked about me, and I kept going cuz they thought it was on the outside. It's not on the outside, you're wasting your time. It's on the inside.

How do they cause a fumble when you're carrying the ball from within?

Jesus!

Somebody shout, he's in me!

He's in me! See, you got to understand that when you get around thieves and robbers You got to understand, he's in you. And if he's in you, he is a hope of glory. You don't have anything to worry about. He's on the inside of you. You're about to get an upgrade when the pressure comes on.

Hard pressed on every side, not crushed. We're perplexed but not in despair. We're persecuted. Go ahead and talk. So you can bring the best out of me. Yeah, if you wasn't somebody, they wouldn't waste their time talking about you.

They would never have had that conversation at their dinner table or cursed their house if you didn't have something on the inside of you. They would shut their mouths if they really knew that they could not stop what's on the inside of you. They're chattering out of ignorance, but they're catapulting you into your destiny.

I just need to go here just for a minute. I got a few points. They don't know we can sense when they talk about us. We can sense the discussion because we can tell from within. You may be surrounded with ignorance, but what God makes a deposit into is not ignorance. Imagine when I drive this, how long you going to keep it?

Well, I'm living in this.

Can you pay for it?

I'm married with a family too.

Is yours together? Are y'all working as a team? Are you trying to figure out how to get your team together? Okay. Having faith in the fact that Jesus lives within us is so empowering. Yes, the power came when I realized that Jesus was not on the cross and he was not in the tomb and he was not just in heaven. He was on the inside of me. So when I walk around, I'm never alone, so I don't have to get false friends to run with me.

He sure is lonely. No, I'm not lonely at all because the Comforter lives on the inside of me, and we have constant, constant conversations. You want to know why?

Because I never hook up with somebody that doesn't understand the value that I have. Yes, sir. Having faith in the fact that Jesus lives within— you have to have faith in the fact that Jesus lives within. You don't have that many people in the body of Christ that have faith in the fact that Jesus lives within. Peter had so much faith that Jesus lived within that Ananias and Sapphira, they lied to him and then they died because he had enough faith to believe. Because I ain't got to fight you, ain't got to explain anything to you. If Jesus lives on the inside of me, I'm gonna wonder why you dying.

I guess that's a little bit too— I guess that's a little bit too— I guess we got to read from our Bible. They gonna get their hands off of you. By the time I'm done in these two days, they better not open up their mouths against you ever again, because the God on the inside of you is going to vindicate you. I believe glory is going to run out of the fibers of your being because God has already done something and is doing something. And God has said, hold your peace, I'll fight your battle.

The difference was that Jesus was in the earth. The Holy Spirit was not living within the apostles. Now heaven is living in the apostles. That's why we have to be careful 'Cause some of the stuff we going through is because we've been touching something that God lives within. I've been, I've been trying to rebuke the devil off of some people, but they touch what belong to God, and ain't no way I can rebuke the devil that they inflicted on God.

God is just fighting for what belongs to him.

Satan would love for us to think as believers that we are unoccupied by the Lord. He wants you to think that God's not in you. He wants you to think that, Jesus, that God is not occupying you. Satan would love for you to walk around devalued. With no palate. Yeah, he would love for you to walk around with no palate, no direction. My family would tell you I'm not sitting there twiddling my thumbs, uh, thumb, trying to figure out what I'm gonna do. I have someone on the inside of me that always speaks louder than anything outside of me because I have a palate on the inside that flies this explained. So I listen based on what I hear that relates to what he said. All right, all right, all right. You better leave these pastors alone in this season. You better leave them alone.

I'm going to say it again, you better leave them alone.

You ain't going to support them, you better get out of their way, because God has picked this to be high time to awake out of our sleep.

I don't care how many degrees you got, you better leave them alone.

Because if what God placed in them is for the benefit of the kingdom of God, then you better leave them alone. Stop the conversation.

Tell the person, "I'm hanging up, you're talking foolish." Because this is the time that God is manifesting himself with the authority that he has placed in the earth, and the church is not the same anymore. God is raising up some men and women with integrity who have a heart for God, who spend time with God, who read the word of God and live the word of God. Amen.

So many people try to control you. It's too late. I already have a pilot. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. It's too late. Thank you, Lord. You'll never be able to take me in a direction that he's not guiding me to. Amen. Amen. Satan wants us to feel like we're not occupied in our soul. And our haters, those who are wishing for a position that God didn't give them, want us to walk around like we're not occupied. So something is shifting And it's— the shift starts out within us. And when it starts within us, everything else is going to shake around us. I know you got a problem with preachers now, but the problem is not with the preacher. The problem is with the lies you're telling yourself that you can make it without spiritual authority, that you can make it without spiritual guides, and you have become your own that's why you keep missing it, and you still running with those people you shouldn't be running with, and you still siding with people you shouldn't be siding with, because you have become your own false prophet.

Can I go on?

This force from heaven that lives inside of is the game changer for many of us. This force that lives on the inside of us. You want to know why I trust him so much? Because he didn't let them kill me. They wanted to do me harm, but they could not get it done. They came to me with empty guns, empty notes, words that boomeranged. It had no negative impact on me, just pushed me to the next place. You know, you want to know why I'm with you? I'm with you because this is the time that God wants me to speak words to encourage you, you, you, and you. Don't let them punk you out. When you're, you're legitimate and you spend so much time making room for God to have the pilot seat, don't allow yourself to be without the pilot because of your thinking. Cuz they never wanted anybody guiding them. I'm preaching up in here. Nothing on my record. I ain't got anything about me as integrity. And they look at me cross-eyed because they like running with thieves, thieves and robbers. They want Barabbas and they said crucify the Christ. And you think we're different than they were that day? We're still the same way. We're still the same way. Whatever brings pleasure pleasure to us. That's what we want instead of having a Savior. I'd rather have a Savior than pleasure. The pressures of life only bring out the treasure in us because we are the one. The church originally was called the Refiner's House. It's called the Refiner's House because Jesus, who is the Refiner, sits over the pot and heats up the gold until the gold is so hot the dross begins to separate from the gold. So every situation that us who are called, it goes through, is because Jesus is ready to scoop off the dross. He has been purifying us as silver and gold so that we can do all that he has for us to do. So the heat on your life is different than the heat on our lives. The heat on our lives makes us more pure. The heat on your life makes you want to kill yourself. But we chose not to die. We chose to live and become a better version of ourselves. God will live it. So the pressure has to a different impact on those. They said, why you still clapping? Why you still praising? Because this is working for my good. What you thought was going to kill me didn't do anything but promote me. The fire you thought would burn me up, all of a sudden Nebuchadnezzar looked in and gave me an elevation. The things that you thought would calm me down and I would never come out of the house again, all it done was call me to build a house.

To think that the words that were considered a curse, I used them for motivation to be a blessing to so many people. Everything that was done behind the scenes, I stepped out on the platform and decreed and declared that what they said will not come to pass, but what God said has come to pass and will continue to come to pass.

I have some sons that been going through some pressure. You wouldn't go through the pressure if you didn't have treasure in you. Pressure not coming to something that, that God can't transform. Jesus, let pressure make They think what they do can stop me. No, I learned how to let pressure and adversity make me. I am what I am because of the pressure they put on. Anytime pressure comes, it's an alert to me. You're about to go to the next dimension. Anytime pressure comes, I know this is promotion time. Anytime something comes that's not on my radar but it is on God's radar. I know God's about to push me into the next dimension of life, and I'm only here to tell you about what's in you because all the pressure is bringing to the forefront what God has already placed in you. And I know people don't like what's in you, but we can see what's in you, and your enemies can too. You ever had some people that said, I just don't like them, I just don't— you don't even know why they don't like you. They don't like you cuz you have something in you they don't have in them. That's why they don't like you. And the reason they don't like you is why— cuz God didn't stop them from releasing negative emotions against you, because those negative emotions were going to work for you. You were going to find out you have a friend in Jesus because you don't have a friend in all those other folks you thought were your friends.

And when you get over them, you can get with him.

I was talking to my therapist one day and, uh, she asked me, uh, she said, do you have a friend? I said, no, you going to have to qualify to get that close to me. Come on, sir, that's it. Cuz the reason most of you are broke down like you are You brought the wrong people close to you. You gave them access to your soul, and now your soul is a wreck, and you wonder why your mind's everywhere. Because you got the wrong people access. If you give the wrong people access, they're going to try to kill your work from the inside. I am the one, and God's kingdom is in me. I don't know why they put God's kingdom in the church. I don't know why they put God's kingdom in with the Pope. I don't know why they put God's kingdom in heaven so distant. Once you receive Jesus Christ, the The kingdom of God has come to live within you, and the things you're tolerating, you have authority over. I want to hang around here just for a moment. Well, I couldn't help myself— that's a lie. You can, through the power that works within you. You can do all things through Christ who gives you the strength and the ability. So let's go ahead and divorce ourselves from that 'I can't help myself.' You may not be in to help yourself, but somebody lives on the inside of you can help you if you call upon his name. Call upon him when he is near. Where is he? He's right there on the inside of you. And if he's on the inside of you, you have help from within. I tried to be depressed one day. It's always an attempt. I tried, I tried, I tried, I tried to just feel like nothing was going to work. And it lasts only about 5 minutes, if that long, because that which is within me starts speaking louder than the things without, outside of me.

There's a voice that's on the inside of you that's louder than the voices that's outside of you. You gotta pick which one you're gonna listen to, because if you listen to the right one, you'll stop popping those pills. If you listen to the right one, I ain't telling you to get off your medication. I'm telling you, you'll stop running with people that can't satisfy the need and the hunger that's on the inside of you. You don't want a position, you want Christ. Yes, sir.

Let me tell you why you need a title to feel whole— because you don't know who lives within you. Let me tell you why you need a position to feel adequate— because you don't know the value of what lives is within you. I'm taking my titles away. You want to know why? Greater is he that lives within me than he that lives within the world.

You don't have to put a title on my name for me to have value, to know that Jesus lives on the inside of me. I don't have to be the apostle, I don't have to be the bishop, I don't have to be the pastor. I am a man of God because God lives on the inside of me. I am convinced of it. Nobody can talk me out of it. Nobody can tell me he does not show up from the inside out. It's too late. It's too late.

I love you. Always happy, you're always smiling, you radiate from the inside. You don't have to borrow peace from anybody else.

Peace lives on the inside of you. So many people are running around trying to borrow peace. Try to get it from here, try to get it from there. Peace comes from within you. Yes, Lord.

My peace is from within. Do whatever you want to, you can't take it.

The world didn't give it and the world can't take it away. Somebody say that with me. The world didn't give it and the world can't take it away. You think I'm going to leave my emotions laying on your front doorstep expecting you to lift me up when God has already lifted me up? I know you got a problem with me being powerful all the time. There's a powerful throne living on the inside of me, and Jesus, the King of Kings, sits on that throne.

I'll get more into the kingdom, but the kingdom was so powerful John had to preach it before Jesus brought it. Come on, it was so powerful. And if we don't start back to preaching the kingdom, we're going to have a lot of powerless people, because the kingdom is what carries the authority. The kingdom is what carries the power. And we got a bunch of fickle Christians because they don't know anything about the kingdom of God. And they think you're a man just like their man, and you're a woman just like their woman.

But somebody has decided that God is going to sit on the throne of my heart, and God is going to work through my life, and God's going to bless through my life, and God's going to touch— that's not one state, but other states and other nations through my life. Why? Because he sits on the throne of my heart.

It's within. It's within. It's within. I was laying there one day and realized God is not this distant God. He made a temple and he said it's the dwelling place of the Holy Spirit. He lives within me. So I stopped reaching outside of me and start reaching down on the inside of me. When I started reaching on the inside of me, there was never any vacancy. When I started reaching on the inside of me, there was never any scarcity. When I started reaching on the inside of me, there was always an answer. There was always power. There was always a solution to the problem that I was facing, but it was locked up on the inside of me.

And the devil thought he hid it from you because you don't look within, because you're afraid to really look at yourself because of what you've been through. But you gotta dig through the rubbish of your emotions and find the treasure that's down on the inside of you. I know you don't want to talk about it. I know you're having an identity crisis, but down underneath all the rubbish, there's treasure. And you gotta be willing to go down deep on the inside of yourself. You gotta go down deep past the molestation, past the abuse, past the rejection, past that, and get to the treasure that's down on the inside of you. Because that's what I've done.

The little boy in me don't rule me, cuz when I got to that place where I knew he resided, he grew up.

So I don't throw temper tantrums cuz ain't a little boy living on the inside of me. There's treasure down on the inside of me, and it takes a full-blown adult in the spirit to protect the treasure that God has placed in the inside of you.

The Bible said guard your heart, meaning don't give it to everybody.

Let's go. I'm going to help you with something.

I'm about to close. Let me tell you what's holding you back. It's not an outside enemy. It's, it's those inside dilemmas that you hadn't settled Wow. You want to know what's holding your promotion? It's your perspective from thinking from a broken place. When you start arresting the torment on the inside of you, that you'll be a blessing to all those who are outside of you. You will radiate from the inside out. I will never say what they won't allow me to do. I'm already ahead of the people who tried to stop me. You would be surprised at how advanced I think. The ones who are going to walk out on me, I've already seen them walk out while they're still there. I already have a solution for those who will walk out on I already picked my next group because I am not so damaged internally so I can't see in the distance. I'm a visionary. I got to be able to see past the trouble. Oh my God, God has a replacement for every person that walks away from you.

You're long enough to meet them. They get better as you as you go. I'm telling you, they get better as you go. There are promotions as you go. Everybody's not a Judas. They get better as you go. If you got the nerve to keep on walking, you're going to meet somebody you never would have met. And the devil's afraid that you will ever get to that person that's going to make your life so much more enjoyable.

You trying to keep something God's trying to get out of your life. I got delivered Friday. My pastor was up preaching. I got delivered. It's about 6,000 people in the place. I got delivered while he was up preaching. He says, you don't have to be like Moses, you're Joshua. I thought I had— I thought I had to be like Moses. But let me tell you something, I'm not Bishop Long, I'm Steven A. Davis.

I'm not another David, but I represent a man that's at home with the people of the Lord. I represent the Lord God Most High. I go walking that anointing. I got a double portion of that anointing that's on my life. His spirit is on me, but I don't have his personality. But I know one thing, I can be the best Steven A. Davis this world has ever seen. I want to liberate some of y'all. You got to get healed on the inside so you'll stop trying to be somebody else. He said the rod only worked for Moses.

It didn't work for Joshua.

He said the Red Sea split and they walked across on dry land, but with Joshua, he had to step into the water. There's a difference. I may be in the waters, but the waters are still going to respond because I am what God called me to be. And you can be what God called you to be. And I believe there's an anointing that God wants to release in this house that's greater than the previous anointing. If you keep hanging at the grave, you'll never get a chance to partake of what God has now. God wants to keep you hanging around yesterday, hanging Hanging around the tomb, hanging around the mortuary. There are people who are waiting on me. You've been waiting on me. I'm here now. I am here. I am here. I am here. I am not David Martin. I am the original Stephen A. Bannon with the Spirit of God. Heaven's in trouble. Bridge are in trouble. Hell's in trouble. All demonic activity is in trouble because we're here.

That God was done with him.

It's done, it's over, get over it. It's time to move on. It's time to be who God called you to be. That was a good mentor, that was a good training class, but God wanted to stir something up in you. He said, as I was with Moses, so shall I be with Joshua.

I showed you how I will walk with the leader. I showed you how I will be committed to the leader, so you know how committed I am to you. Hallelujah! How did God become unfaithful when he was so faithful to those who came for you. Everybody God places in your life is for you to learn how faithful God was to them so you'll know how faithful God will be to you. You got a revelation now, ain't it, Darlene? God is not going to decrease in faithfulness. In fact, all the land that was not taken because the soles of their feet never reached it.

I'm gonna walk on some stuff. Y'all might as well make me some room here on the left because I ain't going to the right. I'mma tell you all that refresher now. You better get ready to function around me because I'm not gonna function around you. Joshua don't function around the leader, but the leader function around Joshua. So you better get ready because when I start calling the shot, I expect something to happen. Something happen right now. Yes!

Let me tell you why God deposits in sons and daughters. He doesn't want his work to end when the one who was faithful dies. I wasn't around you to do what you do. I was around you to finish what you didn't accomplish. What is it that God wants you to accomplish that somebody that came from before you didn't accomplish? Maybe you struggling with your identity because you trying to be a dead man, a dead woman. God is a living God, and if he's a living God, he functions more freely through a living individual. Their time was up. Your time is in. When they ended, you started. When you know who you are, you know when it's time to get started. Some of y'all been delayed for a long time. Even I've been delayed. But not anymore. I told Sergeant, I told him, get ready, 'cause this year, I'm here, I'm doing this tour, I'm doing a tour, because I'm gonna go and light up every campus that I can light up.

I'm gonna go to every place I can and tell them who they are so that they can walk in it. Get away from the tombstone and the grave. You have work to do. Stop rehearsing the past. Get a vision of the future. Get God's help. Thank you. What does he want to tell you?

I'm not picking anybody to come into my life for now. I'm picking every person for where I'm going.

Every decision is about where where you're going.

Don't make decisions that are going to torment you 2 years from now. Make decisions that's going to catapult you into the greatest of places. Over the next 5 years, there should be something so extraordinary happening in your life because you chose the right people for where God had called you to go. I have about 3 3 years that I'm going to be working on. After 3 years, I'm going to find my, my successor, and I'm going to start mentoring them for about 5 years. When I turn about 65, then I'm going to step back and start letting them preach more, and I'm just going to travel around the country and travel around the world and make deposit into every place I can make a deposit into. I already have a plan.

I am not going to stay in Birmingham on that pulpit and preach until my time is up. I'm going to drop something in that place, and I'm going to move to the next place and move to the next place and move to the next place.

I'm not going to stop until God's through with me. That's why I don't have patience for people who don't want to go. You don't have time for people who have not made up their mind. You're carrying something on the inside of you. I said, you're carrying something on the inside of you. Elijah carried something on the inside of him and transferred it to Elisha. But Elisha had something on the inside of him that he didn't transfer. It went to the grave. How do you know? Because they threw the man in the grave and he touched the skeleton of Elijah and he was resurrected. We cannot leave the anointing in the tomb. I encourage you, AGI, start looking for your successor. Start imparting to your successor. Start sharing intimate time with your successor, because if you do, God will bless you now for preparing them for opinion. I wore this on purpose. This reminds me where I came from.

Amen, amen.

Some things should only remind you of where you came from.

Yes, yes.

But what I see ahead of me is stronger than this dream that I wear. It's more real.

I wake up every morning— my wife will tell you—

I wake up every morning with a drive and a tenacity. When she gets up, she's trying to wake up. I've been up. I'm like, what is this next thing that I'm supposed to do, and how do I get it done with the length of time that I have? Who is that person I'm supposed to be a blessing to as I'm on my way. The worst thing that can happen is be around somebody that's looking for a place to bless and not be prepared for the blessing. That's the worst thing that could ever happen to you. They're looking for a place to make a deposit and you become a Gehazi. God, or Elisha, would have had the right person, the anointing wouldn't have went to the children. He had someone serving him that disappointed him so much he couldn't transfer to them. Whether you like us or not, we carry something. The Apostle —in us. It's not a self-proclaimed title. We are sent ones. Even if we didn't want to go, we had to yield to God. And because we yielded to God, God is now obligated to us. So no matter what we go through, God is on our side. When you were up singing, I don't know what you really need God— there's something you really need God to do. It's not a thing that God, we can wait a while. You really need God to do something. When you were up singing and you were giving him the worship that he desires from you, he was releasing from the unseen realm into the natural realm.

And thank you, Jesus.

And every time you worship, what was in the invisible becomes visible. So don't stop worshiping because your worship is what brings the manifestation of what you've been believing God for. I don't even know you.

This is my first time seeing you.

They never know the totality of a man because they keep him in a box. You didn't bring me here for me to be in a box. You brought me here so that I can be free. I don't know what your title is, but whatever it is, God's about to elevate you, son. There's some people who are having, having conversations about you. And you were a little bit discouraged because you thought you had been looked over just because you didn't hear the conversation that they were having. But the conversations have been so deep, they almost called you 2 weeks ago. Not long from now, because they always survey before they respond. They are pleased with what they have discussed about you. They are pleased because God's pleased. So whatever that is, whatever your critics have said, whatever they have done, they can't stop it now.

The contract is already signed. That's what I hear from God. The contract is already signed. It's already signed. They can't revoke it now. It's too late. It's already done. Everybody praise God with this sound, right? It's already done.

Dr. Charger, all I see is CEO, CEO. I don't see anything else. I just see CEO. I don't know what's on the table, I don't know what the plan is, but I see CEO, and that's not a a laborer.

So get ready for your boss status. I'm talking about you are upgraded. But be honest with y'all, I see you with about 250 employees. Yeah, I'm talking to you. I see you with about 250 employees.

I usually don't speak over my wife. This may be the first time I've spoken over my wife in the service. And so many people have been pulling at you to get you to move into something. So many have been pulling at you. They didn't— with their words— and they don't know that when you do move, they gonna be changed. So they need to get prepared for change, because when you come forth that they going to change.

They not going to be the same. They have a problem with me because they don't want to change, so they're trying to opt out of me and get you so they can stay the same.

But there's an anointing that God is dropping in your life that they going to come in one way and they're going to leave a totally different way.

It'll start off with the offering, but it'll bleed over into the service, and people will be delivered and slain in the spirit because of what God is doing in your They not going to want to be your buddy. They going to want to be the Jesus that's on the inside of you because they don't know the Jesus on the inside of you. And that's why they call you First Lady, but there's more in you than a First Lady. And that's why you rejoice. And when they try to figure you out, you get too close to me for all these years. There's no way that I run off on you. Thank you, Lord.

Thank you, Lord. You serve so well, and you have touched the heart of God. You've touched the heart of God with your service. You've inconvenienced yourself. It's your wife's birthday today, and you came all the way here to serve me. God has heard your cry. Nobody really know. They don't know. They think they know. They don't know. They don't know. God said, I've seen your affliction. Not many days from now, I will reward you with triumph. Once you laid before God says, I am the righteous judge. I will vindicate your behalf. It's already done. It's already done.

Most people can't serve when they're going through.

You've been serving for a long time, and there are many times you walked away from some horrible situations. Situations just to come serve. And he said, God, don't let that, what I'm going through, impact my leader. I love my leader. I want to tell you that not one time that you come around me that anything that was going on with you impacted me in the negative. God has rewarded you with grace. I don't usually speak over my family. I just tell them stuff I'm feeling. So Sasha, over the next few years— I want to tell you, you say, "I feel like my daddy." Over the next few years You're gonna be more like me in such a way it's gonna scare people. It's gonna scare them because they're gonna hear a female's voice, but they're gonna hear the voice of your father coming through you. And they're already nervous about you now because you're quiet and you're not saying all that you feel.

But you going to say what I couldn't say, and you going to do what I couldn't do. Hallelujah! Because I'm going through a shift and a change, and you've been trying to figure out, how, Lord, how, how do I serve my Father? I love my Father.

I can hear you. I can hear you.

But God hears you too.

He's going make you everything that you desire to be. And I know you still use the prayer room that we created in that house you live in. That same anointing that made me what I am is the same anointing that's going to make you into what God wants you to be. I left it there for you. You had to live there. You had to be there alone. That's your meeting place. But you're going from a caterpillar to a butterfly.

There's a metamorphosis taking place in your life, and all the frustration has been because of the metamorphosis.

You even ask God, God, am I losing my mind? No, No, you're getting his mind. God takes care of what belongs to him. You trust him, let him do what he promised he would do and be who he promised you he would be. God is not a man that he should lie, nor the son son of man that he should repent? Has he not said it? Will it not come to pass?

I hear in the heavens, it is so.

It is so. It is so. She couldn't die in the wreck because her purpose was stronger than the wreck, the accident. She may have been broken up, but her purpose is sure. I don't know what you've been thinking about. But I just sense that God's about to raise that girl up in an unusual way. Even while I was speaking over my daughter, you were saying, I want that for my daughter too. God says you have it, and she's going to win. Should have kept—

we should have kept her when we had an opportunity. His time is up.

It's it's over. We will have no more access to what belongs to you because God has anointed you, but he's anointed your seed as well. It was a hard decision. That's why I prolonged it. It was, it was just a hard— it's a hard decision because church folks just so mean.

We just don't care.

But the Lord told me to bring you under, pour into you while you're playing for me. Wow. I see almost like a rose opening up and budding, and God's going to cause you to open up and bud in such a way that you think you have an audience now. You've not seen the audience that God is bringing. Hallelujah! I hear Kirk Franklin asking about you. I don't know how that's going to happen, but I hear Kirk Franklin asking about you, and he's going to ask about you, because God has ordained a moment for you that nothing can take away from.

Nothing can take away from. Nothing can take away from.

Your critics are going to hate that they lifted up their voices against you. God's going to vindicate every single word like he word in a 500-page book. Every word. He's got you.

Hallelujah! I'm going to get out of the way.

I need some voice for tomorrow.

God bless you, Apostle. Come on, give God praise! Praise the Lord! Come on, clap it together with God! Come on, if you realize who the King and the kingdom, cuz you can't have a kingdom without a king. So that means the kingdom lives in you with the King, and all of the resources of the kingdom are in you as well. Come on, open your mouth really quick and give God praise for what we just received tonight. You want to leave this place knowing, hallelujah, that when the King comes, he moves in with all of his stuff. Come Y'all give God glory for the word. That's what I need you to do right here in this moment. Remember I said in the beginning, wide mouths open wide doors. Come on, I need you to open up your mouth and give glory to the King. When I started praying earlier, I said we're not going ankle deep, knee deep, waist deep, but we're getting all the way in. In. And as Apostle was preaching tonight, he took us all the way in. I need you to act like you're all the way in tonight and open up your mouth and give God a praise for his word. Come on, y'all can do better than that. We going to get out of here, but I need you to bless God. That's what I heard when Apostle was winding up. God said, son, just get up and cause them to take action in worship and begin to bless me. Now he said there will be an exchange in between heaven and earth as you worship. God says he's going to make an exchange between your worship and heaven. Come on, it's just— it's just for the worship. Come on, open your mouth. Hallelujah! I can't be a chili before you. You got to know you need to see. Here's something particular about worship. Anybody can praise God. The Bible says let everything that hath breath praise, but them that worship must worship him in spirit and in truth. So what happens, proskenatos in Greek, when you worship, you find a place of truth and you prostrate yourself to that truth. And it's not predicated on what he's done, but it's based on who he is. And so I just need you just for about 30 more seconds, and we're gonna get out of here. Here, cuz we going to receive something, and God needs to be glorified for what we received. So, so for one moment, I just want you to open your mouth wide. Mouths open like doors and give God your best worship. Come on, give me your best worship. Lord, we love you. Thank you. Inside you, there is no heaven. Come on, worship!
