KINGDOM HEIRS, PART 2. | DR. MIKE WOODS, SR. |. DAY 8 OF 40 DAYS OF INFALLIBLE PROOF

In this live teaching, Dr. Mike Woods Sr. delivers Day 8 of his “40 Days of Infallible Proof” series, focusing on the theme “Kingdom Heirs – Part 2.” He opens with a personal update and a repeated exhortation to share the video, emphasizing that sharing is a spiritual act that brings blessing. He grounds the teaching in Scripture (Acts 1:3, Colossians 1:12‑13, Galatians 4:4‑7, Proverbs 13:22, 2 Corinthians 5, 1 Peter 1:3‑4) to argue that every believer, by virtue of being born again, is an heir to an incorruptible, eternal inheritance in the Kingdom of God. Woods warns against “grace abuse” and calls for personal holiness, purity, and chastity as prerequisites for accessing that inheritance. He illustrates the concept with the historical example of John D. Rockefeller’s early transfer of wealth to his son, drawing a parallel to God’s desire to give believers their inheritance now, not after death. Throughout, he urges listeners to participate in corporate prayer at 5 p.m., fast from midnight to 3 a.m., text the church’s number, donate via Cash App, and continually share the message. The tone is highly enthusiastic, persuasive, and urgent, aiming to motivate the audience to adopt a kingdom‑mindset, live in holiness, and actively engage in the 40‑day program.

I hadn't seen you guys since Monday, and I do apologize, but I was traveling from Vegas on Monday, and I actually— my flight got delayed like 3 or 4 times. My God. And I ended up getting home like 8 o'clock yesterday morning, so I slept in a lot of the day to rest We had an amazing time in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was absolutely phenomenal. I'm super excited to be here though today. I wanna teach, listen, and I told you guys, when you don't see me, especially at 5 o'clock prayer during these 40 days, make sure if I'm not on at 5 for corporate prayer, make sure you go ahead and pray yourself. Because at the end of the day, guys, we're gonna be dedicated to this. We're gonna move through this 40 days with precision, speed, and acceleration and supernatural manifestations of infallible proof. Listen, have you guys shared this yet? I need you guys to go ahead and share this now. Praise the name of God. I promise you, uh, you're going to be a blessing to somebody. Tag somebody in the comments below. Go ahead and share this. I want you to become a sharing all-star today. I believe you can. Glory to God. And I believe that you will be found in favor with God because you choose to share. Praise God. And I want you to understand something. Listen, God is not in— by no means intimidated. Glory to the name of God. When we support the things that pertain to him, matter of fact, direct opposite of that, he wants you to be engaged and involved with his work and his plan. So please go ahead, guys, share this right now. I promise you, you're going to be blessed if you do. I'm not going to be long today, but I do— glory to the name of God— want to take my time and teach this. So I want to give you an opportunity, glory to God, to share this and get it out. We're going to pray in a moment, but please, guys, by all means, share this. Uh, let's make sure this word gets out, and let's make sure that you are a blessing to somebody else. Again, the Bible says we're blessed to be a blessing. I'll say that again. The Bible says we're blessed to be a blessing. And so I want to encourage you and admonish you to just go ahead and be a blessing to somebody right now. I'm going to share it with a few, few people. And, uh, I want you to do the same. And we're going to just take a few moments to do this. Glory to God. Let's get this word out. This word is going to be tremendously powerful today. God's going to meet us here. Praise God. And I promise you, you don't know— you don't want to miss one part of it, right? I mean, not one part of this do you want to miss. Praise God. So let's, let's do it. Let's, let's walk in it.

I'm always grateful to teach the word of God, and I'm ready to pray. I'm telling you, there's going to be— oh yeah, God, I hear you. On Monday, I think the Lord told He was going to give us 7 releases during that teaching, and he did. I'm telling you, the tidal wave is coming again today. This prophetic stream that is open over my life, glory to the name of God, it just didn't show up. It's been open for some 30 years now. And I promise you, when the Lord begins to speak, you better take heed to what he says. I've seen the manifestation of God's prophetic promises over and over again in my— Ashi abandoto kosia. Yes, God, in my life and ministry. And I trust you today is no different. Hi, Psalmist Belvin, God bless you, woman of God. Welcome. And again, you guys do me a favor, share this, tag someone in the comments below. I promise you, I promise you, glory to God, if you do that and you move in obedience, you're going to be blessed. Glory to God. Well, let's get into this again. This is day 8 of our 40 Days of Infallible Proof. And what do you mean by that, Michael Woods? Well, our foundation text for this is found in Acts 1:3, and it simply says, to whom also he showed himself alive after his passion. So after his life, his death, his burial, and his resurrection, those things are considered to be the passion of Jesus, the Bible says he showed himself alive. And the scripture says here, by many infallible proofs being seen of them 40 days. And so we've adopted this as a— oh my God— extension of the resurrection to carry into our life. Watch this, even beyond these 40 days, I believe as people of God We should be living in the realm of infallible proof. So these 40 days, we're praying every day at 5. Even if you don't see me, we're praying corporately or individually. I would love for you to join me anytime we go corporately. If you're on our text list, you're going to get a text every time we go live corporately. Praise God. Now I want you to understand this. When we pray at 5, we're agreeing around the focus of infallible proof. We want to see infallible proof, proof, evidence that cannot be denied in our lives, in our family, in our faith, in our finances over these next 40 days. Listen, I'm already seeing it. And if you're getting testimony of this, please testify. Email us. Let us know. Inbox us. Hey, Doc, I'm on this 40-day journey with you and this is what God has already done. It's just day 8. Glory to God. We want to share your testimony with others as well. Praise God. God is a good God. So I need you to share this. Let's get it out because God's going to do something these 40 days. And the Bible says, and speaking the things pertaining to the kingdom of God. So this is why we're speaking to you every day for 40 days. All right. And we're speaking things that pertain specifically to the kingdom of God, the rule, the government, the reign, and the throne of God, and as it relates to you, his citizens and his people. So listen, you don't want to miss one day. We're fasting for 40 days from midnight to 3 every day. We're fasting. Glory to the name of God. And if you want information, just go to our website. Praise God. Hi, Toya, God bless you. Good afternoon. God bless you, Apostle Hill. Love you, man. Good to see you. Listen, please go to our website at roddachurch.com. Glory to the name of God. Forward slash 40 days. And let me tell you, you'll get all the information you need right there. So let's get into this, man. Today we're talking about Kingdom Heirs Part 2. And again, I'm super amped to teach this. Praise God. And let me start by saying this, guys. We have to realize something, that just because we go to church, all right, it doesn't necessarily mean that we have activated kingdom life in our life. Or watch this, just because we got saved— the, the Bible says that Jesus taught the kingdom. The things that pertain to the kingdom have to be taught. You have no idea that this kingdom exists or how to assess it if— hear me— you haven't been taught it. So this is why we're taking our time daily to teach these principles. I want to break the back of religion. Hear me, I, I really do today. I want to break the back of religion. God bless you, Patina Harris. Welcome, you guys coming in. Please share it. Glory to God. I want to break the back of religion, and I want to make sure, glory to God, that you are able to actually assess what's available to you, which in reality, this is, you know, one of the purposes of this teaching. We're teaching this Glory to the name of God. One, so that you can renew your mind and see yourself as an heir in the kingdom of God. Two, we're teaching this so you can discover— this is our— this is the purpose why we're teaching this every day, so you can discover what's included in your inheritance, right? So we're going to read the will, praise God. And then three, we're teaching this so you can learn how to take that inheritance and live it out. Because again, being in church does not guarantee that you're living out the kingdom. I know so many people— I've been in church all my life— that are churchgoers, that are religious and redundant and repudiated in how they do things. Whether you're charismatic or Pentecostal, Baptist, Methodist, Presbyterian, it don't matter. You could be a charismatic and speak in tongues and still be religious and not be walking in the things that pertain to the kingdom of God. Oh, oh, oh, oh, Michael Lyris Woods, you're gonna get in trouble early, man. You'll get in trouble early. Lord have mercy. But it's just the truth, because at the end of the day, guys, God never called us to be a religious entity, but he actually called us to really be his children. Hallelujah. That walk by faith and not by sight. Glory to God! That are living manifestations of the kingdom of God. So today we're talking about Heirs of the Kingdom, Kingdom Heirs Part 2. And listen, man, I need you to stay with me today, right? And I need you to share this because this word is hot, man. I'm telling you, because you gotta tap in, you know. It's not about you know, following the most popular guy or lady on the internet. Those things are fine, but if you're not for yourself— hear me— tapping into the things that pertain to God, there's a problem. So let's pray, let's get into this. Father, in Jesus' name, I thank you for today. I thank you for every person that is assembled around this live, that will watch it live, even by replay, God. I pray that this word will break the embryo of the spirit man and that this spermatic prophetic utterance would cause your people to become impregnated with kingdom reality. And God, that it will cause them to immediately go into labor and give birth to the principles that are being released. And so, Father, we give you praise for that. Father, may your people be blessed by you and never impressed by me. And I thank you for that. Now, God, you be glorified, and may the devil— skikama, brum, dedekunskete, oh, shimande— may the devil be horrified, and we place him under our feet. In the name of Jesus, amen. Boy, I feel God here today. So let's look at this, guys. Acts 1:3, we read that. Let's go to Colossians 1:12. Let's real quick Let's go to Colossians 1:12-13. I want to read this as some background really quick. The Bible says, giving thanks unto the Father which has made us— listen to this— meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light. Wait a minute. So first of all, Paul says to the Colossians, let's give thanks to the Father. And I want to pause right here and challenge you to just throw your hands up right where you are and begin to give God worship and praise and thanks because he's afforded you access or the opportunity to have a right to the resources of the King and his kingdom. And he's given you the opportunity to really tap into your inheritance. So Father, we just worship you right now. And Father, we just give you glory. Hallelujah. And we give you honor and we give you praise. And we thank you, Father, because you have given us a real inheritance. It's not the figment of our imagination. It's not something we're just reading and that was made up. This thing is real, God, and I thank you for that now. So Father, we worship you for that inheritance in the name of Jesus. Whoosh! Glory to God! Glory to God! I didn't type in the comments, the inheritance is mine. And I dare you type, thank you Jesus for my inheritance. Come on, type it now. Glory to God! Thank you Jesus for my inheritance. You need to confess that even though you may not be experiencing it right now. You need to confess it out of your mouth because I want you to know it actually is yours. Glory to God! Hallelujah! Thank you, Jesus! We give you praise. Hallelujah! And I need y'all to be superstar taggers and sharers like Yvonne Mitchell. Glory to God! And tag as many people as you know in this. Oh my God! Glory to God! We give you praise and we give you glory in this live today. So you are— we thank God. Let me— I want to stay focused here because I want you to get this word. In fact, let me take the music down so you can get this word. Glory to God. Listen, because I, I will go in all day, I promise you, and I need to make sure I slow down and teach this. I'm telling you, I will, because I'm just right there. Glory to God. I've been— I mean, I just stay— I live in a perpetual place with God. Well, to the point that carnality on certain levels, it frustrates me because I'm just, I'm just right in a place where I don't— I can't even scroll my timeline and read stuff because it just agitates me to see the carnality and the flesh on parade. I can't do it. So here we go, here we go. Giving thanks unto the Father which has made us meet to be partakers in the heritage, in the inheritance of the saints in light. So watch this, he's made us meet, that means he's qualified us Oh my God, I need you to type in the comments, I'm qualified. Oh, come on, type in the comments, I'm qualified to be a partaker of the kingdom. You are qualified. Who did it? The Father did it through the efficacious, vicarious, substitutionary work of Jesus Christ. The blood of Jesus makes us qualified. Thank God for the blood. Hallelujah! To be partakers of the saints in light. But let's keep reading. The scripture says, who has delivered us from the power of darkness and has translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son. So in order for me to move— here we go— in this kingdom inheritance and to operate at the highest level of reception when it comes to my inheritance— hear me, oh my God, oh my God— I have to come out of darkness. And many people are not experiencing the rights, the privileges that the citizen of the kingdom of God is privileged to have. Because, hear me, whoo-wee, they're still in darkness. Because it takes you receiving the King— Lord have mercy, oh my God, oh my God— and allowing God to take full control of your life and aligning yourself with his principles and his ways of living And some of you charismatic folk would call what I'm saying— come on, oh my God— you would call this legalistic because I'm telling you, you need to be holy. But holiness is still right. Purity is still right. Chastity is still right. And when you choose to say, okay, his grace is sufficient for me, so I'm still gonna just do what I want to do you're not practicing holiness, and you're trying to operate in a realm of what I call grace abuse. And many people who operate in this realm of grace abuse never experience the kingdom at its highest level of expression in their life, which is access for real to the things that the king has and the resources that are in the kingdom. You must be holy. You can't run around here fornicating if you're single lady, single man, and think that you're going to have access in total to the things that pertain to the kingdom. Oh my God, I'm so glad God delivered me from the spirit of fornication. I'm not coming down on you because I had that demon. I'm just telling you right now, let me just be totally honest with you. I had it, was saved, in the church, preaching, pastoring. Being an apostle, casting out devils, and couldn't break through the way I needed to because I was struggling in my flesh. And let me tell you, married people, something that's committing adultery, you, you're causing a problem in your covenant. Your marriage is in strain financially. Your marriage is strained in the realm of love because you out here cheating. And you're out here violating the covenant that you made with your wife or your husband, and then you're violating the covenant that you made before God. And so God cuts you off of access because you must be translated— oh my God— out of darkness into the kingdom of his dear Son. There's no fornication in the kingdom of his dear Son. Why? Because there's no sin in the kingdom of his dear Son. Come on, church. Yeah, you could be a churchgoer and fornicate, and you're going to continue to live beneath your privilege and play your grace card. Oh my God. And you continue to play that grace card. Well, God know my heart. Yeah, he do. And what he does is he reserves the resources and the access to the deeper realms of the spirit, to those who operate in purity and holiness. Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy. Oh my God. Oh, Tiansaya. Oh, Kaba. Brunska Tabansen Robaya. Yes, God today, he wants you to be holy. Come on, church, you got to make up in your mind that you want access to this. He said he translated us. So if y'all hear me teach, y'all understand I translate a lot of words from, from the, from the Greek to English or English to Greek, whichever applies, or Hebrew to English or English to Hebrew. That means those are two different languages. Watch this. And a lot of times you will see that the definition in Greek The original language is far weightier and detailed than the English translation. So when I am translated into the kingdom, watch this, I'm actually translated into a more weightier, a more loftier experience in God. Oh, oh, oh, oh my God. So when God actually translates me, He puts me into a deeper encounter, a deeper experience. Watch this, because he brings me back— oh my God— to my original Adamic and Edenic state. I'm talking about infallible proof, guys. This is where God wants to take us. Good God, can I get through this? Ubanzai. Yes, God. We give you praise, God. Y'all, have you shared this yet? I mean, really, have you shared this yet? God have mercy on our soul. Good God from Zion. So let's go to Galatians 4. Hallelujah! Let's go to Galatians 4. Praise God. Verses 4 through 7. The Bible says, and I'm just going to teach this and prophetically plow through this like the Lord gave it to me. Just touch yourself and say, I'm an heir of the kingdom. And say, I'm pure. Say, I am qualified for my inheritance. I told you in message 1 that you are, glory to the name of God, heir to the throne of a king who is the wealthiest king on earth. God have mercy. And I was explaining to you that I never went to the reading of a will in my family because most of my people never left wills, they left bills, right? But in the end of the day, God wants you to be in a position where you can actually leave a will and an inheritance. But you gotta tap into what's yours and stop making it hard living in sin Sin is the Greek word hermēsia, which means to miss the mark or come short. Let me help you. You may not be fornicating or committing adultery, right? But if you're coming short of your purpose and not living in your destiny, you're still missing the mark, right? So that's still what? Sin. Okay, so this is why you got to find yourself tapping into a place where you have a continuity of habits that are kingdom-based, that constantly usher you into the space where God lives and where God dwells. Lord have mercy. Okay, Galatians 4, let's read verses 4 through 7. Stay with me, please. Share this, guys. If you haven't shared this yet, share it. The Bible says Galatians 4, verse 4 through 7. The Bible says, but when the fullness of time was come, God sent forth his Son— listen to me— made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. Wait a minute. So Jesus came again and performed his efficacious, vicarious substitutionary redemptive work of Calvary to buy us back to the Father so that we can be called sons. So again, the cross is not about bunnies. The cross is not about eggs. Oh my God, the cross— hear me, the cross, hear me good— it's not about Easter. The cross is about sonship. It's about redeeming us back into our proper place as kingdom family. Oh my God, as the family of the King. That's ultimately the whole purpose of Jesus's death. The resurrection is designed to give us power to push into that. Let's keep reading. The Bible says, oh my God, that We are adopted as sons. Wait a minute, let me just deal with that adoption real quick. I have never in my life— I'll be 53 years old this year— heard of an unwanted adoption. Anybody that adopts has to pick who they adopt. What I love about God is he picked me. Me, even when he saw all of the flaws that I would have, and he knowing the struggles I would have to work through, he still adopted me. Wait a minute, he did the same thing for you. I know you think you never had any issues, but you did. Glory to God. And Jesus looked beyond what he saw. There's nothing about you that surprises God. And this ought to put high value on the work of the cross because of what he's done in spite of you. And this is what ought to make you respond to him not legalistically, but in a lifestyle of holiness. Because when you think about the fact that God died for you and then adopted you as a son into his kingdom He wanted you. When other people have rejected you, he wanted you. When other people turn their back on you, he wanted you. When other people wanted no part of who you are and what you're trying to accomplish, he wanted you. Oh my God, he— ata shi andorobo. I dare you to touch yourself and say, he loves me. And he wants me. Glory to God, he loves me and he wants me. Glory to God, I want you to know he loves you and he wants you. He said he's adopted us as sons, and because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. So watch this, the Spirit of the Son which is the Holy Ghost— glory to God— is in our heart, not 6 inches below the collarbone, but in the center of our moral being, in our soul. And the Spirit of the Father God in Jesus Christ cries out and says, Abba, our Father, which means he collectively— this is not a prayer, watch this— he's crying out So it reverberates in our— what? He's in our heart, our soul. So we're tripartite beings. We're body, we're soul, we're spirit. So this is not in our spirit. He's in our soul, in our— where our intellect lies. Oh boy, where our passions, our thoughts. Oh boy, where our five senses are. And he's crying, Abba, Father, constantly, and in your soul. Oh my God, the Spirit of the Son is crying out, Abba, Father! Abba, Father! And why is he doing that? He wants to remind your loins, the other parts of your trichotomy, your body, your loins, your— oh my God, your soul, glory to God, and your spirit that collectively He's Abba Father. He's our Father. What does that mean? Abba means our Father, Papa in Greek, which literally means the one who provides, the one who takes care of, the one who leads and controls. Oh my God. So in your heart, the Son's spirit is crying out that God is Lord of my body. Stop making excuses. Glory to the name of God for your flesh. Stop making excuses for sickness in your body. Glory to God. Stop making excuses for coming short in your dreams. You have at your disposal the Father, and there's a cry in your belly, whoo, that constantly reminds you that he's God and that he's Lord of all. Please like, share, and comment on this, guys. He's crying out, Abba, Father, wherefore thou art no more servant but a son. Wait a minute, wait a minute, Mike Woods. No more servant but a son. Glory to God. So we're in the family of God. Glory to God. We're in the family of God. Listen, you and I became heirs to a fortune when we were born again. Over my God, 40 years ago when I gave my life to God, I was a little boy, got on a bus that came in my neighborhood for Sunday school, went to a church. Glory to the name of God. I'll never forget, uh, Evangelist Wilkinson out of New York. He would bring these buses down and get churches and pick up kids. And I got on that bus, just a little 8-year-old boy, didn't know what I was doing, but I wanted to go to Sunday school. They had candy, glory to God. So I got on, went to Sunday school, went to church. The preacher made an altar call for somebody to be saved. I went down, gave my life to God that moment as an 8-year-old boy. I became heir. Oh my God, to the throne of Jesus, which means I was now born again into the richest family ever known. I was born into the royal family that owns and operates the universe. I received inheritance, my God, so vast. It was going to take me all of eternity to comprehend it. And guess what? The same goes for you. Whenever you got saved, that moment you became a part of the richest family ever. I don't care what your natural family has, but I want you to understand you're now a part of the richest family ever. Oh boy. So stop— I know religious people don't want this, they don't like this, but the reality is we have access so we can advance the kingdom. Come on, church. Oh my God. So you are in the air. So I say to you today, I, I release this over your life. God says to tell you, open up your heart. And open up your ears and receive your inheritance. Yeah, God, I hear that. For the Holy Spirit would say, the reason your ear gate must be open, for you must now flush out the toxic culture that has taught you against my ability to cause you to inherit what I own. And I, the Lord— thank you, God— say to you, open your heart and allow me to sit on the throne in the center of your life and receive me as your king. And as you receive me, you receive your inheritance. He says, I need you to draw closer in prayer. I need you to draw closer in worship. Gone are the days of lukewarmness and lackadaisicalness. God says today, I'm calling you to a fervor and a fire and a passion to seek my face like never before. I heard the Lord say, run to me, for I am your King. I am your answer. The world system, the world's way is not your answer, is not your way. For I, said the Lord, am your answer. Receive your inheritance. My God, my God. Let's go to Proverbs. I gotta move. Ushkatavandiosi. Proverbs 13:22. Proverbs 13:22. Oh my God, the Bible says this. It says, a good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children. My God. Oriansa. A good man leaves an inheritance— my God, today— to his children's children. Wait, I know y'all have heard that before. So if God— wait a minute— requires and expects a good man who is human by nature to leave an inheritance to his children. Wait a minute, what more do you think he has for his own children? He would never tell you to do something, first of all, that he hasn't done or will do. He says a good man— God is a good God. Yes, he is. The word good there is banah in Hebrew. It means profitable. A profitable man. Ask a businessman to define profit. He's going to tell you that that's left over after the expenses of the business have been paid and covered. So God says here he wants you to live in profit margin so you can leave an inheritance to your children's children. Well, how, Michael, was I getting profit margin? I'm glad you asked. You got to tap into the King and your inheritance. You— again, I say it again— you are a kingdom heir. So you got to tap into his mentality, his mindset. Watch this, concerning how you are to produce wealth and what you're to use the wealth for. It's clear here in this text that one of the things we're to use our wealth 4 is leaving an inheritance of my children's— for my children's children. Can I tell you something? I'm so grateful because I couldn't always say this, but I can stand flat-footed and say that my children are going to be okay, and their children are going to be okay, and even their children and their children are going to be okay when I die. Because I got— I decided to get enough sense to stop spending all my money. Y'all not talking. And do the right things in terms of investing, in terms of setting up things to make sure that the people who are connected to me, even my— oh my God— are going to be so blessed once I leave the earth. Now you got to tap into the kingdom resources and accept that you are heir. What's an heir, Michael Lyris Woods? I'm glad you asked. It is one that receives an inheritance by right of birth. So my children's children— not even my children, my marriage and my blended family, all of my children. So from Peyton to Tyler, Michael Jr., Ben, Alex, and even my grandbaby Kenley, and anybody else that shows up, they're going to be blessed because they're going to be an heir to how God has blessed me. Now I need you to understand something. Glory to God. By just by the fact that they were born in the right position, they have to do nothing else. Think about that with God, people. Just think about that with God. Think about that with God. I'm gonna let that marinate for a minute. You ain't got to do nothing else. Glory to God. I see my wife is on here. I love you, wife. Glory to God. Listen, let me tell y'all something. Glory to Jesus. God, he wants you to be able— hallelujah— to do things that you could not normally do on your own simply by accepting that you are an heir just because you were born in the kingdom. If you're born again, I want you to type some worship hands under this comments, please. Just lift them little worship hands in your emoji, type them. Because if you're born again, just lift your hands and say thank you, Lord, because that's all you had to do to walk out this inheritance. Just be born again, and you just now got to walk out the faith and the relationship to receive the inheritance by birth. My God, listen, let me give you an example of something. Long before— good God Almighty, hallelujah— long before John Rockefeller died. Glory to God. Hear me, his children were already blessed by right of birth. Y'all know who John Rockefeller was, right? One of the richest man— men to ever live. And he actually began giving his estate to his children. Here it is, before he died. And this is as God continues to evolve what he's doing. I see— so I confess every day, me and my wife, my wife talks about this, that I am a billionaire. I have the innovation, I have the ideas to produce billions. And we talk about this a lot, and she sees my work ethic, she sees the things that God does for me. And we— I'm going to get there, you know, I know it, you know. And as I begin to unevolve to that place, I begin to think about how, just like Rockefeller, I'm going to start disseminating to my children my estate even before I die, because I want to see some activity from them on how they will use the money. Well, anyway, Rockefeller he wrote his son a letter. And first statement he said, he said, "Dear son, I'm giving you 166,072 shares of the stock of the Standard Oil Company." That's a lot of money, right? 'Cause the stock was going for like $1,000 a share. So it was a lot of money. Alright? Then he said, while he's alive now, he said, "Dear son," "Dear son, I'm giving you $20,688,000 in par value in bonds." He also said, "Dear son, I'm giving you a check for $500,000 that will be available for use next Monday." Now this was a litmus test to see how he would handle the 166,000 shares. To $20 million in bonds and $500,000 in cash. Because you really want to make sure that the people you're sharing your inheritance with handle it correctly. And if you see them err, you want to teach them right. By the early 1920s, listen to this, John D. Rockefeller had turned over close to half a billion dollars to his son, and with it the stewardship of his great fortune. So even before he left the earth, Rockefeller Jr. was already living in the responsibility of the inheritance. I'm going somewhere with this, stay with me. Listen, He said to his son, I am indeed beyond measure to have a son that I can trust to do this work with the tenderest affection. Love your father. Can I tell you something? If John Rockefeller had that attitude toward his son, God's attitude has to be far superior. And God is saying, I don't want you to wait till you die to get this inheritance. Oh my God, he said, I want to give you this inheritance even right now. Lord have mercy. Lord, I wish I had some help here. Glory. Matter of fact, let's just go to 2 Corinthians 5. I want to show you. Just, just say, just say this. Say, because I was born I have access to the King and his stuff. Glory to God. We're heirs by birth. Come on, we're heirs by birth. Glory to God. My God. Let's read this. Let's read this. 2 Corinthians 5:16-17. It says this, it says, henceforth now Listen to me. We should know no man after the flesh, even as we have known them before. And neither should we know Christ after the flesh, even as we have known him before. So watch this. First of all, you cannot allow people to keep you stagnated and stuck. See, what God wants to do is move your dream, your vision, your life from concept to circulation. See, anything in circulation has a palpitation, it has a heartbeat. So God wants to move your life from just being imagination and things you'd like to do, things you'd like to accomplish, to actually being in circulation where it can actually be encountered and experienced by those— oh my God— that choose to engage and partake in the anointing that's on your life and the kingdom principles you're walking out from concept to circulation. He wants to give your life a heartbeat other than the one in your chest. Glory to God! He wants your life to beat— glory to the name of God— to the rhythm of heaven. To the rhythm of glory. Glory to the name of God. So that when people encounter you, they encounter the King and his way of doing and being right. So we don't know— let— don't let people know you after the flesh. Don't let them say, oh, that's just Mike, that's just Mike. I, I got family members I know, they just kind of judge me because that's just Mike. They try to— because they have no revelation of who I am, and I really don't care because what I've done is learned to live for the audience of one. I don't live to please my mama. I don't live to please my dad. I love both of them. I don't live to please my friends. I don't even live to please my wife Alicia. I love her with everything in me, but I live for the audience of one because I've learned that when it's all said and done If God says he's gonna be with you, he gonna be with you. Glory to God. And he's got my back for real. He's all in when it comes to our dreams and vision. And so you gotta learn to live to please him, because you can mess around and let people who are judging you after the flesh keep you stuck because you buy into their definition of Oh my God, you buy into their desire for you. You buy into what they want to see happen in your life. Oh God, and in reality, God, I got to get through. I got to get through, man. Oh God, they have oskiamande de dianso rabakiaia, nothing to give you, and they have no inheritance. Glory to the name of God. Nothing in comparison to what God has. You better live to please him. Don't let people judge you according to the flesh. Let me keep reading. If any man— that's you and I— be in Christ, if any man interpenetrate Christ— so being in Christ means to interpenetrate his person, oh yeah, his way, oh my God, and his Oh, purpose for your life. So his person, his purpose, his way, or his plan. His purpose, his person, his purpose, and his plan. That sounds better, right? Okay, let's use that. That's some good alliteration. His purpose, hallelujah. His plan. Oh my God, that's what you want. You want Good God from Zion. Lord, I feel you. See, the Holy Ghost be interrupting me. I'm glad he does though. The Holy Spirit just told me to tell somebody right where you are, lift up your hands. Matter of fact, I heard him say lift your right hand and take your left hand and put it in your belly. Because the kidney issues— yes, Lord, I hear you— that the doctor diagnosed you with God said to tell you— yes, Lord— that by virtue of your submission to him and your loyalty to him, and because you're listening to these words right now, because he sent his word and it healed them, God says he's bringing complete healing and regulation to your kidneys. And even those of you that have high blood pressure, your high blood pressure is connected to a malfunction in your kidneys. God says, while you put your hand in your belly, I'm healing you right now in the name of Jesus. So be it. His purpose, his passion, his plan— that's being in Christ. You're inside of his purpose for your life, his plan for your life. Oh my God. And his passion for your life. Listen, you got to trust that he's in control. If any man be in Christ, inner penetrate him. The Bible says once you inner penetrate— like, okay, if I inner penetrated my walls, that means I become one with the walls, right? So once I'm inside of the wall— this is crazy— you can't tell the difference between me and the wall because I've inner penetrated the wall. Oh my God. So God says he wants you to interpenetrate him so that when men look at you and the manifestation of kingdom in your life, they cannot tell the difference between the king and you. Oh boy. Oh my God. Oh my God. So when it comes down to how you live, Pete, you need to be a reflection of your interpenetration of Christ. Because what God's trying to establish is a— oh my God— uh, inoperability. Inoperability. Yes, thank God for these words. Inoperability. What does that mean, Michael? That means that you have the ability to operate inside and with cohesion with others. So God says he wants you to have an inoperability where you can work with him, right, with your gifts and the gifts, the gifts that he's given you. You can work with him to help others become operable in their ability with you to advance inoperability. God have mercy. He— that's what he needs in the kingdom. Nobody looking down on others. But all of us, iron sharpening iron, interoperability says I can give you something that you don't have, you can give me something that I don't have. But when you, Omega Preacher, are in your corner, and, or, and small preacher who trying to be a mega preacher can't be big because the little guy, you're not talking because you won't be interoperable with others. Inoperability means that we can work together. I give you what I have, you give me what you have, and together we manifest the inheritance of the kingdom. But the moment you believe that you know it all and I can't teach you something and only you could teach me something, we got a problem. Glory to the name of God. Iron sharpens iron. Listen, I was talking to my brother who preached for us while I was in Vegas this past Sunday, Superintendent Pastor Marlon Montgomery, my brother who I love. And, uh, we was talking about how our friendship has evolved and the exchange. There are things that I glean from Pastor Montgomery, you know, and people will try to look at ministry aspects of that. That's— that has nothing to do with— as a man Uh, as the wisdom that he carries, a lot of things I glean from him and a lot of things he gets from me. It's an exchange, and we don't look down on one another. We humbly receive each other, and that's what brothers should be able to do— humbly receive each other and work together without trying to feel like and flaunt what you know. Listen, that's not how this works. Works. Inoperability says I can work with you so that the kingdom can be stronger and the kingdom can be better. Lord have mercy, Jesus. Let me get out of here, man. Let me get out of here. Let me get out of here because I'm worrying y'all, right? So let's read 1 Peter. Let's go to 1 Peter. This is my last scripture, y'all. Y'all stay with me. Y'all stay with me. Y'all stay with me. Glory to God. 1 Peter. Y'all stay with the preacher. I know I'm going a little long today, but I want to get this out and I'm taking my time because you need to be an heir. You need to walk in this, man. You need to walk in your kingdom inheritance and manifest it out of your life into the world, out of your relationship with God. 1 Peter chapter 1, verses 3 and 4. The Bible said, blessed be God. I want to tell you today, God is blessed. Hallelujah! Blessed be God. Glory to God. God is blessed. So the next time you get frustrated, I dare you just shout, blessed be God. Oh my God, God is blessed. What does that word blessed mean? Blessed is makarios in Greek. It means to be stamped with an indwelt quality— watch this— of overflow. Increase and joy. Overflow, increase, enjoy. It's amazing how those words are in the same word. So God says he's blessed, and if he's blessed and if you're in his inheritance and you are heir, you're blessed too. So blessed be God, blessed be you. The next time you get frustrated by the bill, just lay your hands on and say, blessed be God. Well, good. Matter of fact, when you leave this live Get your mortgage papers out, lay hands on them and say, blessed be God. Get your car— oh my God— situation out and say, blessed be God. Oh my God, he's blessed. God is blessed. And Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy has begotten us again unto a lively hope— watch this— by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. Again, It's not just him rising and getting up. This thing came forth to give us a lively hope so we can live every day with hope. Listen, that we have an inheritance that is incorruptible and undefiled. And this is why you got to stay pure, because the inheritance is incorruptible. It doesn't fade away. It lasts forever. It's eternal. It's not going anywhere. And watch this, it's undefiled, it's pure, it's clean. Ooh wee! That's why you got to stay in the realm of purity. Keep your thoughts pure. Listen, I mean, and the Bible says this: thoughts will exalt themselves against the knowledge of God. But the Bible said you got to cast down those imaginations. You ought to have a little man in your mind that's got on a deputy uniform, a sheriff's deputy uniform, that every time a thought come to your mind that ain't of God, he takes that thought, places it under arrest, throws it in jail, and throws away the key. Because at the end of the day, listen to me, the thoughts are going to come, but you gotta take control of them. It becomes sin and impure when you entertain right? So you want to make sure that you're not defiling yourself so that— because the Bible said he does not partake of an unclean temple— so you can receive the inheritance and that fading not away, reserved— watch this— in heaven for you. It doesn't mean when you die and go to heaven you're going to get it. It means that it's in heaven waiting for you to access it. I know, I know you thought, oh well, I'm just going to get the inheritance, I'm going to get my mansion and walk around him. No. No, no, no, listen, it's in heaven right now, reserved, waiting on you as a citizen to tap into alignment with the family so you can assess the things that pertain to the kingdom of God. Listen again, we were born into the kingdom, the royal family that owns and operates the universe. Listen, let me read the 'a' clause in the Amplified. It says, born anew into an inheritance which is beyond the reach of change. In other words, this inheritance cannot be altered, it cannot be changed, it cannot be taken away from you. You just have to get in position to receive it. Oh my God, y'all, are y'all getting anything out of this? I'm closing, y'all stay with Y'all stay with me. Glory to God. We bless you, God. We thank you. He's given— NIV— he's given us new birth into an inheritance. So we're born again to inherit. We're born again to inherit. We're born again to inherit. Oh my God, say that with me. Say, I'm born again to inherit. Oh my God, today, listen, in Jesus Christ. And I'm closing, y'all, I'm closing for real. Matter of fact, I'm turning music off. Turn music off. I'm closing because I could teach this, I could teach this all day. I'm glad I got 40 days to teach it. Glory to God, I got, I got 40 days, y'all. I got 40 days to teach this. I'm so glad. Because I want you to get it. In Christ, we are heirs to a vast fortune just because we were born again into the royal family. Let's pray. Father, in Jesus' name, I thank you, dear God, for every person under the sound of my voice. I thank you for this word today, and I decree and declare, God, that it would again break open the embryo in their spirit man, and that this word will come alive in us, and that we will walk out our inheritance like never before. We will be and do everything you will— you have called us to be and do. In the matchless name of Jesus, I declare it to be so. And it is done even now in Jesus' name.
