KINGDOM WORSHIP INTRO: WILL YOU GO HIGHER AND WORSHIP? | DR MIKE WOODS | RADAH CHURCH | 10.3.21

Today on Rhoda Now. Whip the asses. That's the second class you cannot take. He said stay back with the asses. Now, an ass is a donkey. A donkey is used for short trips. They can only take you so far. A donkey is stubborn. A donkey is lazy. A donkey has built in him the ability to quit when he gets tired. So God says every stubborn person, every lazy person— y'all not hearing me— every, glory to God, short trip designed person. See, you're holding on to people that God is trying to take. You're holding on to people trying to take them into your promise, and they asked it. Well, praise the Lord and grace and peace be multiplied to you from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Listen, welcome to Rhoda Now. And for those of you who are uninitiated, my name is Apostle Mike Woods. I'm the senior pastor and founder of Rhoda Church right here in Atlanta, Georgia. And Rhoda Now has been created to give you principles of dominion. You know, the word Rhoda is the Hebrew word for dominion, rulership, authority. Authority, influence, impact. And so, right on now is designed to be 1 hour of teaching that will give you some principles and tools that you can actually use right now. When you get through listening to this, you'll be able to take the principles that I'm about to share and use them in your life. So, we're going to go into this teaching. I'm going to share the Word of the Lord. I'm excited to share it tonight. Thank you guys for joining us. I want to ask you to do me the kind favor, like this video, first of all. And then I need as many of you as possible to share this with your friends. Tag somebody, type their name in the comments, and I need you to engage this. But most of all, I want you to open your heart and your ears, get out your notepads and receive what you need tonight. This message tonight is going to be phenomenal. So listen, let's go into this teaching already in progress. And then afterwards, I'm going to come back and I'm going to take some time and pray with you. Again, welcome to Radha Now! Why don't you just lift your hands right where you are and begin to worship our King? He's a glorious God. Hallelujah! He's a mighty God. He's an awesome God. You know, anybody can praise God, but it takes someone with relationship to worship Him. So slip your hands up right where you are just for a few moments. And I want you to just begin to give God worship, give Him honor. He's an awesome God. He's a mighty God. You know, beside Him there is no other. The scripture declares that the psalmist said, "I pant for thee, O God," which means I long for thee. "I desire thee to quench my very thirst and give me life." I need a worshiper right now to just lift your hands and give God the glory. Hallelujah. Give God the honor. He's worthy. I believe something's going to happen miraculous on this stream tonight as you worship God, as you hear the Word. The Bible declares that He sent His Word and it healed them. Oh, glory be to God. And as we worship tonight, I believe healing is going out. I need you to share this with somebody you know that's sick in their body. Someone that was tested positive for COVID-19, someone with cancer. Oh my God. Worship Him now. Now, I believe that the power of the living God is flowing from this video right now. Lift your hands and give Him praise. Hallelujah! We love Him. He's perfectly and absolutely wise. Father, we adore You and we give You glory. We give You honor. We give You praise. And we declare that beside You, Father, there is none other. Hallelujah! He's a mighty God. Thank You, Jesus. Well, let's pray and then we're going to get into the Word. I feel the power of God. Listen, I need you to like, comment, and share this video. There is a prophetic stream open over me right now. And as we begin to declare the Word, I'm telling you, I heard the Lord say that He's going to heal tonight and He's going to create reconciliation through His Word. God's going to put some things back together. Watch this. You heard this. He's also going to bring us into a place of accelerated progression. God's going to progress you in Omansi, breke koto rabasataya, in, oh my God, supernatural speed. Glory to God. Stuff that should have took a year is going to take 2 months. I need you to share this because somebody is going to get a breakthrough. Let's pray. Father, in Jesus' name, we're so grateful tonight for the opportunity to share Your Word. We are thankful for every person that's joining us, and we're thanking You, God, in advance for the anointing that destroys every yoke and removes burdens. Father, I'm asking You tonight to cast the devil out of the mind, break down every stubborn will, and God, we say yes, yes to Your will. Yes to your way. Yes to your plan. And Father, I thank you in advance for the light, the illumination, and the intelligence of the Holy Spirit. Do something unusual. Do something man cannot do. Walk into our space like a bully. Throw your weight around. Let us know that you are the boss, that you're still in control. Kick some dust in the devil's face and let him know you still rule and reign. In the affairs of men. And we won't fail to give you praise. And all the glory and honor shall be thine. In Jesus' name. Amen. And thank God. Well, I'm super excited tonight. Glory to God to teach the word of the Lord. Again, I need you to go ahead right now, like this video, share it. And I need you to comment below. Let us know you're here. I need you to be engaging with this word tonight. I'm going to give you a disclaimer. I did not come to entertain you. I came tonight to help you. And I promise you, if you stay with us as we share the Word of the Lord, you're going to be blessed. We came to operate in the pleasure mode of God. There are so many men and women of God in this hour that operate in what I call the performance mode. They perform for their audience. They perform for, hallelujah, themselves. And many feel like they need to perform for God. But it is the will of the Father. Hear me good, that we operate in the pleasure mode. If, if you study the New Testament, you'll find that there was only one time that the Father spoke audibly And it was this. He said, "This is my Son in whom I'm well pleased," or in whom I have pleasure. And what you want is the Father to look at your life as you pursue your assignment, pursue his plans and his purpose. You want him to say, "I'm pleased," and you want to put a smile on his face. So we're here tonight to bring pleasure to the Father. Let's go into the Word. Glory to God. As it is found in Genesis, praise God, chapter number 22. And I'm going to read a few verses, praise God. And then we're going to jump right into this and teach the word. Again, I need you to like, I need you to comment. I need you to share because there is a word from the Lord and somebody's life is going to change for the better tonight. Glory to God. Let's go to Genesis 22. And we're going to begin reading at verse number 1. It should— glory to the name of God. The scripture context should be on the screen. But if you have a Bible, I need you to get your Bible. Glory to God. And go to Genesis. Genesis is the first book of the Bible. Glory to God. Hallelujah. And if you can't find Genesis, you need to make sure you're in Sunday school real early Sunday. Glory to God. It's the first book. Genesis chapter 22, beginning at verse number 1. Here we'll find these words. The Bible says, "And it came to pass after these things." Hear me. "God did tempt Abraham and said unto Abraham, 'Behold, here I am.' And he said, 'Take now thine only son, Isaac.'" Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of. And Abraham rose up early in the morning and saddled his ass and took two of the young men with him and Isaac, his son, and clave the wood for the burnt offering. And rose up and went unto the place of which God told him. Then on the third day, hallelujah, somebody shout the third day. Glory to God. Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw the place afar off. And Abraham said to his young men, listen, abide ye here with the ass. And I and the lad will go yonder and worship and come again to you. I'm going to read verse 5 again because it's just all right to read the Bible. Hallelujah. The Bible says, and Abraham said to his young men, abide ye here with the ass. '"And I and the lad," hear me, "'will go yonder and worship and come again to you.'" I just want to talk for a few moments. Glory to God. From the subject, "Will you go higher and worship or stay back with the asses?" Somebody ought to type that on the screen. Will you go to go higher and worship or stay back with the asses. I didn't cuss. It's in the Bible. Glory to God. And you literally tonight have to make a choice. Matter of fact, let me say it one more time. It's a question. It's an inquiry tonight. And I'm going to, over the next 4 weeks, I'm going to come before you and I'm going to present to you an inquiry from Heaven. Because in order for you to have a year that operates at a level of excellence, that operates at a level of productivity, you are going to have to make some adjustments in your life. Watch this. And the questions that I'm going to present to you, you're going to have to answer them wholeheartedly and you're going to have to be honest with yourself. And do what you need to do to get to the next phase. Because can I prophesy to you tonight? Many of you watching me, you're closer than you've ever been to your breakthrough. You're closer than you've ever been to your miracle. And the thing you've been praying for, it's at your fingertips. I'm telling you, you're closer than you think. And though it appears far off, I'm telling somebody right now, you're close. You're about to walk through that door. Hallelujah! God, I feel Jesus right now. You're about to see healing in your body. You're about to see reconciliation in your friendships, in your marriage. Somebody I'm preaching to tonight, you've been estranged from your father, but God's going to reconcile that relationship. Somebody I'm talking to, you've been struggling economically, but I need you to understand you're closer than you've ever been to a breakthrough. And here's the point. You cannot afford to do things your own way. You are going to have to make the adjustment and say, whatever it takes, whatever sacrifices I need to make. Oh my God, I am going to make them in the Name of Jesus so I can get what He has planned for me. Listen to me. There are so many people that want to look blessed, but they really don't want to be blessed because being blessed really requires sacrifice. It requires a deliberate strategy. Hallelujah! A pursuit of God and managing your distractions effectively. And there's so many people in this society today, ladies and gentlemen, that are living beneath their privilege because they don't want to face the places of mediocrity in their lives and raise the standard so that they can receive what God has for them. Now, looking blessed is good. But you also really want to be blessed. And in order to go higher and that again, that's the message tonight. It's a question. Will you go higher and worship or stay back with the asses? Really, will you go? Do you want to go higher? If you do, there are some things I'm going to lift out of the text that you must do. First of all, you got to make a decision that where you are is not your end result, and you got to decide where you rather be. You really can't do that until you take honest introspective of yourself. And I'm not talking about how people have judged you, because it's really easy to paint a picture on the outside and look a certain way and have a certain package. But when you can slip past the package and really discern what's in your heart and find those places— oh my God, I wish y'all would help me tonight. Glory to God. Find those places where you need to see breakthrough and deliverance and begin to deliberately work on them. You got to decide tonight where you would rather be. Where would you rather be? Listen, you got to become dissatisfied with your dysfunction and you got to make up in your mind, I'm going to be a a functional and productive citizen in the Kingdom of God. Can I tell you something? Going higher is a place of increase. And can I submit to you, listen to this. If something is not increasing you, hear me, it will ultimately decrease you. I'm going to say that again. If something is not increasing you, making you better, expanding your capacity, increasing your volume, it ultimately is going to bring you down. And what you gotta do now, my God, is check your environment, check the people around you, and make sure every person around you has the capacity to bring something to the table that increases your value as you move toward your purpose. Lord, I got to get out of here. So when we consider the text— enough introduction— when we consider the text, the Bible says, "And God did tempt Abraham." Now let me break this down, because first of all, God never will tempt us with sin. He will never tempt us with anything that's incongruent to his plan and his will. However, this particular word tempt in Hebrew is a Hebrew word called nasah. Nasah means to test by stress and pressure. As a matter of fact, the Japanese, oshikita banza, breku, stay with me. Glory to God. The Japanese adopted the word Nissan from the word "Nissah" in Hebrew. Now, the way to understand this is that Nissan stands on the fact that they test their automobiles by extreme pressure, extreme— watch this— extreme wreckage and extreme pressure. Here's the reality. If you're going to move into the higher place, Hear me. You're going to have to endure tests. You're going to have to deal with seasons of stress and pressure. Listen, I can't trust your anointing if you never been through nothing. Glory to God. Listen, I can't trust what you say. Glory to the name of God. If you don't have victory in trials. Glory to God. To prove that God brought you out and you matured through the test. See, stress and pressure, sometimes God will stretch you. And that's why you got to make sure you got some elasticity in you. Glory to God. So that when God stretches you to see what you're made of. Oh, I know what you said. I know how you sound. Glory to the Name of God. I know, glory, that everybody celebrates you. But when the trial hits your life, that stretches you. See, it's easy to praise God and shout and dance and speak with tongues. Glory to God. And lift your hands in worship and cry when your bills are paid. It's easy. Glory to God. To celebrate the things of God when everything in your natural life is in line. But God will throw a curveball at you. I'm telling you right now, and he'll stretch you. To see what you're made of because he needs to qualify you for the next dimension. Oh my God. He needs to qualify you for the next place. And this is why you cannot eliminate the process. You cannot, oh my God, eliminate the test and the trial because the test and the trial, the process is qualifying you to keep what God's about to give you. Glory to God. See, if you get too much too fast, I'm telling you right now, I'm a witness. You're going to lose it. Glory to God. And you have to go through the test until your character and your integrity gets qualified to keep what God gives you. When you make steps on your own and you're not in sync with God, watch this. Impatient people are going to try to avoid trials and tribulations every time because they want what they want when they want it. I'm trying to mature you tonight. See, most of this generation wants it fast, wants it quick. Glory to God. But I'm telling you, what qualifies you to keep the blessing is being able to not trip and act a fool and avoid the stretching that God sends to you. Watch this. Let's look at the other side of that. He said stretch, stress, and pressure. Pressure, two words. It's press and urer. Urer is a French word that means to extract. So God will— so if you press something, usually it changes the position. Of what is being pressed. They even got garments you can put on to press your stomach in to make it look like you got a flat stomach. Glory to God. Uh, you got buttons in your car. When you push or press the button, it changes something in your vehicle. God will press on your spirit. He'll press on your life, but Don't be discouraged when he starts pressing on you, because the reason he's pressing on you is because there's something in you. Are y'all hearing me tonight? Y'all ought to give me some hearts or something. You know, I need to send myself a Cash App because I'm teaching real good, because some of you want to be blessed again, but you can't stand the pressure. Some of you want the great things that you see and you want to see God manifest his promise, but you You snap under pressure. Whoo! But God says, I put you under pressure to extract, ure, to pull out of you that anointing. I crush you so that the oil can ooze out of you. The Bible said Jesus went to the Garden of Gethsemane before He went to the cross. He was going to fulfill His purpose. Hear me. Oh God, Lord have mercy. Listen, he was going— that's that. He went to Gethsemane. Gethsemane means oil press. And in Gethsemane, there was a group of ladies, glory to God, that would go down to the oil press and they would begin to dance on the olives until they crushed the olives and oil oozed out of the olives. And when Jesus went down there, he got real oily. Glory to God. He got real greasy so that when he got on that cross to fulfill his purpose, he would pass through the portals of death. Death couldn't hold him because he was slippery with the anointing. And that's why you got to go through your seasons of pressure so that you can qualify. Hear me for the next place. He said, and God did tempt Abraham and said unto him, glory to God, Abraham. And Abraham said, here I am. See, here's a reality here. When God comes to test you, do you immediately answer like Abraham did? Hallelujah. Do you say, Lord, here am I, I'm ready for the test? Who am I talking to? Somebody tonight that wants more, that desires more, and you're willing to say, I'm ready. Ishkatabanse abokoshe, shotul rabaka, shotu. I feel God here. Good God Almighty. You got to learn how to lift your hands and say, I'm ready for the test. Oh, I'm ready for the test because I understand that if I don't go through this process, I will not be qualified to keep what I'm going after. Come on, ladies and gentlemen, you got to have a grace that accompanies your gift. Grace is charis in Greek, and it means an empowering gift. So, the gift that is upon you, you need the empowerment of heaven to make that gift effective. What gives you the grace to be effective is pressure. Woo! Because it breaks you to push you into the presence of God. Oh, he bothers you to make you better. I'm talking to somebody tonight, you don't understand why God bothered you. You, why you've been going through what you've been going through. But I want you to know you've been going through it because God says, I got to make you better. I got to make you palatable for the people you're going to impact by what I've called you to do. So you got to go through it. Let's look at verse 2. Glory be to God. I hope y'all getting something out of this already. I feel like I'm teaching too fast. But I'm almost through. He said unto him, verse 2, take now your son, your only son, Isaac. Now watch this. Any Bible scholar worth his salt knows that Isaac was not his only son at this time. But Isaac, the Bible, the word only here is the Hebrew word yakid. And Ya'akid means the solitary one who carries the generational birthright. So, what God was identifying, I need you to take the seed that carries the future, whew, that carries the birthright, and here's what I want you to do. I know you love him. Get to the land of Moriah. Get to the land Amariah. Now, Moriah in Hebrew means the chosen of Jehovah. So God says, I want you to take your future and I want you to take it to a topography, a location. Watch this. Every assignment has topography. It has a place. Every assignment has people. Every assignment has places. Where you are is just as important as who you are. And watch this. You never want to be where God was. You want to be where God is. You can be the most gifted singer, preacher, businessperson, cook. Y'all not talking— the most gifted, glory to the name of God, stockbroker, but in the wrong place. And in the wrong place, you will not succeed. Connected to the wrong topography and geography, glory to God, you will not advance. So he says to Abraham, he gives him some clear instructions. He says, take your son that you love, your kid, get to the place I have chosen. Can I tell you something? Your place of breakthrough has already been chosen. Your place of victory, hallelujah, has already been chosen. It's just a matter of you going through the process. Glory to God. To get to the place that God has planned for you. I told you I'm not interested in entertaining you tonight. I want you to grab this. I want— that's why we're calling this Radha Now. The name of our church is Radha Church. Then I own a company called the Radha Group. And at the end of the day, the word Radah is the Hebrew word for dominion. We're calling this program Radah Now because I want to give you, every time I talk to you, something you could take away from this program and use it. Listen, this is dominion on demand. Glory to God. So you could take these principles and use them. And I'm telling you tonight, Your gift, your assignment, your, your place of breakthrough has already been prepared. And you got to make up in your mind that you're going to unplug and detach from places and people that do not align with where you're going. God, I'm getting ahead of myself. Let me move. He said, and I want you to do something. Go to where I choose and make a sacrifice. Offer him there. For a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I tell you. Listen again. Will you go higher and worship? So verse 2 introduces to us that worship— watch this— requires two things. One, you cannot worship God if you do not know God. Worship is not just a set of songs. It's not learning all of the Hosanna praise songs. Glory to God. And lifting your hands and singing slow. That's an element of worship. But worship in its simplest terms, the Hebrew term means to sacrifice unto death, to resolve that the thing I worship is bigger than me. So I die so the thing I worship can have control. Well, the Bible says Jesus said this. Let them that who worship, worship in spirit Come on. And in truth. In other words, you need to worship based on your worth scope, your perspective, your vantage point of God. You must know him. You got to spend some time with him. You don't get to know people without spending time with them. I have— I know Deion Sanders. Oh, I know T.D. Jakes. And they met him one time. You cannot know someone without spending time with them. You cannot know God unless you spend time with him. And I'm not talking about what you do in church, what you do online. You need some prime time with God every day where you spend time with him in the same place at the same time and you allow Him to develop relationship with you. Oh, my God. So you can't worship God if you don't know God. Verse 2 also reveals to us that you cannot worship God. Hear me, without a sacrifice. If— oshia, breke labando so ku rabahaya. If indeed you're going to adequately worship, it requires sacrifice. You got to be able to do it tired. Listen, because worship is not predicated upon what God has done. That's praise. Worship is predicated upon who God is. And when you know who he is, you can worship him broke. You can worship Him sick. Y'all are helping me. You can worship Him when everything in your life seemingly is falling apart because you know He got you. And you can sacrifice your emotions and how you feel because you are a worshiper. Ha! I want somebody to type on the screen, "I am a worshiper," because you can't— again, you can't worship God if you don't know Him. And you can't worship without a sacrifice. Matter of fact, just jump backwards a minute to Genesis 14. Let me show you something real quick. I want to show you what worship looks like real quick. Genesis 14, verse 1. I'm sorry, Genesis 15, verse 1. Stay with me. Watch this. 15:1. After these things, the word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision, saying, fear not, Abram. Watch this. I am your shield. Hallelujah. And thy exceeding great reward. So God says to Abraham, I'm your protection. I got you covered. Glory to the name of God. Nothing shall be able to harm you. Glory to God. And I am your exceeding great reward. Now, here's the saints in verse number 2. God just told you he got you. He gonna protect you from sickness and disease. He's going to protect you from death. He's going to protect you from pain. Poverty. He's going to protect you. Glory to God. Hallelujah. From the wiles of the devil. And he says, I'm God himself. He says, I am your reward. You know, the greatest reward you can ever receive is God, an up close and personal relationship with the Father. But watch what Abraham does. And Abraham said, Lord God, What will you give me, seeing I am childless and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus? Wait a minute. What? That's what the saints do. God says, I'm your reward. I got you. That's everything right there. I'm going to protect you and I'm your reward. Why you got to come back and ask him what you're going to give me? Not— you got everything. You listen, you already have Everything. He's the exceeding great reward. He's your shield. He's going to protect you. He got you. So guess what you need to do? Just throw up your hands and worship him. Let's go. Verse 3, he says, and Abraham rose up early in the morning and saddled his ass and took two of the young men with him. And Isaac, his son, claimed the wood for the burnt offering and rose up and went to the place which God told him. Verse 3 represents preparation. He prepared to worship. He prepared to lay down everything that was important to him, everything that he loved for the God he served. Watch this. Verse 3 represents really two things: preparation and obedience. See, worship is an act of obedience too. Because again, it's not predicated on feeling. It's not predicated on tangible rewards. It's predicated on who God is and who God is alone. So you got to be obedient and say, I'm not going to let nothing steal my worship life. Come on, somebody type on the screen. I am a worshiper. I'm telling you tonight, for the worshipers that's watching, if you'll take about 5 seconds right now and just begin to give God worship and tell him how much you love him and type on the screen, I am a worshiper, God is getting ready to rip the heavens open. Eh oskitaban sa tabako. And superimpose upon you a heavenly reality that you've never experienced. Stuff you've been praying for is about to show up. But God says, I need you to take the posture of a worshiper. And every day you got to prepare and be obedient. Watch this. Preparation time is never wasted time. Preparation. Preparé. Paré is where we get words like paring knife. You prepare the details in advance. A paring knife cuts close. Glory to God. So in advance, before you prepare so you can worship in excellence, because worship again is not just lifting your hands in church, singing a song. Worship, hallelujah, carries itself in a way that it is a part of every aspect of your life because you live to bring glory to God. I'm talking about higher worship. He says here, Verse number 4. Then on the third day— I don't have time to teach about the third dimension, but everything that's important in the realm of the spirit is in the third dimension. Everything that connects us to God is in the third dimension. Watch this. Jesus died and he rose on the third day. Third dimension. Faith, hope, love. Abide these three, but the greatest of these three is love. Third dimension. We are trichotomies. We're body, soul, and spirit. The spirit is the place we commune with God. Hallelujah. Father, Son, Holy Ghost. Holy Ghost is in the third dimension. Are you hearing me tonight? I need you to understand you need to become a third dimension saint of God where you live by walking in the Spirit, where you live a supernatural life. Oshiketa baya! Because you're strongly connected to Him, not out of your flesh. Here's a problem. Fleshly people are addicted to social media because the first thing they check in the morning is Facebook and Instagram. The last thing they check at night before they close their eyes is Facebook and Instagram. I wonder what would happen if you open your Bible app as much as you open your Facebook app. As much as you open your IG app, because people need— oh my God— acceptance in the flesh because they're one-dimensional. And oskitabai, outer court, inner court, Holy of Holies. The Holy of Holies is in the third dimension. I said I wasn't going to teach about this. I ain't got time. I ain't got time. That's another message. But you got to recognize that God wants you to walk in the Spirit so you can live at a higher level of worship. Woo! Watch this. And then on the third day, in the third dimension, watch this. Abraham saw the place he was going afar off. Here we go. When you walk in obedience and you live a prepared life of worship, and you operate from the third dimension out, out of that obedience and preparation and testings and trials, God will give you revelation. He'll, he'll reveal to you where you're going. He'll show you the end from the beginning. For real, because you now have looked at it through the eyes of the spirit and not the eyes of your flesh. See, a lot of people have created destinations in their carnality. Oh, hear me good. And they want to be something they don't have the grace to be. They— it's not their purpose. It's not their assignment for life. But when you tap into third dimensional living, you get a revelation of where you're going. And watch this. Verse 5. When you know where you're going, verse 5 reveals to us, you know who you could take. Huh? He said, and Abraham, after he saw with his eyes, had the revelation. Abraham said to the young man, he's the first class of people that cannot go with you. It's the immature. And I'm not talking about immature in age because I know some young people, glory to God, who are walking in the things of the Spirit. Praise God. Whoo! And they're mature believers because they spend time with God. They study the Word. They seek to develop the Word. Oh my God. The worship ethic, a worship ethic that produces supernatural results in their life at every single turn. Are y'all hearing this? You can't take immature people into this place. They become distractions that ultimately create delays. And when you got delays, most of the time you end up taking shortcuts, rabbit trails, because you got the wrong people with you. You got immature people that can't even see what you're trying to accomplish. Watch this. You can't fit a 16 by 20 idea in a 3 by 5 mind. It will not fit. Stop talking to 3x5ers and you are 16x20. Glory to God. Your dream is 16x20 and you're talking to this little peon, 3x5 mind. I don't talk to people who don't understand my billion-dollar run because they can't even conceptualize it. Because at the end of the day, people will size you up by what they see on a Facebook page. They don't even know who you are and what you're doing and the moves you're making because you don't tell them everything. People who are really living in the third dimension, they don't have to broadcast everything they're doing. I'm on a billion dollar— not million, billion. We've surpassed that. We're on a billion dollar run because at the end of the day, our goal Shaman de kisiaya is to take control. And we understand we can't do it without wealth. And so I can't take everybody on that journey. Whoo! Hashi ambandolo boko shi. I just had a call on Thursday night with 7 documented multimillionaires and 23 other— hear me— men and women who are at the brink of breaking millionaire status. Because our goal is to be a millionaire maker so that we can produce billions in results, so we can create a trillion-dollar economy. See, the immature mind can't handle that kind of talk. 'Cause you wanna be popular on social media. You want people to like your video. You want people to like your post. You better get out here and do some work. That's immature thinking. Of course, we thank God for the ability to leverage these platforms to do the things that he will have us to do on these platforms, but there is work outside of being in front of your phone or a camera. That you must do. Whew! I gotta go. I gotta go. You can't take everybody. He says, so he said to the young men, abide ye, stay here. Abide. You can't go. Abide here with the asses. That's the second class you cannot take. He said, stay back with the asses. Now, an ass is a donkey. A donkey is used for short trips. They can only take you so far. A donkey is stubborn. A donkey is lazy. A donkey has built in him the ability to quit when he gets tired. So God says every stubborn person, every lazy person— y'all not hearing me— every, glory to God, short trip designed person. So you're holding on to people that God is trying to take. You're holding on to people trying to take them into your promise and they asses. I didn't cuss. It's in the Bible. If you want to go higher and worship, you got to leave the asses behind. Every person who is stubborn, lazy, and have gotten you as far as they can take you. Because I'm telling you right now, God's got a higher place. He said to them, he said, young men, stay here with the asses. I didn't cuss y'all, it's in the Bible. Leave them donkeys behind. Glory to God. They don't want nothing, never wanted nothing. All they've been doing is holding you up. Every time you talk about something bigger, something loftier, they try to tear it down. Child, you know you can't do that. You ain't got no money. He said, "And I and the lad." In other words, we can't take the asses and the immature to where we're about to go. He says, "We're going to go yonder, higher, and worship and come again to you." I think it was Arnold Schwarzenegger that said, "I'll be back." Glory to God. Hallelujah. You see, you're not just leaving them there. But you're going higher to get what you need from God. And then you gonna come back, hallelujah, and pull the asses and the immature up with you. You gonna pull them stubborn, lazy, short trip people into the fullness of their potential. But you gotta stop fooling around with them so you can go higher, get what you need. And then you come back and you take them into the place of their destiny. Somebody ought to type on the screen right now, "I'll be back." Hallelujah. And I want to prop— oh my God, I feel that, God. Listen, somebody here tonight with the same eyes because they talked about you because you've been through trials, you've been through tests, you've been in the storm. Glory to God. You've been through the rain. Praise God. Hallelujah. And they And you've been talking about Jesus and they said you were never going to make it. But I'm here to prophesy to you tonight with the same eyes that they watched you cry. Glory to God. With the same eyes that they watched you struggle. With the same eyes that they watched you get knocked out, rejected, talked about, lied on, scandalized. He said with the same eyes. Lord, I wish I was in the church. I got to go. I got to go. 'Cause I didn't come to do that. He said, but with the same eyes, they're gonna have to watch you come out. With the same eyes they watch your car get repossessed. With the same eyes they watch your house get foreclosed on. Woo! With the same eyes that they watched you struggle and go through with your children, they're gonna have to watch you Come out! I dare somebody type on the screen, "Watch me come out! Watch me come out! Watch me! Because I'm coming out!" Let's pray. Glory to God. Father, in Jesus' name, I pray that no one was offended by the words that were spoken here tonight. I only taught it like the King James Version of the Bible said it. So, Father, I'm asking you tonight, that you will help those under the sound of my voice leave the stubborn, the lazy, those that are designed for short trips, the immature who don't understand the fullness of the vision, that they will have the strength to leave them behind. And we bless you for it now. In Jesus' name. Amen. I wish you'd clap your hands and praise him. God is good right where you are. We love you and God bless you. Wow. Well, praise the Lord. What a word from the Lord. My God. The question becomes again, will you go higher and worship or stay back with the asses? That's the question. You got to answer that. Will— are you willing to leave the young men and the stubborn behind so you can get everything God has for you? I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for joining us tonight. Listen, I want to challenge every person to sow a seed into ministry tonight. Listen, I prophesied to our church back in October, and I shared with them that 2020 2021 would be the year of amazing. And I know how things have started off in '21. It don't seem like it, but I'm telling you right now, God is positioning us to experience amazing this year. So I want to challenge every person that is desiring God to superimpose an amazing economic condition on their life. I'm telling you, as I'm talking I'm talking, your economic climate is about to change. And I need every person that needs their finances to shift immediately. There's an anointing that's been on my life, and I thank God for years wherein we have challenged people to give, and we have so many testimonies over the last 30 years, and even more recently, so many great things are happening because of people's giving. I need you to plant a seed of $20.21. The ways to give is on the screen. Make sure you share and put your seed in the ground so you can release an amazing economic climate into your life for 2021. Listen guys, my time is gone. I thank you for joining us, and I want to challenge you to join us again next week, right right here on this network at the same time. And remember, share the word with a friend, and your decisions position you for dominion. God bless you.
