I need you guys to share this. God bless you. Woman of God, Elder Frazier, good to see you. Look, again, I need you guys to share this. The essence of what God is doing is going to require, uh, just some really deliberate things on behalf of his people. And I want to share this, uh, there's no hype, I have no soft music playing in the background. Um, my wife and I just came in from an event Uh, this thing has been brooding beneath the surface with me actually all week long. And tonight when I was sitting at this event, the Lord just began to download some things in me toward the end of the event, and he said, you can't wait till tomorrow. As tired as I am, our Bible study is normally tonight. I was going to even just wait to do that tomorrow, but I need to drop this word like it's hot. So guys, do me a favor. Please, God bless you. God bless you, Sister Brian. Good to see you. God bless you. God bless you, Lady Jasper. God bless you, Pastor Jasper. Good to see you guys on here tonight. Uh, listen guys, I need you to share this. It's going to be important. This is important for the body. We're moving into a very strategic year in 2024. This is the fourth quarter, and it's so important that we understand how to move We can't wait until 2024 to start our movement toward what God is doing. So I, again, I need you guys to share this. I'm gonna, I'm gonna come back in a few moments and I am going to, uh, just again begin to, uh, just share this. So please, uh, take a moment and, uh, share this.

Um, again, I just want you to leave this live tonight. It's probably one of the most important lives I've done all year, and we've been streaming all year. Um, because again, this 2024 is very strategic to what God wants to do in the next 10 years. So how we move in the fourth quarter of 2023 is very important. So let's pray. And then again, no music in the background. This is all anointing that's coming from God. Again, I need you guys to do me a kind favor. And share this, please. Hey, God bless you, Minister Tanya. Love you, girl. Good to see you on here. Um, again, share this, please, ladies and gentlemen. Uh, this is going to be so necessary. Uh, I think there's going to be a superb turnaround in a lot of areas of our life, um, as we move into this next year, and God is going to really equip us in a huge way. So let's pray, and I'm gonna drop this because it's been heavy on me all week. I've endured a lot of warfare, and I understand now, uh, after tonight, when the Lord spoke to me at this event, why I was going through all I was going through this week. And I will explain some of that to you, uh, in a moment. So let's pray. Father, in Jesus' name, we give you praise, we give you glory, we give you honor. We thank you for an opportunity, God, to disseminate this word and share with your people. And Father, I decree and declare today, God, as we speak as your oracle tonight, I'm asking you, Father, to open the windows of heaven. And Father, I'm asking you to superimpose yourself upon us. God, even as we speak this prophetic word, I'm asking you, Father, that as you've given it to me and as it— this thing is spermatically a part of me, what we have to do and what we have to birthed over the next 10 years and how you're mobilizing us in a great way to get things done for the kingdom. Father, I'm asking you to let this word be spermatic for every person that is listening. And Father, I'm asking you to— I'm decreeing and declaring now, glory to God, that you would make sure that there be an imprint, God, in the name of Jesus, in the embryo, in the spirit of every person that's with us tonight, and we give you praise for it now in Jesus' name. Amen and amen. All right, glory to God. Okay, we got issues, man. Don't— what? Why you touching it? It's okay, it's all— just wait. Okay, y'all, see, the enemy definitely doesn't want this to go forth, but it's gonna happen. It's gonna happen. Glory to God. Stay with me. Light issues. All right, so here we are, guys. I love you all. Thank you for sharing. If you haven't shared this yet, I need you to share it. Okay, so we're in the fourth quarter of the year, right? Um, this is the beginning of October. Uh, we're racing toward the end of 2023, uh, about to turn the pages on a new set of month, a new set of days, a new set of weeks. And God is literally giving us a blank page. And as we move into this year strategically Uh, this is— and I want you to hear me tonight in the Holy Spirit— this is an election year, right? Um, what does that mean for us in the kingdom? The only thing that means for us in the kingdom— you're going to hear a lot of people talking about this, and even prophets talking about what to do and who to vote for. Here's what the Lord said to me. He said, in this season of the election It's not for us to turn to the prophets for answers. It's for us to turn to the scripture and the word and, and pursue our participation in this, if any, just through wisdom and revelation from what God would give you personally. In other words, he's saying don't waste a lot of time focusing on this election because it's not about the election. This is what the Lord said to me so clearly, guys. It's about the elected. I need somebody to type that in the comments. It's not about the election, it's about the elected. And I need you again to hear me so clearly. Who is the elected? It's you and I. We are elected selected and protected by God to be the forerunners, and not only the heads of the church but the heads of the world. And so this week for me, guys, let me just give you a backdrop and then I'm just going to drop these prophetic points to you tonight. Um, has been a very trying week for me, probably one of the most trying weeks of my year. Um, my daddy is fighting with something in his body, so just warring for him for a miracle and for his healing. Um, spent most of my day yesterday at the hospital with him, uh, to get a procedure that he needed. Uh, as we move through this process, uh, seeing the weight loss that my daddy has sustained Uh, just, this is my hero, you know, this is my hero, uh, this is my role model growing up. This is the strongest man, uh, that has ever been placed before my eyes. Um, he blessed my life in so many ways, in a tremendous way. And so the enemy tremendously has attacked me, uh, spiritually and mentally surrounding this, and I just had to lock down I put my foot on his neck. And once I did that— yes, God— uh, the enemy began to open my eyes and show me something. And so, uh, this thing began to come in waves. And so, and I want you to hear this, guys, and if you're taking notes, write it down. And this video will be here for you to refer to, because as we run to the end of the year, you need to understand this is about the hope of the saints. As we move into 2024, God is going to introduce to the world a new hope that surrounds his kingdom citizens. And as I was watching my father on yesterday The Lord said to me, he said, son, you preach and teach so much faith, you've seen so many miracles in your life, and I need you to adjust right now because you have seen it happen for so many others outside of your circle, outside of your sphere of influence. I need you to understand that there's a hope that's greater than what doctors say. There's a hope that's greater than what banking institutions say. There's a hope for my people, for kingdom citizens. Esha tomonkuska tababaya. That's greater than our businesses, our employment. And we, so many times, we get caught up in our personal circumstances and we become slaves to what the circumstances are, and we will adjust because We were shaping in iniquity, and a lot of times we really don't realize— ete besku rabakaya, bresete bebo soto koseaya. We give you glory, God. Thank you, Father. Thank you, Father. Listen, there's a hope. And if you're a kingdom citizen tonight, and if you're watching this video and you're not born again and you're not a kingdom citizen, when I'm done, I'm gonna give you an opportunity to become one. Because every one of you listening to me tonight, you need to embrace this new hope that's about to be breathed out upon the kingdom citizen. And I'm gonna tell you what that hope looks like and why you have reason to expect this hope. All right, so— and I— and yeah, I hear that, Lord. So the first thing I'll do I'm going to go to scripture really quickly because this is the scripture God gave me in Psalm 119. Blessed be God. Hallelujah. Um, Psalm 119. Praise his name. Hallelujah. Lord, I love you. Psalms 119. We're not going to be exegetical or none of that. We're prophetically gonna just plow through these few verses that God gave me because I want to show you, uh, as a foundation why you have reason to hope for this new hope. Psalm 119 and 49. And if you're reading out of King James, the first thing you actually see in this— hear me— you see the word Zion, and Zion is a Hebrew term that— watch this— that means hope in the middle of adversity. So our— so it basically, it is the letter Z in the Hebrew alphabet, and it signifies that the blessing of the end of a thing— listen— has arrived in the middle of a thing. And I want to prophetically say to every person on this live tonight that you're in the middle of something. Ah, she get the bababansa, the bakiska, tababo, riandaya, rebesa, tabando, lobokuse. Bresketabai. And there have been some promises, hear me, that have appeared far off. Hear me, guys. And have appeared as if they are out of reach. But God says to say to you tonight, the blessing of an end of a thing, something that was gonna take much longer, Something that was going to take 6 months, God's about to blow your mind and do it in 6 weeks. Something that would have took 6 years, he's about to do it in 6 months. Because God has to accelerate the blessing, and I'm gonna tell you why in a moment. Because— and it is the believer that is going to have to take their place, not— listen, not just having good church, not just opening another building, not just going through the motions of religiosity and legalism. And we've been teaching about this, and, and I understand now why we've been so deep in this series and have not been able to let it go, because I'm gonna tell you something: the religious mind or the legalistic mind will not be able to embrace this new hope. And the reason being, because it's going to cause you to have to have faith out of the box. Oh my God, today it's going to cause you— Ashkitatabasatababaya, briska tabansorakisgataya— it's going to cause you to have to believe at levels and dimensions that you have never believed before. Because many of you that are listening to me tonight and by replay, you've been trusting in your job, your business, your bank account, your partners, the monetization of your podcast, your YouTube channel, your acting career, your athletic career. Listen, even my— because we're streaming on all platforms tonight— even my, my athletes and, and actors that follow me on YouTube and those of you that are subscribed to my my other Facebook pages, listen, and in my groups, I need you to understand me. You cannot depend, listen, on who your resources— your resources will not matter. You're going to have to step out of the box and trust God for this new hope. Because here's what God is calling for. The first thing he said, son, he said, tell them Zion. You got it? Zion. In, in the middle of a— in the middle of circumstances, in the middle of adversity, he's going to manifest what was promised as the end. Oh, rabba satabaya. Right in the middle of it, y'all. What He promised would be your end is about to show up in the middle. I need you to hear this is prophecy tonight. This ain't preaching, this is prophecy. I need you to hear it. Glorshka tabaya. I need you to hear it like a word from the Lord, and it's for believers that's ready to step out of the box and trust God on a deeper level. I know you like having good church. I know you like flying around the services. I know we love crying and worshiping and falling on the floor. And going through the motions, but it's going to take more than that for what God is pulling us into in a very accelerated way. That's why, ladies and gentlemen, tonight, whether you're live or by replay, this word was urgent. My wife and I just left an event where we had to— thank you, dear— where we had to uh, me dressed. So that's why I'm still dressed. I didn't even have time. That's why we're having technical difficulties at the beginning to change my clothes, because I came right in, came in the studio in my house and started talking to you. The reality is, first, that's the first point. Zion, he's going to cause the thing that was promised for the end to show up in the middle. And there are many of you listening to me, listen, that have prophetic utterances over your life, lekiska tabamandiaya, that you've been waiting to come to pass. You've gotten prophecy after prophecy. You've gotten confirmations on prophecies that the Lord, of things that the Lord actually spoke to you he was going to do for you. And even prophecies that are in this book. Hear me, we're getting ready to see a huge manifestation of the promises of God, but it will be for those that launch out in a deeper belief. Let me, let me keep reasoning. He says Zion, he says, remember the word unto thy servant upon which thou has caused me to hope. So here's the first reason you have to expect this new hope. This is prophecy, this is not preaching. I will be going a whole nother way if I was preaching this text or teaching it. But here's what the Lord said tonight. He said, you got to tap into the corridors of your intellectual mind. Let this mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus. Align the mind of Christ with your innovation that he has given you as a gift and begin to align your mental and intellectual abilities with the mind of God concerning you. And if— oh my God, that's why you need to be in the— if you have never heard the voice of God speak to you about you and talk to your mind about you, this is why you need to be in a prophetic culture. Like a Glory Revival Center, like a Rhoda Church. You, you need to be in a culture where there are people, not just the leader, but there are people in that culture that can speak the word of the Lord over your life. Watch this, and even help you remember the words, the history of the words, the prophet— because a lot of times I minister to people, I'm reading the timeline of God concerning that person, and a lot of times God will help me remind them of what God said to them in times past that they need to still obey. So here's what God is saying as we move into this new year: remember the word that has been spoken over you. And let me help you, many times you get a word and right in that moment you have hope, you're excited, you cry, you fall on the floor, you look forward to that word spoken. Hear me, ladies and gentlemen, but some people, a few hours after that, after the service is over, you get home, you get to your house and you forget the very thing that God said to you. Some of you can read a word and get encouraged. You can hear the preacher teach a word, get encouraged. It is going to be important to you as we move into this new year to be reminded of the word that has been spoken over your life. And watch this, specifically, it's not an accident that you're on this live tonight. You're on this live tonight at 11:30 in Atlanta, 10:30 Central, because you're supposed to be here. You're one of the people that God is arming. Etabasondere kasiaya. For this next dimension of glory that's going to begin to pour out in ways we've never seen it. And not just in the church, but in the marketplace and upon the municipality. But God is saying you got to use your, your, your mind because your mind has two functions. I hear you, God. It's memory and imagination. Your memory, God gives you that to replay the past. Now what you need to replay is the word. Word. Hear me, glory to God, spoken over your life. Not the torment, not the pain. Stop replaying the pain, the broken spaces. Very important that you remember this as we cross over into 2024. You got to keep replaying the word. That's why you need somebody recording that word of prayer. Everybody got a camera on their phone, so when you get in the word, hand your phone to your friend and let them record it. Or if there's a word of prophecy coming over the pulpit, record it, get it so that you can remember. Because the enemy is so quick to make you remember the horror stories of your life. He's quick to make you remember, glory to God, things that don't matter no more, things that are out of season. They may have been good things, but that's what Apostle Paul said, forgetting those things which are behind. But he— it's clear here that we need to remember the word to the servant, you and I, because that word gives hope. And the only way you're going to be able to embrace this hope that's about to be thrown at us as we cross into 2024, you got to remember the word, because that word is going to remind you of your value. It's going to remind you that you are adequate. That you are enough and that your authenticity, your uniqueness— oh my God, your— oh my God, your, your own personal brand of fire that God is giving you to flow in is enough. And you ain't got to be nobody else. You ain't got to run around and act and look like a Juanita Bynum, a Cindy Trim, a T.D. Jakes. No, God is going to need you. Your unique personality, your unique flow, your unique way of doing business, your unique way of doing ministry, your unique way of showing up in the world. That's, my friends, is what God is going to need. So he says, remember the word over you. Remember this word tonight: you're enough, you're valuable. I apologize for those that don't believe in tongues. I, I can't help it. I'm— I just speak as the Spirit gives utterance. I know there are people on here tonight that, that have— they'll understand it. Uh, we'll have another session about that. But listen, I need you to grab this, guys. Please remember the word spoken to you. It gives you reason to hope. Watch this, verse 50 says, this is my comfort in my affliction. So here's, here's the next part of this prophetic word. The reason to hope is the prophetic utterance over your life, but there is some affliction, guys, because we must own this hope by faith, and I'm gonna tell you exactly what it is in a moment, before we occupy it. Ownership precedes occupancy. I hear you, God. But you cannot occupy or own in the realm of the spirit or in the vision dimension, hear me, without opposition. So he says, this is my hope in my— that the word here, oh my God, is anai, which anai is how it's pronounced, and it literally means in my opposition, when I am opposed, when I am challenged, when I am pressed toward distraction. And so this week, as the enemy challenged me on every side, even atmospheric disturbance, I ain't had no problems in my phone lines for years, but in my mobile phone lines, atmospheric disturbance in my phone lines. I got so many business contacts, so many ministry contacts, and people I'm connected to that have that phone number. The phone number is not working, not because we didn't pay the bill, it's because there's atmospheric disturbance and they're trying to figure out how this has happened. So I've had to break now just yesterday evening and get a new phone and a new number. I was distraught, but that's part of the opposing. Things are gonna come at you to challenge you, little things like that, to challenge you to get distracted from the assignment. Are you hearing this? Don't go to sleep. Stay up. I'm almost done. The opposition is coming because this hope is real. It's on the way. It is. God, I saw it tonight. God help us. I saw it tonight. This thing has been accumulating in the heavens since 2019. And God says, I'm ready to release this thing for my people, my true believers, those who will step to this next dimension of faith. I'm, I'm ready to release this hope, this new hope. I'm gonna tell you what it is in a moment, but stay with me. But you're gonna be opposed. The enemy hates this because he sees what's happening in the realm of the spirit. So he's going to work with any area of idleness he can to distract you from getting all of this. Lord have mercy. But, but he said, this word is my comfort, is how I'm able to keep going. It's my victory in hope. Watch this, he says, watch this. And for thy word— here it is again— has quickened me. So even things that seem like it will kill you Even things that seem like you're not gonna make it out of, he says go back to the word because he can't lie. It's what's gonna open up this realm of hope. You got to believe what you've been taught, what you've learned, what you've read, what's been prophesied over you. You got to believe the word of the Lord. It does you no good If you don't believe it, and you got to remember it. And to remem— you remember things best when you rehearse them. Keep them in your ear. Keep them being spoken. Lord, I love you today. Verse 51, here we go, here we go. He says, the proud have had me greatly in derision, yet I have not declined from your law. Glory to God. Listen to me, guys, and I'm almost done. He says, the proud have had me in derision, but yet I have not declined from your word, from what you— because he's a king, and when God speaks a word it becomes law. When he declares a thing, it's law. So God says, hear me, the proud, the arrogant, those that think you're crazy for believing God, those that— is there people around you even in the church? Watch this. I hear that, God, who call themselves believers, who will call you ludicrous. For believing God and his word. And they'll tell you, you need to trust in other means other than trusting God. I was sitting there at the hospital with my mom, and I was telling her, I said, hey, we believe God. I said to her, with my dad, I said, listen, we're believing God that none of the things they're diagnosing will need to happen. And when he goes back to the doctor for that appointment that's trying to plan out these treatments, they're not going to be needed because we have a new hope. We have to trust what we preach, what we hear again. And the proud will tell you you're crazy. I'm not crazy. And I'm telling you, you're not crazy for believing God. For those of you that have been standing all this time You're not crazy for believing God. You got to trust him when you cannot trace him. You got to trust him when it's hard. Are you hearing this? Are you hearing this? The proud, arrogant people will tell you, don't do that, don't launch out right there. But you gonna have to ignore that. You gonna have to ignore faithless people because they'll have you in derision. Derision means they make folly of you. They laugh at you. Watch this, they talk about you behind your back. People hear me make faith confessions like I'm on a billion-dollar run and that God's going to make me a billionaire. They— I know people talk behind my back and say I'm crazy, God's never going to do that. You keep watching because I, I operate in the level of a new hope. And I'm telling you right now, and I say that courageously because I know what God— because I seen it tonight, because I understand more than ever what God's about to do. So don't let carnal people who want to make folly of you, talk about you— watch this— people that don't have enough sense to know that what you're walking in, they need to be connected to, but they run away because maybe they don't understand it. Don't let that bother you, because the Bible says that if they had been for us— that's you too— they would have stayed with us. But because they left us, it means they were not for us. So don't let them go, man. 'Cause as you go into this new year, you gotta focus on this new hope and you gotta focus on remembering the word, not pain people cause you, not what people say about you, not what people question whether you can or can't. Matter of fact, you need to unplug your ear, I heard you God, from all that negativity 'cause you're gonna need to stay focused and you're gonna have to have high possibility thinking. As you move through this next year, because it's going to be a year of manifested new hope. It's going to be a year of great manifestations. What's the new hope, Michael Woods? And I'm closing, I'm about to get off this live, man. Ababa salama ni osaya. Brisket. Yes God, today. What's the new hope, Michael? I'm glad you asked. The new hope is that there's a people in the world— matter of fact, a large percentage of the earth, about 68%— that need a people to manifest that carry this new hope. See, the only way they're gonna get it, it has to come through us. There are men and women who are being sex trafficked. There are homeless people that need help. There are battered children and single women You women that God has spoke to about having transitional housing, you need to, you need to be courageous enough and stop just thinking you ain't supposed to do that and jump out in faith and do it. They're entrepreneurs. I know that's— I start speaking into this vision even last Saturday at Raleigh Church Jackson. I was talking about how God has called us to build a one roof concept facility to house the homeless, to house battered women, to, to have single mothers and their children who have nowhere to go, to have a school there, to have clinics and psychological care and vocational training, everything they need under the Walmart of ministry to provide for these people. And as I was saying this, I had no idea idea that there were other people in the earth that had already been doing this. I said that Saturday. Monday, I got a call from the CEO of a company called Frontline Response. Watch this, I'm going somewhere. This is— see, people don't want to hear this part because what you want to do is stand up in church and preach, prophesy, lay hands, and you— that's what you want to do. That's fine, but that's not where ministry ends. We do that so that we can show up in the world and change the lives of people. So I get this call from the guy that's doing the very thing that God told me he wants me to do. Then he sends me to another guy that's been doing it for 26 years where I gotta produce a video for him. And so I go in and sit down with him. He's been doing it 26 years. We get to talking. I tell him I want to do it. He said, man, I'm, you know, I'm gonna do for you. He said, you come over here with a team of people who you want to learn this. I'm gonna tell you exactly how to do it, how to get the funding, how to make it happen. He's got, this dude has 50 acres of under one roof. All the things I just said, I had no idea that existed. And nevertheless in my city. God said, I'm putting you in this position. I've been talking to y'all all year about taking the position of a learner. You earn what you learn. So part of this new hope is learning what you need to learn so you can show up for the people you are assigned to show up with, with maximum effectiveness. Oh my God. Ah, you gotta show up with maximum in excellence. Man, let me tell you something. God needs you to have hope because there are people that are depending on the hope of your calling. So as we go into this next year, the next 10 years is going to be filled with a major transition of the church, of kingdom people taking the forefront in making provision. Watch this, for the world, in every kingdom of the world, not just with the people that need our help, but part of the billions God's gonna give me is gonna empower entrepreneurs who have dreams and business plans who don't have the money to match to, oh my God, their business plans. The reason we have a production company, And that's what we've been spending our time doing, making documentaries and films for people who couldn't do it if they needed to go to a large studio or a large production company. We have to become courageous, man. That's what 2024 will be about, being courageous, embracing this new hope so that you can start changing the fear that you are called to influence and change. Every one of you in this live tonight under the sound of my voice, you have a unique call. Oh God, you have a unique call. And I mourn for you. I weep for you because I want you to realize it. This thing was urgent on me because the world needs you. God so loved the world, not the church. And we major everything inside of the local church. The world needs you. That's what Rada is about— deploying dominion into the world. And God said this new hope will breathe life into our world, and many will be changed. Many will be empowered to live their dreams. Many will be empowered to be restored from horrible things. Things like sex trafficking, which is a major— it's the largest crime problem in the world right now. Where's the church? Where's the church? And God is just saying to us, we gotta show up. We gotta show up, y'all. He, he needs— he put that stuff in you for the world. Whatever it is, if you, if you call to train people in their finances, if you're called to help people be better entrepreneurs, whatever your space is, I just need you to understand, as we are in this fourth quarter, get ready now to embrace a new hope, to train at a different level. I prophesied to one of my daughters that she was going to be a doctor. I saw it so clear, and I believe she is. I believe that's part of the new hope, deploying people into the medical kingdom. Who are born again. And so she's got to train, she's got to go to school, no matter how that looks to her right now. It's a new hope that's going to give hope to so many people once she finish. Jesus, oh God, listen, hear the word of the Lord. It's the year of the elected. It's not about the election, it's about the elected. We are his elected people, and God says, I need you to show up. There are people in other countries some of you are called to. You need to show up for those people. Whatever your purpose, your fear of influence, show up. Breathe hope. Breathe life. I'm just proof that God will connect you where you need to be to learn what you need to learn, man. I had no idea. And then my daughter Mia said she heard me tell testimony. She sent me to this movie I— that I got to watch about someone that was doing it as well. And God knows what you need to set fire under you. But if I wouldn't have had all of this warfare this week, It broke me to a place where I had to be quiet and listen. And I'm telling you, God said it culminated tonight when I'm sitting at a $350 plate dinner that my wife and I didn't have to pay for, with— I'm talking about hundreds of thousands of dollars that's been raised, and almost a million dollars probably was raised in total with the dinner and the auctions and everything that happened tonight, just tonight. For some of the same things that the Lord gave me to do years ago when he said, son, it's time and the kingdom needs to emerge. I'm proof. He said, you learn what these men want to teach you, you learn it so you could show up and breathe this new hope for those that you got to influence. Learn what you got to learn, ladies and gentlemen. You are the hope. Someone's waiting on you. Find them. That's what 2024 is going to be about, finding the people you assigned to. You're a life jacket to somebody drowning. Find them. I love you all. I'm done. I have nothing else. Listen, I love you so much with the love of the Lord, and I need you to get off this live tonight And I need you to start praying about how you need to show up in this new hope, because these— there are people that have lost hope. You're the hope. When they see you and what God is doing in you and what you're carrying, it's going to give them life. And again, it may not be necessarily the things I'm saying we're going to do as extensions of our ministries everywhere we are. But the reality is, whatever fear you're called to influence— I know my call is to those that are downtrodden and to entrepreneurs and to people in the business world, in the finance kingdom, in the economic kingdom. I know that's where I'm called, but you got to discover where you're called. I know I'm called to birth out ministries and train leaders, but not just in the church, to train leaders in the marketplace, to— watch this— to develop foundations in the municipality and politicians. So we develop kingdom foundations and get lobbyists ready for Washington. And oh my God, and get governors and presidents and senators ready to go to office in the municipality. We got a lot of work to do. And the world— and this next decade will be strategic because I'm going to say something I heard all my life. You don't hear it much today, but I'm gonna say it now because it's a part of this word, guys. Jesus is soon to come. Ah, he's coming back again, and he's coming looking for a church without spot or wrinkle. The old preacher took that and made it all about sin. But the spot is to say the wrinkle— watch this— the Greek word means without spot or detour, or watch this, being out of alignment or misalignment. I'm coming looking for a church that's not misaligned and a church that's clean. So we could be clean and still misaligned because we're not showing up for the world. I love you all. I love y'all so much. Y'all be blessed tonight. If you feel led to give tonight, please give. Support what we're doing. We, we need your help. Glory to God, because we got a lot to do. I'm not going to tell you what to do. Our church website is rodderchurch.com/donate. You can give that way. Our Cash App is Roderick Church. Be a blessing to our efforts. Glory to God, because we want to see God do great and mighty things. It's scrolling on the bottom of the screen. I forgot I got all this technology sitting in front of me. It's scrolling right there. If you want to give, it's at the bottom of the screen. Whatever you give is appreciated. I love you all. I pray you receive this word from the Lord tonight. I didn't get on here to raise an offering. I got on here to give you the word. But there may be somebody that want to sow because there's a blessing in giving. So get your seed in the ground. I love you all. Y'all be blessed. Have a super night. Listen, I just got a new number. For those of you that had my number, I'm gonna reach out to you guys tomorrow. I'm gonna put together text so that people that had my number can get the new number. I love you guys. Y'all be blessed. Peace.
