Summary
In one line: A long teaching on prayer: "Prayer isn't powerful — God who answers is powerful." You can't earn anything from God; pray from a place of solutions and thanksgiving, not venting — because Christ already became sin.
Prayer and grace
- Preaching is meant to change your mind (Romans 12:2), not stroke egos. "If God could be bought, He wouldn't be worth worshipping." Adam lived in a garden he never planted.
- Prayer is a vehicle; God answers faith within it. Israel cried 400 years until God found Moses — unprogrammed, unlike Aaron and Miriam. "I know people who fasted 40 days — no change."
- "Search the scriptures… they testify of me" (John 5:39): the Bible points to Jesus. God cares about accuracy (Deuteronomy 18:22); fruit = results people benefit from (Matthew 7:16). A Christian nurse once told him "I believe in prayer, not miracles"; he declared a shot man would go home next morning — and he did.
- Philippians 4:6-7: "Be careful for nothing" — anxiety ruins prayer. "God doesn't answer venting; He answers purpose." "You can't walk words back."
Sin, iniquity and the cross
- Forgiveness ≠ repentance: iniquity is the mother of sin; repentance changes the cause. Satan himself fell victim to iniquity (Ezekiel 28:15-17). "Sin is mental illness to God — returning to vomit."
- Eve was deceived; Adam ate so as not to be separated — as Jesus did. We are sinners (victims of sin); Jesus became sin (2 Corinthians 5:21, Isaiah 53:10) — so sin died with Him; He freed captives "from Noah's day" (1 Peter 3:19-20). "What takes you to hell now is not sin, but not repenting."
- Trying to keep the law "frustrates grace" (Galatians 2:21). "Forgiven much, loves much" (Luke 7:47). His sister Benny took months to "just chill" after struggle — that's how we approach God.
How he prays and fasts
- His roar when casting out demons came from a vision of Jesus as a lion — "my revelation, not a doctrine." He doesn't beg for days: "if it's a no, He'll tell me in two minutes." On a fast's third day he sees visions; for his brother Christian's unhealing head wound, an angel told him to apply a warm wet cloth morning and evening — it closed within days.
Prophets
- Prophets vs psychics: the difference is in results — Moses' serpent swallowed the magicians' (Exodus 7:10-12). "How can you be a prophet without sight? Someone lost donkeys — all you can say is 'repent'?"
- He says he came to train in MMA because God told him he'd help fighters, and recounts meeting Jon Jones, prophesying about his mother's internal bleeding — which, he says, was confirmed the next day.
- If your pastor can do it, it isn't the prophetic ministry; prophets reveal God's mind to a generation. "The office cannot be desired — it's from birth." It took him years to accept the title; his Instagram says pastor and founder.
- Closing: thank God before the answer — "He who spared not His own Son… how much more" (Romans 8:32). Announcements: eight upcoming "reveals"; Prophetic School 7.0 (19–21 August); he missed Sunday for his father's wedding.

God bless you all in the name of Jesus.
May the Lord bless you. Um, I'm not trying to really sit. My feet are hurting but from working out, but I think it will be better this way. Anyway, um, we're going to have a good time and this is going to mess with you a little bit, but it will help you. I'm not going to take too much time, but it will be enough time to change your mind.
And the purpose of preaching is the transformation of the mind. It is not to stroke any kind of ego. It is not designed to make you feel a certain way. It is meant to change your mind. That is the purpose of the word of God. The Bible says renew your mind by the reading of the word. When you read scripture, you are not supposed to agree with it. It's supposed to change you. It is not about you meeting the h or all let me let me find a better way to say it. It is not about you reading the Bible in order to find yourself. The Bible is supposed to challenge you and show you that there is a higher standard that God has set for you. Amen. Now the interesting thing about the standard that God has set it is that he shows you that anything that you do of your own merit does not produce anything from God. There is nothing we can do to qualify for anything from God. Listen to me. This is the biggest lie in the church.
You cannot earn anything from God.
Please listen to me. I know what I'm telling you. If you look through scripture, no one ever earned anything from God. If you can earn something from God, then God can be bought. And if God can be bought, then he's not God worth worshiping. Hallelujah. I want you to understand that everything about God ought to be sovereign in nature.
what God has for us, what God wants to do for us, we can't afford it. How can we? We are so rotten, fallen, we deserve death, hell, and the grave. So there is nothing from us that will ever be appealing to God. Nothing. The moment you understand this, your approach to prayer changes. Your approach to seeing God changes.
Everything about you and God upside down. It completely transforms because now the understanding of approaching God becomes different when it comes to prayer because this is in a lot of areas in the church. When it comes to prayer, when it comes to prayer, there is no scripture in the Bible that tells you prayer is powerful. I'm waiting for you to find one and tell me prayer is not powerful.
There is nothing about prayer that is powerful. But you have been taught prayer is powerful. No, it is not. God who answers prayer is powerful. Amen. Hallelujah. Now why am I saying this to you for you to understand? Because you have been taught the more you put into prayer the more you receive. But that is completely wrong because it is treating God like a genie. If I do this then God does that. Yet prayer is about aligning your mind to the will and the purposes of God in order for you to receive anything from God. Amen. You see, we we we do everything in our lives in order to earn. That is the human nature that we inherited from a fallen rotten nature that everything has to be worked for. If you look at our father Adam, Adam was in a garden he never planted.
He was put in a complete situation. He was only told to dress the garden and take care of it. He was not responsible for the trees how they were going to grow. He was only responsible to dress it and to eat and enjoy life. So from the conception of humanity, it has never been about what we can do. It has always been about what God has done. Amen.
Amen. So the understanding of prayer in its fullness, people have completely misunderstood because prayer is only confined to the will of God. Prayer cannot function outside the confine of the mind of God. Hallelujah. I'm going to say that again. Prayer cannot work outside of the confinement of what God has ordained it to do. Prayer has a purpose.
And if you misappropriate the purpose, you have destroyed prayer and you have made it of no effect. I'm going to say that again. Prayer is a tool just like worship, just like praise, just like giving.
If you misappropriate it, if you misuse it, it does not produce anything. Because the purpose of all these tools that God has given us to be connected to him, to be joined to him, has a purpose in changing us so that we may see him as he ought to be seen. Let me tell you something. Christians don't pray more than Jews.
Christians don't even have the level of commitment to those who are practicing Judaism. They have held these traditions for hundreds of years committed but majority don't have a revelation of Christ. Why? because they have propped up traditions above the purpose of God's mind, God's will, and God's intention. This ought to keep you up at night. The children of Israel are in Egypt for 400 years crying to God and nothing is happening.
God is not comforting them. God is not answering them. God is saying, "I am aware of what is going on." And God is not doing anything. God is waiting for a man called Moses. Who doesn't know how to pray?
No, you didn't hear what I'm saying. God is waiting for a man called Moses who has no concept of this God.
Why would God minister his will to Moses? Why didn't he pick Aaron who was already a priest, Miriam, who was already a prophetist to minister to them to use? Why? Because they were already programmed. Yeah. And God does not use things that have already been programmed. God wants somebody that is moldable, shapable, that he can complete his will through. Hallelujah.
Thank you for I wish you could hear me.
The idea of prayer has been perverted.
People prop up fasting. People prop up prayer. People prop up worship. They prop up all these things, but they ignore the importance and the purpose of them. All these things have become a right of passage. They are no longer a matter of revelation.
I know people who have fasted 40 days and 40 nights. No change. Listen, I'm not saying I'm the only one that people travel to. A lot of people travel here. Thousands of people come in and out every month. That is a reality.
Do you think there are no men of God in their towns? Do you think there are no men of God in their cities? I'm sure they are. But why are they coming to a man that looks like me in order to receive what God has for them? There is a reason. Yeah. Why is God answering me?
The same God they serve. Why is he answering me and not them? Why do they need to come to me in order to get help? Why can't they find God for themsel? Is God unfair? Absolutely not.
You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free. You cannot misunderstand what God intended for something and think you're going to get results out of it. Oh, that's good.
You cannot. Amen. People shout prayer is powerful. There is p power in prayer. No, there is no. That's a lie. Jesus even goes as fast to tell you, you see this beautiful Bible that we love? Jesus says there's no life in it. But Christians are killing each other for the Bible. Listen, the Bible is the standard of living. It is the standard of living.
It carries the doctrine that we need for correction, correction, upbuilding, rebuke, all those things. But Jesus is telling you the Bible has no life. It only points to me. That should make you worried. Meaning that if you approach the Bible as the word of life, you're wasting time. Come on. You see, these are things pastors won't tell you. They won't tell you. Yet Jesus said it. He said, "You search the scriptures thinking that in them there is life, but they only point to me."
That is a very strange statement from the God who authored the scriptures. Meaning the purpose of the Bible is to point you to somebody. Hallelujah. So why are we arguing about scripture yet what you're doing is not pointing to anybody that can give results. Ah, you missed it. Hallelujah. I don't think you're understanding what I'm saying. They will tell you, "No, it is not about accuracy of prophecy." God thinks it is.
100%. God thinks it is. He says, "If a prophet tells you something that does not come to pass, uh don't fear him." He's speaking of his own mind. It means God believes in accuracy. Amen. Amen.
That's good. So if a prophet stands and tells you ah you know we cannot tell uh h if if they're using a familiar spirit or this they demonize accuracy means they're demonizing God. Are you understanding what I'm saying? Yes sir. Now am I saying accuracy means somebody is with God? Absolutely not. Just like somebody who holds the Bible and says Jesus Jesus doesn't mean that he's with the Lord. But how do we know them? The Bible says by their fruits you shall know them. He did not say by their deeds. Amen. Fruits means result. Yes. What can people benefit from what you're producing? That is what fruits are. When people talk about fruits, they think it is about what people see.
I can show you a lot of people who live right, but then nobody can benefit from what they have. When you look at Samson, what were his fruits? Not his lifestyle, but what God used him to provide for people. The Bible says the man Jesus, a man approved by God by miracle, signs, and wonders. Why are your prophets and pastors demonizing miracle, signs, and wonders?
Because they don't actually believe in life. They believe in the law. And the Bible says the letter killth but the spirit gives life. It is about giving people life. Amen. How do we give people life? Pointing people to the Lord Jesus. And the Lord Jesus proving by divine intervention that what was spoken to you indeed it is true.
I don't know if somebody's understanding what I'm saying. That is the purpose. Yes, that is the in that is the genuine purpose of what God has provided. Everything points to him. I remember many years ago, I believe this was probably 2009 if I'm not wrong, uh a friend of the family was shot. He was shot. He wasn't in a gang or anything, but a gang passed by where he was and he was shot. He survived and he was taken to the hospital and he was in so much pain. And I went to the hospital uh to see him and um the nurse was there and everything. I asked them, "Ah, do you all believe in God?" The nurse says, "I believe." And I said, "Do you all believe in God? And do you know that God can do tremendous miracles?"
And the nurse said, who was a Christian said, "I believe in prayer but not miracles." I said, "How how does that even make sense?" How can you believe in prayer but not in the power of God?
So conflicting and confusing.
I didn't even pray. I just said by by tonight his pain will go down in the morning they will discharge him. The nurse laughed at me said ah the amount of pain and where they said he has been injured whatever in the morning he was home. Amen. Amen. Hallelujah. Now what am I trying to say to you? There is a way to properly use what is called prayer because it is a tool that makes you have an exchange with God that permits God to reach you where you are. Prayer is not powerful. God is powerful. Amen.
God doesn't answer prayer. God answers faith. that is within prayer. Prayer is just a vehicle. I don't know if you're understanding what I'm saying. Prayer is a car that takes somebody somewhere. But the car is not the power. It is the person that will send the answer that is powerful.
Amen.
How do we know we have prayed the right way?
Thessalonians chapter 5. Actually, you know what? Philippians 4:6-7. Let's start with that. Philippians 4 6-7. Notice what the Bible says. Be careful for nothing but in everything by prayer. Noting. Notice not with prayer. by meaning prayer is just a way. Yes.
Yes. Yes. Notice this. I want you to notice language. I always tell people words have meaning and you have to take words seriously. If you don't take words seriously, you are playing yourself because words are an expression of somebody's mind. So if you understand words, you understand how somebody thinks and processes.
I am very careful with the words I use.
Sometimes I miss it. I don't always get it right. But I can bet you at least 96% of the time my words are so weighed. I don't just say words easily. I am very careful of what I say because you can walk backwards but you can't walk words back. That's a bar. I'mma say it one more time.
You can walk backwards but you cannot walk words back. You just can't. What said he said?
Hello. Hello.
So listen to what he says. Be careful for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your request be made known unto God. Notice this. People just tell you prayer is powerful. No, no, no. Prayer needs some components. It does. Come on. Yes.
If you care about everything, you have already messed up prayer. That's good. That's so good. If you're anxious about everything, you have already messed up prayer. When you want to pray, your worries have to be put to a stop. Meaning, if I am worried and I am praying, I have already ruined prayer. Amen. Because I am thinking prayer is a way to vent. No, it's not. This is so good.
Prayer has nothing to do with venting. This is good. God has never answered somebody for venting. Amen. God only answers purpose because only purpose lasts and remains even outside of time. Hallelujah. Amen. This is good.
Many of you vent in prayer and you wonder why God is ignoring you. Yeah. Because prayer is not about venting. Prayer is about somebody who has come to a place they have decided that they are tired of being tired and they are ready for an answer. Yeah. Yeah. Prayer is about solutions not problems. Come on. Hallelujah. If I decide to pray then I have gone to the answer. Yeah. Amen.
Now you didn't hear what I just said. That's it. The moment you decide to say father in the name of Jesus, your mind has shifted from problems. Yes sir. And it has moved to solutions. Hallelujah. Prayer is about those who are ready for solutions. Yes sir. Prayer is not about venting. Thank you Lord Jesus. Amen.
Prayer is about receiving a response from God. Hallelujah. Prayer is about ah what is God saying? What does God want? Which way should I go? Notice prayer is always in the place of solution.
You can cry to God from a place of pain. But your purpose of praying from a place of pain is so that you can be comforted. Yes.
Blessed are those who cry and mourn for righteousness, for they shall be what? Comforted. They shall be comforted. Notice. Blessed are the poor, for they shall what? The king. Huh? Inherit the kingdom. No. No. The meek. Oh, the meek. The meek will inherit the earth. The poor. For the kingdom of God is the inheritance. Notice for every difficult situation there is an answer. Let the weak say I am what?
Strong. Let the poor say I am rich. Let the sick say I am healed. Notice God is not interested in your complaints.
God is interested in you wanting solutions. Amen.
Amen. Prayer is about solutions. God doesn't answer you because you fasted. Because fasting doesn't change God. It changes you. Amen.
You know, I always laugh at this prophets. And it's not their fault. They are just not prophets. Very few of them are. Now, I'm just being honest. Prophets should be about repentance and and and and and fasting and prayer. That is true.
But so can your pastor do that. If your pastor can do it, if your evangelist can do it, if your teacher can do it, then that is not the prophetic ministry. Let's be honest. If you can do something that another division in the body of Christ is doing, then what you're doing is not the ministry of a prophet. Yes.
Yes. Wow. They think preaching sin means repentance. No. Do you know why the Bible there's a difference between asking God for forgiveness of sins? Please listen to me. Asking God for the forgiveness of sin is one thing. Repenting is a completely different thing.
Asking for forgiveness is being taking responsibility for the wrong you have done, acknowledging that it's wrong, and asking God to forgive you. That doesn't mean you have repented because to repent is to change the cause of what made you do that thing in the first place. That is why before sin is born, iniquity is the mother of sin.
Iniquity produces sin. But you see, they only attack sin, not the reason why you came into sin. And that is iniquity. Iniquity is more dangerous than sin because you can be forgiven of a sin, but you still have iniquity. That's good. And iniquity is only removed by repenting. The change of mind, not stopping to do what you're doing because you can stop doing what you're doing, but you have still not repented. Yes. When the temptation comes, you will do it again. True.
Because what? Iniquity is still in there. Look at Satan. Do you realize that Satan himself is a victim of sin?
The church treats sin to be a product of Satan. And that's not true. Satan fell victim to sin. You puffed yourself up by reason of your beauty.
Iniquity was found in you and then you sinned.
So when God looks at us, sin is the manifestation of what iniquity births. But cutting off sin is not the answer.
Killing iniquity solves the sin problem.
This is why the gospel is called the good news. It means there is a way out.
Amen.
So is somebody understanding this? Because sin is simply mental illness to God.
Oh, you didn't hear me.
Sin is mental illness.
Sin is the the the distortion of the mind that God created you with. That's what sin is. That is why sin is singular, not plural.
It is a way of thinking. That is what the Bible tells us in Philippians, let this mind be in you that was also in Christ Jesus. Why is God wanting you to change your mind? Because sin is a result of a distorted mind. When God looks at us and we are in sin, eating our own vomit, that is mental illness.
That's good. How do you throw up? Something bad comes out of you and you go and eat it again. Mental illness. It means something is wrong with you. And God sympathizes with us. That is why he gave us the Holy Spirit. That is why Jesus died on the cross. That is why he gave us his word so that our mind can be renewed. So that we can look at vomit and realize that vomit is not food. Amen. Hallelujah.
Hallelujah.
So hear me by the spirit of God.
Notice Adam and Eve people think they are sin. Notice what the Bible says. It says the man was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and she's the one who sinned. Notice according to God, Adam didn't sin. Do you realize that? That's in Timothy. It says the woman being deceived, she became the sinner. But what was the sin? Adam also ate the fruit, but the woman was the one that was deceived. Wait, how does that even make any sense? Through one man, sin entered into the world. People think it was Adam's action. No, it is who came out of Adam.
Are you understanding? Through one man, sin entered into the world. Are you not getting it? as deep. So if Eve messes up yet Adam cannot produce anything without Eve. It has also distorted Adam. Yes, it has. This is good. How is it a crime knowing between good and evil? So Adam and Eve, sin entered through them. And the woman being deceived, she sinned. But Adam also parttook of that.
But it's not saying not not Adam. She's the one who sinned. But Adam also started messing up. For we have all fallen short of the glory of God. We have all sinned. But I want you to understand the progression of it. The first person who was distorted in the mind was Eve because she was told if you eat this you'll become like God. That's why he doesn't want you to eat it. So she said this is what he's saying is appealing but also the fruit looks good for food. So she ate it and when her mind changed she also went to the husband and gave it to the husband. The husband ate it knowing that my wife has messed up but if I don't eat then I'm separated from her. So he parttook of it so that he's not separated from her.
Just like the Lord Jesus came and he became sin so that he's not separated from us. That is why it's called the second Adam. Amen. Are you understanding something here? So the Lord Jesus also parttook of something that he had nothing to do with.
That's it. Amen. But the difference between Adam and the Lord Jesus is this. The Lord's mind never changed.
Let me put it this way. Let me help you understand this. Let me push it a little deep.
Let me help you. What is worse? I want you to think of this carefully, brilliantly. Take your time and think which is worse. Being a sinner meaning that you are doing something not of your own will because that's what sin is. Sin makes you do what you don't want to do. Some people have given into sin and it has become something that they do but in reality nobody really actually want to wants to sin because sin is bondage. Yeah.
That is why those who smoke, they want to stop smoking but it's killing them but they don't know how to smoke to stop smoking. So they tell you don't smoke but they are smoking. Are you getting it? Those who are alcoholic will tell you I don't want to but they are still doing it. Now these are extremes that I'm using to explain here but notice it is something we are fighting against. Apostle Paul, one of the greatest apostles that ever walked on the earth, said, "The good that I want to do, I don't do, and the bad that I don't want to do is the one I do." So therefore, if I sin, it is no longer I who is sinning, but sin that lives in me.
So a sinner is somebody that is victim of sin. Do we agree? Yes. Hello. Hello.
When you become sin, you are the cause of people's fall.
Wow. Wow.
A sinner is simply somebody that is a victim. That is why God forgives us. Why does God forgive us? Because we have a tempter. Somebody that is making us to fall. Satan is not forgiven because he has no tempter. He chose to fall.
I want you to understand that we are forgiven because somebody enticed us. So God being just, he has to forgive us and he has to help us out because we were tricked. But Satan had no tempter. How did he mess up? He chose to. It was a decision.
Are you hearing me? Yes. We are corrupted from conception. We were conceived in sin.
But when you become sin, you become the cause of why people are falling. Please think.
So we are sinners.
Jesus became sin.
Pay attention. We are sinners. But Jesus became sin. Why is God listening to somebody that became sin and is not listening to you who is simply a sinner?
I want you to use your brain and think. Jesus became sin. The Bible says Jesus took upon himself the sins of the whole world. You don't know what that means. You need to understand what that means. Jesus became past sin and future sin. Yes. Meaning Jesus became the reason why people fall. Because he became sin. If you read in Isaiah, can you bring it up from Isaiah, please?
Can you bring it up? Jesus became sin. It did not say Jesus became a sinner because a sinner is somebody that is engaging with sin. Yeah. So the Bible says Jesus never sinned. Are you guys listening to me? Yes sir. But he became sin.
Yeah.
Benny, can you find it for me? Isaiah 53:10. Mhm. Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him. Mhm. He had put him to grief. When thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand. How is God pleased by somebody becoming sin and God is displeased with a sinner?
Do you realize the Lord Jesus when he died on the cross? I'm just provoking you to understand the to understand the intensity of what the Lord Jesus did and to understand the the confines of prayer.
When the Lord Jesus died on the cross and he descended into the world of the dead or what the Bible calls sh, the land of the damned, the Bible says he left he he led the captives free from the day of Noah to present time for those who are disobedient. Meaning everyone before the time of Noah didn't go to hell.
Because disobedience of mankind is highlighted from the time of Noah. Yeah. Why is that? That's very strange.
I don't know if somebody's understanding this. And Jesus comes out of the underworld and he brings out everyone that was in hell from the day of Noah to present time when they were once disobedient. The Bible says that is why the Bible compares the last days to the days of Noah. Why? Because the days of Noah is when God's wrath came down because of sin. It was the beginning. So you imagine from the time of Noah to Sodom and Gomorrah, all these ninjas, Jesus visited them and took them out of hell.
And we who came after the cross, the same sacrifice works for us. How? Come on. Because he did not just die for our sin. He became sin.
He became the embodiment of it. He became the embodiment of sin.
Please understand this. He became the embodiment of that sin. So killing Jesus was killing sin.
Hallelujah. You don't get it. Hallelujah. No, you didn't get what? Hallelujah. So it doesn't matter if you're before the cross or after the cross. Sin died. Lord Jesus. Wow. Hallelujah.
Oh, that's you're not understanding it yet. I pray that this reality actually dawns on you. Yes. This is why when you ask for forgiveness, you are forgiven. But God is not just interested in you asking for forgiveness. Why? Sin died. Yes. What will take you to hell right now is not sin. My Lord is repentance.
I know they will cut this video, but I want you to pay attention. Wow.
Jesus died for our sins. It means sin is not a problem anymore. The problem is repentance. Come on.
That is why you find that the gospel is about repentance. Yes sir. It focuses on repentance. Not just remission of sins. Whoever shall believe and be baptized shall be what? Saved. Doesn't the scripture say that? Yes. Can you find it for me, Benny? So that they can see. They don't say, "I made this up." Amen. Romans H Romans chapter 10. Uh-huh.
Verse 9. Uh-huh. That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For Notice, notice now when people read this, they just think it's about confessing Jesus. What are you confessing? The death of sin. Because the only way you are being saved is because sin died. Hallelujah. Wow, this is dead. This is dead.
When he died, sin died, but he rose up and left sin in the grave.
You're not hearing me. That is why the the apostles declare. Where is your sting or death? Because they know death can no longer hold us. Why? Sin died. Sin died. Hallelujah. Now the problem is repentance. Because if you don't repent, you are still in the old condition. Yes.
The cause is gone. Yeah. The renewing of the mind is the problem now. Because let me tell you the truth. Who can stand and say, "I've never sinned?"
Your pastor was saying, "Repent. Stop stealing. Stop killing." He's talking about people, gossiping about people, falsely accusing people. You're still sinning. There's no human being on earth without a sin.
So if the rapture happens, we should all be left. Because every sin is sin to God.
Sin is sin to God. A liar, a thief, a murderer, a deceiver, a gossiper. A hater.
You're all the same to God. You are all filthy. We are all filthy. So if the rapture was to happen right now, what is the reason we're going to be saved? Not because of us, we'll be saved on account of Jesus why sin is dead. So if you are in Christ, that's why the Bible says Jesus our Lord becomes our righteousness.
So we are not saved by good deeds.
Hallelujah. So imagine now how many people have said the prayer of salvation the wrong way. Yeah.
Mhm. That's true. 2 Corinthians 5:21.
For he hath made him to be sin for us who knew no sin that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. A read that again. For he hath made him to be sin for us who knew no sin. Uhhuh. That we might be made the righteousness of God in him. So you are not righteous because of anything you do. Somebody already took the fall for what you're doing. Amen.
Yeah. Amen. Listen, if you still have to do something to go to heaven, the cross is useless. Yes, sir. Yeah. Can you find that scripture that says it makes the cross of no effect for me? Yeah.
So now when we talk to God in prayer, these guidelines have to be there. Yes. Yes. If these guidelines are not there, you're playing yourself. Because we have no merit in the presence of God except what Jesus has done. That is our only merit. Is somebody hearing me or am I?
That is the only merit we have. We have none of our own. Nothing.
Thank you, Father. Father, nothing. I'll say it again. I have nothing. Nothing.
Nothing. If I don't have you, that's really to Jesus for real.
It's first Corinthians chapter 1:1 17. Listen, this book is hes keep read for me. For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.
Ah, and there's another one, I think is in Romans that says, "Then Jesus died for nothing." Mhm. You you know which one I'm saying? Yeah. Yeah. I want you to look at that. Apostle Paul, that man was a different kind of man. If you think, do you realize Muslims uh Muslims say Paul twisted scripture? Do you know that Muslims attack Paul the most? Not Peter, not the James. They attack Paul. They say Paul twisted scripture. You see, every time somebody has the spirit of revelation, people who don't have it, they will say you twist scripture. The disciples were still preaching circumcision.
Paul comes and says uh God doesn't want circumcision. E our father Abraham circumcised people. Jesus was circumcised. You are coming to tell us they don't need circumcision. He said look is in the Holy Spirit falling on them like us. That should tell you the circumcision you're fighting for means nothing. Wait what? God is seeking the circumcision of what? The heart. Meaning change your mind. Let go of the old ways. Wait what?
That's crazy. The apostles being full of the spirit, they understood if that scenario was today.
They already are looking for a way to have pitchforks to burn some people. That's how Christians are. Yeah. Galatians chapter 2 21. Uh-huh. I do not frustrate the grace of God. For if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain. Look at this. Listen, listen, listen. I want you to hear this. Uh-huh. I do not frustrate the grace of God. How do we frustrate the grace of God? For if righteousness come by the law. When you try to keep the law, you're frustrating grace.
music
Hallelujah. Uh you didn't you didn't read it. I didn't say it. Paul said it. Yeah. I do not frustrate the grace of God. Meaning I don't fight with God with what God has said. Yes. If he says it, then I'm cool with it. I do not frustrate the grace of God. For if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
How many people are teaching you to frustrate grace? Yeah. Yeah. They think when we talk about grace, you are saying go and sin. That's no. Listen, even without me saying go and sin, you're already doing it.
You didn't hear me. Nobody needs to tell you and go and sin. You're already programmed. Yeah. From conception to sin. No one needs to tell you anything. You're already doing it. So whenever the Bible declared somebody righteous, it's because they believed in what God was saying. Amen. Not because they did something. Amen.
Jesus always said, "Believe in whom the Father has sent."
For I do not frustrate the grace of God.
For if righteousness comes by the law, then Christ is dead in vain. Imagine the Bible is telling you, "The letter killth, but the spirit gives life. People still want you to keep what will kill you." I see. Wow, look at how crazy that is.
music
Jesus said, "This sums up the law and the prophets. Love God with all your heart and love your neighbor as you love yourself." Do you know what grace does? It teaches you to love God because God shows you shows you his love first. Amen. Please hear me.
Grace shows you the heart of God and what God has done for you while you're still in your faults in order for you to learn how to love God. Why? Because he that is forgiven much loves much. Yeah.
He that is forgiven less loves what? Less. So when you look at yourself truthfully through the lens of scripture, you know you deserve hell. Then you know what you have been forgiven from is much. Your love for God will be much.
Now I want to just pose you a question before we pray. I want to ask you a very profound question. If God answers you because you have done good, then how did he answer you with the best that he has to offer, which is his son Jesus when you are in sin?
Yeah. Wow. Yeah.
How did he answer you with his best when you are still a sinner? That's why the Bible tells you we are saved by what?
Faith through grace. Faith in what he has done. Grace has made that possible. Amen.
So whenever you come to God, surrender yourself to the place of grace. Amen. Hear me. Surrender yourself to the place of grace. Don't frustrate the grace of God.
Please, I get on my knees every day and I ask God to forgive me and to renew my mind. Why do I do that? Because I know we are fallible. We mess up all the time. It's human nature. You mess up. I mess up. We mess up. We all fall short of the grace of God. We all do all the time.
But I know my asking is because of grace. Not because I'm I'm now making God feel some. No, that's nonsense. I'm simply accepting what God has done. Amen.
I'm going to use my little sister as an example. I'm sorry, Benny. Forgive me. When my little sister came, I took her from Houston and she came every day. She did not know how to just chill. I have to do something. I have to do something. I'm like, Benz, can you chill? No. You know, I have to get something done. This and this and this.
I was like, yo, rest. You are so used to struggle. Even now, you are in a place you don't need to struggle, but you're still making yourself struggle. I have to do this. I was like, Benny, relax. It took a month. Am I not saying the truth, Benny? Very true. It took her months for her to just understand like it's a different life. It's not what I used to be in. It's not where I was. Somebody will actually take care of all my needs and I will start to do ventures from that place. Amen. It's a different thing. I'm not comparing myself to the Lord, but I'm giving you an example of how God works. Amen. God comes in our life and covers all our needs and he gives us the grace now to explore the vastness of his grace, his love and what he has to offer through his son Jesus Christ. Amen.
So we don't use our strength when we come to God. Amen. We use our sunship when we are in God. We use our privilege when we are in God. That is what God wants from us. Amen. Amen.
This thing is simple. So when I pray, go back to uh um Philippians 4 6-7.
Be careful for nothing. Notice now we have learned the mindset of what Jesus has done. Right? Amen. Now, I want you to read it with that mindset. Okay. Okay. Read. Be careful for nothing. Uh-huh. But in everything with by prayer and supplication, Uhhuh. with thanksgiving. Uh-huh. Let your requests be made known unto God. Why are you giving thanks to God when you're making your supplication and your prayers? What is a supplication? A supplication is like an application. Yeah. Are you understanding? Yes. Yes. So there is prayer and then there is supplication.
It's another form of prayer. He said don't care about nothing but with prayer and supplication. Make your request known to God with thanksgiving. Why are you giving thanks? Because whoever comes into the realm of prayer, they have come for their solution. Yes, Lord.
You're going to the bank not to receive a loan. Yeah. But you already approved for aid. Amen.
Hallelujah. Are you getting what I'm saying? Yes. You are already approved for what you need. And they tell you, "Oh, there's no interest rate. There's no need to give back. There's no go and do what you need to do." Come on. So, what are you going to do when you're going there? You know that you're going to get the money that you need without having to pay back. Listen, I'll be thanking God daily because I know that Hallelujah. I don't know if somebody's getting it.
Amen. So, when I'm going in there, I know my application doesn't have to be perfect because I'm already approved. Amen. All I need is to be thankful. Look at your clapping. Let me talk to the people who are online. Hallelujah. Understand the magnitude of how prayer works. Notice how I cast out demons. I don't use force. I really don't use blow say hey it is not about my it has nothing to do with your with your volume there are times that passions get fired up me my annoyance is always why are you messing with people get out you're wasting our time that's usually until I used to catch I said don't waste my time. I was at ish. Should I be saying that? Because to me it's annoying. Do you understand what I'm saying? But it is not in the volume of my voice. It's truly in the simplicity of the relying on God produces the power to make people free. No relying on my voice. That's good. Hallelujah. So when people see me doing hey, they don't understand what I know by the spirit why I do what I do.
Are you getting what I'm saying? There's a reason why I do that. It's my own revelation with the Lord Jesus.
It's my own personal revelation. I saw the Lord Jesus as a lion and he roared and that roar came through me. And when I watched back, I didn't even know that I did that. I realized that that's what I did. And I was like, yeah. The way the demons trembled, I said, truly the lion of the tribe of Judah visited me. Hallelujah.
From that day, anytime I'm praying for people, it is a natural instinct and they hate it because you in the physical, you are hearing my voice. In the spirit, it is Jesus the Lord of Lords. The king. Hallelujah. That when he does that, it's like, hey, demons are don't even know what to do with themsel. But I can't tell you that is a doctrine.
Now you do that's for me.
Pray from a place of winning. Don't pray from a place of venting. Yeah. God does not answer venting. Thank you, Father. God does not answer complaints.
When you go to God, you go for solutions. Amen. When Jesus went to people, he would say, "Do you believe I'm the resurrection of the and the life? Do you believe I can do it?" Because you don't invite him for him to hear your complaint. He got no time for that. Even though he has all eternity in his hand, he has no time for that. Why bring my presence to a place so that I can hear you making noise and not solutions?
Why? How does it benefit him? You complaining, throwing a fit, doing all these acrobatics, and he's wondering, "Yeah, okay. Are we going to fix this or not?" Okay. You're not interested. When you're ready, let me know.
When they call, I will answer. While they are still speaking, I will hear. Notice God answers you before you finish praying. Because coming to him is an act of solution. When they call, I will answer. While they are still speaking, I will hear. Father, he already took care of it. So when you say, Father, in the name of Jesus, you start praying from a place of thanksgiving. Father, I thank you. I brought this problem but I understand just mentioning your name. You know all things. You know the beginning from the end. You have already taken care of it.
I am just talking as a matter of protocol. Father thank you for healing my body. Father thank you for delivering me. Father thank you for fighting for me. Father thank notice it's a different mindset. Yes. Yes. When you come in prayer with me you'll be very disappointed.
You'll be extra disappointed.
Ask Benny. Ask Ask Chaz. Ask my household. You'll be very disappointed. You think I'll be cut very quiet. Will I pause myself and I'll speak to God. He will speak to me. I will get up with an answer and I will leave.
There are times I do tar in the presence of God, not because I'm making him do anything. I do that in order for me to remain in his tangible presence. Amen. Because there is something about the presence of God that molds us into what God wants us to become. So I love I may remain in prayer for hours because I just want to adore him and maintain that presence around me because when you are in his presence when you leave you live bright.
There's a light that follows you. Amen. That is evidence that you have been with him. Amen.
So sometimes it's not about the answer, it's about the presence. That when you walk away, you walk away with what? The presence. presence. I don't believe in spending the whole day asking for an answer.
You may believe that. Good for you. I don't. I believe God is my dad. He wouldn't need me to beg him for a day. Yeah. For me to for him to answer me. Amen. My son doesn't have to ask me for anything for a day. And God is a better father than me. If it's a no, he will know within the first 2 minutes of him asking. If it is a yes, you will also know that it is my will from the beginning. So I don't believe in spending days asking God for something. I may spend days to receive a revelation concerning something very different. When my brother Christian was leaving, the doctors were trying to fix a wound that he had on his forehead and they couldn't seem to figure it out.
And I took 3 days to get revelation of what I need to do. Usually for me, fasting kicks in. After 3 days, I start seeing visions. The first day it's I'm still here. The second day I start now going in and out. The third day I'm fully inside. I usually, this is not for everybody, this is for me. On the third day, I start seeing visions.
On the third day, I start dreaming dreams. On the third day, I start having heavenly encounters from the third day. And the more it goes, the crazier it gets. But for me, it begins after the third day. Very few times by the first day already tell me stop and he answers me. But usually my thing of staying in that state is because I want to calibrate my flesh in his sight completely humble it so that I can be in the spirit for some time and figure out certain things. You have to understand that revelation is not just about God speaking to you but it's a condition you have to be in. Yes. You have to be a channel that can decode the mysteries of the spirit. The Bible says it is a king's what?
A king's honor to conceal a man or to unveil to unveil a mystery. To search it out. I was testing you. Look at you, Auntie Ben. It is a king's honor to search out something. So for me when I fast it's to figure out and to see something that God has as a mystery that will take me to come out of where I am to go and look for something to understand something. So when I fasted for the first days the second day the third day the angel of the Lord came to me physically and he told me okay um take a cloth put it in water warm water. Do you remember what? No, Ben, you are not there yet. Chaz, you are there.
Remember, warm water, put it on his forehead morning and evening. Just put it there for a few minutes, morning and evening. And in a few days, it will go away. I came out of the vision, came back to myself, he departed from me. I got up, I closed fasting, I went home. I just went and took a cloth and I did that second day. something that you could see his skull from the wound within the first day he started the flesh started coming together the third day he was gone when he went to the hospital for him to be checked the doctor was like I don't know what you did but whatever you did keep doing it it was very strange for them because they didn't understand how that pulled together but for me God gave me a mystery are you getting what I'm saying amen because But I know that everything that God has done, he has already there already there for us. So searching out a mystery. Oh, how does this work? Oh, just do this and do this and do this. I came back and I was given instruction and I went and I did it and it worked. Is somebody understanding what I'm saying? Yes. Does it mean if you put a warm cloth on wound on a wound, it will heal?
No. That's what I was told. And I did it and it worked right before every even the doctors were baffled. Is this making sense? Yes, sir.
Pray from a place of solutions. Amen.
Fasting doesn't give you answers. God gives you answers. Amen. Prayer doesn't give you answers. Only God gives answers. Let me show you how God how good God is. God answers many of the things that we never even prayed for. Do you know that? Yes. Yes. If you are honest, you will discover that God makes rain and sunshine to fall both on the evil and the good. God is always answering people, even people who are against him.
Right now you are alive. Did you pray for life? No. No. He just gave it to you.
There are some things that you wanted so bad you didn't even put it in prayer. He gave it to you all the time. Because if he is good, he has to do acts that are outside of you for you to remember his goodness. Amen. If it's only confined by you asking, then he is not good.
I want you to rise up.
And uh just a disclaimer uh maybe no actually disclaimer is not the right word because this is off topic for a second. Uh a quick announcement. I have about eight reveals back to back back to back beginning Friday. Amen. Uh okay I will scratch it. I'm going to post all of them tonight. So, there will be a lot of flyers so that you can save the date.
Very interesting stuff for you to to enjoy that will really build you up in the Lord Jesus. Amen. I have crazy crazy things.
It's going to break the internet. I promise you.
You know, I I I said this the last time and I'm going to say it again. Really, God called me to be a disruptor. The truth because you know people will always fight you when you have to change the minds of people.
When people have to change the way they think, hey, it is a war. Because people who love the old ways don't let it go easily.
people who held on to CDs saying it will never you people who held on to VHS. I showed my son a a a a Walkman and he was like what is this? He didn't even me. I'm like do you know how this was the thing? I showed him a disc man. He was like what is you carried this around?
I'm just like dang. I showed him a floppy disc. He didn't even know what that was. You know like all these things were some of us our experience some of you even in here don't know what that is you see like the two are like no hey Jesus we are dinosaurs but I'll tell you this we had the best of life we saw the transition of everything you know we saw we saw some
applause
stuff people had to walk with boom boxes you We had to have like um headphones with the cotton balls. You remember those? Yeah. You know, then you're working out and these guys have everything wireless. That was a dream for us. If this could if you could just imagine having a phone and talking to we had cell phones this big. I remember my mother Sony Ericson and all that stuff. Those things were pages and stuff.
FaceTime is the norm for them. For us, it was like, "Wow, if that ever happens." But you see, you can't you can't listen. It is. Listen, change is inevitable.
It is happening whether you like it or not. Period. Self-driving cars was a dream. Now, every car that is coming out has has already the cruise control is the old thing. Everything has changed and it will continue to change. If you like the old ways, you'll get lost.
God does not progress. Revelation is progressive from our perspective. Why? Because we are discovering what God already set up. Amen. For the future. Amen. Not that God is changing. Yes. Our understanding has to change in order to catch up with where God is. Yes. Amen. That's all that revelation is. Hallelujah. If you are trying to keep the law, you are walking around with a boom box.
music
Hello.
That is the reality.
The Lord has called us to a better place. Amen. So, I have some reveals coming up. I don't know how I got to that, but we have some cool reveals coming up. And then, and then prophetic school. Do we already have the website set and everything? Yes. Uh, prophetic school, Dreaming Prophets part two. Prophetic codes. Uh, this will be a good one. Prophetic codes. Prophetic codes will be phenomenal. So, sign up already. It's going to be amazing. 7.08 I know. Hey, we have done so many.
Eh, it's going to be beautiful. Amen.
It's going to be beautiful. I want you all to sign up. Sign up. Sign up. Sign up. It will be lifechanging. Amen. It will be completely transformative. You see, don't trust somebody that is telling you dream interpretation yet they can't prophesy.
Are you getting what I'm saying?
Because pro the prophetic is a revelatory gift. That is the prophetic ministry. It's about revelation. The revealing of the invisible things. Yes. Do you realize your the word prophet is a letter revision of the word seer and oracle? When people tell you, "Ah, now the prophets and the and the psychics, there's no difference." No, you don't understand why God instituted the prophetic.
God instituted the prophetic because the prophetic is the version of God of what people have perverted.
God told the children of Israel, don't go to those who have a familiar spirit. I have given you my prophets. So what you would get from them, they will give you better and they will give you something that is from me, something that won't take you to destruction. So when they say there is no difference, the reality is they shouldn't be.
The difference should be in the results that are pleasing to God. This is why you find Moses takes the staff, throws it down, and he turns into a snake. What did the Pharaoh's magicians do? They did the exact same thing. The difference was Moses's serpent swallowed theirs. Hallelujah. So the difference is in results, not in that you can't prophesy, so you call other people that have that have the gift people with familiar spirits.
I I don't know if you're understanding. Yes, sir.
If you look at a murderer, they have a gun. The police also have a gun. The difference is what are you using it for?
What is your intention? And what are the results?
Is this making sense? But a gun is just a gun. Is this making sense? When they tell you, "Oh, you can't tell the difference between a prophet and a psychic." And they really the the envy is the ability to see. How can you be a prophet without sight?
If somebody came to you and say, "I lost my donkeys." All they can do is tell you, "Repent."
They can't prove to you that God is God.
They can't prove to you that the Lord is real. They can't prove any of these things to you for you to sit down and reconsider and say, "Well, I am giving up my tarot cards. I'm giving up my crystals because God is a living God. I don't know if you understanding. Not everybody will be warned the same.
Do you know how many celebrities I've brought to Christ because of my gift? People really think I started doing this yesterday. One of the greatest mixed martial artists of all times. Of all times. Of all times. You can message him and ask him this. He will tell you what I'm telling you. One of the greatest mixed martial artists of all times. He's already considered the greatest and he hasn't even retired.
He's been champion since he was 22 years old.
a friend knew him and said ah you know uh uh I know him uh uh and God had told me that I was going to meet him and pray for him. That's how I started training mixed martial arts. That's how I started doing Muay because God told me I'm going to help some of them fighters. I help a lot of fighters by the way. Pay rent for some of them. I do all these things all the time. I just don't tell you.
When I when God told me that I was going to help him, when one of my family friends introduced me to the sport and I saw him, the Lord told me, "You're going to be of help to him in the future." I started training because I wanted to know which kind of person I'm going to help. You cannot help people that you don't know what they go through.
So, I took interest and started training because of that one reason. I wanted to know the emotions they go through. Even if it is in a small scale, I wanted to understand what they go through. You cannot help people who you don't understand. Yes. So I did that. By the time I met John Jones, I had the the the friend came to the studio and I said, "Hey, how is he?" And she said, "Oh, you know what?
Let me ask him how he is." And when she messaged him, he said, "I'm actually in LA." The person said, "Yo, I want you to meet the prophet, even if it's like for a few minutes." And he said, "Yo, I just want to meet him for like for like I'm going to meet you guys for like 5 minutes." When I got there and I met this man, 3 hours later, I was the one asking that I have to leave.
When I sat down with him, he's a brilliant and a very intelligent man. Actually, a really nice guy. You know, I realized something. When you get to a certain status, people just look to destroy you. And some people grew up in the public eye where people will not show you grace, yet they do worse.
I sat down with him. I prophesied his mother's condition, what the doctors had find found in his mother, what had happened to his mother, how the doctor said that the internal bleeding and this and this. And I told him by the morning the Lord said the bleeding won't be there. This and this is going to happen. That and that is going to happen. He fell. He never told me any of these things. He fell on his knees lifted up. We are in the lobby.
You have to understand this is a 6'5 man big guy over 240 something pounds. This is a fighter fighter on his knees in the lobby lifting his hands to Jesus in the lobby. Hallelujah. Crying to God. his manager, first round management, uh um his name is Mali, one of the nicest people I know. Mali was there looking at me saying, "How do you know these things? How how do you know this? How how do you know this thing?" Right there. And I told him, "You will let me know." He left. He He left. The next day he went to see his mother, flew to New York to see his mother. Him and his brother.
Everything that I told him had happened. When his father called me and his father wanted to talk to me, I spoke to his father. I even told him the leg of the of his wife that was amputated. Which one?
Completely. The faith of the family was strengthened in the Lord. I've done this many many times. I flew to his father's church to minister in his father's church, a small community church. People were touched. The miracles that happened in that place, it was crazy. But you have to understand that I have been doing this since I was 6 years old. I know what it means to be a prophet. Not people who yesterday decided to be a prophet or one year ago now all of a sudden the Lord said the Lord said we haven't seen the fruits. Your ministry hasn't been tested. You don't know what it is to hear from God. Do you know the pressure of people traveling every week to hear what God is saying? Do you know the kind of pressure he puts on you to tune yourself to hear the Lord all the time?
I don't think people understand the burden. It's too much. But God has given us grace to do so. So I know what the prophetic ministry is. There is a difference between between being prophetic and being a prophet. That is why you find they will see a pastor and they will say he's a false prophet. No, say he's a false pastor.
If you can't tell the difference between a pastor, an evangelist and apostle, you will not even you don't even know because to them, the people who say they are prophets don't prophesy. Wow.
How can you be an evangelist that doesn't go out and save souls? Come on.
What evangelism are you talking about? It's true. How can you be a soldier without a gun, without going to war? You're not a soldier. How can you be a soldier without going to boot camp to be trained and be prepared for? But you're not a soldier.
How can you be a writer? You don't write anything.
Are you Are you understanding what I'm saying? Yeah. No, you're playing games. You're just You're just in You're just a hobist. That's good. That's good. Casting out demons is for the whole body of Christ. Hey, the ministers and the flock of the Lord Jesus. We all have power over demons. You casting out demons doesn't make you a prophet.
It doesn't. That is not the prophetic m ministry. Oh, nobody should come to me and ask me about what God is saying. They should go to God for themselves. Then you are not a prophet. That's right. Even the apostles fasted and prayed and prophets will come and tell them the mind of God. People who are with Jesus still heard from men who did not walk with Jesus who are prophets.
Hallelujah. The agabases in the scriptures. People still came to hear what the mind of God is. Paul would go to hear. What are you talking about? Some people, oh, you know, the prophetic min mystery is no longer how it used to be in the Old Testament. Who told you that? When does the Bible say that the prophetic ministry has changed? I I I have never seen that in scripture. The Bible is telling you the foundation of the church is built on the apostles and the prophets. Why did he say the prophetic ministry change? He never said that. All these concepts is because people don't understand what a calling from God is.
Not you nominating yourself. A true calling.
Who is a prophet? The Bible says this in the book of numbers. If they be a prophet among you, I the Lord will make myself known unto them.
If you haven't seen him and he hasn't commissioned you with the words and he hasn't sent you because a prophet is sent for a specific assignment. Prophets are territorial commanders.
They change the trajectory of the church when they are sent.
It is not just somebody that just entertains. No, that's not the prophetic ministry. I'm sorry, it is not. Saying people's names is good, but it's not the prophetic ministry. It is a revel a revelatory gift. It is good. I will never insult. The Bible says, "I am the Lord who knows you by name." So, if God calls you by name, it's a good thing.
But the prophetic ministry is about revealing the mind of God to a generation in a way it has not been seen in the previous generations. That's what the prophetic ministry is about. Repent has been preached since 2,000 years ago. You're not preaching anything new.
Prophetic ministry is completely engulfed in the realms of revelation.
Unveiling those things that are hidden. That is the purpose of a prophet is to reveal. Reveal the mind of God. Reveal the intention of God. If your pastor can tell you to fast and pray. In fact, if you are Christian, you need to be told to fast and pray, you are baby Christian. In Matthew chapter 6, the Lord Jesus said, "When you pray, when you fast." He did not say when you pray and if you fast.
Prayer and fasting are what we ought to do. Yes. Amen. So, a prophet doesn't come to tell you fast again. No. Notice Jonah went into Nineveh, revealed the mind of God for the Ninevites. And the Ninevites by revelation they said, "Let us fast and wear sack cloth and ask God to forgive us." And by this perhaps God may make his wrath pass over us. Notice their response to destruction was to fast. Jonah didn't tell them to fast. Amen.
Are you understanding what I'm saying? Because throughout scripture, it is known to fast is to humble yourself before God. So I don't need to tell you to fast. If you read scripture, you know you need to fast. If the Lord Jesus Christ did it, you ought to do it. Yes.
Repentance is the work of every believer. But when you teach about love, you're teaching people to repent. Amen.
When you teach about loving your neighbor, you teach about forgiveness. You teach these are transformations of the mind. Repent means turning your mind from the old ways. That is the reality of it. That is not the prophetic ministry.
That is just called being a shepherd. It's not anything new. Jesus came so that our minds can change.
For those who he forneew, he also be predestinated to be conformed to be changed to be like Jesus. That's normal. What are you revealing is the prophetic ministry. Amen. Are you getting what I'm saying? Yes. That is the prophetic ministry.
So you cannot claim to be something that you can't do. Stop it. Just say, "I want to do it so bad. I want to be that that so bad." It's okay. Honestly, desire the gift. But the office cannot be desired. It's God-given from birth. Amen.
Moses was already a prophet from birth. He just didn't know.
Nobody becomes a prophet later. God is calling you to the prophetic ministry doesn't exist. Just like God is calling you to be a pastor. No, calling is from within.
You will try to run and he will pull you to himself.
I have never met a real prophet who wants to be a prophet. At some point we just accept all right God whatever you say. The name prophet just brings a lot of do you know how many years it took me to accept that title. When people used to come to the house when I was min ministering at the house do you know what they used to say? We're going to lose. Everybody used to call me brother Lovie. I loved it. The Lord said if they don't call you a prophet, you're robbing them of what they are supposed to get from you. It took me a long time to say I'm a prophet. People just knew that I was a prophet. Anyway, I never commanded anybody call me prophet. Loi never existed. You know that, Madame Rice.
It's true. I never asked anybody to call me a prophet. When I made my handles, I used the name prophet because if you go to my Instagram, actually it is written pastor and founder of revelation church, not prophet and pastor because a prophet is not a title. It is who you are. Amen. I never wanted that title. But every time I ministered to somebody, they were like, "Ah, this guy is a prophet." Remember the Lord Jesus speaking to the woman at the well. What did the woman say? I perceive that you are a prophet. I perceive this is undeniable. You are a prophet. And she went into the city. I met a man who told me everything about myself. They are all demonizing you being told about you. Jesus was telling her about her husbands and the one she's living with. Why did Jesus need to tell her that? She already knows that. That's their concept. Why do you need to tell somebody what happened in the past? Why is Jesus telling somebody how many husbands she's had and the person that she's with is not hers? What is the point? And Jesus said, "You have said correctly. You've had this many and the one you're with is not yours." What was the point? He didn't even say, "Repent."
Yeah. The woman went into the city. What did she say? I have met a man who has told me everything about myself, everything about my life. Notice you realize God knows you and it makes it easier to even repent before God to say I am sorry before God because you're like he knows everything anyway. What am I going to hide?
doing this.
So people are literally criticizing what the Lord Jesus Christ did. Imagine that. People are literally criticizing what the Lord Jesus did. What the apostles did, what the prophets in the Old and the New Testament did. May God have mercy on us. Amen.
I want you to lift your hands to the Lord and you're going to thank him for solutions. You're not going to pray. Hallelujah. You're going to thank him for solutions. So what you want, you're going to say, "Father, in the name of Jesus, I am actually thankful that you already know what I want and I am thanking you for the answers concerning this, concerning this, concerning this, concerning this, concerning this, concerning this. I want you to be grateful." Yes. before God with thanksgiving. Make your supplication known. Notice with thanksgiving make your request known.
Meaning you cannot ask God for something without thanksgiving. These two go together.
Yeah. These two go together. Meaning you have to see God's ability to answer you and you have to know that he has answered you. That is why he made you to come to him because you cannot come to God unless it is predestinated. You are not hearing this message by accident. Come on. It is not just one day you bumped. You were actually designed for you to encounter this day and to hear this message.
Thank you, Lord. This is not an accident. Amen. This is not just something that just happened. Amen. No, that's not true. This is intentional from the heart of God himself. Intentional. Amen. Because nothing is by accident with God. Everything is on purpose with God. Amen.
It doesn't matter what you're facing. It doesn't matter what you're facing. It does not matter what you're facing at all. Is there anything too difficult for God? Absolutely not. So what you're facing is not a measure of your weakness. It is a measure for God to show you how much bigger he is than what you thought. Amen. Because if nothing is difficult for God, it means all that you are facing is the same. God giving you that miracle, God giving you that breakthrough is no different than God h opening a door for you. It is no difference than you feeling the presence of God that you're feeling now. Amen.
Nothing is difficult for him. Amen. Meaning all things are easy.
Hallelujah. Nothing is difficult for God. All things are possible. Possible. He's able to do all things. Amen. Our ability to see his power is what h limits us. Why? Because the prayer you're praying is supposed to channel God's power to go through you. But if you don't have the capacity for that answer to go through you, don't blame God. It's you.
Because when you're speaking to God, God will release something in you. Yes. to fix the problem. Now, if you cannot have the capacity to receive that thing, you're going to blame God. Yet, it's not God. God will say, "I answered, but you don't have the ability to receive. It's not my fault. I did my part." Wow. Thank you, Father. So, thank thanksgiving is changing your eyes to begin to see, hey, he can do this.
If he made the sea, how does my problem compare to the ocean? It's not even a drop. Don't even try to go far. Oh, he laid a whole nation through the sea. That's too much. You can't visualize that. Maybe if you watch ten commandments, some people have a very strong visualization ability. Good if you can. But the reality is look at the things that you can observe and compare to God's ability. Look at the Milky Way.
We You can't even see us. We are not even a speck. We are not even a spec. But he knows us. He has numbered the hair on our head. Come on. That should show you the magnitude of this God that it is like dust, but he knows exactly where we are. He positioned us perfectly among the planets. It's it's just hey, you know, I'm I'm sorry to add this. I was looking at um I love watching documentaries now. I like getting into documentaries and things like that. And I was watching like um uh they took rainwater and put it under a microscope. And you just realize how many much how many more life forms are not observable by the physical eye that are still material like it it is strange but God knows everything.
He even knows a speck of atom. God is just lifting your hands to heaven. Begin to thank God for what he has already made for you, what he has accomplished for you. Lift your voice and speak to the Lord. Hallelujah. Father, we thank you. I can hear you. I can hear you for what you accomplished. Thank you for what you've already done, Lord. Even as we come before you today, lift your voice. Lift your voice. Giving God, let thanksgiving ring. Have the answer, Father. Thank you that you've already given the solution, Lord Jesus. Thank you. We come with gratitude. We come with thanksgiving, Father, for the answer is already available. Father, thank you for what you've already done concerning our families. Thank you for what you've already done for our children. Thank you for what you've already done in our homes. Thank you for the solution, Lord, regarding that financial situation. Thank you for the answer, oh God, regarding that career issue. Thank you, Lord, even for the answer to the health that we're facing right now. Father, we thank you. Father, we thank you. Father, we thank you. We come because you have the answer. We come because we are ready for the answer. Thank you Lord Jesus for solutions today. Father in our thanksgiving father give us the capacity to receive the answer. Father we are ready for the answer. We are ready for the answer. We are ready for the answer.

answer. Thank you for the answer, Lord God. Thank you. I can't hear you thanking God for that open door. I can't hear you thanking God for that healing. I can't hear you thanking God for the grace that has been increased in your life. I can hear you adoring God, lifting his name. Thank you, Father, for the keys he has put in your hands. Thank you even for the keys that you have put in our hands right now. Thank you, Father, for always caret.

You are loved by God. Amen.
The Bible says who he did he did not spare who he who did not spare his only son and gave him up for our sake. How much more will he do for us? He did not spare the Lord Jesus. Amen. He did not spare the Lord Jesus. He gave him up for you so that you can be healed. So that you can be delivered. So that you can be blessed. If the Lord would allow his only begotten son to die for you, do you really think he's not willing to heal you?
Do you really think he's not willing to bless you? Do you really think he's not ready to intervene and bring your children back, to bring your spouse back, to restore your families? Do you really think he wants to keep away the promotion with the job he made available for you?
He did not spare his son because he desires to give you his best. Amen. That goes beyond your ability. It goes beyond what you can do. It solely depends on the grace and the righteousness of the Lord Jesus. In the mighty name of the Lord Jesus. You are already blessed.
You are already healed. You are already delivered.
Your doors are already open. Amen.
Your families are restored. Amen.
Your children are coming back.

I think you can clap better for the Lord Jesus. Jesus. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you. I want you to grab the best you want to give God. Amen. As a sign of just thanksgiving, we are not buying the blessing of God.
