I think it was foes faith and 12 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:57,320 family. However, you want a powerful. 13 00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,600 Powerful, powerful hurt Elder Brett slated. 14 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:09,020 Thank you, Elder Brett. It's good to. 15 00:01:09,020 --> 00:01:12,180 Be in the House of the Lord grounded my to get grounded and 16 00:01:12,180 --> 00:01:16,140 worship is good to see all your beautiful faces and my wife and 17 00:01:16,140 --> 00:01:20,340 I literally we were supposed to be back here yesterday and our 18 00:01:20,340 --> 00:01:23,140 flight was canceled in Toronto and we have to get up at 4:00 19 00:01:23,140 --> 00:01:25,520 this morning and get on a really early. 20 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:27,720 It was like what's that 1:00 AM for you guys? 21 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,520 So you guys were snoring and then some of y'all was up 22 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:34,800 snacking. I was yeah, we was at the 23 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:42,160 airport and then we just got off and literally went home and got 24 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:46,360 a chance to hop in a cold, cold tub for a second. 25 00:01:46,960 --> 00:01:52,120 I'm telling you, it'll, it'll bring you back quick and we're 26 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,240 here. So it's good to pause for a 27 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,160 moment and worship with my family. 28 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:02,960 I want to give you something that I gave to the community. 29 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,320 I will do my best moving forward. 30 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:11,520 Remember, I was studying and I laid this before the Lord and He 31 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,400 laid it before me. And just something to help the 32 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:18,600 community and myself personally and what to expect when you come 33 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,760 in to hear the word #1 We're going to just just this little 34 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,880 formula, this little lens that you can expect the word to be 35 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,120 taught. But it's just three things. 36 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,560 It's exposed, it is equipped, and it's to excite. 37 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,120 OK? We want to expose, equip, and 38 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:38,240 excite. I'm going through this like 39 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,040 really quickly because this is not the message today. 40 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,640 It's just I want you to just be able to lean in intentionally. 41 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:46,720 A lot of people come to church don't know what we're really 42 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:51,960 listening for. We we're our ears are 43 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,760 critiquing. Our ears are really are 44 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,000 repenting. Like everybody's in here 45 00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,120 listening for something different. 46 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:03,040 But if I can give you a framework so you can at least 47 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:08,440 try and understand as I deliver. So expose, equip and excite. 48 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:14,280 So to expose is is is to bring into light, into the light what 49 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,360 has been influencing in the dark. 50 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:23,640 So as we start the word, we want to try and expose what has been 51 00:03:23,640 --> 00:03:25,960 influencing our lives in the dark. 52 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:30,040 Somebody say expose. When we expose, we name the real 53 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:34,640 enemy, we identify false narratives and we uncover 54 00:03:34,640 --> 00:03:40,040 spiritual patterns that have quietly shaped our homes. 55 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:45,200 To expose as you cannot defeat what you refuse to identify. 56 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:52,280 Exposure is not condemnation. Exposure is clarity and then we 57 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:58,120 want to equip someone say equip. To equip is to supply what is 58 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,920 necessary to win. That's instruction and that is 59 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,640 formation. To equip we leave with tools, 60 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:09,680 biblical understanding, spiritual posture, and practical 61 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:15,800 handles to give you some practical day-to-day handles and 62 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,160 biblical understanding of what the text is saying. 63 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:25,520 Equip if we if exposure reveals the war, equipping teaches us 64 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,200 how to fight correctly. There's a lot of Christian 65 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:33,240 people, families, we're fighting but not fighting correctly, 66 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:35,880 right? We're fighting hard, but we're 67 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:42,280 not fighting wise because many families are fighting hard but 68 00:04:42,280 --> 00:04:45,480 fighting wrong. And then lastly, we want to 69 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,120 excite. We want to excite and that is to 70 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,600 awaken. Awaken courage and restore 71 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:56,840 expectation. Excite does not mean emotional 72 00:04:56,840 --> 00:04:58,600 hype. I'm not here. 73 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:04,360 To it can be a somber ending, but you leave excited because 74 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,800 God did a deep work. How many people know that you 75 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,520 should start getting excited when God exposes you? 76 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,120 Somebody say exposure is a blessing. 77 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:22,200 It means prophetic ignition. To excite is prophetic ignition. 78 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,560 We want to leave you with a charge. 79 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:29,400 And then we remember who we are. We remember what God has 80 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,720 promised, and we remember how this really ends. 81 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,080 And then excitement is confidence in covenant. 82 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,640 Excitement is confidence in covenant. 83 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:47,400 Take 30 seconds with me and let's pray as a family, pray 84 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:52,160 that your neighbor hears what God has for us today. 85 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:55,400 We thank you ahead of time, Lord. 86 00:06:02,980 --> 00:06:08,900 Thank you ahead of time, Lord, We receive it in advance. 87 00:06:09,700 --> 00:06:13,100 We receive it in advance. If you are watching at home, 88 00:06:15,060 --> 00:06:18,740 just receive it in advance. Lean in, take notes, take 89 00:06:18,740 --> 00:06:24,480 screenshots. Hey man. 90 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:30,360 So two weeks ago, two weeks ago, we started a series called What 91 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,280 Family matters. The week before that we launched 92 00:06:34,280 --> 00:06:39,120 our marriage worship encounters, which is every first Sunday 93 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,120 evening. And that was phenomenal. 94 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:45,880 And that was Marriage matters. And this year, we are committed 95 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:50,440 to discipling our marriages and our families. 96 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,760 You can bring that down some. You scare me. 97 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:58,000 Family matters from generation to generation. 98 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:05,480 That's where we started. And then Elder Brett, Elder John 99 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:11,200 came last week, last Sunday and did a phenomenal job. 100 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,600 Now I'm saying what I'm about to say, not because I'm not a good 101 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,720 student and not because I'm careless, but I want, I want to 102 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,840 say this ahead of time because if God repeats something today, 103 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,600 it's not because I watched Elder John's message last week. 104 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:33,920 I did not. I just trust Him. 105 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:38,080 I was busy doing what I was doing all week. 106 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:42,800 Time change and I went to bed every night in Toronto no 107 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,200 earlier than 230. AMI did not have time to watch 108 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:49,280 Elder John. I wouldn't have I I watched a 109 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:53,160 little bit, got a little, I had to overlook some, some of the, 110 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,600 the, the recaps that went up throughout the week. 111 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,880 So I got some of that. But trust them. 112 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,720 It's important because if God says something or repeat 113 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,480 something, you don't, you know, we're not sitting here talking 114 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,320 and then I'm coming up to say something, trying to be 115 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,080 prophetic. No, if God says something. 116 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,640 Neither did I have. Time to go listen to Elder 117 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:11,480 Brett. I'll trust them. 118 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:15,360 So if God repeats something, if he says something and maybe he 119 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,760 doesn't, but sometimes people instead of be able to receive 120 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,320 what God is saying, it's crazy that God speaks. 121 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,800 It's crazy that God confirms his word through multiple people and 122 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,920 they actually didn't talk. It's crazy. 123 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,000 You can sit in church and you God says something you've been 124 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,440 dealing with all week and you think somebody told your 125 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,880 business like like God wasn't where you was at. 126 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:40,440 Like no, no, no. Like how they know that? 127 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,360 God. Somebody say God. 128 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,880 So family matters from generation to generation. 129 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,440 Y'all pray for me because I am about to tackle something I've 130 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,640 never tackled in my life. I have stayed away from talking 131 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:55,880 about family because I have been trying to build 1 myself. 132 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,880 So I don't know. I, I, there's some things that I 133 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:02,440 felt I've had to go through and understand in order to come up 134 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:06,800 here as someone that can really, really teach you about family. 135 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,960 And I think I'm just about there to understand some stuff. 136 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:11,360 Where's Malia? Make sure she come out here. 137 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:12,520 Tell her I miss her face right here. 138 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,760 And and then right and and I I I I. 139 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,960 But it's so many layers. We can go so many different 140 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:26,440 places in talking about family. And if you're influenced by 141 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:28,680 where everybody else is talking about family, is it 142 00:09:28,680 --> 00:09:30,680 relationships? Is it what? 143 00:09:30,680 --> 00:09:33,080 What direction do you go? Do you want to go with messy 144 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:34,240 family? What do you want to do? 145 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,800 I want to do my best due to Apostolic nature and prophetic 146 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,120 nature in this house. I want to do my best to get to 147 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,680 the roots of the issue. Not just talk about the fruit 148 00:09:43,680 --> 00:09:46,360 and get you hyped up because it's easy to talk about messy 149 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:50,440 family and get you like oh girl, Oh yeah, you all in my family. 150 00:09:50,560 --> 00:09:55,200 No, no, no, that's good. But if but trying to eradicate 151 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,960 the enemy's plans and that's what we're after. 152 00:09:59,920 --> 00:10:06,800 Now one last thing, 100% of the people in here, God is speaking 153 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:13,120 to us today and it's going to require you to listen for 154 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:19,960 yourself and allow the Holy Spirit to take you real deep to 155 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,640 understand what he's trying to get out, not out of you merely, 156 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:28,560 but out of your bloodline. OK, it could be your first day 157 00:10:28,560 --> 00:10:31,800 here, it could be your last day here, but God got something for 158 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:36,280 you if you're what here. Family matters generation to 159 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,840 generation. One statement I will make from 160 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:45,080 that that that message was God is the architect, not culture, 161 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,560 not trauma. And not your effort. 162 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:51,640 God is the architect. Unless it unless the Lord builds 163 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,280 a house, he that builds it builds it in vain. 164 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:56,840 Don't care how smart you are, how much money you make. 165 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:58,760 Unless the Lord builds the house. 166 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:05,160 OK, here we go. Early formation shapes. 167 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:06,920 Reflex. OK, follow me. 168 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,080 I'm gonna throw a few. Few things out here early, and 169 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,520 if you can stick with me to the end, I promise you you'll walk 170 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:17,920 away with something early. Formation shapes reflex. 171 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,720 Early formation shapes reflex. What am I saying? 172 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,200 What you have to pay attention to, these first few things that 173 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:30,600 I'm throwing out is things that I want you to listen for to help 174 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,240 you shape your understanding throughout the message. 175 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,600 So when you see certain things, you're going to be old when that 176 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:42,600 was happening as a kid, that's form that's forming how I'm 177 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:47,280 parenting and how I'm living. Right, and God has not caused 178 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:51,920 any of us to modify inherited behavior. 179 00:11:57,350 --> 00:12:00,710 Here's a modification. I'm not going to be like my mom. 180 00:12:02,110 --> 00:12:04,150 I'm not going to be as broke as they were. 181 00:12:04,550 --> 00:12:07,110 So you modify versus saying God, who am I? 182 00:12:08,590 --> 00:12:11,510 Big difference. You are modifying your life 183 00:12:11,710 --> 00:12:13,830 because you are saying I will not be like them. 184 00:12:14,110 --> 00:12:15,510 I will not be a Christian like them. 185 00:12:15,510 --> 00:12:17,270 No, no. Who has God called you to be? 186 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,280 And there's so many people living making sure they're not 187 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:26,440 that. If This is why I found out guys, 188 00:12:26,560 --> 00:12:30,200 God will let you go all the way to your grave without you 189 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:34,480 correcting yourself. Here's it is He got you for 190 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,640 eternity. He good. 191 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:42,520 He will do everything to get you to turn, everything to get you 192 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,000 to transform, but he will not make us. 193 00:12:45,560 --> 00:12:46,960 I will get there. I'm ahead of myself. 194 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,040 The curse may be broken, follow me. 195 00:12:50,560 --> 00:12:56,440 But patterns must be exposed. OK, the curse may be broken. 196 00:12:56,440 --> 00:13:00,040 We can declare that all day. But if the curse was broken, why 197 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:01,040 we still stink? Faith. 198 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,280 If the curse was broken, why are my families still a mess? 199 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:09,720 Because what we focused on is curse being broken, cross taking 200 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:13,080 it all. But what Jesus did not do is 201 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:18,400 break our patterns. He broke he he broke the curse 202 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:22,080 and he took the power of the enemy so that we can walk in the 203 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,600 power and authority to break these patterns. 204 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,440 Watch this The curse may be broken. 205 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,520 But. Patterns must be exposed. 206 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,640 Here it is. Once patterns are exposed, 207 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:37,680 patterns must be eradicated. It is not good. 208 00:13:37,680 --> 00:13:40,360 For you, for the Lord to reveal something. 209 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,080 And sometimes the Lord don't have to reveal something wrong 210 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:44,360 with you. You know something wrong with 211 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:45,760 you? OK. 212 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:49,960 But what the Holy Spirit does, He takes us deep so we can get 213 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:51,760 to the root. Somebody say the root of it. 214 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:57,200 Once patterns are exposed, patterns must be eradicated. 215 00:13:58,560 --> 00:14:03,120 Somebody say who? You telling families fracture 216 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:08,240 before the arguments? Who you telling church is split 217 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:11,600 before the votes? You. 218 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:15,600 You caught it. Marriages drift before the 219 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:20,360 papers. Children rebel before the 220 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:25,040 confrontations. Hearts drift before the 221 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:29,120 distance. Homes weaken before the 222 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:34,440 collapse, our pastor out in Cleveland said When they gone, 223 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:35,200 they gone. They don't. 224 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,800 Even matter if they still here when they made-up they mind, 225 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:38,800 they gone. Guess what? 226 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:43,480 They gone. See, we see the aftermath of a 227 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,200 decision that's already been made. 228 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,920 Families fracture before the arguments. 229 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:54,720 So before the divorce, the marriage was already over. 230 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,840 You fail to identify the cracks, the fracture, and deal with it 231 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:02,760 by the time the papers are submitted. 232 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,920 By the time the church is split, before the votes are submitted, 233 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:10,040 the people that voted already took the other side. 234 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,680 Marriages drift before papers are submitted, children rebelled 235 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,360 before the confrontations, hearts drift before the 236 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:22,880 distance, and homes weaken before they collapse. 237 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:31,600 Because environments are shaped before events ever explode. 238 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:40,360 It can't break if it didn't have the environment to support it. 239 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:48,080 Before divorce ever comes, before poverty ever comes, it 240 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,680 had to have an environment to live in. 241 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:52,800 This is why we take probiotics sometimes. 242 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:56,920 We create a good, healthy gut culture so certain things can't 243 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,040 live. It can't survive in our gut, 244 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:01,280 right? There's can't. 245 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,200 One of the major things that feed cancer is what? 246 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:12,640 Sugar the environment and what we don't realize. 247 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,400 You don't realize it later. Stay focused BT that's why you 248 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,080 did all these slides. OK? 249 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:23,120 Because environments are shaped before events explode. 250 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:27,960 Because cultures are established before the shaking. 251 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:32,320 When the wind blows and the shaking comes, it only reveals 252 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:40,480 what's rooted. Because cultures are established 253 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:43,120 before the shaking. Watch this. 254 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,400 That's not just, I'm not just talking about in in here. 255 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,200 I'm talking about in your house, in your life, in your biological 256 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,200 family and the family you are creating. 257 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:57,360 Because humanity fell before we were even cursed. 258 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:03,320 You realize that we fail before we were cursed. 259 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:15,240 We got cursed because we failed. Oh Lord, help us today. 260 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:20,720 Watch this because we hid before we ever repented. 261 00:17:26,099 --> 00:17:28,740 Watch this. We're better hiders than we are 262 00:17:28,740 --> 00:17:36,400 repenters. We're better excuse makers than 263 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,360 we are repentance. All God wants you to do is 264 00:17:38,360 --> 00:17:43,720 repent, not say sorry. Repenting is not the same as an 265 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:45,840 apology. An apology is not the same as 266 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:46,760 repenting. Watch this. 267 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:48,800 Here it is just keep. Just throw these. 268 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,120 Throw these in there. Strongholds. 269 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:52,840 Let me help you. What a stronghold is. 270 00:17:53,000 --> 00:18:00,040 Strongholds are arguments. The reason it has a grip on you, 271 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,640 you don't realize this, is because it argues for you. 272 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:10,960 It makes a case to stay in your life, whatever it is. 273 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,960 If you have something that is constantly cycling in your life, 274 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,960 it has convinced you it's OK to stay. 275 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:24,080 Strongholds are arguments and arguments are beliefs. 276 00:18:24,360 --> 00:18:30,240 If the stronghold, well if it can stay and it has a strong 277 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:34,080 argument, then I begin to believe. 278 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:40,080 Again, my belief shapes my patterns. 279 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,000 Let me tell you, I was doing this message, I was repenting 280 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:51,280 the whole message and my patterns are. 281 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,880 Caught before they're ever taught. 282 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:06,920 Strongholds are arguments. That lie made an argument, you 283 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:13,520 believed it gave that lie a home and you have watch this. 284 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,080 You could be looking at some people and you think they 285 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:19,880 talking about you not because they messy but because you 286 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,680 insecure. But you only have an insecure 287 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:28,800 thought because every lie lives in a narrative, and that 288 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:33,240 narrative, until you break it, actually is your reality. 289 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:42,120 You can think somebody don't like you and watch this and you 290 00:19:42,120 --> 00:19:45,560 go throughout your life blaming. People for not being there for 291 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:47,920 you or whatever. But you're not going way back to 292 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:51,640 where that abandonment issue was ever birthed. 293 00:19:53,360 --> 00:19:55,600 So what you do is you go from place to place, people to 294 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,600 people, relationship to relationship, trying to find 295 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:02,560 someone to help you not deal with the stronghold. 296 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:08,960 I thank God I had, the pastors I had. 297 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,960 You can ask my wife, man, they made it hard for me. 298 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:19,000 To remain dependent on them in an unhealthy manner. 299 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,320 Watch this. The enemy had access to your 300 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:32,320 life before you were even born. You didn't have to do 1 sin for 301 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,040 the enemy to have access in your life. 302 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,240 Remember that. Remember that the enemy uses 303 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:41,800 generational evidence and data. Are you with me? 304 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:50,080 Stuff like your father was angry, right? 305 00:20:50,120 --> 00:20:50,920 You. You know that. 306 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:52,760 Guess who else know that he know that? 307 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:00,200 But up like men in your family do not stay. 308 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:05,000 They don't stick around. What's this here? 309 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:08,280 Here are certain things some of us don't even realize. 310 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:11,640 We have certain cultural biases. So when we see a certain people 311 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:15,960 group, we automatically think a certain thing about that people 312 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:21,640 group, not even on purpose. Right, Let's let's just deal 313 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,800 with it. Sometimes you see somebody and 314 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,080 they can't drive and you don't see who not drive. 315 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:29,280 You don't see who driving but but but sometimes who can't 316 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:30,520 drive. It's a people group. 317 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:40,880 It's the people group or it's it's a gender, or when you see a 318 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:44,080 certain skin tone, or when you see a certain hairdo, or when 319 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:45,920 you see a certain thing, automatically you had this 320 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:50,240 narrative about that person because television or trauma has 321 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,920 framed your reality, even about people. 322 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:59,600 And instead of spending the time to get to know them, you already 323 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,640 draw conclusions. This is alive in the church. 324 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,720 This is alive in the workplace. This is alive in the world 325 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,160 because the enemy has been at work since the garden. 326 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:11,800 Watch this. It ain't just church people. 327 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:15,040 The enemy don't want humans to get along. 328 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:22,680 Men in your family not only got a few, but we can be here all 329 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:23,200 day. What? 330 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:28,560 What are some of these things? You'll never break this cycle 331 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,400 because no one has in your family. 332 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:36,200 What if I told you that you would literally be the first one 333 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:40,040 in your family to break this specific stronghold that's 334 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:44,800 generational? Like like, like nobody really 335 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,600 think that's why we need to become like warriors in the body 336 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:52,720 of Christ because he's trying to eradicate like, like I'm talking 337 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:54,640 about stuff. You get what I'm saying? 338 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:58,960 Like have you ever went to the family dinner or holiday and 339 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:02,320 everybody meant like there's some things in your family that 340 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:06,560 no matter they've been doing it for for years, man, I'll go, 341 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:10,600 I'll look, I'll go, I'll go.

The first response to sin in the 438 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:57,280 Bible was blamed. This is called the blame reflex, 439 00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:02,080 and everybody in this room blame something or somebody at least 440 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:07,560 once a week. You don't, not even verbally, 441 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,880 just even in how you look at the situations you in or how you 442 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,240 feel the way you feel or why you feel the way you feel. 443 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,120 In our mind, there's a stronghold, there's a narrative. 444 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,520 I'm not where I need to be because somebody didn't open the 445 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:27,200 door for me. I'm hurt because of no, no, no. 446 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:32,400 What if I told 100% of us, there is something in your life that 447 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:36,440 you are blaming someone else for and the person that is to blame 448 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:43,680 ain't even alive no more. Before they just moved on with 449 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:44,920 your life. They didn't even know but what 450 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:48,440 the first recorded response to sin in human history. 451 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:50,560 This was Adam. Where are you? 452 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,360 Watch this. God asked him first. 453 00:30:56,000 --> 00:31:01,560 He asked the woman. Then he got to the he asked the 454 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:05,240 leader first. He asked the man first what was 455 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:07,320 what's up? He blamed her. 456 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:11,400 Watch this. Watch how quickly it passes down 457 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,840 in the family. And she blames the serpent. 458 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,200 Oh, we going, we going, we going to get some help today. 459 00:31:26,570 --> 00:31:30,330 The first Adam shifted responsibility. 460 00:31:31,410 --> 00:31:35,010 The. Second, Adam embraced it, where 461 00:31:35,010 --> 00:31:39,890 Adam said she gave me, Jesus said I'll drink that. 462 00:31:39,890 --> 00:31:43,770 That's that's my cup of sin. Although I did not sin, I'm 463 00:31:43,770 --> 00:31:46,010 going to take responsibility for they stuff. 464 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:52,840 First Adam shifted responsibility. 465 00:31:53,240 --> 00:32:00,080 The second Adam embraced it. Here it is from the garden to 466 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:01,800 now. When something breaks, Troy 467 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:05,440 hurts or is disappoint, disappoints humanity looks for 468 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:10,120 someone else to point at external target. 469 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,000 There has to be a reason, there has to be. 470 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:17,680 God did it, God permitted it, or his sovereignty, or the devil 471 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:22,080 did it, or my Mama did it, or that rape did it, or that 472 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:25,520 injustice did it, or they don't understand me. 473 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:31,400 It's it. At the core of the fall was not 474 00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:34,040 really the fall. It was the blame. 475 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:39,080 Adam's response was not one of repentance. 476 00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:43,520 It was one of excuses. I am stuck where I'm at because 477 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:47,560 of. Instead of saying Lord, I repent 478 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:54,240 and return immediately. Watch this, watch this, watch 479 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:55,520 this. Guys, I hope you're ready for 480 00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:57,280 this.

What do? 482 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:04,840 What do you people mean by going around the country repeating 483 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:06,960 saying the parents ate green apples? 484 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:10,200 Watch this. The parents ate green apples. 485 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:11,800 The children got the stomach ache. 486 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:20,000 We're not going to park here today, but this is in the 487 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,600 backdrop. The parents ate the sour apple. 488 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:29,440 The kids got the bellyache. Just remember this. 489 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:35,480 Watch this from history. Adam fell. 490 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:41,800 We all pan You. You. 491 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:42,920 You mean we.

Like you could. 494 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:53,000 No one man messed up. One man came to fix it. 495 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:55,680 But for thousands of years, guess what? 496 00:33:56,280 --> 00:34:01,640 One man and the ripple effect throughout generations. 497 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,200 Watch this. The parents ate green apples. 498 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:06,840 The children got the stomach ache. 499 00:34:11,159 --> 00:34:20,120 I was like, Dang, keep going. Blame was born in the garden and 500 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:24,120 by the time Ezekiel's day was, blame became a proverb. 501 00:34:30,380 --> 00:34:33,980 Blame still is a proverb. Blame is why some of us stay 502 00:34:33,980 --> 00:34:35,860 stuck longer. Than we need to stay stuck. 503 00:34:41,270 --> 00:34:44,429 Do you know how intoxicating blame makes you? 504 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,400 Do you know the power you give away when you say they? 505 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:56,679 The reason I'm here you why I feel this So unless you change, 506 00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:05,120 I can't watch this.

Reclaiming the altar of my 515 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:33,120 family. Reclaiming the altar of my 516 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:36,240 family. Come on today, say that I'm 517 00:35:36,240 --> 00:35:38,560 reclaiming the altar of my family. 518 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:42,360 Now watch this statement, though. 519 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:49,200 It ain't my fault.

This is real grown people stuff. 524 00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:07,600 It half of counseling sessions, half of it's, it's people having 525 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,240 to process stuff. Now watch this before we go. 526 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,320 It is people having to process stuff. 527 00:36:14,240 --> 00:36:18,800 Is that they inherited, not they did. 528 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:24,840 So for a moment I want to tell you that there's certain things 529 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:28,120 that you've inherited that are not your fault. 530 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:34,200 Got that? It's nothing wrong with saying 531 00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:40,400 it's not my fault. OK, this is a real tension. 532 00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:50,120 It ain't my fault I was born in the family I was born in. 533 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:56,400 I was just born in it and God found fit for me to be in that 534 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:58,760 family that I don't feel like I fit in. 535 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:04,320 God saw fit for me to be born in the city I was born in. 536 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:08,240 The financial, the economic situation I was born in, the 537 00:37:08,240 --> 00:37:10,840 year I was born in. God saw fit. 538 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,760 There is a lot of stuff that you were born into. 539 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,200 You did not ask. You did not ask for your 540 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:17,120 parents. Guess what? 541 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:23,160 They didn't ask for you either. They didn't ask for you either. 542 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:30,920 OK, watch this. All of us just had to get here. 543 00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:39,320 God just had to get us here. And from the beginning he had a 544 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:44,400 plan that no demographic or geographical location can stop. 545 00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:48,600 So it don't, it don't matter if you were adopted, it don't 546 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:51,520 matter if you were abandoned. It don't matter if you was rich. 547 00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:56,640 It don't it does not matter. You could have been born into a 548 00:37:56,640 --> 00:38:02,040 rich family so God could deal with you about the greed issue. 549 00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:07,600 So you might be the person called to be the humble one in 550 00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:11,880 your family and and and and break the the it's not the 551 00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:16,360 wealth God is breaking in you. He's using you to get mad. 552 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:21,720 The spirit of Mammon out your bloodline and then he put you. 553 00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:25,160 He put something in you before he put you in that. 554 00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:31,960 Because whatever God put in me once he put me in my bloodline, 555 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:36,000 whatever God needed me to interrupt, I was born with. 556 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:44,920 So you can't look at all my family, my situation, and yet it 557 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,400 ain't my fault. But what if I submitted to you 558 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:52,840 today that you were born in the perfect family because God has a 559 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:59,880 perfect work to do through you? Watch this Some, some of us grew 560 00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:03,880 up in houses. We did not design, we inherited 561 00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:07,680 tempers we did not choose. Come on, this is your moment to 562 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:10,800 just to, to to blame somebody. Yeah, you, you know what? 563 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:12,920 My crazy attitude is not my fault. 564 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:16,400 Not my that's my Mama fault or my daddy fault, right? 565 00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:19,200 Like like sometimes I know my Mama might be watching, but I'm 566 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:22,960 like, man, I can't let I got a stronghold with chips. 567 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:29,720 Like I just love chips. Watch this and then it'll be one 568 00:39:29,720 --> 00:39:33,200 in the morning and Micah hop out the bed. 569 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,640 I'll be like, where you going? He'll walk back in with a bag of 570 00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:40,080 chips and look at me like. What I got this from you and. 571 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:43,480 Then he's sitting next to me, crunching. 572 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,120 And I'm like, Dang, it ain't my fault. 573 00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:50,360 No, no, no, no. Watch this. 574 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:54,920 It's chips, right? We know where too much fried 575 00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:58,040 food can get you. I didn't ask for that. 576 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:05,880 I was born into that. Chips sound funny, but then you 577 00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:12,080 add in fried food, you add in pork, you add in we not even 578 00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,160 getting to other generational stuff. 579 00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:21,000 You add in diets you inherited. And then you wonder why you 580 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,240 struggle with some of the things you struggle with with your 581 00:40:23,240 --> 00:40:27,640 health. This is why this message is 582 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:32,800 important because you've been trying to get healed on the 583 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:34,880 surface. But God is like, I'm actually 584 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:37,880 trying to. If I just heal you from what you 585 00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:43,040 dealing with, then whoever comes after you, the seed will still 586 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:50,440 be in the bloodline. Inherited tempers we did not 587 00:40:50,720 --> 00:40:54,840 choose and we watched. Memory could be caught before 588 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,080 it's taught parents. You do not have to sit down and 589 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,280 tell. Your your kids don't have to see 590 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:02,520 you arguing. They don't have to hear you 591 00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:05,040 cuss. Watch this. 592 00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:07,560 You know how you like. I don't know where they got that 593 00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:11,000 from. I promise you some of the stuff 594 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:12,560 you say, I don't know where they got that from. 595 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:15,520 You going to see this later? They got it from you. 596 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:24,000 We think that the multiplication of a stronghold should look the 597 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:31,920 same as my turn with it. Strongholds diversify themselves 598 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:37,320 from generation to generation, so it will manifest in a 599 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:40,760 different way if you never deal with it. 600 00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:45,200 This is how the enemy will hide in the bloodline because you 601 00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:49,360 dealt with it for how it manifests in your life, but you 602 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:52,840 didn't get to the root of it, so it's out of everybody life in 603 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:57,520 your bloodline. Come on, watch patterns that 604 00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:02,760 you, you watched, patterns you didn't create, you watched. 605 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:09,520 It may not be my fault here, it is, but it is my responsibility. 606 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:13,040 Here's the turn. OK, here's the turn. 607 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:16,440 We have fun blaming other people, but it it's it, it may 608 00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:18,800 not be my fault, but it is my responsibility. 609 00:42:22,240 --> 00:42:27,680 It is my responsibility. Come on, just right where you 610 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:33,000 are, maybe just lift your hands up for a second, because even as 611 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:46,360 we talking, I sense the Lord. Dealing with some of us in a in 612 00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:53,160 a unique way see this is one of the messages where you just got 613 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:55,240 to be able to articulate everything that's being said you 614 00:42:55,240 --> 00:42:57,760 got to you got to receive the impartation because he's going 615 00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:01,600 deep into some places that understanding can't even reach 616 00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:08,000 my grandma and them used to sing a song that had these lyrics 617 00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:09,240 you'll. Understand it better. 618 00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:15,840 By and by, it may not be my fault, but but it is my 619 00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:18,000 responsibility. Watch it. 620 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:26,520 The curse was on. Jesus to break Troy the patterns 621 00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:36,000 is on me to shake the curse. We're right. 622 00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:40,880 He broke the curse, but why you still stuck in the patterns? 623 00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:45,240 That's on you. That's why he says I have 624 00:43:45,240 --> 00:43:50,800 deprived the the world of power. He's done every he says all 625 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:54,280 power is given unto me. This is what making disciples is 626 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:59,480 all about to help you take your bloodline back and then watch 627 00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:03,040 this and Peter, after you come back from your faith not 628 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:08,040 failing. Now go help somebody else curse 629 00:44:08,240 --> 00:44:12,480 was on Jesus to break the patterns are on me to break here 630 00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:15,160 it is the family. Remember what it was the family 631 00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:19,680 you were born into the family you are you are creating this 632 00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:24,640 family. You are creating this family and 633 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:30,200 it's the family God intended. What happens when responsibility 634 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:32,360 is ignored? P deal What? 635 00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:36,560 What happens when responsibility is ignored? 636 00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:38,240 Watch this. I want to repeat this. 637 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:47,800 You grew up in houses. You did not design inherited 638 00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:50,280 tempers. You did not choose and watch 639 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:54,040 patterns. You did not create patterns, 640 00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:58,000 multiply and diversify generationally. 641 00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:09,200 The longer they stay in a in a in a bloodline, the harder they 642 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:13,160 become to detect because it changes faces every generation 643 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:21,760 or every several generations. This is why the devil loves 644 00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:23,480 family who sweeps stuff under the rug. 645 00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:29,080 He loves elephants in the rooms. He's just not going to talk 646 00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:29,960 about that. And for what? 647 00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:33,880 We good, we good, we got sweet potato pie, we got we good, we 648 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:35,200 healthy. God is good. 649 00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:37,600 No, no, no, Second Samuel. Here it is now. 650 00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:39,640 We're going now. We're going to dive in now. 651 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:44,920 We're going to dive in now. Therefore the sword will never 652 00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:49,400 depart from your house. David, because you despise me 653 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:54,480 and took the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your own. 654 00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:59,720 God tells David the sword will never depart. 655 00:45:59,720 --> 00:46:02,120 Depart from your house. Somebody say never. 656 00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:05,120 And when God say never, what does that mean? 657 00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:09,240 Never. The sword will never depart from 658 00:46:09,240 --> 00:46:10,320 your house. Watch this. 659 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:14,880 How did David get here? How did you get here? 660 00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:19,600 How did we get here? How did how did I get to this 661 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:34,680 dysfunctional place? Watch this watch this now we now 662 00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:38,480 we about to see we about to go back to chapter 10 and we about 663 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:42,120 to see where the now therefore the sword will never depart from 664 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:45,160 your house. Watch this Chapter 11 in the 665 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:48,920 spring at the time when kings go off to war. 666 00:46:49,240 --> 00:46:54,040 At time in the spring, at the time when kings go off to war. 667 00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:59,040 David sent Joab out with the King's men and the whole 668 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:00,360 Israelite army. Watch this. 669 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:04,800 They destroyed the Amorite and besieged Rabbi. 670 00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:08,360 Watch this. But David remained in Jerusalem. 671 00:47:08,720 --> 00:47:11,680 This is the time where kings go out in war. 672 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:15,680 David decided to stay home and be comfortable. 673 00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:22,480 This is the season Kings go to. This is what Kings do. 674 00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:25,280 This is time. This is the time the Kings do 675 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:27,200 what they do. It's like in the summer. 676 00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:31,640 Baseball has pre season and and and spring training. 677 00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:35,640 This is what they do at this time. 678 00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:40,920 This is what the Kings do. They go out on a King campaign 679 00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:51,720 and they wore David instead of going sent somebody to do what 680 00:47:51,720 --> 00:47:55,360 he was assigned to do. Watch me talk about how we get 681 00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:58,040 here and This is why. This is why the enemy love 682 00:47:58,040 --> 00:48:03,040 people making church community and not about true discipleship 683 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:04,400 and accountability. Watch this. 684 00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:08,600 Because when we're out of alignment and purpose, it 685 00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:15,520 impacts our entire life. It's not this purpose thing. 686 00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:18,760 And he does a good job trying to separate ministry from family. 687 00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:22,520 Well, if you do family well, you do ministry well. 688 00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:28,040 They go hand in hand, just like the enemy trying to separate 689 00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:35,360 state and church. What do you mean David remained 690 00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:36,800 in Jerusalem? Watch this. 691 00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:41,360 He is the king in title, but absent in assignment. 692 00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:46,360 He got the title, he got the position, he got the anointing, 693 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:49,360 he got the church. But the assignment part of it 694 00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:52,120 he's laying down. Watch this. 695 00:48:52,240 --> 00:48:56,600 And before he's ever out of bounds, morally, he is out of 696 00:48:56,600 --> 00:49:03,840 place. Some of us don't connect our 697 00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:07,400 immorality. We don't see the redemption in 698 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:11,400 serving God. You think your assignment is 699 00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:12,760 about your gifts and your talent. 700 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:15,280 Your assignment is a part of your salvation. 701 00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:22,720 You don't know how much serving God saves you. 702 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:27,360 You don't know how much being rooted in a church saves you. 703 00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:32,000 You don't know how much pressing into certain relationships will 704 00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:38,440 change your life before he is out of bounds morally, he is out 705 00:49:38,440 --> 00:49:44,760 of place positionally and RV says, but David remained in 706 00:49:44,760 --> 00:49:46,640 Jerusalem. Watch this Watch this. 707 00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:52,000 This is the following verse. David decides to stay home while 708 00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:57,480 his boys is out at war. Following verse one evening 709 00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:03,640 while David chose the season to be comfortable, David got up 710 00:50:03,640 --> 00:50:08,520 from his bed and walked around on the roof of the palace and 711 00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:14,520 from the roof he saw. Watch this. 712 00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:17,080 If he was in his assignment, he wouldn't have been on the roof. 713 00:50:18,600 --> 00:50:21,240 Watch this if he was on his God assignment, he would have missed 714 00:50:21,240 --> 00:50:27,360 the devil's assignment. You see how being in God's will 715 00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:34,720 saves you from the devil's from the from the roof. 716 00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:38,720 He saw a woman bathing somebody say he saw because you about to 717 00:50:38,720 --> 00:50:42,840 see a pattern. He saw a woman bathing and David 718 00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:48,240 sent say he saw and then say he sent he sent someone to find out 719 00:50:48,240 --> 00:50:51,720 about her. The man said she is Bathsheba, 720 00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:55,680 the daughter of Eliam and the wife of Uriah the Hittite. 721 00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:58,840 Uriah is his is is one of his soldiers. 722 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:05,520 We find that out later in Second Samuel 23, like it's one of the 723 00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:10,720 soldiers. Then David sent messengers to 724 00:51:10,720 --> 00:51:13,720 get her. She came to him because he ain't 725 00:51:13,720 --> 00:51:20,080 got nothing but time on this and everybody out. 726 00:51:20,240 --> 00:51:26,360 Warren, she came to him. Watch this. 727 00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:32,600 He sent, he saw, he slept. You see this pattern in the 728 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:39,880 garden. He saw, she went, she ate. 729 00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:45,720 See when your eyes aren't this why Jesus say get your eyes. 730 00:51:45,720 --> 00:51:47,040 Fixed on me.

She was purifying herself from 733 00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:58,880 her monthly uncleanness. Then she went back. 734 00:51:58,880 --> 00:51:59,880 Y'all know what that is? Right? 735 00:51:59,880 --> 00:52:01,160 OK. Then she went back. 736 00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:04,720 Home, the Bible, talk about it all. 737 00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:07,600 OK. Then she went back home. 738 00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:12,480 OK, watch this When calling is ignored, appetite grows louder. 739 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:16,320 Talk to me, somebody. When calling is ignored, 740 00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:21,960 appetite grows louder. Appetite grows louder when 741 00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:23,560 calling is ignored. Here it is. 742 00:52:23,720 --> 00:52:27,360 Bathsheba was not obligated by covenant to sleep with him. 743 00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:29,840 I just want to deal with some doctrinal stuff because you can 744 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:35,400 be like he watch this. This was a power imbalance and 745 00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:38,040 it's why you can see God dealt with him, not her. 746 00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:44,960 OK, she was not obligated to sleep with him by covenant, but 747 00:52:44,960 --> 00:52:47,680 he did. But but she did know if you say 748 00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:51,200 no to the king, you can get publicly embarrassed. 749 00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:55,920 There's some repercussions. She was vulnerable under power, 750 00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:58,640 moving right along. David did not fall because he 751 00:52:58,640 --> 00:53:00,400 was tempted. He failed because he was 752 00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:03,000 ungoverned. This is back to peace. 753 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:05,040 He did not fall because he was tempted. 754 00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:08,600 Stop blaming temptation. No, your soul is not governed, 755 00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:12,440 right? He had nobody to be accountable 756 00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:16,600 to. He, he he was king. 757 00:53:16,600 --> 00:53:19,520 So he sent somebody and somebody was like, OK, don't you know 758 00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:25,400 that's your boy's wife? OK, since you say so King, he 759 00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:30,000 fell because he was ungoverned. Let's keep going. 760 00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:33,840 Verse 27 after the time of mourning was over, David had her 761 00:53:33,840 --> 00:53:39,520 brought to his house and she became his wife and bore him a 762 00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:43,040 son. But the thing David had done 763 00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:46,440 displeased the Lord, right? This this brother this he didn't 764 00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:49,440 he didn't just he this sin led him to murder. 765 00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:52,120 Although he didn't do it. He set the man up. 766 00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:54,480 He look, look, look. And then now he got it to 767 00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:55,840 herself. Now he marry her. 768 00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:00,600 Now there's his wife. What what? 769 00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:01,760 Watch this. We giving you the story. 770 00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:06,120 But I want you to just see how long stuff stays in bloodlines 771 00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:10,760 and how they diversify. We going somewhere. 772 00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:15,880 But the thing David had done displease the Lord. 773 00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:21,880 OK, if you go read this, God was silent in Chapter 11, but it 774 00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:28,760 doesn't mean he was absent. Watch this silence is not God 775 00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:34,520 approving what you're doing. OK, Understand God, this is very 776 00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:36,120 important. God was displeased. 777 00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:40,120 Now here we go verse 13, chapter 12. 778 00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:43,520 Then David said to Nathan, I have sinned against the Lord. 779 00:54:43,640 --> 00:54:45,960 Nathan replied. The Lord has taken away your 780 00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:48,920 sin. Just remember this, the Lord has 781 00:54:48,920 --> 00:54:56,720 taken away your sin. Somebody say grace now we can go 782 00:54:56,720 --> 00:54:58,200 back. No, no, no, we don't stay right 783 00:54:58,200 --> 00:54:59,840 here. So. 784 00:54:59,840 --> 00:55:02,200 Then we go back to the Scripture we came from verse 10. 785 00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:04,560 The sword will never depart. Wait a minute. 786 00:55:04,560 --> 00:55:07,480 I thought God forgave me. You got to see this. 787 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:11,680 I thought God forgave him. He did. 788 00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:17,240 Verse 13, Verse 10, he said, but the sword will remain in your 789 00:55:17,240 --> 00:55:26,850 house. We think because of grace we 790 00:55:26,850 --> 00:55:29,490 could just act the fool. The Bible tells us do not take 791 00:55:29,490 --> 00:55:34,650 grace in vain. So you are forgiven, but the 792 00:55:34,650 --> 00:55:36,650 sword remains in your house. Let me keep going. 793 00:55:36,650 --> 00:55:37,410 Let me keep. Going watch this? 794 00:55:37,730 --> 00:55:39,850 That's consequence, somebody said consequence. 795 00:55:40,490 --> 00:55:46,080 There's consequence. You saved, but you got fruit the 796 00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:52,600 sword watch this the sword went from cutting Goliath head off to 797 00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:56,960 now being in his house. Now now y'all remember this 798 00:55:56,960 --> 00:56:00,880 scripture Let's go let's let's skip forward to to why David was 799 00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:05,680 even that the lineage of David you see now why Jesus said don't 800 00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:07,920 think I've come to make life cozy. 801 00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:12,120 I've come to cut make a sharp knife sword cut between son 802 00:56:12,120 --> 00:56:15,800 father dark the sword David has to remain in your house, your 803 00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:19,240 bloodline. Jesus said I came to fulfill the 804 00:56:19,240 --> 00:56:21,840 word. So as much as I've given you 805 00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:25,360 grace, the sword is in your house, the fruit from your sin, 806 00:56:25,600 --> 00:56:29,520 the fruit from your action. Watch this you the wages of sin 807 00:56:29,520 --> 00:56:35,320 is death. So you have been freed from that 808 00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:41,440 eternal damnation, but while you're living, do not think that 809 00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:48,160 we don't have an obligation to change behavior, or else I will 810 00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:50,880 have to deal with the fruit of my sin. 811 00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:55,000 And when I'm dealing with the fruit of my sin, that is not God 812 00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:58,960 mad at me, nor is it God removing His grace. 813 00:56:59,280 --> 00:57:04,880 It's just the fruit of my sin. It is not the response of God to 814 00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:09,360 my sin. So don't blame God. 815 00:57:09,360 --> 00:57:11,240 Watch this. And it ain't the fruit of the 816 00:57:11,240 --> 00:57:13,760 devil. It's the fruit of yo sin. 817 00:57:14,680 --> 00:57:16,800 It ain't God, it ain't the devil. 818 00:57:16,960 --> 00:57:19,840 It is some stuff that got your Mama, got your daddy. 819 00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:23,520 Now it's rearing. It's rearing in your life and 820 00:57:23,520 --> 00:57:27,640 now you got to deal with it. And then I apologize to my kids. 821 00:57:27,880 --> 00:57:29,320 This is why I was in this middle. 822 00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:33,440 I'm like, oh, it may not look the same, but I wish I would 823 00:57:33,440 --> 00:57:37,440 have dealt with this earlier because by by default, my kids 824 00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:44,880 saw patterns and thank God our family is doing the work. 825 00:57:45,160 --> 00:57:48,240 But do not think because your kids little, there is not 826 00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:52,280 patterns being imparted. Your kids have your rhythm. 827 00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:54,360 They know when to wake up. They know when the when it's 828 00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:56,200 quiet in the house, there's a rhythm. 829 00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:59,280 They're spiritual beings and they're they're they're beings 830 00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:05,120 of impartation. You see Jesus like man. 831 00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:07,720 I've come to cut. It's going to be funk in the 832 00:58:07,720 --> 00:58:11,200 family. Watch this. 833 00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:16,040 So here it is here it is Elder John hope you all ready watch 834 00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:21,880 this. You see David second Samuel 13. 835 00:58:21,880 --> 00:58:27,520 Now we keep reading Amnon violates tomorrow. 836 00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:31,720 Who is Amnon? This is David's first son. 837 00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:38,640 Is that his first son? Who is Tamar Amna's half sister? 838 00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:41,920 Are we doing halves? David got a bunch of half 839 00:58:41,920 --> 00:58:50,960 siblings, half babies. He and Bathsheba first baby 840 00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:55,080 died. Then there was Solomon, 841 00:58:55,080 --> 00:58:57,280 Solomon's Bathsheba, and David's second baby. 842 00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:01,960 We ain't gonna get to Solomon yet, but Amnon for his first 843 00:59:02,200 --> 00:59:05,160 rapes. His, his, his, his, his, his 844 00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:07,520 sister. Watch it. 845 00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:09,040 Watch. Man, there's so much here. 846 00:59:10,680 --> 00:59:12,840 Watch this. Then Absalom. 847 00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:16,800 That's a whole nother leadership conversation. 848 00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:21,680 Absalom murders Amnon. Watch this because David didn't 849 00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:27,000 deal with it. Oh, and why? 850 00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:29,600 And I hope we got some time to understand why David didn't deal 851 00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:32,640 with because now if we looking at this generational thing, what 852 00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:35,880 happened when David was young that caused him to be so 853 00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:37,240 insecure? Oh, let's go. 854 00:59:37,240 --> 00:59:40,200 He wasn't invited to the anointing rejection. 855 00:59:41,520 --> 00:59:43,040 Minimize looked over. Watch this. 856 00:59:43,160 --> 00:59:45,120 He went down to get his brothers lunch. 857 00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:47,280 They're dealing with this Goliath thing and his brothers 858 00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:51,280 like what you doing here? His siblings minimize him. 859 00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:55,200 So David is dealing with rejection as a young man. 860 00:59:55,520 --> 00:59:58,280 So then we got to look at when they're just bragging on him, 861 00:59:58,280 --> 01:00:01,360 this spirit of flattery is sent to him and it's like, look, it's 862 01:00:01,360 --> 01:00:03,280 all killed this and you killed 10. 863 01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:05,560 Like David the man. What? 864 01:00:05,560 --> 01:00:08,840 How many of us, the orphan spirit, we love to be flattered. 865 01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:13,360 Look at how much better you are. So the enemy's working on his 866 01:00:13,360 --> 01:00:17,120 insecurities, working on his abandonment issues, working on 867 01:00:17,120 --> 01:00:19,920 his rejection. Then his daughter gets raped. 868 01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:24,760 And because he can, he, he's so sensitive and understanding that 869 01:00:24,760 --> 01:00:28,040 this young girl, what it feels like to be minimized and 870 01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:30,240 underappreciated and undervalued. 871 01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:36,080 He's so compassionate. Justice has no place to even 872 01:00:36,080 --> 01:00:38,880 protect his daughter. So watch this. 873 01:00:39,680 --> 01:00:44,320 David's silence brings rage to his son. 874 01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:47,720 And then his son handles the business the father didn't. 875 01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:54,880 Let's sweep it under the rug. You calm down, Absalom. 876 01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:57,160 I know like, like you got to love your brother through it. 877 01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:06,080 When I think about it, my kids where there's times where 878 01:01:06,200 --> 01:01:08,720 there's some stuff you just you, you peace is the route. 879 01:01:08,880 --> 01:01:11,640 And then there's some stuff you got to defend your kids, got to 880 01:01:11,640 --> 01:01:14,880 hear you defend them and take up for them because you don't 881 01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:17,400 realize your silence, what it speaks to them. 882 01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:20,960 And they might not in that moment be like, oh, you, you 883 01:01:20,960 --> 01:01:22,440 didn't say nothing. No, no, no. 884 01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:26,360 Something enemy is keeping record and one day something's 885 01:01:26,360 --> 01:01:27,760 going to come up and the enemy's. 886 01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:29,200 Going to say. Remember your dad didn't even 887 01:01:29,200 --> 01:01:34,400 take up for you.

And there's some, there's some 895 01:02:02,320 --> 01:02:04,040 wisdom sessions. We did a wisdom session in 896 01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:07,880 Toronto and Malachi was sitting right there and the the couple 897 01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:09,840 listen, listen.

Because he has wisdom from just 907 01:02:35,280 --> 01:02:39,680 watching. So tell a couple to get the 908 01:02:39,680 --> 01:02:42,520 perspective from the kid, because one thing they're going 909 01:02:42,520 --> 01:02:47,120 to get from the kid is honesty.

No, this is has to be actually 912 01:02:55,880 --> 01:03:00,560 intentional because watch this. If you are not reforming 913 01:03:00,560 --> 01:03:04,680 patterns, you are establishing the ones that are already there. 914 01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:10,440 This is work. You, you like see that in your 915 01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:13,160 kids. You like, oh, that's why you got 916 01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:15,400 to be careful what you spank them for because they it 917 01:03:15,400 --> 01:03:18,320 confuses them because they're like, wait a minute, I got this 918 01:03:18,560 --> 01:03:25,960 from you. Watch this and then Second 919 01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:31,200 Samuel 15. Absalom rebels. 920 01:03:33,400 --> 01:03:36,880 All of these sons I'm mentioning tried to take David's throne. 921 01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:48,640 One tried to kill him and then Adonijah attempts the throne as 922 01:03:48,640 --> 01:03:55,080 David was getting older. These are all his. 923 01:03:55,200 --> 01:04:00,040 These are all his sons, mind you, and they're half siblings. 924 01:04:05,520 --> 01:04:10,840 Absalom's rebellion can't be blamed on David, and David's sin 925 01:04:10,840 --> 01:04:13,400 can't be blamed on Jesse. Watch this. 926 01:04:17,320 --> 01:04:23,160 But unaddressed dynamics in one generation becomes environment 927 01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:29,240 or culture for the next. Unaddressed stuff, unaddressed, 928 01:04:33,600 --> 01:04:35,080 unaddressed. This is why I tell people, man, 929 01:04:35,320 --> 01:04:37,320 it's cool. You can have that sip you if you 930 01:04:37,320 --> 01:04:41,560 want to guess what your kids doing, they watching that you 931 01:04:41,560 --> 01:04:43,200 might just be having a glass a night. 932 01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:47,600 But guess what that's telling your kids it's OK to drink now, 933 01:04:47,600 --> 01:04:50,480 depending on what the enemy's been sitting there waiting for, 934 01:04:51,920 --> 01:04:56,520 watching your sip. It gives them permission and 935 01:04:56,520 --> 01:04:58,760 then their permission turns into addiction. 936 01:04:59,920 --> 01:05:01,880 This is why you got to deal with that, right? 937 01:05:01,960 --> 01:05:03,680 This is why it wasn't just church and call. 938 01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:04,800 I was like, I can't smoke no more. 939 01:05:04,800 --> 01:05:07,480 I can't do that no more. It ain't just about me, It's 940 01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:09,400 about y'all. It's about my kids. 941 01:05:09,560 --> 01:05:11,440 No, no, no, we can't curse and not no, we can't. 942 01:05:11,560 --> 01:05:13,720 No, no, no, no, they can't. No, no, no, no. 943 01:05:13,720 --> 01:05:16,560 This is not about to be our regular language in the house. 944 01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:20,920 So we got to be. We're battling. 945 01:05:20,920 --> 01:05:24,680 We're trying to cut this stuff out because there's going to be 946 01:05:24,680 --> 01:05:29,680 a day where we not there. You want to talk inheritance? 947 01:05:32,240 --> 01:05:34,480 Thanks mom and dad for the bank account. 948 01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:40,840 But the patterns you left me, I'm going to blow that money. 949 01:05:43,640 --> 01:05:47,760 I'm going to buy sex with that money because of the patterns 950 01:05:47,760 --> 01:05:51,200 you left me. So then you wonder why some kids 951 01:05:51,200 --> 01:05:57,520 will squander an inheritance? David is overlooked. 952 01:05:57,520 --> 01:05:59,360 Then he overlooks tomorrow's justice. 953 01:06:00,520 --> 01:06:03,960 David is overlooked and he overlooks tomorrow's justice. 954 01:06:06,560 --> 01:06:10,120 David is overlooked, and then he overlooked his daughter's 955 01:06:10,120 --> 01:06:13,040 justice. Watch this. 956 01:06:13,360 --> 01:06:21,560 David wasn't taught how to fight for his kids because they didn't 957 01:06:21,560 --> 01:06:24,920 fight for him. He was invited last. 958 01:06:27,000 --> 01:06:31,000 I'm invited to the I'm invited to the party because the prophet 959 01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:35,000 told you it ain't none of them. Dad, you don't think I'm I'm I'm 960 01:06:35,040 --> 01:06:37,680 I can, I can do this. You don't think I'm worthy 961 01:06:37,680 --> 01:06:39,600 enough to be in the line with all my brothers? 962 01:06:42,240 --> 01:06:43,520 And then the brothers believe that. 963 01:06:44,240 --> 01:06:46,320 So then when David show up, they're like what you what you 964 01:06:46,320 --> 01:06:51,560 here for? To save y'all, but because I'm 965 01:06:51,560 --> 01:06:53,360 anointed to deal with the Giants, you're not. 966 01:06:56,400 --> 01:06:58,240 All right, let me hurry. Let me hurry now. 967 01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:01,800 Therefore the sword will never depart from your house. 968 01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:03,640 You got to get this. OK. 969 01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:08,720 David saw and took Solomon. Accumulated and multiplied. 970 01:07:09,040 --> 01:07:12,440 Now we own the Solomon. What was Solomon's issue? 971 01:07:12,440 --> 01:07:13,880 Watch this. We've never heard. 972 01:07:13,880 --> 01:07:18,120 I've never heard this. We often talk about Solomon for 973 01:07:18,120 --> 01:07:23,040 his wealth and wisdom, but we don't talk about the excess. 974 01:07:24,760 --> 01:07:29,840 The women, the wives, the concubines, hundreds watch this 975 01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:32,120 and let's deal with this. We think because it's in the 976 01:07:32,120 --> 01:07:36,880 Bible, God permitted watch this. There is descriptive text and 977 01:07:36,880 --> 01:07:40,520 there is prescriptive text. Descriptive text is I'm just 978 01:07:40,520 --> 01:07:43,600 putting in the Bible describing what actually happened, but I 979 01:07:43,600 --> 01:07:47,480 don't permit that to you. Prescriptive text is you need to 980 01:07:47,480 --> 01:07:51,840 do this in order to get that seek me first in my Kingdom. 981 01:07:51,840 --> 01:07:56,880 That's prescriptive. David having 19 kids, Solomon 982 01:07:56,880 --> 01:08:00,960 having 300 wives or what? 700 wives, 300 concubines? 983 01:08:01,120 --> 01:08:03,960 That is descriptive. That ain't prescriptive. 984 01:08:04,480 --> 01:08:07,200 Watch this. Nowhere you see in the Bible a 985 01:08:07,200 --> 01:08:10,360 man having more than one wife. Anything good happened? 986 01:08:14,880 --> 01:08:16,760 OK, tell, tell me where? What? 987 01:08:17,000 --> 01:08:21,040 OK, Abraham, the boy, his wife said go ahead and sleep with 988 01:08:21,040 --> 01:08:22,359 her. He like, OK, you notice in the 989 01:08:22,359 --> 01:08:24,319 Bible it didn't. He didn't say you sure? 990 01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:28,200 She said go sleep with her. He was like, OK, say less. 991 01:08:31,840 --> 01:08:34,800 Well, watch this. He births Ishmael. 992 01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:37,960 He births Isaac. He births drama and tension in 993 01:08:37,960 --> 01:08:44,000 his house. Watch this watch this. 994 01:08:44,319 --> 01:08:46,279 So watch this. You see David different 995 01:08:46,279 --> 01:08:48,600 expression. Watch this different expression, 996 01:08:48,600 --> 01:08:51,479 David and Solomon, different expressions, same root. 997 01:08:52,720 --> 01:08:55,399 Some of you have a different expression than mom and dad, but 998 01:08:55,399 --> 01:08:59,439 you have same root. So you might not abandon like 999 01:08:59,439 --> 01:09:02,760 mom and dad did. You might not steal like mom and 1000 01:09:02,760 --> 01:09:04,319 dad did. You might not, but it's going to 1001 01:09:04,319 --> 01:09:06,840 manifest in a different way. Watch this. 1002 01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:09,600 Here's the spirit. The spirit don't come to do 1003 01:09:09,600 --> 01:09:12,720 nothing but steal, kill and destroy no matter how it needs 1004 01:09:12,720 --> 01:09:14,640 to happen. He's killing, stealing to 1005 01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:18,279 destroy him. So focusing on if it looks like 1006 01:09:18,279 --> 01:09:20,760 Mamas did is the wrong thing to focus on. 1007 01:09:20,880 --> 01:09:22,600 Is it killing, stealing and destroying him? 1008 01:09:25,080 --> 01:09:27,920 He says unmanaged desire under authority. 1009 01:09:28,880 --> 01:09:32,800 He had unmanaged desire, but he had authority. 1010 01:09:32,960 --> 01:09:37,479 As Solomon grew old, watch it, His wives turned his heart after 1011 01:09:37,479 --> 01:09:42,640 other gods, and his heart was not fully devoted to the Lord 1012 01:09:42,760 --> 01:09:46,240 his God as the heart of David, his father had been. 1013 01:09:46,240 --> 01:09:48,240 It's crazy. David had a heart after God. 1014 01:09:48,439 --> 01:09:50,000 He was the man after God's own heart. 1015 01:09:50,520 --> 01:09:51,960 But he couldn't even finish the temple. 1016 01:09:53,359 --> 01:09:56,440 Watch this. Solomon wasn't even supposed to 1017 01:09:56,440 --> 01:10:02,000 be next in line, but God ordained it because it said the 1018 01:10:02,000 --> 01:10:04,000 man. Because of all this junk, the 1019 01:10:04,000 --> 01:10:06,920 man that builds my temple has to be a man of wisdom and peace. 1020 01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:11,400 And that was Solomon's demeanor. Ain't it crazy how God will 1021 01:10:11,400 --> 01:10:13,720 choose you even if you ain't next? 1022 01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:18,080 He'll choose you because He put a demeanor on you that he needs 1023 01:10:18,080 --> 01:10:23,360 to clean some stuff up and his brothers was jealous and they 1024 01:10:23,360 --> 01:10:24,480 were trying to hurry up and do it. 1025 01:10:24,480 --> 01:10:27,800 So This is why you see the man he's saying, David, you have to 1026 01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:32,320 hurry up. You have to hurry up and put 1027 01:10:32,320 --> 01:10:37,720 Solomon in there because his brothers trying to do trying to 1028 01:10:37,720 --> 01:10:45,000 steal the spot. So then Solomon, but then his 1029 01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:52,960 fall was excess. So David's was David's fracture 1030 01:10:52,960 --> 01:10:56,680 was external conflict. Solomon's fracture was internal 1031 01:10:56,680 --> 01:10:59,600 compromise. The sword in David's house was 1032 01:10:59,600 --> 01:11:04,120 violence. The fracture in Solomon's reign 1033 01:11:04,440 --> 01:11:10,560 was idolatry. You see this, The sword made the 1034 01:11:10,560 --> 01:11:13,000 crack. Then the crack showed up in the 1035 01:11:13,280 --> 01:11:17,280 in the next generation in a different form, but same root. 1036 01:11:17,280 --> 01:11:21,120 Nobody dealt with the root. I don't care if your parents 1037 01:11:21,120 --> 01:11:22,160 ain't alive. Guess what? 1038 01:11:22,320 --> 01:11:25,280 The enemy has a root. I don't care if you don't live 1039 01:11:25,280 --> 01:11:27,520 in the same country, the same city as your family. 1040 01:11:27,760 --> 01:11:30,160 There's a root. You was raised by them, there's 1041 01:11:30,240 --> 01:11:32,520 a root. And then if you got the blessing 1042 01:11:32,520 --> 01:11:35,560 to walk with your family and your parents while they're 1043 01:11:35,560 --> 01:11:38,840 alive, you need to ask questions and do the work. 1044 01:11:38,960 --> 01:11:42,480 This is why family is so important to stay together as 1045 01:11:42,480 --> 01:11:46,400 long as possible. Because here it is 18 get out. 1046 01:11:46,400 --> 01:11:48,360 What do they leave? They get a college degree, but 1047 01:11:48,360 --> 01:11:51,120 guess what? They got the root and they're 1048 01:11:51,120 --> 01:11:53,440 not at home. The parents ain't dealing with 1049 01:11:53,440 --> 01:11:55,360 it. It can't be exposed and 1050 01:11:55,360 --> 01:11:59,240 everybody go, they separate way and it's not an enemy. 1051 01:11:59,400 --> 01:12:03,560 If I can divide them, I can keep the roots in, I can keep the 1052 01:12:03,560 --> 01:12:07,360 fracture in the family and then I can get the grandkids and I 1053 01:12:07,360 --> 01:12:12,320 can get the great grandkids. We see these other more Kingdom 1054 01:12:12,320 --> 01:12:15,600 countries. They stay together as families. 1055 01:12:19,200 --> 01:12:24,200 We call it control. No, no, no, from the beginning. 1056 01:12:27,760 --> 01:12:30,800 Want to talk about control? How much control has the enemy 1057 01:12:30,800 --> 01:12:35,480 had over your life? Unmanaged appetite never dies, 1058 01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:39,440 it only evolves. You can turn that off. 1059 01:12:39,800 --> 01:12:44,320 Unmanaged appetite never dies quietly. 1060 01:12:44,840 --> 01:12:47,960 It evolves. If you do not govern desire, 1061 01:12:47,960 --> 01:12:53,120 desire will govern generations. Some of y'all, you might 1062 01:12:53,120 --> 01:12:55,760 struggle with sexual stuff, you might struggle with drugs, you 1063 01:12:55,800 --> 01:12:58,880 might struggle with greed, you might struggle with 1064 01:12:58,880 --> 01:13:02,040 insecurities, you might struggle with codependency, whatever. 1065 01:13:02,040 --> 01:13:04,880 And sometimes you could be like, wait a minute, watch this, This 1066 01:13:04,880 --> 01:13:08,760 is how crazy it is. You'll be like, she didn't get 1067 01:13:08,760 --> 01:13:10,160 that or he didn't get that from me. 1068 01:13:10,840 --> 01:13:13,440 But then you see the grandmama walk in and you see the kid and 1069 01:13:13,440 --> 01:13:16,800 the grandmama or the grandpa in the same room for a couple weeks 1070 01:13:16,960 --> 01:13:22,640 or a day and you like, Oh my God, they besties you like, Oh 1071 01:13:22,640 --> 01:13:27,600 no, that's great. Let let grandpa be grandpa. 1072 01:13:31,200 --> 01:13:34,760 He called, he anointed you. So when you take your babies and 1073 01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:38,320 grandpa go that way and Lou won't go that way, how you raise 1074 01:13:38,320 --> 01:13:41,360 your child, you got to deal with that because you're like, Oh, 1075 01:13:42,400 --> 01:13:46,520 that's skipped a generation. That's on my kid. 1076 01:13:47,560 --> 01:13:52,680 That's on my grandkids. That that that Greek, whatever 1077 01:13:52,680 --> 01:13:54,960 it may be, you got to you know what it is. 1078 01:13:56,360 --> 01:13:58,520 And then this is how you got to look at what your brother, your 1079 01:13:58,520 --> 01:14:01,280 siblings deal with you. You can pray with them with 1080 01:14:01,320 --> 01:14:03,040 accuracy. There did. 1081 01:14:03,040 --> 01:14:05,760 Your brother and sister is dealing with generational stuff 1082 01:14:05,920 --> 01:14:12,120 and you mad at them. You mad at them, but your daddy 1083 01:14:12,800 --> 01:14:15,240 didn't deal with stuff. How fair is it now? 1084 01:14:15,280 --> 01:14:18,000 Your brother dealing with it or your sister dealing with it and 1085 01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:20,080 you're expecting them to deal with something? 1086 01:14:20,080 --> 01:14:22,160 They don't have a clue of how they got it. 1087 01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:27,280 It ain't they fault, but maybe if you get some revelation, you 1088 01:14:27,280 --> 01:14:29,200 can have a conversation. You can pray for them 1089 01:14:29,240 --> 01:14:32,400 effectively. We're not just praying for 1090 01:14:32,400 --> 01:14:35,520 people to change. No, we're trying to uproot 1091 01:14:35,520 --> 01:14:41,840 stuff. Eventually what you refuse to 1092 01:14:41,840 --> 01:14:48,800 confront God will allow to fracture, and it's even deeper 1093 01:14:48,800 --> 01:14:54,400 when it's disguised in religion. Watch this guys. 1094 01:14:54,400 --> 01:14:58,000 Can I, can I, can I help you? There are certain ways I was 1095 01:14:58,000 --> 01:15:03,120 raised and certain ways I wasn't raised but needed to be raised, 1096 01:15:03,360 --> 01:15:09,720 which impact how I lead. What if people had more grace 1097 01:15:09,720 --> 01:15:12,840 for pastors while God worked the stuff out of them? 1098 01:15:16,880 --> 01:15:20,120 Did I say this message? This message had me on my knees. 1099 01:15:20,120 --> 01:15:24,560 It had me some tears because this ain't just for you. 1100 01:15:24,600 --> 01:15:26,840 This is for me. I will not preach nothing to you 1101 01:15:27,200 --> 01:15:32,120 that wasn't for me. And I'm like, Dang. 1102 01:15:32,720 --> 01:15:35,960 So then you wonder why it takes the wilderness because do you 1103 01:15:35,960 --> 01:15:40,040 know what patterns was created in Egypt and you want to hurry 1104 01:15:40,040 --> 01:15:42,800 up and get to the promise. No, we got to take the long 1105 01:15:42,800 --> 01:15:47,560 route because we got some long stuff to get out of you and you 1106 01:15:47,560 --> 01:15:50,040 so focused on promise and blessing and breakthrough 1107 01:15:50,040 --> 01:15:54,720 verses. Wait a minute, God exposed in me 1108 01:15:55,680 --> 01:16:00,600 what has been hidden from me and have been hidden from my family. 1109 01:16:00,880 --> 01:16:04,440 Watch this, some of our parents and family members never even 1110 01:16:04,440 --> 01:16:08,960 had the language because it was how they was raised depending on 1111 01:16:08,960 --> 01:16:10,720 the culture. Man some of you got 1112 01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:13,000 grandparents, great grandparents fresh out of slavery. 1113 01:16:16,640 --> 01:16:19,680 When you got people fresh out of slave slavery they weren't even 1114 01:16:19,680 --> 01:16:23,640 allowed to read y'all. So not only did they have not 1115 01:16:23,640 --> 01:16:25,880 had a language, but Bibles was kept from folks. 1116 01:16:28,320 --> 01:16:31,000 So then we get in all these relationships with people, these 1117 01:16:31,200 --> 01:16:33,960 biracial relationships and all that and we don't have no 1118 01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:37,240 understanding that when I get married to a person that's not 1119 01:16:37,240 --> 01:16:42,040 of my culture, I'm at a disadvantage because I married 1120 01:16:42,040 --> 01:16:45,800 you to partner with God about your life. 1121 01:16:47,120 --> 01:16:50,480 And then I don't understand your struggle and and your people 1122 01:16:50,480 --> 01:16:53,120 struggle and what you've had to endure with your Mama, your 1123 01:16:53,120 --> 01:16:54,480 grandma. I don't even know your 1124 01:16:54,480 --> 01:16:56,880 grandfather. I don't even know and don't like 1125 01:16:56,880 --> 01:17:00,080 for me, My, my, my, my wife ain't never met my grandfather 1126 01:17:00,360 --> 01:17:02,600 because I barely met him. He died when I was 1. 1127 01:17:03,320 --> 01:17:07,120 So then what about when you don't have information and it 1128 01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:10,480 has to be revealed? How is it revealed? 1129 01:17:10,880 --> 01:17:14,760 Man, pay attention to your. House pay attention to your 1130 01:17:14,760 --> 01:17:17,960 children. Pay attention to what come next 1131 01:17:17,960 --> 01:17:19,320 week, we're going to deal with this stuff. 1132 01:17:19,560 --> 01:17:23,280 We're going to ask some questions that allow us to, to 1133 01:17:23,920 --> 01:17:26,240 maybe I'll give you the questions at the end here, but 1134 01:17:26,240 --> 01:17:30,160 we, we have to actually ask certain questions because here 1135 01:17:30,160 --> 01:17:33,640 it is. How do you re what is the reflex 1136 01:17:33,640 --> 01:17:36,480 when certain things happen? When, when accountability comes? 1137 01:17:36,560 --> 01:17:40,080 How do you reflex on the inside? I don't care if you say yes, 1138 01:17:40,080 --> 01:17:42,480 Sir, yes, ma'am. What's the reflex? 1139 01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:47,640 What do you get offended about? What kind of things do you 1140 01:17:47,640 --> 01:17:50,520 question? What is your process before you 1141 01:17:50,520 --> 01:17:52,720 ever come to a place to surrender or submit? 1142 01:17:53,280 --> 01:17:54,360 What happens? Watch this. 1143 01:17:54,400 --> 01:17:59,760 When you hear the word submit, where'd that come from? 1144 01:18:00,440 --> 01:18:02,280 You don't even know me. You don't even know EJ. 1145 01:18:03,880 --> 01:18:08,840 Can we for one minute stop looking at the people in front 1146 01:18:08,840 --> 01:18:17,440 of us and look back, Look at the long line of pain, watch this 1147 01:18:17,840 --> 01:18:26,960 and the long line of ignorance that we was raised under, the 1148 01:18:26,960 --> 01:18:29,680 long line of abuse. And it was. 1149 01:18:29,680 --> 01:18:31,400 Just, I'm sorry, we sweep it under the rug. 1150 01:18:31,400 --> 01:18:34,240 They, they got help for them, but they didn't get help for the 1151 01:18:34,240 --> 01:18:36,600 gender. So, so who's going to rise up? 1152 01:18:36,600 --> 01:18:39,680 That person got help, but did they deal with it spiritually? 1153 01:18:39,800 --> 01:18:41,600 So who's going to be the abuser next? 1154 01:18:45,200 --> 01:18:47,440 Because some stuff ain't popping off in your bloodline because 1155 01:18:47,440 --> 01:18:54,600 you know too much. But when you die, who's leading 1156 01:18:54,600 --> 01:18:58,320 the family with knowledge? Who did you want to talk about 1157 01:18:58,320 --> 01:19:00,440 leaving behind something for your kids? 1158 01:19:00,600 --> 01:19:04,760 What if you left your kids? Revelation that there's just 1159 01:19:04,760 --> 01:19:07,800 some stuff, Troy, that will never know about our families 1160 01:19:09,280 --> 01:19:12,040 for someone like myself or someone for some of you in here, 1161 01:19:12,240 --> 01:19:16,120 there's some stuff we'll never know about our culture ever. 1162 01:19:19,960 --> 01:19:23,040 There's languages that belong to us that we'll never know. 1163 01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:28,480 But then God put you in this earth at that time that you 1164 01:19:28,480 --> 01:19:33,160 would never know. So how does the revelation of 1165 01:19:33,160 --> 01:19:36,320 how to deal with this? Because I'm parenting based on 1166 01:19:36,320 --> 01:19:42,440 my reference and then we all want to act like we doing such a 1167 01:19:42,440 --> 01:19:44,600 good job. You are doing a good job, but 1168 01:19:44,600 --> 01:19:48,360 you can do a good job and still leave patterns in your because 1169 01:19:48,360 --> 01:19:50,360 the world tells you a good job is provide. 1170 01:20:07,600 --> 01:20:10,600 We see as you go forward. We'll get there next week. 1171 01:20:10,600 --> 01:20:14,760 Man, how Solomon wasn't even able to handle it. 1172 01:20:14,760 --> 01:20:17,160 Watch this and then Solomon's son. 1173 01:20:21,960 --> 01:20:23,360 He's like we're. We're whole of them. 1174 01:20:23,560 --> 01:20:29,440 He's in there. Solomon's son, he couldn't even 1175 01:20:29,440 --> 01:20:31,520 handle it. He had 10, he had 10. 1176 01:20:32,880 --> 01:20:36,240 He lost 10 of them. He lost he he had 12. 1177 01:20:36,240 --> 01:20:42,080 He lost 10, 10 tribes, 10 kings he lost and he had to give them 1178 01:20:42,080 --> 01:20:43,600 over. They had to be split. 1179 01:20:43,600 --> 01:20:46,520 And you see this in chapter first Kings 11. 1180 01:20:47,480 --> 01:20:49,480 This stuff is taken and it's lost. 1181 01:20:49,480 --> 01:20:51,840 Watch this. The kingdoms that one generation 1182 01:20:51,840 --> 01:20:56,560 got were lost at the next. Because it was never dealt with, 1183 01:20:57,320 --> 01:21:02,040 it was just swept under the rug. So let me tell you something 1184 01:21:02,040 --> 01:21:04,160 guys, the choices you make and the work that you do. 1185 01:21:06,800 --> 01:21:10,960 You not going to be living forever and your kids all they 1186 01:21:10,960 --> 01:21:12,320 going to have. I don't care how much money you 1187 01:21:12,320 --> 01:21:14,240 leave them if you don't leave your kids. 1188 01:21:14,240 --> 01:21:18,880 A revelation of God's plan for your bloodline, the strongholds, 1189 01:21:19,440 --> 01:21:23,880 your kids seeing you and your you and your spouse seeing 1190 01:21:23,880 --> 01:21:28,680 change, broken, having conversations, exposing the 1191 01:21:28,680 --> 01:21:34,160 enemy to them. Teaching them how to pray, 1192 01:21:34,680 --> 01:21:43,440 warring for them. It's a war, man. 1193 01:21:44,640 --> 01:21:48,800 We're soldiers. And tonight, man, if you are one 1194 01:21:48,800 --> 01:21:51,600 of the lovers, man, I beg you to come tonight because we're going 1195 01:21:51,600 --> 01:21:54,560 to deal with something that's just about to make some stuff 1196 01:21:54,560 --> 01:21:57,280 clear. If you want to be a leader in 1197 01:21:57,280 --> 01:21:59,680 this, how do you want to serve in any capacity here in the near 1198 01:21:59,680 --> 01:22:01,640 future? Come tonight, 6:00 PM. 1199 01:22:05,240 --> 01:22:12,080 But man, here's one thing that's clear, it's we're a discipleship 1200 01:22:12,080 --> 01:22:15,840 making church, which means accountability. 1201 01:22:16,000 --> 01:22:17,840 And watch this. Don't think we're not the 1202 01:22:17,840 --> 01:22:21,280 cycling because we don't have discipleship groups or certain 1203 01:22:21,280 --> 01:22:24,120 things of that nature right now. We're in the process of some 1204 01:22:24,120 --> 01:22:26,600 things, but God's getting on my butt. 1205 01:22:26,600 --> 01:22:28,720 I can't apologize about certain things. 1206 01:22:28,840 --> 01:22:32,280 We're growing, we're learning. There's no blueprint, There's 1207 01:22:32,280 --> 01:22:35,080 no, there's nobody to say run this play, here's this book. 1208 01:22:35,080 --> 01:22:36,720 Do like this. No, no, no, no. 1209 01:22:36,720 --> 01:22:38,720 We're a discipleship making church watch this. 1210 01:22:38,920 --> 01:22:40,760 And that requires accountability. 1211 01:22:42,240 --> 01:22:45,720 No matter what accountability has been abused by other people. 1212 01:22:45,840 --> 01:22:49,720 We can't again, narratives, reflexes, caution. 1213 01:22:51,800 --> 01:22:54,080 It's just like no. And you're starting to hear, no, 1214 01:22:54,080 --> 01:22:57,560 we need to make disciples because it's it's getting 1215 01:22:57,560 --> 01:23:00,960 dangerous. Here's the the Bible didn't say 1216 01:23:00,960 --> 01:23:02,760 make community. We're going to deal with that 1217 01:23:02,760 --> 01:23:05,200 tonight because community is important. 1218 01:23:05,920 --> 01:23:08,400 Watch this. But community watch this Malia 1219 01:23:08,720 --> 01:23:14,760 community was always a byproduct of unified obedience. 1220 01:23:16,480 --> 01:23:17,760 Watch this. Where's Scripture. 1221 01:23:17,840 --> 01:23:22,120 Jesus says my mother and my brother is those who do my 1222 01:23:22,120 --> 01:23:27,360 father's will. How much of Jesus we take and 1223 01:23:27,360 --> 01:23:30,000 how much we leave off. Show me where discipleship was. 1224 01:23:30,000 --> 01:23:35,960 He said make disciples and out of that forms community. 1225 01:23:35,960 --> 01:23:39,640 Watch this because there is a move happening and watch this 1226 01:23:39,640 --> 01:23:42,280 Jesus saying, man, I'm in here doing my father's business. 1227 01:23:44,920 --> 01:23:50,720 There's a, there's a unified obedience like like, like these 1228 01:23:50,720 --> 01:23:54,360 two, 2, two young couples right here, elder Roseanne, elder man, 1229 01:23:54,440 --> 01:23:57,160 me and my wife been discipling them for for a while. 1230 01:23:58,920 --> 01:24:02,160 And because they have allowed us to they they, they, they're, 1231 01:24:02,560 --> 01:24:06,480 they, they got grown kids and there's things that watch this. 1232 01:24:06,600 --> 01:24:10,200 The beauty of them submitting to me and my wife as their pastors 1233 01:24:11,520 --> 01:24:16,480 allows us to submit to them because they have stuff to give 1234 01:24:16,480 --> 01:24:19,680 us too. There's a great exchange here. 1235 01:24:20,280 --> 01:24:23,280 Watch this. But God is not calling us to 1236 01:24:23,280 --> 01:24:25,200 debunk the order He put in place. 1237 01:24:30,890 --> 01:24:35,770 And we're in a time and place where I don't think discipleship 1238 01:24:35,930 --> 01:24:38,690 is necessarily the priority. I'm not talking about what we 1239 01:24:38,690 --> 01:24:42,650 articulate. I'm talking about look at the 1240 01:24:42,650 --> 01:24:47,720 pattern and where's the dissonance and where's the 1241 01:24:47,720 --> 01:24:49,920 offense and where's these different things coming from 1242 01:24:50,240 --> 01:24:54,480 when it, when you're dealing with discipleship, look at 1243 01:24:54,560 --> 01:25:00,440 Jesus. There's no that you can't have 1244 01:25:00,440 --> 01:25:03,080 spiritual authority and no accountability. 1245 01:25:04,760 --> 01:25:08,760 They go hand in hand and those that you're called to submit to, 1246 01:25:09,080 --> 01:25:12,680 they have to submit too, because at at at, at bare minimum, 1247 01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:14,640 they're giving account to God for how they watched. 1248 01:25:14,640 --> 01:25:20,920 Over your soul. So like my wife said a while 1249 01:25:20,920 --> 01:25:27,480 ago, we we we Chick-fil-A, not Taco Bell. 1250 01:25:27,480 --> 01:25:37,200 And what was she saying in that? Is that you have to be OK that 1251 01:25:37,200 --> 01:25:39,600 you don't offer everybody everything. 1252 01:25:45,240 --> 01:25:47,160 And just be faithful over the ones that want chicken. 1253 01:25:52,880 --> 01:25:57,720 We love you, 2026. We're going to war with those 1254 01:25:57,720 --> 01:26:00,920 that want a war with us. We're going to fight for family. 1255 01:26:00,920 --> 01:26:02,720 We're going to fight for the next generation. 1256 01:26:04,280 --> 01:26:12,880 God's doing some great things, really great things, but he 1257 01:26:12,880 --> 01:26:17,440 wants our families whole. And if you're down with that, 1258 01:26:17,440 --> 01:26:27,680 give God some praise. Come on, we could do better than 1259 01:26:27,680 --> 01:26:29,000 that. Give God some praise. 1260 01:26:39,460 --> 01:26:42,220 Sorry I took a little longer. I, I, that's what happens when I 1261 01:26:42,220 --> 01:26:45,100 leave and go away and then I just get all full and have stuff 1262 01:26:45,100 --> 01:26:48,800 to say. And, and, but I also feel like 1263 01:26:49,400 --> 01:26:54,320 if there's any topic to be urgent about is this family 1264 01:26:54,320 --> 01:27:00,360 because we don't, we don't just want family. 1265 01:27:00,360 --> 01:27:04,440 We want, we want healthy family and we want biblical family and 1266 01:27:04,440 --> 01:27:07,960 we want biblical community and we want, that's what we want. 1267 01:27:10,080 --> 01:27:16,560 My wife and I love you guys and praying for you guys all the 1268 01:27:16,560 --> 01:27:23,360 time and lift your hands.

Speak blessing over your 1271 01:27:33,040 --> 01:27:36,520 marriage. If you are married, I believe 1272 01:27:36,520 --> 01:27:38,040 you can. It doesn't matter what you're 1273 01:27:38,040 --> 01:27:43,080 going through, you can. I think the war is so deep in 1274 01:27:43,080 --> 01:27:46,680 our families because.

You have the key to at least 1281 01:28:08,200 --> 01:28:11,280 unlock next.

It may have ran in my family, 1288 01:28:50,840 --> 01:28:58,200 but when it ran into me, Hallelujah, you didn't ran into 1289 01:28:58,200 --> 01:29:03,560 the wrong. 1 You shouldn't have never let me stay alive. 1290 01:29:03,840 --> 01:29:06,320 You shouldn't have never let me get out that car accident. 1291 01:29:06,600 --> 01:29:08,960 You shouldn't have never let me get out that abusive 1292 01:29:08,960 --> 01:29:11,320 relationship.

Come on, I want to come against 1343 01:32:58,960 --> 01:33:03,800 generational mental illness in the name of Jesus. 1344 01:33:03,800 --> 01:33:06,160 If that's you, you just open your mouth where you are and you 1345 01:33:06,160 --> 01:33:08,920 come against it and you rebuke it and you let you. 1346 01:33:09,000 --> 01:33:12,080 Right now you speak to the root of that mental illness. 1347 01:33:12,840 --> 01:33:15,520 Lord, reveal to us where that door opened. 1348 01:33:15,960 --> 01:33:21,440 If it was abuse, come on. We rebuke that mental illness 1349 01:33:21,440 --> 01:33:23,680 now that came in the door of abuse. 1350 01:33:26,120 --> 01:33:27,280 Yeah. We come against that 1351 01:33:27,280 --> 01:33:30,840 schizophrenia. We come against that bipolar in 1352 01:33:30,840 --> 01:33:34,720 the name of Jesus. We come against manic 1353 01:33:34,720 --> 01:33:36,760 depression. Come on, call it out. 1354 01:33:36,760 --> 01:33:39,360 If you know it's in your bloodline, call it out in the 1355 01:33:39,360 --> 01:33:42,880 name of Jesus. Call it out in the name of 1356 01:33:42,960 --> 01:33:46,080 Jesus. It will not skip a generation. 1357 01:33:46,360 --> 01:33:51,800 It ends now. I am the intercessor for my 1358 01:33:51,800 --> 01:33:56,160 bloodline. Intercede for your bloodline. 1359 01:33:56,520 --> 01:33:58,600 Stand in the gap for your bloodline. 1360 01:34:04,160 --> 01:34:09,280 The spirit of death be broken. The spirit of death be broken. 1361 01:34:10,960 --> 01:34:16,280 The spirit of death be broken. I want to I want to help 1362 01:34:16,280 --> 01:34:19,000 somebody identify something really quickly. 1363 01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:21,240 I want to help somebody identify something really quickly. 1364 01:34:23,840 --> 01:34:26,840 You can identify with a spirit of death in your family in your 1365 01:34:26,840 --> 01:34:28,800 family. I'm not going to have you own it 1366 01:34:28,800 --> 01:34:31,040 just in your family. If you've ever raised your hand, 1367 01:34:31,040 --> 01:34:33,400 if you can identify the spirit of death in your. 1368 01:34:33,400 --> 01:34:35,440 Family. OK, I don't know. 1369 01:34:35,440 --> 01:34:38,840 Who this is going to help, but I do feel the sense in my spirit. 1370 01:34:38,840 --> 01:34:41,440 Of Lord for one of those doors that. 1371 01:34:41,440 --> 01:34:45,360 Brought in the spirit of death was someone in your bloodline 1372 01:34:45,840 --> 01:34:52,320 had multiple abortions. OK, if it was you, let me tell 1373 01:34:52,320 --> 01:34:55,200 you you're free. But but but what I want you to. 1374 01:34:55,320 --> 01:34:57,600 But you could probably trace it back to mom. 1375 01:34:58,560 --> 01:35:03,680 You could probably trace it back to to to to to grandma, auntie 1376 01:35:03,880 --> 01:35:08,000 sisters, watch this, watch this. You could also probably trace it 1377 01:35:08,000 --> 01:35:14,680 back one of you to a story your mom told you that her mom or she 1378 01:35:14,680 --> 01:35:19,440 almost aborted you. I don't know. 1379 01:35:19,440 --> 01:35:22,240 If you're in here, if you've ever heard that test, not even 1380 01:35:22,240 --> 01:35:26,600 testimony, you've heard that from your parents, that they 1381 01:35:26,600 --> 01:35:28,680 almost aborted you. Anybody ever hear that? 1382 01:35:28,680 --> 01:35:33,640 Raise your hand, Yeah. This is you got to shake that 1383 01:35:34,600 --> 01:35:38,240 like even hearing those words, you just you didn't register the 1384 01:35:38,240 --> 01:35:42,640 way you think it did. But that's like, wait a minute, 1385 01:35:42,640 --> 01:35:45,000 you even like that was even an option. 1386 01:35:46,160 --> 01:35:50,960 That was a thought. And so there's certain things 1387 01:35:50,960 --> 01:35:55,360 that you were called to fight for that you don't fight for 1388 01:35:55,360 --> 01:35:57,800 because you're immune to rejection. 1389 01:35:57,800 --> 01:36:00,280 You're immune to that spiritual thing. 1390 01:36:00,280 --> 01:36:02,760 Like David, he was immune to rejection. 1391 01:36:02,760 --> 01:36:05,400 So when his daughter was rejected, he kind of wrote it 1392 01:36:05,400 --> 01:36:08,360 off. Like I understand versus that's 1393 01:36:08,360 --> 01:36:15,960 not supposed to happen. Spirit of death Maybe someone in 1394 01:36:15,960 --> 01:36:18,880 your family you heard of has committed suicide. 1395 01:36:19,720 --> 01:36:22,080 Maybe your mom was suicidal, your dad was suicidal. 1396 01:36:22,080 --> 01:36:23,960 Your sisters, the siblings was suicidal. 1397 01:36:29,120 --> 01:36:31,360 But abortion is not just about babies. 1398 01:36:31,880 --> 01:36:35,640 It's death. It is cutting off the future of 1399 01:36:35,640 --> 01:36:40,280 a bloodline. It is. 1400 01:36:40,360 --> 01:36:41,920 It is. It's not merely we. 1401 01:36:41,920 --> 01:36:44,000 This is not a political topic right now. 1402 01:36:46,680 --> 01:36:49,080 We're talking about different ways the enemy has creeped into 1403 01:36:49,080 --> 01:36:53,240 your bloodline, and we've just written stuff off because we've 1404 01:36:53,240 --> 01:36:58,040 coped, we've modified behavior. But it's OK right now in this 1405 01:36:58,040 --> 01:37:00,200 moment to say, man, that's not my fault, but I'm taking 1406 01:37:00,200 --> 01:37:04,840 responsibility today for you. You got mental illness in your 1407 01:37:04,840 --> 01:37:07,000 bloodline and the only thing some of your family members did 1408 01:37:07,000 --> 01:37:09,880 is take medication. They didn't war against it. 1409 01:37:09,880 --> 01:37:16,360 They just took medication. Some, some diseases run in your 1410 01:37:16,360 --> 01:37:18,680 bloodline and they're like, we're not warned against that. 1411 01:37:18,680 --> 01:37:20,880 We're just going, we're going to get a marijuana card. 1412 01:37:23,880 --> 01:37:26,640 Well, marijuana is not going to take take away the root. 1413 01:37:30,720 --> 01:37:32,800 Alcohol is not going to take away the root. 1414 01:37:32,800 --> 01:37:36,320 We're going to take this next 5 minutes. 1415 01:37:36,320 --> 01:37:50,040 If you got to go, you got to go. Watch this I want you to divide 1416 01:37:50,040 --> 01:37:52,360 your 5 minutes and at least the first two minutes. 1417 01:37:52,360 --> 01:37:56,480 I want you to pray for the people who you say is not my 1418 01:37:56,480 --> 01:38:02,160 fault, it's they fault you got the silent anger about it. 1419 01:38:02,480 --> 01:38:08,280 Why didn't you defend me? Why wasn't you there and watch 1420 01:38:08,280 --> 01:38:09,800 this? They could have probably never 1421 01:38:09,800 --> 01:38:11,400 been there. They probably could never 1422 01:38:11,400 --> 01:38:13,520 physically help you. But there's there's an 1423 01:38:13,520 --> 01:38:16,760 expectation you had for them that you was just like, oh, if 1424 01:38:16,760 --> 01:38:21,280 this happens in my life, they're going to be there and enemies 1425 01:38:21,280 --> 01:38:23,120 like see, they wasn't there for you. 1426 01:38:24,000 --> 01:38:27,840 That is a lie and that is an argument that you need to 1427 01:38:27,840 --> 01:38:30,720 refute. So you're going to take the 1428 01:38:30,720 --> 01:38:34,880 first two minutes and you are going to pray for that person 1429 01:38:35,520 --> 01:38:38,240 that has hurt you, that has raped you, that has harmed you, 1430 01:38:39,160 --> 01:38:42,520 and you're going to let that go because before we can get to yo 1431 01:38:42,520 --> 01:38:46,040 bitter yo your roots, you got to deal with the root of 1432 01:38:46,040 --> 01:38:51,360 bitterness. Why wasn't you there for me? 1433 01:38:52,720 --> 01:38:57,880 Why did you leave my mom? What I'm saying is that ain't my 1434 01:38:57,880 --> 01:38:59,920 fault. Is like, well, if it ain't my 1435 01:38:59,920 --> 01:39:05,640 fault somebody got to pay because I've been suffering with 1436 01:39:05,640 --> 01:39:10,280 this thing. This not having a dad in my life 1437 01:39:10,640 --> 01:39:13,040 has manifested in some ways. I've been good. 1438 01:39:13,040 --> 01:39:15,640 But guess what? Elder John, my Mama was smart to 1439 01:39:15,640 --> 01:39:19,480 put me in sports. She she kept me at the church 1440 01:39:19,480 --> 01:39:22,080 house. So you don't realize what grace 1441 01:39:22,080 --> 01:39:26,160 covered, but patterns still exist. 1442 01:39:26,160 --> 01:39:30,760 Pain still exist. But I remember the day where I 1443 01:39:30,760 --> 01:39:35,360 had to be like, yeah, these insecurities, this codependency 1444 01:39:35,760 --> 01:39:40,760 that I have is I was raised by women. 1445 01:39:42,200 --> 01:39:45,280 My dad wasn't there, and no woman can replace the father. 1446 01:39:45,840 --> 01:39:50,080 Sorry, that kid does not have both parents. 1447 01:39:50,280 --> 01:39:52,200 Something's going to sprout up in their life. 1448 01:39:53,520 --> 01:40:00,280 And if they don't got both parents getting along, this is 1449 01:40:00,280 --> 01:40:02,520 what we come to church for. This is discipleship. 1450 01:40:07,080 --> 01:40:10,800 So some of you got to let some stuff go and you got to repent 1451 01:40:10,800 --> 01:40:14,200 in your heart. Sometime repentance takes the 1452 01:40:14,200 --> 01:40:17,400 route of admitting I'm actually angry. 1453 01:40:19,200 --> 01:40:21,320 You actually did. If you're a young lady, you, you 1454 01:40:21,320 --> 01:40:23,480 actually didn't hug me as much as I wish you hugged me. 1455 01:40:24,760 --> 01:40:26,240 So I look for affection this way. 1456 01:40:26,800 --> 01:40:29,400 Or I mean, my dad didn't wasn't in my life. 1457 01:40:29,400 --> 01:40:32,760 And so I'm dealing with anger and my anger is redirected this 1458 01:40:32,760 --> 01:40:34,560 way. But I'm actually really angry 1459 01:40:34,560 --> 01:40:37,160 that that happened to my dad and I'm really angry that that 1460 01:40:37,160 --> 01:40:40,000 happened to my mom. I'm really angry about the abuse 1461 01:40:40,000 --> 01:40:41,960 that I saw in my house, my household. 1462 01:40:42,560 --> 01:40:45,120 There was a time I wish, and I'm not saying this, but there might 1463 01:40:45,160 --> 01:40:46,920 be you, man. There was a time I saw my mom 1464 01:40:46,920 --> 01:40:52,160 get hit and I wish I could have killed my dad for that one 1465 01:40:52,160 --> 01:40:54,320 moment. The spirit of murder rised up in 1466 01:40:54,320 --> 01:40:57,760 you, that rised up in you. If you've ever felt like I want 1467 01:40:57,760 --> 01:41:07,350 to kill you and what you're about to pray about has already 1468 01:41:07,350 --> 01:41:11,990 been dealt with before you pray the. 1469 01:41:11,990 --> 01:41:13,550 Prophet of the House has something to say 1. 1470 01:41:14,670 --> 01:41:17,790 Other thing I want to, you know, on abortion, it's not just a 1471 01:41:17,790 --> 01:41:18,950 woman's thing. Yeah. 1472 01:41:19,910 --> 01:41:23,350 If you got somebody pregnant and you sit them to get of abortion, 1473 01:41:23,510 --> 01:41:24,950 that's a man's thing. Yes, Sir. 1474 01:41:25,230 --> 01:41:27,350 It goes both sides. Yes, Sir. 1475 01:41:27,840 --> 01:41:30,560 And too often we focus on women and the choice they make. 1476 01:41:31,080 --> 01:41:34,520 We don't focus on the man who permitted, the man who started 1477 01:41:34,520 --> 01:41:38,040 it, the man who authorizes, the man who wanted it. 1478 01:41:38,320 --> 01:41:42,240 Even if they didn't say yes, they were relieved that she did 1479 01:41:42,240 --> 01:41:47,040 it, even though I didn't have a say so in it, that same spirit 1480 01:41:47,040 --> 01:41:49,400 of abortion and death can come on the men as well. 1481 01:41:49,760 --> 01:41:51,880 So let's not forget that component. 1482 01:41:51,880 --> 01:41:55,360 Let's not forget that space and that participation. 1483 01:41:56,040 --> 01:41:58,000 Whether you've paid for it, whether you've driven it, 1484 01:41:58,000 --> 01:42:01,880 whether you've supported it, it still rides on that part of your 1485 01:42:01,880 --> 01:42:07,600 family as well. So if your hands right where you 1486 01:42:07,600 --> 01:42:14,320 are, OK, you can put your hands down. 1487 01:42:14,480 --> 01:42:17,440 There's one other thing too, is this is that the women's who've 1488 01:42:17,440 --> 01:42:20,320 had abortions and you've never told the man. 1489 01:42:21,560 --> 01:42:24,840 So there's a spirit attached to to these guys who don't even 1490 01:42:24,840 --> 01:42:26,560 know. Maybe you never even told me you 1491 01:42:26,560 --> 01:42:28,840 were pregnant because you didn't want to deal. 1492 01:42:30,520 --> 01:42:32,840 And so there's this spirit of death that's entered into 1493 01:42:32,840 --> 01:42:36,880 bloodlines of people that that don't even know exactly where it 1494 01:42:36,880 --> 01:42:39,680 comes from. It doesn't excuse what the men 1495 01:42:39,680 --> 01:42:42,000 did, doesn't excuse whether they left or abandoned. 1496 01:42:42,120 --> 01:42:46,560 It doesn't excuse their irresponsibility, but it is 1497 01:42:46,680 --> 01:42:49,680 opening the door likewise, and that could be some of your 1498 01:42:49,680 --> 01:42:52,600 father's, that could be some of your brothers, some of your 1499 01:42:52,600 --> 01:42:57,560 uncles, some of your cousins that don't know from their class 1500 01:42:57,560 --> 01:42:59,760 as well. So we're going to take care of 1501 01:42:59,800 --> 01:43:04,360 all of that as we pray today. Just lift your hands and be here 1502 01:43:04,360 --> 01:43:05,760 and open your mouth and whatever the. 1503 01:43:05,760 --> 01:43:08,760 Lord I I I. Just dare you to be obedient to 1504 01:43:08,760 --> 01:43:10,560 what He's putting in your spirit to pray. 1505 01:43:12,000 --> 01:43:14,240 Only you know. We're not calling you up. 1506 01:43:14,400 --> 01:43:19,000 Only you know, but I just declare over you, you shall live 1507 01:43:19,000 --> 01:43:22,520 and not die. I speak life over you from this 1508 01:43:22,520 --> 01:43:26,320 day forward and also those that's praying about abortions, 1509 01:43:26,320 --> 01:43:29,680 Don't you dare walk out of here with with any regret or shame. 1510 01:43:29,680 --> 01:43:33,800 Shame is broken as well. Regret is broken as well. 1511 01:43:33,800 --> 01:43:36,120 You are forgiven. You are redeemed in the name of 1512 01:43:36,240 --> 01:43:42,560 Jesus and for the rest of us, if it's if that's not your story, 1513 01:43:42,560 --> 01:43:46,040 there's something there's something that has opened the 1514 01:43:46,040 --> 01:43:52,640 door. Pornography, open the door lying 1515 01:43:52,640 --> 01:43:54,840 open the door. Stealing open the door. 1516 01:43:57,560 --> 01:44:05,280 Self hate, open the door.
