He's not a baby in the manger anymore, not a man on the cross anymore, not a body in the tomb anymore. He's alive. The stone is rode away. My sin is rolled away. The rocks are crying out. He's alive. The stone is rolled away. He’s alive. With the price that Jesus paid. He has changed my very DNA, his light has overlaid. He's alive in me. He's alive in me.

 

Ruth Ann

Father, we just worship you today. We just come and we just worship You. We come here to say, You're the reason we're here. You're the reason we exist. You're the reason that we do. Father, we just exalt you, Lord Jesus, you're magnificent. You're awesome. There's none like you, there's none like there's none greater than you, there's none more powerful than you, and there's none more awesome than you. You're the beginning and you never end. I, thank you Father, thank You Father. I, thank you Father, we are because you are. We breathe because you breathe. We live because you live. We exalt you. Lord Jesus, we worship you, we magnify you.



 

Ruth Ann

Wednesday night, Konnie was using this verse as she was ministering to people at service. And it just really struck me, and I hadn't been able to let it go. It was Deuteronomy 33:26 where it says there's none like you God . Oh Jerusalem, who rides through the heavens to your help. Can you imagine he rides through the heavens to our help? Can you imagine the horse that he rides on? Can you imagine him riding just for you. Nobody else but you. He rides through the heavens. Can you imagine the sound of the horse? Can you just imagine when he comes for you? He says, oh, Jerusalem, he rides through the heavens to your help. Through the skies and His Majesty. The Eternal God is your dwelling place. And you can say that to Philadelphia, Mississippi, the Eternal God. You were created for the Eternal God, just like Jerusalem. Let's put ourselves there. We were created for our city to be the dwelling place of the Eternal God. Can you imagine that? And underneath are the everlasting arms? Well, if we let His everlasting arms hold our city, or our town. Wow and underneath the foundation, underneath holding everything together. It just said, underneath Jerusalem is his everlasting arms holding it all together. So underneath are His everlasting arms. So we say to you, Philadelphia, allow God's everlasting arms to hold you, and he thrust out the enemy before you. And then he says, destroy. He won't let our enemy stand. He destroys them. He tells us, destroy. So Israel, live in safety. So Philadelphia, Mississippi, live in safety. Jacob lived alone in the land of grain and wine whose heavens dropped down to you. Oh, happy are you Israel?. OH, happy are you Philadelphia, Mississippi. Who is like You, a people saved by the Lord. Listen to that Philadelphia, Mississippi. Let your people be saved by the Lord. The shield of your help and the sword of your triumph. Your enemies shall come falling to you and you shall tread upon their backs. Oh, can you imagine Philadelphia being able to tread upon the back of the enemy of all the enemies of all Corruption, of all drug deals, of everything corrupt, because God holds us in His everlasting arms. So Philadelphia let God ride today. Let him come today. Let him come to this land. Let him come in His Majesty as he rides upon his horse to save the city and to bring it under his Everlasting foundation. Hold Philadelphia today Father, hold Philadelphia with your everlasting arms and become the arm of the foundation of this land, ride in your Majesty for each person, for each person that's willing to say, come, come and let your everlasting arms be my foundation. And I'll face my enemy. Some of us need to face our enemies and let God destroy them, because he says destroy as He treads upon them, and we tread with him.

 

Judah Team Sheila

There's none like you, there's none like you, there's none like you, there's none like you. You ride for me, you ride for me. You destroy my enemy. There's none like you. There's none like you. You ride for me from the heavens, you ride, you destroy my enemy, leaning on you and lean on you. You ride for me, just for me. You ride for me. Oh, ride for me. Lord, there's none like you . Oh, there's none like you. You do it all for me, so I join you, Lord as you ride for Me. Oh, you ride for me. You ride for Me. You ride for me, and there's none like you. There's none like You

 

Judah Team Sheila

I hear the words of that old hymn: I'm leaning on the everlasting arms resting, resting in your everlasting arms, they hold me forever. If I will stay there, and I do, I choose you cause there's none like you. There's none like you. Hey, there's none like you.

 

Ruth Ann

So let His everlasting arms hold you, let him wrap around you and agree to stay there, let your foundation, let everything you're built upon, let his arms hold it, put your foundation in him, and then make another step. Be so daring as to put your home in his everlasting arms. And let him drive out what needs to be driven out, if it's hopelessness, if it's a burden, if it's uncertainty, drive it out with him. Then start praying for your town or your city, and ask him to ride, ask him to ride, to hold it in his arms, his everlasting arms, that he'll drive out the enemy. There's so much in that verse, you've got to go to his place with him. But your tribe, but the tribe in him, ask him to come hold the foundation and drive out of the foundation. What needs to come out?


 

Judah Team Sheila

Ride through Philadelphia. Mississippi , hold it in your arms. Hold it in your arms. We dedicate it to you. It's yours, It's your land.

 

Judah Team Sheila

Freedom here, your true freedom, freedom of the mind, freedom here, coming from the land as you ride through it spreads , your freedom, Breaking out from control, your freedom, Your sound of freedom.

 

Konnie

I feel impressed to say that, as Jesus is on the horse, as Jesus is riding through towns and cities and states and ministries, I just feel led to say that Lord Jesus, we ride with you. That we have learned in this place, in this ministry, as we are affiliated with this ministry, we have learned how to put our foot in the stirrup. We have learned how to grab hold of that horn and to pull ourself on that horse, that majestic horse, Lord Jesus, whereby we can ride with you, knowing that you are going before us, knowing that you scatter our enemies in seven different directions that we can mount up, that we can ride with you. That we can ride with you, leading us into victory after victory after victory. So I just say Lord Jesus, we mount up with you today. We ride with you into glory. We ride with you into victory this day.

 

Judah Team Sheila

Victory, freedom, victory. The greatest race we could run is within the greatest race we will overcome. We ride with you, Lord, we ride with you to Victory. It's already won. It’s already won.

 

Ruth Ann

I keep getting the impression that Philadelphia, and I don't know, I don't know what I'm talking about, but Philadelphia is about to make a big decision. I don't know if it's the city election coming up, I don't know, but God is wanting to be in this decision. He's wanting to be right in the middle of it, and he's wanting to do something that's going to surprise everybody, because he wants to rip out another part of the old Foundation, and he wants to bring this place to what he said it would be, what he wrote for this land to be, when he created the grains of dirt that's here, when he took his hand, when he put his voice, when he put his being into this land. He said, My DNA is here. I spoke it into existence, and he said, I want this for this land. And God is wanting to push back some things that's standing in the way, and he's wanting to bring about a victory. He's wanting to bring about a victory for him. It's not necessarily for this or that. It's for him to have control. So Father, we just ask you to come, come to Philadelphia, Mississippi. We surrender this place to you and Father God as an act for everyone. And we just take our hands off of it, and we say, you put it back to what you created to house on this land. You had a vision when you put the dirt here, when you put the water here, when you put the birds here, when you put the animals here, you had a vision of what it would build to be. And Father, we want that vision. We want a city of that vision. We want your city on a hill. Father.

 

Rakha

Oh, there's a lack of lack of unity. Lack of unity. Um. Hmm, in Neshoba County period, the Philadelphia does one thing. Neshoba County does one thing the tribe does none one thing. There's no unity among the governments. And when there's three separate governments right there, similar to the governments the United States. And if the three separate governments can't come together and work in unity here, then how are do we expect it to work in unity at our United States government level.

 

Ruth Ann

Amen. So, Father God, we want your government. We want your kingdom to come your will be done. We need your will here, Father God, your kingdom is your government. The word kingdom means a government force. So Father, we're asking for your kingdom come your will to be done right here in Philadelphia, Mississippi, as it is in heaven. Let it become as it is in heaven. We welcome your kingdom come, Your will be done, your government in our homes. Yes, we gotta start there, Father, we say Your kingdom come, Your will be done as it is in heaven, in our homes, that we can take that out into This land Father.

 

Judah Team Sheila

Your kingdom come, Your will be done, your kingdom come, Your will be done in this land, in this city, in this state, in this nation, your kingdom come, Your will be done. Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as in heaven, we invite you here this day. We do? We invite you here to stay. We do? We invite you in to rule the land.

 

Judah Team Sheila

Hmm, I see, I see the scepter being extended. I don't know what that means. Hmm, hey, inviting us in.

 

Konnie

I don't know I wasn't thinking about horses today, but I'm just hearing that song, 'saddle up your horses, because we've got a trail to blaze'. You know, it's not, yes, the Lord is mighty. Yes, the Lord does mighty things, but it's not just him. We cooperate with him. And so it's like, saddle up your horses. We have a trail to blaze. It's not just the Lord, it's us and our participation in the ride.

 

Judah Team Sheila

We partner with him. Get ready to ride. Are you ready to ride? Are you ready to ride? Mount up your horses. Get ready to ride. Ride with him. He leads the way. We ride with you, Lord. For your kingdom on earth as in heaven, for your kingdom on earth as in heaven, we say Yes, Lord. We say Yes, Lord.

 

Ruth Ann

God brought me back to this. You know, I went looking for a prophetic word in 1994 because my life wasn't what I wanted it to be, and things were happening differently than I wanted it to happen. So I wanted somebody to give me a prophetic word to say just what I wanted. i wanted somebody to tell me, this is what God wants for you, and it's just what you want. Okay, y'all good with me. And I was kind of mad at God, and I was kind of like, God, we gotta do it this way. And I didn't get the word I wanted, because this is the word I got. And I feel like this is what God is saying right now to everyone. The word was Ruth Ann, pick out your horse. You're called to the army of the Lord. And I'm like, God, I don't want to do that. I don't want to do that. I want to cook, and I want to raise kids, and I want to do this. I don't want to ride with you, and I've been across the world many times riding in his army, doing what he tells me to do. Never dreamed I would be seeing the world for him and riding with him, but I gave in that day, and I picked out my horse. I said, God, I'll take a horse, but it's not what I want to do. God, I have lived amazing things. I've seen happen for him, wherever He sends us, we go and we see amazing things happen. I'll share some of the stories when we're all not we're broadcasting now when I'll be glad to share some when we're not broadcasting. But when God wants things changed, he sends his army, you know that, and we've seen much change take place in lots of different places. So God is saying it's a new level of Army Today. See what the we're in a country that's changing, and we're in a battle right now that's amidst us, and the battle right now is which way are we going? And God's gotta win this battle. I'm going to talk about it. So I'm going to prophesy the Preakness. So if you've got off your horse, you got to get back on your horse. You can't come off just because we won an election or two. You can't give it. You can't stop now. Okay, remember one night when God had me in Washington, DC with a group. We took a prayer group many times there, but on this particular night, in this particular place that he sent us to pray. Just before dark, an eagle landed right there in a tree beside us, or in DC. Now, for an eagle to land beside you in DC, I know, and I've got pictures of it. I mean, it's not like I mean this eagle lands in this tree, and we're almost dust dark, and we're praying and we're praying and we're begging the Lord for our nation, and we're praying and we're praying and we're begging the Lord for our nation. And every time that we would pray, this eagle would let out this call, and it was chilling. Then we said, Amen. We all got up at the same time and said, Amen. And it was dark, and the eagle flew. Birds don't fly at night. He flew.

 

Ruth Ann

Something amazing happened after that in our nation. Will you pick out your horse today? Will you get back on the one you got off? And even though you don't want to do the commitment, because it means you have to come to more levels of commitment in him. It's the best life you could ever live, if you'll just do what he asked you to do. There's none like it. You have to let it go. A bunch of stuff. I mean, there's been some things that in misery I liked. I mean, sometimes you just like your own misery. It's really true, but God's made me let go of it. Every time he takes me to a new place and says, You've got to do this for me, but you can't take that part of you in there. You cannot take that part of you anymore to where I'm telling you to go. And that day in 94 I started laying down my dreams, and I picked up his dreams that I didn't know were my dreams. And sometimes I tell Sheila when God tells us to go someplace, I said I had no clue that was on my bucket list, but I guess it is, said that many times we don't have our own bucket list anymore. My bucket list left. So Father God says, Get back on your horse today. Let go of all the misery. He tells you to let go. And every time I've let go of a part of my misery, my life got better. So let it go. Everything that you think is okay, that is really miserable, let it go and get back on your horse. Pick out your new saddle. Get a shiny saddle. Get pretty stirrups. Make sure your bridle is shiny. I've always liked to ride my horse with a pretty bridle, I like to show it off, so get your horse and ride with him.

I heard a voice like a vast multitude, like the sound of cascading water, like the rumbling of loud thunder. I heard a voice like a vast multitude, like the sound of cascading water, like the rumbling of loud thunder, singing Hallelujah, Lord Almighty brains. Hallelujah, glory to his name. Hallelujah, Lord Almighty, reigns hallelujah, glory to his name. Name. I saw heaven opened up and I saw a white horse rider. He was called Faithful and True, Faithful and True. He wore many crowns, and his eyes flashed like fire. Has a secret name that only he knows. Only he knows. His robe was dipped in blood, and His title is called Word of God, and He rides on a white horse with the armies of heaven. So from his mouth, he brings justice to the nations, singing Hallelujah. Lord Almighty reigns. Hallelujah, glory to his name. Hallelujah, Lord Almighty reigns. Hallelujah, Glory to His Name,

 

Judah Team Sheila

Lord we ride with you. When you see the Lord marching across the heavens on his horse, will you ride with him? He's asking us to ride. I will ride. I will rise. I will ride. Will you ride with him? Will you pick your horse and ride you?

 

Judah Team Sheila

I saw heaven opened up and I saw a white horse. I saw Jesus. I saw Jesus. Look up to heaven. You can see him on his white horse. Can you see Jesus? He's riding? Can you see Jesus? He's riding for you, he's riding for me and you. He's riding for the land. He's riding for our cities, our states, our nation. He's riding for us. Will you ride with him? Will you ride with him? We get to ride with him. Mount up. Mount up with him and ride. Can you see Jesus when you see him follow him? Can you see the armies of heaven? Gotta know who is for you. Know who is for him our Yeshua. Are you ready? Will you ride? His eyes are flashing like fire. His robe is dipped in blood, the blood shed for us so we can ride with him. Are you ready to ride? You gotta lay down the baggage, get on the horse, drop it, drop it off and ride. Can you see him? See our Jesus?

 

Ruth Ann

So just make a new level of surrender. That's what God's asking you today. Brand new level of surrender. Brand new place. I don't know why I picked today, but we don't question, right? Just a new, new level of surrender. Just surrendered a new place. Just let him love on you. Let him tell you it's okay to surrender. You know, surrenders like, what's going to happen to me? That's right, like, alright, because when you surrender to a new thing, you're like, Okay, now what's my journey? But you gotta walk a faith journey. In this one. You gotta believe Him that where he's going to see I've been amazed. I've been amazed at the journey, and I still got journeys to make. Okay, y'all good with me, but I've been amazed at the journey. But every time, it's a surrender, and I've been asked to go some places in the world and do some things that I had to surrender at another time and another level. And I remember in one country God sent me into I asked him a question. It was a deep, dark place. It was where I was teaching them how to pray. And we've seen changes in that nation. I'm not going to tell you what nation right now, but they would take me in the building, behind the building, behind the building, to teach them. And I asked God at one point. I said, God, am I going to get out of here? You told me to come here, but am I getting out? And he would always say to me, I'm taking you out. I told you to come I'm taking you out. And finally, I asked him one day, I said, God, I mean alive. And he said, Yes, I'm taking you out of here alive.

102526 Master Key  Ruth Ann: Father God, how to reach down and turn the locks that brings you back into this land, back into each part of the United States, because we're seeing it bigger and bigger than just us. Father God, show us, Father God, which key is going to unlock things, Father God, to bring you, Father, to let your glory flow, Father God, because you said 2027 is ours. It's the year of multiplication. It is the year for your people to multiply. So, Father God, in the name of Jesus, we come and we are ready to unlock that your glory can flow, Father God. That you can flow, Father God, and that you become you become the central focus of everything, Lord Jesus. Sheila: We had a whole lot of keys that I thought we have a master key that opens everything, like all the rooms. Oh, that's good. And we had a whole lot of keys that I thought were just like for the classrooms. Well, it turns out they are all masters. They opened everything in this church, a whole lot of them. Sonja: That's good. Yes, we are the key. Sonja: I want to share this. What I saw with the root system and the web in the demonic, when there is a like she was talking about a straight line of anger, and you know how in a root system I'm thinking about a plant and how it'll put off a root. [Lord, help me explain this. What I'm seeing] Within a on a web, let's do this on in a spider web. They'll start and they'll go this way, and then they'll go this way to attach to something, and then it's all these fibers of that web that that crisscrosses with one another. Okay, when there's a straight line being,[ I'm telling you, God, I see it.] When there's a straight line in that web, then hat happens is it opens the door. That's the open door for the other things, the demonic things, to come off of it that compile, and you have to get to the root system. You have to get to the root. It's the same thing with a good root in our DNA. We may have whatever that blessing is, whatever that call is, whatever that mantle is that takes a root, and then the and then on that one root, other roots sprout that are Godly, and you have to get to the root system to unlock it. Sonja: And as I was sitting out there. I kept getting master key, master key. Rakha you hit it. That is so good. And this morning, coming over here, I saw this. Anyway, I was tearing down a web that had begun, demolishing it. It wasn't. fully formed yet, and the Bible says that no weapon formed against you shall prosper. And I said, Lord, because I saw the the big one over here that's being you know, and then I saw this one over here that was forming, and I started dismantling that that web, and it's but it's the same thing with the root system where there's blessing in our DNA where there's callings. I mean, we are blessed of God, y'all, and everything that God says above all, I want you to prosper even as your soul prospers, and you know, and you know, I was listening to Chuck coming over here, and boy, he was nailing it left and right, talking about your emotions, talking about it was so good. And so I started personally calling my soul into alignment with, the Father, the Son, and Holy Spirit. Where, you know, a lot of times I'll say, "Lord, I call my soul into alignment with my spirit," and the Lord corrected me this morning. He said, "You call your soul in alignment with Me, my Son, and Holy Spirit." Isn't that good, Ruth Ann? Girl, we are the key. We are the master key that unlocks all the the stuff in our life. And Father, I thank you. Ben Stephens: I came across Isaiah 22:22. I will give him the key to the house of David, the highest position in the royal court. When he opens doors, no one will be able to close them. When he closes doors, no one will be able to open them. Ruth Ann: Have the master key, according to that verse, is the highest position. And read it again: it's the highest position in the royal court. Ben: The highest position in the royal court. When he opens doors, no one will be able to close them. When he closes doors, no one will be able to open them. Ruth Ann: That's huge. It's the highest position. So when we're not unlocking things, we're letting our position go. Sheila: Can y'all read that one more time? Read it again. Yeah, loud. Ben : Isaiah 22:22. I will give him the key to the house of David, the highest position in the royal court. When he opens doors, no one will be able to close them. When he closes doors, no one will be able to open them. Ruth Ann: Giving you the key of David, the highest position in the royal court. That's big. So to have the right key and to have the keys is the highest position in the royal court. So Father, where we have missed that. Oh, Father, I just repent. I repent, Father God. I just start for this ministry. Anywhere we've ever missed having the key is the highest position, where we thought something else was the highest position. The key is the highest position. Who holds the key? So, Father, we come, Father God, and we say where we've overlooked holding the key is your highest position in your court. Ruth Ann: And see, when we came back from Israel, we were so particular to bring back the keys to the land. We found it with me today. We found the key in the upper room, and God sent us back with a key from the upper room. Ruth Ann : So God said, "Rattle your keychain. Look how many keys you have." And He said, "Look how many you still had put on your keychain." He said, "Let me put them on there." Judah Team: Rattle your keys, eh?. We have the keys. We have the keys. Oh, We are the key. We are the key to unlock the doors. Open your mouth and let Him feel it more. We are. are the key. We are the key. Let this word flow from your belly out your mouth. We are the key. We are the key. Sonja: You know, I was thinking about how in these old houses there was a key for every door, and they called them. They called them skeleton keys. And I've been sitting, standing, and then we were talking about the keys. I kept hearing skeleton key, skeleton key. Why did they call it a skeleton key? I don't know why. I don't know why they called it a skeleton key because they're skinny, but when I came up here, I heard the Lord say, It's okay that it's called a skeleton key, because in the spirit realm, you don't want all the junk attached to your key, because then you get mixture, and so when you use your key correctly, it builds. It builds, and it becomes the master key. Because you're overcoming obstacles and you're cutting off ungodly things in your bloodline and in your DNA when you use your key correctly. And what I saw was a skeleton key, those old-timey skeleton keys. And every time we quote the word out of our mouth over into the atmosphere, we're building that master key in our own life, in our own DNA, and in our bloodline. I don't know if that makes sense, but that's what I saw. That's what I heard. So we are the key that unlocks the door to whatever has been locked up and bound by the enemy, and even y'all, even we unlock doors that are Godly. That God's not keeping them from us; He's waiting on us to open the door, because Jesus is the door, and the only way you can open that door is to run to Him and use your mouth. So not every door that's locked, and not everything that's locked up, is bad. That's what I'm hearing. It's not. It's not necessarily bad. There's bad, and there's good, and there's evil. Whatever the enemy's withholding from you, and it's been locked up for generations in your bloodline, and things that have been locked up in the that God, things that God has for us in our bloodline that has never been released through our ancestors, through our DNA. Ruth Ann: So a skeleton key got its name actually in 1796. because it was stripped down to the bare essentials, much like the framework of the body. So it it relates to your bare essentials. Your bone structure is your first essential for everything to stand up, and it's used to unlock multiple locks. Which is huge, multiple locks. There's one other thing, but it goes with which Ben's already read Isaiah 22:22. Read of Revelations 3:7. Ben: Revelations 3:7. Write this letter to the angel of the church in Philadelphia. This is the message from the one who is holy and true, the one who has the key of David. What he opens, no one can close, and what he closes, no one can open. Ruth Ann: Our mouth is our key. We have a lock we can lock and unlock. Our mouth is our weapon. We can lock and unlock. In what we lock, no one can open. In what we unlock, no one can close. Sonja: There's some things, y'all. We need to lock up. Access denied. Judah Team: Sound is a key. Our sound is a key. Dance is a key. Our movement is a key. Our alignment. Team Judah : HELP IS ON THE WAY , Judah Team: Jesus always has a way. Jesus always has a key. There's nowhere we can be that He hasn't seen. Jesus always has a way. Yes, He always has a key. There is nowhere that we can be that He hasn't seen, hasn't been. Oh. Help is on the way. Sonja: You know, I think about when Daniel prayed. I believe it was Daniel. Wasn't Daniel? It took 21 days for him to get his prayer answered. Judah Team sang: Help is on the way. Judah Team: When we're coming into these midterms and it seems. Seems like the troubles are starting, but Jesus says they're full term, and He's coming in the middle of them. Help is on the way. Help is on the way. Help is on the way. on the way. Help is on the way. He's on the way. The devil can defeat him. Really, the devil cannot delay, our Jesus, the help is on the way. Keep your eyes on Him. Help is on the way. Help is on the way Judah Team Sonja : Help is on the way. Oh, He's on His way. Help is on the way. See Holy Spirit is our helper. Help is on the way. Oh, help is on the way now. Take your key and open the door. Oh, my goodness! There's so much more. Help us on the way. Gotcha! Ha! Judah Team sang : BUILD A BOAT Ruth Ann: Here we are, and Tuesday happens to be the anniversary of when Noah's flood started. He closed the door. He built a boat. He built a boat when they'd never seen rain. Because God told him, it's amazing. But look, you got to realize it's also the anniversary when God judged the wickedness in the earth. Wow is the anniversary of the judgment of the wicked. So you can always watch God because He remembers those dates. Wow! Just think about that. Yeah, I'm just saying, just saying, it's the time of judgment of the wicked. Sonja: While they were singing that song, I heard the Lord say, "There are those you need to build your boat. You need to build your boat, and you need to lock the door to the enemy. And the Lord says, "I've made a way of an escape for you, and I will cause it to rain." Though the enemy would like to parade around as though he is the victor, the Lord says, "I'm going to rain on his parade with my glory and demolish the works of the enemy in your life and in this nation, and the Lord says, "You build your boat by focusing on me and what I tell you to do." Just as Noah was obedient to what I told him to do, and everybody thought he was nuts. But the Lord says he wasn't nuts; he was being obedient. The Lord says you've got to stop listening to the naysayers. You've got to stop listening to the multiple multiple voices that are speaking to you. That's not me, and build your boat. The Lord says, "For I've made a way of escape for you individually and in this nation, but as long as you listen to the outside voices, your boat won't be built, and when I rain, you will drown." But the Lord says, "I've given.". You the lifeboat of my word, and as you build your foundation on my word, and you build your own boat, I will cause you to rise up in the storm, and you will sail to many places in the spirit, and I will cause you to land On solid land, solid foundation. Who is me. And the Lord says, "What am I telling you to do? What am I telling you? Are you listening to what I'm telling you to do? Build your boat. Take your key, which is your mouth, my word, and lock it where the enemy cannot get in. And there you will find much, much multiplication in your life, in your generations to come, there will be multiplication in America. There will be multiplication in America. Come on, there will be multiplication in America, and the Lord says, "You know, when I told Noah to build the ark, and I told him to gather every animal, two of its kind, both male and female, that was for multiplication purposes." And the Lord says, "The enemy has come and infiltrated this land and in your life that's caused mixture of religion that has literally tried to choke out my ecclesia. But the Lord says, "I have a remnant. I have my people." And the Lord says, "This is a time of judgment. Judge your words wisely. Judge your actions wisely. Judge your motives wisely. Come on, because it's your choice, and when you choose me, and you choose on the right side of what I put in you, there's great multiplication. And when you get to the other side, and you get to the land which I've called you to, and the and you're you're built on the foundation which is me, and it is true. You will find, oh my goodness, much, much blessing and prosperity will come into your hands, and it will form this land With wealth, wealth not just the wealth where it causes money to come into your hands, but wealth within your soul for which you stand. So the Lord says, "Build your boat." Some boats are going to look different than other boats. Some are going to be big and large. Some will be small. But just because your boat is small doesn't mean that blessings for you are left Out, for the Lord says, "I've called many to do my will and to fulfill my plan in America, and there are those that have fallen short, and I'm judging them. For there are those that I have dealt with for generations in their bloodline, and they say, "Lord, not this time." But the Lord says, "I've removed my hand from those, and their demise is on them, but the Lord says, "I have called those that from generations back to rise up and take my hand, and I'm speaking to them today, and they're reaching out to me to what I have to say." And the Lord says they're building their boat that will cause a shift in this nation and in this land. And the Lord says. Don't build your boat in the sand because it's not a firm foundation. He said, "You build your boat on solid ground, and that is me." Hallelujah. Judah Team : You're the map. You're my compass. You help me navigate the currents under me. Take the key. I surrender. You're the map. You're the map. You're my compass. You help me navigate the currents under me, take the key. I surrender. Y'all have a great day. Hallelujah.

101126 Covenant Fire Keywords Covenant, Power, Authority, Altar, Rejection, Destruction, Miracles, Sound, Rhythm, Fire, Consuming fire, Government, Victory, Judgment, Worship Ruth Ann Father God, where we have not made covenant with Your power, where we still on a lower level with Your power, where we forget to bring Your power to every place we are, Father. So Father God, we just say this month, Father God, we have to renew our covenant with your power and authority. So we welcome your power here, Father. We welcome your power-the power to heal, the power to speak to a mountain, and the mountain moves automatically. The power to declare, and our declarations go through the earth and produce what we declare. Yeah, the power, Father God, that we have that we often misplace and we forget the power because we get caught up. So, Father God, we renew today. We ask for your power to flow here, Father God. We ask for your power. Jesus said, "I have all authority now. You go. He didn't say, "I'm going. He says, "You go. I know it's no telling what sometimes when he says, "Oh, let's go, so Father God, we just thank you for your power, your power, your power. What have you got, Rakha? Rakha Friday, I was talking to Maggie, and we were talking about the preparation she was making for the hurricane, and at the time we didn't know, you know, there's an assumption that it could go in between Mobile and where it was specific, but they knew the general area, so she was getting prepared, and it and I told her, so you know, we were praying about it, and she was saying how when she was praying into it, the prayer that she got was bring the bring the wind, and whatever needs to, you know, be gone, you know, it's blown away. Whatever the blood destroys something evil, it destroys it. Blah blah blah blah. But we Did not say stop the hurricane. It wasn't anything like that. It was you know we're on the rain, rain is cleansing, and afterwards I said, well, what I heard was after the rain is gone and the rain and the floods were receded, we need to do what Noah did. the first thing he did when he got off the ark was build and alter. All these places like Selm , all these places ya'll been praying over. Ruth Ann You're right. We're going to the fairgrounds. We got to reestablish an altar at the fairground. What this did, I don't know if y'all know this because I prepared it to talk tonight on prophetic table talk. Is it pushed out the pressure system that's been causing the drought? It's interesting. Wow, wow! Ruth Ann So, Father God, we just start right here, and we just reestablish the altar to you, Father. Here, we just reestablish anywhere that we have doubted you, anywhere we have let our own emotions get on an altar that we built here for you, Father God, we just reestablish the altar here to you. We declare this is your place. This is your place to abode. This is your place to reside. This is your entry point into this region, we open it up to you, and we declare again: this altar, this place, this house is yours to turn the region, or the state, or the nation, however you want to use this altar, Father God. But it's your place where we worship you. It's your place where you can come in and out because you're the only one worshiped here, Lord Jesus, and is your place, Father God, where we establish you. Ruth Ann I'm gonna pray this because it hit me somewhere. Y'all pulled a set of rejections, a set of renunciations for rejection. I wrote years ago. Don't know how y'all. Anyway, I think it was God that got us there. Okay, so I wrote them years ago. Okay, and since we've had other sets that I've written since, okay, but we went back to an older set, and we found out in that set that I wrote, I was breaking the Rejection with agreement with Abaddon. Now y'all know who Abaddon is. He's locked in the Euphrates River until the end of time. It's from Revelations. I was correlating rejection to Abaddon, and I'm like Sheila pointed it out to me. Okay, but you'd already used them. You pointed it out to me, and I'm like, where'd I get this? So yesterday morning, God woke me up at 5o'clock, and He says, "Okay, you're gonna take that deeper. Five a.m. I'm like, God, I came here not to get up at five a.m. I was in Dekalb, and I got up at five a.m. Are y'all good with me, and so I got up and I went back on that set, found my set, and kept going, and realized I got them from Dr. Olakoa in his book on rejection. Okay, and he was equating a person who feels rejected will do things to destroy their opportunities. They will do things, an Abaddon is the ultimate destroyer. So he was saying in his work that a person who takes on rejection will also take on things that are destructive to themselves. That's interesting, is it not? Pretty interesting. I thought it was too, so I understood exactly where I got them. So it's an ultimate destruction. If you feel rejection, you will allow it to come. I think we could even tie that into suicide. I have not done it, but I correlated it yesterday morning. When you get so rejected, you start attracting things that let you be destroyed to yourself. Ruth Ann Okay, so Father, where we have built over this year or whatever since the last time we renewed the altar, anywhere we have brought rejection and felt rejected, anywhere we looked around on Sunday morning instead of looking at the count behind the camera and we looked around and said, "There's not enough people here, and we felt rejected, Father God. Anywhere we put rejection on an altar, Father, we take it off, and we're building a clean altar here today, Father God, where we feel accepted, where we know what our purpose is, where we know what you have us doing, and we don't look at what we see with the eye. We investigate, and we know the whole story and the whole truth. And we investigate, and we look at what we have here. We look at the building. We look at the property. We look at what God is doing here, and we know that is a lot more with us than it's against us, Father God. When we look around and see. So Father God, we tell the spirit of rejection where we have felt rejected by what the eye sees at 1030 on Sunday morning. We take rejection off of this place, off of this house, and off of ourselves. We do not put ourselves into being rejected, and we build you a clean altar here, an altar that says we're accepted, that we're in the work of the Lord, and we are no longer attracting any destruction to us. So we tell any spirit that has come here to destroy anything, you're dismissed from this ministry. You're dismissed from this property. You cannot stay here because the power of God is what we're building this altar to today. His power to come through and fulfill the promises. His power to be established here. And so, Father God, we ask for signs, wonders, and miracles. We say signs, wonders, and miracles. We're asking for the miraculous at this time of the new covenant, we say miraculous this year. We're asking to walk in the miraculous Father, and we build this altar to walk into the miraculous Father. Ruth Ann Who's got anything? Any thoughts? Anybody want to add to that? Because I don't know what this has to do, but this is my thought. Ms. Robin Bullock won a Grammy. Did y'all know that? Yeah, she won a big type award because she's released a new single herself. She won three different awards, and one of them was for the new sound, new, and I thought it was very interesting. It's the sound they're producing. Okay, but it’s one on the secular market. You see what I'm saying? And I was I've been pondering that sound. You know, people have pushed back against Robin, and I mean, like, wait a minute. She's got the Grammy. This is the sound that's being produced from there. It went into the country music. It's a Christian song on the country music. What she won the Christian artist division. That's what she did for the song and something else. She won three. Yeah, it was three. She got three different awards out of it by that one song. But now the world is accepting the sound, the beat, the rhythm that's being produced. She won it because it goes into their sound that they're producing. It's called Horse and Rider, and she's singing directly from the Bible. It's amazing, is it not? So, Father, we just give you the sound, whatever new, wherever you're taking next level, whatever the beat is, whatever the rhythm is, the beat of the flags is being released on the ground, is picking up your sound, your rhythm, Father God. Whatever it is, we will. We're going to plow there. We're going to plow it out of the land and produce it into the atmosphere, Father. So we just give you the sound, the sound. And so, Father God, we renew our altar of sound here to you. We re-covenant the sound to you. We give you a new covenant in this month of chess band, Father God. We re-covenant and build a brand new altar to sound here, and we probably need to do this physically here and at the fairground with something to symbolize the new altar of sound, the new covenant to go to the next level of sound, and so Father, we thank you for what you are producing here. We thank you, Father. We thank you, Father, and we come into your beat and your rhythm, Father. We just thank you for that, Father. We thank you for that, Park. They were almost ready when we left, so they should be ready. They Ruth Ann So, Father, we just give you the sound, whatever new, wherever you're taking next level, whatever the beat is, whatever the rhythm is, the beat of the flags is being released on the ground, is picking up your sound, your rhythm, Father God. Whatever it is, we will. We're going to plow there. We're going to plow it out of the land and produce it into the atmosphere, Father. So we just give you the sound, the sound. And so, Father God, we renew our altar of sound here to you. We re-covenant the sound to you. We give you a new covenant in this month of Cheshvan, Father God. We re-covenant and build a brand-new altar to sound here. We probably need to do this physically here and at the fairground with something to symbolize the new altar of sound, the new covenant to go to the next level of sound. Father, we thank you for what you are producing here. We thank you, Father. We thank you, Father, and we come into your beat and your rhythm, Father. We just thank you for that, Father. We thank you for that. Sheila When Shane and I ,when it was just he and I doing praise and worship, and one of the people that came, I think from CI said, "Y'all are not to be imitators of a sound,. And this this Judah team, this praise and worship, has never been about being imitators of a sound. It's always been about Because people will say, "Well, I hear that song on the radio. It doesn't sound the same when y'all do it. I'm like, "Well, yeah, because it's not on the radio. I mean, you know, it's moving. However, God says move in it, and yeah, just with what you're saying. So, what do you want to do? Rakha So let me just go in ahead, and we're talking about building a new altar for the sound here. I just go ahead and repent because the Lord showed me a time where somebody outside imitated something that we did here, and I said, "Well, we did that first, and what I did was, I glorified what we did. I didn't glorify what the Lord does. So, Heavenly Father, where I said that, where I glorified what we did and put us on the pedestal instead of putting you on the pedestal, for giving us the ability to do what it is that you want us to do, I repent for that in Jesus' name. I ask for your forgiveness, Lord. Please forgive me, and I ask for your mercy. Judah team It's all for Your glory, Lord. It's all for Your glory. It's all for Your glory, Lord. It's all for Your glory. Sheila So we were talking about covenant this morning before we started, and I didn't say anything. But this morning, when I got ready to come to church. One thing I always do is I have my covenant ring, my wedding ring with my husband. And a few years ago, I felt to get a covenant ring for my covenant with Jesus, and it's got Hebrew on it. It says, "I am my beloved. And this morning, when I put it on, I was real intentional. It was like, Lord, I am I'm putting this ring as a symbol of the covenant I have for you. And as we're playing, I keep. I'm not sure that I would say seeing it, but it's like I don't know what it means, but it's like covenant of fire or fire covenant, and I don't even know what that would be, but I keep feeling the fire. I keep feeling the heat, so I'm putting it out there. Yay! And I keep like the only pictures I have my eyeballs on turn this way. We got looking like fire. You have the horses in the fire, and the lion breathing fire, and that one up there looks like fire. I keep seeing the fire in the paintings, like the ones over there by you. Okay, so I can't say I had a vision of it, but I kept. It's like hearing fire covenant or covenant of fire, and I don't even know what that means. Rakha Because I heard crackling. When a fire is is ablaze, and you hear the crackling of the wood, that's what I was hearing. Sonja Well, can I share? We're talking about sound this morning. I saw. Well, when I was sitting over there, the Lord said, "You got to push through, push through. So I just made that adjustment, push through. Then all of a sudden, I was caught up into the third heaven, and a portal was opened up, and I began to see all these colors, and I began to see all these musical notes being released from heaven into the earth, into the earth, releasing a new sound, and I heard the Lord say? This is what I heard Him saying, and I'm like, Lord, okay. The midterms, He says, I'm resetting the sound of the midterms to my sound, and He says, no longer will it be in heaven as the midterms, but it will be full term. And the Lord says, "I'm birthing my sound within the government to full term. Then I was reminded of a dream I had, and I'm not going to go in a lot of detail about it. The Lord just spoke to me about that dream. But in, and I'm going to share this particular part, and it's going to tie in with what the Lord's saying. I feel like. In the dream I was on a dirt road walking with somebody, and these cows, foreign cows, a herd of them, herd of them, not from around here that I've ever seen, had horns, and they were coming at us, and there was a fence, and it was bright, beautiful day, and it was a beautiful meadow. The pasture was beautiful over there, and I jumped over the fence like in a movie, how you jump and then you roll. And I got up, and we were safe, and the cows came to the fence and were looking at me. Well, behind me the fence was down, and some of the cows had begun to come over, but they weren't chasing me. They were eating in the in the field. There was a half-grown cow and a little calf that was coming up by me, trying you know trying to. I don't know what they were doing, but I took my had my sippy cup, my cup that I take my coffee in and was gonna hit them, and I didn't. And I said, "We've got to get out of here. But as I began to walk, there were horses just everywhere, horses everywhere, and there was this one particular horse in front of me that was black and white with little polka dot. I mean, just beautiful horse, and he was just standing there. And I'm standing up here, and the Lord said, "You can ride with the horses, and you can soar and be safe. For I've called each and every one of you to run your race. Get on your horse. Get into the sound. There you will find peace that abounds. And I said, "Lord, what has that got to do with what you're showing me about these notes? He says, "I'm resetting my ecclesia. There will be those that will fall by the wayside, and there'll be those that get on their horses. But the Lord says, 'Know, that I am changing the redirection of the government. He says, "There's no more straddling the fence. You got to get on the other side of victory. You got to get on the other side of the chaos and the sound that the world's putting out. You have to rise above it, and you have to jump over the fence because I'm telling you, I don't know what all what's happening, but I do know what's happening with the Lord. There's a reset of the sound within the government, and He said to me, standing up here, He said, "No more midterm." IT's full term. Because what I am birthing in the land and within the government is going to literally turn 360 degrees. And you have to rise above what's on the other side of the fence. Ruth Ann I'm not trying. I'm not. I do not tag on. That's huge. Okay, but I'm going to teach something just a second because I've been looking up fire since Sheila mentioned fire, and it's going to be exactly actually now y'all have to love me anyway. God reminded me first. A lot of a lot of people understand the wrong use of something, and they don't know what they're doing because the church hadn't taught it. It's not because people are not wanting to know. The church just doesn't teach things, okay? But your two most powerful. Your most powerful covenant is a blood covenant. Your second most powerful covenant is a salt covenant. Now people will go grab salt and they'll put salt around their houses as a protection, but actually salt is a covenant and it's the second most powerful covenant made with God, and that's Numbers 18:19, talks about the salt covenant. Leviticus 2:13 talks about the salt covenant. So actually, what you're doing is you're asking when you covenant with salt, you're asking God to come, and you're asking whatever, like if you're covenant your land, you're asking him to come into your land, but you're asking him to come. Deuteronomy 4:24 is a consuming fire. Y'all understand what I'm saying? When you make covenant, you're asking him to come as a consuming fire. Whether it's a salt covenant or a blood covenant, you're asking him to come as a consuming fire. Ruth Ann And that goes with Deuteronomy 4:24. So the Hebrew word for fire is esh, meaning a flame, a fire, or a burning. It is a covenant. It's referring to a binding agreement, a solemn commitment. And I'll talk more about this when I teach. Because my message is on covenant today. So when I ask him to come as this consuming fire, I'm asking for him. That's just like if I go around my property with salt. I'm really not putting it out, and I'm not. See, people will put it out and make covenant with an entity or something. It's really a covenant with him for him to consume everything on that property, that's not of Him. His fire has to consume it. Ruth Ann Or if I dedicate the elections to Him, I'm asking for His fire to come in and consume everything that's not of Him. Y'all understand what I'm saying? This is covenant. When I make covenant, I'm asking, I'm giving myself up for Him to be a consuming fire. I'm giving everything I put in that covenant. If I covenant anything, y'all understand. I'm asking Him to come be the consuming fire. Now I read a lot about this. This is why I've been so quiet. Okay, I'm asking for His judgment. When I covenant with Him, I'm asking for his fire to judge, and when I covenant with him, I'm making a commitment to do my part that will activate his promises. Do I understand what I'm saying? I'm here. Activate your promises in my life, even though you're going to have to judge and consume to get me there. I'm letting you consume. So, covenant and is I'm letting him be the consuming fire in my life. Whatever I covenant with him, if I give him my property, come consume it with your fire and get everything out of here that's not of you, isn't that amazing? That's where the fire part of the covenant comes. I let him come as the consuming fire, and whatever I'm making covenant with him. Ruth Ann So Father, today as we are in the month of covenant, as we are in the month, Father God, where Noah came off of the ark, and he made a new covenant with you. And so, Father God, we're laying down the framework for a new covenant with you. Just consume everything, consume everything that we have brought into this year that we brought this year. Along with us, that shouldn't be in our covenant with you. Just consume it, Father God, and just become a consuming fire. That we, Father God, come to a new sound, and that sound, Father God, even as we dedicate everything to you, and I've never thought about dedicating midterm election, but it's yours, Father. It's yours, Father. All of this is yours, Father, and we quit trying to do it on our own, Sheila and we rename it full term election Sonja That's what the Lord said. What He called it. You have any questions or comments? Don't don't send no ugly texts. Just ask the Lord. Take it it out with Him. That's what I heard. Judah team Oh, consuming fire, You're my heart's desire, and Lord, we long to worship You. Worship You, You're an all-consuming fire.. Our heart's desire. We worship You, send Your fire. We worship you. We worship you. Worship you. We worship you. And Lord, we desire you. We worship you. We worship you. We worship you. We worship you. Oh, consuming fire, consuming fire our hearts desire. You are desires. We worship you. We worship you. We worship you. We worship you. Our hearts desire, and we worship you. We all are consuming fire. We all. all-consuming fire we worship you. We worship you. You are our heart's desire. You are consuming fire. We welcome Your fire here today, Lord. Burn up what's gotta go. We wanna have a new fire for You now. We welcome your fire here today, burn up what needs to go. We wanna be on fire, be on fire for you. for you! Judah Team Sonja It's burning up the blackmail. It's burning up the blackmail. Sonja And the Lord says it's on My terms, it's not on man's terms. Oh my my my my! And the Lord says I'm burning up the agenda of the wicked one. The Lord says I am burning up the blackmail, and the Lord says it's not on man's terms. It's not on the evil one's terms. But the Lord says it's on my terms. Full term, baby. Full term, baby. Hallelujah! Oh, the Lord says, "Oh, watch what comes forth in the news. Watch what comes forth in the news. Mama, mama, ma. Oh, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma. I'm seeing a wheel with fire. I'm seeing a wheel within a wheel. Fire, fire, fire. Father, I thank you for the fire. It's like a wheel. It's a wheel, and it's got fire, and I saw it. Pretty amazing. I saw it just rolling across the land, and I heard, and I saw it, and I don't know what's going on there, but this was I saw South Dakota, North Dakota, Virginia, Pennsylvania, New York, Washington. Kentucky, Maine, Maine, Maine. Keep seeing Texas, and around the state of Texas, I'm seeing fire outlining the borders. It's going out, going out, going out, going out, going out. Georgia. I don't know what this means, but I'm just gonna say it. But I heard blackout, and I heard California blackout, California. And I don't know what, I'm hearing, I hear the Lord say, "Whatever decisions are being made in California, you need to make them quick. You need to make them." Quick. Sheila Washington State or Washington State? Judah Team Sonja Washington D.C. I saw Washington D.C. Rakha Okay, so the Lord is really pressing this on me about the fire, and if we want this fire, this redemptive fire that's that He wants to bring down, you have to call for it. So for the, and you have to, we need to call for it in our English, in our native tongue. So, if you're English speaking, you say fire. If you are Spanish descent, you say fuego. If you are Choctaw, Speak it out in your native tongue. Call for it. Fire, fire, Say it. Fire. [Blew shofars] Judah team Let your firefall. Let your fire fall. Fireball. Fire fall. Let your fire fall [shofars blown] Let your fire fall Let your fire fall.. Oh, getting hotter, but there's always the fourth man in the fire. 'Cause he's always in the fire, always in the fire. Always in the fire with us. Jesus is always in the fire with us. Jesus Always in the fire with us. Always in the fire. Oh, oh, oh, oh. Burn, baby, burn. And Lord, in Your fire, bring the coal to our lips, bring the coal to our heart. Fire burn, let His fire burn.
