Ruth Ann: So, Father, we just worship you, and we exalt you. Father, we praise you, Mighty God, for you are the Great God. You're the only God. You're the true God. And Father, I just feel to repent for this land, because we've been talking about this land. And so, Father God, I'm a release another arrow at that guard against the gate. And today, Father God, we repent for drawing lines and battle lines here in Neshoba County from one group to the other group to the other group, Father. And so, Father God, we just say this is your land, and we don't determine people's rights, you do. Yep, that's right. So we talked about that Wednesday night, our rights given by God, which is our birth rights, and so Father God, we don't have the right to tell somebody what's their birthright, and so Father, in the name of Jesus, that comes from you, and we honor every human being with their birthright, if they choose to receive it or not receive it, it's their choice. Father, and I thank you for who you are, that you give us all the choice to receive our birthright in the name of Jesus.

 

Ruth Ann: People that weren't there Wednesday night, we discovered something. I even learned, something that I thought I knew, but I didn't know, because inheritance and birthright mean two different things. The Declaration of Independence was not written for an inheritance, it was written on a birthright.

 

Ruth Ann: So, Father, we just worship you, we exalt you, we praise you. You're mighty, you're holy, you're awesome, you're the everlasting, you're the first, you're the last, but there's no end in you, so you can't be the last, but you're everything, Father, you never end, you never stop, and we worship you, and we exalt you, Father. We speak to the north, to the south, to the east, and the west, and we say, release those captives that you're holding, those captive people's people, Father God, that haven't found the depths of you, release them, and we call them to know you, we call them to know who you are, Father, we call them Father God to who you are. We call them Father God to come find the depth of you, Father.

 

Rakha: So after the fair was over I was driving past that area coming back from Dixon and on a couple of the signs on what would be 21 south, but I was headed north, and as I was coming down that hill where the straightaway is to Neshoba County fair on one sign, on the right-hand side, somebody had posted, and they put up, it was just like regular construction paper, and it said heaven or hell. I was like, wow, that's didn't expect to see this, and this is like a day or two after fair ended, and I said, "Okay. I said, "Tomorrow, when I go back, I'm gonna go back that same route, and I'm gonna take a picture, because there was some other kind, something else over on there, but there was like a couple of signs with some colorful paper on it, but, like I said, the only one that I saw said heaven or hell. So the very next day, when I went by again, I had my camera ready, I was gonna stop and take a picture of it, and it wasn't there. But I know what I saw now, whether I saw that in the spirit or whatever, but my take on that was that pertained to the fair, and when you're talking about gates at the Neshoba County Fair, there's two gates that you have to go through. There's always two gates at any of the entrances. The first gate is a physical gate, and then the second gate is going to be somebody standing there, so even if the physical gate is open, you still have to go through a second, a second gate, so I don't know what, where that comes, where that comes into play, but I'm just I'm processing out loud.

 

Ruth Ann: Okay, so I pulled the prophecy back up, and it said ancient gates are opening, ancient gates are open. So Father God, we just come and where, whatever gate that we've, I don't know, I'm processing with you, Father, but there's ancient gates and there's gates, there's physical gates, there's spiritual gates, and Rakha is right. Sometimes, when you go through a physical gate, the next gate you pass is a human gate watching you to say if you can come or if you can go.

 

JT Sheila: Oh. I'm standing at the gate, Ii's opening. The battle was at the gate. Lord, we stand with you. We worship you. We sing your praises forevermore.

 

JT Sheila sang 'Unchained Melody -Oh, my God, my Father, I hunger for your touch alone all the time, and time always works with me in time can do so much, you are still mine, I need your love. I need your love. Father, speed your love to me. Healing rivers flow to the sea, to the sea healing rivers flow to the sea, he healing rivers cry, wait for me, wait for me, healing rivers flow through me. Oh my God, my Father, I hunger for your touch alone all the time and time always works with me, and time can do so much. You are still mine. I need your love. I need your love, Father, you gave your love to me to me.

 

Rakha: So in earlier conversations we have been talking about water and so that song really resonated when you said the healing springs flows to the sea. Water has been highlighted to just about each person here. Some form of water has been highlighted, and even with me, you know, water had been highlighted. They, my grandson went to Geyser Falls, and next thing you know his eyes swell up and he had allergic reaction, so now they're saying that he's he is allergic to the chlorine in the water, which it hadn't affected him the past five years. But in that process of trying to find alternatives for him to enjoy the water, of course, there's the beach, but I've also been looking at different kinds of ways that water is purified, and one of the things is sand, sand is a purification for water. But as we're talking about water, and all these water things are highlighted, and now the gates are being highlighted. What's not to say that we're looking at the gate wrong? Maybe it's not the physical gate, like you're going into a garden, maybe it's a flood gate.

 

Ruth Ann: Looked at the 12 gates of Jerusalem, and then I looked at the 12 gates when Nehemiah restored, or not 12 gates, he had 10 gates when he restored the walls of Jerusalem. You know, he came back and restored. Okay, and one of them is the Fountain Gate, which is the sixth gate he restored near the Pool of Shalom, and we went to the Pool of Shalom when we went to Israel. That's where the angels in the water would stir, and you know the angels would come and heal people in the waters, in the stirring waters. So the water was a gate, it's called the Fountain Gate in Nehemiah 3:15 That's where the Holy Spirit comes, that's where refreshing comes, healing and prophetic flow. So, what we're talking about, the prophecy is revelation, which comes from the prophetic, the prophetic flow. After cleansing comes refreshing, and Jesus said, out of the belly shall flow the rivers of living water. And then the seventh gate he restored is the water gate itself, which is Nehemiah 3:26 And in this one is like it didn't need repair, but it came after the fountain gate. So, the fountain is like a spring to me, the beginning where it springs up, and even the healing, healing springs that we've been talking about across the state starts out as a spring, and it flows into something bigger. And so, the gate is unique, the Watergate, because it needed no repairs that are recorded, but it means the word of God, revelation, and it goes back to what Nigel says. When you get the gate open, revelation will flow, that will bring the miraculous teaching, and truth are at the Watergate. The teaching and truth are at the Watergate, and you know, sometimes I don't have.. well, I realize I don't have the truth about all things, because I don't understand all things, and I can seek truth about what I gain understanding, but then when there's something new, I have to seek a truth about it. Does that make sense? You know, I may not have the truth about it. I may have a feeling or a sense or something in discernment, but I have to seek the truth to match the discernment. I have to seek, hope I'm making sense I can discern, but then I've got to seek the truth. I got to understand it. Because you can't stop it, discernment but you've got to go deeper with, okay, why do I feel this way? Why do I? Why, you know, if I walk in the grocery store, why did I feel yuck? I was talking about last night, I had a feeling, but I hadn't, I had, you know, I'd have to really seek the truth to know what I felt. Am I making sense? So I didn't ask questions, I didn't go beyond just my discernment.

 

Ruth Ann: So, Father God, we just.. and water is a gate, it's a gate. So, if you look at this water is a gate, so it's a gate, so if we have two rivers that started in Neshoba County as springs, they're not rivers, and the Pearl Rivers, two lakes coming together, okay, so they're gate. Gates, they're gates to a bigger thing, they're a gate to something bigger. So, Father God, we just come today to your water gates, to your gates of water for the cleansing and the refreshing. We come to the springs, Father God, but then, Father God, we want to go to the water gate for the revelation, and Father God, what's guarding those gates? What's guarding the flow? What's guarding the wealth of your land? What's guarding the mineral sources that come from the water? Father God, we're in an ancient river bed right over here in Kemper County. We're in the ancient.. and I don't know where the line starts, but it's somewhere between down highway 16. The line starts where it drops into an ancient river bed. The ancient Father God, I feel it all through my head when I say that. So, Father God, we submit to the cleansing of the fountain gate. We submit to the cleansing of the gate, and we let the gate open wide to cleanse us, Father God, that we can step into the revelation and the truth of the Watergate. It's interesting, Watergate is called revelation and truth, because you know Watergate in the United States was not truth, it was a cover-up.

 

Ruth Ann: So, Father, there was truth that was covered up. So Father God, where something at the enemy has guarded the flow of the waters, that the truth and revelation, the healing couldn't come out. Father God, and it's guarded this region. Father, God, so truth and revelation and cleansing could not flow through the state and the churches. Father God, we invite you to the gates with us today. We invite you to go to the water gates with us today. We invite you to the fountain gates with us today, Father, and we just flow and flow and flow with you.

 

JT Sheila: Flow with you, we flow with you, Lord. Keep the waters flowing. We flow with you. Bring the revelation. We flow with you, flow with you, Lord. Don't want to be in the still waters, we want to flow with you. Step in, step in. Flow healing waters flow, revelation waters flow through us.

 

Sheila: So I'm just kind of pondering some things about the water. In the beginning, it says Holy Spirit hovered over the water, so the water was there, and then God created the land to separate the waters, and Adam came from the land. God formed him from the earth, so waters can be dark, but waters can be healing and cleansing. I mean, waters can carry the wrong thing, I guess, is what I'm trying to say. And as I was, when you started talking about Nehemiah, as I was looking over that picture of the looks like the ocean that Amy painted with a treasure box and the key on the corner, there it was almost like I saw the wall like it was water, it was like I saw motion around that picture. I was asking the Lord, so is that, is that good water, is that his water, and even as we're talking about the water, I just keep thinking about the fact that you want the spring, you want a fresh influx, you don't want to still, like when you have a pool, you have to keep putting chlorine in it, even though you have a filter, you have to have something pretty strong to kill what can grow there, but if you have a fresh stream flowing, how that keeps the water fresh, drinkable, even. It's important the source, and I don't know what to do with all that. Even around the throne of God, don't they call it like a sea of glass, like so clear and so beautiful that it looks like glass? I don't know, something like that. I'm not saying the whole part.

 

Rakha: Well, I'm just chewing on the fact that we're talking about the prophecy that was released here in 2012 and that was done by Nigel Bigpond. Well, Ben was talking about his neighbor, that he's, that you know, they should go clean that little spring, and his last name is Bigpond. No relation.

 

JT Sheila: Deep waters flow ,deep calls to deep, revelation flows deep calls to deep.

 

Ruth Ann: So I heard a little bit ago, and I had a reservation. I started just to say it in a prophetic word, and then I said no, I've heard that phrase somewhere, and I looked up where I've heard it. It's biblical, and what I heard was called the fountain of the deep, called the fountain of the deep to open, and yeah, well, let me tell you, where I heard it is Genesis 7:11 and it says, in the 600 year of Noah's life, all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of heaven were open. This was the flood, so the rain came from above, but the fountains of the deep broke open. In the word deep, there is the Hebrew word h e h o m, which means hidden places, the unknown chaos before divine order in the depths of creation.

 

Ruth Ann: My prophecy, what I was hearing is to tell people to start calling. For the fountains of the deep to open, so they can see where they need to do different in business, where they can see different. I didn't know what it meant, but that's the water, that's all this water that God planted under the earth, is subject to God. He knows where it is. He knows what the deep is. That's what it says. God, the deep is subject to God, because He knows where it is. And in Job 38:16 God asked Job, Have you entered into the springs of the sea, he was referring to the underground water. Have you entered it, Job? Do you know what's there? So, what can it talk about? The deep issues of the earth, things that's hidden, hidden strongholds. Do you know what buried wounds you have, Job? Do you know what hidden sins are affecting everything, and do you know what ancient foundations are affecting the land? That's interesting, is it not? Have you entered the springs of the earth? God asked Job, do you know what issues are there? So, Father, we just open up to a level and to go through this gate of the deep we've never been in. Father, just a place in you, Father God. This place, Father God, and I know I've been praying to see as you see and hear as you hear, Lord, but that means we got to enter this place of the deep and let these deep waters come up and flow, let this water come up out of the earth and show us what's really there, yeah. Father God, we just got to let the deep flow around us, and we've got to be able to see it, we got to be able to feel it, we got to be able to this unknown that you asked Job, had he ever gone in this unknown with you, Father God, we could go through a new gate with you into an unknown to understand a new truth. So let the deep flow, Father God, today let your depth of the water flow, let it flow. Father God, we surrender to another depth in you, to another water level in you, Father God, even if it's a small spring that's so hidden deep in the earth, but the truth and the knowledge and the secrets that it carries, Father, and the understanding that it holds of the deep secrets of the land. Just say, Spring up here, spring up, oh wells, and come forth. Spring up, oh wells, spring up, oh land, burst forth with your deep. Let your deep come forth, your deep truth, your deep understanding.

 

Ruth Ann: It, so I'm gonna say the prophecy now. There's a business owner that's watching, and God says, "Call for, oh, spring up, oh deep, all the deep hidden things about the business. It says, "Call for a spring up oh deep. He says, "Because God says, I want to make you prosperous on a brand new level. I want to pay you back for things that were lost and hidden, for things that were lost and stolen, but God says whoever's watching, whoever's this business owner, spring up a deep, because God wants to show you the deep revelation of what you didn't see, of what you didn't know, of what you need to know that will bring you to the new realm of prosperity, the thing that's been hidden deep. So, spring up, oh deep, come out of the deep, come out of the hidden, and come into the light. As I spring up, oh deep, oh deep. Well, come forth.

 

JT Sheila : Spring up, oh deep. Revelation

 

Ruth Ann: Start feel just feel the revelation flowing, and let it flow, let it come, let it come, and don't stop it, don't stop it when it starts telling you the truth, don't cut it off, just let it flow, let it flow, let it flow.

 

Sheila: Revelation flow, revelation flow.

 

Ruth Ann: You see, what the revelation is about is to make you in a better place. It's not to hold you. Is not to condemn you. There's not a condemnation in it. It is a flowing to a place of a better place, is a going to a much richer place, is a going to a place of freedom. It's a going with God in His river of life. So that's a gate, that's a gate you got to go through today, a new gate to a new place in life that's a gate to enter the river of abundant life. So just to surround I just surrender to the Lord, and say, Lord, make me a deep, deep well, a well of life, deep and deep and deep, a well of life.

 

Sheila: I'm reminded of we had somebody come look at our the house that we redid that we call Southern Lights Landing, and there's a basement where water has flown, and it takes a sump pump when we get a lot of rain to get the water out. So we had somebody come look at the foundation, and his comment was, when water finds a way through, you have to be aggressive to change the flow, because if you just kind of try to block it, it's already got a flow going through that way, it's going to find a way around, so if you just put in some concrete up, it's like you really gotta give it another path. And I thought of that as you were saying, going to the deep and the flow of God. And so, Father, in the name of Jesus, I just pray everywhere there has been a wrong flow. Anyway, Father, there's a familiar thing from our generations, Father, that needs to change. Father, we put the blood of Jesus, we put the blood of Jesus through the wrong, any wrong ways that that's flowing, and we ask you, Father, your water, the water of Holy Spirit, to flow through us exactly as it needs to, whatever that path is, Father, if you choose to open your gates to what he wants to do, just speak. Father, we open our gates to you in ourselves, in our properties. In our lives name of Jesus.

 

Rakha: So I keep going back to your dream and the demonic whatever it was that was in your dream, because you said you saw intercessors hanging off the ears, trying to, you know, wrestle whatever this thing was, and you didn't know if it was Leviathan or what it was, but I remember a teaching that you gave a couple weeks ago, it was Wednesday night about the spies entering the Promised Land, and when they came back and they did the report, man, they were giants and the people got scared. Well, the Lord, being the Lord, He can do anything. So, instead of the people looking at it as a positivity, they looked at it as a threat that they could not slay the giant, when in fact the Lord had placed the giants there to help the people. So Heavenly Father, whatever this being is that is standing at the gates, we just need the revelation to know whether we slay this dragon or whether we tame the dragon. What is it, heavenly Father? Which way is it that we need to go? We need to, please, you know, just identify what it is, show us what it is, show us what we have to do to slay the dragon or to tame the dragon.

 

Ruth Ann: I could just, it is probably the most important thing that could have been done, because when somebody releases revelation, like I had a dream, okay, and I release the revelation from my dream, or somebody releases a prophetic word. Okay, because the prophetic word, or the dream, could show a warning. A dream can show a warning. A lot of you are dreamers. Okay, so you don't put your dream down. Some of you are dreamers in here. I'm talking to several of you. Okay, and you don't let your dream go. That's a gift God has given you. Sometimes they come as warnings, and sometimes God is showing you what you got to go around in a dream, or what's the, you know, your problem, or sometimes He's showing you what He wants to happen, but your next question is, as well, let me go back. Somebody never looked this one up, where Paul said to Timothy, "War with your prophecy. See, that's the step we forget. So, what Rakha just asked, what do we do, God, with it? It's not a fear thing, because God is almighty. God mean the word almighty in the original Hebrew means he's all powerful, there's not anything that can defeat him. So, if he shows it to you, it's yours, it's yours, it's yours to defeat, it's yours to overcome, it's yours to take out of your way. Do you see what I'm saying? So you ask the question, what do we do? You get, you see what I'm saying. He showed us what's going on in the dream. You see what I'm saying. The question always is not that I had a dream and I'm carrying it around to see what happened, not that God gave a promise. He did. I got the promise. I got the promise. You see what I'm saying, but he did give a promise, but my question is, what's my step to the promise? Well, you asked the right question. How do we defeat it, or do we tame it down, or what do we do with it? Okay, and that's the question you put before the Lord. So many times you just need to take your dream or your vision and write, okay? Because sometimes in writing you get to see what God says. If you don't write, record it, you got all these things today that will type what you say, but still, when you start putting it before the Lord, and you start, because He says if you dig a thing that's digging, when you start that, you see what I'm saying, it's God's pleasure, and we got to find that scripture,, but we should take pleasure in searching it out, and that's what he wants us to do. So, read the scripture.

 

Deborah: I'm going to read it from the CSB. Timothy, my son, I'm giving you this instruction in keeping with the prophecies previously made about you, so that by recalling them, you might fight the good fight.

 

Ruth Ann: So you put it up. So basically, if I take the prophecies, if I take what the dreams say, if I take the prophecies, and I'm going to fight with what yet. If God is showing me something in my way, then I'm going to move it out of my way. Is that making sense, but now in a dream he could show it in the form of a dog or a bear, and I love dogs, so I don't have anything bad about dogs, but he could show you something bad. Is that making sense in a dream? It could be, it could have a bad representation to you, like a dog could be some dog that bit you in the past. You get what I'm saying. So, what you do, you start asking God questions. Okay, but I always stay in the Bible. I always go back. So, if I'm dreaming about a dog, you know the first thing I'm going to do, I'm going to say what scriptures in the Bible talk about dogs, because God's always going to stay in that Bible. Now, I had a lady to send me a dream one time that lived in a foreign country, and I tried to interpret that thing, and interpret that thing, and interpret that thing, and I just couldn't get it until finally I got one. Finally, I went and ask God, have you ever done that? Y'all hear what I'm saying. When I couldn't get the meaning, I finally said, God, what am I doing wrong? He said, look at it from the country that she lives in, because I'm going to speak to her and what she understands. Y'all get what I'm saying, so I had to finally start looking up the elements of her dream, according to how her country viewed those things. Okay, and one of the things she had in that dream was a cat, and they thought cats were awful in that country, and I think they're good. So you understand, I was having a hard problem. Okay? Do you get one? Because I'm like this kitty cat. This kitty cat can't be bad. It's kitty cat, a baby cat. Y'all good with me? But they look at it as in that country with something not good. Is everybody get what I'm saying? In a disease, an animal that carries disease, and I'm like, I get it. You get what I'm saying. I get it now. But I had to look at it from how she would understand it. Is everybody, is that making sense? So, God is going to speak to you like you understand things. So, if you had a bad experience with a dog, you could dream about that. It could be talking about something present, but He would probably go back and speak to you with something of the past, like that. Do you see what I'm saying? Or, if you had a good experience with something, don't have to be a bad experience. He would probably speak good with something you had a good experience with. Is that making sense? But he's going to speak to you in how you understand things. I take what God is trying to show me, because He's going to talk to each one of us, and dreaming is a gift. It's a gift, and it's a gift that you need to honor. When you honor it, God will speak to you more. You'll have more dreams. How do I honor it? I do. Something to acknowledge it, if it's write it down, if it's recorded, if it's talked to God about it, if it's look, look up in the Bible and see what the Bible says about different things in my dream, is that making sense? And that's how I honor my, my word from the Lord. And then I see what I need to change.

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.

I thank you, Father, that you are the great I am, and Father, every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that you are Lord. And Father, I thank you for the fire that blows from Judah's mouth, Father, literally burning up the pathway of the enemy. Father, I thank you that the fire of God consumes the enemy and refines us, Father, that our light may shine brighter in darkness. Father, I thank you for the release, a release, a release, in Jesus' name, Judah Team Sonja You are the lion of the tribe of Judah, and fire comes from your mouth, holy fire. You are the lion of the tribe of Judah. The gates are open wide. Won't you step inside? The gates are open wide. Step on inside. Oh, thank you, Jesus. Step in, step in, step in, step in. Arise, arise, arise. Step in, step in, step in. The gates are open wide. The gates are open wide. Come on inside, inside, inside. Ruth Ann So I hear the Lord say, "Walk up and face your gate. Walk up. He's going to walk with you, and he's going to start kicking it down with you. He says, "Walk up and face it. Whatever you're facing, he says, walk up. Don't walk away from it. Don't walk away from it. I remember, and God just brought this to my mind when I taught the book of Absalom. When I book, I wrote a workbook on Absalom, and I went through and I taught every one of David's mistakes he made with Absalom. Every mistake I pointed it out, and then I came back and pointed out how he overcame the mistake. Now, in Second Samuel, you start with chapter 15, and you keep going all the way down to verses 31. Okay, so what happens here is that, news comes to David that the people's hearts have turned against David, and they've gone to Absalom. And not only that, so his adviser-I can't pronounce his advisor's name, but his adviser also started advising Absalom. And what does David do? He packs up his family and runs. He said, "We're leaving the temple. We're going. This is a huge mistake of David. Huge mistake. He said, "You know, verse 14. He says, 'Arise and let us flee.'" For we shall not escape from Absalom. Listen to his mouth, man after God's own heart. Listen to his mouth. He just said he can't escape from his own son. Wow, then he crosses the Kidron Brook, and they even say, "David, come take the ark with us. And David said, "I'm not taking the ark. He left the ark in the castle. He left the ark. He left the ark of God. I'd have taken that ark, folks. He said, "God come with us, but He left it there. And what did He do? You get to verse 30, and David went up by the Mount of Olives and wept, and he had his head covered, and he went barefoot. And go to verse 31, and one told David, saying, "Your advisers among the conspirators. And then David said, "Okay, I can't take it any longer. When he found that out, and he prayed, he turned around and he started praying. Where he'd been running, where he'd been weeping, where he'd been saying, "Oh, Absalom's going to overtake me. He put the words out there. He said in Scripture, Absalom was going to overtake him, and then he turns around and says, "God, I can't take my counselor counseling Absalom. Let him give foolish advice. He got angry enough. He prayed a prayer, and God answered it. And the counselor gave Absalom foolish advice, and Absalom became defeated after that. Just one simple prayer. One simple prayer. I'm going back. God, let them have foolish advice. Wow, wow! That turned the whole thing, and David loads up and goes back and takes his place. So, Father, we come and we look at our gate. We look at our gate, whatever our gate is, whatever the gate of hell has got there for us, we look at it, and you're here, and you're here with us. I've heard you walking in this room this morning. I heard you walking through here. It was your footsteps, Lord Jesus, and you said, "Look at that gate, and I'll start kicking it down with you. David got mad enough when he heard his counsel betrayed him. He quit being sorry for himself, and he prayed one prayer that turned the whole battle at the gates.{ Sonja blew the SHOFAR] Judah Team Sheila Coming for you, coming for you. Nothing can stop us. God is on our side. No more running, no backing up. Storming the gates. Storm in the gates, storming the gates of the enemy. Judah Team Sonja Storm in the gates of the enemy, watch out, devil, or you're about to see the churches are rising, taking their stand, walking through the gates, taking the land. Ruth Ann So I remember years ago we built a gate right here. We needed 100 something thousand, didn't have it. We stood right here and we took on Leviathan and all the witchcraft and everything that comes with Leviathan. We stood right here and we pulled it down and we faced it and we took that battering ram and we went through that gate. Next day, next day, not a year. Next day, money came through. Next day, we had no hope, but we had hope when we faced the gate, and we took that gate out. But we faced everything that was in front of that gate. We faced it. We called it out. We faced it, and we took it out, and it came down. We did it so good. Darrell told us to go back and do it a second time, and we did, and we own a piece of property totally paid for. We went after Satan. We did not let him keep us. We went after him that day. Let me say it again. I said we went after Satan. We went after him. That's what storming the gate is. We went after him. We faced every guard he put at the gate. You always face a Leviathan when you're going through a gate always, and we took out Leviathan and went over the gate. Sonja Well, you know that's interesting because when I came up here and we started praising and you know and everything, I saw a gate. I saw the gate, and at the bottom of the gate across the threshold was a snake. Wow! I saw it. Wow! And I was like, "Lord, why am I seeing a snake? And now you just explained it. Judah Team Sheila Wow. So is it still there? Sonja Yeah, I saw it. I mean, I saw it. I didn't, you know. I was like, okay. At first, what came to me is I need that sword back there to do a prophetic act that's hanging on the wall. Yeah, I saw that sword and doing a prophetic act and cutting that head off and removing the snake and stepping over the threshold into the gate, into it. Rakha So when you were talking about. fleeing from fleeing from the gate, so yesterday somebody asked me. They said, "Well, if you are a Mississippi Choctaw, how did your people survive? And I said, "We fled. We fled into the swamps. And for a minute there, I felt shame, and I was like, "No, no, no, no, no! Hold on, hold on. That's the enemy talking. Why does the enemy want me to feel shame, shameful for my ancestors retreating into the swamp? Because the swamp was their survival. That's how we survived. But what I saw later on was, because of that retreat, it was still in the land. The retreating of the people, the stepping back, stepping away. We weren't at the gate. We weren't protecting the gate. We were we were stepped back away from the gate. So heavenly Father, where my ancestors retreated, where we stepped away from the gate that you had established us to steward here, we come out of that, Heavenly Father. We repent for that, and Heavenly Father, we remove this out of the land. We remove it out of the atmosphere. And Heavenly Father, we remove it out of the DNA. We remove it out of the RNA. Whatever else a A is out there that needs to be removed from, we remove it out. And Heavenly Father, we stand. And whatever loss there may have been. Whatever loss you may have that is preventing you from charging into for storming your gate, it's time for you to. If you're crying over, if you're remorseful over that loss, you need to use that energy. Use those tears. Use that energy that you have to storm the gate. Storm the gate with your tears, and drop that loss. It's time to remove that loss. And when you storm that gate, he will dry your tears. When you storm that gate, the treasure is on the other side. Sonja Okay, I'm gonna do something with this sword because I saw it, and I'm gonna take it personal for me and my family, and all the families out there that are going through things, because when you attack my family, whoa, devil, you better watch out. And it's like that with any child of God, with people being under attack with different things. So this gate is not just for me. I don't. I won't believe. I believe it's for many of us. So, Father, right now, in the name of Jesus, I stand at the gate with the sword, doing a prophetic act to cut the head off of this serpent that has attacked my family and my heritage, my inheritance. So, right now, in Jesus' name, I cut it off, and I pick the snake up, and I throw it into the fire of Holy Spirit. Father, we step over the threshold into Your glory, into Your treasures, into Your blessings. Father, in the spirit realm, and I thank you, Father God, for the ecclesia and for all those that have been suffering, Father, that have been under attack through their whatever attacks there are, and Father, I thank you that we step into glory, we step into your presence, we step in to what you have for now, Father, for what you want to do, that your plans and your purposes would be accomplished here on earth as it is in heaven, for the ecclesia, Father. Father, I speak to each and every child of God, Father, with the sound of my voice that's here and those that will listen and those that it will go into the spirit realm, Father, that it would go across this nation, Father, that they would rise up and take their position, and take their gates, take your gate in Jesus' name. Take your gate and go over the threshold, and whatever's stopping you, you stop it, and Father, I thank you that just as David faced Goliath, he didn't run. He didn't have that armor on. He took it off because it was too big for him. It didn't fit right. It wasn't his armor. Father, you've equipped us with our own armor with your word, and Father God, I thank you that we don't run from the battle; we face the giants. Father, we stand strong and we step over the threshold for this nation, for this land, for this region, for this county, for this city, Father, for our families. Father, I thank you right now for the blood of Jesus, Lord, and we set a boundary around us and around this place, around this ministry with the blood of Jesus that the enemy cannot cross. And Father, I decree blessings, Father. Even though, let me tell you something: we take back, we take back this season where the enemy has perverted it for witchcraft. In the name of Jesus, we take it back for God. In the name of Jesus, and Lord, we're not ,I'm not gonna just expect this to happen and expect that to happen because of the way it's always been in the past in the month of October, but Father, we're I'm gonna look at you and what you are doing, and not what the enemy's doing. And if he sticks his ugly head up, we'll cut his head off too. We just cut it off in Jesus' name. We take it back. We take back. Territory for the kingdom of God, which the enemy has perverted, and where wickedness has come in. Father, we take it back. I take it back for Jesus, Lord.. Sonja And Father, I thank you that you are a redeemer, that everything that has been lost, Father, you give back. The enemy's got to get back what he stole seven times, sevenfold return in Jesus' name. Ha, Father, you are a God of redemption. You are God of healing and restoration, and Father, I thank you. Ha, ha! No, in Jesus' name. But we take back what the enemy has stolen in Jesus' name. You get what you settle for, people. That's what I'm hearing the Lord say. You get what you settle for, and if you settle for whatever is looks like in the natural, whatever handed to you, and you come in agreement with that, that's what you get. But the Lord says, "Don't settle, don't settle, because you'll become like sinking sand and get lost in the situation. But the Lord says, "You cannot settle for what the enemy has handed you. That's not God. Absolutely not God. And the Lord says it's time for you to rise up and take your position. Take possession of your own gate, and the Lord says, "Not every gate looks the same. Ha. You know, I think about President Trump and how it's all about securing our borders to keep the enemy out, and what's been going on in the with Hamas and different areas, and how the war and the fighting and the infiltration of the enemy and how God has used him stop a lot of things and a lot of things have happened, but it's securing the border, our borders in the natural for our land and for America, and it's the same thing in our own personal lives. We have to secure our borders, and sometimes that doesn't. You know, it looks different from some for some folks. But I hear the Lord say, "Secure your borders. Secure your borders. Rakha And when you're talking about securing the borders, so what I see when we're storming the gates is I think I'm starting to understand where this is coming from and where this is going. So for the most part, what we have done is we have put the enemy in a border and put them put a gate right there and said, okay, enemy, you this is you, this is you right here in this box. This is your gate, and as Christians, we shouldn't have even done that. We should not have given them an inch to even have. So when we're storming those gates, what we're going in to doing is we're gonna push through that gate. And we're gonna reclaim that that area that we allowed Satan to roam in. Basically, you know, it was, for the lack of a better word, you know, that was that was the area that, I mean, they we allowed the enemy to have that area, but as Christians, we're going to take it back. So whatever, and I'm just putting this out there, especially for Philadelphia, Mississippi, Neshoba County, the state of Mississippi. I'll even go regional and national. Whatever you are, enemy, we're gonna find you. We're storming the gates. We're gonna kick you out of that boundary that you once ruled and reigned over. As Christians, we are coming in. We are taking back what is ours. We're going to be the equivalent of ICE for the Lord. Ruth Ann I just like the thought of being ICE. And come on, and remember, this is what we talked about earlier. Second Samuel chapter 15. David said, "David said, arise and let's flee. Arise and let's go. He said it out of his own mouth. He let the enemy in the door. Y'all see what I'm saying, even though something happened, he said, "Arise, for we shall not escape from Absalom. He's the one that said it. God didn't say it. It's just like Job in the conversation with his three, two friends, three friends. I had to count his friends sitting around. Okay, they had that conversation, and God said, "I can't move as long as y'all talking like this guy, he did. What did he say to Job? I put it in Southern English. As long as you're talking to these folks, I can't do nothing for you. Pray for them. Get up, dust yourself off, and get away from their thought pattern. Isn't that what he said? Come on, I've taught it in detail. I know this stuff, and David wouldn't even take the ark to Jerusalem back with him. He wouldn't take the ark with him. He left God sitting there. Come on, that's bad. Ruth Ann He was mad. He was feeling all pity party. He took on a victim spirit. Can you see that? You want me to tell you what gifting he is? Redemptive gift, mercy. He went victimization. So, what happens then? Finally, when they tell him his own counselors turned away, he finally gets enough gumption in him to say, "Let him give foolish advice. That's all he did, and God answered it, and it turned the whole gate. So sometimes we don't, we can't figure out how Satan got in. We let him roam in our place, and we have to tell him to get out. I like what you said, Rakha. I like being ICE against the enemy and putting them out of the border. Judah team Sang : Revelation19 Sonja You know when we got started this morning, Ruthann was praying and she was talking to the Lord, and she said, "I heard you, Jesus, when you walked in here. I heard your footsteps walk in here, so He's here. So whatever you have need of, whatever you need Jesus to do, He's right here. And I'm telling you, Judah Team Sonja One touch from the Lord, one touch from the Lord, just one touch from the Lord, just one touch from the Lord, and things will change and rearrange. One touch from the Lord. He's looking at your heart. He's looking at your heart. So whatever you have need of, Just ask Him. Thank you, Lord. Ruth Ann Some of us just need to surrender to let him touch us. You know, we sit around and say he's going to touch somebody else, and we need to get that. We need to get that attitude gone and let him touch us. Just one touch, and just let him come and let him take away, take away everything you're carrying, and just let him heal. Just let him heal. Judah Team Sheila Going deep, going deep, deeper. Let him go deep. Let him go deeper. It's deeper than you think. Surrender all. Surrender all. Ruth Ann Just put yourself on the altar and just let him heal you in a different way. Let him heal you deep, both emotional, physical. That is an attitude. Judah Team Sheila Lay that last piece of paper down. That thing you're holding on to, gripping in your fist. Lay it down. Lay it down. Lay it down, give it to Him. It really only works when you give it all to Him. Give it all to Him. Surrender all. Surrender all. to Jesus, to Jesus, to Jesus. Ruth Ann Deeper and deeper. Let him go deep . Let him take all the attitudes. People tell me I have an attitude. I always say I don't. Sonja You know, one of the things that we've talked about when we're coming up to the gate is standing, and something happened. I'm gonna testify. You know, you just testify and you just do it because you overcome, and it just makes the devil mad. But I had something happen to me a couple of days ago. I was carried on a conversation with somebody and listening. Something just rose up. I can't say it rose up in me. It came from me, from my spirit, where there was just a calmness and just a firmness in me. And I'm standing up here, and you're reflecting back over it. And the Lord says, "Share that, because that's what standing is, where you're immovable, unshakable, or that you know something. Now, your emotions might tell you one thing, okay? Because I mean, I know that, but I know one thing: when you know that you know that you know that you know that you know that you know that you know, and there's just this standing on the inside, it doesn't matter what it looks like on the outside. It doesn't matter. It doesn't. I mean, I'm not saying those things don't exist, but I'm telling you, and I'm standing up here, and the Lord said, "That's standing. That's standing in your faith, because the Bible says without faith it's impossible to please God, and it's faith that pleases God, and it's faith that moves His hand to create and to move on your behalf. But the Lord spoke to me a while ago, and He said, "That's standing in your faith, standing. Judah Team Sheila We gotta stand. Everybody, stand up! Stand up! Gotta stand. Gotta stand. Gotta stand with Jesus.
