Sonja: Father, we stand we watch our enemies fall, they are under our feet in the name of Jesus, they have no authority over us . We glorify Your goodness. We love you.

 

Judah Team: Show us your glory, We see your Glory. Take Over. Take over. Show us Your Glory more of you, take over.

 

Sonja: Lord, you are high and lifted up. High and lifted up and your presence, Father wraps around us. Your arms wrap around us.

 

Judah Team: We surrender to you.

 

Sonja : Father I thank you the Lion of the tribe of Judah is waking up on the inside of us, and we're roaring, Father, we're roaring your sound. Thank you, Lord, that you're parting the waters, Lord. Just as Moses raised his staff in obedience, Father, his obedience, yes, Lord, his obedience, to raise the staff, Lord, when you told him to parted those waters, you did it. Lord, but he had to activate through obedience. And so Father, I thank you that the waters are parting here at Global Vision Faith Center in the name of Jesus through obedience to what you are speaking. Thank you, Lord. Thank You Jesus, Father, you said, if we lack wisdom, to call on the spirit of wisdom. Because you are wisdom. So Father, I thank you for wisdom this morning. Thank you, Lord, for you are highly lifted up of God.

 

Ruth Ann: Well, okay, I knew this, but I didn't know this. I just read something that I've read many times, and got more revelation on it, maybe because I looked up the word. So we often read, Arise and shine, for your light has come, and the glory of God rises upon you, and darkness covers the earth. And it goes on to say, but the Lord rises upon you, Isaiah 61: 1-2. The word there is K, A, B, O, D, meaning it's weight, it's an honor or a splendor. But listen to the next part of the definition. It acts as a force of divine power. It's pretty interesting. The Glory is a force of divine power. So when the glory is coming upon you, asking for this force of divine power to come upon you. Now, we always think the glory just means we shake, okay? Because I go back to charismatic days. We think the glory just means we shake and hoop and holler, right? It says it is a force. That's the fourth definition. But I like this fourth one, okay. It is a force of divine power in this scripture. So Arise and shine, for your light has come, and the glory of God rises upon you, and darkness covers the earth. But this divine power comes on you. Get that this divine power comes upon you. So, in a sense, the next thing it says is that makes it a weapon. That's interesting. It makes it a weapon. It exposes, it purifies, and It conquers everything that opposes God's nature. When his glory manifests, no enemy can stand. Get that it is a weapon of divine power. It is a force that comes upon you. It's not just that you shake all the time or that you run and jump around that might be a manifestation, but you need that divine power. It comes up on you. And what it does is it comes up on you. This force is a weight. It's an honor. It is a splendor, but it destroys darkness and establishes his reign. So Father, we surrender for it doesn't matter what's going on in the earth, Father, God, we surrender to your divine power this day to come upon us, to be the force that fills us, to be a force that plows through the earth and plows through what the enemy is doing against us, personally, against your people, against our cities, towns, state or nations, Father God. So we surrender Father God to this force of divine power. Let it fill us. Let it come upon us. Let it overtake us. Let it consume us with your power, Father God, we can raise the dead. We can cast out devils. We can heal the sick. Father God, all by your power, all through your desired power. We can bring the wealth and the riches of the earth realm into your kingdom, Father, God, we can do anything through your divine power.

 

Judah Team : Show us your glory, Let us walk, Let us walk in it, divine power in Your glory as a weapon against the enemy.

 

Ruth Ann: Thank you so whatever's going on in your life, just hold out your hand and say, I surrender everything that I have done to run from you, Father, I surrender. Everything that I have done to keep you pushed away, I surrender. I ask for Your Divine power to come upon me. I ask for you to fill me with your divine power.

 

Judah Team: I surrender. We surrender. We surrender to you. Surrender ourselves. We surrender. We surrender to you, to your glory. Put it all in your hands. Surrender. Surrender to your presence.

Sonja: Father. I thank You, Lord, that there is nothing too difficult for our God. Father, I thank you for the shift. I thank you for the shift. I thank you Lord for the shift that's taking place. It's not shifting to the right or to the left, but it's shifting upward. And so Father, I thank you for that divine shift. And Father, we won't back down. We won't surrender to the circumstances. We won't come in agreement with that. But Father, we come in agreement with your glory, with your presence, with your power, and we're going to shift with you, with what you're doing. I thank You, Lord. Thank you, Father, for the shift, there's a shift. And so, Lord, it's not just a shift in the spirit, but it's in the natural also. And so Father, I thank you that as we have surrendered our hearts to you, and as we are partnering with you, you're taking us to that higher place in the shift, it's upward. Yeah, there's a shift.

 

Sonja: Lord, I thank you. He's parting waters too. This morning, there's a there's a parting that's taking place, and I'm telling you, we're going to the other side of whatever this is. We're going to the other side. And so Father, I thank you that we're crossing over. Your promises are yes and amen and they're true. And this, this parting of the water and crossing over is at a higher level because of the shift. Those that will there, the Lord says, Are you coming with me? Are you coming or you can stay behind because it's a choice. You can lay down and quit and give in to your circumstances and what's going on around you, or you can cross over.

 

Ruth Ann : Yeah, so the Lord says you'll see many things shift in the next few days, and you've got to make sure you're standing with me and not in the shift. You got to follow me. You got to step where I step and go where I go. You got to see you're seeing a pull and a tug for who owns you right now. And he says, I'm trying to fill you with my divine power. It's easy to shift. Don't get caught in the pull and don't get caught in the tug and don't get caught in your own opinion. I see it more. I see it. I see waves, but go ahead, Sonja.

 

Sonja: The Lord says you cried out for the deep. You called, you cried out to go deep. And the deep does call into deep. And the Lord says you're not waiting on me, I'm waiting on you. You're asking me to do things that I've already done, but I'm waiting on you. And there has to be a shift in your mind that it has to be a shift in your emotions. The Lord says you can sit here all day long and cry out to Me, but I'm waiting on you. The Lord says I'm not withholding any good or good thing from you. I'm trying to give it to you, but you've got to receive it. And you receive it by faith and with your mouth, by saying, Lord, I receive it. The Lord says, quit hoping so. Quit being in hope and get in faith, hoping that I'm going to do this, and hoping this is going to happen. He says, You've got to see it done, see it finished, and come go with me. He said, and he spoke that to me earlier as I was getting ready this morning and just praising the Lord and just laughing and just talking out loud to him, and he said, I'm waiting On my people. They're not waiting on me. The Bible says that the righteous take it by force, and with that force does it come violence or anger or frustration or bewilderment or confusion and chaos. He said, Because I'm in the middle of your chaos, he says, I'm waiting on you to believe what you are asking me to do will come to pass.

 

Ruth Ann: Somewhere around 2am I don't know what time frame I was in on the new time or the old time, so let's just go whatever 2am I had my clock on at that time, I sat straight up in bed, and God said this word to me. He said the Hegelian Dialect. And he says, My people are talking in the Hegelian Dialect. You don't know what it means. It means when you use a language that you really don't understand, you're stopping yourself by your words, but your words are so programmed in you that and Sonja just said it. Don't say I'm waiting on the Lord, but I'm moving with the Lord. Don't say I am gonna lag behind. Say I'm keeping up with the Lord. He said to me, very plainly, My people are speaking in a Hegelian Dialect, and I cannot move, he said. But then he told me, he reminded me, and he said, I have to, I have to do the same thing of the tower of Babel. And it says in Genesis 11: 6, and the Lord said, behold, there one people, and have one language, one people, one language. And this is the only the beginning of what will they what they will do, and nothing they purpose to do will be impossible for them. Why will it not be impossible? Because anything they say they're going to get, however they say it, that's right. Whether they say they can build the tower or they can't build a tower. That's huge folks, so he wants to release everything, but we got to step into his divine glory. And to get into his glory, I've got to come in with his dialect. I can't come in with a dialect created by governmental forces, and that's what a Hegelian Dialect is. Is created psychologically to keep you tripped up with your words. You have got to speak what he is and who he is. He's almighty, he's everlasting. He is the only one. He's the most powerful one, and his power flows through me, and it gives me divine Power within him.

 

Sonja: You know when the disciples, when Jesus told the disciples that you will be my witnesses in Judea, and you know all the other parts of the earth with that scripture, when he was commissioning them, he didn't say, you might be my witnesses. He said, You will be my witnesses. You will. And so what I hear the Lord say is that you don't have to be concerned about what to say or what not to say. He says when my power comes upon you because I am in you, I will fill your mouth at that appointed time on what to say. And he says, When you speak, what comes out of your mouth, because I have filled your mouth, because I am in you and you are in Me, it will dispel the enemy, and truth will prevail. For there will be those that will scream, those that will reject, but it's not you that they're rejecting. It's the power that's in you, that's coming out of your mouth, and what I'm seeing is all these demonic forces that operate through people just going nuts because of the power that comes out of you and me. It's the power, it's the anointing that we carry. The Lord says the enemy will try to trip you up and set a trap. But Did I not say that I've given my angels charge over you, that if you go to step into a trap, they'll hold you up. He said, I hold you up by the word of my power. And my word is in you, which is my Son, which is my Holy Spirit, because I am your Father and you are my children. I will not let you stumble. I will not let you fall when you look to me, the Great I Am in everything, after all. So the Lord says, Stand Tall this day and be bold as a lion. Stand Tall and push through as you stand, you will see my hand part the waters. You will see great and mighty things. So be encouraged this day, because my power is in you and on you to bring glory to me. And there will be those that cannot deny and will not deny my power for the demonstration of my glory and the change in the shift that is occurring. They won't be able to deny it. Hallelujah

 

Sonja: Okay, there's those, and I want you to listen to what Sonja saying. There's those that cannot deny His power. That's really important. But I'm gonna go back to the Hegelian Dialect, and I'm going to explain it, and then I'm gonna explain it in what, in terms of what Sonja just said. It was developed in the 18th century by Frederick Hegel in Germany, and it was developed for government control. Okay, actually, it is a manipulative language where you teach people to emphasize the problem. Wow. The language emphasizes the problem. Wow, wow. The Language emphasize you want to say that again, emphasizes, and it says in modern discussions, especially in political and conspiracy context, people use the term Hegelian dialect to manipulate strategy of how to solve a problem, because you emphasize the problem. You're all focused on the problem. Your language emphasizes the problem. God is telling us he's our divine solution, but if I'm emphasizing a problem, I cannot see him as my solution, and my reaction is I don't have an answer. It's in our language. I've studied this in detail, is so woven in our language, we don't realize what we say sometimes, and I'm having trouble. But if you'll stop and think, What do you say that emphasizes the problem? Well, it's just a common term that emphasizes the problem, and it's in common language, and it was placed here that we don't look at the solution. Remember, the Hebrew mindset has no word for fatal, because there's nothing fatal, because if Jesus comes, he fixes everything, he brings a divine solution. Praise the Lord. Thank You, Lord. So the dialect that God was talking to me about this morning and gave me Genesis 11: 6, was that whatever they said they're going to build, even if it's negative, and if we allow the world around us to keep speaking negative, and we agree with it, we're agreeing with what they're building. If we agree and look around and say, We're not going to make it through this government shutdown, you're agreeing with it. You're in 100% agreement with it. Sometimes you just need to get up and say, God, I don't know how you're coming through with me, but we're coming through. We're coming through. Lord, that's a whole new mindset, hallelujah. Hallelujah. You got to know He is Almighty. He is divine. He is the most powerful. And when you're connected with him. You need to allow him to consume you with that power. He needs to consume your dialect. He needs to consume your speech, because He created everything from the words he said, and he gave us the same ability. We're in his image. So we are creators, and our dialect creates, and if we come into agreement with each other that we can't overcome, we come as a united force. We come as a force. And you don't want to be a force against what he's doing. See when the when you have 3 million children of Israel standing there saying it's impossible, and you got 3 million minus two, and you got two people saying it's possible, but you have 3 million determining their life to walk in the desert and never in a promise. So those two, those two, those two people, Joshua and Caleb, had to wait for those 3 million people to die off with their language so they could be free. They had to wait 40 years for freedom because of what their families were speaking. We got to get it, folks. We gotta get it. We gotta go to a level where nothing is impossible for us. Nothing is impossible. Through Jesus Christ, he arose, He died for us, He arose. And everything is possible. There is nothing, nothing impossible. Look around and just see what he's done for you. And if you would surrender to him in a greater way, what greater thing can he do for you?

 

Sonja: Amen, amen, amen, amen. And I just want to say this, I need to repent Father anywhere that I have come in agreement with the government shutdown or agreeing that it's hard or it's difficult, Father, I repent. I pull those words down in Jesus name anywhere Lord, in the name of Jesus, and I ask You to cleanse me with the blood of Jesus. Amen, hallelujah. Oh, nothing's too difficult for you, Lord, nothing is too difficult.

 

Ruth Ann: Get it on a new level today. You got to get a new level in him. Today you cannot. You can no longer agree with anyone that says It's impossible, everything, everything is possible.

 

 

Judah Team: What are your words creating around you? What are your thoughts creating around you? Are you allowing the Spirit of God to work, allowing the impossible to become reality. Are you allowing, are you allowing God to Come out of the box. Look around you. Listen to what you're saying, what the world is saying. You agreeing with heaven or are you agreeing with earth?

 

Rakha: So having us listening to everything that was being said today, I was reminded in a conversation that I had with a person, it was a family member, actually, and that family member said to me, and I understand what is going on. It was really, you know, our spirits weren't aligning, and what that person said to me was, stop talking to me. And I'm going, I'm back into that. I went back into that memory. And what I did was, when that person told me Stop talking to me. I did exactly that. But Lord, I need to repent for that, because what I did was I allowed the enemy to enter into my atmosphere. I did not push that enemy back. I did not tell that enemy, get out away. Get away from me. Get out of my atmosphere. That's what I should have done. And not only is it our words, but it's other people's words that come into us. We can't allow them to enter into our atmosphere. We can't allow them to enter into our bubble. So, Heavenly Father, where I did that, where I allowed the enemy to enter into my bubble, to enter into my atmosphere. Heavenly Father, I ask for forgive. This, please forgive me. Lord have mercy upon me for that. And the next time that the enemy threatens to come into my atmosphere, I'm going to look that enemy in the eye and Imma tell him, Satan, Get behind me. Get away from me. In Jesus's name.

 

Judah Team: Get behind me. Get behind me, devil. Jesus come in. Let our sound be your sound. What are we creating? What are we creating with our words?

Judah Team: He'll do it again and again and again and again. He's gonna do it again and again and again. He's gonna do it again and again and again and again and again, because He's our Father, he's our Father, he's our Father, oh yes, he's our dad. He's our daddy. He's our Father, who is going to do it again and again and again and again. Your glory, your glory. Your glory, oh again and again and again, yes, you are Lord, Oh hallelujah and again and again and again and again and again and again and again. Thank you, Jesus.

 

Ruth Ann: Now, I used to have people. People don't do this to me anymore, because, really, they're afraid to, because they know I'm not bad. Well, because I'm going to rebuttal. Okay, but I've had people to tell me, Oh, I was raised by parents who grew up in the depression. So therefore this is how I think. And I'm like, in other words, what you're telling me is that your parents bought everything that was put out there about the depression. They believed there was nothing to be had they agreed with it with their mouths. And now you have the same belief system. You see why people don't say that to me, don't you anymore? Yeah, because you know when one of the greatest transfers of wealth happened was in the Great Depression, it was just fixed so that the majority of the people would believe. And I taught this when I taught social studies, and I love to teach it okay, it was fixed so the people would believe that there was nothing, while the few that they wanted the wealth to go to got the wealth. Y'all good with me. So when you see the enemy rising up like that, you start saying, I'm coming through this. I am not going under. I am not going down. I will not be without my Jesus is stronger than anything, than any government, than any person, than any Kingdom puts out there, my Jesus is greater. See, I make my Jesus small when I agree. I take his power away when I agree. Everybody good with me. My Jesus is greater. There's nothing he can't do. So when somebody tells me there's not anything, I'm like, Oh, but I got it. Ever just walk through your house and said, I have everything I need? Do you pick up your checkbook and say I have everything I need and more, it says my storehouses overflow that I joyfully give. How can I store houses overflow? If you're cursing your storehouse. The Bible say my storehouse is overflow till I joyfully give to others. That means everything is paid. You have what you want. You're not walking around trying to figure out how to make a car payment. If you're joyfully giving to others, you might be giving, but not joyfully. Come on, folks, if you don't have it, it's you're giving, but without joy. You're giving, hoping to get everything paid off. But if you start reframing what you think and what you say, then you will align with what God wants us to align with his glory, His divine power.

 

Judah Team: Hey, moving up, we're moving up, we're moving up, we're moving up.

Judah Team sang: The Lord God Almighty Reigns

 

Sonaj: When I went to I was going to do the shofar the Holy Spirit said, No, I want you to do the little trumpet. He called it a trumpet. He says, when you blow it, victory. He said, victory. That's what I heard and I felt it.

 

Ruth Ann: You just tell everything, get out of your way. I'm a child of God, right? You move out of my way. So let's say :: I declare that the authority of Jesus Christ in me crushes every Scorpion spirit that tries to come against me and destroys the pain of the Scorpion and the Fear of the Scorpion our paralysis brought into my life by the scorpion. I can think clearly the scorpion cannot cloud my thinking ability on how to overcome and win. That's important in it. I declare I tread upon serpents and scorpions and all over the power of the enemy, and nothing shall harm me. I declare that every poison released against my destiny is neutralized by the blood of Jesus. I declare that I am not scattered by deception or confusion, but I am established, immovable and aligned with heaven's assignment. I declare every hidden sting from betrayal or backbiting against me loses its effect on me. [We're going to do that one again for somebody.] I declare every hidden sting from betrayal or backbiting loses its effect on me. I declare no demonic venom will paralyze my progress. I rise with the divine strength and move forward. o Father, in the name of Jesus. I declare that in this month of Cheshvan, I receive the early rain, the former rain and the latter rain of Revelation. I declare that hidden seeds within me that give me life, come forth. I declare my pain of the past turns into productivity. And I declare that the wells of deep water within my spirit break open and overflow with wisdom and understanding. So Father, I give you the pain of my past. I lose everything that's kept me from prospering to you, and I come into the land of fruitfulness. So I decree I come into Divine Alignment with heaven's timing, and I sync with a rhythm of God that I am anointed to overcome, to be prosperous. And live in blessings, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

 

Ruth Ann: So, Father, we just bless everybody. Father God, to forget the pain of the past, to let go of the serpents and scorpions. Father God for the scorpion, the sting of the Scorpion, to come out of your body. And we want to tread now, Sheila, we just need to tread. Okay, I don't know where we're going in this song, but y'all praise and worship. We just need to tread. We need to tread upon serpents. And then I want y'all to do this. When the music starts, I want you, I don't know what they're gonna sing, I don't know what beat they're going to but I want you to stop they want you to put everything you need to walk on under your feet. I mean, this is like a prophetic act. Whatever's been giving you problems, start putting it under your feet and just start saying, I'm walking on it. I'm treading on it. The other worst it can do is bruise my heel. I am walking on that thing. If you got some boss that is just really on the enemy side, start treading. If you got somebody around you is trying to take what you've got, just start treading. Now, God loves people. I'm going to say that, but he doesn't like situations. Y'all get the difference in that. So I'm not treading on a person. I'm trading on a situation. Everybody good with me. I'm treading on situations that stop me. Amen.

 

Ruth Ann: okay, some are you not treading hard enough. You got to stomp that thing down. Just put it under your feet. Imagine you're stomping on it. At words it was spoken to you. Just stomp on it.

Judah Team: We are treading on the head of the enemy. Treading on the head of the enemy. We are treading on the head of the enemy. We are treading on the head of the enemy. We are treading on the head of the enemy. Stomping his head, let's stomp. Ya'll really need to think about what you need to stomp on , what's coming against you, that's what your stomping on.

Sonja: It may feel a little weird, You're stomping prophetically. It's powerful When you do that. Come on.

 

Judah Team: Treading on the head of the enemy. Treading on the head of the enemy. He is under our feet, depression is under our feet, financial struggles are under our feet, those words is under our feet, accusations is under our feet. WE are treading on the enemy , we are trading on the head of the enemy.

Sonja: Okay, I just saw it. There's something in the spirit realm that the enemy has been hanging over your head. And the Lord says, pull it down. ull it down and stomp on it. Whatever the enemy's been hanging over your head. Pull it down and stomp on it.

 

Judah Team: Pull down that enemy, stomp on his head, he is under our feet

 

Sheila: I gotta agree with Sonja. The things that are looming over us, those things that like all of a sudden, you'll think about it, you know, just brings oppression, situation at your job. It could be something with education. It could be somebody that you've been your family, who don't know what it is, but whatever. It is that thing. Just wear it loose, just pull it down and stomp.

 

Ruth Ann: Now, just one last thing, and we're just going to let you stomp the thing that you fear the most. Just reach up, pull it down and say, I stomp on you. If it's a loss, if it's not good enough, whatever it is, just pull it down and say, I stomp and let it feel good. Amen. Amen, God hallelujah. Amen, Oh hallelujah.

 

Sonja: Father I thank You, Father, for today. I thank you for the word of the Lord that's come forth this day. I thank You, Father, that the veil has been ripped open off of our thinking. Father, that we are seeing at a higher level. Father, I thank You for Your glory. I thank You, Father, that we have authority in you. Father, I thank you that the enemy is under our feet and Father, I praise you for today, Lord. I thank you for the anointing that's been here today. I thank you for your presence that's been here today. And Father, I just speak blessings over each person over this ministry in the name of Yeshua hamasha.

122125 Shamar You Heart

By Ruth Ann McDonald • December 22, 2025
121425 Re-Rooted and Re-Grounded in the Lord Keywords Father God, re-rooting, re grounding, Isaiah 61, Ephesians 3:17, deeper roots, faith, identity, Hanukkah, rededication, miracles, spiritual calendar, temple, prophecy, shaking. Ruth Ann : So Father, we just thank you for who you are. We thank You, Father, God that we know you. God where people are ducking and being afraid of what's happening. We see you, Father, we see who you are. We see what you're doing. So Father we just thank you for who you are, and we praise You, Father God, and we welcome your presence on this 24 day of Kislev, which starts at 6pm tonight. Father we just thank you for who you are, everlasting, the true God, the only God, the great God, and we praise You, Father, we worship you. And you are the great I AM. You are the everlasting God. You are the King of kings and the Lord of all. So Father, we just welcome who you are, and We acknowledge who you are. Judah Team: Can you feel the wind blow? Ruth Ann: So what I hear - today is a day of being re rooted and re grounded. Re rooted and re grounded in the Lord, coming to a new place in him, coming to a new grounding in him, coming to letting your roots go deeper and deeper and deeper in him, deeper than what you've been it's based on Isaiah 61:3 where it calls God's people the oaks of righteousness. It says that he can display his people like splendor. It also connects to Ephesians 3:17, that talks about being rooted and grounded in the Lord. And then Isaiah 61 talks about, again, God fits his people perfectly along beside of him. So Father God, we invite your re grounding and re rooting today you're reestablishing our roots, Father God, taking our roots deeper and deeper and deeper in you. A re-grounding in you, a replanting. Father God, of us today, where we are alongside of you. We're not running in fear, we're not in terror. We aren't with you. We are rooted and grounded in you. Sheila: What comes to my mind, as you said, that is, you know, when there's a time of drought with trees, the roots will go deeper to find the water when it's not easily accessible, when they're not getting enough water, just more on the surface. And when that happens, then the tree becomes stronger, because those roots are deeper. So it will hold fast in the violent storm. So even with what Ruth Ann said, Father, I thank you, our roots are going deeper that it doesn't matter what's going on around doesn't matter what we're seeing, Father, we are going deeper in you so we can withstand anything that the enemy would try to bring or we are not swayed by the circumstances by the shaking. Judah Team: Gotta go deeper, diving deeper, growing deeper. Are you ready? Are you ready? Pushing, pressing, go deeper. Here we go. Ruth Ann: So Mississippi, we re-ground you today in the Lord we send the roots of Mississippi deeper and deeper and deeper into the ground to find the sound, the rhythm, the beat of the Lord Jesus Christ, to find his voice to find a turning away from the world and a turning into him. We say to the waters of Mississippi, you can only hear the sound of the Lord, But we call you Mississippi into the grounding of Yeshua , Jesus, our Messiah. This day we call you to be established as a righteous oak in this nation, A place of righteousness for Yeshua, Jesus, our Messiah. Rakha : So a couple weeks ago, I gave a word about looking for areas where there's, it's considered a no fly zone . You can't fly over. Syria happens to be one of those places. I don't know the significance of this yet, but I'm just pointing that out. And also I'll point out that this is the location where the Sermon on the Mount was delivered. Sheila: Where the Sermon on the Mount was delivered in Damascus. Ruth Ann: So you've let God replant you in him today. You just, you don't have to, but if you want to go where he is during this time, you've got to be planted deeper in a deeper, deeper. You've got to let your tap root, your root in him, go deeper. It's got to go to a place that hasn't been before. And when it goes to a place it hasn't been before, he's going to show you what's stopping it. That's the rebuilding. He always shows you why you haven't gone deeper. And you have to let him go. If you want to go where he is, you have to let your tap root go even deeper. And when you bypass those things that's holding you back, you have to let him just pull them out one at a time. I don't care if you believed in him 100 years. That's okay. He says, a deeper, a deeper grounding is required. A deeper, deeper, deeper place to be an oak of righteousness. Judah Team ; You have to go deeper past the emotions and the thoughts gotta go deeper. Connect with His Spirit. Gotta go deeper. Take every thought captive. Give him all emotions. Gotta go deeper. Get past yourself. Get past ourselves. Go deeper in him. Let go of what you're holding on to. Let go of yourself. We gotta let go of ourselves, go deeper, gotta die to ourselves and live for him. That's the only way it works. Laid down the emotions, the thoughts, lay down our own way of thinking. Where we think we got it figured out. Give that to him, give it up, give it up, give it up, give it up. And go deeper. Less of me and more of Jesus , less of us and moreof Holy Spirit. Really only room for one. Is it gonna be you or is it going to be Him. We're are letting go, Lord. We're let go. Lord, releasing to you. Less of us and more of Him, none of us and all of Him. Oh, give up your right to be right. Ruth Ann: Ephesians 3:17 says, then by constantly using your faith, let's talk about what faith is. Faith is the substance of everything you see in your head. I know I put it in a different term. What did I say? Faith is the substance of what you think about all the time, what you dwell on. Faith is the pictures you make about yourself in your head. Do you believe you're going to overcome? Do you see yourself in victory, or do you see yourself defeated? That's your substance. Because faith is a substance. If you look it up, it means it's a tangible thing. And what tangible thing is? When Jesus said, If you look up on a woman in lust, it's the same as doing the act. What does it mean? Anything you see in your head is tangible? Does that make sense? Anything you see in your head, in your imagination, is tangible, because your mind cannot tell the difference between your imagination or what really happened. So let's read this one again now. Okay, Ephesians 3:17, okay, and I'm going to start with verse 16. Let's just go there. No wait a minute, I'm gonna start. Let's start with verse 16, and I pray that he would unveil within you the unlimited riches of his glory and favor until supernatural strength floods your innermost being with His Divine might and explosive power. Are you asking for His might and power on the inside of you? I pray that he would unveil within you unlimited riches of his glory and favor until supernatural strength flood your innermost being with Divine might and explosive power, then, by constantly using your faith, that's what you see on the inside of your head. By constantly using your faith, this is Bible tells us to take our thoughts captive. Sometimes, when you start picturing yourself defeated, you got to say, Stop. Stop. Stop. I cannot think that way. I cannot receive that picture. I cannot let that be a substance in my head. Stop and I take it captive. Then, by constantly using your faith, the life of Christ will be released deep inside of you, by constantly taking control of that thought, the life of Christ is going to be released deep inside of me and the resting place of his love when I'm constantly taking control of what my mind is thinking, you know, my tongue is going to follow what I'm thinking. Then now His love will become the very source and the root of my life. And when his love becomes the source and root of my life, I can change things, because my thinking, my substance, has changed, what I believe about myself has changed. Wow, wow, so if you believe you can overcome, and see yourself overcoming in your head, that's your faith. That's your faith being the source and rooted Now be honest as he takes you deeper today, be honest with yourself. What stinking thinking have you had about yourself, because his roots got to go down past that. You got to let the root that he's trying to build in you today go past every negative thoughts you've had about yourself. You got to take it past all of the thoughts you've had of, oh, if that person is just not doing this, and that person did not done that. It don't matter what they did. You stood through it. They didn't take you out. They didn't defeat you. You're here and breathing. So let everything that's what do we talk about? Let it be cleaned out. He's going to show you the last time you believed in yourself, and he's got to go past that. Do you hear what I'm telling you? Do you remember the last time you fully believed in yourself? He's got to take that past you to reground it. You got to go deeper than that time to reground yourself. Amen. Sheila: So with what Ruth Ann said, God's been having me study faith. He had me on it a while ago and brought me back to it. And I think there's so much there. But even with what Ruth Ann said, in Ephesians, it says, in the passion translation says, Put on your wrap around shield of faith. So if our thoughts are not correct, if we're thinking the wrong thing, then what does that shield look like? So the protection is supposed to be there for us. God of God has for us that protection, knowing he's there, knowing who we are in Him, and so we need to step up, bring our thoughts into that alignment, go deeper in him, so that truly is a protection, so that truly is wrapped around us so the enemy Can't touch us. Rakha: And it's also about, not only about capturing thoughts, your conscious thoughts, but it's also about this subconscious thoughts that comes in with dreams. And so the other night, I had been having this reoccurring dream about somebody, and Friday night, when I had this dream about this person again, I just looked at the person in my dream, and I said, You know what? I'm tired of you showing up in my dreams. And I said, No more, get out of my dreams. Stay out of my dreams. So subconsciously, I had to grasp that familiar spirit that was in me, that was in my subconscious, that was taken a hold of my subconscious, and release that from my dreams, from me. Judah Team : 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. He's not a baby in the manger anymore. He's not a man on the cross anymore. He's not that body in the tomb anymore, because he's alive. Oh, the stone is rolled away. My sin is rolled away. The rocks are crying out, he's alive. The stone is rolled away. My sin is rode away. The rocks are crying out, he's alive, because he's not that baby in the manger. No, he's not that man on the cross, no, he's not that body in The tomb. He's alive. He's alive. He's alive. He's alive. What an amazing grace, sweet the sound that the Savior came to Earth for me, he came as a baby, was born in this world. What amazing grace that Jesus came as a baby in a manager to save the world. How can we comprehend all that, that means he's alive. He's alive. He's the light of the world. The darkness is no more. He's alive. The light is here. What amazing grace that Jesus came as a baby, in a manger for us to save, died on the cross and rose from the grave. Can we comprehend what that really means? The light of heaven came down to the earth so the darkness could no longer overwhelm, the darkness has been displaced because he's alive and he's the light, he's alive and he's the light. He's the light in us, he's alive. So we're alive. We have overcome. We are the light because he's inside us. You're the light to the darkness. Oh, he's the light of the world. He's the light in us can overcome. There's nothing that can hold us back. There's nothing that can hold us back. Step in, go deeper. Don't accept him as a baby in a manger anymore, because he's alive. With the price that Jesus paid, he has changed our DNA. Brought the light inside us because he's alive. With the price that Jesus paid, he has changed our DNA. He is the light inside us. He is the sound inside us. RELEASE the Light today. Release his Sound today, cause he's alive. He's alive. Jesus, we no longer see you as a baby in the manger born, no longer see you on the cross or in the tomb. We see you as the victor, having won already so that we have we have won. You are the light of the world. You are the light, you are the light. You are the miracle. You are the miracle. You are the light. Hey, hey. You Are the Light. Sheila : What some singing up here, just getting revelation on the birth of Jesus. And, you know, so often we have, I mean, the Christmas plays and the the baby in the manger, and the angels light , you know, hark, the herald angels sing and, but it's like, I'm getting this realization of, WOW, Jesus came as a baby. This was, it's like, I'm not seeing this sweet little picture, I'm seeing the power of God being born on earth to set the plan into motion to save everyone from darkness. It started with that. And it's like this, the like the the greatness, the light, the it's just this realization. I just wonder, you know, when the angels came to the shepherds, was there clashing of swords? Was there warfare going on? Was there a battle, even for them to bring that message? And that it's more than this sweet little picture, and that it's also, you know, so often at Christmas we have our manger scenes, and I love manger scenes. I have a lot of them, but the mindset that he is still that baby in the manger is maybe part of what's holding the church back from what God is wanting the church to be in this time. So Father, in the name of Jesus, we thank You that You sent Yeshua as a baby down here. Fully God, fully man, to start the redemption of mankind from the sin that had invaded the earth, Father, we are so grateful, father. And we just want to say we recognize this amazing event and the power and the glory and the light that came in that moment, Lord. We thank You. We thank you. Judah Team: He's the light of the world. He's the light of the world. There's no light without him. He's the light of the world. Drives back the darkness. Light of the world. He's the light of the world. He's A light for you and me. Judah Team sang : Joy to the World Deborah: All I was gonna say was, is when they hit that first JOY. It shifted. I felt it in myself. So I felt like it shifted in the room too. Ruth Ann: Here's where we are. We're at Hanukkah. We were also at some other place, very, very interesting. And let's go to Haggai and Sheila, let your voice read this instead of mine. We're going to Haggai 2we're going to start on verse 10, and I have my vav up here with me. Sheila: Okay, starting at verse 10, Haggai, two on the 24th day of the ninth month in the second year of Darius, the word of the Lord came to the prophet Haggai. Ruth Ann :Okay, hold on the 24th day of the ninth month. Well, here we are today, the first day of Hanukkah tonight also begins, Kislev 24 same day, same day in history. We're there. What does that mean? That means that we are in the ninth spiritual month on God's calendar, if we're at Kislev 24 because on God's calendar, his spiritual calendar, we're in the ninth month, and we're on the 24th the day we're at the very day that happened. We're at the very day historically that that happened. Do you get it? Isn't that interesting? So here we but here is what's so interesting about today. Is Hanukkah and that day line up together. That's right, Hanukkah starts in this particular day 9:24, starts now you say what calendar you're on. I'm on the original calendar that God created. Kislev this month. Are you good with me? And this is when it happened. Okay, read the next one. Sheila: This is what the Lord of Armies says. Ask the priest for a ruling if a man is carrying a consecrated meat in the fold of his garment and it touches bread. stew, wine, oil or any other food. Does it become holy? The priest answered, No. Then Haggai asked if someone defiled by contact with the corpse touches any of these, does it become defiled? The priest answered, it becomes defiled. Then Haggai replied, So is this people, and so is this nation before me. This is the Lord's declaration, and so is every work of their hands, even what they offer there is defiled. Ruth Ann: Now, what he's saying is the people are doing things, and they're touching things that are defiled, and they're trying to bring it into my place and saying it's all clean. Everybody good with me. So the people are touching things that's defiled, but you might be hanging out with somebody that's bringing a lot of defilement around you, love me anyway. Remember I talked about there's some people you let close and there's some people you keep out. Okay, now, does that mean I don't witness? I'll go over here in this outer crowd, and I will witness and tell them the love of the Lord. I will attempt to bring miracles out here, but they don't come over here touchable. Y'all get what I'm saying they don't come where they touch me in a very intimate, special way. Do you get what I'm saying? This should be the same for you. That's not pride. Okay? I'm going back clean and unclean. I'm reading this. Sheila : verse 15. Now from this day on, think carefully before one stone was placed on another in the Lord's temple, what state were you in when someone came to a grain heap of 20 measures, it only amounted to 10. When one came to the wine press to dip 50 measures from the VAT, it only amounted to 20. I struck you all the work of your hands with blight, mildew and hail, but you didn't turn to me. Ruth Ann: God said, Look, I'm the one that's been letting your path go bad to try to get you to pay attention to me. I'm putting it in our words. I'm the one that let all that strike you bad, to get you to go deeper to me, not away from me, but deeper to me. I've been seeking you to come to me over the situation for my revelation to you about it, not to the world, but to me, but you let it go back. Sheila: From this day on. Think carefully from the 24th day of the ninth month. from the day the foundation of the Lord's temple was laid. Think carefully. Is there still seed left in the granary? The vine, the fig, the pomegranate and the olive tree have not yet produced. But from this day on, I will bless you. Ruth Ann: Now he said, but from this day on, that's huge. I will bless you. Sheila: The word of the Lord came to Haggai a second time on the 24th day of the month, speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah. I am going to shake the heavens and the earth. I will overturn royal thrones and destroy the power of the Gentile kingdoms. I will overturn chariots and their riders, horses and their riders will fall each by his brother's sword on that day. This is a declaration of the Lord of Armies. I will take you, Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, My servant, this is the Lord's declaration, and make you like my signet ring, for I have chosen you. This is the declaration of the Lord of Armies. Wow. Ruth Ann : I'll take you. I'll make you my signature. I will make you my signature. In the earth, you got to choose when God starts letting it get tight. You got to get down here and say, what's blocking me from going deeper? Where have I walked in the world, where have I been familiar with things that I've overlooked, like James overlooked Jesus? Get me where James overlooked Jesus? Because I got familiar. Because James lived in the house with Jesus. He was so familiar he overlooked the power that it was in his house. He got too familiar with it, and God said, I've been letting you be squeezed because you have got to turn to me. You've got to come to a deeper, deeper place in me. He said, from the ninth month, the 24th day, I will shake heavens and the Earth. Folks, if you don't know the news, we're shaking. You know, in fact, when we were getting ready for our show, Prophetic Table Talk, we have already put together three different news cast already in three days. We keep on sending another one, sending another one to each other, because the news is changing that fast right now. It's more and more added to it. Okay, so basically, the earth is shaking, but don't be afraid, because you got to go deeper. You're at the time of rededication. You're at Hanukkah. You're at and this is what's so different about this Hanukkah. You're in the ninth month, on the 24th day, on the first day of Hanukkah, the day that they rededicated to the Lord. They rededicated the temple that had been stolen to the Lord. What does that mean? I am now the temple. You are the temple. And God wants you to rededicate today. He wants you to rededicate yourself to seek revelation, instead of seeking answers that you're familiar with. Okay, listen to this. I'm about to destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the nations. Better listen when he said this, and it's interesting, it falls on Hanukkah, his date of rededication. Look, I know for 1000s of years, we've hit this day every year for 1000s of years, but it's on the day of Hanukkah today. That's amazing, is it not? And overthrow, the chariots and their riders and the horses and their riders shall go down, and everyone by the sword of his brother, it mean, nations are going to start turning with on nations within you're going to see within, you're about to see from the smallest to the largest. It going sour within, and them turning on each other. Folks, this is a huge promise, because the sword can even be the words of the mouth telling the truth. That's huge, is it not? Folks, this is one to go read everywhere you go. Okay? And on that day, declares the LORD of hosts. I will take you, My servant, declares the Lord, and make you a signet ring. I'll make you my signature in the earth. You just gotta cleanse your temple on a new level. Doesn't mean you don't believe in Jesus. Doesn't mean you haven't accepted him. Doesn't mean any of those things. What it means is it's time to rededicate Amen. It's time to say Hanukkah on this day. On this day, I am willing, and I'm ready to rededicate so we're going to go ahead this morning and we're going to light the Hanukkah candle. Hanukkah does not begin until 6pm tonight, so if you want to do it again tonight, you can relight it. And God told me, he said, deliver this message. You can do Hanukkah every day, because we have eight days of Hanukkah. You say, I don't have a Menorah. Get you two candles. That's all you need. Two candles, because the middle candle represents God, Emmanuel, God with us. And you light off of this candle. That's why you need 2 to say, this candle, I'm not put lighting first is God with me. He is with me, and I'm lighting the candle to say I will live in days of miracles. So when you see the miracle on day one, you don't let your mind shut down the miracle for day two. Ruth Ann: So if you're watching, get your communion elements and make sure you have it. So we want to bless you for Hanukkah. So day one, and here we are. Day one blessing is all about identity today, who you are, and I've written down here what each day represents where there's identity, peace, provision, protection is all on this list. So today is your identity, who you are, and it goes with these scriptures. Ephesians 1:4-5. He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him in love, having predestined us to be adopted as sons and daughters. That's huge. Do you get that he chose us before the foundation of the world, and he chose us that we would be holy and blameless in him by his love, that doesn't mean we're perfect, but by his love, we're holy and blameless, okay, having predestined us to be adopted as sons and daughters. Ruth Ann: So this is today's blessing. I bless you with your true identity in Jesus Christ. Every false label, shame based name, counterfeit identity is removed off of you today. I will say that again over you. Okay, every false label, every shame based name that's ever been put on you, and every counterfeit identity is removed off of you. I renounce over you, the spirit of rejection, the spirit of shame. And I tell the orphan spirits to leave. I command every identity distorting spirit to leave now. And I declare for you sonship authority and your alignment restored to Jesus Christ. So I want you to lift up your elements. And I want you to say ,I receive on this first day of Hanukkah, my true identity in Jesus Christ. That's good folks. Take your cup, and I want you to say, as I receive this covenant, I receive who I am in Jesus Christ, for his blood, the blood of Jesus speaks a better word, over me, over any human word that's ever been spoken over me. Wow, you felt that one, didn't you? Let's take this. So Father, we light the first day of miracles. The candle that say it represents day one of miracles, of living in miracles. Father God and we. Thank you, Father God for who you are. We thank You, Father, God for our true identity, Father and who we are in you now we want to worship Him. Ruth Ann: Let me explain to you where you are. Don't be in fear. Okay, if you turn on the news, don't let anybody tell you anything about fear. Y'all good with me. Don't let them say you'll say, I'm in the middle of the shaking with God, and you can be shaken, but you've got to determine who you are today. Okay, so where are we? Silver. God said the silver and gold are mine. Silver is at $62 today. It's never been their history. You're walking in a day of history. Gold it's 4300 today, you've never been here in history. Never h ave you walked. You're walking going to transfer as well. You've got to get your identity. To get in the middle of it. You've got to know who you are, and The prophets say "Christmas will be glorious." Judah Team: All God's people said, Glory Hallelujah.
