Sheila: I just got to mention something, a few days ago, I had a revelation on. Someone I know has been having trouble with bed bugs. She has a job where she went into homes used to so that's where it came from. But she's just having the worst problem, still having it treated. And this morning, I was like, or maybe it was yesterday, I was like, she needs to bring the frequency of her home above that frequency, it's such a low frequency because of some things that have gone on that they are being allowed to stay. So Father this day in the name of Jesus, and I'm thinking of momentum. Also, we got to have God's momentum, so things happen, so we get into situations, and then what we choose to do with that, and how we push what the devil is moving, out of our way. So we have that positive momentum. Because I feel like you could have momentum, positive or negative. You could you can get caught up in negative things that are going on, and you can just have that downward spiral. They call it So Father, in the name of Jesus.

 

Judah Team: We lift up your name on high in this place, Lord, we lift you up. You are worthy of our worship. You're worthy of our worship. Holy, holy. Lord we step into your sound that's coming from heaven today. We will not stay down. We say victory. We say victory. Moving up, moving up. Say, Victory, victory. We release your sound. We position ourselves for the miracle, the victory today. Will not take less than what you plan for us, what You have for us. Moving up. Moving up. We will not stay down, not be held down we're moving up.

 

Rakha: I so I hear shame and fear has no place here. So we declare that you have no place here, in this building, in our atmosphere, in our homes, in our lives, we say no to you today. And then I'm reminded about how the different stories of the Bible, how people all have there's not one person out there who just goes skating through life. Everybody has a story to tell. Everybody has a testimony. And what I see is our spirits. We are broken in order to be crowned. So I see the different people in the Bible. I see Moses in the Bible. I see, you know, hear David's story and how everybody has at one point in time is broken, but they're broken in order for the Lord to fix us. So I hear trust in the process, trust in the process, he will redeem us. So I thank You, Lord, thank You for and then even in my personal life, all the times that I have come I have come short. I have come short to where the Lord has wanted me to go, but because of his grace and mercy, I am redeemed. And I thank you Lord. I thank you for the trials. I thank you for bringing me through the trials. And I thank you for the crowning in Jesus's name.

 

Ruth Ann: Really good. I was just looking up fear. It was, it was on my heart. And so I was looking it up in this context, because I've been teaching a class on bewitchment and how people come into the bewitchment that is to believe things you're not supposed to believe. And collective fear will bring a whole group into bewitchment, whether it is a family, whether it is a tribe, whether it is a community. But when people get in fear, then you believe you will take in what's not true, and that when you're taking in what's not true, you can't build yourself to victory. Because God's Kingdom is built on truth, right? So truth is God intervenes for me. Truth is the Hebrew mindset is that there is no fatal word in Hebrew, because God shows up when I let him in. God shows up, right? So we come out of all agreement with fear. We come out of all agreement where we took on shame, where we said, Oh no, they have defeated us. They have absolutely not defeated us. They have not taken us down. We break agreement with the spirit of fear. And we found a scripture like, yeah, I have to go to it. In order to take on fear, you have to come under bondage. So all bondage comes off. All bondage comes off. I'm not a slave, and you're not a slave. So we are not in fear. We can think we've come out of slavery, but when we remain in bondage to something, we're still a slave. So Father, we come out of that agreement. We break that agreement. We will not come under bondage. We will not be held slave by anyone that wants to capture us. We release ourselves. We say we are not that anymore, and we are free. We are free from fear, we are free from shame, and we come above it in the name of Jesus.

 

Judah Team: Broken to be crowned. We're broken to be crowned. So we're walking through. We're walking through, for you're crown. We come out from under the slavery. Take it off. Take it off. Remove the veil for your crown. Going up, going higher, not backing down, not looking back, going higher. We might be broken, we're not defeated, we might be kicked down, but we're getting up. We're standing tall, moving forward, going up , going higher. Because the blood of Jesus paid it all. Move it up. Stir it up. Don't want anything except what's built on You. Lord has a firm foundation, built on The Rock, built on the rock. Moving up. Hear the Lord saying, See what I'm gonna do today. See what I will do for you. See how I move, don't hold anything back from me. Give it all to me. Give it all to me. He says, Give it all to me. Let me take it now. Let me make something wonderful. Don't hold on to anything. Give it all to me. Give it all to me. Give it to the Lord. Right now he's waiting to take it all so he can do the impossible. I can do the impossible.

Sheila: Right now, I think he's inviting us to just open our hands and everything that we've been trying to do with our own power, trying to make it work, spending time on it, thinking through it, figuring it out. Just open your hand and say, Lord, I need you to do the impossible. I need you to do the thing I can't possibly figure out. I release it to you. You move for me on my behalf. You move for this ministry Father on our behalf. Because the God that can cause taxes to be paid by a coin in a fish's mouth. Can do whatever he wants to do, do to provide whatever we need and whatever we're asking.

 

Sonja: You know, I just want to say this years ago, this was me, many, many, many, many years ago, I was coming home from work, and I had been going through a really, really crisis situation, personally in my life, and there was like there was no breath in me. It was like I could not breathe. I was just like, it was like everything my frequency on the inside was very, very low. I've nothing to give, I have nothing. And just as soon as I said that, the Holy Spirit spoke to me in a very loud voice in my spirit. And he said, Good, now I can do something with you. And it made my spirit just rise up. And he began to tell me this was on a personal level. He said, I'm going to peel you layer by layer like an onion. And he says, At times it's going to be thin layers. You're not really going to feel it, but I'm peeling it. He said, at times it's going to be thick layers, and you're going to cry. He says, you're going to get mad, you're going to have all these different emotions. But let me do the work, and I just want to confirm what she was talking about the process, because we're all faced with different things in our life, testing, trials, persecution, attacks. Well, guess what? We're in good company because they did it to Jesus, amen. They did it to him, and he overcame and we are overcomers by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of our testimony. So I just want to testify that I have the victory. My family has the victory today. It's already done, and I know that. I know that I've known that. But you know, when you're in situations in different realms of influence and atmospheres, things can try to get on you that's not yours to carry. And I can't fix things myself. I can't fix it. There's nothing I can do to fix it, but pray only God can fix it, and if we could fix it, we wouldn't need God. But when we are totally dependent on him, and get out of the way and let him move. Because we could be the very stumbling block that stopping the move of God by our reaction, by our attitude, by the way we handle things, and we have to get out of the way and let God do it, because there's absolutely nothing in the natural that I can do to fix the situation in my family. There's absolutely nothing I can do in the natural but in the spirit, I'm a warrior. I'm an overcomer. I'm dangerous in the spirit realm. Do you hear me? I'm very, very dangerous. And the Bible is very clear about DO NOT TOUCH MY anointed ones, do not. And when we let go and let God do what he wants to do, it may not turn out exactly the way, it may not look like how we thought he was going to do it, but he will do it. Because the thing is, whatever you're going through, whatever situation you're in, or I'm in, or whoever's in, there's more lives than you that are involved. And God sees the whole picture. And what we have to do in our prayer time is Lord, give us your vision. Let us see it through your eyes. Let us hear what you're saying about it. Because it don't matter what mama has to say about it or daddy has to say about it. It doesn't matter what a judge has to say about it. It doesn't matter what the law has to say about it. What utterly matters is what God says about it. And though we live in this world, we're not of this world. There are legal things on the land that are crooked. There are legal things in the legal system that is not godly, and God's judgment overrules what's on earth. What we have to do is Jesus said, When you pray, what you bind on earth is bound in heaven. What you lose on Earth is loose in heaven. We have to lose the judgment of God in any situation that we're in. And let him move. Let him do what he wants to do. And we got to get out of the way and let him do it as we pray and intercede and lock arms together as warriors, amen. So Father, I thank you right now in the name of Yeshua hamashia that we have the victory, that we are more than conquerors in Christ Jesus. Lord, we are the head and not the tail. We are above and not beneath. And we can do all things, not in our own strength, but in your strength, we can do all things through you, because you give us the strength to do it. If we fixed everything, God wouldn't be glorified. It only would last a moment in time, at a moment but God's glory in His victory that He causes us to walk in is everlasting, everlasting, and it speaks volumes to those that will testify to the goodness and the miraculous things that God will do. So Father, we thank you that you are a miracle working God. Father, you are a miracle working God. Father, we call on the miracles of heaven to come manifest in the earth and the lives of people here, those that will watch, those that are watching. Father, whatever we're going through, whatever you're going through, Father, I thank you for miracles. I thank you for healing. I thank you for deliverance. I thank you for clarity. I thank you for understanding. I thank you for revelation, whatever it is that we need. I, thank you, Father, for finances. I, thank you, Father, that money overflows into the lives of your people, into this ministry. Father God, not for self gain, but to see your kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven. Father, God. Father, I thank you that you meet all of our needs according to your riches and glory. And I thank you for the resources to do it. Father. I thank you. I thank You, Father, that we walk in favor your Word says that if you be for us , who could be against us, even that trumps over what people preconceived ideas are about you are about a situation. Ruth Ann was talking earlier about her being favored of God. The favor of God. I claim the favor of God on my life. I speak favor over your life in Jesus name, in the name of Yeshua hamashia, you are favored of God, and so Father, I thank you for the option of the Holy Spirit, Father, that you quicken our mortal bodies to truth. And I thank you for the Spirit of truth, the spirit of wisdom. I thank you for the spirit of might, Father, to come into this place, into this ministry in Jesus name hallelujah.

Sonja: You know we talk about, and I've heard this years, for years, and I do it, you have to stir yourself up in the Holy Ghost. You have to stir yourself up. You've got to, you got to stir yourself up by singing, praising, speaking psalms to yourself, speaking the Word of the Lord over your life and over the situation, and stirring yourself up, stirring yourself up, let that faith in your heart rise. You know, I was listening to a minister this morning on TV as I was leaving the house, and I heard him say, you know, God, it says that if you have faith, as a mustard seed, you can ask what you want. He don't need a lot. He just needs you to get in agreement with him. A Mustard Seed is tiny. You can say, into this mountain, Be thou removed and be thou cast into the sea. He's talking about the problems or whatever standing in your way. So Father, we let faith arise in us as we stir ourselves up in the Holy Ghost this morning in your presence, Lord. And we Thank you, Father, Faith trumps over fear in Jesus name.

 

Sheila : So I don't know what's needed, But I keep here in higher frequency, higher frequency.

 

Ruth Ann : We got to move up in our faith. We got to come up in our frequency. You cannot stay low. Okay, we got we, God's been pushing us since last Sunday to break through to a higher sound, I do not know what it is, but we are going there. We're going there. So let me tell you this. I started telling the horse stories this morning, and when you have victory, you don't know how many lives you're going to change by your victory. You gotta think about that. Okay, so let me go back to another horse story. I got a book from the Heritage sale in Oklahoma City, and we had earned enough money with our horses to buy a really, really good horse. And I got the book, and I went before the Father now, and I said, Which horse. I said, Which horse, and he gave me the number, and I prayed over that horse, and prayed over that horse. And when I got there, I took my trainer immediately to the stall to look at the horse, because that's the one that God told me to purchase. And he said, Ruth Ann she won't make it. She's got a bad knee, and she won't make it. I can't hold her together. I said, I looked at him. His name was Charlie. And I said, Charlie, I've seen you run horses with bad knees and you can hold her together. He said, Ruth Ann , I can't promise this one, I can do it, but I can't promise this one. He said, Buy her and make her a broodmare. And I said, that's not what God told me.

 

Ruth Ann : He said buy her , and I got it for a cheap price, and I bought the other horse. He picked out that one that he thought was really gonna race, and this horse did really good for us. But let's go back to my other one. She finished, she ran out so much money, the three years I ran her that she was seventh in the nation. We took her to California to run the champion of champions, and she finished seventh that year. She didn't win it, that was only the only race she lost. But I want to tell you what, every time she came down the track, this leg went out, and she never broke down. This leg went out. You can see it. I've got videos where she never ran straight on that front leg, but she outran everything he put her against because of her heart. Her heart was there, and her heart was for victory, and she knew she was winning. She knew she was victorious, and God held her together because Charlie told me he couldn't do it. Now, after she did all that, I received a letter. The letter came from a man that I purchased her from. This man was the founder of a major restaurant chain. If said it, you would know it immediately. He told me in the letter he wanted to thank me, he said he doesn't know how I did it, because that was the first mare out of the stud that he was trying to invest money and to build a breeding operation, and he thought he was failing. And when she did what she did, it made his studs name. Not only did she win for me, she won for him. So what I did with my faith not only affected me, and he has still got one of the leading operations in horses today. Not just then, it continued. It hasn't stopped for him. I see him in all the news articles and all the magazines, but he wrote me a letter thanking me for not stopping.

 

Judah Team: I’ll never stop moving up , don't stop, moving up, breaking through. We're breaking through.

 

Ruth Ann: So Father God, we're warriors. We're not stoppers. We're warriors. We war. We come before your throne in warfare, in warfare, to war with you. We come before your throne and we bow before you, our hands out for you to fill us with our assignments. And what you're facing, what you're facing, remember, God wants you to take down that giant. So come before Him and receive because it's all about receiving crowns. What Rakha said earlier, it's all about overcoming. He who overcomes receives crowns. It's all about the crowns. So Father, we come and we come and we come and we hold out our hands and we come before your throne with our shield, with our armor, we come before our Throne. Some of you are bringing arrows in your backpack. Some of you have swords, some of you have knives, some of you have weapons, some of you have the weapon. Those are the weapons that you're to release with your voice and God says, come before me and bow and war, because I'm your commander in chief. Come before me and bow for your strategy, because I'm the commander in chief. I see there's smoke and incense around the Father's throne. There's incense of prayers that have been prayed. There's incense of travail. I hear travail around his throne. There's incense that's coming up around his throne. And he said, there's the travail. Is not travail of sorrow. It's travail of birthing that's coming around his throne. It's a travail of birthing that's around his throne. It's opening portals. And so Father, you told me last week, and I come back to this week, you told me to open your portal here and set your fresh altar, a new fresh altar for you to bring you to a new place here. A new altar. An altar Father God of greater Victory, an altar of overcoming.

 

Judah Team: Let your glory rise. Let the smoke rise from the fire from the altar. Let the smoke rise. Let your glory rise. Let the smoke rise from the altar. Cover us. Lord, cover us. Oh. Let your smoke rise. Let your sound rise. Let Your glory rise over us. Let you smoke rise and the seraphim cried holy, and the seraphim cried holy. Yes, the seraphim cried holy. Holy Are you Lord. And the seraphim cried holy ,. The seraphim cried holy. Seraphim cried holy. Holy are you Lord. And the fire burns hot and the smoke rises up, and the foundation shake, and the move of the Lord comes in. And the fire burns hot, and the smoke comes in and the foundation shake the glory it comes in, and we cry holy. We cry holy we cry holy. Take the fire, the coal from the fire, and touch our lips. Lord, take the coal from the fire and touch our lips. We cry holy. We cry holy. And the fire burns hot, and the smoke comes in, the foundation shake, the glory fills the earth. The fire comes hot, then the smoke comes in, in the foundation shake, your glory comes in. We cry holy.

 

Rakha: I had a conversation with somebody this week about praying. They were like, how do you pray? I just, I don't know how to pray. And I said, Well, when you're going through a grocery store when you go grocery shopping, how do you know what to buy? How do you know what you're gonna get? Well, I do. I you know. I know what I'm gonna cook, so I know what the ingredients are, so I'll just go through and get the ingredients, and that's what I do. I said, Well, prayer is something similar to that. You know what you need, what's going on in your life, you know what you need in your life. So put those needs, see those needs as your prayer, and put them in the Lord's shopping cart. And so as I don't know why I was rehashing that, but when I was doing that, I saw myself reaching up real high, and I'm short anyways, and so I was reaching up and trying to get some of the things that I needed and to put in my shopping cart. But everything that I need is, like, on the top shelf, and, you know, sometimes you have to have help getting those things. So I'm reaching up there and putting all this stuff in the Lord's shopping cart, and I go to the checkout line, and I open my wallet, and in my wallet contains the Lord's currency. And it's funny because I saw an EBT card in there, and he said, Don't beg. Do not beg. As a matter of fact, throw that EBT card away. So I'm paying with the Lord's currency, faith. So I thank you for the revelation, Lord.

 

Ruth Ann: So make God your source, now. He's your whole source. He's everything. This is exactly what Keith Pierce said this morning. I said, Throw these EBT cards away. You become into God's source. You come to the church and the church and the church. Let God restructure your thoughts. Cry holy unto him. Cry holy unto him, and let the travail of the prayers come up around you, come up around you. Let them be your source. Let them birth this new thing for you. Let the travail birth it for you. Just reach out and touch the Lord. Let him touch you. Let him just be a part of you and let the birthing process, because when he comes, he shakes a foundation. So Let him, let him shake you. Let him shake a foundation in you that you can birth where he wants you to be, in another place, in a new place.

 

Ruth Ann : We're going to pray over ourselves, and then we're going to declare victory. We're going to declare, you know, you just may have to go to your house, and you may have to say, Okay, Lord Jesus, anywhere that I have agreed negatively with somebody in this house, I break it. It cannot rule here. Y Anywhere that I have made any type of agreement that's negative, okay, I come out of it. So I want you to say over yourself.

Ruth Ann: I declare that heaven, God's heaven, is pulling me into a higher perspective, with greater clarity that my mind, my spirit and my destiny come into alignment with Jesus Christ. Let's do that one again. I declare that God's heaven is pulling me into a greater destiny, into a higher perspective and greater clarity my mind, my spirit and My destiny rise into alignment with God's heaven. I renounce every downward cycle in my life, every earthbound limitation in every atmosphere defeat. I rise to the heavenly place that the Lord prepared for me where I receive authority, clarity, purity and supernatural strategy. I decree that I am separated from the low thinking of the world, but I think in God's strategy, I hear the Lord's voice clearly, and the angels of YAHWAH work with me to bring blessings. I come out of every low place, every defeat, every cycle of loss, and every atmosphere failure. Y'all want to do that one again? Yeah, we really do okay. I come out of every low place, every defeat, but you just get rid of your defeats. They're not there. They're not ruling you. Let them go. Every cycle of loss and every atmosphere failure. I purge my camp, my home, my environment, with a purifying fire of the Holy Spirit. Lord, I present everything in me and around me that has suffered defeat to be cleansed by your purifying fire. And I ascend , and I rise from defeat to victory. I step from the low place to the high place, and I receive God's heavenly strategy, and I restore myself to God's authority that I walk in victory. So Father, I close every doorway to the enemy. The enemy has no power to legislate in my life, even through my closest friend or my closest family. So I declare today the LORD has turned my defeat to victory, and I ascend into his strategy for me, and I received the victory that God intended me to have.

 

Ruth Ann: I want you to leave here with the mindset not to be defeated. You got to think differently, and you got to start with your own thinking pattern. You got to start with where you think okay and you cannot agree. I don't care what the world tells you Okay. When they wrote the word fragile over my medical records because of my back, I never agreed with it, and I never allowed and I would tell you now I wouldn't tell you then I would tell you now, because I'm over that point. Because, but did I tell people back then, absolutely not, because I didn't want their negativity over me. I didn't want a negative agreement in my environment.

 

Sonja: Hallelujah. Amen. Father, I just thank you for today, Lord. I thank you that we have the victory. Father, I thank you that we wear the crowns of victory. We are clothed in righteousness, Father, we are your sons and daughters, kings and priests of the Most High God. And I, thank you, Father, the V, I, C, T, O, R, Y, victory is our cry. It is our decree. It is our declaration, and we walk in it, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Sheila: Don't stop at the beat, it's in the beat. Yay! Rakha: So when the service started, I heard Sonja prophesying, and what I heard was when saying prayer or giving the Lord praise instead of just speaking it out. The Lord wants us to get into His rhythm. The Lord wants us to start singing the praises, singing the prayers, and if you're sitting there thinking, well, I don't know how to do that, I don't have any kind of rhythm or any kind of way of knowing how to do that. Listen to your heartbeat. Your heartbeat is the same heartbeat that Jesus had, is the same heartbeat that the Lord has given to us, so we all have that heartbeat of the Lord. So listen to your heartbeat, and however your heart is beating is the rhythm of what, how you're supposed to sing, how you're supposed to pray, how you're supposed to praise him. Rakha: Another thing that I heard was Armenia. There is a planned attack on Armenia, and I don't know if it's a state, I don't know if Armenia is a country, I don't know if it's whatever it is, but intercessors need to pray for the people of Armenia JT Sheila: Here we go, here we go, here we go, moving in, here we go, moving in, here we go, here we go, moving in, pressing in, pressing deeper, going deep. We're going higher, we've never been. How deep do you want to go in him? How deep do we want to go in Him? Is there anything deeper than pressing for the heartbeat of God? Going deeper, going deeper. Ruth Ann: So, Father, we just come with you, we just go with you, wherever you need to give you, take us there, take us deeper, take us much, much, much deeper in your glory. Let's come to you, Lord, that's what he wants us to do. He wants us in his rhythm, his rhythm. Let yourself come to his rhythm. Ruth Ann: So, Armenia, let me answer that. The Armenian people are talked about in the Bible, but it was the first nation to officially adopt Christianity as its state or its national religion in 301 AD, but actually as a trade route between Iran and Russia. It's a trade route, a land trade route, not a water trade route. Is a land trade route between Iran and Russia goes to Romania. That's significant. Sonja: So, Father, right now, in the name of Yeshua Hamashia, in the name of Jesus, Father, I lift up the Christians and the innocent in Armenia, don't say it correctly. Armenia. In the name of Jesus, Father, I just thank you for your divine protection over them. I thank you for the shield of faith that surround them, and I thank you, Father, for the fire of Holy Spirit that surrounds them, and the blood of Jesus that covers them, in the name of Jesus. JT Sheila: We release your heartbeat, release your heartbeat, release your heartbeat. Rakha: The Lord's really highlighting heartbeats today, and so what I saw was I saw a gentleman sitting down, and I saw the doctor taking his stethoscope and listening to his heart. So if you're 6 ft 4 in and you are part of this ministry, or if you're listening or watching this program, you need to go have your heart checked. Six four is the number. If you are six foot tall, six foot four inches tall, go have your heart check. Sheila : I can almost hear the love dub in the, in the drum beat. Ruth Ann: Every time we get to that that beat right there, where Rakha is right there and where you just went, I've been seeing angels in a rhythm, in a rhythm of that beat. I keep going to this word from Chuck Pierce over Mississippi, it is from August the 26th 2010 It was at the Mississippi Burning Conference, in 2010. This is a very profound word and it caused much over the state of Mississippi. Ruth Ann: He says: It's about a two page prophecy, but I'm going to a part of it. It says first state Chuck drew after the vision he had in May 2028 was Mississippi, because it was so unique. Now, if you don't know what I'm talking :about, God took Chuck to all 50 states in a vision, and he showed Chuck all 50 states in a vision, and Mississippi was the first one he drew out after the vision of the 50 states, and he says the spirit of God is taking us to the next level. We're divine connectors between heaven and earth for our land. A gold fiery river ran through each state. The gold fiery river is the tribute reserve. Every state has one, and they have to be activated by May 2011. Okay, that was 2011. He saw fiery hubs that looked like castles, and every state had a fiery hub, and throughout Mississippi. Y'all will be surprised where the fiery hub is. A state that was in covenant also had to be a state that had staked the land, complete prayed completely around their land, and yet apostles and prophets that are aligned watching for the spirit of God to come. Mississippi looked like a hub of glory, but it also looked like a spider's web. It had a tremendous connection to what God wanted to do. It had a place where visitation could come. It was almost like Ezekiel saw when he saw the wheel turning, Mississippi was centered to determine how things turned in the future. It also had eight smaller networks working out of the center place. It was coming as if out of Jackson. There was going to be a moving God that produced a river that would start the wheel turning in the state, except it also looked like a spider's web. The spider's web is the strongest substance, is stronger than steel. It looks strange. It doesn't look just like a wheel that can turn, it looks like a web, a network that should also capture the future of creation. Ruth Ann: So, what I keep seeing is we're doing this beat, and we're in a heartbeat rhythm. It is a heartbeat rhythm. What I see, and I didn't understand this until I looked it up, and what I'm seeing is Ezekiel 1:22 spread out above the heads of the living creatures was something that looked like a vault sparkling like crystal and awesome, so in Ezekiel's vision of God's throne he sees the four living creatures with the magnificent expanse or vault above them, and it looks like crystal, and he keeps calling this vault a firmament, but what I see as the beat is going on, this crystal in this firmament is raining down and it is hitting this spider web, and I looked up how large pieces of crystal, how much they can weigh, and they can weigh anywhere from 20 pounds to 1000s of pounds, and I see it hitting the spider webs over Mississippi, and it's weighing it down and breaking it, and it's weighing it down and breaking it. So Mississippi is no longer captured in a web, it's weighing it down and breaking it. So, Father, we come into your rhythm, into your beat, that everywhere we have been captured in a web, we can come out of that web, that web that is holding us and holding our state, and even it says Mississippi can hold a nation with this web is breaking as we come into a beat with you, into a rhythm with you, Father God. We come above and we break out of the strands of web that is holding us, and we come above it, and we come to a glory, Father God. So, Father God, let your fiery hug come up, let your fire come here, Father God. As Philadelphia breaks out of this web, as Neshoba County comes out of this web, Father God, because this place, there was eight places known for the hubs of Mississippi, and this is one of them. Ruth Ann: So, Father God, today we say this place, our place, this place, Global Vision, you are no longer overtaken with the web of the spider, but you come above it into God's glory. We say, Glory, come, come, let the crystal expanse fall here to the point, Father God, that it breaks the web and it brings your glory. It brings your glory here, Father God. So let the fire, let your fire fall, and let your glory come, and let your fire fall, and let your glory come. Rakha: So the whole purpose of the spider web is to capture, capture whatever the spider is going to eat, but also in with the Native Americans, not only do they have, you know, we have spiders are everywhere, of course, but for Native Americans they have a dream catcher. If you look at the inside of that dream catcher, it does resemble a spider web, but what we have learned is the meaning, or the intent for the dream weaver is to capture dreams, capture bad dreams. However, what I'm seeing, or what the vision that I've seen, is that Dreamcatcher is a web for all dreams, and our dreams sometimes are messages from the Lord, and we definitely don't want those captured by any means. Our message from the Lord has to be released. So, Heavenly Father, this dream catcher, this web that has been laid upon the Native American community, my brothers and sisters from the north, south, and east, and west. Heavenly Father, we just break that off. We come out from under that dream, that dream catcher. We no longer allow that dream catcher to capture our dreams, the dreams that you have downloaded into us. Heavenly Father, we are missing. We have missed a lot of what we should, could, and be become because of this dream catcher that has been waited over us. Heavenly Father, I just see it over, over the people, and we just break it off. We break it off. We say, dream catcher, you are no longer going to catch our dreams. The crystals are going to I see them coming down, I see the dream catcher laying flat, but I see those crystals coming down, and the sharp pointiness is breaking those threads. So, Heavenly Father, we just thank you for this in Jesus' name. Ruth Ann: Father God, with the people of this land, miss your warnings, because the dream didn't come through, Father God, send the dreams back, send the dreams back to get everyone here, get the government, get the people on the right track. Father, get the finances on the right track, get the people back in the right track. Release your dreams back, Father. JT Sheila: We release your heartbeat, we release the frequency, the disruptor of the web of the enemy. We release your heartbeat, we release your frequency, Lord. It's a disruptor of the web of the enemy. We release your heartbeat, we release your frequency. We release your heartbeat, we release your frequency, Lord, you're the disruptor of the web of the enemy. The strands are breaking, they're dissolving. We release your frequency. No more capture, no more capturing by the enemy. Once we release your sound, we call on your wind to carry it everywhere it needs to be. As we release your sound and your frequency, we call your wind to carry it everywhere it needs to be. The disrupter of the web of the enemy, you are the disrupter of the web of the enemy. Oh, I see the lines of the web, they're popping, they're popping, they're breaking, floating in the air. No more strength, Lord as the web is being taken down, we call for your glory. Just line up in its place, Lord, that space is being emptied. Now we're calling all your presence, your glory, your heartbeat in that place. Sonja : In the name of Jesus, anywhere a politician, a government official has been caught in the web of the internet through false accusations, lies, manipulation, control, allegations. In the name of Jesus, I command them to be released where they've been captured on the web. I command them to be released now in Jesus' name, and I decree and declare the only thing that can be caught in the web, is the enemy in Jesus' name Sonja: And, Father, right now, in the name of Jesus, where the Black Widow has been released on the web to pour out poison and lies, accusations, entrapments. May that poison return back to the Black Widow and destroy this evil, evil spider. Where those have been called in the web of death and destruction, death of reputation, death of finances in the web. I command them to be released now in Jesus' name. In the name of Jesus, where this web has been over the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indian Nation, and had captured truth, prosperity, health, progress in the name of Jesus. I command it to be released now into the hands of God, and I decree and declare that they will fulfill their destiny and their purpose in Jesus' name. In the name of Jesus, where minds have been caught on the web of the internet programming, I command that to be released now, in Jesus' name. It comes up, out, and off of minds in Jesus name. Where not reality, but the reality of the enemy has been caught on the web, programmed into the minds of children, young adults, older adults, mankind, I command them to be released now in Jesus' name. And, Father, right now, in the name of Jesus, I know that technology has increased, and AI is doing its thing, but Father, you said I AM . It's not AI. We don't get information from AI, we get information truth from I AM, and that is you , Lord, in Jesus' name. Judah Team sang Native Warrior Sonja: Father, I thank you right now for the blood of Jesus. Father, I thank you for the heartbeat of our Father. Father, just as the body has many vessels and many arteries and very all different pathways, Father, within the human body, the heart pumps the blood, and it pumps it out. I thank you, Father, that your heartbeat is pumping today through the ecclesia, and through each and every one of us, clear in the pathways with pure oxygen, your pure breath flowing through our veins and our arteries. Father, we worship you. We honor you, Lord. Father, we just thank you for your glory. We thank you for your presence. We thank you for the transitions, there's been so many shifts today in various levels, and so, Father, we thank you for those shifts. We thank you for revelation, for discernment. We thank you for your fire, and we thank you, Father God, for the teaching that's going to come, and we give you all the honor and all the glory in Jesus' name. Amen.  Ruth Ann: So when you started prophesying Sonja, first thing, he told me he says the glory is going to rain day down like a crystal river. I didn't understand that. How can glory come like a crystal river? Because I'm thinking crystal, you know, can be heavy. I couldn't place it in a river, but it's interesting how he was already. Now, sometimes we misinterpret the glory. Okay, because glory is when God moves. It's not necessarily that you get this ooey gooey feeling all the time. Is when he moves, it's when he gives words, it's when he takes you to a new level, a new thought pattern, a new place. Glory is anything He promised you. So, if He promised you to overcome something, that's glory. If He promised you to have victory somewhere, that's glory. Okay, if you're a business person and you do something new and you make money at it, or wealth or new wealth comes in, that's glory. Does anybody get what I'm saying? See, we try to make glory just a feeling, and it's not just a feeling, it's everything he does that's pretty cool, right? And when he starts saying, I'm going to rain down, then I start saying, okay, God, where are you coming, and how are you coming? It could be just a revelation that's released in a word to you that you never dreamed about, that's glory, that puts you in a path that you never thought you would be on, that's glory. Is everybody get what I'm saying? So receive his glory, because he wanted to release it today, but he wants to release it in a heavy way, a heavy way. Okay, and so accept what he's releasing. Ruth Ann: Now we're talking about decisions, and there was like but let me talk about what we're going to talk about. There was some decisions made yesterday, and I'm gonna show you the points the decisions were made at. Okay, so the Belmont ran yesterday, it was 158 Belmont. There was only nine entries in this race, so we've gone from 22 horses in the Kentucky Derby now to finish out the Triple Crown. We're at nine horses remaining. So Golden Tempo, who ran the Kentucky Derby, came from the ninth position. Okay, basically, and he went off at odds of nine to two. They did not think he could win the race. People were actually saying they didn't believe he could win the race, Golden Tempo. So, he was being bet against to win the race, not to win the race, that's right. His trainer was Sherry Devo. She was the first woman to win the Kentucky Derby. Now she's the first woman to win the Belmont. Okay, the jockey is Gilbert Ortiz, who is a professing Christian, along with his brother, who he ran against again yesterday, are both professing Christians. Gilbert Ortiz won the Belmont in 2017 on Tapwire. Now, there's a lot you can prophesy that I have not prophesied. Tapwire can prophesy. He's already won multiple Eclipse awards for his riding, and he's one of the most successful jockeys in North America. Okay, now this is very interesting, and I did not bring this up during the Derby, but I'm gonna bring this up in the here. Ruth Ann: Golden Tempo is owned by Phipps, P H I P P S Stable, and Saint Elias Stables, but here's the thing about it. The Phipps family is historic in horse racing. It's not their first time, they just didn't suddenly, their family lineage has been racing for over 100 years in North America. So this is really saying something, and they have Golden Tempo, is not their first champion, Personal Enzyme, Easy Goer, Inside Information are all multiple champions this family has produced. So God is going back to legacy, that's real important here. God is talking about legacy. Okay, he's going back to families, and he's going back to inheritances, and he's going to pull that forward, and he's going back to redeem them. So basically, this race is saying the Kentucky Derby said it, and now Belmont said it. God is, and it's that's what He did. Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, He created the family, and Adam and Eve, and He meant them to be successful throughout the earth. He did not mean them to fall to Satan. So he's going back for redemption now. Ruth Ann: There's some very important names of horses in this race: Power Shift, Renegade, Growth Equity, Commandment, Emerging Market, and of course, Golden Tempo, and for you people that don't know it, President Trump is now has gold lights on the White House, and they're shining there now to say we've entered the Golden Age of America. What's a golden age? Now we don't want to go to an empire, and we're fighting the empire spirit. You don't want an empire. An empire is when someone is in control. You want a Golden Age, that's when everybody prospers. That's prosperity released to the people without control of a ruling dominating leader. Okay, I get what I'm saying. There's a difference in a Golden Age to an empire, but these, these are very, very significant names, and I want you to keep up with them. Okay, I have not been able to find anything on Chief Wallaby, but I think he's significant. Ruth Ann: Okay, the distance is one and a fourth miles, because each one of these gets longer. The time they raced in was two minutes and three seconds. It was at Saratoga, but now this is very interesting. Hold on to Saratoga. Let me come back to that. So, basically, the trainer grew up in Saratoga, and this is where she got her start. So, she came back. Very important, God's going to take you back to where you need to be. She came back to where she got her start. Okay, very important. So, if God tells you to go back, go back, that's very important. Wherever He tells you to go back to it's time, because she was sent back to where she started. Ruth Ann: Okay, here's some things you've got to understand that happened in this race. Okay, what happened to Golden Tempo? He stumbled at the start. He was bumped. His rider had to pull him up, had to take him in out of position and move him into a new position and steady him, and he had to force wide. The rider literally, I'm gonna show you every decision in this. Okay, now every time something like this happens, when the horse stumbles, there is a decision. Do you slow him down to see if something's wrong, or do you pull it? You do you keep him pushing him to go. Every time a bump happens in a race, it could be called as a foul. Okay, do you keep bumping, or what? Do you do there is a decision. When he checked his horse, that means he actually pulled the horse back in one part of the race. He slowed him down. Okay, that's a decision. Do you think you're still gonna win it if you slow your horse down? He steadied the horse. In other words, he didn't let him go faster. He just kept him at a steady pace. And then he forced his opponent wide. This is real important. He forced his opponent wide when the horse that was boxing him in, he forced the horse not to box him in, without hitting the horse. He kept forcing the one that was boxing him in. See, this is a decision, and this is what I'm talking about today. So, basically, that's five decisions he made in two minutes. Five decisions to win this race was made in two minutes, and it changed any one of those decisions. Could have cost him. Don't get what I'm saying. Any one of those decisions could have changed the race. Five decisions. In two minutes, Grace five is grace. God's giving us grace. Ruth Ann: Golden, we talked about this represents glory, refinement, purity, and God's purpose. Tempo represents rhythm, and what was all we talking about this morning? God's glory and rhythm, the rhythm, and that's what God is saying, His glory, and get into his rhythm. Okay, very important. We've got to get into his rhythm of doing things. We cannot let somebody else that doesn't understand what's going on make the decision for you. You got to get out there and check the Bible, first Bible, you go there. Next place, go to the prophets, go to the prophets that are proven. Don't go to any prophet, go to proven prophets. Don't know what's going on around you. Listen to the Bible first, then prophets that are proven. And get into the rhythm of God. You got to find out what God is doing. Number nine is associated with fruitfulness and finality. Finality, the end of something, the end of something that is bad. The end of something is the completion of a cycle. You know, when America goes into the golden age, we're talking about financing the glory of God, that's different. Finality of the enemy, the fruit of the spirit, and Jesus died at the ninth hour, so none often points to the mature work of God that comes to completion, that's huge, the material work of God coming to completion. Prophetically America may be entering a season where years of testing is going to produce fruit. Did you hear what I just said. America can, if we make the right decisions, enter into a season where years of testing will produce fruit. Ruth Ann: So, basically, what do these stories resemble? What about Joseph? Joseph had every decision before him. Does he react to Potiphar's wife this way or that way? What's his decision? How does he react in prison, hateful or does he work with them? Every decision got him to the king's palace. Every decision he could have made, any decision along the way that kept him away from the king's palace. What about David? We just talked about David. What was his decision? You're speaking against my covenant; therefore, I can defeat you. David could have backed up and trembled with Israel and came into their offense. Decision. Then you have Israel themselves. What did they do? Their decision in the wilderness cost them to stay in the wilderness and lose a generation. One decision, that's what they made. Okay, so see, I've got to remember in my covenant, no weapon formed against me will prosper. Sometimes I go to my chair, and I say, God, and what we doing about this one? Just a question, I asked my question, what do we do? I'm in covenant, what am I supposed to do? Ruth Ann: Okay, so the ownership connections is a long-established race racing family. What does that mean? That means they have stewarded for it to go over 100 years. Every generation has stewarded what the generations were building. One generation didn't take it and say I'm just going to tear it down and live high and mighty. Every generation for it to last over 100 years took up the purpose and stewarded an increase, because you would have to increase it. Do you see what I'm saying? So this operation is not something that's fly by night, it's one that each generation was taught stewardship. Let me say, you have to teach stewardship to one generation to the other. They were not past offense. I can't pass my offenses to teach somebody stewardship. Because I can catch, I can capture somebody, and what I'm offended over.. So that means generational faithfulness, inheritance preserved and promises passed down. This is what God is saying in this race. Ruth Ann : So the next generation is beginning to reap what previous generations sown, but we have to keep stewarding what they sowed and keep reaping it. That's so important, and I'm not going to pass my offense down. I'm not teaching my offense. I'm teaching you how to steward. There's a difference. I'm teaching you how to increase money. I'm in teaching you how to increase wealth. So, if you go to Secretariat, and I won't say this, but if you go to Secretariat and you watch the movie closely, by the way, Otto Thorpe is going to be with us at the fair this year. The jockey in the movie, I get his name, he answers what I call him. Okay, so basically, if you go to that movie and you watch that movie, number one, Secretariat's owner was inheriting the generational farm that had been there, she had to steward it. She inherited the agreement that her father had made concerning the colts, which one he would get and which one his partner would get. She's stewarding all of that, and she takes up and she studies all the paperwork her father had done. It's in the movie, whether they explain it to you or not. She studies in detail everything that had been done, and she realizes from the paperwork which one's the best horse. She realizes from everything written in the papers which one is going to be the best horse, and she knows that the other man is going to want the other horse, and she wants to lose that corn toss, because she knows from everything she studied, she studied the generational way of operating, she studied everything on the books. She knew everything that's stewarding, and she knew what she had. If she got Secretariat, and everybody thought they had pulled the wool over her eyes, but she knew better, because she had studied in depth. She knew what she had, and then she went to develop it. See, you don't just develop a horse in an hour, it takes three years to get him to a racetrack. She had to steward that horse for three years to get him there. She's waiting three years to make her money back. Y'all get it. She knew what she had. If we would just look and saw where our generations failed. If we would just be honest, where did they pass me some offense that I'm still carrying that I can't go forward for? She studied everything her dad did wrong, and everything he did right. She knew it. Go to the part of the movie and get to the part of the movie where she's digging through the library and just watch that part of the movie. If I had not been in horses and understood the study, it takes to develop a horse. People think you just go out and do it. No, I understand the hours of study it is to develop a champion. I've seen it done, and I've been a part of it, and I still have stacks of papers I don't get rid of that. It's literally that high from the floor up in those volumes of papers of what it takes to make a champion horse, and I saw a man by the name of Mr. Jay Pumphrey, who was president of the American Quarter. He also developed horses for the Russian army and Was that good? Develop champion Kentucky Derby winner after Kentucky Derby winner but got his all on paper before the horse ever existed. That's amazing, is it not? Ruth Ann: The purse they ran for 2 million was for 2 million, so two represents the witness and the testimony. So we're going to have the witness and the testimony and the agreement at the mouth of two witnesses. It shall be established, and we're in the time of speaking 2 the mouth of two witnesses. There's a whole lot more. This was the last Belmont at Saratoga. This means transition, that means America is also transitioning, and it will go back. The Belmont will return to Belmont, New York. Okay, so this was the last time it ran at Saratoga while they are rebuilding Belmont. Okay, so it's a transition. So we are in, and our nation is in a transition. We can either transition into the Golden Age or we can transition into an empire, and we're at that point, and we've got to make the right decision to go into the golden age, and some people are wanting to capture us in an empire, and we don't want to live in an empire, we want to live in a golden age. Ruth Ann: Now, it's very important. Every horse that was running first at one point in time, Power Shift, Emerging Market, Golden Equity. You need all of that. You need every bit of that to create a correct mark, you need that to create the financial base. Every horse that was leading at one point was speaking of a financial base, Power Shift, Golden Equity, and Emerging Markets. Y'all understand that that's pretty important on what God is saying there, because God is doing this financial thing to shift our nation, y'all understand what I'm saying, and you're going to see shifts in the nation that you don't expect, you're going to see the tax structure shift, you're going to see lots of shifts coming in the next, especially in 27 okay, and the prophets have been telling us 2027 2027 that's when we see that shift. Okay, so this race is prophesying it. The other thing, the horse that ran second is Commandment. We're going to have to follow God's commandments to live in the golden age. God's commandments will be the root of it. So you have Golden Tempo, which is gold, purity, glory, and you have the rhythm of God, and you have commandments. We're going to have to come back and live in God's commandments to live where God wants us. That's huge, is what it's saying. Ruth Ann: It's very interesting what Golden Tempo ran under. Remember, I told you there were five decisions in two minutes, right? Okay, the first decision was he stumbled out of the gates when the jockey made the decision to keep going. Okay, he could have, you know, backed up to see if his horse, whatever, he made the decision, the horse was fine, and he kept going, but if you will watch this, you can see every decision that was made, and watch the arrow, and he finally comes against his opponent, who opponent who is Commandment, and he keeps going this way, forcing his opponent to keep going. It almost is, yes, except it was Renegade, he ran beside in the Derby, but in Renegade, I will say that again, is the name of some political leader, but we're not, it's a code name with the CIA, but we're not going to talk about that one, but he outran him every time. So they're showing they backed you up to show the five decisions, and they said just one mistake, one thing, they didn't make the right decision, he would have never won. You see how important decisions. So I thought about it when I wrote decisions, I was writing it days before this race, and I thought, okay, God, you are good, because this whole thing is about decisions, and I want you to look at the sky. This is at the end of the race, and people are walking on the tracks, they'll have golden tempo to come out there. Will see him come across the track where they're taking him to the Winter Circle, and I want you to see what was in the sky. It's a rainbow in the sky. The whole Belmont was run under a rainbow, God's promise. Ruth Ann : So, Father God, we just thank you for decisions, and we thank you, Father God, that we do just what Peter did, we know that our covenant with you is greater than anything. Father God, as we make decisions, we ask you every time, and when you say come, we come, and when you say stop, we stop, but we rely on you for each and every decision, and we thank you, Father God, that we make the decision to live in your glory and not captured by the enemy. Father, we thank you that we understand the decision that's before the whole world right now. Where are we? And we make the decision for glory, Father, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

053126 Father God’s Way is Better Keywords Worship, repentance, idols, altar, fresh fire, heart, temple, inner healing, spiritual well-being, emotional well-being, physical well-being, stewardship, warrior, victory, perspective. Ruth Ann: So Father, we worship you today, and Father God, anything that we put in our heart that became an idol, whether it's our own problems, every problem we put ahead of you, and every problem we tried to figure out without asking you, but we tried to figure it out in our own knowledge and own strength, everything we placed above you, Father, we repent and we put you back in our heart. Ruth Ann: So, Father God, we just ask you, we just ask you to come burn today, Father God, as we cleanse our heart of all idols, and I don't see idols like we're I'm not seeing that I'm seeing like I got to get this done I got to get that done I got to do. So we just worship you, Father. We just worship you, Lord Jesus. We exalt you, Father. We worship you. Yes, Father God, you're everlasting. You are holy. You're mighty. JT Sheila: Bring your fresh fire, Lord. Let us be the altar, laying on the altar of the Lord. Ruth Ann: Ezekiel 14:3 says: these men have set up their idols in their hearts and put them that which causes them to stumble into iniquity. So in this verse the word idol does not mean something made of wood, stone, or metal, it means our thought patterns, it means our beliefs, we can't put wood, stone, and hay, and our metal in our heart, but we can put our beliefs in our heart. And then Ezekiel 14:4 goes on to say : everyone of the house of Israel has set up idols in their heart, here the idol is something that's taken God's affection in your life. So. Father, when we put idols in our heart, our busyness, if it's what we got to do, if it's our to-do list, if it's our problem. If we put it before you, Father, Father God, we lay our idols down today. We come before you, Father God, in everything that we put in the place of you in our heart, where you're not first, we lay it down, and we ask you to burn it. We ask you to burn it, that we can come back to your altar, your altar to seek you, Father God, your altar to worship you, and hear what you tell us about what's going on in your heart, not our heart, but your heart. Ruth Ann: Don't know why I hear it this way, but even what we okay, God, I'm gonna say it like you said it. You said even what we call a tragedy, and we put it in our heart, whether it broke our heart, how bad it broke our heart, Father God, whatever it was that we called a tragedy in our life that broke our heart, and we put it before you, Father God, we take it out of our heart, we put it down, we put it down, we let you burn it, we let you burn it. Ruth Ann: Today, Father, we want to hear your heart, your heartbeat, your rhythm. We want to come in rhythm with you, Father, and know who you are in a way we've never known you today. I have been looking for days, and if anybody finds it, I'm still looking for it, because God is bringing this to me. There is a Kim Clement prophecy where he says in September, September, how things will change, but he never said what year, but in that prophecy he says that God is coming closer, he's going to break another veil with man and come closer, so God, we're getting ready for you to come closer. We're putting our things out of our heart down, so we can come into a place with you that we've never been, that we've never been, where we can surrender in a place to you we never have, and we can step behind the veil with you, Father. Sheila: Okay, so you're saying that, and you can correct me. I'm kind of processing this at the moment, but this morning I was reading, and I don't even remember which of the Old Testament books, prophets, it was. It was where God brought the word of Lord to them, and they were bringing it to Jerusalem, and it was one of those that was about, like, four chapters, and in it, God is saying, you're living in your homes, but you're not repairing my temple, so that's why everything's being devoured, you're doing your own thing over here, and you're not taking care of my stuff, and if you will come and rebuild my temple, basically he's saying, see how you will be blessed, see how what you bring will be multiplied instead of devoured. And so that was going through my mind, and even before Ruth Ann just said that I was like, okay, so we don't have, so we are the temple now, right, there's no temple that we have this place, and I think ministries, it's important when we're doing the garden at God's commands, that stuff's important, but we are the temple now. So I was just kind of asking, Lord, so what's that mean? When what are we, the devouring comes when we. so from what Ruth Ann, here's what I'm taking from that, is when we're allowing this stuff in our heart, just like she said, we're allowed, we're not taking care of our temple, which is his temple, you know, it says take care of this, this is how people see him on earth, is through us, and so if we're not taking care of us, if we're not dealing with our heart issues, if we're not coming to him and saying burnout, then stuff is being devoured. He intends, he's a God of multiplying, he's a God who created our bodies to heal, so that created our bodies to heal, so that we don't have all the stuff that goes on, and so, if we're not taking care of, and I guess you could take that physically too, if we're not taking care of our temples physically, if we're not taking care of ourselves, cleansing, coming to him, and getting rid of the things that we've allowed in our heart, the traumas, and things that I've read so many things lately on Facebook, and people say, and it broke me, and I'm like, don't say that, don't say it broke you. Maybe God is doing a work, and it's a hard season, but it doesn't break you, it makes you, if you allow Him. Ruth Ann: Referring to Haggai 1:4, it's time for you and yourselves to dwell in your panel house as well. This house lies in ruins. But it goes on to say, after the resurrection of Jesus in First Corinthians 3:16 do you not know that you are God's temple, and that God's spirit dwells in you. And then, First Corinthians 6: 19, it says your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. So, when we're repairing the temple now, we're coming to repentance, we're letting inner healing happen, we're dealing with heart idols, and remember, heart idols are not metal, they're not stone, they're things we placed in our heart. We're caring for your spiritual and emotional and physical well-being. But then it said in First Kings 18:30 and Elijah repaired the altar of the Lord that had been broken down. So, Father God, where we broke your altar, your altar, where we come and we didn't worship you, but we came and we just walked, rolled in our problems, and we didn't worship you at the altar. Father God, where we just let our problems and our heart idols overtake us. Father, we come and repair the altar, Father God of worship with you. We come, Father God, we come. Each is the temple of you, and we repair the altar of our lives when we worship you, Father. When we worship you, Father. And that that we call greater than you, Father God, is no longer greater than you, we see you larger than anything. So, Father, come, Father, come, just come, come. And we're no longer as Elijah said, when are we going to stop going between two opinions, Father, we stop today, and our opinion is you're greater than anything. You're greater than anything. There's no more opinion than about you and your greatness, Father God. You're greater than anything. Ruth Ann: So now just put your heart back on your altar and let God just refill your heart, let Him refill you with Him, and everything that we call pain, just let it come out and just refill it with him. JT Sheila: Are you willing to lay your heart on the altar. Give it all to him. Are you willing to lay your life down? Give it all to him. He's waiting with healing and blessing, he's waiting with his fire and burn it all away, everything that's gotta go. Are you willing to lay it all on the altar? Father, remake us, remake us in you, everything that is compromised is now washed away, burned away. Purify, purify this temple, purify, purify this temple, bring your fire, bring your fire. Maybe we have a picture, an idea of what t he's gonna do even the promise that he's given us. Are you willing to lay that on the altar, so he can bring back everything, even multiply? He will bring back more than we could ever dream. First, lay it down on his altar, there are pieces, pieces of that idea that may be ours and not his. Will you listen, will you listen, will you listen to what he has to say without trying to convince him what he needs to know? We think he needs to know. Will you listen to what he has to say as you lay your life on the altar. Ruth Ann: Part of the process with the Lord at its altar might be removing walls we've built. Part of the process on his altar might be building walls we have let fall down. We have to hear him, listen. But the process, the journey, that's part of that's part of it all, that's your testimony. When we walk through the fire, when we walk through the test, there's a testimony. Ruth Ann: A moment ago, when I was speaking, I'm telling what I was seeing, reading the Bible. I saw a picture, and I saw this being step out with a sickle, and I'm like, "God, what are you showing me? What is that? And I always want to back up what I see with scriptures, not go in there, and so Joel 3:13 reads, Now let the sickle do its work. The harvest is ripe and waiting. Tread the wine presses, for it is full to overflowing with the wickedness of these men. Now I'm going to read that one more time, because I want us to get what it's saying. Now let the sickle do its work. The harvest is ripe and waiting, and tread the wine press, for it is full to overflowing with the wickedness of men. Let me talk a minute. Let me just kind of get you to what God was showing me, and I said, "Lord, what are you talking about? Wickedness? And he told me, "He said, 'I not only harvest the good in the earth, I harvest the wickedness out of the earth, and that's what he's doing in Joel. Now, the scriptures that we often quote about him being Lord of the harvest goes with Matthew 13:30 at harvest time both the wheats and the tares reach the maturity, and they're separated. Everybody good, so we're not going to get that mixed up, because God does harvest the wickedness out of the earth, and this is what he spoke to me. He said, I'm looking for the hearts now that are with me, and I'm seeing the hearts that have become hardened to me. And he says, you're going to see a separation. It is coming, it is coming, it is coming quickly, and I have released the sickle into the earth, because you're going to see the wicked, the wicked be exposed. So, Lord, as we prepare our heart for you, Father God, we prepare our heart. See, Father God, we prepare our heart for you to come, you to come into our heart. But, Father God, we know that there is a sickle in the earth, Father God, that is here, and He says, "I'm harvesting the wickedness for me to be able to come. I said, "Father God, we say yes to what you choose to do. Father God, we say yes for what you choose into the earth, and we do not back up, we do not hold ourselves back, but we go forward with what you're doing in the earth. JT Sheila: Heart of a warrior, we will fight for you, Lord. We will worship, sword in hand. Heart of a warrior, we will fight for you, Lord. We will worship sword in hand. We will not back down. We will not give in heart of a while. Always holds a line. We will not back down. We will not give in. Our God never fails. Oh no, our God never fails, never loses about all, and he never fails. Our God never fails. Oh no, our God never fails. He never loses a butt on. He never fails. He never fails. Never fails with the heart of a warrior fight for you, Lord. We will worship sword in hand. Heart of a warrior, we'll fight for you, Lord. We will worship with sword in hand. Lord, and come change our hearts, purify. We fight with your word, your truth, and your love. We fight with your word, with your truth, and with your love. Purify, purify, purify our hearts right now. Move to new levels. New levels in you. Purify our hearts right now. Our God never fails. Oh no, Lord, you never fail, you never fail, you never lose a battle, and you never will. We already have the victory, you already have the victory in you. We Lord, we fight with you, cause you never fail. We can never fail as we follow you, because you never fail. Lord, we can never fail as we follow you. Ruth Ann: Okay, I just heard it. Somebody, either sitting in this room, or watching, whatever you can is a failure. God says, "Put it out of your heart now. I said, "I consider it wickedness in the heart. He says, "Because I don't fail, you don't fail. He says, "Because I forgive, you're forgiven, you're released. He said, "So put the failure down, don't make it an idol, it's not there, it's forgiven. So release it, get it out of your heart, let him take it, and let him bind it on the altar. Remember, warrior, we're all warriors in Christ. He leads an army. JT Sheila: Never fail, never fail. Oh, he can never leave us or forsake us. He's always there, right beside us. Talk to him, worship him. He'll never leave us or forsake us. He'll never leave us or forsake us. Talk to him and worship him right there, right now, right there, right now. JT Sheila: S ing it along, make a joyful noise, Lord. We praise you. We make a joyful noise. We worship you. Joyful noise, Lord, we praise you. Lord, we worship you. JT Sheila: Our God never fails. God never fails. So we never fail. We fight with him, we walk with him, we worship him, because he never fails, never fails, and he never will. So, look back on those times when you felt it was a fail, and let him talk to you about what he did, about what you gained, about where you are. Let him change your perspective. Let him change your perspective. Give it to him and listen to him. Lord, change our perspective. We want your thoughts. Renew our mind. We want to think like you do. Let us help us think like you do. Judah Team : sings-Your Ways Better Ruth Ann: How many of you go look for something else? Because you just don't think God is doing what He's supposed to be doing sometimes. Yeah, we've all done it at some time or another. At least I could raise my hand, my feet, and everything else, right? Yeah, yeah, that's right. Okay, so I noticed I was thinking about it. Wednesday night we were looking up scripture about our heart and the idols in our heart, and we were reading those scriptures Wednesday night that's come up here this morning. So God is really after the heart thing. It's just interesting, is it not? Okay, because I'm like, Wednesday night we were doing God, we did this Wednesday night, you know, it's like he said, okay, let's dig a little bit deeper and keep going. Ruth Ann: So let's stand and let's just pray a second. Now we're going to do something with our heart right now, if God says there's anything in your heart that you're not stewarding, you're gonna give it to Him, okay? Whatever you're not, whatever you just letting happen to you, you can't let it happen anymore. You know, you go into work and you look like you, things look bad, and it looks like it might be your destruction. You gotta say, God, I'm going to let you destroy my enemies in it, and I will not be destroyed. It's a whole new way of looking at it, right? I will not, not keep on looking at it as my destruction. It will be what my enemies will be destroyed in. Wow, whole new concept, right, whole new concept. So, Father God, we just give to you today the thing that we think is our destruction. We just hand it over to you, Father. And, Father God, we sit in the midst of our enemies, but we know we cannot be destroyed, because we choose today to steward for you, Father. We choose today, Father, to be who you created us to be, and we thank you, Father, for who you are. So just give it to him, just quietly whisper it out, whatever you're giving to him, give it over to him, something you haven't been stewarding. Just commit to him to go home and start taking care of it. Start stewarding, start being the I'm finished letting this go, and just start stewarding it now. Thank you for this Father in the name of Jesus
