We're going to be glad in it. Holy Spirit, we partner with you to stir our hearts up to hear what the Father is saying today. Father, we lay down everything and anything, Father, from yesterday, we lay it down, and Father, we pick up our armor and we put it on. And so, Father, we praise you, we exalt you, and we want to hear from you, we want to hear from heaven. So, Father, we step into that place with you, in the spirit, with you, Holy Spirit. And Father, I thank you for your sound and for your rhythm, for a frequency that's flowing in the atmosphere around us, under us, in us, and Father, we love you. We love you, Jesus, and we love you, Holy Spirit, and we're so thankful for what lies ahead. And so, Father, we praise you, we exalt you, and we lift up the name of Jesus, the name that's above every name. Sonja: Father, I lift up this ministry to you, and every ministry that falls under this umbrella, whether locally or whether broadly, those that are under this ministry, Father, under Ruthann's teaching. Father, I lift them up to you, and I give them to you, Lord. And Father, I praise you for what you're doing. I thank you, Father, for the angels, the army angels, that have been released from heaven today to do war, to bring justice, to bring clarity, and to push the enemy out of the way. I thank you, Father, for the angels that have been released from Gabriel's quarters to bring peace, enlightenment. Father, I thank you that we walk in the light of Jesus. We are light beings, walking in your light, walking in your truth, Father. Father, I thank you for the exposure that's happening across this land, across this region, across our nation and the nations. Father, I thank you for justice. I hear the Lord say, "Justice will be served, and so, Father, I thank you for the justice that's being served, and I thank you, Father God, that no weapon formed against this ministry, against any of us, against this region, and against this nation will prosper in Jesus' name. We declare, I declare, prosperity, spirit, soul, and body to this region, to our nation, Father, I thank you right now for justice. I just keep hearing, justice will be served. Sonja: Justice will be served, and so Father, I thank you that it's being served now. Lord, I thank you for the angels. I see the angels of the Lord going with papers, serving notice, serving notice. So Father, I thank you that those notices and those papers and those documents that's being delivered will bring much, much understanding to the ecclesia about what's going on. And Father, there are those in the ecclesia that have been confused and contrite, and they've been they've been wondering this and wondering that, and they've been scattered in their emotions, and not hearing clearly. And Father, I call the ecclesia to attention, and I say, ecclesia, rise up and be who God has called you to be in Jesus' name, and I hear the Lord say, "No more delay, no more delay, no more delay in Jesus' name, for the enemy shall pay. The enemy shall pay. And Father, I thank you. This is what I'm hearing. I thank you, Father, for a debt-free nation, a debt-free nation, In Jesus' name. {tongues} Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Father. Thank you, Jesus, that we can lift up our heads and we can stand strong because we know where our help comes from, and it comes from you, Lord. Father, I thank you that we're not a weak nation. We're not a weak people that you called by your name, Father. We're not weak, but we stand strong, and we push through, and we push the enemy out of the way. And Father, we rise up to be who you want us to be, to bring your kingdom on this earth as it is in heaven, Father. I thank you, Father, for the shift. I thank you for the deliverance. I thank you for the change that's happening, Father. We walk by faith and not by sight, and we say, "Yes, Lord, yes, Lord, yes, Lord, yes, Lord. We bring it on, Lord, and we will not bow. We will not bow to the enemy and to the situation and circumstances. But Father, we push through. We say yes, Lord. I just saw angels coming in. Ruth Ann: Father, we just surrender, and we say, angels, we are not going to make you mad. That's what they said to the children of Israel. Don't provoke the angels. We're here to work with you. What you're guiding us into, what you're bringing us to, we are when the angels come. We receive your message. We receive your directions from the Father. We're here for you to do. I know not as you say, but you're coming to work with us and us with you. Sonja: I don't know what this means. Rakha, maybe you can help me out here because I don't know what this means. But I heard offbeat, but it's not a bad thing. It's like a, and I've never heard this before, but you know how sometimes in music and in songs or whatever, the sound is like an offbeat sound, and I don't know what that means. Rakha said that it's off the beaten path, off the beaten path .What I see with that, it's not a bad thing because people in the world are going this way, and the Lord's calling us this way. Ruth Ann: So, off the beaten path means somewhere away from the usual popular or crowded places. It can mean going to a less known, out of the way location. It can mean your idea is different. We just give in to whatever you're saying about off the beaten path. If these angels need to take us wherever. Sonja: Okay, I'm just going to do a prophetic act in the name of Jesus, Father. I step out of the beat and the rhythm of the world, and I step into the offbeat path of you, and we partner with you in Jesus' name. Rakha: So, what I was seeing was, for first of all, for Native Americans, it's in this general direction. So I see an older man, and I'm not saying what he's what he's doing is he's being purposely cursing the Native Americans, but what he has are relics. What he has are artifacts, and what he does is, when somebody comes by, do you want to see my artifacts? Do you want to see my relics? Do you want to see my Native American collection, my Choctaw collection? And so, what he does is, when he speaks about it, and you know, talks about the people being poor talks about the people not having anything. Blah blah blah, and he's saying this over these relics, these old pieces. . I just detach from that. Me as a tribal person, but not only that, but for the tribe, we come out from under his words. Those relics are from the past, and they do not affect what's here, what's now. But also not only at the local level, but I also see it and on the United States. Sonja: In the name of Jesus, where these rituals are taking place, and it's empowering the false gods right now. In the name of Jesus, I break that. Yes, Lord, I do. I break it in the name of Jesus, I break it in the spirit. Father, I am asking for the archangel Michael to kick the doorkeeper of that demonic portal out in the name of Jesus. I am asking you, Father, to set to place Your angel to keep watch over that portal, to stop the sound and frequency, and all the declarations of the enemy out. I'm asking for a cleansing at the gate in Jesus' name. Father. I'm asking a cleansing over the true Jews and over what's rightfully theirs, Father, and I'm asking for a turnaround for a turnaround in the name of Jesus. And every. that has been stolen from them will flow freely in blessing the true Jews of Israel in Jesus' name. Ruth Ann : So the last few days, somebody actually drew my attention to Paul Cox's book about stoicheia . Now you think, what is stoicheia? I'm like God. Stoicheia a is a Hebraic word, okay, and it means simply this. I'm gonna read you the passage that translates as the word stoicheia, and it's more than one, but one of them is Galatians 4:1-10. Paul explains that an heir who is who is still a child is treated much like a servant, and you got to train a child in the way they should go. So they're taught, you know, when you're training up a child, you teach them to clean up, you teach them to. That's kind of you know, treat it much like a servant, even though the inheritance belongs to him. He remains under guardians until the time chosen by his father. Am I right about that? In the same way, humanity once held in slavery under basic principles and spiritual systems of the world. If you look up basic principles and spiritual systems of the world, what Paul actually said was the word stoicheia , and what he actually said is that we're caught under a system of religious belief and of rituals done to alter elements? That's interesting, right? Rakha : So let me be clear. What I saw, I saw the four things: the gold, the pearls, the diamonds, and paintings. Ruth Ann: So those are important. Rakha: Well, three of those are elements. Well, no, a diamond's not. A diamond would come from pearls. Not an element, but they combine with other things to make other elements to make it. Ruth Ann: That's right. So they are elements. They're made up of elements. Rakha: But gold is an element. Ruth Ann: And so we were talking about Native American gatherings earlier, and it's like it's coming up, and like we don't need it coming up. You know what I'm saying? Why is it closed? So when you're bringing all this up and you're praying in this direction, God said to me because I was wanting to go to another level of closure in my life, of you know my background, my ancestors, and he said, "Then you start repenting where your ancestors manipulated elements that was not my will. Ah, now you get it, yes. Now you get where I'm going. Okay. So if I'm doing something for it not to rain, I'm manipulating elements out of the will of God. If I'm, if He tells me to pray, the rain stops. It's different. Y'all understand what I'm saying. But if Satan tells me to manipulate something. I'm out of God's will. Rakha: Now that goes back to Egypt, where the Magi were magicians. Where they were competing, going back and forth. Ruth Ann: That's it. That goes back to there. That's manipulation of elements, and I feel like where we're talking, we're talking about even before Sonja, just verifying. I feel like elements were manipulated on both sides. That's what hadn't been closed down. . Ruth Ann: So Father, we just all come together, and we just start saying where our ancestors opened doors that are still affecting things today, where we prayed against the things that you wanted to happen in the earth, where we did rituals against things that were wrong, where we did rituals to open doors, where our ancestors did rituals to cover up thievery, where they did rituals to cover up truth, where they did rituals where they asked the sun, moon, stars, and earth to work with them in these rituals to cover up truth. We repent, Father. God's been having me do that for days about my personal ancestors, where they did things, okay, that covered and used elements like we don't want the sun to shine today, we don't want the stars to, we don't want the sounds to be heard, we don't. So Father, where our ancestors did rituals that caused the elements to have to work away against what you were wanting to happen. Father, we repent today. We ask your forgiveness today. It's called the stoicheia. If you want to look it up in the Hebrew, it's called the Stoicheia, and that is exactly what Paul said in Galatians 4. We have been under the Stoicheia, we've been under the ways of the world and the ways of the world's teaching about how we can step out and do these things. So, Father, we're thievery. We're ancestors have stolen things and then prayed for the world and the earth to work with them to hide things. Father, forgive us. Forgive us, Father, where they have done these things and they have manipulated elements. Forgive us. Sonja: I just want to add to that. That's what I'm hearing someone say. Father, in the name of Jesus, I just come before you, and I repent, Father. Where my ancestors and any of our ancestors used the consolations to manipulate truth, to manipulate your word, Father, I come out of agreement with that, and I cut it off. And Father, I just ask that you forgive us, forgive my ancestors, Lord, where they came in agreement and used the consolations to falsely prophesy those words, negative words, to manipulate the times and seasons. Not only that, but for people's individual lives in my bloodline, Father, and I repent in Jesus' name, and I cut it off of all of us in the name of Jesus. Rakha: So I'm seeing looking at the periodic table, and I think it's like 89 elements or 82 elements. I can't remember. Heavenly Father, where those elements have been manipulated or utilized to bring any kind of goal, any kind have been used by the enemy, Heavenly Father. We just cut that off of ourselves. We bring back those elements back underneath you, and there are some elements that have not been identified. The Lord just dropping it in in me that there are some elements that have not been vocalized, have not been publicly announced. So, what elements that are being hidden from us? Those elements cannot be utilized by the enemy. Those elements still fall under the jurisdiction of the kingdom of God, and they will remain there in Jesus' name. Ruth Ann: You just don't know what you've hit, and this is so true because when God had me doing all this repentance, you know. I met Paul Cox in 2003, and I have been just, you know. So I pulled his book on the Stoicheia when God told me. He said, "Start repenting for what your ancestors manipulated to cover things up. Okay, because they're manipulating his stuff. Okay, they're manipulating his stuff, and so I have honestly sat this last few days and said, Father, anywhere my ancestors manipulated any part of the periodic table, that's a wow. Do you understand when you picked it up, anywhere anything on the periodic table full of elements was manipulated by my ancestors , which is everything that makes up gold, which is everything that makes up a diamond, which is ever you see what I'm saying. Anywhere my ancestors has manipulated anything on the periodic table that is against your will, that's speaking against me in the heavenlies, because it can't work with me because my ancestors manipulated it. That's what I've been praying. This can't work with me because my ancestors manipulated it. Is that interesting? And I was going to teach this Wednesday night. This is what I really been thinking about going deep into Wednesday night, so we can start breaking off. Because anybody that's has ancestors that's done any form of witchcraft, whether it be like the Magi, whether it be white magic, black magic, they manipulated elements, okay? Whether it be rituals, like any type of rituals, is manipulating elements, and so I've been sitting and I've been saying, and the more I've repented, the more release I have felt, and that just tells me what we were talking about this morning. The elements in that particular place, have to be called back into their right alignment, and yeah, you see it now. I do too. I see what the thing is. Go ahead. Sonja: Okay, where I get my words correctly. So this is what I was hear, and when she was talking about the elements and how many elements there were, and all this, so Father, in the name of Jesus, where our ancestors came in agreement with the demonic use of the elements and the treasures that you have given us, and it came in through the Treasury Department in the United States. Father, we repent. Father, we cut ourselves off individually and as a nation with those false demonic agreements. I decree that no more can the Treasury Department of the United States of America use those demonic portals and agreements to control the elements and the treasures of your kingdom., In Jesus' name. That is so correct. Sonja: In Jesus' name, I decree that He whom the Son sets free is free indeed, and I decree that the United States of America is free from the stronghold of the enemy controlling the elements and the treasury, your treasures from heaven, in Jesus' name. Things that I just saw when I heard that was that an angel was a document from heaven to the Treasury Department for justice. Rakha: What you said explains, because when I said on the local level, and then I said over the United States, but what I didn't see the United States, what I saw was a bald eagle. Sonja: And so, Father, right now, in the name of Jesus, as a child of God, as a citizen of the United States of America, as a resident here, I cut off any sound or frequency or any covenant that was made by the enemy all the way back to Egypt. I cut it off. Ruth Ann: So actually, if we are altering sound, that it goes into elements. You see what I'm saying? Frequency is an element. So after the person contacted me, I pull this book, and now you know you have to go back. I've been with Paul Cox since '03, okay? And I'm like, okay, God, I repent. Y'all understand? Sometimes you just got to repent because it's on your bookshelf. Okay, is that does that make sense? So he starts in this. He starts with first a prayer of the DNA, and I'll just read. Ruth Ann: He says, "Go into the enemy's library and destroy all books that contains the enemy's inscription up on my DNA, RNA, and my proteins. That's like a wow, is it not? And but then he keeps on. He starts on the next page with ministering to the DNA and the RNA and the chromosomes. Then he goes next to pray to reestablish God's original design. And he, after he gets into that, so he's taking this in progression in this book, and renounce your ancestors illegally accessing second heaven windows, wrong windows of heaven, and that's what we're talking about because second heaven is where you find the enemy, is not where you find God. Okay, and then he says, let's deal with the stoicheia, what's been manipulated by your ancestors and you. Okay, and so this is one of it. I'll just lead you in it. And he says this on behalf of my family and myself back to the beginning of time. I repent. And I renounce the purposeful attempt to change the elements over creation or affecting them in any way or form through ungodly means. I confess that these are sinful actions against you, Lord. So I renounce all sin, iniquity, and transgression relating. to manipulation of the elements in my family line. You created all things, and all things are holy. So, Father, restore the elements that my family manipulated to their proper levels to be correctly used in the name of Jesus. Ruth Ann: I felt that one. I felt y'all feel that one. If your family line, whether we have or not, has participated in any type of ritual, it's there, and then we want this stuff to work with us, is what Paul is explaining, and it can't work with us because it's been manipulated against our family. Ruth Ann: So, Father God, we're just here again to repent for the rituals done over things that keeps things locked up away from us. And Father, we ask your forgiveness that these rituals that we've allowed, that we participated in, that our family participated in, our nation participated in, that keeps things locked up from us. Father, we repent for this, Father, and we ask your forgiveness, and we call things back into proper order, proper order in each one of our lives because we're repenting today and we're loosening ourselves from the sins of our fathers. Sonja: Father, we just praise you and we thank you, Father. And I saw a key that was being unlocked in the layout of D.C. the way that D.C. was laid out. Okay, I heard I saw a key, and um, and I saw it in D.C. and I saw the map of how D.C. has been laid out, and I heard the Lord say, "Take the key, open the door, and when you open the door and unlock it, that sound and frequency when DC was laid out will boomerang back on them. Rakha: We always think and wonder that DC was laid out according to the Masonic and aligning with the stars and planets and stuff like that. Well, who's not to say that it doesn't align as elements? Elements, the atoms, you know, or whatever it is. It could, it could very well be aligned, everything positioned according to a certain element. Sonja: That's true. So right now, in the name of Jesus, I'm just going to use my car keys because you know car key in the spirit, a car represents your ministry. So, using my keys, so Father, right now in the name of Jesus, as a prophetic act, I take this key into Washington D.C. in the spirit realm, and I unlock the door. And Father, I step in, and I thank you, Father, that as the door opens, that that sound and that frequency boomerangs back on them, and I heard backfire, you know, Carl backfire, so it backfires on them, Father. Lord, I Thank you right now that anywhere when DC was laid out was manipulated with the elements of the earth, Father I repent on behalf of my ancestors and whomever laid it out, Father, and I ask that you forgive us, that it can no longer operate in our nation and in the nations. In Jesus' name, I cut it off from Europe, I cut it off from Egypt, I cut it off from anywhere that it came from, in the name of Jesus. Father, I decree and declare that your sound and your frequency and the elements cooperate the way you've ordained it to operate in D.C. in our nation throughout the nations in Jesus' name, Hallelujah. Sonja: Good morning. We want to welcome you to Global Vision this morning. We want to say that this is the day that the Lord has made, and we're going to rejoice and we're going to be glad in it. We're going to worship the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. And Father, we just submit to you. We thank you, Father, that you meet all of our needs according to your riches and glory by Christ Jesus, and Father, we thank you that you have your way in this service today. Speak to our hearts, open our eyes that we may see, open our ears that we may hear what you have to say for us individually, corporately, in this region and in this nation. In Jesus' name, Amen. Ruth Ann: Yes, more favor, but more favor means I'm obeying God. More favor means I'm doing how He wants to do, right? More favor means I'm taking what goes wrong and I'm learning to do right from what went wrong. Ruth Ann: Prayer So, Father, in the name of Jesus, I ask you for your grace, your mercy, and loving kindness. I thank you for every wilderness season that you've used to transform me, and I thank you for every hidden lesson, every delay, every act of surrender, every one of my tears that you've collected when I cried, and everywhere you taught me to trust you. So I surrender my plans, my ambitions, my desires, reputation, relationships, resources, and future to you. I allow you to remove every motive that would cause me to misuse your favor, deliver me from pride, selfish ambition, fear of people, comparison, jealousy, entitlement , the need for security, and the need for recognition. So write mercy and truth upon my heart. Help me grow in more wisdom, Maturity, integrity, discernment, humility, and obedience. Teach me to hear your voice and respond promptly. So give me favor with you and the people connected to my assignment. Release to me divine accommodations, divine assistance, divine protection, divine connections, divine provision, and divine backing from you, open for me every door that agrees with your purpose for me, and close every door that disagrees with your purpose for me. So, Father, may every increase in my service to you give glory to you. May every increase in my resources cause me to be more generous and give increase to you. May every door that you send me through be an advancement for your kingdom, in the name of Jesus . Sonja: I just want to say this. This is what I heard the Lord say, and I'm just going to say it over all of us. And this is what I heard that the favor of God. That the favor of God has been a protection over us. Okay, when you walk in the favor of God, what I heard him say was, "The more favor you walk in Him, the more you're protected. And so I heard him say that as we walk in the favor of God, the more protection that we have, and the enemy can't get to you. It's going to be more. It's the enemy can't get to you because in order to walk in the favor of God, just like Ruth Ann taught this morning, the more obedience that you walk in, the more favor that you have, the more obedience that you are to God, the more protected you are. Ruth Ann: This is so important that you get this, okay? And don't come up and say it has something to do with somebody's faith level. Oftentimes, we say, "Well, why did it happen that way for that person? And I have faith that God is going to do something, but to get the favor, which is really like a big revelation, when you get it today, that's your mercy and truth that you're walking in. You get what I'm saying. I'm earning and I'm increasing by truth. You see, I can't live in darkness when I'm living in truth. I can't live with the enemy's world when I'm living in truth. Because I can't do anything against. Here's my Bible. I can't do anything against this right here. Y'all see what I'm saying? When I'm in truth, this stands as my truth, and that's what I was talking about. Political people. It doesn't matter who they are. I'm not a party. I'm not that argument. I'm not a left or a right. Y'all get what I'm a God, God person. So it's got to measure here. Do y'all understand what I'm saying. This is the only truth. This is the truth. Doesn't matter what the law says. Doesn't matter. This is the truth, the word of the Lord. And the more I walk in truth, I can't walk with the enemy. That's when I gain my favor. I increase. Do you see what I'm saying? I can't go watch that bad advertisement on TV. Cut it off. I can't let the stuff in my house. Y'all get what I'm saying? Can't let it around me in my environment. Is that making sense? Got anything else? Sonja: You know, I think about Jesus, and you know everything was talking about. You know, he went through everything that we went through, and he had to be faced with everything that we're facing. So he was sent as a man. Okay, the more favor that Jesus walked in as a man, the more obedient as he was as a man, flesh and bone, like me and you. The more boldness, the more protection, the more clarity, the stronger he was. Now, that just because you walk in the favor of God and listen to me doesn't mean the enemy's not going to come knock at your door, because he will. But the thing about it is, you will have the boldness and the more authority, the more grace, the more mercy, the more ability, the more character, the more integrity to stand up against the enemy, just like Jesus did. Now he was beaten like a like a rag doll, but it did not. It did not affect him from from fulfilling what God had called him to do. So when you're faced with persecution and you're faced with trials and you're faced with the enemy, just remember you can either cave to it and give into it and be succumbed to it, or you can be like Jesus and stand and overcome because the enemy thought he had won when Jesus died on the cross. In reality, he did not. He lost. Do you hear what I'm saying? So, the more favor, the more obedience, the more integrity, the more it develops your character. And I was standing over here, and I said, "Lord, where does this tie into this? This is what I was hearing. . He says, "There's somebody here that has a jealous spirit on them, that you are jealous because you see this other person overcoming, who is who is rising up to be what God has called them to be, yet they've been faced with some stuff, but they've overcome because it hasn't affected their walk with Christ. And the Lord says, "Do not envy or be jealous of anybody else, but stay on your path for what he's called you to do, so your favor can increase. Ruth Ann: You increasing your favor. It's about you increasing your favor. It's not about worried about them. All you're concerned about is how do I increase my favor? Because my favor is going to bring me the divine protection. My favor is going to open doors. My favor is going to bring resources to increase. It's my favor. So whatever they did to earn their favor, I'm going to earn mine. Y'all get what I'm saying? And it may just be that they was obedient to God, and if God told them to clean up their house, they cleaned it up. And if He told them to go to school and increase in understanding, they did it. I don't know what it is. Y'all get what I'm saying? Whatever they did was obedience to Him. Does that make sense? Ruth Ann: Amen. Yeah, this is exciting. Yes, yay. So everybody, be blessed.
