This podcast is for those not looking for temporary relief to change circumstance, but

4
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:21,920
revelation to forever change lives.

5
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:25,720
Hey welcome to another episode of Keep It 100 with Sean and Christa.

6
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:28,680
Hey everybody, so excited to be with you once again.

7
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:34,280
This is truly going to be a special episode because Christa and I and our entire team

8
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:39,840
have just come out of a phenomenal gathering that we've been telling you guys about Momentum

9
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:41,080
2024.

10
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:47,120
Some of you recall we had our first one in 2023 and then it just began all kinds of stuff.

11
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,120
We began to have monthly meetings.

12
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:54,200
We were planning Momentum 2024, but we had no idea what we were in for.

13
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:59,240
It really has been a sovereign work of the Lord and that is just so encouraging when

14
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:03,400
God moves in a way you just didn't expect you prayed for, right?

15
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:07,880
You believed for it, but then when you see it actually happen, that began in 2023 and

16
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,400
we're just seeing really just a deeper increase.

17
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,840
Like 2023 Momentum was absolutely incredible.

18
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,000
It was mind-blowing and I felt super changed.

19
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:21,960
And then Momentum 2024, the purity in the room, the presence of God in the room was

20
00:01:21,960 --> 00:01:26,640
so special and so incredible and we just went really, really deep.

21
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:32,960
So it felt again, very marking and I feel once again, like I did last year, I have a

22
00:01:32,960 --> 00:01:37,920
really hard time articulating all that God did because it was such a deep and layered

23
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:39,840
work that he did in the room with all of us.

24
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:41,000
It was so special.

25
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:45,040
You know, we had a phenomenal crowd of people that packed out.

26
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:46,640
We had to pull out more chairs.

27
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:51,200
We had people sitting in the risers and it just opened up.

28
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:56,360
And I would just love Chris to just to give a quick little recap of just what we experienced

29
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:57,840
and what we saw.

30
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:02,720
One of the things that I think was so important was the worship and people testified about

31
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:08,640
this boo that it was worship was just so Jesus centered, glory packed.

32
00:02:08,640 --> 00:02:10,160
People just felt this pure stream.

33
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,360
People over and over said the worship was so pure.

34
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:14,040
Didn't feel manufactured.

35
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,160
It was just so pure.

36
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,640
And it was like we were caught up during these times of worship.

37
00:02:19,640 --> 00:02:20,640
It's really true.

38
00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:24,960
And I had an encounter with the glory of the Lord, a really unique encounter.

39
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,480
And I've actually never had an encounter like that.

40
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:31,720
And it was just a realm that opened up in the atmosphere.

41
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:37,720
And so what we experienced as a corporate body, it felt like everyone was having these

42
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:41,520
individual encounters and yet we were having one big corporate encounter.

43
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:47,480
And like Sean said, there was this collective unified agreement on the purity in the room

44
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:48,760
that there was no agenda.

45
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:53,280
But Jesus like Jesus was being glorified and it wasn't like anyone was trying to pull attention

46
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:54,680
to themselves.

47
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:59,240
It was simply God was in the room and we couldn't help but adore him.

48
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:00,240
Yes.

49
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:06,200
And we saw people just come and flood the altar's leg out before the Lord.

50
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,320
It was in that time that you could feel such faith in the room that there was a guy that

51
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:14,880
came on with crutches because of an injury to his leg that literally he got prayed for.

52
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,320
I think his service was starting worship was starting.

53
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:21,800
And I love it just some people prayed for him and he threw his crutches on the altar

54
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:27,400
and it stayed on the altar for the rest of the conference slash not conference gathering.

55
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,920
And I got a chance to talk to him at the end and hug him and take a picture selfie with

56
00:03:30,920 --> 00:03:31,920
him.

57
00:03:31,920 --> 00:03:33,320
He just said, he got healed.

58
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:34,320
God touched him.

59
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:35,320
Come on.

60
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:36,320
I love that.

61
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:37,520
And it was so, it was so cool.

62
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,080
Like I don't know how I missed it.

63
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,920
I think I was just worshiping and I was so focused on Jesus.

64
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:46,840
I somehow missed it when the crutches crowd surfed and you there's a beautiful picture.

65
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:47,840
I have it on my social media.

66
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,920
So if you want to check it out, it's my last post.

67
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:54,040
And it really to me sums up how momentum felt.

68
00:03:54,040 --> 00:04:00,080
It was just this like joy, miracles, signs and wonders.

69
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:05,080
God of the impossible making it possible moment where Sean's holding the crutch with the biggest

70
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,520
smile like such a joy.

71
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:08,920
And I just felt like it summed it up.

72
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:14,120
It captured like, oh my gosh, we're living in the days where we're experiencing the fullness

73
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,240
of what God's intended for us to experience.

74
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:22,880
And I think so many of our faiths in that moment and just throughout momentum conference

75
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:28,640
was this reminder and maybe for some people, the light bulb went on for the first time

76
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,120
and that is the stuff is real.

77
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:32,680
God's real and the Bible is real.

78
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:33,920
The book of Acts is real.

79
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:35,360
Like God really does this.

80
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:36,360
Yes.

81
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:37,360
Freedom in the room.

82
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:38,360
People receive freedom.

83
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:39,360
So free.

84
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:40,360
There was deliverances throughout the conversation.

85
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:41,360
So many deliverances.

86
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:42,360
It was beautiful.

87
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,200
You knew they were getting set free.

88
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:45,200
Yes.

89
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:46,200
It was amazing.

90
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:47,200
We broke for souls.

91
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:51,080
I mean, I was sobbing, just crying out for the loss.

92
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:55,200
We were challenged in the area of using our voice.

93
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:59,600
Particularly we've got an opportunity to impact this nation and shape the narrative over a

94
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:00,600
generation.

95
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,280
We need to use our voice, voice of righteousness, the prophetic voice.

96
00:05:04,280 --> 00:05:08,400
We heard messages that just the hunger for the more.

97
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:13,600
We heard messages on just purity, on hearing the voice of God.

98
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,560
I mean, there were so many different things.

99
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:19,560
Our identity, the fact that our work is unfinished.

100
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:25,400
It's hard to put in the words, the variety of the way we were spoken to.

101
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:29,240
It was like the spirit of God just began to deal with all these different areas.

102
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:33,520
And then we culminated with your session, which is really what this episode is going

103
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:40,280
to be about because Christy, you shared a phenomenal session on just prophetic things

104
00:05:40,280 --> 00:05:43,280
that you felt like the Lord was sharing with you.

105
00:05:43,280 --> 00:05:46,720
And right before we jump into that part because I'm going to interview Christ and then I'm

106
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:47,720
going to share some stuff.

107
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:52,640
I just want you to know, I know many of you, you go, man, I wasn't able to make it to Momentum

108
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:53,640
2024.

109
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,680
I didn't do the live stream as of right now.

110
00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:03,280
You can go on our website, SeanandchristaSmith.com and you can order all of the sessions

111
00:06:03,280 --> 00:06:04,840
from Momentum 2024.

112
00:06:04,840 --> 00:06:11,360
And we literally just people weeping people talk to us from people that have been around

113
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:12,920
the faith for a while to new believers.

114
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:19,520
And they all said that it was just something that was so for them earth shattering, like

115
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,600
just something that they'll never be the same.

116
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:26,240
And so you're going to want to go on right now and you can get all of the sessions on

117
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:27,480
our website right now.

118
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:28,480
And so you want to do it.

119
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:29,480
So let's jump in this.

120
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:30,480
You ready for this?

121
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:31,480
Ready.

122
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:32,480
Let's do it.

123
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:36,680
I was listening to some guys talk about this and I just want to say this.

124
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:40,280
The guy made something, you know, in terms of a point, he made, he said something I thought

125
00:06:40,280 --> 00:06:41,680
was really profound.

126
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:46,800
He says, on one hand, not everybody has to have a brand new year word.

127
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,560
You know, like, I think there's a temptation that's like, Oh, it's 2024.

128
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:50,560
I got a prophecy.

129
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:51,560
I got to have a word.

130
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:52,560
Oh, it's going to be 2025.

131
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:53,560
I got to have a word.

132
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:58,280
But at the same time, it doesn't negate the fact that God doesn't want to speak and is

133
00:06:58,280 --> 00:06:59,280
speaking to us.

134
00:06:59,280 --> 00:07:02,280
And I could truly say, listen to your message and knowing you.

135
00:07:02,280 --> 00:07:06,480
You really have a bead on the word of the Lord.

136
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:11,360
So Christa, I just want to begin by asking you one of the things that you spoke about

137
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,960
in your message, as you began to speak about one of the things you saw God doing in this

138
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,200
next season was the midwife anointing.

139
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:21,000
Can you break that down and share with us what it is that God spoke to you as a release

140
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:22,000
to that?

141
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,760
I heard the Lord say that this is a year of birthing and that I'm mantling the bride

142
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,600
with a midwife anointing.

143
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,400
I didn't understand the verb it's per se, but he took me through a study in scripture

144
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:35,800
and then he gave me a prophetic word to kind of break that down to really make that statement

145
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,280
that feels a bit abstract, a little bit more digestible.

146
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:43,760
And what I heard the Lord say is that because this is a year of birthing, I felt like the

147
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,920
Lord said, I'm raising up people in this hour with a midwife anointing that are going to

148
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,280
help birth this move of God that he's doing right now.

149
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:55,080
And I really believe that we're in a moment of a divine push and I'm going to kind of

150
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,920
break down what does that push mean and what does that look like in our lives.

151
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:03,520
But the Lord then reminded me that when something's birthed, imagine a delivery room, there's

152
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:09,360
a cry that's released when something's getting birthed and it's raw, it's undignified, it

153
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:10,680
can make you uncomfortable.

154
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:15,960
If you're not comfortable with unusual noises, don't go near a delivery room because there's

155
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,000
all sorts of sounds.

156
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,040
There's all sorts of not your normal everyday sound.

157
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:26,880
You're like, whoa, I'm here in a location and in a place where something that is not

158
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:28,960
normally happening is happening.

159
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:34,840
When you're around something getting birthed, you're like, whoa, hold on, I've got to know

160
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:40,480
why I'm here and what I'm doing here because you feel the sensitivity of the location.

161
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,320
And I feel like that's true of the church right now.

162
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:47,640
Understand your assignment in this hour and understand the location that we're called

163
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,520
to walk in at this moment.

164
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,880
And I felt like the Lord says, what he's about to release this sound that we're going to

165
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:58,560
hear in the delivery room of revival, it will make you uncomfortable.

166
00:08:58,560 --> 00:09:01,840
And it's going to press on every religious bone in the body of Christ.

167
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,000
And truth is, some of us may not even like it at first, right?

168
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,200
Because it's going to be loud, it's going to be messy, it's going to be radical.

169
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:12,760
But the push that I'm talking about that's going to happen in this delivery room of God,

170
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:13,920
it's going to bring order.

171
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:17,360
And it's actually going to push out anything that is not essential.

172
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:18,520
And what do I mean by that?

173
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:23,000
All the fluff, all the nonsense, all the things that we focus on that truly don't have eternal

174
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:24,400
value.

175
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,000
They are going to lose their pull or sway with us.

176
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,840
We're really just going to focus on what's actually really important, the undiluted gospel,

177
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:37,520
the presence of Jesus, worshiping and adoring him, praying, being intercessors, being watchmen

178
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:41,800
on the wall, and actually partnering with what God's doing and walking in the fullness

179
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:42,960
of what's available to us.

180
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:47,560
So when you push and you understand the assignment, all of a sudden the other things that used

181
00:09:47,560 --> 00:09:53,080
to seem so important distract you, take up your time and kind of just get you off focus

182
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:54,960
of who we are in God.

183
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:59,160
God's like, as you guys push into the things of what I'm doing, all that other stuff that

184
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,320
is not essential is actually going to just be pushed out of the way because when you're

185
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:07,600
in the delivery room of revival, when you're a midwife and the anointing, it brings a focus

186
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,960
to why you're doing what you're doing.

187
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,600
And God says, I'm bringing a focus to the church.

188
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:16,160
And that's why so many people have been battling a spirit of distraction.

189
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:21,840
I've asked so many people when I've been, when I've ministered or just in private conversation,

190
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:26,520
like when you are spending time with God or when you're trying to press in, like everything

191
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:30,440
you're supposed to cover that day, that week, that month, that year pops into your mind,

192
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:31,440
right?

193
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:32,440
Anyone relate to that?

194
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,160
Some of you listening or we're going, Christa, that's me.

195
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:38,120
I'm like, that's a spirit of distraction, but it just shows you God's actually going

196
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:42,560
to break that spirit of distraction and he's bringing a focus in 2024 to the church.

197
00:10:42,560 --> 00:10:44,440
Like we're going to really understand what we're about.

198
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:49,500
But I felt like the Lord says, as you press in, understand there at times will be resistance.

199
00:10:49,500 --> 00:10:53,600
But if you do not give way to their resistance, if you don't come underneath the, the, the

200
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:57,560
opposition, if you don't come underneath the criticism or what people think or that man

201
00:10:57,560 --> 00:11:03,440
pleasing, if you just stay true to what God has called you to birth in this season and

202
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:08,400
to be a midwife, and that is you being in position as a coach in the delivery room of

203
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:09,400
revival.

204
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:14,200
That's you sitting there looking at the people, the body of Christ, the church, the bride at

205
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:19,720
large, and you're actually in a position to encourage her to coach her and to call her

206
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,320
to a place of birthing.

207
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:22,880
And so what does that mean?

208
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,600
That means when she lags, you're like, come on, come on, get up, get up.

209
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:26,920
It's time to get up, mama.

210
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:28,400
And then it's time to push.

211
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:29,400
It's time to press in.

212
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:30,400
Nope.

213
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:31,400
Come on.

214
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,040
Don't, don't get stuck where the enemy wants you to get stuck.

215
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:34,040
Don't take the bait.

216
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:35,160
Don't get caught up in that narrative.

217
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:36,160
Don't get distracted.

218
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,160
Stay focused while you're here.

219
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:44,000
What you, what you carry, who you are, you are reminded you're in a position to remind

220
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:49,840
to declare, to pray through and to position, help position the body of Christ to birth

221
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:50,960
this move of God.

222
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:57,520
So I feel like the midwife anointing has a responsibility of intercession of declaration

223
00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,920
and positioning in an area of authority.

224
00:11:59,920 --> 00:12:06,240
And I was reminded of Exodus one, versus 13 through 15, were introduced.

225
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:11,960
The king of Egypt is addressing two midwives named Shifra and Pua.

226
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,080
And these two midwives, they were barren.

227
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:18,000
That's how a woman was designated and chosen to be a midwife.

228
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,960
It's because she could not have children of her own.

229
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:26,000
So here's this barren woman that is asked to have an assignment to bring life and to

230
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:30,840
help give life and to help these women birth what they're carrying in the natural.

231
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:34,440
But he gets intimidated of the, of the children of Israel.

232
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:39,440
And so where they were once friends, they're now viewed as enemy of the Egyptian people.

233
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:43,760
So if you're tracking with me, because the king is now intimidated by the children of

234
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:48,600
Israel, he now wants to create a genocide and he wants to go after the male baby.

235
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:52,160
So he calls these midwives in where their assignment up into this point has been to

236
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:53,160
give life.

237
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:58,280
He's saying, I want you actually to kill every male heir that's born.

238
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:02,680
But what he did not understand and what he fully underestimated was these two midwives

239
00:13:02,680 --> 00:13:04,880
feared God above him.

240
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:11,400
And so the king didn't understand that the fear of God is higher than the fear of a king

241
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:12,760
in the natural.

242
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:17,280
And so he thought he would have their buy-in because of his authority, because of his,

243
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,200
you know, clout in the natural.

244
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:22,080
But what I love is these women had a choice.

245
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:23,160
Who are they going to fear?

246
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:24,320
Are they going to fear the king?

247
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,480
Are they going to fear the king of kings?

248
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,800
And they chose to fear the king of kings.

249
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:34,080
And because they did this, they ended up saving a nation, a people group, the children of

250
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:35,920
Israel from a genocide.

251
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:42,560
See, the king was actually wanting to ultimately take out the children of Israel and it was

252
00:13:42,560 --> 00:13:44,040
a slow genocide.

253
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:48,720
And I mean this because if you take all the males out of a society or a people group,

254
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:50,640
you're not going to be able to reproduce.

255
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:55,520
If you take all the males out of a society and a people group, you will have a fatherless

256
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:56,520
generation.

257
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,040
You will have orphans, which is key to identity.

258
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,020
And so he was going after their identity.

259
00:14:01,020 --> 00:14:05,160
He was going after their ability to reproduce, have legacy, have inheritance.

260
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,320
Like he was going, he was very strategic.

261
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:11,640
They weren't going to really feel the full consequences of this declaration from the

262
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,840
king for decades in a sense.

263
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:19,520
Really, when those, you know, people would age, then you would really see the fallout

264
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:20,760
of this decision.

265
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:26,000
But these midwives, because they had foresight, they were like, we cannot actually have a

266
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,880
new assignment because we already understand our assignment.

267
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:34,160
Our assignment is to honor God and to bring life and to release life and guard life and

268
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:35,440
protect life.

269
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:40,520
And because they understood, they actually ended up saving the people, the people of

270
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:45,320
God and they actually were in the time where Moses was spared.

271
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:50,000
And this is really cool that when you actually study the history of this story, this is when

272
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,200
Moses, that's why he was found in a basket, right?

273
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:57,960
In the Nile is because this was during the time where the king of Egypt was trying to

274
00:14:57,960 --> 00:14:59,080
take out.

275
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:03,480
So his mom and dad had kept him and hidden him for three months, but now he's obviously

276
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:04,960
too old to hide.

277
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:06,080
So what do they do?

278
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:10,800
They put him in a basket and then one of the Pharaoh's daughters finds this beautiful baby

279
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:15,520
boy, Moses, in a basket, adopts him, brings him into the royal family.

280
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,080
And that's how Moses ends up.

281
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:23,120
It's because of the movement that Shifra and Pua did as a midwife.

282
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:28,600
They're called for courage, they're called for bravery, they're called to honor God,

283
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,760
spared a nation and it delivered the deliverer, right?

284
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:36,520
So I just feel like we have to understand in this moment, there's a deliverance anointing

285
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,240
on the midwives for America right now.

286
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:42,400
And we have to understand that we are called to birth and move of God.

287
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:47,000
And in this birthing, there's going to be a deliverance of bondage over the nation of

288
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:48,000
America.

289
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:49,600
You know, that's so good for a couple of different reasons.

290
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:53,560
I think we all, Christ have been at places in our walk where we feel like something was

291
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:54,560
aborted.

292
00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:57,760
Like there was a dream we were given, there was an opportunity we were given.

293
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:02,520
We begin to step out and feel some, I'm going to use the word again, momentum in the area

294
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,720
of some ministry, whatever it may be.

295
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,240
But then we feel like we get hit, something happens.

296
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,240
And throughout life, people get coaches.

297
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:10,680
They get coaches when they work out.

298
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:15,080
They get coaches in terms of tutors when they're maybe in their school or whatever it is, a

299
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:16,520
skill you want to acquire.

300
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:21,680
So I love that fact that you're saying in this season, you, we need to help midwife

301
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,960
the callings and giftings in people.

302
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:24,960
Yes.

303
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:25,960
That's the overall purpose of God.

304
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:31,200
And then one other point you made that I really thought about in Acts seven, nineteen, there

305
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,600
is a retelling of what was the strategy of Pharaoh.

306
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:36,560
And it said, now this is New Testament now.

307
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:43,200
And obviously where Christ is quoting from goes back to Exodus.

308
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:46,800
And so it says in Acts 17, it spoke of Pharaoh.

309
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:51,800
It says, it was Pharaoh who dealt truly and took advantage of our nation and mistreated

310
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:57,360
our fathers and exposed them in order that they might abandon their infants in the Nile

311
00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,400
so that they would not survive.

312
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:06,440
So Pharaoh's strategy was to expose the fathers in a way that they would abandon their kids

313
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:10,640
and there would be a fatherless generation, one, and there would be a boarding of that

314
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:12,080
next generation.

315
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:13,360
And so I agree with you right now.

316
00:17:13,360 --> 00:17:16,680
I think part of that midwife anointing, it's seen in so many different ways.

317
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,920
That is such a great, great point.

318
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:23,720
And you know what I love is I find it incredibly encouraging because these two women who were

319
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:27,800
barren and in the natural really didn't have a lot to give.

320
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:31,360
They were actually put in this position because they lacked, right?

321
00:17:31,360 --> 00:17:37,400
So God used these two women that quote, quote, lacked in the natural and they were used to

322
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:38,400
bring deliverance.

323
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:42,240
And if you keep reading the story because they honored God, God gave them their own

324
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:44,440
family and they were no longer barren.

325
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:48,160
And I think you can apply that to your life in the natural and you can apply that to your

326
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:49,800
life in the spiritual.

327
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:53,680
And I simply want you to understand that, you know, you might feel like you don't have

328
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:54,680
anything.

329
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:55,800
You're like, what do I have in my hand?

330
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:56,960
All I see is the lack.

331
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:58,720
I want you to know God doesn't see the lack.

332
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:00,320
He actually is just looking for your yes.

333
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:05,400
If you're just obedient to God, love God, give your life to God, he's going to make what's

334
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:12,160
barren or what feels not fruitful or the place that feels like the place of nothing.

335
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:13,440
He's going to make it something.

336
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,000
He's going to make it that place of breakthrough.

337
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:18,400
He's actually going to make it that place that is fruitful for you.

338
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:22,800
And so I just, I want you guys to understand that God sees our lives different than how

339
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:23,800
we see him.

340
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:25,480
He sees us sometimes different.

341
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:29,800
I hope, you know, we have a full, you know, ability to see how God sees us, but I don't

342
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:33,640
know if we're really able to see fully how God sees us.

343
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:38,880
God sees us as fully capable, you know, and fully able to partner with him.

344
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:43,400
He is not concerned about what we don't have in the natural because whatever we need, he

345
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:44,720
will give it to us.

346
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:45,720
And I just love that.

347
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:50,720
I love that these women walked in what seemed like nothing and they walked out with everything

348
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:51,720
their heart desired.

349
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,880
And I just think all because they just said, you know what, we're just honoring God.

350
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:56,000
We're just going to honor God.

351
00:18:56,000 --> 00:19:01,160
And so our lives are truly just about positioning ourselves from a place of obedience and honoring

352
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:02,160
God.

353
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,840
And I think there was even some Bible scholars and they did, they ran the numbers on it,

354
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:11,440
but these two women basically it affected other women who also courageously stood up

355
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:15,480
to protect these Hebrew babies.

356
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:21,320
And it's easy to say that when you influence that generation, save them.

357
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:26,640
It could very easily be talking about, we're talking about millions of people in a generation

358
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:28,440
were spared because of the sets.

359
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:29,440
So profound.

360
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,120
You know, another thing you hit on on the conference, Chris, I think it was.

361
00:19:32,120 --> 00:19:33,240
So profound.

362
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:38,280
And I even want you to break it out, but it had to do with men and a strategy of the enemy

363
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:39,280
in this hour.

364
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:40,280
Go ahead.

365
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:41,280
Why don't you share that?

366
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,000
Well, I don't know if people have heard me talk about this before.

367
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,280
I'll simply kind of give a little bit of a backdrop from where this is coming from.

368
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,760
You know, we're in a moment where esters are arising.

369
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,960
We're seeing women of God be raised up like never before.

370
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:58,320
We're seeing God really promote women in this hour and it is absolutely God.

371
00:19:58,320 --> 00:19:59,320
It's exciting.

372
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:00,320
I love it.

373
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:04,440
And I am just cheering on every woman that's getting released right now, but then the Lord

374
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:11,080
began to speak to me about Mordecais that Mordecais are equally as important as esters

375
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:16,680
that actually Esther wouldn't have been Esther had Mordecai not come to her and come to,

376
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:20,000
yes, come to her without his prompting.

377
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:24,120
She would not have stepped into the assignment of God in her life and would not have spared

378
00:20:24,120 --> 00:20:28,240
a nation because we got to remember that when Mordecai sent word to her, she actually sent

379
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,480
an argument back of the King hasn't called me.

380
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:33,240
He hasn't asked for me in 30 days.

381
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,920
If I go before him, he can kill me.

382
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:40,520
And then that's when that famous passage where Mordecai response says, if you think you're

383
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:44,920
going to stay in the palace, sweetie, and you're going to be unharmed, this is a Christa paraphrase,

384
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,520
if you're going to be unharmed, you're kidding yourself.

385
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:51,040
Not only are you going to be killed, God's actually just going to go ahead and raise someone

386
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,600
else up then to be the deliverer of a nation.

387
00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,960
She hears that and she hears the truth and the spirit of God on it.

388
00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:00,800
And that's when she says, okay, fast and pray for three days as my maids and I will, and

389
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:02,400
I will go before the King.

390
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,040
And if I perish, I perish.

391
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:08,800
So that's that famous scripture that we know because Mordecai say maybe you were born for

392
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:09,960
such a time as this.

393
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:11,960
So this is really powerful.

394
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:18,360
So I say all that to say, as esters are arising in this hour and God is truly releasing women,

395
00:21:18,360 --> 00:21:23,120
he's releasing men and for the Mordecais to step into position, for the esters to step

396
00:21:23,120 --> 00:21:27,800
in position, but then the Lord spoke something to me in 2024 and he said this, I'm raising

397
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:32,960
up voices in this hour to break the agenda to emasculate men in our society.

398
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:34,360
I'm going to say that again.

399
00:21:34,360 --> 00:21:35,360
So you really catch it.

400
00:21:35,360 --> 00:21:40,240
I felt like I heard the Lord say, I'm raising up voices in this hour to break the demonic

401
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,800
agenda that emasculates men in our society.

402
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,800
So I want you to understand what is emasculation.

403
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:47,800
We hear that word.

404
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:51,080
Some of you may not understand that definition and it's simplest sense.

405
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:56,160
It refers to the act of belittling, demeaning or undermining a man's masculinity.

406
00:21:56,160 --> 00:22:02,840
It can manifest as disrespecting a man's abilities, questioning his comp competency, ridiculing

407
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,760
his emotions or reducing his worth.

408
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:12,520
And you know, if we really begin to look at our society, many movies, sitcoms, narratives,

409
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:16,960
films, music is very demeaning to men.

410
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:22,720
It's very emasculating to men to the point where I see as kind of when I felt like the

411
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:27,440
Lord opened my eyes, it was interesting how the Lord will just begin to make you aware

412
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:31,080
of you have seen things, but all of a sudden you see it, see it, and that's what began

413
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:32,080
to happen.

414
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:35,720
The Lord began to speak that to me and then I kept running across stuff and I actually

415
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:36,720
ran across an interview.

416
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,040
Isn't this interesting?

417
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:42,440
And it was on a social media platform and it was asking women that are probably more

418
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,680
Gen Z, more college age.

419
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:48,440
And they're like, what's the value of men and society?

420
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:52,840
And every young woman, now the granted, this is just, this was just a random poll and I

421
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:54,520
don't even know how it popped up on my phone.

422
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,040
But I thought, well, this is interesting, right?

423
00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:59,720
Because God's already speaking to me and I'm like, what are their answers going to be?

424
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,440
Like, where's this going?

425
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,200
And every girl goes, I can't think of one reason why we need men.

426
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:07,720
And then the host, like girl was laughing and then I think a guy was there interviewing

427
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:08,720
to me.

428
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:09,720
He's like, wait, what?

429
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:11,880
And she's like, I can't think of, I can't think of one reason.

430
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:13,000
Like, what do men add?

431
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,040
Like what can men do?

432
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:16,040
How can they add?

433
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:17,640
She's like, they just create problems.

434
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:22,440
And then it was in that vein that every other woman, young woman began to answer in that

435
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:23,440
same thing.

436
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:24,440
Like there was no value.

437
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:26,920
Like no one could think of a reason why we needed men.

438
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,520
And I thought, have they not met amazing men?

439
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:30,920
Like have they not?

440
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:32,360
What's their encounter been?

441
00:23:32,360 --> 00:23:35,160
But they have been fed a doctrine, right?

442
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:41,040
They have been fed an agenda that has now become a truth for a generation where they

443
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:44,640
don't understand the value of men in our society.

444
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:46,520
And I've seen it creep into the church.

445
00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:51,240
And here's what I felt like is really important as women are arising, which is absolutely

446
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,600
biblical and it's God and it's good.

447
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:56,960
But as women arise, that is not pushing men down.

448
00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:01,800
It's actually when we are walking in kingdom and men and women together, everyone should

449
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:03,120
be thriving, right?

450
00:24:03,120 --> 00:24:07,880
So women should be in their fullness of who they are unapologetically and women should

451
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:12,920
be able to be strong and powerful and anointed and clear on who they are.

452
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,920
Like come on, Deborah as an Esther is like, know who you are.

453
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:21,240
And men equally should be strong and powerful and know who they are unapologetically.

454
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:25,960
And there shouldn't be a shame in either gender walking in our fullness.

455
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,200
And I feel like there's been a shame over men.

456
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:33,160
And I felt like God wanted to break the shame off of men in our society.

457
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:39,240
And I think us as women, as we're arising, that might feel like an unusual and even unexpected

458
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:44,640
thing to address as a woman, because I think a lot of people view our society as favorable

459
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:45,640
toward men.

460
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:47,600
And I think historically that's probably true.

461
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:53,840
I think it has been a masculine focused culture and there has been toxic things connected

462
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:54,840
with that.

463
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:55,920
There has been dysfunction.

464
00:24:55,920 --> 00:25:01,560
But I think there's an opportunity here to actually restore it, restore who we are in

465
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:02,840
God and the fullness.

466
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:07,840
And I think we cannot expect society to restore something the church has not established.

467
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:13,600
I think this is an invitation in this hour for the church to establish the value of men

468
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:18,200
and women not in competition and not in comparison with one another.

469
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:24,360
But in the fullness of who God created us to be together side by side, if we're actually

470
00:25:24,360 --> 00:25:28,720
going to establish the Esther company, we have to establish the Mordecai's.

471
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:30,880
Like one doesn't exist without the other.

472
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:32,440
You have to have both.

473
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:36,840
And so I feel like the Lord is putting this on people's hearts right now.

474
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:40,520
And I haven't really heard anyone talk about this, but I feel like it's going to become

475
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:41,520
a conversation.

476
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:42,520
Yes.

477
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:44,200
And I feel like I have to bring it forth.

478
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:48,880
Like we have to break the semasculation of men in the society.

479
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:52,160
And what's interesting, and you were there, of course, and my conference, I'm a mentor,

480
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,440
my closed it out the conference.

481
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:56,640
And I had men that resonated with this.

482
00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:00,520
This felt like this minister, like hit them personally.

483
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:01,720
I had them stand.

484
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:03,240
And there was many men that stood.

485
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:04,440
And there were.

486
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:08,400
And there was healing and deliverance that happened where we're able to break off that

487
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,880
shame and that undermining and that devalue.

488
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:18,160
Because I'm not okay if the full bride isn't in the God identity they were created to be

489
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:19,160
in.

490
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,760
If only half the church is walking in our fullness and the other half is in.

491
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:23,760
And that goes both ways.

492
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:27,400
The women of God up until this point haven't really been in our fullness.

493
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:28,960
So we're now stepping into that.

494
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:32,520
But as we step into that, I just feel like we got to make sure there's not this shame

495
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:33,680
still stuck on men.

496
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:37,120
Like there's all of us kind of going to this new place of freedom.

497
00:26:37,120 --> 00:26:39,680
That's what's available right now in the body of Christ.

498
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:41,680
You know, I think you're absolutely right on that.

499
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,040
And I haven't heard anyone speak on that as well.

500
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:49,640
And you know, it's funny as I think is maybe in one aspect of it as strategic, maybe as

501
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:53,480
some people perceive, for instance, let's say the Barbie movie in that sense, that it

502
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:55,720
was kind of like a woman empowerment.

503
00:26:55,720 --> 00:27:01,080
But there were overtures and this kind of undercurrent of like anti-can, you know, it's

504
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:05,840
like under the actor Ryan Gosling, you know, even saying a song in there.

505
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:09,400
And I think it really does as well as the interviews you were talking about.

506
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:10,840
I think there really is that.

507
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:15,640
And at the end of the day, what we have to come to is to understand it's got to be kingdom.

508
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:17,720
What does the Bible say?

509
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,680
What does the word of God say?

510
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:24,720
And there is this place of honor and there has to be an honor and has to go both ways.

511
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:29,760
And if it doesn't go both ways and it just goes one way, then it ceases to be kingdom,

512
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:30,760
ceases to be blessed.

513
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:31,960
It will not get off the ground.

514
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:35,000
It will not build unless the Lord builds the house in labor and vein.

515
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:39,960
The Lord, if you're not building your life, your future, your value system, what we pour

516
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:43,040
into the next generation, there are people out there, you got kids, you're raising up

517
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,240
little girls, you're raising up little boys.

518
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,200
What do you want them to catch from you?

519
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:53,360
And if they catch a disrespect for a gender, a man hating.

520
00:27:53,360 --> 00:27:58,080
And obviously, like you said, it's been a good old boy, good old boy club for too long.

521
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,880
And his grievance, we've been talking to a girl that is in a major movement and she

522
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:06,400
was just saying that basically women in the movement she's at aren't able to speak and

523
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,000
just look down upon it.

524
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:11,440
And it was like, it was like, get out, get out.

525
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:14,080
She had a call like, get out.

526
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:18,480
And I feel like it's so cool that we have seen conferences for while there was just all men.

527
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,680
Now we're beginning to see women.

528
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,800
And now even women are speaking to men more and more and more.

529
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:27,280
But like you said, there was that man hating spirit because you brought out a good point

530
00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:34,200
too that the early feminist manifesto, one of their goals in view, their in game was

531
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,280
emasculation of man.

532
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,000
And that's totally what happened.

533
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:43,000
Any males that got around Jezebel, she made them in the Unix.

534
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:47,000
And that's why Jehu said to the Unix, throw Jezebel out the window.

535
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:51,960
In other words, she, this spirit has emasculated you.

536
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,440
This is your chance to cast that down.

537
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:56,240
So I think that's so profound.

538
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,760
You know, it was interesting is that I was, I was studying this and we're preparing for

539
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:01,080
my session at Momentum.

540
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:06,360
I found it interesting statistic and I felt like the Lord spoke to me and you people couldn't

541
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:07,680
agree or disagree with me.

542
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:08,680
I'm fine with that.

543
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:13,000
I just, I'm just simply sharing a, it's very subjective, but this is what I felt like the

544
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:19,040
Lord said, you know, right now in history, historically, men historically have the lowest

545
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:21,880
levels of testosterone that they've ever had.

546
00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:25,640
And the medical community has no explanation right now.

547
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:31,400
Right now, historically, they're saying 20 something year old men have the testosterone

548
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,640
levels of a 60 something year old man.

549
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:34,640
Wow.

550
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:37,680
And so there's been a massive decrease of this hormone.

551
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:41,120
And I think, and so I began to pray into that because I was like, the medical community

552
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:42,520
cannot explain it.

553
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:43,520
Hmm.

554
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:44,800
I'm going to follow that trail spiritually.

555
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:46,640
Jesus, what do you say about that?

556
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:50,200
We have a, we have a physical symptom with no explanation.

557
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,080
It's the lowest to spend historically.

558
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:56,440
We have 20 something year old men that have the testosterone of 60 something year old

559
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:57,440
men.

560
00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:58,440
They have never seen this historically.

561
00:29:58,440 --> 00:29:59,960
They have no explanation why.

562
00:29:59,960 --> 00:30:04,520
And I heard the Lord say because of the spirit of emasculation that has gone after men that

563
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:07,640
this is a physical symptom of a spiritual problem.

564
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:08,640
Wow.

565
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:09,640
Hey, y'all, we do call this, keep your 100.

566
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:11,800
How many of you know right now we're keeping it 100?

567
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:12,800
Yeah.

568
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:20,160
And I, I felt like that is a physical symptom of a spiritual issue that when the church breaks

569
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:25,720
this over men and breaks this in our nation, that's when testosterone levels, I would love

570
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:26,720
to see, right?

571
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:28,440
If you break it, I'd love to see those.

572
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:29,920
What if they just begin to rise?

573
00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:35,520
Like there would be a physical symptom, a measurable symptom where they're like, we don't know why

574
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:40,640
they were down, but now they're back up because the church goes after demonic spirit that's

575
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:46,520
trying to actually hold men down because testosterone is a key reproductive hormone.

576
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:50,200
So fertility rates are at an all time low in addition to that.

577
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:56,400
So if you have all time low fertility rates and you're having a harder time reproducing,

578
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,400
yeah, follow that trail spiritually.

579
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:03,760
I think there's a demonic agenda on that and people may agree or disagree with me.

580
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:04,760
That's fine.

581
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,240
But when I took it to prayer, that's what I heard.

582
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:10,600
And I just thought, okay, I want to see the body of Christ thrive.

583
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:14,800
And I think there's an invitation to go after something that is holding half the body of

584
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,200
Christ down and back, you know?

585
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:18,600
And I think you brought up a great point.

586
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:24,480
I want the next generation of young men to go, oh man, women are amazing, powerful, anointed,

587
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:25,480
strong.

588
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:30,260
I want the next generation of young women to go, men are amazing, powerful and strong.

589
00:31:30,260 --> 00:31:34,040
And there's this healthy expectation of who we're called to be.

590
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:35,280
That's what I want to model.

591
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:38,840
I don't want to model anyone being suppressed or dominated.

592
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:42,280
I want us to walk as God has called us to walk.

593
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:46,080
You know, it's funny because, you know, this generation, they want family, but if you're

594
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,760
being interviewed and you're going, what good is meant for?

595
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:50,360
Like it's almost a contradiction.

596
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:54,400
Like how are you going to have family, have kids and you have no respect for male and

597
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:55,880
you don't see the value of it?

598
00:31:55,880 --> 00:32:01,200
So it's an indirect, not only attack on men, it's an attack on the family.

599
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:02,760
That is just so profound.

600
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:06,960
Hey, Christa, you know, another thing that you spoke of at the conference that was really

601
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:11,880
profound is you, you kind of talked about the spirit of betrayal.

602
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:17,120
And I was immediately thinking about a Judas, you know, we talk about a Jesus people movement.

603
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:20,520
Well, when the original Jesus people move, and I'm not talking about the hippies, I'm

604
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:25,720
talking about when Jesus walked the earth, what rose up against his movement was betrayal,

605
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:26,720
you know, Judas.

606
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:30,680
And so talk to us about, you were seeing this thing about this year, about the spirit of

607
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:31,680
betrayal.

608
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:32,680
Yeah.

609
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:36,000
I heard the Lord say, as I was just waiting on him for like, Lord, what do you declare

610
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:37,000
in over 2024?

611
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:41,640
And I heard the Lord say, the enemy has unleashed a spirit of betrayal in the land.

612
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,120
This is the hour of the Judices.

613
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:44,680
And I know that's a bit heavy.

614
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:49,080
And I know I've probably sounded lightweight negative on the things that I've heard.

615
00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:53,320
If you go back to our previous podcast episode, I have a lot of really positive things that

616
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:54,320
I say.

617
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:55,320
So this is a bit of a part two.

618
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,400
This is probably a little heavier.

619
00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:02,040
But I think it's important that we talk about the positive, but this is also sometimes when

620
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:05,640
we call out, maybe what we've reviewed is more negative.

621
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:06,720
I don't really view it as negative.

622
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:08,160
I view it as strategy.

623
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:09,560
And so consider the strategy.

624
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:13,120
So in second, Timothy three versus one through five, I'm going to read this because I want

625
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:14,120
you to catch this.

626
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:17,760
It says, you should know this, Timothy, that in the last days, there will be very difficult

627
00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:22,360
times for people will love, love only themselves and their money.

628
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:27,320
They will be boastful, proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents and ungrateful.

629
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:29,960
They will consider nothing sacred.

630
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:31,880
They will be unloving, unforgiving.

631
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:34,480
They will slander others and have no self control.

632
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:37,040
They will be cruel and hate what is good.

633
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:38,040
Catch this.

634
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:42,800
They will betray their friends, be reckless, be puffed up with pride, love, pleasure rather

635
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:43,800
than God.

636
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:45,080
They will act religious.

637
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:46,640
Oh my goodness.

638
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:51,040
But they will reject the power that could make them godly, stay away from people like

639
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:52,040
that.

640
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:54,920
So verse four, we read it says they will betray their friends.

641
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,560
And the Lord highlighted this like it jumped off the page.

642
00:33:57,560 --> 00:33:59,400
He said, you know, go to second Timothy.

643
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:00,400
I went to that.

644
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,720
I read this and it just like jumped off the page.

645
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:06,360
They will betray their friends and that's when the Lord says a spirit of betrayal has

646
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:08,200
been unleashed in the land.

647
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:13,640
It's the hour of the Judas is and I felt like the Lord said in the season, we must be diligent

648
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:18,840
about whom we allow into our lives, not from a place of fear or not from a place of elite

649
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:25,680
ism, but from a place of wisdom and that the Lord is really telling us to really guard our

650
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:32,240
peace and to guard whom we allow to speak into our life and whom we share our heart with,

651
00:34:32,240 --> 00:34:37,280
whom we really allow to influence our life.

652
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:40,880
And I felt like the Lord says, I will give you wisdom and discernment, but I spoke, I

653
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:45,480
shared this last week in the podcast episode, so listen to it if you didn't, but that this

654
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:48,120
year, your, your courage is going to be called upon.

655
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:51,280
There's going to be demanding your courage and this is where some of the courage is going

656
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:52,600
to be required.

657
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:56,480
There are some relationships that are going to have to be adjusted into your life.

658
00:34:56,480 --> 00:35:00,760
Some of them may have to be fully like cut out and I don't love saying that, but I think

659
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:04,840
there just has to be some of you really hear this for what it is.

660
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:09,240
There is going to be just God's like, if you're going to go where I'm asking you to go, that

661
00:35:09,240 --> 00:35:14,720
toxic relationship, that relationship that pulls you into compromise or calls you in,

662
00:35:14,720 --> 00:35:18,880
like there's an appeal of sin in that relationship or friendship.

663
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:20,840
I'm God's like, you've got to lay that down.

664
00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,840
You have to lay down the things that are pulling you away from the Lord.

665
00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,320
But here's the thing about the Judas.

666
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:28,880
Judas was, he was at all the sermons.

667
00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:30,520
He saw the miracles.

668
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:32,080
He was in the presence of God.

669
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:36,040
He shared meals with Jesus and he remained untransformed.

670
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,560
And there's people, cause obviously we just read in 2 Timothy, this was not talking to

671
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:40,560
unbelievers.

672
00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:41,960
This was talking about believers.

673
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:47,000
So that's very like, that makes you go, whoa, Jesus, is there anything in me?

674
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:48,000
I don't know.

675
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:49,000
That's what it makes me do.

676
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:51,440
It makes me go, oh my goodness, Jesus, check me.

677
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:56,000
You know, if there's anything that is in me that opposes you, Jesus, you have full permission

678
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:57,920
to uproot that out of me.

679
00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:01,560
But I think we have to understand that as, you know, this letter is being written to

680
00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:07,120
Timothy and he's reading this and he's challenged to actually go, wow, there's people that I

681
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:12,640
do life with in the church that are actually completely remaining untransformed.

682
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:14,520
They love maybe the merch.

683
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:15,640
They love singing the songs.

684
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:19,680
They love being at all the events, but their hearts are not close to God.

685
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:23,320
And I think you can be in acquaintance with about anyone, right?

686
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:27,160
But I'm talking about the people whom you really run after God with and the people whom you

687
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:28,640
really do life with.

688
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:31,240
They have to be people that are going after God.

689
00:36:31,240 --> 00:36:36,520
And I think we have to be really honest about who those people are because I feel like the

690
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:41,280
Lord's is inviting us to go to that delivery room, that midwife room, right?

691
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:42,600
Not everyone's going to get in there.

692
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:44,000
And again, that can sound really elite.

693
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,800
And I'm not trying to make anything elite.

694
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:52,640
I think there's, I think if anyone comes fully consecrated to God and comes like in repentance,

695
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:55,840
even if they're walking in things that aren't great, God's going to let you in.

696
00:36:55,840 --> 00:37:00,520
It's just, it's a matter of like having a soft heart, a tender heart, a heart that's

697
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:03,160
being willing to be moldable and teachable before the Lord.

698
00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:04,360
That's what God's looking for, right?

699
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,520
Because David is a great example of that.

700
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:07,520
David wasn't perfect.

701
00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:08,520
David messed up.

702
00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:12,280
But what I love is David was always referred to as a man after my own heart because it

703
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:15,760
wasn't that he was perfect because he was repentant and he was tender to other things

704
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:16,760
of God.

705
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:17,760
So there is that on ramp.

706
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,480
I do want to qualify that and bring balance to what I'm saying.

707
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:25,600
But at the same time, I feel like we have to use discernment and you have to be honest

708
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:26,600
in this season.

709
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:27,600
I love what you're sharing.

710
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:30,320
And I think, you know, when you're talking about, you have to use discernment.

711
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:34,680
I think one of the things that I immediately came to mind as you were saying that is, you

712
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:39,360
know, I would often counsel, you know, singles as it relates to getting married and we would

713
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:43,720
say, particularly the young ladies, we go, if the dude isn't faithful to Jesus, he isn't

714
00:37:43,720 --> 00:37:44,720
going to be faithful to you.

715
00:37:44,720 --> 00:37:49,000
In other words, if he would betray Jesus, he's going to betray you.

716
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,000
And then I think another thing, you know, just in discernment, you would discern that

717
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:57,240
because how faithful is a person to Jesus, if they would betray their faith for popularity,

718
00:37:57,240 --> 00:38:00,840
they would betray their faith because the heat is on, they would betray their faith

719
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:04,600
because they could run with a group or get a raise or you go on and on and on.

720
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,760
They're going to betray you in terms of you getting a relationship.

721
00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:12,720
But the other thing is people that betray confidences, you know, if you see someone putting

722
00:38:12,720 --> 00:38:16,840
somebody else's business out there, as we used to say, putting it out in the streets,

723
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:18,880
you got to know they're going to do that to you too.

724
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:24,840
So I totally, totally am hearing and just going, wow, I absolutely feel like there's

725
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:25,840
something on that.

726
00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:26,840
Oh, that's good.

727
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:28,360
I'm so glad you added that.

728
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:29,360
That's so good.

729
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:32,560
You know, and then I, as I was spending time with God about this, I felt like God even

730
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:33,800
kind of flipped the script though.

731
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,960
So there's that, the Judas is, and then I felt like the Lord says, but don't you become

732
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:37,960
a Judas?

733
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:38,960
Right?

734
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,520
Cause you can hear this word and think, oh, who's going to betray me?

735
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:44,960
Or you're kind of like, but then it's like, well, we could be the betrayer.

736
00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:46,120
Let's be honest about that.

737
00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:47,120
Right?

738
00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:48,840
Like, did Judas know that was in him?

739
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:49,840
Probably not.

740
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:50,840
Like, right?

741
00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:51,840
You don't quite know.

742
00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:52,920
Sometimes you're deceived.

743
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:55,080
That's why it's called deception.

744
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:59,200
And you don't know necessarily sometimes what's in you and tell you don't get your way or

745
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:01,320
you don't get what you want, which was Judas.

746
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:07,040
He had an agenda and his agenda became more important than Jesus and he then ended up

747
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:09,820
a train because his agenda was more important.

748
00:39:09,820 --> 00:39:13,680
So I felt like the Lord says, be diligent in keeping your heart pure and keeping your

749
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,720
heart clean and keeping your heart unaffended.

750
00:39:16,720 --> 00:39:18,800
Because if you look at the model of Judas, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's

751
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,400
he got offended and he got judgmental.

752
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:25,840
He got accusatory and then he took matters into his own hands and then he made a whole

753
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:27,160
mess of things.

754
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:32,040
And so he ended up betraying, betraying the one that was loyal to him, the one that could

755
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,080
have healed him, the one that could have set him free.

756
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:37,360
He's actually the one that led Jesus to the cross.

757
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:40,640
And so I felt like it's, it goes two ways.

758
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:45,400
It's like there has been a spirit of betrayal unleashed and this is the hour of the Judas.

759
00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:50,080
That means be aware of people not being truthful to you or having a good agenda towards you

760
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:53,360
or having a good motive to you, but then are you that person?

761
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:55,800
Are you the one that could betray?

762
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:59,640
And I felt like this was really important when it comes to covenant relationships because

763
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,200
the enemy hates covenant relationships.

764
00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:03,400
And what did Judas do?

765
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,880
He betrayed a covenant relationship.

766
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:12,200
And I felt like in the area of people's marriages, even the areas of spiritual relationships,

767
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:17,000
you know, spiritual moms and dads or spiritual family or people that you have been really

768
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:20,080
called to serve or work with or come alongside.

769
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:23,680
If you're not careful in the season, you could become offended and the people you were called

770
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,720
to serve, you now betray.

771
00:40:25,720 --> 00:40:27,800
And God is saying, keep your heart clean.

772
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:34,600
Do not take the bait of the enemy of offense or accusation or self selfish ambition.

773
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:39,760
But if you keep your heart pure before me, you will not only guard, but you will actually

774
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:41,760
deepen your covenant relationships.

775
00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:42,880
Oh, that's so good.

776
00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:46,200
I think that antidote to betrayal is be loyal.

777
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:47,520
Yeah, that's good.

778
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,960
Like if you're really focusing on, I'm going to be loyal to Jesus.

779
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,960
I'm going to be loyal to his word written scripture.

780
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:56,560
I'm going to be loyal to the house of God.

781
00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,440
I'm going to be loyal to my, my friends.

782
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:01,720
I'm going to be loyal to my family members.

783
00:41:01,720 --> 00:41:07,280
I think when you put that out there and that becomes your end game, then I think you punch

784
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:08,720
betrayal in the mouth.

785
00:41:08,720 --> 00:41:15,040
I love what you're saying that people do get offended before they betray because it justifies

786
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:16,040
the betrayal.

787
00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:19,120
I'll breach loyalty because I'm, I'm upset.

788
00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:20,120
I'm mad.

789
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:21,120
I'm hurt.

790
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:22,560
And I could just see where that thing continually spirals.

791
00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:27,640
And before you know it, you got this pride in the fact that you're betraying and really

792
00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:30,480
it's just narcissism is what it is at the end of the day.

793
00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:34,480
You know, I'll end with this of just what I want to share with all of you of what I

794
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:35,680
heard the Lord say.

795
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:37,160
And I just want to declare this over you.

796
00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:40,920
If you're a listener and you're just taking time, just if you're able, like just getting

797
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:45,920
a quiet place or close your eyes and just receive this because I just believe as I declare

798
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:50,000
over you, it's just something I got prophetically and I just want you to hear this for your

799
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:51,000
heart.

800
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:54,680
I heard the Lord say 2024 is the year of knowing my name.

801
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:57,160
I am Jehovah Jireh, your provider.

802
00:41:57,160 --> 00:41:58,320
I am your healer.

803
00:41:58,320 --> 00:41:59,320
I'm your restore.

804
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:01,640
I'm the mender of the broken things.

805
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:03,440
I am the God who sees you.

806
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:05,560
You can never escape my gaze.

807
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,920
This is the time to tuck away into my presence.

808
00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:09,320
I'm your anchor.

809
00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:10,920
I am your anchor.

810
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:11,920
Nothing else.

811
00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:13,040
I am your safe place.

812
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:14,040
No one else.

813
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:17,200
I am your sounding board, the giver of wisdom and counsel.

814
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:18,520
Wait upon my spirit to guide you.

815
00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:20,520
I will not lead you astray.

816
00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:25,160
This is the year of total dependence, trusting me beyond your current capacity.

817
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:28,360
This is the year you'll step beyond the disappointment and you'll thrive.

818
00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:31,160
This is the year of experiencing me in new ways.

819
00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:34,560
I've built you differently for exactly this time.

820
00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:39,360
This is the year of imagination and dreaming, a year of reconnecting and reigning.

821
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:42,760
This is the year of turning a new page, starting fresh, starting new.

822
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:47,560
This is the year of taking off the grieving clothes and finding fresh purpose and vision.

823
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:49,360
This is the year of momentum.

824
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:50,360
I love that.

825
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:51,360
I think that's so profound.

826
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:56,800
And I think one of the things that becomes, I think just the walk away of it all is just

827
00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:59,840
to stay Jesus focused, focus.

828
00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:04,080
The Bible talks about in Philippians 4, whatever is on or is just, lovely, good reputed in

829
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:07,160
the excellence, anything where they're placed, let your mind dwell on these things.

830
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:10,480
