00:00.000 --> 00:07.300
I hope everyone's doing well, um, laid on my heart of what to pray about this morning,

00:08.000 --> 00:11.400
um, and hopefully we'll have some time to pray.

00:12.580 --> 00:17.560
But, um, kind of going a little bit, Pastor Vern did it last Sunday.

00:17.760 --> 00:20.420
It's a recap of what Open Heavens was.

00:21.980 --> 00:25.860
And, um, what the Lord laid on my heart.

00:25.920 --> 00:28.400
Now, I wasn't here in every single service,

00:28.400 --> 00:30.980
um, but I wasn't here for half of them.

00:31.480 --> 00:32.620
The other half I watched.

00:33.760 --> 00:36.600
And something that the Lord laid heavy on my heart,

00:36.940 --> 00:39.720
which we all kind of experience with every Open Heaven.

00:40.440 --> 00:42.800
But, um, that this is our assignment.

00:43.120 --> 00:46.820
This is our homework, um, for this year, 2026.

00:47.300 --> 00:51.460
And it's kind of self-explanatory of, like, well, obviously there's a reason

00:51.460 --> 00:54.140
why we have Open Heavens in the beginning of the year.

00:54.140 --> 00:57.020
You know, we're allowing the heavens to, we're not,

00:57.460 --> 01:00.040
we're asking for the heavens to open down.

01:00.560 --> 01:03.380
Um, so that we can encounter the Lord, we can know Him.

01:03.620 --> 01:07.060
And it gives us, in a way, a direction for the rest of the year.

01:08.320 --> 01:11.140
And so we all kind of have that understanding of it.

01:11.280 --> 01:14.760
But I just felt an emphasis on, like,

01:15.900 --> 01:19.020
like, we have to pay attention to what was spoken to us.

01:19.040 --> 01:22.580
Because not only was it good, but, man, it was convicting.

01:23.300 --> 01:25.480
And, like, Pastor Igor said, too,

01:26.140 --> 01:29.640
we, we passed through a threshold.

01:29.820 --> 01:30.700
Is that how you said it?

01:31.220 --> 01:34.580
We passed through a threshold, and there's no going back now.

01:35.440 --> 01:38.000
And so I think we just have to be attentive to that.

01:38.540 --> 01:43.200
And so, um, so Open Heavens 2026,

01:43.780 --> 01:46.600
it's like an outline that God has given to us

01:46.600 --> 01:49.320
to put into practice for 2026.

01:49.320 --> 01:53.880
And it is His expectation for us as individuals

01:53.880 --> 01:56.080
to make up this local body.

01:57.900 --> 02:00.280
So He is testing us this year,

02:00.440 --> 02:03.020
and this is kind of what I got, was the Lord said,

02:03.060 --> 02:05.640
hey, this is gonna be our guideline,

02:05.940 --> 02:08.900
what He expects from us in 2026.

02:09.720 --> 02:12.300
And He's gonna see in 2026

02:12.300 --> 02:15.360
who, in this local body, who is faithful.

02:17.220 --> 02:18.740
He said, I gave you an assignment.

02:18.740 --> 02:20.040
This is now your homework.

02:20.720 --> 02:23.560
He's like, I gave, Igor said, Pastor Igor said this, too.

02:23.660 --> 02:28.320
He said, it's like He gave us all the answers before the test.

02:28.940 --> 02:32.980
And now, the day after Open Heavens, that Monday,

02:33.660 --> 02:35.100
that's when the test began.

02:36.960 --> 02:39.400
And the Lord is saying, I gave you this homework,

02:39.560 --> 02:41.800
this assignment, these answers to this test,

02:41.920 --> 02:42.760
and now it's starting.

02:43.520 --> 02:45.920
Now I will see who's gonna be faithful.

02:47.440 --> 02:49.560
Like Pastor Igor also said,

02:51.520 --> 02:53.520
we have passed through a threshold

02:53.520 --> 02:55.380
that we can no longer go back,

02:55.960 --> 02:57.420
and nor should we want to.

02:58.520 --> 02:59.060
Right?

03:00.020 --> 03:02.740
Now I feel like when we pass through something,

03:02.900 --> 03:04.780
it's always somewhat bittersweet.

03:06.100 --> 03:07.380
Like for an example,

03:07.520 --> 03:09.740
when you are in a newborn stage with kids,

03:10.340 --> 03:11.780
it's so exhausting.

03:12.000 --> 03:13.860
You're like, I can't wait for the next thing.

03:14.360 --> 03:15.920
But then when the next thing comes,

03:16.080 --> 03:19.080
you're like, oh, but like, I love this stage, right?

03:20.100 --> 03:21.600
And I feel like we as humans,

03:21.800 --> 03:24.400
we have that like tie to both,

03:24.620 --> 03:26.760
where we are excited for the new,

03:27.300 --> 03:29.200
but we're also bittersweet where we're like,

03:29.280 --> 03:30.640
oh man, but I love this.

03:32.480 --> 03:37.600
And so I feel like this threshold that we passed through,

03:37.680 --> 03:38.780
that Pastor Igor is saying,

03:38.920 --> 03:40.260
and we don't want to go back,

03:40.480 --> 03:41.560
I don't want to go back.

03:42.040 --> 03:44.560
But there is this bittersweet where we're like,

03:44.640 --> 03:46.440
wow, what we had was special.

03:47.480 --> 03:48.340
And to be honest,

03:48.560 --> 03:51.440
I don't think a lot of us knew that at that time.

03:51.840 --> 03:55.080
And unfortunately, a lot of us don't realize until it's over.

03:56.160 --> 03:58.720
And that's the beauty of being with the Lord

03:58.720 --> 04:00.220
and being in his presence,

04:00.340 --> 04:02.620
because he keeps us present.

04:03.560 --> 04:06.620
He gives us an understanding of what we're actually going through

04:06.620 --> 04:08.720
and appreciating what we're going through.

04:08.720 --> 04:11.920
I think it was Amanda Hill who was saying this,

04:12.000 --> 04:14.080
but I love how she said,

04:14.200 --> 04:15.980
where with the enemy,

04:16.820 --> 04:19.140
and I don't remember all the points,

04:19.300 --> 04:21.400
with the enemy it's like lies and deception,

04:21.920 --> 04:22.740
or his tools,

04:23.280 --> 04:26.880
but with God it's thankfulness and gratitude.

04:28.340 --> 04:30.500
And so when we are thankful in gratitude,

04:31.360 --> 04:33.400
or we are thankful and have gratitude,

04:33.540 --> 04:35.580
we can be grounded in what we're going through.

04:36.200 --> 04:38.460
So what we had last year,

04:38.700 --> 04:40.420
and the years past was good,

04:41.280 --> 04:43.200
and it brought us to this moment.

04:43.380 --> 04:46.700
It's a beautiful thing to be able to be brought to the threshold

04:46.700 --> 04:49.040
and to be able to pass it,

04:49.140 --> 04:50.860
because we did not do that.

04:50.920 --> 04:51.600
It was the Lord.

04:53.680 --> 04:56.800
All we did was repent and say,

04:57.120 --> 04:57.600
yes, my Lord.

04:58.860 --> 05:00.460
And that's his qualifications.

05:00.900 --> 05:02.840
That's his requirement for us.

05:03.400 --> 05:07.700
So we didn't bring ourselves to the threshold.

05:08.860 --> 05:10.140
He brought us there.

05:10.620 --> 05:11.840
And it was only by our obedience.

05:14.400 --> 05:17.320
So he is testing us this year to see

05:19.500 --> 05:21.920
if we will take what he has given us

05:21.920 --> 05:23.440
and work it out in our lives

05:24.040 --> 05:26.900
so that to see if he can trust us in the years ahead,

05:27.160 --> 05:29.620
because there is prophecy that the babes are coming.

05:30.700 --> 05:33.060
Obviously, we're building a building too.

05:33.620 --> 05:37.320
That's not out of necessity.

05:37.780 --> 05:39.040
It's not out of our desire.

05:39.360 --> 05:40.260
It's what the Lord wants.

05:41.820 --> 05:43.620
And so in order for that to come,

05:44.380 --> 05:45.940
and we're kind of instilling this

05:45.940 --> 05:48.240
in our local body right now in our church,

05:48.880 --> 05:52.400
we are prepping as if we are already

05:52.400 --> 05:56.300
a five to seven hundred people member church,

05:56.680 --> 05:57.920
or covenant partner church.

05:58.700 --> 06:00.260
And that's how you prepare.

06:00.460 --> 06:02.460
You prepare now for that.

06:03.040 --> 06:04.980
And I like how Amanda Hill also,

06:05.200 --> 06:06.260
I believe she said,

06:06.780 --> 06:08.030
she said the Lord will provide

06:08.680 --> 06:11.080
not where you're at, but where you should be.

06:11.600 --> 06:13.360
And once you start walking there,

06:13.400 --> 06:14.180
then he'll provide.

06:17.180 --> 06:20.520
So now that we did,

06:21.060 --> 06:22.960
will you be faithful to him this year

06:22.960 --> 06:25.240
in implementing what he has given to us as homework?

06:25.240 --> 06:28.080
And that's really what's important.

06:28.600 --> 06:30.740
That's what we really should be focusing on

06:30.740 --> 06:32.140
because there was a lot of good things

06:32.140 --> 06:35.880
that was said and spoken, prophesied, declared.

06:37.280 --> 06:39.600
But now it's actually walking the walk.

06:41.100 --> 06:42.880
And the deeper we go in him,

06:43.620 --> 06:45.640
the deeper is the responsibility.

06:48.480 --> 06:50.520
It's keeping our convictions

06:50.520 --> 06:52.420
and our homework as well as,

06:52.460 --> 06:53.980
which I think is the most important,

06:53.980 --> 06:57.700
the deeper we can hurt him with our decisions.

06:58.740 --> 07:01.640
So there's responsibility in everything that we do

07:01.640 --> 07:04.020
and we learn that from infancy.

07:04.920 --> 07:07.920
But when we take a step in growth,

07:08.880 --> 07:11.520
there's responsibility, a greater responsibility.

07:13.460 --> 07:16.240
And so with this passing through this threshold,

07:17.360 --> 07:19.540
we no longer can go back

07:19.540 --> 07:21.040
and don't want to go back.

07:21.040 --> 07:24.100
But we also have to understand,

07:24.860 --> 07:27.440
as exciting as it is what's to come,

07:30.140 --> 07:32.700
there's a heavy responsibility in us now.

07:33.940 --> 07:36.780
We no longer can come before the Lord and say,

07:36.840 --> 07:38.780
well, I did not know, you didn't tell me.

07:40.260 --> 07:42.360
He gave us all the answers.

07:47.500 --> 07:50.820
And the hard part is that when we do make a wrong decision,

07:51.500 --> 07:52.800
we hurt him deeply.

07:53.500 --> 07:55.960
And we always have to have that in the back of our mind

07:55.960 --> 07:57.260
that's called the fear of the Lord.

07:59.020 --> 08:01.260
It's not we fear him and we all know this.

08:01.360 --> 08:04.700
It's not we fear him because he can destroy us,

08:04.760 --> 08:07.760
which he can, but it's a fear out of love.

08:09.440 --> 08:12.140
I don't want to hurt my husband in any capacity.

08:12.680 --> 08:17.240
So there is a fear that I have in every decision that I make.

08:17.440 --> 08:19.120
And so we always have to have that concealing

08:19.120 --> 08:19.840
in the back of our mind,

08:19.900 --> 08:21.720
especially since we passed through this threshold.

08:22.720 --> 08:25.860
So I want to review a basic summary

08:25.860 --> 08:28.120
of what each word was given to us.

08:29.560 --> 08:33.200
And then at the end, I want to give, in a way,

08:33.280 --> 08:36.120
my assignment to you or encouragement to you

08:36.120 --> 08:38.300
of what to do with this information,

08:38.520 --> 08:40.520
some practical things, because that's what I am.

08:40.580 --> 08:41.560
I'm very practical.

08:42.500 --> 08:44.080
You can tell me the fire of God,

08:44.220 --> 08:46.720
and I'm like, okay, now is it tangible?

08:46.720 --> 08:48.760
Like describe it to me as a feeling.

08:48.880 --> 08:51.280
I'm very practical. I need to know these things.

08:52.760 --> 08:56.840
So on Sunday, Pastor Brad Breedy, he talked about prayer.

08:57.920 --> 08:59.700
And maybe for some of you,

08:59.880 --> 09:03.080
the type of prayer that he was talking about was very foreign.

09:05.360 --> 09:10.340
And a little bit later on, Pastor Vito Kashubin,

09:11.120 --> 09:16.100
he is someone that Igor and I did ministry at the church with.

09:16.100 --> 09:20.140
And he brought to me this perspective of prayer,

09:20.680 --> 09:24.260
of this laborious, Holy Spirit driven,

09:24.380 --> 09:27.340
fervent, travailing, deep realm of prayer.

09:27.820 --> 09:32.140
And I'm so grateful for Vito for instilling that in us

09:32.140 --> 09:34.160
and giving us an experience in that

09:34.160 --> 09:37.400
because you won't know until you're there,

09:37.660 --> 09:39.740
like Pastor Brad was trying to share.

09:40.360 --> 09:42.440
Some of these things you just can't explain.

09:42.600 --> 09:44.020
You just have to be there.

09:44.020 --> 09:46.200
You have to seek it out.

09:46.500 --> 09:48.360
And then the Holy Spirit will come.

09:48.440 --> 09:48.960
And then you're like,

09:49.040 --> 09:50.980
oh, I remember he was talking about this.

09:51.080 --> 09:53.220
This is what it looks like. This is what it feels like.

09:54.160 --> 09:56.140
So it's a prayer that's laborious.

09:56.280 --> 09:58.440
It's Holy Spirit driven. It's fervent.

09:58.560 --> 10:01.840
It's travailing. And it's a deeper realm of prayer.

10:03.360 --> 10:05.300
It's a prayer that gets things done

10:05.300 --> 10:07.840
and it's not something we can conjure up ourselves.

10:08.860 --> 10:12.020
But it comes from trust of the Holy Spirit

10:12.020 --> 10:16.120
that we are committed and he leads us into that kind of prayer.

10:16.960 --> 10:21.340
And that's a prayer that we should not strive to do ourselves

10:21.880 --> 10:23.900
but desire to go to.

10:24.940 --> 10:27.980
We should be a people of prayer.

10:29.600 --> 10:30.180
We should.

10:30.740 --> 10:32.820
I mean, that is one of the themes

10:32.820 --> 10:35.560
I noticed through this open heavens

10:35.560 --> 10:38.200
is many people were talking about prayer.

10:43.810 --> 10:46.490
On Monday, prophet Brian Holly,

10:46.630 --> 10:49.030
I was not here for this but I did listen to it.

10:50.650 --> 10:54.350
It says leadership driven congregants

10:54.350 --> 10:58.130
that are fueled by a choice made in your heart

10:58.130 --> 11:00.190
for a deep passion for Jesus.

11:01.270 --> 11:02.490
That was a summary.

11:03.970 --> 11:06.270
Leadership driven congregants

11:07.070 --> 11:11.090
that are fueled by a choice made in your heart

11:11.090 --> 11:12.750
for a deep passion for Jesus.

11:14.490 --> 11:16.330
That was the other theme that I noticed

11:16.330 --> 11:18.090
throughout this whole open heavens

11:18.090 --> 11:19.590
is the focus was Jesus.

11:21.210 --> 11:24.090
There's a lot of cool things that he does

11:24.090 --> 11:26.990
but he won't do them unless we are focused on him.

11:28.130 --> 11:30.330
He is the attraction of heaven.

11:30.990 --> 11:33.830
He should be the attraction for us here on earth.

11:37.310 --> 11:38.990
So a leader is usually,

11:39.850 --> 11:43.210
and I believe he spoke something like this

11:43.210 --> 11:45.250
or maybe the Lord was speaking to me

11:45.250 --> 11:46.710
when he was doing that revelation.

11:47.370 --> 11:51.090
But a leader is usually not wanting to do

11:51.090 --> 11:53.830
what God asks of him or her.

11:55.070 --> 11:56.550
When the Lord asks me,

11:56.630 --> 11:58.630
hey, through Pastor Vernon Mary,

11:58.770 --> 12:01.070
I want you to do the first Sunday of prayer.

12:01.730 --> 12:02.830
I don't want to do it.

12:04.930 --> 12:06.810
Do you know how hard it is to prep?

12:06.810 --> 12:10.570
Do you know how much self-death I have to do

12:10.570 --> 12:12.430
in order to be up here?

12:15.290 --> 12:20.570
I've never spoken before Word of Life.

12:21.410 --> 12:22.530
Up on stage, never.

12:22.930 --> 12:24.550
And then all of a sudden I come here

12:24.550 --> 12:27.290
and within a couple of months up on stage

12:27.290 --> 12:29.110
it's a lot of death to self.

12:30.270 --> 12:33.350
And that's one of the things I was battling with this morning.

12:34.350 --> 12:35.970
Oh, Jesus, I need you.

12:36.070 --> 12:37.770
Because literally without him I'm nothing.

12:37.930 --> 12:39.090
I have nothing to give.

12:39.790 --> 12:42.550
And it makes that scripture that Paul is talking about,

12:43.010 --> 12:45.570
I know nothing but Christ and Him crucified.

12:46.510 --> 12:48.550
And to be honest, I don't want to know nothing

12:48.550 --> 12:49.970
but Christ and Him crucified.

12:50.550 --> 12:53.010
Because in Him that's all that I need to know.

12:55.880 --> 12:58.880
So a leader, when the Lord is asking that leader

12:58.880 --> 13:00.380
to do something usually,

13:01.480 --> 13:02.800
they don't want to do it.

13:03.400 --> 13:05.800
But they do it because they love Him.

13:06.020 --> 13:08.840
Their love for Him is greater than their selfishness,

13:09.580 --> 13:10.400
than their flesh.

13:11.860 --> 13:15.000
And so you do what He's asking you to do,

13:15.100 --> 13:16.480
you take those little steps.

13:18.760 --> 13:22.280
And it's not fun, but you know there's growth in it.

13:24.300 --> 13:27.120
And sometimes I hear this a lot

13:27.120 --> 13:28.480
and I don't feel it ever.

13:30.080 --> 13:31.540
But people will say,

13:31.980 --> 13:34.860
oh pastor, you look like you just had a great week

13:34.860 --> 13:37.120
with the Lord, or you look like you spend

13:37.120 --> 13:38.440
every single day with Him,

13:38.460 --> 13:40.220
or you have so much time for Him,

13:40.240 --> 13:43.680
or you probably spend every morning with Him.

13:44.420 --> 13:48.560
And they're like, it's as if I make it look easy

13:48.560 --> 13:49.220
to you guys.

13:50.640 --> 13:52.600
Or a pastor, e-girl makes it look easy.

13:52.680 --> 13:54.780
Or a pastor in a Mary make it look easy.

13:55.060 --> 13:57.600
Or any leader in a leadership role

13:57.600 --> 13:58.520
makes it look easy.

14:01.900 --> 14:03.700
But that's because we're partly dead.

14:05.700 --> 14:08.960
You know, with growth, with understanding who He is,

14:09.520 --> 14:10.600
you have to die.

14:11.280 --> 14:13.580
You have to die to your identity

14:13.580 --> 14:16.040
and you have to take on your husband's identity.

14:17.620 --> 14:19.760
That's why I personally,

14:19.980 --> 14:21.940
my opinion it's not like needed,

14:22.120 --> 14:23.500
but I love when a woman,

14:23.840 --> 14:25.660
when a man and a woman get married

14:25.660 --> 14:28.480
and the woman takes on her husband's last name.

14:30.380 --> 14:31.460
Because she's no...

14:31.460 --> 14:34.660
Tanya Kravitz no longer exists, she's gone.

14:35.260 --> 14:37.180
She will never return, she is dead.

14:38.180 --> 14:39.500
I am now Tanya Kondratjuk.

14:41.000 --> 14:42.560
I am a new creation.

14:43.520 --> 14:46.980
And I love that because it gives me a deeper...

14:46.980 --> 14:49.420
We as women have such a privilege here on Earth.

14:49.920 --> 14:51.000
I don't think we always...

14:51.000 --> 14:53.020
we always tend to look at the negative parts

14:53.020 --> 14:55.920
of being a woman, but there's so many beautiful, positive parts.

14:56.500 --> 14:59.000
And one of them is getting to experience

14:59.000 --> 15:00.660
being a bride,

15:02.860 --> 15:05.800
being fully consumed by His identity.

15:07.000 --> 15:08.900
That wherever I go, they're like,

15:09.040 --> 15:10.860
oh, you're Pastor Igor's wife.

15:11.080 --> 15:13.240
Yes, I am Pastor Igor's wife.

15:13.480 --> 15:15.720
I'm not Tanya Kondratjuk or Pastor Tanya.

15:15.880 --> 15:16.780
I'm Pastor Igor's wife.

15:17.180 --> 15:17.960
I love that.

15:19.740 --> 15:21.780
It's an identity that I have

15:21.780 --> 15:24.600
that's obviously not grounded in my husband,

15:24.840 --> 15:27.640
but it's the idea that I'm grounded in my husband

15:27.640 --> 15:28.700
up in heaven.

15:32.100 --> 15:34.500
So the reason why leaders kind of make

15:34.500 --> 15:37.500
following God and seeking Him look easy

15:37.500 --> 15:38.940
is because they've already died.

15:39.660 --> 15:41.660
There's a reason why they're in leadership.

15:42.240 --> 15:44.220
God has found them somewhat trustworthy

15:44.220 --> 15:46.780
to bring them up to that point.

15:47.540 --> 15:49.500
And the higher He takes you,

15:49.940 --> 15:52.740
what should be is the higher you die to yourself.

15:57.150 --> 15:58.970
And there's a higher consequence,

16:00.150 --> 16:02.090
a positive consequence and a negative.

16:05.750 --> 16:08.590
Knowing your identity and security in Jesus

16:08.590 --> 16:12.270
in order to fulfill what He is asking of you,

16:12.330 --> 16:14.150
because if you don't, it will hinder you

16:14.150 --> 16:15.550
and the glory that He deserves.

16:17.890 --> 16:19.810
Pastor Prophet Holly, I apologize.

16:20.170 --> 16:22.730
Prophet Brian Holly spoke a little bit on that.

16:24.630 --> 16:26.370
I'm kind of taking what he took

16:26.370 --> 16:27.350
and I gave my own words.

16:27.530 --> 16:29.730
But if you don't know your identity

16:29.730 --> 16:31.750
and the Lord, who you are in Him,

16:33.970 --> 16:36.710
if you don't know that you are secure in Him,

16:38.130 --> 16:40.370
the more that you step to fulfill

16:40.370 --> 16:41.930
what He's asking you to do,

16:42.810 --> 16:44.630
it will actually hinder you

16:45.530 --> 16:47.830
and He won't get the glory He deserves.

16:48.790 --> 16:50.490
Because again, it's not about us.

16:50.610 --> 16:52.490
It's about Him. It's about His glory.

16:55.310 --> 16:58.470
I want my husband to be glorified.

17:01.390 --> 17:03.730
Serving Him is usually inconvenient

17:04.390 --> 17:07.370
and that's easier to hear right now

17:07.370 --> 17:09.450
than it is to actually walk it out

17:09.450 --> 17:10.330
and be in that moment.

17:11.510 --> 17:13.450
Serving the Lord, loving Him

17:13.450 --> 17:15.450
and serving Him is very inconvenient.

17:16.390 --> 17:17.730
You don't want to do it.

17:18.610 --> 17:20.350
You would rather be at home

17:20.350 --> 17:22.130
sitting on a couch with a warmer

17:22.130 --> 17:24.650
watching us the service on the TV.

17:25.590 --> 17:27.210
It's so much easier.

17:28.150 --> 17:29.930
It's not an inconvenience.

17:32.150 --> 17:34.810
Or for example, when Pastor Mary

17:34.810 --> 17:37.090
was going through cancer,

17:37.750 --> 17:39.890
it would have been easier for her

17:39.890 --> 17:41.810
to stay home and rest.

17:42.610 --> 17:45.990
No, she chose to come to service.

17:46.270 --> 17:47.990
Why? Because he is here.

17:48.770 --> 17:50.450
Her healer is here.

17:50.450 --> 17:52.550
Not because he's going to heal her

17:52.550 --> 17:54.010
but because she loves him.

17:54.770 --> 17:56.550
There's a draw to him.

17:57.790 --> 17:59.710
Now again, one of those things,

17:59.950 --> 18:01.750
if you have that legalistic mindset,

18:02.010 --> 18:03.590
the religious mindset that prophet

18:04.230 --> 18:05.650
Amanda Hill was saying,

18:06.190 --> 18:07.470
you're going to excuse, I'm like,

18:07.530 --> 18:09.470
well, that's works. We can't do that.

18:09.530 --> 18:10.910
We are preaching against works.

18:11.710 --> 18:13.410
And I feel like this year

18:13.410 --> 18:15.870
we've been trying to get

18:15.870 --> 18:17.490
and understanding the difference

18:17.490 --> 18:20.270
between works legalistically

18:21.070 --> 18:23.430
and works through the spirit.

18:27.490 --> 18:29.390
So it's easier to hear,

18:29.630 --> 18:31.390
oh yeah, serving him is inconvenient

18:32.350 --> 18:34.130
but when you're actually doing it,

18:34.390 --> 18:36.710
when you decide to commit to something

18:36.710 --> 18:39.530
to serve the vision here at this church

18:40.330 --> 18:42.290
and you're with the kids out there

18:42.290 --> 18:45.210
for 20 or for two hours,

18:46.350 --> 18:48.510
when there's a powerful prayer

18:48.510 --> 18:49.430
coming up here

18:50.190 --> 18:51.510
and all you want to do,

18:51.570 --> 18:52.730
oh, I want to go to the prayer

18:52.730 --> 18:55.250
but no, you're serving the vision.

18:55.550 --> 18:57.330
You're serving him. It's inconvenient

18:57.330 --> 18:58.310
to what you want.

19:00.350 --> 19:02.370
So that's why you build your life

19:02.370 --> 19:03.250
around him

19:03.250 --> 19:04.710
and you don't build him

19:04.710 --> 19:05.670
around your life.

19:05.790 --> 19:06.970
He's not an accessory.

19:07.430 --> 19:09.270
He's not this little doll

19:09.270 --> 19:11.510
that you can attach to your life

19:11.510 --> 19:12.670
and be like, oh Jesus,

19:14.150 --> 19:15.670
that's not who he is.

19:19.460 --> 19:21.760
You revolve your life around him.

19:24.260 --> 19:26.140
There's something that Igor and I have done

19:26.140 --> 19:27.480
ever since the kids were born.

19:28.460 --> 19:30.620
We don't live our life around the kids.

19:30.780 --> 19:32.700
There are seasons where you have to,

19:33.020 --> 19:35.300
you know, do certain things

19:35.300 --> 19:36.020
because they're little.

19:36.200 --> 19:37.040
They need that attention.

19:38.080 --> 19:41.160
But Igor and I have never lived this life,

19:41.420 --> 19:42.440
oh, it's about the kids

19:42.440 --> 19:44.280
or, you know, we got to do this

19:44.280 --> 19:45.020
because the kids,

19:46.380 --> 19:48.900
we lived our life as husband and wife

19:48.900 --> 19:50.820
and our kids revolve around us,

19:51.480 --> 19:52.980
around our activities.

19:55.990 --> 19:57.690
And that's how it is with the Lord.

19:58.730 --> 19:59.850
We are his children.

20:00.110 --> 20:02.370
He doesn't revolve his attention around us.

20:03.530 --> 20:04.390
What does Tanya need?

20:04.530 --> 20:06.350
Oh, Tanya needs this right now.

20:07.590 --> 20:09.730
No, I should revolve myself

20:09.730 --> 20:10.510
around the Lord.

20:12.470 --> 20:16.410
Okay, Tuesday, Pastor Jennifer Cannon

20:16.410 --> 20:19.630
churned a Laodicean-filled heart

20:19.630 --> 20:22.550
into a lovesick and anchored intimacy

20:22.550 --> 20:23.890
with a...

20:23.890 --> 20:25.610
Sorry, let me re-say that again.

20:26.210 --> 20:28.430
churning a Laodicean-filled heart

20:28.430 --> 20:30.370
into a lovesick bride

20:30.370 --> 20:32.450
and anchored intimacy

20:32.450 --> 20:35.210
with a foundation built on Jesus alone,

20:35.230 --> 20:37.550
which will be refined through the fire.

20:38.510 --> 20:41.430
And I love the analogy that she took out of that scripture

20:41.430 --> 20:45.590
where you can't build your house on hay and wood.

20:45.770 --> 20:46.650
It's gonna burn.

20:47.990 --> 20:50.070
The only thing you can...

20:50.070 --> 20:53.110
you can build your temple is with his gold

20:53.110 --> 20:54.810
and you have to purchase it from him.

20:54.890 --> 20:56.470
You can't go anywhere else and get it.

20:59.190 --> 21:02.570
So the Laodicean church is a strong...

21:02.570 --> 21:05.030
has a strong independent spirit.

21:05.030 --> 21:08.870
And it makes it about us and not Jesus, the people rule.

21:12.350 --> 21:16.050
You know, and one of the things that we always tend to...

21:16.050 --> 21:18.230
I think our brain does it because it justifies.

21:18.550 --> 21:20.260
I think it was...

21:22.190 --> 21:23.310
I don't remember.

21:23.610 --> 21:26.750
Amanda Hill or Pastor Jennifer.

21:28.670 --> 21:32.300
But she was saying that our brain tries to justify

21:32.630 --> 21:34.030
what's solidified in our heart.

21:36.570 --> 21:38.930
And so hearing all of these things, it's like,

21:38.970 --> 21:39.850
oh yeah, that's good.

21:40.790 --> 21:41.710
And you know what, my brain?

21:41.910 --> 21:43.510
Oh, but it'd be good for this person.

21:44.510 --> 21:45.850
And then I'm like, no.

21:46.710 --> 21:48.130
It's as if it's to me.

21:48.490 --> 21:50.350
There's a reason. I'm part of this local body.

21:50.950 --> 21:53.490
This word is being spoken to our local body.

21:54.130 --> 21:55.350
Guess who they're talking to?

21:56.190 --> 21:57.410
They're talking to us.

21:59.010 --> 22:01.750
That means these things are in us.

22:01.750 --> 22:05.550
Sometimes we try because we come to a spirit-filled church

22:05.550 --> 22:08.530
or because we have certain counters with the Lord.

22:08.650 --> 22:10.570
We sometimes think, oh, but that doesn't...

22:10.570 --> 22:12.090
It's not towards me.

22:13.650 --> 22:15.450
Again, self-righteousness.

22:15.570 --> 22:17.870
Didn't you see what I did last week?

22:18.510 --> 22:20.570
Didn't you see, Lord, I spend every day with you?

22:20.630 --> 22:21.270
What are you talking about?

22:21.370 --> 22:23.150
I have the laodicean spirit in me.

22:23.610 --> 22:25.190
Or influencing me.

22:26.070 --> 22:28.010
Or influencing my decision.

22:29.290 --> 22:31.110
Guys, they're talking to us.

22:31.250 --> 22:31.990
It's in us.

22:34.170 --> 22:36.870
This is why we have to take things seriously.

22:38.090 --> 22:40.450
Our brain wants us to reroute it.

22:40.630 --> 22:42.690
Oh, but like it's maybe to our neighbor

22:42.690 --> 22:44.290
or to the babes that are coming

22:44.290 --> 22:45.630
or the people that just started.

22:45.770 --> 22:48.010
No, we are covenant partners here.

22:48.070 --> 22:48.990
It's to us.

22:50.630 --> 22:52.590
And it's hard to accept.

22:55.880 --> 22:57.340
So the people rule.

22:58.240 --> 23:00.120
Luke warm is indifferent.

23:00.540 --> 23:02.780
It is, in turn, is unbelief.

23:04.060 --> 23:06.020
So being lukewarm is you're indifferent

23:06.020 --> 23:08.840
or in turn, it's unbelief.

23:08.940 --> 23:10.500
No longer dependent on him

23:10.500 --> 23:12.100
as a provider and a source.

23:12.660 --> 23:14.980
He becomes an accessory in our life

23:14.980 --> 23:16.480
instead of being our every breath,

23:16.640 --> 23:17.740
our only sustainer.

23:19.760 --> 23:22.300
We should ask for a fresh appetite

23:22.300 --> 23:24.440
of Jesus consistently asking,

23:24.640 --> 23:25.540
seeking and knocking.

23:29.670 --> 23:31.450
Wednesday prophet Amanda Hill.

23:32.650 --> 23:35.190
This is what the Lord revealed to Amanda Hill

23:35.190 --> 23:36.090
that this decade,

23:37.810 --> 23:38.910
it was the eight.

23:39.410 --> 23:40.590
I don't remember all the names,

23:40.790 --> 23:41.490
but it was the eight.

23:41.990 --> 23:43.690
It's a decade to declare,

23:43.890 --> 23:45.230
proclaim, decree.

23:47.250 --> 23:49.950
Okay, so 2020 is the,

23:50.090 --> 23:52.950
or yeah, the 2020 is the decade.

23:53.190 --> 23:54.410
These next 10 years now,

23:54.610 --> 23:55.670
it's what, next four years.

23:55.950 --> 23:56.390
It's not wild.

23:56.750 --> 23:58.430
Six years, just blink of an eye.

23:59.670 --> 24:01.650
These next four years, it's still

24:01.650 --> 24:03.750
to decree, to proclaim,

24:04.110 --> 24:05.130
to speak out.

24:07.330 --> 24:08.730
So then this year,

24:08.850 --> 24:10.130
the Lord revealed to her certain,

24:10.450 --> 24:12.190
so the Vav, remember the six.

24:14.270 --> 24:15.370
She said this year will be

24:15.370 --> 24:17.170
a year of suffering,

24:18.070 --> 24:19.410
suffering for the Lord,

24:19.650 --> 24:20.510
for his cause.

24:21.110 --> 24:22.730
Not our own personal suffering

24:22.730 --> 24:24.670
of like, oh, I have to fast.

24:24.870 --> 24:25.470
I can't eat.

24:26.110 --> 24:27.230
Oh, I have to lose weight.

24:29.430 --> 24:31.230
Like, that's a personal suffering.

24:31.790 --> 24:32.750
Suffering for the Lord.

24:34.610 --> 24:36.890
That means if it's four in the morning

24:36.890 --> 24:38.830
and you randomly wake up,

24:38.890 --> 24:40.030
when you never wake up,

24:41.350 --> 24:43.030
it's most likely for me,

24:43.070 --> 24:44.150
in my case, it's the Lord.

24:45.110 --> 24:46.390
And the first thought is like,

24:46.770 --> 24:47.570
I should go pray.

24:47.710 --> 24:48.870
And the second thought is like,

24:49.090 --> 24:49.850
ah, I don't want to.

24:52.110 --> 24:53.230
And I'm not, I'm not,

24:53.470 --> 24:56.010
I don't always make the right

24:56.010 --> 24:58.110
decisions, but when I do, I'm so thankful

24:58.110 --> 24:59.490
that I get up out of that bed

24:59.490 --> 25:00.790
and I go pray for that hour.

25:02.310 --> 25:04.250
That's the suffering he's talking about.

25:05.210 --> 25:06.710
It's for him, not for us.

25:09.350 --> 25:11.050
So she said it will be a year

25:11.050 --> 25:12.290
of suffering and bloody,

25:12.670 --> 25:13.770
in a bloody year,

25:14.690 --> 25:16.690
in which we combat

25:18.010 --> 25:19.350
spiritual warfare with

25:19.350 --> 25:20.830
the weapon of communion.

25:22.330 --> 25:24.670
Ah, so, so grateful

25:24.670 --> 25:26.290
that the Lord spoke that through her.

25:28.670 --> 25:31.450
There's so many things as the church,

25:32.430 --> 25:34.270
I feel like even within the last,

25:34.430 --> 25:35.770
let's say, not even

25:35.770 --> 25:37.790
maybe 15, 20 years,

25:38.230 --> 25:39.530
there's things that have been so

25:39.530 --> 25:40.990
buried by the enemy,

25:41.450 --> 25:43.010
that we've been deceived of like,

25:43.150 --> 25:44.930
oh, it's not, it's not that important

25:44.930 --> 25:46.910
or that's legalistic,

25:46.990 --> 25:47.950
it's a ritual,

25:49.970 --> 25:51.990
like we don't have to have prayer

25:51.990 --> 25:54.370
services, certain things

25:54.370 --> 25:56.010
where they've been just buried

25:56.010 --> 25:58.770
and the Lord is little by little

25:58.770 --> 26:00.330
bringing them up and he say,

26:00.390 --> 26:01.770
no, this is important.

26:03.290 --> 26:04.990
And with the right mindset,

26:05.250 --> 26:07.050
communion is not a ritual,

26:07.510 --> 26:08.470
it's not legalistic.

26:10.390 --> 26:12.590
It is a command that he gave us.

26:13.690 --> 26:15.350
And it's very important.

26:15.510 --> 26:16.770
I love communion

26:17.650 --> 26:19.630
because for me, what the Lord revealed

26:19.630 --> 26:21.270
to me, when we started sharing

26:21.270 --> 26:22.830
communion with our children at home,

26:24.050 --> 26:25.830
I remember one time, it's one of those

26:25.830 --> 26:27.690
things where you start talking

26:27.690 --> 26:29.670
and then you're like, whoa, I didn't know, I knew that.

26:30.970 --> 26:32.830
And we were praying and Igor asked

26:32.830 --> 26:35.150
me to pray for, I think it was the body.

26:36.170 --> 26:37.970
And so me, Benjamin, Igor,

26:38.250 --> 26:39.430
I know I was a baby at the time

26:39.430 --> 26:40.570
and I'm holding this.

26:41.110 --> 26:42.930
And I remember when I first came to the Lord,

26:43.030 --> 26:44.410
like radically encountered him,

26:44.510 --> 26:45.870
like he actually encountered me

26:45.870 --> 26:48.070
and not just went to church because I was,

26:48.430 --> 26:49.450
that's what I was brought up.

26:49.450 --> 26:52.330
I remember I accepted him

26:52.330 --> 26:54.310
and every communion, I would just

26:54.810 --> 26:56.230
bawl, I would weep.

26:57.310 --> 26:59.250
And in the beginning, I didn't understand why,

26:59.310 --> 27:00.910
but I was weeping and then the Lord

27:00.910 --> 27:02.130
started revealing to me.

27:02.790 --> 27:04.410
And so when I'm holding this

27:04.410 --> 27:07.130
and I'm praying, I started my prayer

27:07.130 --> 27:09.410
and I said, Lord, I love

27:10.450 --> 27:11.690
communion with you.

27:11.910 --> 27:13.970
And I love that you establish this

27:13.970 --> 27:16.590
because by faith, when I put it

27:16.590 --> 27:18.590
in my mouth, it is Jesus.

27:19.910 --> 27:22.350
And that's why the 70 left him

27:22.350 --> 27:23.430
after he said that.

27:24.050 --> 27:25.850
He said, this is my body.

27:25.990 --> 27:26.970
It's not a symbol.

27:27.630 --> 27:29.090
It is my body.

27:29.870 --> 27:32.210
And us and our human, what do you mean

27:32.210 --> 27:33.910
your body? Cannibalism?

27:34.170 --> 27:35.970
What? No, he said this is my body.

27:35.990 --> 27:37.010
You take it by faith.

27:37.850 --> 27:39.790
And I remember praying and I was like,

27:40.670 --> 27:42.170
Lord, thank you for your communion.

27:42.710 --> 27:44.730
This is the closest that I can be

27:44.730 --> 27:45.810
to you right now.

27:46.930 --> 27:49.150
Because he's sitting next to his father

27:49.150 --> 27:49.630
in heaven.

27:51.430 --> 27:53.470
I said, this is the closest

27:53.930 --> 27:55.590
I can be with you right now.

27:55.750 --> 27:56.890
And it put it in my mouth.

27:57.530 --> 27:59.570
And I remember this thought process

27:59.570 --> 28:01.630
back in the olden days.

28:02.750 --> 28:04.210
The Victorian area or something

28:04.210 --> 28:05.550
like that, in that age.

28:07.090 --> 28:08.910
Where when a boy

28:08.910 --> 28:10.370
and a girl, they fall in love.

28:10.930 --> 28:12.350
The girl would snip a little bit

28:12.350 --> 28:13.730
of her hair and send it off.

28:15.390 --> 28:16.530
Now, I don't know if this is

28:16.530 --> 28:17.810
100% true. I'm sure it happened

28:17.810 --> 28:18.230
somewhat.

28:19.310 --> 28:21.370
But when the boy would receive it through the mail,

28:21.770 --> 28:23.310
it's like, oh, I got a piece of her.

28:23.370 --> 28:23.990
She's not here.

28:26.030 --> 28:26.810
Far away.

28:27.330 --> 28:29.290
But I have a piece of her. That's how I felt

28:29.290 --> 28:29.830
with the Lord.

28:31.970 --> 28:33.370
Communion is so important.

28:33.530 --> 28:35.450
We actually get to be close with him.

28:36.470 --> 28:37.310
And through communion,

28:37.450 --> 28:38.670
we can receive healing.

28:39.370 --> 28:41.630
Remember, we focus our

28:41.630 --> 28:43.590
eyes on him on that

28:43.590 --> 28:45.190
cross and him bleeding.

28:45.850 --> 28:47.350
The perfect lamb.

28:49.770 --> 28:51.110
What an honor

28:51.110 --> 28:52.970
and a privilege it is to take communion.

28:53.190 --> 28:54.230
So when she said that,

28:54.790 --> 28:56.990
I was like, yes, it's a

28:56.990 --> 28:57.870
holy act.

28:59.050 --> 29:00.950
A harvest within a harvest,

29:01.110 --> 29:01.610
she spoke.

29:03.330 --> 29:04.530
Relationships that

29:04.530 --> 29:06.530
we are to be aligned with.

29:06.730 --> 29:08.130
It's important this year, guys.

29:10.210 --> 29:10.950
Who are you

29:10.950 --> 29:12.950
choosing to be in your inner circle?

29:12.950 --> 29:13.650
Who

29:14.730 --> 29:16.930
are you choosing to spend time with?

29:18.590 --> 29:20.550
One thing Igor and I have always

29:20.550 --> 29:22.370
tried to...

29:23.610 --> 29:25.050
We've always tried to

29:25.050 --> 29:27.030
not strive, but that's the only word that's coming

29:27.030 --> 29:28.770
to me. It's to surround

29:28.770 --> 29:30.810
ourselves with people who

29:30.810 --> 29:32.810
know the Lord deeper, who have

29:32.810 --> 29:33.770
gone farther.

29:35.350 --> 29:36.770
Because that instills

29:36.770 --> 29:37.890
a hunger in us.

29:39.750 --> 29:41.130
So who are you aligning

29:41.130 --> 29:43.010
yourself with? Who are you doing

29:43.010 --> 29:43.830
life with?

29:45.630 --> 29:47.030
I want to go back to the

29:47.030 --> 29:48.290
harvest within a harvest,

29:49.170 --> 29:50.190
realigning our

29:51.310 --> 29:52.730
hearts with his heart

29:52.730 --> 29:53.990
for the lost.

29:55.670 --> 29:57.350
We get so caught up

29:57.350 --> 29:59.070
with, oh, we got to do this and that

29:59.070 --> 30:01.130
and we don't...

30:01.650 --> 30:02.690
Okay, I'm

30:02.690 --> 30:05.010
speaking we, but really I'm talking about

30:05.010 --> 30:07.230
me. I don't stop

30:07.230 --> 30:08.970
and think, man, if

30:08.970 --> 30:10.770
my cousin died right now,

30:11.750 --> 30:12.970
she would not be going

30:12.970 --> 30:13.330
to heaven.

30:15.890 --> 30:17.570
And if you have that

30:17.570 --> 30:19.410
thought actually penetrating

30:19.410 --> 30:20.210
your mind

30:20.970 --> 30:23.370
and understand who in your life

30:23.370 --> 30:25.290
if they were to die,

30:25.670 --> 30:27.270
they would be eternally

30:27.270 --> 30:28.970
in hell, away from the

30:28.970 --> 30:30.230
presence of the Lord,

30:31.730 --> 30:33.130
that's where our drive

30:33.130 --> 30:35.170
is. That's who

30:35.170 --> 30:35.830
he's after.

30:37.190 --> 30:38.670
And it was spoken a

30:38.670 --> 30:40.310
couple of weeks back. I don't remember

30:40.310 --> 30:41.830
by who...

30:42.690 --> 30:44.110
excuse me, but

30:44.770 --> 30:46.430
it's not about us anymore.

30:46.850 --> 30:48.330
We are already a new creation.

30:48.530 --> 30:50.170
He's already dealing with us. It's not

30:50.170 --> 30:51.950
about us anymore what

30:51.950 --> 30:54.290
we need to receive. It's about the lost.

30:54.970 --> 30:55.850
We go

30:55.850 --> 30:57.510
to the lost and we get them.

30:58.010 --> 31:00.070
We bring them and then it's no longer

31:00.070 --> 31:01.970
about them. It's about the lost again.

31:01.970 --> 31:02.150
And

31:04.430 --> 31:05.870
we get so caught up

31:05.870 --> 31:06.690
about me.

31:08.050 --> 31:09.350
What can I receive?

31:09.790 --> 31:11.450
What will be prophesied over me?

31:12.710 --> 31:13.950
It's about the lost

31:13.950 --> 31:16.190
and within that harvest he will provide.

31:17.990 --> 31:18.530
Judgment

31:18.530 --> 31:19.950
of sexual immorality

31:19.950 --> 31:20.730
within the house.

31:23.150 --> 31:23.930
I feel like

31:23.930 --> 31:25.630
that one's pretty self-explanatory.

31:26.410 --> 31:27.190
It's one that

31:27.900 --> 31:29.890
nobody really wants to talk about, but it's

31:29.890 --> 31:30.250
happening.

31:32.550 --> 31:33.870
And the one thing that comes

31:33.870 --> 31:35.990
to my mind is even if you think it in

31:35.990 --> 31:36.450
your brain,

31:37.450 --> 31:40.010
even if it comes into it, it sneaks

31:40.010 --> 31:40.810
in a little bit.

31:41.330 --> 31:42.450
You've already done it.

31:44.530 --> 31:44.990
This

31:45.950 --> 31:47.490
is a holy place

31:47.490 --> 31:49.910
and it has to remain a holy place

31:49.910 --> 31:51.270
and he won't come

31:53.150 --> 31:53.890
if it's

31:53.890 --> 31:55.870
not holy, if we are not holy.

31:57.710 --> 31:59.030
It's a hard one to swallow.

31:59.270 --> 32:00.110
Being in the Word.

32:01.370 --> 32:02.810
Again, so fundamental.

32:03.510 --> 32:04.950
Yet somewhat we forget

32:04.950 --> 32:07.050
and our Bible sit with dust on it.

32:08.230 --> 32:10.210
We should be in the Word way more

32:10.210 --> 32:11.630
than we really are.

32:12.210 --> 32:13.930
And I love how Amanda Hill

32:13.930 --> 32:15.530
said this. She said

32:16.010 --> 32:17.470
I mean, I'm going to take my own words.

32:17.710 --> 32:19.190
We have so many resources.

32:19.930 --> 32:21.930
Guys, there is no...

32:21.930 --> 32:24.010
We can't even say, oh, but how?

32:24.010 --> 32:26.270
Oh, we have a phone

32:26.270 --> 32:27.970
with us 24-7.

32:28.450 --> 32:29.890
We churn on the Bible. I love

32:29.890 --> 32:31.790
how she said that. Churn on the Bible

32:31.790 --> 32:33.850
and have it play. We do that

32:33.850 --> 32:34.370
with Netflix.

32:36.930 --> 32:37.890
We do about

32:37.890 --> 32:39.790
our things that have Netflix in the back.

32:40.430 --> 32:42.330
Conviction, guys. Conviction.

32:43.410 --> 32:43.930
Starting

32:43.930 --> 32:44.750
with me first.

32:47.390 --> 32:47.910
Heavenly

32:47.910 --> 32:49.990
portals over altars we have built

32:49.990 --> 32:52.070
for the Lord as we sacrifice

32:52.070 --> 32:54.190
as we are the sacrifice

32:54.190 --> 32:55.590
to receive the revelation.

32:56.190 --> 32:58.270
Because that's the whole point. It's not about the power.

33:00.650 --> 33:01.970
It's receiving

33:01.970 --> 33:04.290
the revelation of who Jesus is

33:04.290 --> 33:05.490
and him getting his glory.

33:07.510 --> 33:08.030
Stretching the

33:09.490 --> 33:10.770
tent or stretching

33:10.770 --> 33:12.550
yourself for the capacity

33:12.550 --> 33:13.090
of harvest.

33:17.270 --> 33:19.290
Thursday, again, Amanda Hill

33:19.290 --> 33:19.890
preparing

33:21.210 --> 33:22.710
for where he is going

33:22.710 --> 33:24.630
to take you. We prepare

33:24.630 --> 33:26.970
by honoring. Honoring our pastor.

33:27.830 --> 33:28.510
Honoring

33:28.510 --> 33:30.090
our covenant partners.

33:31.410 --> 33:32.090
Honoring

33:32.710 --> 33:35.210
anyone who's serving or ministering.

33:36.790 --> 33:39.010
To bring you favor which opens

33:39.010 --> 33:40.670
access to things of him.

33:42.930 --> 33:44.810
She also talked about the key

33:44.810 --> 33:47.050
of authority. The mantle

33:47.050 --> 33:48.670
of integrity and courage.

33:49.230 --> 33:50.710
I feel like that's one that we

33:50.710 --> 33:52.430
tend to forget

33:52.430 --> 33:53.270
is integrity.

33:54.870 --> 33:56.730
Being a person of your word.

33:59.750 --> 34:00.890
If you said,

34:01.050 --> 34:02.510
I think the Lord is calling me

34:02.510 --> 34:04.530
which is a huge statement, we have to

34:04.530 --> 34:05.350
watch our tongue.

34:06.750 --> 34:08.450
I think the Lord is calling me

34:08.450 --> 34:09.070
to Red Lake.

34:11.350 --> 34:12.650
And then you're done a month

34:12.650 --> 34:13.050
later.

34:14.950 --> 34:15.910
You missed it.

34:17.210 --> 34:18.430
Either it was in the beginning

34:18.430 --> 34:19.130
or the end.

34:20.770 --> 34:22.470
And unfortunately, it makes

34:22.470 --> 34:24.310
you look like a fool, and it makes

34:24.310 --> 34:25.530
the Lord look like a fool.

34:28.790 --> 34:29.930
Dangerous game to play.

34:33.010 --> 34:34.070
The Belt of Truth.

34:34.790 --> 34:36.250
On Friday, Vito talked

34:36.250 --> 34:38.310
about establishing prayer altars.

34:38.450 --> 34:40.230
Now you understand when I come up here

34:40.230 --> 34:42.390
and I can pray for like three hours

34:42.390 --> 34:44.250
in tongues and intercession.

34:44.530 --> 34:45.830
Now you know where I got it from.

34:48.540 --> 34:49.800
He talked about

34:49.800 --> 34:50.780
the altars of

34:52.160 --> 34:53.980
establishing prayer altars

34:53.980 --> 34:55.580
as living stones for

34:55.580 --> 34:57.420
intercessional prayers and generational

34:57.420 --> 34:58.760
success in the Lord.

35:00.000 --> 35:01.720
Not generational success

35:01.720 --> 35:03.240
of where my kids will be blessed

35:03.240 --> 35:04.980
and they'll have businesses and they'll

35:04.980 --> 35:06.800
have freedom and they'll have this.

35:06.980 --> 35:08.920
No, they'll know the Lord.

35:10.020 --> 35:11.260
And my ceiling

35:11.260 --> 35:12.480
will be their floor.

35:13.380 --> 35:15.020
And yeah, they might not

35:15.020 --> 35:17.160
be in the worldly eye successful,

35:17.580 --> 35:19.100
but they'll have so much

35:19.100 --> 35:20.920
deep riches when they go to heaven.

35:22.900 --> 35:25.080
I had a dream. My dad passed away.

35:25.400 --> 35:26.840
I was very close with him.

35:27.340 --> 35:28.740
And I had a dream not too long

35:28.740 --> 35:30.280
after he passed away.

35:30.640 --> 35:33.020
And it's a vivid dream that

35:33.020 --> 35:35.020
like, oh, I'm just so thankful the Lord

35:35.020 --> 35:37.080
gave it to me. I'm going to do it quickly because I'm

35:37.080 --> 35:37.640
running out of time.

35:38.740 --> 35:40.620
I remember being in this log cabin

35:40.620 --> 35:42.680
with him and my mom was there too.

35:42.680 --> 35:44.500
And I was in this log cabin

35:44.500 --> 35:46.440
and it's like one of those log cabins

35:46.440 --> 35:47.800
that looks so like

35:48.980 --> 35:49.420
ruggedy.

35:50.140 --> 35:52.640
But when you go to a ruggedy

35:52.640 --> 35:54.220
log cabin, it's dirty.

35:54.420 --> 35:56.340
It's dusty. There's stuff on the floor and

35:56.340 --> 35:58.060
you know what I mean? But this one was

35:58.500 --> 36:00.320
pristine. I remember even thinking

36:00.760 --> 36:02.640
there's no dust anywhere in this

36:02.640 --> 36:04.520
cabin. It was a beautifully

36:04.520 --> 36:06.460
built cabin, a bunch of tools,

36:06.640 --> 36:07.620
everything. It was beautiful.

36:08.280 --> 36:10.320
And my dad and me were talking and I don't remember

36:10.320 --> 36:12.600
the conversation anymore. But I remember

36:12.600 --> 36:14.220
I'm like, okay, well, I'm going to go outside.

36:15.140 --> 36:16.000
I go outside

36:16.000 --> 36:18.140
and there's crops and they're like

36:18.140 --> 36:20.300
10 to 12 feet high every

36:20.300 --> 36:22.540
crop. And I remember

36:23.140 --> 36:24.180
walking and

36:24.180 --> 36:25.740
each crop it was like

36:26.320 --> 36:28.040
like a square

36:28.040 --> 36:30.000
and there was like pathways

36:30.000 --> 36:32.120
around and it was just everywhere

36:32.120 --> 36:34.520
to the eye that you can see. And I

36:34.520 --> 36:36.360
remember going to these crops and one of them

36:36.360 --> 36:37.760
was a zucchini. Again

36:37.760 --> 36:39.840
10 to 12 feet high.

36:40.340 --> 36:41.620
I remember grabbing the zucchini.

36:41.900 --> 36:43.240
It was the size of my arm.

36:43.820 --> 36:45.580
And I remember thinking these are

36:45.580 --> 36:46.300
huge.

36:47.920 --> 36:48.440
How?

36:50.180 --> 36:51.720
And then I remember walking

36:51.720 --> 36:53.640
and my dad joins me and we're walking to

36:53.640 --> 36:55.180
see more crops and a

36:55.600 --> 36:57.720
corn just huge the size of my

36:57.720 --> 36:59.500
arm. I was like

36:59.500 --> 37:02.100
this is wild. And then it's as if

37:02.100 --> 37:03.680
I was still walking.

37:03.780 --> 37:05.460
I saw myself walking with my dad

37:05.460 --> 37:07.200
and I'm like drifting up

37:07.200 --> 37:09.320
and it's just these

37:09.320 --> 37:11.300
squares to the eye can see.

37:12.180 --> 37:13.660
And I remember waking up

37:13.660 --> 37:15.460
and the Lord he said

37:15.460 --> 37:16.800
your father's reward

37:16.800 --> 37:19.060
is in heaven. It's crops

37:19.060 --> 37:20.940
huge as the size of your arm.

37:22.380 --> 37:23.620
My first thought was

37:23.620 --> 37:25.220
thank you Lord because I know everything

37:25.220 --> 37:27.200
that my dad went through and more things that I

37:27.200 --> 37:29.100
never will know until I get to heaven and

37:29.100 --> 37:30.980
he'll share his testimony of Jesus

37:30.980 --> 37:31.640
about that.

37:32.720 --> 37:34.320
But that's what I want.

37:35.560 --> 37:37.380
I want these huge

37:37.380 --> 37:38.500
crops in heaven

37:38.500 --> 37:40.360
not for my glory but

37:40.360 --> 37:41.080
for his.

37:45.280 --> 37:47.240
So that's the generational

37:47.240 --> 37:48.860
success I'm talking about.

37:51.020 --> 37:52.720
Oh my goodness I was thinking

37:52.720 --> 37:53.900
I didn't have enough material.

37:55.180 --> 37:56.380
Thank you Jesus.

37:56.560 --> 37:58.000
He came through for sure.

38:01.320 --> 38:02.800
So he's talking about

38:02.800 --> 38:04.400
to be trained priests that are

38:04.400 --> 38:06.500
heart set apart practicing

38:06.500 --> 38:07.940
a life of discipline.

38:09.360 --> 38:10.580
Becoming trained

38:10.580 --> 38:12.320
priests that are

38:12.320 --> 38:13.740
hard to set apart

38:14.480 --> 38:16.180
practicing the life of

38:16.670 --> 38:18.420
discipline. Prayer

38:18.420 --> 38:20.640
fasting and giving. Suffering

38:20.640 --> 38:22.540
is suffering for

38:22.540 --> 38:24.220
Christ. Not suffering for ourselves

38:25.060 --> 38:26.520
like I have to wait another

38:26.520 --> 38:28.340
hour of service in order to eat.

38:28.520 --> 38:29.660
That's suffering for yourself.

38:29.660 --> 38:31.500
Suffering for Christ

38:31.500 --> 38:32.840
is currency

38:33.480 --> 38:35.440
that blew my mind. It was amazing.

38:36.400 --> 38:37.380
Like Moses

38:37.380 --> 38:39.200
who struck the rock who is Jesus

38:39.200 --> 38:41.280
and water came out. Power and authority.

38:44.080 --> 38:45.500
That's the currency he's

38:45.500 --> 38:46.080
talking about.

38:47.700 --> 38:49.640
Vito also talked about David's

38:49.640 --> 38:51.520
tabernacle. Continuous prayer and worship.

38:51.740 --> 38:52.520
This is my heart.

38:53.720 --> 38:55.640
This is my heart. Corporate

38:55.640 --> 38:57.180
altar gathering. He talks about

38:57.180 --> 38:59.060
personal altars at home

38:59.060 --> 39:01.380
that you will establish through consistent prayer

39:01.380 --> 39:03.880
every single day at 7 p.m.

39:04.000 --> 39:05.270
I remember this one evangelist.

39:06.540 --> 39:07.480
I mean he's just

39:07.480 --> 39:09.440
world renowned now. He's

39:09.440 --> 39:11.400
a Slavic man. But I remember

39:11.400 --> 39:13.040
when we sat together and broke

39:13.040 --> 39:14.660
bread and he shared a testimony.

39:15.140 --> 39:17.200
He's like, for years, he's like

39:17.200 --> 39:19.120
my wife would be so upset with me.

39:19.220 --> 39:20.220
We'd be hanging out with people

39:20.220 --> 39:22.860
7 o'clock or not 7 o'clock, but like

39:22.860 --> 39:24.640
6.30, 6 o'clock came.

39:24.640 --> 39:26.480
We got to wrap up the kids. Go home.

39:26.520 --> 39:27.580
I got to spend time with the Lord.

39:28.240 --> 39:31.040
Talk about an inconvenient time. 7 p.m.

39:31.080 --> 39:32.620
You have to drop everything you're

39:32.620 --> 39:34.400
doing. That means your kids' games.

39:35.740 --> 39:36.820
That means family

39:36.820 --> 39:38.400
gatherings. That means turning off

39:38.400 --> 39:40.260
that TV. That means family

39:40.260 --> 39:42.280
dinners. You drop it all and you go

39:42.280 --> 39:43.140
spend time with him.

39:44.340 --> 39:46.240
Look at him now. He has

39:46.240 --> 39:48.120
a power and authority.

39:50.520 --> 39:51.220
Oh, man.

39:51.220 --> 39:51.360
Oh, man.

39:55.440 --> 39:57.160
So put in the

39:57.160 --> 39:59.180
effort to have God's altar

39:59.180 --> 40:01.140
established so that no enemy can

40:01.140 --> 40:03.060
be victorious in our region, in our state.

40:04.360 --> 40:05.120
That's

40:05.120 --> 40:07.000
David's Tabernacle. 24

40:07.000 --> 40:08.920
hour, 24

40:08.920 --> 40:10.680
hour prayer

40:10.680 --> 40:11.720
and worship.

40:12.940 --> 40:14.340
For example, Minnesota

40:14.340 --> 40:16.080
and this is interesting.

40:16.700 --> 40:17.520
Minnesota is

40:18.500 --> 40:19.720
in my eyes known

40:19.720 --> 40:21.300
as a state of firsts.

40:21.740 --> 40:23.500
And the reason for that is I

40:23.500 --> 40:25.640
remember I was doing interpersonal communications

40:25.640 --> 40:27.540
in college, a class, and

40:27.540 --> 40:29.100
this very liberal

40:29.100 --> 40:31.520
professor, at the end we had

40:31.520 --> 40:33.520
a paper to do. And he said

40:33.520 --> 40:35.300
for this paper what you have to do is you

40:35.300 --> 40:37.080
have to write an event that happened

40:37.080 --> 40:39.220
in Minnesota that affected our nation

40:39.220 --> 40:40.420
and that affected our world.

40:40.980 --> 40:42.900
And I remember thinking Minnesota

40:43.940 --> 40:45.240
really, and he's like

40:45.240 --> 40:46.860
and as if he

40:46.860 --> 40:49.120
read my mind, he's like you would be

40:49.120 --> 40:51.640
surprised how many firsts Minnesota

40:51.640 --> 40:52.240
has.

40:54.100 --> 40:55.280
Quiet little northern

40:55.280 --> 40:57.080
state has so many

40:57.080 --> 40:58.920
firsts. Two examples. Number one,

40:59.000 --> 41:00.280
member 35 W. Pritch

41:02.200 --> 41:03.920
affected Minnesota, affected

41:03.920 --> 41:05.240
our nation, affected the world.

41:05.640 --> 41:06.180
George Floyd.

41:07.160 --> 41:09.160
Now I'm not saying these are all good stuff.

41:10.400 --> 41:11.280
But can you

41:11.280 --> 41:13.420
imagine if we created an altar,

41:13.420 --> 41:15.380
a corporate altar gathering

41:15.380 --> 41:17.620
of 24 hours,

41:17.860 --> 41:19.360
seven days a week prayer

41:19.360 --> 41:21.420
and worship, what do you think

41:21.420 --> 41:23.420
Minnesota would be known for? The

41:23.420 --> 41:25.280
other one. There's a guy named Carl

41:25.280 --> 41:26.520
N. Plateau.

41:27.380 --> 41:28.900
He established, he took

41:29.420 --> 41:31.360
he started this in Minnesota.

41:31.860 --> 41:33.700
He took, probably

41:33.700 --> 41:35.080
might not be good about it, but

41:35.080 --> 41:37.320
he took the business realm of banking

41:37.320 --> 41:38.960
brought it to the hospitals

41:38.960 --> 41:41.260
and he took that small community

41:41.260 --> 41:43.220
hospital and he made it into a

41:43.220 --> 41:44.120
healthcare system.

41:45.100 --> 41:46.780
That not only affected Minnesota

41:46.780 --> 41:48.960
because it started here, Fairview

41:48.960 --> 41:50.880
was the first hospital that agreed to it.

41:53.540 --> 41:54.440
Brad Breedy.

41:55.300 --> 41:57.120
Fulfill the sacred vision God

41:57.120 --> 41:58.660
is given with hard work, unity,

41:58.980 --> 42:00.900
submission and obedience. Working

42:00.900 --> 42:03.280
for the vision, not for what you want.

42:04.320 --> 42:05.260
Well, I feel

42:05.920 --> 42:07.280
I feel like I don't want to

42:07.280 --> 42:09.440
be any ministry

42:09.440 --> 42:11.380
during service because I want to be in the service

42:11.380 --> 42:13.640
and receive. You're not working

42:13.640 --> 42:15.080
for the vision, you're working for yourself.

42:16.340 --> 42:17.620
Being in the background

42:17.620 --> 42:19.320
doing the mundane, serving when

42:19.320 --> 42:21.480
everyone else is being saturated in the

42:21.480 --> 42:23.560
presence that is suffering

42:23.560 --> 42:25.560
for the Lord. Working together, not

42:25.560 --> 42:27.340
against for his plan, it's not

42:27.340 --> 42:28.020
about us.

42:29.020 --> 42:31.440
What do we do now? Okay, this

42:31.440 --> 42:33.280
is where my assignment comes in

42:33.280 --> 42:35.300
but really I think the Lord is saying, okay

42:36.080 --> 42:37.440
who's going to take this on?

42:37.440 --> 42:39.340
Who can I find trustworthy

42:39.340 --> 42:41.520
at December 2026?

42:43.540 --> 42:44.600
A challenge.

42:45.540 --> 42:47.440
There's eight services.

42:47.980 --> 42:49.580
We had eight services, eight

42:49.580 --> 42:50.360
different topics.

42:51.120 --> 42:53.560
I'm very practical. This is how my brain

42:53.560 --> 42:55.460
works. Take one sermon

42:56.740 --> 42:57.600
and

42:57.600 --> 42:59.600
re-listen to it every week

42:59.600 --> 43:01.380
and start implementing

43:01.380 --> 43:03.200
what Pastor Brad Breedy

43:03.200 --> 43:04.920
preached about that first Sunday

43:04.920 --> 43:06.840
and implement it in the month of

43:06.840 --> 43:08.540
February. Next,

43:08.960 --> 43:11.460
go grab what our prophet

43:11.460 --> 43:12.880
Brian Hill spoke about.

43:13.220 --> 43:14.400
Listen to it weekly.

43:15.380 --> 43:16.680
Take in all that information

43:16.680 --> 43:18.880
implement what he asked you to do

43:18.880 --> 43:20.340
what we're supposed to do. Stop

43:20.340 --> 43:20.940
being lazy.

43:23.420 --> 43:24.640
That's one of the practical

43:24.640 --> 43:26.740
things. It's when the rubber meets

43:26.740 --> 43:28.580
the road. It's exciting knowing that

43:28.580 --> 43:30.240
you're going to take off on a fast car.

43:32.000 --> 43:32.800
But when

43:32.800 --> 43:34.480
you're actually, when the rubber actually

43:34.480 --> 43:36.460
meets the road, it's pressure.

43:36.660 --> 43:38.580
It's uncomfortable. It's hot. It's

43:38.580 --> 43:38.920
sticky.

43:41.280 --> 43:42.320
It's painful.

43:44.660 --> 43:45.700
You persevere.

43:46.880 --> 43:48.660
It's a make a choice in your heart.

43:49.000 --> 43:50.060
That's what I believe prophet

43:50.060 --> 43:52.700
Brian Holly said.

43:52.840 --> 43:53.940
Make a choice in your heart.

43:54.420 --> 43:55.680
Re-watch the sermons.

43:56.900 --> 43:58.640
Pray for the Holy Spirit

43:58.640 --> 43:59.700
to reveal to you.

44:00.320 --> 44:01.300
Set a time.

44:01.520 --> 44:02.180
Day routine.

44:03.080 --> 44:04.940
So much more and I can't. I'm done.

44:06.480 --> 44:07.300
Thank you Lord.

44:07.500 --> 44:08.720
I was so nervous for today.

44:09.480 --> 44:11.260
I thought ten minutes and I'd be done.

44:11.500 --> 44:12.260
Praise Jesus.

44:13.640 --> 44:15.240
But guys, this is serious.

44:16.360 --> 44:17.740
I think this is more serious than

44:17.740 --> 44:19.020
we actually understand right now.

44:19.100 --> 44:21.460
Right now we're like, yeah, this is serious. This is heavy.

44:22.140 --> 44:23.660
But I think it's even more than

44:23.660 --> 44:25.020
that. We want to go through.

44:25.380 --> 44:27.540
We pass this threshold. We can't

44:27.540 --> 44:27.880
go back.

44:29.280 --> 44:31.280
Okay. We have to go forward.

44:32.340 --> 44:32.360
Amen.

44:33.140 --> 44:35.300
This is serious. We have to take

44:35.300 --> 44:37.160
what was being spoken to us and

44:37.160 --> 44:39.480
implement it. And I can guarantee

44:39.480 --> 44:41.500
you, 2027,

44:41.960 --> 44:42.940
we will see

44:43.420 --> 44:45.380
the evidences of who took that

44:45.380 --> 44:47.480
seriously. Who did

44:47.480 --> 44:48.000
their homework.

44:49.220 --> 44:51.320
Hallelujah. Thank you Jesus for your

44:51.320 --> 44:52.520
goodness. Thank you Lord.

44:53.200 --> 44:53.560
That you

44:54.960 --> 44:55.720
that you're

44:55.720 --> 44:56.460
so faithful.

44:57.760 --> 44:59.560
That you're so faithful.

45:00.800 --> 45:01.940
That even in

45:01.940 --> 45:03.440
our weakness, that's when you were

45:03.440 --> 45:04.780
you were made strong.

45:07.340 --> 45:08.140
Thank you

45:08.140 --> 45:09.620
that you take us

45:09.620 --> 45:12.040
deeper and you reveal to us

45:12.040 --> 45:13.520
and that you love us and you

45:13.520 --> 45:15.220
show us mercy and grace

45:15.220 --> 45:16.640
when we don't deserve it.

45:18.920 --> 45:19.680
May you

45:19.680 --> 45:20.980
take this seed and

45:20.980 --> 45:22.760
bring it into our hearts

45:22.760 --> 45:24.640
and give us a revelation about it.

45:24.760 --> 45:26.360
Let us meditate on it day and night

45:26.360 --> 45:28.680
and receive our own personal revelation

45:28.680 --> 45:31.100
of how deep, how serious

45:31.100 --> 45:31.760
this is.

45:33.900 --> 45:34.940
Holy Spirit, may you

45:34.940 --> 45:37.060
find this sacrifice, this

45:37.060 --> 45:38.840
repentance now. May you

45:38.840 --> 45:40.620
find it pleasing and may it draw

45:40.620 --> 45:43.140
your presence here. May it draw

45:43.140 --> 45:44.800
the eyes of the Father to look

45:44.800 --> 45:46.620
at our house today this morning

45:46.620 --> 45:47.220
right now.

45:49.460 --> 45:51.280
And won't you come, Holy Spirit,

45:51.360 --> 45:52.660
we welcome you. Won't you come

45:52.660 --> 45:53.880
and manifest yourself

45:54.640 --> 45:55.700
because you find

45:55.700 --> 45:56.340
rest?

45:58.360 --> 45:59.480
You don't manifest

45:59.480 --> 46:00.860
yourself because

46:01.460 --> 46:03.100
there's a bunch of things happening

46:03.100 --> 46:04.760
and it makes you happen. No, you find

46:04.760 --> 46:06.860
rest and that's where you abide

46:06.860 --> 46:08.360
and that's where you are comfortable

46:08.360 --> 46:10.120
and that's when you start revealing yourself.

46:11.060 --> 46:13.080
Find rest in us, Lord. Hallelujah.

46:13.380 --> 46:14.820
Be glorified through the worship.

46:14.820 --> 46:15.940
Amen.
