Detox Prayers That Break the Grip of Stress · Mornings with the Holy Spirit

  The enemy loves to stress us out. He
• 0:04
  really does. And stress is what happens
• 0:07
  when you forget that God has already
• 0:10
  made a plan. He's got provision. He's
• 0:13
  given you peace.
• 0:15
  You know, God's not looking at our
• 0:16
  situations. He's not stressed. He's not
• 0:20
  wondering, "Oh my gosh, what are we
• 0:21
  going to do now?" So before that stress
• 0:23
  ever hits, he's already had the answer.
• 0:26
  He's already got the solution. So, why
• 0:29
  do we carry what he's already solved?
• 0:32
  Why do we allow the enemy, our
• 0:34
  circumstances, ourselves? Why do we
• 0:36
  stress ourselves out? Today, we're
• 0:39
  laying it down. And I want to share with
• 0:41
  you something the Holy Spirit said to me
• 0:43
  many years ago. But before I do, I want
• 0:46
  to remind you of the soul detox
• 0:49
  challenge. Some of you wonder why you're
• 0:52
  stuck, why you just don't progress. the
• 0:54
  people around you are moving forward and
• 0:57
  you're still stuck.
• 0:59
  And if you don't know why, I'm going to
• 1:02
  give you a revelation.
• 1:04
  If something in your soul, listen, your
• 1:06
  spirit is perfect, but your mind needs
• 1:09
  to be renewed. There's things, there's
• 1:10
  lies in our minds that we need to
• 1:13
  confront so that the truth can set us
• 1:15
  free. It's the truth that we know that
• 1:17
  sets us free. So, if we're believing a
• 1:19
  lie, we're not believing the truth. And
• 1:22
  there's something in all of us. There's
• 1:23
  a little something we're not believing
• 1:25
  rightly or we would be seeing the
• 1:27
  fullness, the manifestation of
• 1:30
  everything God promised. He's promised
• 1:32
  us. He's already done it. He did it on
• 1:34
  the cross. He did everything. He gave us
• 1:36
  peace, love, joy, healing, prosperity,
• 1:39
  deliverance. And so, if we're not
• 1:40
  walking in the fullness of that, then
• 1:43
  we're not believing the whole truth.
• 1:44
  We're believing a lie. And that's a
• 1:46
  toxicity. I want to join the soul detox
• 1:49
  challenge. This is going to give you a
• 1:52
  more than a jump start. It's going to
• 1:53
  give you the tools that you need to get
• 1:55
  unstuck. Go to souldetoxchallenge.com
• 2:00
  and join today.
• 2:02
  Now, I want to share with you what the
• 2:04
  Lord said to me. I used to be so
• 2:05
  stressed out. I used to get so stressed
• 2:07
  out. I mean, really had a problem with
• 2:09
  stress. And part of that was the enemy
• 2:13
  and part of it was me stressing myself
• 2:15
  out. Okay. So, put on your spiritual
• 2:17
  ears. Here's what I heard the Lord say.
• 2:21
  Just trust me with it. Am I not worthy
• 2:24
  of your trust? Have I not earned it? Do
• 2:28
  I not deserve it? Just trust me with it.
• 2:32
  Whenever you encounter anything you
• 2:34
  can't handle, just trust me with it. I
• 2:38
  see the end from the beginning, says the
• 2:41
  Lord. I know the way through and the way
• 2:45
  out. I know the way over and the way
• 2:48
  under. I have the solution to all your
• 2:52
  problems, says the Lord. Just trust me
• 2:55
  with it. Give it to me now and rejoice
• 2:59
  in my love, says the spirit of the
• 3:03
  living God. Look how many times in there
• 3:05
  he told me, "Just trust me with it." You
• 3:07
  know why he kept telling me, "Just trust
• 3:10
  me with it?" Because you got it. I
• 3:13
  wasn't trusting him with it. The Bible
• 3:15
  says, "Don't cast away. Cast not away
• 3:17
  your confidence because with it comes a
• 3:19
  great recompense of reward." If we just
• 3:22
  trust him, listen, listen, listen. We
• 3:25
  trust him with our salvation. But
• 3:27
  sometimes we don't trust him with other
• 3:29
  things that are relatively minor in the
• 3:31
  grand scheme of eternity. A 100 years
• 3:34
  from now, we're not going to be worrying
• 3:36
  about what bothered us today. Am I
• 3:39
  right? I know I'm right. Amen. We cast
• 3:42
  our cares on the Lord. He has the
• 3:44
  solution. Stress is not our portion. So
• 3:48
  today, we're going to break that stress,
• 3:50
  that cycle of stress. You're going to
• 3:52
  get an aha moment as I pray for you. So
• 3:55
  track with me because we're going to
• 3:57
  pray into all this and more in today's
• 3:59

  But guys, remember all the the courses,
• 5:32
  School of the Seers, School of
• 5:34
  Deliverance, all the classes and courses
• 5:36
  over there at schoolofthespirit.tv. TV.
• 5:38
  You have a high calling, but you also
• 5:40
  have challenges that you need to
• 5:42
  overcome. And the problem is a a
• 5:45
  knowledge problem. You don't know how to
• 5:47
  fix the problems. And I've been through
• 5:49
  a lot. I've walked through a lot over 25
• 5:51
  years. I've been in poverty. I've been
• 5:53
  uh uh massively oppressed, demonized.
• 5:56
  I've been uh very sick in my body,
• 5:59
  needed a miracle. Listen, I've been
• 6:02
  through a lot, and I want to share my
• 6:04
  wisdom with you. So, go to
• 6:05
  schoolofthespirit.tv TV and see what's
• 6:07
  going to suit you. Amen. Give me a year
• 6:08
  of your life and apply the word I'm
• 6:10
  teaching and watch the revelation. Now,
• 6:13
  I'm going to begin to pray for you here
• 6:14
  in just a couple of minutes. I want to
• 6:16
  make sure I greet you properly. Good
• 6:18
  morning to all of our prayer hub
• 6:19
  leaders. God bless you. Come on in.
• 6:22
  Share this with somebody this morning.
• 6:23
  Good morning to all of you. Share this
• 6:25
  with somebody because I want to pray.
• 6:26
  That's why I'm here. That's my mission.
• 6:29
  Good morning to the Awakening House
• 6:30
  church leaders, the Awakening House of
• 6:32
  Prayer Leaders. Good morning to the
• 6:33
  Ignite Accelerator fam. Come on in. Come
• 6:36
  on in. Come on in. Come on in. We are
• 6:39
  planting prayer hubs now even in closed
• 6:42
  nations. And I can't tell you where they
• 6:44
  are, but this is prime time, guys. God
• 6:46
  is really doing something spectacular in
• 6:49
  the earth. You see that this uh uh the
• 6:51
  new supreme leader of Iran believes he
• 6:54
  was born to end the world. I just did a
• 6:56
  video on that. So, I mean, it's really
• 6:58
  serious times that we're in. Uh but God
• 7:01
  is still on the throne. Amen. I said
• 7:03
  he's still on the throne. Amen. So, I
• 7:06
  want to get us all on the same page
• 7:10
  before I pray. I want to get your faith
• 7:13
  engaged and activated. So, track with me
• 7:16
  here. You know, this is my experience,
• 7:18
  probably yours, too. Stress has a tight
• 7:21
  grip and a heavy hand. You know, and if
• 7:24
  you've been living under the weight of
• 7:27
  it long enough, you know what that grip
• 7:29
  feels like. It it it it sometimes it
• 7:32
  feels like it sits on your chest in the
• 7:33
  morning before you ever open your eyes.
• 7:37
  It follows you into your prayer time. It
• 7:39
  can hijack your sleep. It turns these
• 7:41
  ordinary problems, listen, into
• 7:44
  catastrophic scenarios, that
• 7:47
  catastrophic thinking, thinking the
• 7:49
  absolute possible worst. And it
• 7:51
  convinces your whole nervous system that
• 7:53
  the worst really is just a moment away.
• 7:56
  And so that's not just anxiety. That
• 7:58
  could be a spirit operating with an
• 8:01
  assignment. It's stress. And the enemy
• 8:04
  doesn't always come at you with a with a
• 8:07
  full-blown frontal attack. Often times,
• 8:10
  he's way more strategic than that. He he
• 8:13
  he he
• 8:15
  piles, right? Piles on. He he layers the
• 8:19
  distractions. He adds one pressure on
• 8:21
  top of another until the accumulation
• 8:25
  becomes so heavy that you're not
• 8:28
  thinking clearly anymore. You're not
• 8:30
  hearing from God clearly anymore. And
• 8:33
  you know, you're not moving then in
• 8:34
  faith because all your energy is being
• 8:36
  consumed just trying to survive. You're
• 8:38
  not in thrive mode. You're in survive
• 8:40
  mode. And God didn't call us to live in
• 8:43
  survive mode. We're supposed to be
• 8:45
  thrivings. Jesus said, "The enemy comes
• 8:47
  but for to steal, to kill, and to
• 8:50
  destroy. But I came that you might have
• 8:52
  life, have, and enjoy life in abundance
• 8:55
  to the full until it overflows." And so
• 8:57
  this chronic stress is one of the most
• 9:00
  effective tools that the enemy uses. He
• 9:03
  speaks, "Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa." All the
• 9:05
  stress, it it doesn't look like
• 9:07
  spiritual warfare. It just looks like
• 9:09
  your life. And that's the deception. So,
• 9:11
  I want you to go to my website at
• 9:13
  jenniferlair.org. We're starting once a
• 9:15
  week to start posting prayer points also
• 9:17
  for you and uh a lot of you have asked
• 9:20
  for that and we really want to provide
• 9:23
  some of those prayer points so you can
• 9:24
  pray them yourselves. So we're working
• 9:26
  on that. We're always working on
• 9:27
  something to bless you. But go to my
• 9:29
  website at jenniferlair.org
• 9:31
  and read the blog post. It's called
• 9:34
  Detox Prayers That Break the Grip of
• 9:36
  Stress. And with that, I want you to
• 9:39
  begin to pray in the spirit. I want you
• 9:41
  to begin to praise the Lord. Let's
• 9:43
  begin.
• 9:45
  Praise you, Jesus. We thank you, Lord,
• 9:47
  because you are great. You are awesome.
• 9:51
  You are mighty. There's just no God like
• 9:53
  you, Jesus. You are spectacular. You're
• 9:56
  holy. You're mighty. You are the master
• 10:00
  problem solver. You see all things. You
• 10:03
  know all things. The end from the
• 10:05
  beginning, our end from our beginning.
• 10:08
  You've got a future and a hope for us.
• 10:10
  And we praise your holy name, God. We
• 10:12
  ask you to forgive us, for stressing
• 10:15
  ourselves out, for not trusting you with
• 10:17
  it, for not letting it go, for not
• 10:20
  casting our cares. Lord, you didn't call
• 10:23
  us to live torqued up. You called us to
• 10:25
  live victorious. So help us, Father, in
• 10:28
  the name of Jesus. In the name of Jesus,
• 10:31
  we thank you, Father, that you forgive
• 10:33
  us and cleanse us from this sin of
• 10:35
  distrust uh that's proven out by our
• 10:38
  stressful thoughts and fears and all
• 10:40
  this stuff. God, help us. We renounce,
• 10:43
  as a matter of fact, all agreement that
• 10:46
  we've made with stress, whether we know
• 10:48
  it or whether it's just even
• 10:50
  subconscious, Lord, we renounce the lie
• 10:52
  that stress is just that's we're just
• 10:54
  wired that way and there's nothing we
• 10:56
  can do about it. We're just bent. No,
• 10:58
  we're not bent that way. We're not wired
• 11:00
  that way. We are the righteousness of
• 11:02
  God in Christ Jesus. Our spirits have
• 11:05
  been perfected, truly holy, and we are
• 11:07
  not wired for stress. We are wired for
• 11:10
  peace. Hallelujah. And so we renounce
• 11:12
  the belief that carrying heavy burdens
• 11:15
  is the responsible and faithful thing to
• 11:18
  do. We're not supposed to carry the
• 11:19
  burdens. Your yoke is easy. Your burden
• 11:22
  is light. And so we shun every other
• 11:25
  burden. If it didn't come from you, we
• 11:27
  reject it. And we renounce every
• 11:30
  internal vow that we made to worry as a
• 11:34
  way of preparing for the worst. We just
• 11:35
  want to be prepared. We just want to be.
• 11:37
  So we're paranoid. We're stressed. We're
• 11:40
  anxious. know we break that in Jesus'
• 11:42
  name. We renounce that the any agreement
• 11:46
  that that that that that chronic stress
• 11:49
  is just the cost of living a full and
• 11:52
  busy life. No, Jesus had a full and busy
• 11:55
  life and he wasn't stressed. I thank
• 11:57
  you, Father. We renounce the lie that
• 11:59
  God is not big enough or present enough
• 12:02
  or attentive enough to handle what we're
• 12:05
  carrying. He is with us. He is for us. I
• 12:08
  thank you, Lord. and and and we renounce
• 12:10
  the habit of picking the weight back up
• 12:15
  after we cast it on God in the name of
• 12:18
  Jesus. We renounce the lie that
• 12:21
  anticipating the worst protects us from
• 12:24
  experiencing it. That's a lie that keeps
• 12:26
  us miserable and in bondage and we break
• 12:28
  it. And we renounce that spirit of dread
• 12:31
  that convinced our nervous systems that
• 12:33
  the worst is just one moment away that
• 12:36
  the other shoe is going to drop. We
• 12:39
  break it in the name of Jesus. In the
• 12:42
  name of Jesus. In the name of Jesus. So
• 12:44
  I pull down every stronghold of stress
• 12:48
  that has uh become a just it's an just
• 12:52
  just a a fortress in our minds and even
• 12:55
  in our nervous system. As a man thinks
• 12:57
  in his heart, so is he. So when we think
• 13:00
  stressed thoughts, we become stressed
• 13:01
  balls. We're just stressed out. Our
• 13:03
  nervous system is just on fire. And I
• 13:05
  break it. We break the power of of of
• 13:08
  chronic stress that's been operating as
• 13:11
  as a as a demonic assignment against our
• 13:13
  faith and against our clarity. and and
• 13:16
  and I command that that that stress to
• 13:19
  loose its grip on our chests, on our
• 13:22
  minds, on our sleep, on our body right
• 13:26
  now in the name of Jesus. And I break
• 13:29
  every layer, every layer as I see
• 13:33
  there's layers of this. I just had a
• 13:35
  picture. I saw a vision of just layers
• 13:37
  and layers and layers and layers and
• 13:39
  layers. And if we would just strip one
• 13:41
  back after another, we would find that
• 13:43
  we're stressed out about things that
• 13:44
  happened a year ago that have already
• 13:46
  been resolved, but we have not let go of
• 13:49
  the stress. And so I break every layer
• 13:52
  of accumulated pressure that the enemy
• 13:56
  has piled on us to overwhelm us, to get
• 14:00
  us out of faith. We're fighting the good
• 14:02
  fight of faith. I thank you, Lord. We we
• 14:04
  declare that stress is not just our
• 14:07
  life. That's not our portion. That's not
• 14:09
  our inheritance. Oh, I thank you, Lord.
• 14:12
  It's a warfare strategy and we are
• 14:14
  dismantling it now. We serve the prince
• 14:17
  of peace. The spirit of peace dwells on
• 14:19
  the inside of us. So, we bind the strong
• 14:22
  man of stress, huh, that has assigned
• 14:25
  itself to our thought life and we cast
• 14:29
  it out in the name of Jesus. and we pull
• 14:32
  down every mental framework built on the
• 14:36
  assumption that catastrophe is just
• 14:39
  always imminent. I thank you, Lord. It's
• 14:42
  not imminent. Your blessings are
• 14:44
  imminent. I thank you that you're a very
• 14:46
  present help in time of need. We break
• 14:48
  the power of every stressor the enemy
• 14:52
  has weaponized beyond its natural weight
• 14:55
  in order to crush our faith. I thank
• 14:57
  you, Lord. This is the victory that
• 14:58
  overcomes the world, even our faith. So
• 15:02
  I command every demonic reinforcement of
• 15:05
  stress to be dismantled, to be
• 15:07
  destroyed, to be removed from our lives
• 15:10
  now in the name of Jesus. And I break
• 15:13
  stress off our mornings, off our prayer
• 15:16
  time, off our sleep, off our daily
• 15:19
  routines in Jesus name. Amen. I declare
• 15:22
  furthermore, bless the Lord, that no
• 15:25
  weapon of stress formed against our mind
• 15:28
  or our body or our faith shall prosper.
• 15:32
  No weapon, and I break the power of all
• 15:34
  that just this pressure upon pressure
• 15:36
  upon all the pressure that that that
• 15:38
  pressure, it's crushing pressure, that
• 15:40
  stress just built layer by layer until
• 15:43
  we just couldn't even hear God clearly
• 15:46
  anymore. We're just operating on
• 15:47
  adrenaline. God, I break it. and I pull
• 15:50
  down the stronghold of a of a stress
• 15:53
  saturated mind and I declare the peace
• 15:56
  of God moves in its place in Jesus name.
• 16:00
  I break every assignment of the enemy
• 16:02
  designed to keep us so distracted by
• 16:06
  surviving that we can't thrive. We don't
• 16:09
  advance. We stay stuck. I break it. I
• 16:12
  declare that this stronghold is coming
• 16:14
  down completely root and branch.
• 16:17
  Hallelujah. in the name of Jesus. In the
• 16:20
  name of Jesus. So, Father, we do we cast
• 16:23
  every care that's been producing stress
• 16:26
  in our soul onto you now. We we we do it
• 16:29
  with force. We do it with finality.
• 16:31
  We're not picking it back up. We declare
• 16:33
  that that that one Peter 5:7 cast cares
• 16:36
  on him because he cares for you. That's
• 16:38
  not a suggestion. That's a warfare
• 16:41
  command. And we will obey it now in the
• 16:44
  name of Jesus. Lord, we cast all
• 16:47
  financial pressures on you. And we
• 16:49
  declare that you care for us and we can
• 16:52
  trust you with it. We cast all
• 16:54
  relational stress on you. Every every
• 16:57
  strained connection, every unresolved
• 17:00
  conflict, and we're going to trust you
• 17:02
  with it. We cast the stress of any unmet
• 17:06
  expectations on you. A and we trust your
• 17:09
  timing. We trust your timing. We're
• 17:11
  going to trust you with it. We cast
• 17:13
  every work pressure, all the deadlines,
• 17:16
  every assignment that's been crushing
• 17:18
  us, we cast that on you and we trust you
• 17:21
  with it. We cast the stress of our
• 17:23
  health concerns, any any symptoms in
• 17:26
  your body, any medical fears, we cast it
• 17:29
  onto the great physician and we trust
• 17:31
  you with it. We cast every ministry
• 17:34
  burden, every intercessory load, every
• 17:37
  prophetic weight that becomes that
• 17:39
  became like a stress. We cast that on
• 17:41
  you, God. and we trust you with it. We
• 17:44
  cast the stress of our children, our
• 17:46
  family, people we love that maybe
• 17:49
  they're they're sick or hurting or
• 17:50
  they've gone astray. We we cast that
• 17:52
  care on you, Lord. You love them more
• 17:55
  than we do. So, we trust you with it. We
• 17:58
  cast the stress of uncertainty or uh
• 18:01
  unanswered questions and uh unknown
• 18:03
  outcomes onto our all- knowing God. We
• 18:06
  trust you with it. We cast every future
• 18:09
  fear that stress has been feeding off uh
• 18:13
  onto we we we cast it on to God. You've
• 18:16
  already you've got our future in your
• 18:18
  hand. So we trust you with it and we
• 18:20
  declare that every care we cast on God.
• 18:26
  It stays on God. We're not picking it
• 18:27
  back up this time in the name of Jesus.
• 18:30
  We cast that stress of of of of just
• 18:33
  everyday life. We just cast it on you.
• 18:35
  And we declare that we qualify because 1
• 18:38
  Peter 5:7 says that you care for us. So
• 18:42
  we cast it all. Every weight, every
• 18:45
  worry, every what if. We thank you
• 18:47
  though we leave it. We leave it at your
• 18:49
  feet. So I take authority over the
• 18:52
  roaring lion seeking to devour our
• 18:54
  peace, our faith, our clarity in the
• 18:58
  name of Jesus. And I bind that spirit
• 19:02
  that roams around looking for a
• 19:04
  stressed, distracted a and fragmented
• 19:07
  believer to consume. It's not going to
• 19:09
  be us. It's not going to be us. I
• 19:11
  declare that we are sober and vigilant.
• 19:14
  And the enemy finds no unguarded entry
• 19:17
  point in our lives. We resist the devil
• 19:21
  in the area of stress. And we declare
• 19:23
  that he's got to flee from us now seven
• 19:26
  ways. In fact, in the name of Jesus, I
• 19:29
  break that devouring assignment that
• 19:31
  targeted our minds through the
• 19:33
  accumulation of pressure and worry. And
• 19:36
  I declare that a stressed believer,
• 19:40
  we are not stressed believers. We will
• 19:42
  not be stressed believers. We we we we
• 19:44
  we walk in peace. We walk in peace. We
• 19:46
  walk in love. We walk in the spirit. So,
• 19:49
  I bind the spirit that that just that
• 19:51
  tries to get us to look at every problem
• 19:54
  like a catastrophe.
• 19:56
  A and and we and we thank you, Lord,
• 19:58
  that the roaring lion has no authority
• 20:02
  over us except what we give him. And
• 20:04
  when we don't cast our cares, when we
• 20:06
  don't walk in peace, we're giving him
• 20:08
  room. And so, we shut them out. We break
• 20:10
  every demonic strategy designed to make
• 20:14
  us uh distracted warriors.
• 20:18
  We're not We're not going to let this
• 20:20
  stress roll up on us. We're going to be
• 20:22
  alert. I thank you, Father. help us to
• 20:25
  be alert. So I bind the assignment of
• 20:28
  the enemy to divide our mind uh to to
• 20:31
  keep us double-minded. And and we we say
• 20:34
  we thank you that that we are armed.
• 20:37
  We're dangerous. We're advancing. Stress
• 20:39
  is not going to hold us into survival
• 20:42
  mode any longer. Any longer. I thank you
• 20:46
  Lord. I thank you Lord. I thank you
• 20:49
  Lord. I thank you father in the name of
• 20:51
  Jesus. I thank you, Father. I thank you,
• 20:55
  Lord. I thank you, Lord. I thank you,
• 20:57
  Jesus. I thank you, Father.
• 21:01
  We declare that the peace of God that
• 21:03
  passes all understanding
• 21:06
  guards our hearts and minds in Christ
• 21:08
  Jesus right now. And we thank you for
• 21:11
  that, Lord. We reclaim the rest that
• 21:15
  stress stole from our sleep, from our
• 21:18
  bodies, from our souls. We choose to
• 21:21
  rest in you. We choose to rest in you.
• 21:24
  And we declare and we thank you that we
• 21:27
  can lie down and wake up without the
• 21:30
  weight of stress sitting on our chest
• 21:33
  because God never sleeps or slumbers. We
• 21:36
  can sleep and slumber in peace. He gives
• 21:38
  his beloved sweet rest. And we are his
• 21:40
  beloved. And I thank you, Father. We
• 21:42
  reclaim the clarity
• 21:45
  that stress stripped from our thinking.
• 21:47
  We thank you, Lord, for clear minds. We
• 21:50
  thank you that our mind is sharp, that
• 21:52
  our mind is focused on you, Jesus, that
• 21:54
  we are free from stress. We declare that
• 21:57
  we can hear God clearly because stress
• 22:00
  is no longer jamming the frequency,
• 22:04
  jamming the channel between his voice
• 22:07
  and our spirits. My sheep hear my voice.
• 22:11
  I thank you, Lord. We stand on that
• 22:13
  word. And so we reclaim the joy. We
• 22:17
  reclaim the joy that chronic stress
• 22:20
  stole and suppress under all these
• 22:23
  layers of pressure. The living in
• 22:26
  reactionary mode, survival mode, stress
• 22:28
  mode. No, we thank you Lord. We reclaim
• 22:31
  the joy. The joy of the Lord is our
• 22:33
  strength. I thank you Lord. We declare
• 22:35
  that the shalom of God,
• 22:38
  the nothing missing, nothing broken
• 22:41
  peace, that is our inheritance. and we
• 22:44
  choose to walk in what you gave us.
• 22:46
  You've given it to us. We have it. It
• 22:48
  belongs to us. It is ours. We've already
• 22:50
  got it. And so, we choose peace. We
• 22:53
  choose peace. And we reclaim we reclaim
• 22:57
  that ability. And we thank you, Lord,
• 23:00
  that we can just be fully present, fully
• 23:02
  focused wherever we are. No stress
• 23:05
  hijacking our attention. We don't want
• 23:07
  to be somewhere else in our mind when
• 23:09
  we're sitting with our family and our
• 23:11
  friends. I thank you, Lord. I thank you,
• 23:13
  Lord. We reclaim the morning. We're
• 23:15
  going to say we we say stress. You have
• 23:18
  no right to to greet us before God does.
• 23:22
  I thank you that your mercies are new
• 23:24
  every morning, God. And we declare that
• 23:26
  we eat, we sleep, we think, we pray, we
• 23:29
  move without this constant weight of
• 23:32
  stress governing our emotions and our
• 23:35
  experiences. And we thank you Lord for
• 23:37
  for all the the spiritual sensitivity
• 23:40
  that stress dull because we were focused
• 23:42
  on the wrong thing. I thank you Lord
• 23:44
  that we will step into a new level of
• 23:47
  spiritual sensitivity and that our
• 23:49
  discernment will rise. Hallelujah. I
• 23:52
  thank you Lord. I thank you Lord. So we
• 23:54
  close every door. Every door that's that
• 23:58
  that that we opened or we allowed stress
• 24:01
  into. I thank you Lord. I thank you
• 24:04
  Lord. We shut it. We close every door
• 24:06
  that stress opened to the spirit of
• 24:08
  infirmity through chronic tension and
• 24:10
  overwhelm. We shut the gate stress
• 24:12
  cracked open for the spirit of
• 24:14
  depression. When the pressure became
• 24:16
  just too heavy to sustain in Jesus'
• 24:19
  name, we shut it. We close every door
• 24:22
  that stress opened to broken focus,
• 24:25
  scattered thinking, and just like we
• 24:27
  never finish anything because we're just
• 24:29
  too many too scattered. I break it. We
• 24:31
  we we shut the door on the spirit of
• 24:34
  isolation that stress used to pull us
• 24:37
  away from community or accountability or
• 24:40
  the support that we need. And then we
• 24:42
  close every door stress opened to the
• 24:44
  spirit of hopelessness.
• 24:48
  And we shut every gate that stress
• 24:50
  opened to the devourer by keeping us too
• 24:53
  overwhelmed to tithe or give or sew.
• 24:56
  Huh? A a and we break we close every
• 24:59
  door that stress opened to relational
• 25:01
  conflict when our overwhelm spilled onto
• 25:04
  everybody around us in the name of
• 25:06
  Jesus. And and we and we thank you Lord.
• 25:09
  We thank you Lord that that that that
• 25:10
  that we that that these doors that help
• 25:12
  us to keep them shut. Lord help us to
• 25:16
  keep them shut. That door of uh that
• 25:18
  door that the spirit of uh to the spirit
• 25:20
  of control that that stress activated
• 25:23
  because we just felt like we had to be
• 25:24
  in control of something. I break that. I
• 25:26
  break that. I break that in the name of
• 25:29
  Jesus. And I declare that every door
• 25:35
  that these doors, they're not just shut.
• 25:38
  I thank you, Lord. We seal them with the
• 25:41
  blood of Jesus and we say stress, you
• 25:44
  have no more access. We help us, Lord,
• 25:46
  to discern it quickly so we can resist
• 25:49
  it strongly. Lord, I said help us to
• 25:52
  discern the stress coming so we can shut
• 25:55
  it down before it gets our ear, before
• 25:58
  it gets our thoughts, before it gets our
• 26:00
  reactions
• 26:02
  in the name of Jesus. So we just break
• 26:04
  it free. We break the grip of stress off
• 26:06
  our mind. We declare the mind of Christ
• 26:09
  operates in us. We have the mind of
• 26:11
  Christ. We have so we help us Lord to
• 26:15
  operate out of the mind of Christ not
• 26:17
  the mind of the flesh not the carnal
• 26:19
  mind that's led forth but what we see
• 26:21
  here taste touch and feel help us Lord
• 26:24
  to live by it at a higher plane in
• 26:27
  another dimension I as kingdom citizens
• 26:31
  God in the name of Jesus and I thank you
• 26:33
  Lord we declare every physical symptom
• 26:36
  produced by chronic stress I declare you
• 26:39
  are healed now by his stripes you were
• 26:41
  healed
• 26:42
  I thank you, Lord. I thank you, Lord. I
• 26:45
  thank you, Lord. I thank you, Lord. I
• 26:47
  thank you, Lord. In the name of Jesus, I
• 26:50
  thank you, Lord. We we we don't claim
• 26:51
  stress. We're not going to keep saying,
• 26:52
  "I'm stressed out." We break that
• 26:54
  pattern of verbalizing agreement with
• 26:57
  what the enemy wants us to realize as a
• 27:00
  reality.
• 27:01
  We're not going to carry what God told
• 27:03
  us to cast. I thank you, Lord. I thank
• 27:06
  you, Lord. We We will not give the enemy
• 27:08
  what he wants. He wants our mind
• 27:10
  divided. He's not going to get it. We
• 27:12
  are focused on the Lord. We are
• 27:14
  single-minded. Our eye is singled. So,
• 27:16
  we're not going to be governed. This is
• 27:17
  our declaration. We're not going to be
• 27:19
  governed by what we feel in the morning.
• 27:22
  We're going to be governed by what God
• 27:23
  has said about our day. And we command
• 27:25
  our day to produce. We're not going to
• 27:27
  rehearse catastrophe. We're going to
• 27:29
  declare the covenant instead. We're not
• 27:32
  going to spend our life surviving. We're
• 27:34
  going to thrive starting today. We're
• 27:37
  not We're not going to move in
• 27:38
  overwhelm. We're just going to be in awe
• 27:41
  of God and knowing that he is with us.
• 27:43
  He is for us. He will help us. He's a
• 27:46
  very present help in time of need. We're
• 27:48
  not the grasshoppers under the weight of
• 27:50
  our circumstances facing a giant. We are
• 27:52
  giant killers who walk in the peace that
• 27:55
  passes all understanding. And we are
• 27:57
  fully persuaded that the God who numbers
• 28:00
  the hairs on our head is not too busy to
• 28:03
  help us. Hallelujah. And I thank you,
• 28:06
  Lord, that that grip of stress is broken
• 28:08
  today. Help us, Lord, not to let it get
• 28:10
  a fresh grip tomorrow or even later
• 28:13
  today. And we give you all the praise.
• 28:15
  We give you all the glory. We give you
• 28:17
  all the honor. There's no God like you,
• 28:19
  Jesus. You are magnificent. You are
• 28:22
  holy. You are our peace. And we thank
• 28:25
  you, Father, in Jesus name. Amen. And
• 28:29
  amen. Come on, somebody.
• 28:32
  God is good all the time. All the time.
• 28:35
  God is good. Praise Jesus. I used to be
• 28:40
  so st You know what I used to have a
• 28:41
  problem with was catastrophic thinking.
• 28:44
  I don't know if you know what that is.
• 28:49
  It's actually a real term. It's where
• 28:52
  essentially
• 28:54
  you make a mountain out of a molehill.
• 28:57
  you're believing the absolute worst
• 29:00
  which is contrary
• 29:02
  to the truth because God has a future
• 29:06
  and a hope. God has given us peace and
• 29:08
  joy and I mean I just I would go there
• 29:10
  in my mind
• 29:12
  and uh this was many years ago. I was
• 29:15
  just you know
• 29:17
  I was just falling for the enemy's
• 29:19
  taking the enemy's bait
• 29:21
  and some of you probably do that. Stress
• 29:24
  is not our portion. And stress actually
• 29:26
  causes diseases. Did you know that
• 29:29
  stress actually causes
• 29:31
  diseases?
• 29:33
  It's the it's the primary factor of
• 29:35
  disease. Stress causes inflammation.
• 29:37
  Inflammation is huge
• 29:40
  in disease.
• 29:46
  Jesus, it's huge. Inflammation is a huge
• 29:49
  factor in in every in almost every
• 29:51
  disease.
• 29:53
  Amen.
• 29:59
  Oh Jesus.
• 30:04
  Oh Jesus. So we have to resist stress
• 30:07
  like it's the devil star star staring in
• 30:08
  our face.
• 30:10
  What if you looked at it like that? When
• 30:12
  the stress when the feeling of stress
• 30:14
  comes listen when the feeling of stress
• 30:17
  comes you know that you have taken a
• 30:20
  thought because listen your your
• 30:23
  emotions
• 30:25
  always follow your thoughts. So if
• 30:29
  you're having a wrong emotion a bad
• 30:31
  emotion stress depression discouragement
• 30:34
  if you're having wrong feelings you're
• 30:38
  having wrong thoughts. And that's one of
• 30:39
  the quickest ways to learn that you need
• 30:41
  to cast something down.
• 30:44
  You got to cast something down. I I if
• 30:46
  you're feeling sad, you've taken a
• 30:48
  thought of sadness. If you're feeling uh
• 30:51
  angry, you've taken a thought of anger.
• 30:53
  You've taken a thought. Now, there's a
• 30:54
  righteous anger,
• 30:56
  but you've taken a thought. And so, what
• 30:58
  I want you to do is as we as we move
• 31:00
  through this thing with stress, I I want
• 31:03
  you to when you start to feel stress, I
• 31:05
  want you to stop.
• 31:07
  I want you to take a deep breath and I
• 31:10
  want you to pay attention to what you're
• 31:12
  thinking about. What was the thought
• 31:14
  that you took? And then you're going to
• 31:16
  listen. You're going to cast the thought
• 31:22
  and then you're going to cast the care.
• 31:26
  Amen. The thought and the care are
• 31:29
  intertwined. So, you're going to do
• 31:30
  both. You're going to do 1 Peter 5:7 and
• 31:33
  you're going to do 2 Corinthians 10:5.
• 31:35
  You're going to do both. You're going to
• 31:38
  cast the thought and the care and the
• 31:39
  care is a thought, but the care is
• 31:41
  bigger than the thought because the care
• 31:44
  is something that is actually real. The
• 31:47
  thought may not be real. You can think
• 31:49
  something that's not real. But when your
• 31:50
  child is sick, that is a care, right?
• 31:53
  You can think something, you can think a
• 31:54
  pure lie. The devil can tell you a pure
• 31:56
  lie. But, you know, when there's no
• 31:58
  money in the bank account, that's a
• 32:00
  care. You have to care but not care so
• 32:04
  much that you take take all the all the
• 32:06
  the weight of it because God also cares.
• 32:09
  So if he's caring, it's not that we
• 32:11
  don't care, but we don't care in a
• 32:12
  negative way. We care enough to pray. We
• 32:15
  care enough to seek wisdom. We care
• 32:17
  enough to stand on the word. That's the
• 32:18
  kind of care we take.
• 32:21
  Amen. Did you get it?
• 32:25
  Did you get it? I had such a revelation
• 32:27
  this morning. It brought me to tears.
• 32:29
  something I've been meditating on for
• 32:32
  probably two years finally sunk in. And
• 32:35
  I could have gotten it quicker if id
• 32:36
  have spent more time meditating on it.
• 32:38
  But I woke up at 3:25 this morning.
• 32:41
  Actually woke up at like 3:23 this
• 32:43
  morning. I laid there for a couple
• 32:44
  minutes. I wasn't sure if my alarm went
• 32:46
  off because I was so wide awake and I
• 32:48
  went to look at the the the clock and it
• 32:51
  said it was 3:25.
• 32:53
  And I said, "Well, I'm going to lay here
• 32:55
  for another 20 minutes. I don't have to
• 32:56
  get up till 3:45. I'm just going to lay
• 32:58
  here and meditate on the Lord. And when
• 33:00
  I did, all of the sudden,
• 33:03
  it dawned on me. Have you ever heard
• 33:05
  people say that? It dawned on me. All of
• 33:08
  the sudden, it dawned on me. And I I I I
• 33:12

• 33:14
  could see it and I could I I could just
• 33:16
  completely see it. I've been one of the
• 33:18
  things I've been praying among other
• 33:20
  things is Lord, open the eyes of my
• 33:21
  heart and help me to see. And I've been

  Lord, help me to understand the extent
• 33:29
  of your power for us who believe. I've
• 33:32
  been meditating on a lot of things, but
• 33:34
  it all kind of converged this morning
• 33:36
  and I was like, "Oh my gosh, it brought
• 33:38
  me to tears. I could not even I mean, I
• 33:41
  was just so clear. It was so crystal
• 33:44
  clear."
• 33:46
  And anyway, I'm probably going to do
• 33:48
  something with regard to meditating on
• 33:50
  the word for all of us. That'll be
• 33:52
  coming up maybe, you know, in a few
• 33:53
  months or so. I don't know because I
• 33:55
  want to really I I've been working on

• 34:22
  going to confront you with some things
• 34:23
  that you might not even see. You ever
• 34:26
  seen somebody and they've got like a
• 34:27
  piece of lettuce on their tooth
• 34:30
  and they don't know it and they're
• 34:32
  walking around looking goofy? Or how
• 34:34
  about this? When someone zippers down.
• 34:36
  When someone's walking around with their
• 34:37
  zipper down, right? And they don't know
• 34:40
  it, right? But everybody else can see
• 34:43
  it. Or how about this one? I don't mean

  to be too frank, but but but how about
• 34:46
  this one? when people have really bad
• 34:48
  breath and they don't know it. Well,
• 34:51
  there's some things going on in our
• 34:54
  souls that we don't see. And guess what?
• 34:57
  Other people can see it.
• 35:00
  Other people can see that you're bitter.
• 35:02
  Other people can see uh that you're
• 35:04
  stressed out and anxious. Other people
• 35:06
  can see uh they can see it because out
• 35:10

• 35:20
  like I said, I might have to do a part
• 35:22
  two after we do part one. I'm going to
• 35:24
  do a survey among those who took the the
• 35:26
  challenge. I'm going to say what is it
• 35:28
  that you need now? What what did because
• 35:30
  you know, like I said, I could do a
• 35:32
  60-day challenge, but it would overwhelm
• 35:34
  you and you wouldn't want to do it. But
• 35:35
  if we take it in chunks. Amen. So,

  Either will work. And I want you to get
• 35:53
  on in on that today because it is
• 35:55
  critical. You know, I noticed yesterday
• 35:58
  I asked how many of you have limit
• 36:00
  limits that you need to break because
• 36:02
  remember we were talking about dream
• 36:04
  wild and God told me take the limits off
• 36:06
  and it really does show me and I'm not
• 36:09
  trying to be canankerous but 80 83% said
• 36:13
  yes I've got limits. There's somewhere
• 36:16
  I'm limiting God. Most of that's you
• 36:18
  know in our thinking but like that means
• 36:21
  like 17% of people said no I've got no
• 36:24
  limits. Bless God. I've got there's
• 36:26
  nothing. My thinking is not limiting me.
• 36:29
  I I I have no limitations in my
• 36:32
  thinking. I've got no no limitations in
• 36:33
  my my my health. I've got no
• 36:35
  limitations. I weigh the perfect amount.
• 36:38
  I'm strong, you know. I'm healthy. My
• 36:41
  blood works perfect. I have no
• 36:42
  limitations in my finances. I've got
• 36:45
  investments. I I I'm creating
• 36:47
  generational wealth. I am I am I am the
• 36:49
  biggest giver in my church. I've got no
• 36:51
  limitations,
• 36:53
  Lord.
• 36:54
  I love you so much, my friends. But if
• 36:57
  you think you have no limits in your
• 36:59
  thinking, you're deceived.
• 37:01
  I'm not trying to be rude. I'm just
• 37:03
  saying if you don't think there's an
• 37:04
  area where you're limiting God, are you
• 37:06
  raising the dead? Are are are

  wells in Africa. We are rescuing sex
• 37:32
  trafficking victim. We are supporting
• 37:34
  ministries that rescue sex trafficking
• 37:36
  victims. We are doing all kinds of
• 37:38
  things, translating materials into uh I
• 37:41
  think it's like 35 languages now. And it
• 37:43
  all comes at a price. And God said men
• 37:45
  will give into your bosom. So I'm
• 37:46
  believing that you will give into our
• 37:48
  bosom as you can and when you feel led.
• 37:50
  and that people then will give into your
• 37:52
  bosom. Amen. That's how it works. That
• 37:55
  is how it works. And so God says it's
• 37:57
  more blessed to give than to receive.

• 38:01
  of Jesus for all those who are sewing,
