• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Every man feels it, the pressure to lead, to overcome
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: and rise, even when the weight gets heavy in an
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: era that doesn't offer men easy answers. God's strategy is
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: a weapon, and as a man think of men, discovered
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: what happens when faith meets focus of when brothers refuse
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: to battle alone. Here wrot wisdom from voices like Bishop Teddy, Jakes,
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: Jason Wilson, Anthony O'Neill, and Moore to level up your faith,
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: your flow, and your future.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: The war started in heaven. In Revelations twelve, the war
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: started in heaven amongst the angels, and from the beginning
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: of time, Satan was cast down. Lucifer was cast down
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: out of heaven because Michael kicked him out. If there
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: was a war in eternity, there was a war in time.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: So Satan comes down in time and he cannot create
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: anything God. He all he does here what God has
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: promised him. And God said, be fruitful, multiply, replenty, said
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: earth and subdue. So Satan took that fruit and said,
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna use the fruit to tempt you with. I'm
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: gonna tempt you with something that looks like it's almost God,
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: so that you can feel like there's another way to
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: be fruitful without going through the process. And you've been
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: looking for shortcuts for years. You got to go through
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: what you gotta go through to get to where you're
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: trying to go. Do you hear what I'm saying. Every
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: step of a good man is ordered by the Lord,
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: every step. Some of the steps are in potholes, some
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: of the steps up the hill, but every step you
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: take is getting you closer to your destiny. Slap somebody
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: and say it's time for you to step Slap somebody
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: else and say, get to step it. Get to step it,
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: get to step in. Don't get to shouting, get to
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: step in. Get to step in on stefens, get to
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: stepping on Cocket's rice, get to stepping on the powers
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: of darkness that are standing in your way. Get to stepping.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: This is your season for you to get to step in.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: This is your season to be weaned. Notice that Hannah
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: could not bring Samuel into the temple until he was weaned.
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: We are tired of you still being on milk and
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: you got more title than you got food. You gotta
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: be weaned in order to be able to serve. So
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: when she had weaned the baby. She brought him into
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: the House of the Lord, and his life began when
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: he broke his hold on her nipple. So Samuel couldn't
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: find out who he was nursing on the nipple of
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: where he starts. He had to break away from the
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: source of his flesh to find the source of his life.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: And you're still hanging on to the nipple and trying
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: to be a great prophet, but you're still getting nourished
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: from that which is carnal. That nourishment has to come
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: from another place. It's got to come from another area.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: Because what God has for you, you can't be dependent
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: on mama or daddy, or sister or brother. You got
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: to be able to stand on your own two feet
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: and say, thus saith the Lord. And when God says it,
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: it is so, it is finished, it is done. How
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: many men are hearing what I'm saying right now? And
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: so from the battle that began in the book the
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: Revelation says, begin before the foundations of the world, and
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Sadan got cast out of heaven. So he got cast
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: out of the heavenly realms into the earth realm. So
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: he had to fight Jesus in the earth realm, So Jesus,
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: as soon as he got baptized, the spirit led him
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: out into the wilderness so they could fight. Y'all did
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: hear that the spirit led him out into the wilderness
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: so they could fight. Lucifer loss to fight in heaven.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: Now he has to fight him on another terrain. If
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: you notice, you're fighting the same thing in different realms.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: The names change, the address changes, but it's the same
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: devil that you had to fight over here is now
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: meeting you over here. But the same God that delivered
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: you over there will deliver you over here. And the
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: bie I Bos said that they waited it until he
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: had fasted forty days, and he was weak, and he
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: was tired, and then the enemy came because the enemy
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: had learned in heaven that he was fooling with power
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: and the wisdom of God, and he was a fread
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: to take him on at full strength. So that the
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: devil won't fight you when you're at full strength. He'll
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: wait till you get weak, till you get tired, till
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: you get depleted, because when you get tired, he thinks
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: he can trick you into taking a short cut. If
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: thou be the son of God, turn this stone into bread.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: Why would I turn the stone in the bread. When
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: I am the bread of life. I don't have to
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: turn her rock in the bread Because I am bread.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: Your father sain't manna in the wilderness. But I am
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: the true bread that comes down out of heaven. If
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: you eat this bread, if you drink this water, if
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: you receive who I am. I'm water that don't need
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: a source. I don't need a stream, I don't need
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: a creek. I can come out of rock. I'm self contained.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: I'm self sufficient. I'm a root freeing up out of
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: dry ground. I can't depend on people to supply my strength.
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: I'm self contained. Because I understand. This is a fight
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: they fought out in the wilderness. Jesus defeated him in
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: the wilderness, and the by said that when Jesus got tired,
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: the angels came down the minister to him. And when
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: you read it in only one gospel brings out this notation.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: It says it was in the presence of beast that
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: they restored him. God will restore you in the presence
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: of beasts. The beasts were waiting on him to die
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: so they could come in and kill him. But God
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: said hell, no, it's never gonna happen. Now, I'll wake
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: him up. I'll shake him up, carry him up. And
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: they were looking at him. In the presence of beast means,
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: I will prepare a table before you, in the presence
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: of your enemies, And I let the same people that
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: talked about you have to realize that you are my
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: beloved son in whom I'm well pleased, and I will
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: feed you, and I will nurture you. And I kept
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Joe enemies alive so they could watch you come back.
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: Good God, Almighty. I feel like I'm preaching to somebody,
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: and I don't even know who it is. But God
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: kept your enemies alive. You wanted him to destroy them,
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: but he didn't want them to destroy them. He wanted
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: you to have an audience so that when He raises
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: you up, there'll be no doubt that God is inside
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: of you. So pull up a chair and watch this.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: This is my season, this is my hour, This is
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: my time. This is the time that I get double
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: for my trouble. This is the time that I get
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: my sucking win. This is a time that I destroyed
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: the philistize. This is a time that the temple comes down.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: This is the time that they gone loses his grip.
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: This is the time that I walk in full strength.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: This is the time that my red sea parts. This
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: is the time that I rolled back Chilli Jordan. This
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: is a time that I possess the land. This is
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: the time that I removed the getting rights, the hit tights,
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: the jepisites, and everything that plagued me. I'm out for blood.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: I'm out for revenge. I'm out for attack. I'm gonna
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: show every double that to take me out. You mess
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: with the wrong one, You're fooling with the wrong one.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: I might have looked weak, But when I look weak,
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: I'm strong. When I look tired, I got strength. When
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: I look poor, I'm rich because I got a hidden treasure,
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: I got hidden mysteries. I got hidden wisdom. Can you
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: hear what I'm saying? Let me show you one final
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: difference between the wisdom of God and the wisdom of men.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: You don't know that the man is wise until you
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: ask the question. And when you ask the question, the
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: wisdom is revealed by the question. But God had wisdom
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: when there was nobody to ask, there was nobody to measure.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: He is wisdom. He is the Ancient of days. He
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: is God all by himself. He is all sufficient, he
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: is el Shadai. He is wonderful. He's my counselor he's
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: my resurrection. He's my life. Excuse me, He's my lily
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: of the valley. He's my bright and morning star. He's
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: everything I need. He's bread when I get hungry, He's
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: water when I get thirsty, whenever I get thirsty. He'll
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: turn into whatever I need. Who should I say, sitting me,
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: I am that, I am whatever I need to be
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: whenever I need to be is hallelujah. I don't turn
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: into it when you ask for it. I'm already in.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: There's so much healing in Jesus that he didn't even
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: know that the woman with the issue of blood had
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: touched to him of his garment. But he was so
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: loaded that once she tapped in, all of a suddenly
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: healing began to flow. The reason yolk's broken here It
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: wasn't that God showed up. God was in here before
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: you got here. It was that you tapped in. And
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: as many as you that tapped in, you receive the
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: power of God. But the power of God was always there.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: He's omnipotent, he's omni president. He's on missing. He's already there,
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: but you're not tapping in because you are not missing
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: for his wisdom for every problem in your life. There
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: is wisdom for every problem. God will give you the
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: gift of wisdom so that you can respond in wisdom.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: But God has a wisdom that doesn't have to respond.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: He is not reactive, he is proactive.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: Don't miss what's next. Register now for as a man,
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: think of twenty twenty six and step into your next dimension.
