to one husband for the last thirty three years, and I have eight grandchildren.
3:45
I am coming upon my fifty fourth birthday in another week, and I
3:49
am so fatabulated, excited, grateful to God to give me the opportunity just
3:57
to be able to breathe and to still be in the life of the living
4:00
that told me that He is not through with me yet, and then I
4:03
still have something to do. So I'm grateful to be here. Thank you
4:08
so much for the opportunity, miss Angela Visionary Angela, to share on your
4:14
platform tonight. Thank you, Thank you. I tell you I happened across
4:23
your page. I think you were ministering, and it was just something.
4:30
I know it was the spirit that drew me over there, because I had
4:33
never come across your page before, and I don't know how long we had
4:36
been friends, but on that day, I was just drawn to your page.
4:42
And I tell you, I don't take any meeting lightly. I don't
4:48
think it's a coincidence. I know that was part of his master plan.
4:55
For me to cross, for us to cross path. And there's a message
4:59
on tonight for somebody that has tuned in. I tell you, when he
5:03
dropped in my spirit to do this podcast, it was for us to be
5:09
the opportunity to be the change that we desired to see in this world.
5:13
And I tell you, even in the midst of going through I watched you.
5:18
You continue to press and you continue to be transparent, and you continue
5:24
to tell people you know that this is life, this is this happens,
5:27
This happens to all of us, no matter who you are, no matter
5:30
what title you have, no matter what this happens. And people were transparent,
5:38
you were real, and that's what we need in this world today.
5:44
We truly need that. So I tell you I had to get you on
5:47
this platform because that is what I That's that's what I share that in everything
5:53
that I do, that's what I share. You know, people got to
5:55
understand we got to meet people where they are and we can't forget where we
6:00
came from. You know, we want to be we want everybody to come
6:04
own in and we want everybody to be right there on that level. But
6:09
we didn't just get there overnight. It took some time and we had to
6:12
go through some stuff. And I tell you, I'm gonna move on that
6:16
the way because I'm telling you I can go and I this ain't about me.
6:20
This is about you. I tell you you are doing some amazing things
6:25
and I just need the world to hear about you tonight. Okay, thank
6:31
you so much. So let me just you know, if you want to
6:33
share a little bit about me. My story. My story is one of
6:38
rejection. I am almost fifty four years old and when my parents just to
6:45
go back a little bit to their quick foundation, and I'm gonna bring it
6:46
forward in the time span that we have. When when my mother got pregnant
6:51
with me, my older sister, she was already about nine months old.
6:58
So this was our third I was the fourth child, and so my mother
7:01
didn't want me. It was the fourth child for my mother and the second
7:04
child for my father, so they didn't want another child. They were poor.
7:09
This is in Jamaica, over fifty years ago. So my mother decided
7:13
that she was going to have an abortion. Now, abortion in the Islands
7:16
is taboo, your outcast if anybody finds out that you do anything like that,
7:21
so they will typically just go to get some herbs, or drink some
7:25
herbs, or go to a bush doctor and have them whatever they did.
7:28
Then, so my mother decided that she was going to you know, wash
7:32
me out. And the night before she did that, she had a dream,
7:36
woman of God. She dreamt that her grandmother came to her and told
7:41
her not to halbort me because I'm going to be the one to take care
7:45
of her. So I literally was saved by a dream the night before my
7:49
mother was supposed to do away and wash the feet us out. And so
7:55
I came out of rejection, not because my parents didn't love me, but
8:00
in their mind they couldn't afford another mouth to feed, so they would have
8:05
rather not have an extra mouth to feed than to have an extra mode and
8:09
cannot take care of it. So I grew up into that. That was
8:13
the fabric of which I was moving into in the natural. And so you
8:16
know my mother, you know I was born. I was about four years
8:20
old when my mother and my father split up, And I remember that moment
8:24
vividly. When my mother and my mother and father started. They were fighting
8:30
because my father was cheating on my mother. He had another baby. Mother
8:33
with another baby out there and my mother found out and she was gonna chop
8:37
in with a machete, so I read. I was about four years old.
8:39
I got in the middle of them, and I started crying and holding
8:43
onto my dad's leg, and my mom held the machete, and my dad
8:46
was trying to take the machete out of her hand, and in the process
8:50
of him trying to take the machete out of her hand, it sliced her
8:54
hand. So my mom had a big slice in the middle of her hand.
8:58
So I lived and I saw that. I saw what you would call
9:01
abuse. In some sense. I didn't my father wasn't an abuser in terms
9:07
of physically, but in terms of, you know, the fact that he
9:09
was cheating on her and all that stuff, that's a form of abuse.
9:13
So I saw all of that, and in that moment, my sister and
9:16
now our lives was ripped apart. My mother and my father broke up.
9:22
In that moment, I remember my father moving out. I was about four
9:24
or four and a half years old, Angela. That's one of my first
9:30
memory as a human being. One of my first memory is remembering my mother
9:35
and my father breaking up, and I was standing on my father's shoes,
9:39
crying, and I remember that they broke up and we ended up living with
9:43
my mom and they lived in two separate towns. But my dad used to
9:48
come and get us on the weekends because my dad is now a police officer
9:50
in the Islands, and he would come and pick us up on the weekends.
9:54
And so one particular weekend he came and got us and we spread the
9:58
Saturday and the Sunday. Sunday afternoon, he was taking us back home.
10:01
When we got back to my mother's apartment, she rented a house in a
10:07
city in Kingston. This is in Jamaica. My mother had moved with her
10:11
new boyfriend. All of my clothes, all of my sister's clothes, everything
10:16
was gone. We didn't know where our mother went. And so in that
10:18
moment, again I am no experience in the third time being rejected by parentile
10:26
rejection the third time. So we ended up now living with my father and
10:30
a stepmother that didn't want us around. We weren't good enough. So we
10:35
when I said, we met my sister and I we became the Cinderella in
10:39
that home. We were the ones that would clean the house, do all
10:43
the dirty dishes, do everything. When school would open, we wouldn't go
10:46
to school for three weeks sometimes before we would get to go to school because
10:50
in the Islands you had to wear a uniform to school, so we didn't
10:52
get to go to school. So I was shaped in we're just feeling that
10:58
I don't belong or I was an obligation to those that were supposed to take
11:05
care of me. But I in my spirit, in my heart, I
11:09
had a resolve as a young girl that I was gonna become somebody. I
11:13
was gonna be somebody in this world. I was not going to let and
11:18
I don't know where that came from, because it wasn't taught. That I
11:22
was gonna make something up myself, and that was my own goal in life,
11:26
to become somebody. So I'm fast forwarding a little bit. Living with
11:31
my dad and my stepmom, you know the worst tree lived like a Cinderella
11:35
in the home. She didn't take care of us. We didn't get food
11:39
sometimes even though it was in the house. We had to clean. I
11:43
remember I went to school for seven point thirty in the morning and I had
11:48
to clean the front porch, the back porch, the bathroom. Sometimes I
11:54
had to sweep the front of the yard before I go to school, and
11:56
I'm talking about cleaning with a brush on my He's rubbing the floor, making
12:01
sure it shine. And so those are the that's the kind of life that
12:05
I grew up in. I know what rejection is, but what God did
12:09
to me in all of that, he gave me a whole level almost like
12:15
a whole different dimension of compassion towards other people. I have a big compassion
12:22
for people. I want to always help, Like my heart breaks when I
12:26
see homeless people on the street or you know I am, I'm quick to
12:31
help. I've taken my clothes off and I'm given to people before literally,
12:35
you know, somebody asked me for my outfit, and I stopped in the
12:39
market buy something else. I gave them the outfit that they wanted. I
12:43
live a life of giving just because of the just because of the fabric I
12:48
was created out of. And so as I grew up in life, you
12:52
know, I was able to come to the United States, and I cut
12:54
it a lot, because that's like several books before I did get to the
12:58
United States. But for time sake, got to the United States. And
13:03
as I'm here, you know, I got married and started a family,
13:07
and I got saved when I was about twenty five years old, three twenty
13:11
four, between twenty three and twenty five, I really got saved. Now.
13:15
My grandfather was a pastor, so I knew church. I grew up
13:18
in church. But I didn't give my life to the Lord or submit to
13:24
the will of the Lord until I was about twenty three, or between twenty
13:26
three and twenty five. But I remember when I gave my life to Christ.
13:31
I had a good job. I was always a lifelong student, so
13:35
I was always going to school. And that came from that rejection, the
13:41
residue of rejection that I had too that I felt like I always had to
13:45
be achieving something, always doing something, always trying to, you know,
13:52
aspire to do something. Always I'm always doing something. And I realized at
13:58
one point at that I need to stop because that was really because of the
14:05
residue. It's almost like nothing I do was good enough. I always wanted
14:07
to do more for myself, like nothing that I did was gonna be good
14:13
enough for me and to the Lord. I had to stop. But anyway,
14:16
and so God saved the living for the Lord, got married, have
14:18
three beautiful children, two boys and a beautiful daughter, and just living for
14:24
the Lord. And several years ago, you know, my I have adult
14:31
children, they're grown one of them and two of them is married. But
14:33
I have two buys, my youngest son, which is what I want to
14:35
own it on about when it comes to rejection. He met this young lady
14:41
and all of a sudden, he just exchange train, exchanged himself from the
14:46
family, does not connect to anybody in the family, doesn't talk to any
14:50
one of us. This is the son that God gave me. This is
14:56
the son that I was gonna a board and the Lord told me that he's
15:01
a son and he belongs to him. This is the sun that used to
15:05
bring me flowers from school. This is the son that made me tea at
15:07
night to make sure mommy and make sure I've give me a cup of tea
15:11
put at my bedside. This is the son that used to have Bible study
15:13
in my house. And this son talking about rejected as no rejected me,
15:20
rejected our family. He is I'm not sure where he is, don't know
15:24
where in the world he is at. This boy, don't know what he's
15:28
doing. And I am just crying out for mothers are our families that have
15:33
a child that just went apostas or just went rogue and don't know for what
15:39
reason, but let's actually disconnect themselves from the entire family. And part of
15:43
that is the rejection that I suffered when it affected me deeply because of the
15:52
rejection that I came on. So I tried to make sure I gave my
15:54
children everything. I worked hard. They went to college, the youngest one,
15:58
he's a nurse, and and just went to past it. And it
16:02
took me back to my life when I was younger and all the rejections that
16:07
I went through because I didn't talk about I love them because it would just
16:10
take too long that I went through, and how when I got pregnant with
16:15
him, I didn't want another child. I already had my daughter and my
16:19
son, and when I had when I got pregnant with him, I was
16:22
married, but I decided I only wanted to so I didn't want another child.
16:26
And I remember when I found it. When I was pregnant, I
16:29
myself was going to have an abortion, and then I had an I started
16:33
spotting, so I went to the doctor and they said that it wasn't an
16:37
eir topic pregnancy, and I heard the heartbeat. About three weeks old that
16:41
I heard the baby's heart beat, and I knew that time that it was
16:45
alive. And I said, Lord, let it be a boy, because
16:48
I already had a boy and had all the baby clothes. And I laid
16:52
my hands and my stomach. I was twenty three at the time, and
16:56
I began to pray with my stomach and I said, God, I give
16:59
this shall not to you. This one is yours, this one because I
17:03
wasn't going to keep him, and because you spared his life. If I
17:07
didn't hear our heart beat, he wouldn't have been here. You spared his
17:11
life. This one I'm given to you. I'm going to be the caretaker,
17:15
but he belongs to you. And that is the sum that is now
17:19
in a past and in an apostle state that has a disconnected himself for everybody.
17:26
We don't know where he is, what he's doing, we don't know
17:27
anything about him. And my heart it was just so broken over that that
17:33
I struggled with that for the last three and a half years. Women of
17:37
God, because it was no reason for it to happen. He met this
17:41
young lady and he basically Samson and Delilah, and and that pretty much is
17:48
that's the that's typically what's going on. It's a Samson and Delilah story all
17:52
over again. But I'm just praying for mothers out there that maybe I've gone
17:56
through rejection, that maybe I've gone through some disappointing things in your lives,
18:00
and they see that now duplicating in the lives of their children, that we
18:03
have to learn to break the struggle. And even though even though they might
18:10
have been out there, even though they're out there, we don't know where
18:12
they are. God knows where they are. Even though we might not know
18:17
what they're doing, God knows what they're doing. And I'll say to mother's
18:22
out there, don't stop praying for your son or your daughter, don't stop
18:26
praying for your children. Do not give upon them, even when they give
18:30
upon themselves. Because God is not a man. He cannot lie. And
18:33
whatever he tells you that he's gonna do, he will do it. I
18:38
gave this sum unto God, just like sam and mother gave him unto the
18:44
Lord. I gave him unto God. So I know sooner or later he's
18:48
gonna come full circle. And so sometimes when you've gone to rejection of your
18:52
own, you begin to wonder if you did something wrong, if you could
18:56
have did something a little bit better. You begin to basically blame yourself for
19:03
that because you feel like maybe it's something that you did or that that would
19:07
have made things be different in the lives of your children. But sometimes when
19:11
God have an assignment for them, he'll allow them to go. God allowed
19:15
Moses to wander in the in the widowness for forty years, to break off
19:22
Egypt off of him, so that he could build him up with in his
19:26
lifness and in his image. He didn't want. He didn't want Moses to
19:30
act like he's better than the than the Israelife. He didn't want, so
19:33
he made him walk to the desert, bearefooted without had to eat things for
19:37
food for forty years, and then he built him up again. Couldn't be
19:44
that God have my son out there, going into where he is so that
19:48
he can understand the language. He said, he's a Jew now, all
19:52
right, so he can understand that luck so he can go back and minniester
19:55
to the Jews. What if your daughter, your son is out there creating
19:59
or making testimony, I'm saying to you, like I say to myself every
20:03
day, don't give upon your children, even though sometimes you feel like you
20:08
can see the repetition that happen to you, you see it manifest. You
20:12
gotta break those those ties, but you still stand that you keep praying for
20:18
your children. Wow. Wow, I mean that that's heavy and a lot
20:30
of people need to hear that tonight because a lot of people are going through
20:38
I'm actually working on a book right now. It is a book for women
20:45
that are incarcerated. Some of these women have been incarcerated since they were teenagers,
20:52
fifteen, sixteen, seventeen years old and they're in their forties now and
20:59
a lot of have lost hope. They don't think that they'll ever see the
21:03
outside again. And God dropped in my spirit to just encourage them to just
21:11
just have people to write letters, affirmations, poems or whatever was dropped in
21:15
a spirit to just encourage these women. To let these women know that they're
21:22
not alone, that it's people out here that's praying for them, that's that's
21:26
that's wishing them well, and don't even know them. You know, sometimes
21:30
people just need to know that, you know, somebody's there with me.
21:34
You know what I'm saying, praying with me exactly, and you don't even
21:37
have to know what I'm going through, but we all going through that.
21:44
We just lived the persons in the county that I live in Florida, and
21:51
what I find is it's a very trensy and prison. They go in and
21:53
out and most of them are it's because of substance of boot views or selling
21:57
drugs or something like that. And what they would tell me is that they
22:02
said that they are afraid of the free world. I mean, the language
22:06
that these women use in prison is a whole it's almost like a whole language
22:10
in and up itself. And they said that they survived better. They prefer
22:15
to be in prison. The ones that I see, because they don't know
22:18
how to function in the free world. They're afraid that if they're in the
22:22
free world, they're gonna run into their their their dope give her again,
22:26
and they're gonna all their families has turned their backs on them, so that
22:30
they have nobody but the people that they use drugs with, and so they
22:33
have they have. They're very hopeless and sometimes when they share their stories,
22:37
some of them being molested when they were one of them. The father been
22:41
molested or since she was six years old, right up until she was an
22:47
adult, he molested her right upon. The parents, they were the ones
22:52
that started her drug a habbit. They gave her drugs when she were little.
22:59
She's been taken in drugs since she as long as she can remember.
23:02
So I hear the heart of the people women of God went when and all
23:07
of that too. The root of that is rejection. You know, those
23:11
parents that were dropped somewhere, you know, they were dropped. Nobody picked
23:15
them up. They had nobody to pick them up or pick them up the
23:18
right way, and so they grew up in life being dropped, and they
23:22
themselves don't have children that are dropped, and the cycle continues. And if
23:29
we don't break that cycle by reaching out to these women and letting them know
23:33
that they're loved unconditionally, and although they're in prison, although they're in prison
23:38
physically, they can be free in their mind, you know, because a
23:42
lot of times we have to be emancipated from the mental slavery. And if
23:48
we don't emancipate our minds from the natural bars, you know, we won't
23:55
be free from the spiritual bars. So we have to go back into them
23:59
and let them know. Although they may they may have perimeters around them,
24:03
they are free in their spirit, you know, because the Bible said whom
24:07
the Son said free is free. Indeed, there's a lot of people that
24:11
are walking in the free world and they are not free. They are bondage
24:14
in their minds. So many people now have mental health issues. And then
24:18
there's a lot of people in prison that are very free in their spirit and
24:22
in their mind. You know, joy is a state of mind. Happiness
24:26
is a feeling. And you can be in the midst of a fire and
24:30
have joy, or you can be around a lot of people and you're miserable.
24:33
You're not happy because you don't have the freedness in your mind. So
24:37
we have to encourage them and and and there's something that I do when I
24:41
listen to these women in the prisons. All of them issue is them from
24:45
rejection. It's even societal rejection, spousal rejection, parental rejection, cultural rejection,
24:55
some type of rejection is the root of what they're that that's is the
25:00
genesis of what they're experiencing now. And they're not walking in the results of
25:06
their actions that started from a rejection. So if we can help, if
25:10
we can fix the rejective issues, if we can get them and teach them
25:17
how to overcome rejection, which is what I do a mentor and overcoming rejection.
25:22
Uh, if you can, if you can get them and teach them
25:26
how to not internalize the things that happen to them on the outside, not
25:30
to not to let it become intimately a part of them, and don't see
25:36
themselves starting to mentor the other day and she said, you're not broken.
25:40
The situation is broken. So if they could understand that the situation that they've
25:45
gone through is broken, but they are not broken. They are not broken.
25:48
They're strong. And build that side of them, Women of God,
25:55
build that side of them, build up. Let that part the partner is
25:57
magnified in them and not the trauma that they're gone through. If we can
26:03
magnify the strength in them and diminish the trauma. Yes, we're not negating
26:07
the trauma. We're not saying that these things didn't happen to all of us.
26:11
We are saying that the strength that you have inside of you is much
26:17
greater than the trauma that you've experienced in a season in your life and the
26:22
fact that you're living and you still here breathing and gave a body that means
26:26
God is not through with you yet, and you still have a story to
26:30
tell, and you can go back and pull somebody else out, pull somebody
26:36
else out that experienced rejection trauma somewhere and pull them up and said, listen,
26:41
this is what I've gone through, and look how I'm dealing with it.
26:44
You know the Lord. The Lord gave me a title of a book
26:47
about twenty years ago that I haven't written yet. It's called Within the Walls
26:52
of Destiny. A lot of time society wait until they get to the victory
26:56
before they share and say, you know, but I used to What about
27:00
talking about it while you're in it, knowing that the God that you serve
27:04
can bring you through it. We have to start having people to say,
27:08
you know what, I'm not there yet, but in the process of me
27:14
getting there, I'm not gonna give the enemy satisfaction but feeling like I'm a
27:18
victim, I'm a victor because I'm walking through it. I'm gonna get through
27:23
this rejection. I've been rejected in many years of my life, but rejection
27:29
is not my story. I may have gone through rejection, but rejection is
27:33
not who I am. I am the daughter, I'm a queen. I'm
27:37
an educated black woman that is on fire for God, that wants to put
27:42
her sister up and checked the nation by force. That's who I am.
27:48
I remember Naomi and Ruth. When Naomi and Ruth went back to the city,
27:56
back to her city, you know, they called her Ruth the moabide,
28:03
right, and so they attached her name to a stigma of where she
28:07
came out of, which is paganism, man and child sacrifices, all that
28:12
stopped, right, So they attached where she came from to her name.
28:17
They never just say Ruth. They say Ruth the Moabite, Ruth the Moabie.
28:22
It's like they would say Michelle the Jamaican. So Michelle is not the
28:27
part that carries the way is the part that I'm Jamaican. And a lot
28:30
of people think Jamaican. Is this a Jamaican is not? So when you
28:33
attached me to where I'm coming from, you're not seeing me from me individually.
28:38
You're classing me in a whole ethnicity or a whole culture or an area.
28:44
And so they grouped her as Ruth the moabide, but they didn't know
28:48
that Jesus was gonna come from her lineage. Although she was Pagan by Ruth,
28:53
Pagan from our family heritage, her life became the Jesus came out of
29:00
our lineage. So I'm saying, not because these women you know were in
29:06
prison or because I went to rejection and they may go on to rejections,
29:10
that doesn't make us. That doesn't identify us. It's a part of our
29:14
story, but it's not what defines us. And until these women recognize that
29:19
what you've experienced doesn't define you. It was a there's a doct in your
29:26
story, it makes the story even better to read because you have overcome,
29:32
You've gone through it, and you're survived. And we have to stop waiting
29:36
until we get to the other side to share that. Although I'm not there
29:40
yet, I might still be behind bars, but I'm free in my mind.
29:44
I might still be behind bars and I'm facing X amount of time,
29:48
but let me tell you something, I'm an overcomer and when we begin to
29:52
share from that place, it will give women people in general more whole.
29:56
Because I realized, listen, I don't have to wait till I get there
30:00
to shout, I can shock right now. Wow, I'm telling you you
30:11
you was all up and I don't know you was all up in my conversation
30:15
I've been having all this week. I'm telling you. God is so good
30:18
because this is this is what I try to get people to understand. And
30:23
sometimes he just had to bring somebody to just just reiterate because somebody in the
30:30
back didn't hear it. Somebody somebody didn't hear it. And I tell you
30:37
God is doing something and and and and people need to wake up. They
30:42
need to wake up and understand who they are are. He didn't make no
30:48
mistakes, No, he didn't. Latanya has a show call. Delayed,
30:52
not denied, and and and that's what delayed, not denied. See,
31:02
people don't understand. Sometimes deny and it's delayed in our eyes. It's right
31:07
on time for God. That's it, because He will never deny you.
31:15
Jeremiah twenty nine and eleven. He declared that he had a plan for us.
31:18
He has to say not to bring us home. You know, I've
31:22
traveled. The Lord has allowed me for the last fifteen years to travel all
31:26
of us and preach the gospel. I'm I'm an international conference speaker, that's
31:33
part of what I do. And I've always had a drawing for women.
31:38
And last year the Lord allowed me to go to I was in Durban,
31:41
South Africa, preaching at a woman's conference there and it's a huge Christian church.
31:49
But the way how they had advertised the meeting, it was August night
31:56
is national Women's Day in South Africa, so the meeting was women's life.
32:01
But the church built it as a woman's day and not a Christian conference,
32:07
which was right. So a lot of Hindus came to the church. And
32:15
about me, about fifty percent of the people that were there were Hindus.
32:19
They weren't Christians. They came to the event right. They came to the
32:22
church. And let me tell you something I've seen. So many Indus came
32:28
to Christ came to the altar with their little dot in their forehead, raising
32:32
their hands. They want to know the God that we serve. They want
32:36
to know this Jesus, raising their hands. So although you may have gone
32:39
to some heartaches in your life and some setbacks, and some brokenness and some
32:45
hurts and disappointments, you know you may have a son that you love dearly.
32:50
You don't know where he is. You may have a daughter that you
32:52
haven't spoken to for years, don't know where she is. You may have,
32:55
you know, family members that you're fighting over this, are fighting over
33:01
that. It doesn't matter. Gods. God wants us all to let that
33:06
thing go and to focus on Him because there's a dying world out there.
33:10
There are people that are dying. There are people that are lost. There
33:14
are people that are very passionate over the wrong things they're feeling, people that
33:17
are willing to give their lives for something that is nothing to do with God.
33:22
And the church is asleep because we're busy. We're busy fighting for platforms
33:28
the body of Christ. You know, we're busy focusing on the wrong thing.
33:32
We allow the enemy to make us distracted. So when you have women
33:37
like you that want to come together and build a community, a family of
33:43
people that come together to say listen, man, Iron sharpens iron, and
33:46
the countenance of one brightens the other. You know, you do what God
33:52
will tell you to do. I'll lift you up. God. I'm doing
33:53
what God tell me to do, and I need you to lift me up
33:57
as well. And we work together, we can tear sick kingdoms, that
34:00
kingdom down. You know, a kingdom that is divided cannot stand. But
34:05
a kingdom that is standing together in unity, you cannot break it. Which
34:09
is one of the reasons that God had to come on and break up the
34:13
toe of Bible because the people were so united in what they were doing that
34:17
he had to split up the languages. He had to make let some people
34:21
talk Chinese and some people talk Spanish, and some people talk for He has
34:25
to separate the languages because there were so together in unity to do something that
34:30
is in apostasy. And if we could have the same unity to do something
34:35
to build the Kingdom of God. Can you imagine how many people that is
34:38
in prison that we could help so when they come to the free world as
34:42
they call it, when they come on this side, that they will know
34:45
how to how to survive because they're institutionalized. If they've been there in their
34:51
teens. One of my girls, she says, she's been going to this
34:53
particular prison since she was thirteen. She's in our farty, so she's back
34:59
and forth, back for back and forth. They've been institutionalized. They you
35:02
know, the people that you want to send letters to their institutionalize. They've
35:07
been there for decades. They don't know how to survive in this out in
35:13
the outside world. They have to be reoriented again, and we can be
35:17
the voice that would go in and help them to be re oriented from the
35:22
big from the inside, so when they come out they could be good citizens
35:28
of the society and the outside and not look at their the rejection that they
35:32
came out of, the sufferings that they have, what mom or Dad did
35:37
to them, who didn't do, who should have done and didn't do,
35:39
who didn't do and didn't do it right, all of that that will look
35:43
at that as a stepping stone, because That's what I've done with my life,
35:46
all of the hurd and the rejection that I've gone through. Every time
35:52
I've gone through a level of rejection, I use it as a stepping stone.
35:55
I said, Okay, Daddy, you're stretching me hot higher, and
35:59
I use are a stepping stone to get to this another place in the in
36:02
the things of God, or get to another place physically. But I don't
36:06
let I don't take it personally because I know that there's a real enemy out
36:10
there that doesn't want us to do what God has call us to do.
36:14
There's a real devil out there. The Bible said, we're wrestling out against
36:17
flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers and rulers of darkness and spiritual
36:22
wickedness in high places. So there's a lot of things that is happening in
36:25
high places. So I don't look at humans when they come. I ask
36:30
the Lord to show me the spirit behind them. And that's what we have
36:35
to do, is break off those troungholds behind these men and women that got
36:39
us, call us to reach to behind bars. So when they come out,
36:43
they don't see themselves as victims, but they see themselves as vigtors.
36:47
They've overcome, they've overcome, they're alive, and they're they're surviving. So
36:52
that's the passion of my heart. Women of God. Wow, that's that's
37:00
right up my alley. That's that's what I'm doing out in Texas. That's
37:07
I've been pouring into these women and men. We're definitely trying to get them
37:14
to identify themselves because a lot of them they ended up there because they didn't
37:17
have identity. They were in the wrong place at the wrong time, tagging
37:22
along because this is this this this is what I don't do just tag along.
37:28
You're talking about kids fifteen and sixteen year old getting adult sentences when the
37:34
adults it actually committed the crimes got a lot or not who they are because
37:43
a lot of them they've gotten in the system and they they've gotten lost.
37:49
A lot of them they were I'm talking about they had to do a whole
37:57
lot and it it's about understanding who you are, Understanding who God created you
38:05
to be, what your purpose is, walking in that purpose and understanding that.
38:10
Wow, I tell you you have definitely touched on some things tonight.
38:15
These ladies sitting again, Woman of God, I'm sorry, it's it's a
38:24
it was a delay. Go ahead. Yeah, no, you were saying
38:30
something and I didn't hear. Yeah, I was saying. There were a
38:36
lot of comments in the comments section. There was one young lady said,
38:43
boy, she came in at the right time. Ooh, you're preaching good
38:46
now. And another young lady said, that is God's timing is truly perfect.
38:54
So they were really enjoying what you were sharing on tonight. If you
39:00
would please, how can people follow you? How can they tune into your
39:06
podcast? How can they purchase your books? How can they support your ministry
39:13
And if you have anything that's coming up in twenty twenty four, if you
39:16
would like to share, the floor is yours and then we'll close out.
39:21
Thank you for the opportunity. Well, I am very very excited that I
39:23
am starting again a podcast in January, and it's called Word for Word,
39:30
and it's going to be a platform where I'm going to be interviewing the women
39:36
of God, men of God, different people on different topics, but it's
39:38
going to have a biblical spin because I am a minister of the Gospel,
39:43
so everything I do has to come through that vehicle. I am working at
39:46
a couple of books, like four of them, so now I'll be finishing
39:51
two of them pretty soon, so that will be out. And I travel
39:54
and I speak in churches and then I do conferences. If the Lord,
40:00
if you feel led and want me to be minister one of your women's conferences
40:05
or one of your confidences. I've been doing it for the last fifteen years,
40:08
traveled internationally all over pretty much all over the world, speaking to the
40:13
Body of Christ. I am very grateful to be on this platform because many
40:19
people don't do what you do. Women of God, many people. They
40:22
just want it for themselves. And you took it upon you to follow the
40:27
heart of God, which is to disciple your ministry. Because that's what you're
40:30
doing. You're discipling your ministry the Bibles and to go heat into the highways
40:36
and the byways, and you're using social media to go into the highways and
40:39
the byways, and you're not going by yourself. You call them the other
40:43
disciples and say, come on, man, come on, let's let's all
40:45
go. Let's go in there, go after the people of God. Let's
40:49
go get them and make them hold and give them some make them hold,
40:52
bring them back to that place that God has called them. And that's that's
40:55
an awesome thing that you're doing. And I'm very grateful and I'm grateful for
41:00
the platform. If they want to follow me, they can follow me and
41:02
Michelle McKenzie. That's my my Facebook page or my IG page is the Michelle
41:12
McKenzie. You can follow me, dear then Michelle McKenzie. But if you
41:16
need to reach me specifically, you could just reach the Woman of God if
41:21
you can't get me somehow, and she knows how to reach out to me.
41:25
But it's just an honor to just to be here, that just to
41:30
share and your heart is so huge. I can see that that you have
41:35
a burden for the people. You have a burden to see people fulfill their
41:39
purpose and their destiny, and that is that is very rare. I have
41:44
that burden myself and I want to do if you can stand on my shoulder
41:47
and get there, then you could use my shoulder. That's how I look
41:51
at it, and thank you for allowing not just me, but many to
41:53
use your shoulder, uh to get to, you know, another level in
42:00
where they want to be at. And sometimes the people that provide a shoulder
42:04
don't have a shoulder for themselves. But I want to tell you that some
42:07
God is that shoulder for you because I can tell that you do a lot
42:12
for others that it's not reciprocating. But God is the shoulder for you,
42:15
and He'll open many doors for you in twenty twenty four, many doors in
42:20
twenty twenty four. I pray a blessing over you women of God. I
42:22
feel the prophetic annointing coming here. So but I can feel that you carry
42:29
the weight and God is going to release that. You know, God is
42:32
going to release that because it's going to send your destiny helpers that really see
42:37
the vision in your heart and the passion in your heart and have the funds,
42:42
the finances to really take it where it needs to be. And He's
42:45
also going to move people that's just their users, and you know their users,
42:50
but you just because of your personality, you just let them be.
42:53
God is going to remove them because their wit, their weight, their way,
42:58
their wait. And every time you say I'm not doing it again,
43:01
you still do it again. You every time you say I'm not gonna do
43:06
it again because of the heart that you have. And God is going to
43:08
bring you into a place where you're gonna have people that genuinely, genuinely see
43:16
your heart and have they can't do what you do, but they have the
43:21
backing to make what you do better. And in twenty twenty four, I
43:25
hear the Lord said that your load will be lighter. Ah, God,
43:30
he said, your load will be lighter. Your load will be lighter,
43:34
Your load will be lighter. And I also see you traveling too. I
43:37
don't know if you're but I see you even moving. I am not sure
43:43
what's going on with that, but I see you moving and you're tying with
43:46
that idea and you're actually struggling with that. But Lord, it is up
43:51
the Lord. I want to let you know, Woman of God, it
43:53
is up the Lord, and you need to go for it and do it
43:58
fresh environment and knew this is coming upon you because it's putting you around the
44:04
no people, the people that are not all of them, but a great
44:08
portion of the people that you're around, Familiarity breeds contempt and because they're too
44:15
familiar with you because they knew you before. Whatever that before was, they
44:21
knew you before. And some of them are still in all that you're doing
44:24
what you're doing, and so God is gonna put you in circles that appreciate
44:31
what you're doing, appreciate the heart for what you want to do, and
44:37
will help you to take it to the next place. I pray you received
44:40
that word, Woman of God, because twenty twenty four is the beginning of
44:45
greatness for you. I see it's almost like I see you're stepping up three
44:49
steps and open the door. And as you open the door, it's almost
44:52
like the sun ray has come right in, like you're stepping into a brightness
44:59
brightnes Yes, He's going to do supernatural for you supernatural and he's gonna I
45:05
hear the Lord said, he's gonna amplify your voice. He's going to amplify
45:09
your voice. So let him do what he's doing. Okay, he's gonna
45:15
cut people that you It's hard to but you gotta let them be. Let
45:20
it be. It's okay, it's okay. It's not cutting that you don't
45:24
have contact. He's cutting so that you can move forward. So received that.
45:31
In Jesus' name, Every single thing that you just said was just confirmation.
45:43
I literally, I literally just had a conversation with someone on the phone.
45:49
I've been contemplating, and I'm just going to be real. I've been
45:52
contemplating to move to Texas. The call that I took before I came on
46:01
the show, someone asked me what would I do with five million dollars?
46:13
Literally, like, I'm gonna play this back to somebody when I talk to
46:17
them, because if I just tell them, they're not gonna believe this.
46:22
But everything that you just said came out of their mouths too well. He
46:27
he wanted to confirm that with you so that you did not know. I
46:35
don't as the first time I see the flight, the first time we connected
46:38
like this, you know that they yeah, but that's the Lord. That's
46:44
what he does, and he speaks to his prophets. But you want to
46:47
send confirmation to these people so that you don't have to waiver if you shoot
46:52
or shouldn't. And then when you're going, no matter what, you'll stand
46:57
because you know it's a God thing. You know, you won't say,
47:00
well, God, I shouldn't have. You know that God is gonna take
47:02
care of you. He's gonna do what it is to do because he's the
47:06
one that's sending you there, and he confirmed it in his word. He's
47:15
moving new environment, knew everything. He is moving, He's picking you up
47:22
and moving you. He is moving you. Please confirmation like wow, I
47:37
truly thank you. I invite you back. I I definitely so much You
47:45
said tonight just coincide with a lot that I've been saying over the last couple
47:50
of months, feelings, thoughts that I've had, even conversations that I've had.
48:00
I am doing a I'm getting back to doing a conference sort of like
48:06
an expo type conference for authors and black business owners, and I definitely I'll
48:14
talk to you off air, but I definitely would like for you to be
48:17
a part of it. We're gonna be going to different cities, different states,
48:22
about ten different locations we have on the schedule. We just got to
48:27
get everybody together and get everything just lined up. I have different people that's
48:32
helping me, that's in these different states, that's working on them, and
48:37
we're trying to get everything together. But it's gonna I'm gonna start here in
48:43
Murder Beach because I'm here in Murder Beach. So we're gonna start here in
48:45
April, and then May we're going to Texas, and then June we're going
48:52
to Illinois and then New York, and then we'll come back to Atlanta.
48:57
Then we'll come to North Carolina. Just different places, but we're gonna make
49:02
our lirounds and it's an opportunity for authors to come together. And you said
49:08
something earlier. You know, I'm a domestic violence survivor. I would shot
49:15
point blank range with us, all our shotgun I shouldn't be here, But
49:19
on my bed of affliction, I asked God, if he would raise me
49:25
up, that I would always share his goodness. And I knew I didn't
49:30
want to be in a poor pit, but I knew that he would give
49:36
me a platform or he would give me something that would allow me to do
49:39
that. So I started writing books and it gave me the opportunity to do
49:47
these interviews. And every time I would talk to people before the interview or
49:53
whatever, and I will always tell them it's more than books. And every
49:59
time I would come a live it always started off as books. But before
50:02
the end, I'll be no minister to somebody. I'll go back and look
50:07
at the video or somebody else saying, Angela, I don't be gonna remember
50:12
what I'm be gonna say. And I look at the video and it just
50:14
don't even seem like that that was me, Like that was that was you?
50:19
Girl like? But God just began to deal with me and it became
50:24
more than books, and it just became about people in purpose and understanding that
50:34
we didn't get dropped out of this guy, that there's a reason why we're
50:37
here and we're not meant to be alone. He give us our helpmates one
50:45
for another, and I needed that on tonight, every single word that you
50:50
spoke, I needed that. And sometimes that's that's what it takes, you
50:55
know. The visionary had to come from behind the scene. So that I
50:59
can receive this on tonight. See, God don't make mistakes. So I'm
51:05
grateful, I'm thankful, and we definitely will be in touch. Is there
51:10
anything that you would like to share before we leave? No, I just
51:15
wanted to tell you that I just keep hearing land real estate for you real
51:21
estate, but I hear land land real estate. So just be seeking the
51:25
Lord and that I guess a sense that he wants not just to have land
51:32
land, So just be prayerful about that. That's something that I know.
51:38
I just keep hearing that. But no, I'm good. I'm grateful to
51:42
be here. Thank you for the opportunity to share your platform. I thank
51:47
God for everybody that's watching. Then we'll be watching. I pray that if
51:52
there's any mother out there or fathers that are out there that are you know,
51:57
going through especially during this time, doing a holiday season, maybe they've
52:02
lost a son or a daughter. Maybe their their son or a son,
52:06
our daughter and or daughter is no longer in their life. Maybe they're just
52:12
exchanged like my son is. I pray that God will give comfort to your
52:15
heart this this this holiday season, and I pray for you that I've lost
52:21
a son or maybe have a son or daughter incarcerated, that you'll be encouraged
52:25
and just you know, just be strengthened in this time and knowing that God
52:29
has a plan for them. And this is not the God. He is
52:34
not a god of a second chance. He's the God of another chance.
52:37
And there's a big difference between a second chance and another chance. It keeps
52:40
giving you another chance as long as you're breathing. So be strengthened and be
52:45
encouraged tonight. Father, be encouraged mother, that you will see the reward
52:51
before the Lord closes your eyes. That you will see dest to be fulfilled.
52:54
Because God is not a man, he can't lie. Whatever he promises
52:58
you, he will it to pass. God, bless you. Thank you
53:01
for having me. Woman of God, visionary angela God bless you so much,
53:06
honored to be on your platform. Thank you for the opportunity. Thank
53:15

53:17
night. Thank you. Peace,
