Why the Name of Jesus Works for Some Believers and Not Others
Watch on YouTube ↗ Read transcript ↓
Summary
In one line: The name of Jesus is not a word you chant at the end of a prayer — ónoma means His authority, power, reputation and dominion. It works for those who bear it, who have become it; signs follow them without them even speaking.
First: normalise confession
- You can't repent of what you haven't confessed. Forgiveness comes through confession; repentance (changing your mind) follows and takes time — "confession is instant, repentance takes time." Repenting without confessing is "teaching an old dog new tricks."
- David was loved because he was quick to confess; Saul couldn't bear correction. God looks at the heart: be kind to someone who hurt you until your heart becomes kind — then you've forgiven.
- The church plans to train people to help others confess and stay accountable.
What the name really is
- Even Jesus couldn't always do miracles (Mark 6:5) — He carried human limitations. A miracle is unexplainable (water to wine, new eyeballs); healing is restoring the norm.
- Delays: even Daniel, greatly beloved, waited 21 days (Daniel 10:12-13). "Let the delay be God's timing — not me being unprepared."
- ónoma = more than a name — like a famous family name that makes doors open. "Whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name" (Colossians 3:17) — not only in prayer. Muslims and Buddhists say "Jesus" too; saying it proves nothing.
- "These signs shall follow them that believe" (Mark 16:17-20) — signs follow as a side effect. You don't say "in Jesus' name" to speak in tongues. Paul shook off the viper (Acts 28:3-6) — the name had become a covering. He himself was poisoned in church and survived. "If witches choke you every night despite every ritual, something is amiss — He gives His beloved sleep" (Psalm 127:2).
- "The Lord working with them" — Jesus followed them, confirming the word.
The angel who bears God's name
- "Beware of him… he will not pardon your transgressions, for My name is in him" (Exodus 23:20-23) — this malak is God Himself, the Son. In Sodom, Yahweh rained fire from Yahweh out of heaven (Genesis 19:24) — the Yahweh on earth spoke with Abraham; "Abraham rejoiced to see My day" (John 8:56).
- Trinity (church doctrine): Father, Son and Spirit share one essence; the Father is the source, the Son eternally begotten, the Spirit eternally proceeding. Jesus is not the Father manifested — "how does the Father pray to the Father?" Many popular pastors are, on this point, heretics.
- Jesus gave the same authority: "Whose sins you forgive are forgiven… whose you retain are retained" (John 20:23). Ananias and Sapphira thought they lied to Peter but lied to the Holy Spirit (Acts 5:1-11) — "Peter was no longer Peter." Elisha cursed Gehazi for taking a bribe (2 Kings 5:20-27). ("Don't become a killer — blessed are the merciful.")
- Jesus never invoked anyone's name — He cast out demons by the Spirit / finger of God.
- The sons of Sceva: "Jesus I know, Paul I know — who are you?" (Acts 19:13-16) — demons see the name in a person. You cannot corrupt the name; demons don't respond to it on behalf of evil. Peter's shadow healed people (Acts 5:15).
Called by His name — sonship
- "If My people, which are called by My name" (2 Chronicles 7:14) — God calls you by His own name, as he answered to his father's name as a boy. To be named by a lord is to become heir in his house; acting as your own person is pride.
- Eternal life has no beginning — God's love for you always was; "before you were born I knew you" (Jeremiah 1:5). You're His seed (sperma) (1 John 3:9) — "if God doesn't apologise for birthing me, I won't apologise for bearing His name."
- Grow up: his son Andrew once needed everything done; now he asks for what only the father can give. Hearing God vs. seeing in the Spirit — God asked Ezekiel "what do you see?" (Ezekiel 37:3). He described the contents of a sealed envelope by looking, not by God telling him.
- Jesus commanded fish for Peter's catch (Luke 5:4-8) and for tax coins (Matthew 17:27); rebuked the disciples for waking Him in the storm; told them "you feed them" (Matthew 14:15-21). "Stop fasting for money — call it: from the north, east, south and west."
- You're of Abraham's family now — stop citing your family curses. God told him to change his family's name so he wouldn't be tied to his people's limits. The bent woman didn't ask: "ought not this daughter of Abraham be loosed?" (Luke 13:10-16) — some are priority to God.
- Poverty mindset: at TJ Maxx, Prophet Angel told him to take what he liked; he froze for 20 minutes. "The demons of your family are still holding you… when I give you rain, take it." With a blank cheque, don't write $20 for gas.
- The apostles barely mentioned the devil; "Satan is always fighting me" is no badge of honour.
Prophetic acts & practices
- Prayer of confession and cleansing: "Your love is greater than my mistake… the devil can claim nothing in me."
- Declaring sonship (Romans 8:15-17) and pulling down every stronghold contradicting your divine nature.
- Calling forth resources from all four directions for God's purpose.
- On prophecy: it must be specific — "how can we be prophets who don't know where people's problems come from?"

I don't know if the people at home, but hear me by the spirit because my monitor is a little bit on the dark side. Not like the dark side as in evil, but they'll say, you see, he said the dark side, but hear me by the spirit of God.
Normalize confession. I'm going to say that one more time.
Normalize confession.
The church speaks a lot about repentance. But you cannot repent unless you confess. There is no such thing as repenting without confessing. You hear people say, "Repent, repent, repent, repent." But how can you repent of what you did not confess?
It's impossible. That is why most people cannot break the chains of addiction.
That is why a lot of people cannot break the chains of of sin is simply because most people are trying to repent without confessing.
You don't receive the forgiveness of sin because you repent. You receive the forgiveness of sin because you confess. Repentance comes after confession
because repentance is changing your mind.
Looking at God and saying, "Lord, that filth, I never want to do it again. Holy Spirit, help me to never walk in that path again.
applause
This are fundamentals in the faith. They really are, but they are so forgotten because most people don't understand fundamentals as it is, which is crazy. But maybe we pastors have failed and some don't even know the fundamentals because most people just grab the Bible and start preaching, but they don't even know the creed of our faith. One of the creeds of our faith is we believe in the forgiveness of sin.
Because if you don't believe in the forgiveness of sin, then what did Jesus die for?
Because Jesus came to liberate us from what? Sin.
So if we fail in confession, we are not fulfilling our faith. Trust me, you have sinned against God today. I have sinned against God today. I may have sinned against God in my thoughts, in my heart. I may have missed his will for me in the day. One way or another, you will miss God. Sometimes we miss him greatly. Sometimes we miss him by little. But the point is you missed him.
And if you miss him and you love him, you don't want to disappoint him. You want to be aware of where you missed it. And even if you're not where aware where you missed it, you look at him and you say, "Lord, I know you love me.
And many times you will not tell me where I missed it.
But I ask you to search my heart. Reveal to me where I grieve you because I want to please you with everything that is amen.
I want to please you with everything that is in me."
That should be our attitude. cons consistently and continually because if you continually live a life of repentance, which means you are always in confession,
what you're doing is you're showing God how serious you are about him
and you are showing him that you know that without him you cannot be pure.
David was loved by God because as great as of a sin as he was, he was great at confessing. When sin was confronted in him, he was quick to throw himself on the floor to fast and pray and say, "Father, forgive me. I'm a fool. Don't take your spirit from me." Saul was the opposite. You can't correct me in the presence of people.
You can't do this. You can't do that. God, let me tell you, God observes your heart more than your actions because the actions he honors is what aligns with your heart.
An example is forgiveness is difficult. You practice forgiveness. You really do. If somebody offends me and I'm upset with them,
I'm angry with them.
I will still be kind to them until my heart naturally becomes kind to them, then God claps his hand and says, "Now you are forgiven."
But if I just treat them nice, but I'm still gossiping about them, murmuring about them in my heart, even though I'm treating them nice, my heart is far from my actions. God still looks at at us and says, "Ah, you still need some work."
So repentance takes time,
but confession is instant.
Those who are clapping, may God give you grace to walk in purity and in righteousness.
applause
Look at your neighbor. Say, "Confession is instant."
Confession is instant.
Repentance takes time.
Repentance takes time
because nobody's mind changes overnight.
He doesn't any Oh, you're back. Nice to see you. Can you clap for him? He's back. He was injured trying to be a superhero, but he's back.
I didn't miss I I I but but hear me by the spirit of God
to the best of your ability.
When you live a life of purity, it requires asking for forgiveness all the time.
Imagine you're in a relationship. Some of you are married. Some of you are not married. Some of you are calling somebody for marriage. Some of you are friends with people. Would you love somebody that recognizes when they do you wrong?
In fact, you start getting shy and embarrassed when they are always saying where they are wrong. You're like, "No, don't worry about it. It's not even a big deal." But you recognize that you can trust them because they are aware of their steps.
The Holy Spirit is extremely sensitive.
He's always observing our heart.
You can love God and still struggle to re to repent.
It will take you time. How many of us in here have told God, "Lord, if you save me from this, I will never do it again."
One week later, Lord, I have done it again. You begin by what have I done?
What have I done again? What have I done some more? What have I continued to do? The reason why God doesn't get offended is because he knows repentance takes time. But repentance is only true if you confess.
Because the act of confession is giving it up.
Repenting without confessing He's trying to teach an old dog new tricks.
He may do it, but he doesn't really know what you did. Tomorrow it will be back to where it used to be.
Look at your neighbor. Say, "Neighbor,
neighbor,
normalize confession.
Normalize confession.
I can't hear you.
Neighbor, normalize confession.
I can't hear you.
Neighbor, normalize confession. I can't hear you
neighbor. Normalize confession.
To be honest with you,
I think this will be either towards the end of the year or towards or next year.
By God's grace, we are going to raise some people that will help people in confession as the scriptures say.
Amen.
Because some confessions you can't do it with God. You are carrying too much guilt. You need somebody to guide you through it.
Somebody that can help you be accountable too. Okay? Got to change some things now. Got to do this.
You got to do that because if we love the Lord, we want to please him.
Somebody shout hallelujah.
Hallelujah.
Say, Lord Jesus,
Lord Jesus,
I want to please you.
Teach me how to please you. Teach me how to please.
Lift your voice and pray. Lift your voice and pray.
Lord Jesus, I want to please you. Teach me, oh God. I want to please you, oh God. Teach me, oh Lord.

Teach us, Father. Teach us your ways. Teach us, Father. The art of is in you, Father. Whatever it may take, Father, cause us to walk. that prayer you
in Jesus name.
Grab your Bibles if you can. Colossians chapter 3:1 17.
Colossians chapter 3 and verse 17. I feel the power of prophecy in the air.
Hallelujah.
Amen.
I feel it in my spirit.
Hallelujah.
Are you there?
I want us to read Colossians chapter 3:1 17 all of us together.
1 2 3. And whatsoever ye do in the word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
I want us to read it again. Read it with your chest. Read it with all your intestines,
with all your might, with all your strength,
with all your breath.
One, two, three.
And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
That was a good rehearsal. Now we can read it for real.
Amen. Because this is a command to you by Apostle Paul.
Are you ready again?
Yes.
One, two, three.
And whatsoever ye do in the word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
Say, "Father, let the spirit of revelation come upon me." Father, let the spirit of revelation come upon me
that I may know your word
and know your ways
and know your ways.
Reveal them unto me now.
And Revelation Nation said,
"Amen.
You may sit in heavenly
places."
Hallelujah. Now, today I'm going to teach you how to use the name of Jesus.
Amen. Or some of you think you already know. We'll see if you really know.
Today, I'm going to teach you what the scriptures mean. When the Lord Jesus declares that when you pray in my name, I will do it.
What does it mean to use the name of Jesus?
Because if we observe in the church today, so many are preaching, declaring, but they can't use the name of Jesus. even though they declare it.
You can't see people being healed.
You can't see people being delivered. You can't see people being changed.
But they will shout Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus. No demon is trembling.
Thank you. Thank you, angel.
So, so, so people are declaring and they love the name of Jesus, but they can't make use of it.
You yourself, you're listening to me.
The name of Jesus has worked at times and other times it hasn't worked.
Can we be real?
You want to tell me every time you said in the name of Jesus what you asked for you got? Wave your hand if you if every time you use the name of Jesus it worked. Wave your hand.
Every time.
Every woman of God. You're not saying the truth. Even Jesus himself, it did not work every time. And he's Jesus. The Bible says Jesus went to a certain city. And the Bible says he could do no miracles except save a except heal a few.
What happened? I know you're in shock now. Everybody's like, but Jesus is all powerful. Yes, he is God.
But you have to understand as much as he was God, he was also carrying human limitations.
So what he wanted to do, he couldn't do. He had to do less than what he wanted to do.
And Jesus could do no miracle. Do you know what a miracle is? A miracle is completely divine intervention. You know, today we call healing miracle. We call deliverance miracle. No, those are not miracles. Healing is not a miracle. Even though it's a supernatural act, that's not a miracle. When you hear the Bible talking about miracles, it talks about water turning into wine.
You can explain healing, you can't explain a miracle. How does water become wine? You shall lay your hands on the sick and they shall what? Recover. You can explain that I prayed for you and that demon was causing you sickness has left and now the body is restored to its original function. All that means is whatever was hindering the norm is out of the way and the norm has come back.
A miracle is you had no eyeballs. God puts eyeballs there. Where did the eyeballs come from?
A miracle is unexplainable. Look at your neighbor. Say a miracle
miracle
is unexplainable.
Now it is true some people have higher results of what they ask for from God for sure and is definitely grace and I'm one of them. It took me some time to sit down and to gain some mastery where I began to understand some principles of the spirit that my ability to not get it right dramatically reduced.
But still human error and human weakness is always present with us and that keeps us pressing next to God. You see when the Lord prayed there was an instant answer. When we pray sometimes it take one week, one month, two months, three months then we get the answer we say yes God answered. It is true but God's design was not for you to wait.
Huh? Sorry. Oh, no. God will answer you. But the speed of answer is a problem because even Daniel being unesteemed. You have to understand when God calls somebody esteemed, he's saying you are outside of the ordinary. There's very few people God gave a title that is beyond what he called them. When God spoke about Moses, he said, "Moses, my friend."
When Gabriel came to Daniel, he said, "You are most esteemed." Meaning, when God puts everybody around, he picks you out of them. You are above them. You are an emergency to God. Even if there is no emergency, You are esteemed by God.
Amen.
But look at this. Even the most esteemed servant of God waited 21 days for something God answered immediately.
Let the delay be God's plan. Let it not be you. Let me let me talk to somebody on this side. Let the delay be God's time. Let it not be you.
I rather my delay be God saying, "I have planned for this to happen at this time. But let it not be me that when he gets to that time, God can still not perform what he said he will perform because I am not prepared for it."
Now, how does the name of Jesus work?
I have gotten this message many times where somebody will be delivered of demons and they will say he never mentioned the name of Jesus.
He's never Why is it not always me? Why does he mention the name of Jesus? Sometimes he doesn't mention the name of Jesus.
That just shows you're not educated on what the name of Jesus is. Your discernment is based on what is said, not what the spirit is saying.
Muslims call the name of Jesus.
Some Christians are even foolish to say we serve the same God. No, we don't.
Not at all. It's not the same thing at all. None. And Ishmael is not the father of Arabs. That's a lie. Arabs existed way before Ishmael. Ishmael's mother is an Egyptian. So you want to tell me Arabs are Egyptian descent?
No.
That's a lie. If anybody that has just studied theology, you know, Islam is made up.
So just because somebody chants Jesus doesn't mean anything. Buddhist say he was the greatest grandmaster.
You should aspire to bring the Christ in you. That's what they teach. But are they talking about your Jesus? No.
They may even refer to the real Jesus, but the point is they can't make use of his name anyway.
Now, the reason why I picked this verse is because it explains more of what I want to share with you today because it's going to shift you.
Is going to position you to a place where you'll be a man or a woman of little words but great manifestation.
Amen.
applause
Father bless those who are clapping their hands. [cheering] All those who are watching online, I welcome you in the name of the Lord. Share the video, like the video, and God will bless you. Now, I'm going to read this for you and then I'll go to another scripture so you understand what I'm saying. And whatsoever ye do, notice he did not say just when you pray. HE SAID, "WHATEVER YOU do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus."
Most Christians only know how to use the name of Jesus when they pray
because they think the name of Jesus is the magic spell. After I vent before God, I want a house, I want a marriage, I want a baby, I want this. If I say in the name of Jesus, then God will answer me. That is a complete misunderstanding of what the name of Jesus is.
What does the name Anoma? The word name there is an in Greek. Anoma does not mean name.
An means more than name.
I'll say it again.
Ana means more than a name.
Because a noma represents because everybody who carries a name, a significant name, that name represents the authority, the power, the influence, the dominion, and the reputation the individual carries.
I'll say it one more time. The name of a person represents the authority, represents the power, represents the reputation, represents the dominion and represents the influence of the individual.
That is why some family names are more honorable than others. Why? Because the deeds of that family is represented by that name.
A few years ago,
if you heard somebody called Elias, it didn't mean much.
But if you're in the church circle, you hear Elias. Oh, is he prophet's son? I know he has two boys. Or is he one of his sons? In a few years, that's how it's going to be. Oh, that's one of Why? Because, oh, his father was a M. Does he have the same gift? Notice immediately the name challenges the children to live up to it because of the reputation of who bears that name.
I have been privileged to work with some athletes and some musicians and all that when they invite me to certain places where I go and meet with them to talk to them and I get there.
They're like, "Uh, who are you here to see?" I came to see this person. Oh, you really? Oh, I'm sorry, miss. Immediately, they change their attitude because they're like, "H how that person told you to come?" Oh, man. They know they have to treat you differently because if they dishonor me now, they're in trouble with the person that told me when you get there, just say, "You came to see me." Amen.
If you challenge the name, you're challenging the authority.
You're challenging the power.
Are you tracking now?
So, the name of Jesus is not what you say.
Because God did not put his name on our lips. are yours.
There was a transformation that happened when we gave our life back to God after the redemption of the cross.
There are things that changed that now if you begin to look at scripture soberly, you begin to understand things a little bit different. Mark 16 chapter 17. Mark 16:17.
Mark 16:17. I want you to see this. AND THIS SIGN SHALL FOLLOW THEM that believe in my anoma.
He's not saying if they say my name.
Are you noticing? HE'S SAYING THESE SIGNS WILL FOLLOW THEM THAT believe me in my anoma, in my authority, in my power, in my D.
I feel like I'm talking to the wrong people because you will notice. What is happening here is them not saying anything. He's saying these things will follow them. Meaning it will be a side effect of the activation of the name of Jesus within them.
And this sign shall follow THEM THAT BELIEVE IN MY NAME. They shall cast out devils. They shall speak with new tongues. Tell me how many people speak in tonesues. Wave your hands if you speak in tonesues. Now I have a question for you. Do you ever say in the name of Jesus for you to speak in tonesues?
You just speak in tongues because you carry it. You'll be saying, "Father, I bless you. Father, I adore you." There is no rat.
You didn't say, "In the name of Jesus, let me speak in tongues." Then
Father, punish those who are not clapping with a blessing.
They shall take up serpents. Let me give you an example. Apostle Paul is gathered with some people traveling with them. They all everybody had a turn to light the fire and to add firewood. Apostle Paul goes and puts more firewood and a snake comes out of the fire and bites him. So everybody is watching him to die because they are seeing a venomous snake just beat him. But Apostle Paul treats it like a mosquito bite and continues about his business.
Everybody's watching him saying when is this guy going to die? Do you know why he did not die? The name of Jesus was
The name of JESUS WAS NO LONGER WHAT HE SAID. IT BECAME A COVERING. IT BECAME A LET ME TALK TO SOMEBODY. THE NAME OF JESUS NEEDS TO BECOME A COVERING.
NEEDS TO BECOME A HIDING PLACE.
IT'S NOT JUST SOMETHING YOU SAY.
It is something you become. Say I am becoming.
I am becoming. You see the plan of God was always this.
For those he forneew,
he also predestinated to be conformed TO THAT IMAGE. THAT IMAGE IS WHAT? The authority, the power, the essence.
God did not want you to just say Jesus. God wants to look at you and see a duplication. [cheering]
applause
Come on.
That is why we have become coairs with Christ.
God did not add our NAME TO THE TITLE.
OUR NAME IS ALREADY ON THE TITLE BECAUSE WE SHARE THE SAME NAME WITH JESUS BECAUSE IN HIM WE MOVE AND HAVE OUR BEING. IT IS NO LONGER US WHO LIVE BUT HE LIVES. [cheering] I FEEL LIKE AM I SPEAKING TO SOMEBODY?
[cheering and applause]
Look at your neighbor. Say, "I and God are one."
I am God one.
According to the words of the Lord Jesus.
According to the words of the Lord Jesus.
So, so, so you're noticing something different here.
The name is not just something you say.
Now, now watch this. Now, watch this. They will take up serpents and if they drink any deadly thing, it didn't say if they pray for it.
You know, a few years ago, I was poisoned here in church.
Yeah. I had to tell them, oh, God told me I was poisoned by this individual and that person left
and told me tell them to change who handles. That's how it was changed. I didn't die.
Yes sir. [cheering]
May the grace be your portion too.
This is why so many of you have this issue. If I did not pray at night, witches come and choke me.
Yet the Bible is saying he gives sleep to his beloved.
Something is a miss. Because if Jesus is in me and I am in him, when there was a storm, he could fall asleep because he knows he's not drowning.
You You will do every ritual under the sun. You will anoint every wall in your house. You will plead the blood all over your house. You will take a Bible and make it your pillow and lay on it. And at night still, they come and they choke you.
May you be delivered from nonsense.
Amen.
Look at your neighbor. Say, "Neighbor, may you be delivered."
Neighbor, may you be
delivered. Make sure they don't manifest.
laughter
Now look at this.
They shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover. Verse 19 is so beautiful.
So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up in heaven and sat on the right hand of God. Now listen to this verse 20.
And they went forth and preached everywhere the Lord working with them.
Now we know Jesus is not present but the Lord is what? working with them because his authority he gave it to us.
His power he [cheering]
I feel like I'm talking. Let me let me speak to those who are online. SAY I RECEIVE THE GRACE OF OUR LORD JESUS.
I receive the grace of our Lord Jesus.
That is why when we fast we always have that prayer. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit
be with us now and forever more. Amen. The reason why we say that because the grace of the Lord Jesus is the benefits of him being the son of God has also been extended to us
working with them and confirming the word with the signs following them. So Jesus was just following them. Everything they were doing, they were doing it like him. And for him to prove that they have the name, he performed what he spoke to them. Now, I want to show you that this is not a new concept because I want your mind to really be open because by the time we are done, you should walk into a house like this.
If there are demons, they run. Amen.
Because just you being present,
YOUR ENTIRE BEING IS SHOUTING JESUS, JESUS, JESUS, WITHOUT YOU EVEN OPENING. AM I SPEAKING TO SOMEBODY? [cheering]
applause
MAY YOUR SMILE DECLARE JESUS.
Just you LOOKING AT SOMEBODY, MAY THEY FEEL JESUS. [cheering]
YOU GREETING SOMEBODY, MAY THEY FEEL THE PRESENCE of Grab your Bibles. Let Let me show you this.
Hey, father. Father. Genesis chapter 23 from verse 20 to 23.
Exodus. Exodus 23. Sorry.
Exodus.
Yes. whatever Issa said. Exodus 20 23 from verse 20. Now the Lord has just set the children of Israel free. Now he's giving them rules and regulations because the children of Israel were accustomed to seeing angels around them. Their fathers before them saw angels. The angelic being around them was not a new thing. It was a normal thing.
But now God's God wants Israel
to be aware of a distinct angel that is coming to them. Because the word angel in Hebrew is simply mala. Malak just means messenger.
The word mala was not exclusive for angels. It was a title that just means messenger. If you look at old English, it will use the word messenger a lot. And as it evolved, we we kind of gave it a divine essence to mean that I when I just say messenger, I mean human being. When I say angel, I mean a divine messenger.
So God wants to tell them guys the one who is coming among you
is not just an angel.
This is actually me.
My son is coming among you.
Because according to the Jews, they know that Yahweh has a son. If you read the book of Genesis, the most perfect example of this is Abraham meets God.
And God is working with Abraham. And Abraham is negotiating with God concerning Sodom and Gomorrah.
And the Lord tells him Abraham,
I've seen those the sins of these people, man. It's too much. And I have come down to see it for myself.
Now when you keep reading it becomes very interesting. While Abraham is still speaking to God, the story goes to Sodom and Gomorrah where Lot is with the angels. And the angels are telling them, "You guys got to go now because God is about to level this place." Then the Bible says something very strange. It says, "And the Lord rained fire." The word Lord there is Yahweh. He said, "And Yahweh rained fire on Sodom and Gomorrah from Yahweh in heaven."
Oh, you've never seen it. Can you bring it up for me? I don't know if it's Uncle Musa who's up there. Can you find it for me before we come back to this because I want you to see it for yourself so you don't think this is a fabrication. If you're in my disciplehip class, I was teaching you about the trinity. I went into depth about these things.
Did you find it, Chaz? Huh? Genesis 18. You can read it, Uncle Will, or the I want it on the screen because I want people to see it.
It's very interesting because it's telling you there are two Yahwehs and saying, "Oh, the Yahweh in heaven is the one that is sending fire, but the Yahweh on earth is talking to Abraham.
Uhoh. Okay. Genesis.
Uh, Genesis. Okay. Now, look at this. Genesis chapter 19:4.
Genesis chapter 19:4. Listen to this. Then the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah, brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven. I mean we all know God is in heaven. Why is it saying that? Because the Lord was also with Abraham and the word Lord there is actually Yahweh. So it's saying and Yahweh rained
fire from heaven from Yahweh in heaven
because when you read Abraham is meeting Yahweh on earth and Jesus even said Abraham was glad to see my day.
So why is it making that distinction? Because we know the father and the son share one divine essence but they are two different persons.
Jesus is not the physical manifestation of the father. No, Jesus is the physical manifestation of the son and in him is the fullness of the godhead.
Because if Jesus is the father, how is the father praying to the father?
Doesn't make sense. Because the Bible tells you in Philippians, I believe chapter 2, it says, "Let this mind be in you that was also in Christ Jesus." He humbled himself, took the form of a servant, and became obedient to his father unto death. And you hear Jesus praying saying, "Father, I have glorified you. Now glorify me with the glory I shared with you before the world began."
So Jesus is as much God as the father and as much as the holy spirit. And I taught you guys uh yesterday or disciplehip class the difference is the father is the source.
That is the only distinction. The son is begotten of the father and the spirit proceeds from the father. That's the only distinction. But they are equal in everything except the father begets the son eternally. Meaning there was no point that the son was not but he has always been and is begotten of the father and the spirit the spirit proceeds from the father eternally.
This is church doctrine. This is Christianity 101. The church fathers taught this. The apostles taught this. This is real Christianity. Most of the most popular pastors, they mean well, they love the Lord. But when it comes to the nature of God, they are heretics.
Yeah. Heresy.
And it's because they don't know, but it's the truth.
It's heresy. Now, watch this. Let's go back to our scripture, Exodus.
Now, I want you to notice Yahweh was in heaven and Yahweh on earth.
But I want you to see something here. Now that is interesting. Exodus 23 from verse 20.
Behold, I send an angel before thee to keep thee in thy way and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared. Always remember no angel can take you to what God has prepared. Only God can. That is why Jesus said, "I've gone to prepare a place for you and I will come back and get you and receive you unto myself."
Same thing. He has never changed. Verse 21.
Beware of him.
Warning. Be aware of it. Like be very cautious.
tread carefully
with him
and obey his voice.
Provoke him not God. Which angel is this? Are you don't provoke him. Don't disobey him.
Regular angels you you disobey them. They're like, man, okay, you you disobey me. You disobey God. Then they said, "God, this person is not listening." They intercede and they pray for you hoping you come back to the path. But this one, if you disobey him, there are consequences. You don't listen to him, there are immediate consequences.
Listen to this. For he will not pardon your transgression. This guy can refuse to forgive you and you're going straight to hell.
Why is he not able? WHY IS HE WHY DOES he carry the authority that he can decide not to forgive you?
The next line tells you, listen to this for my name is in him.
It will make sense in a second.
applause
He's saying, "Hey, this is not just any angel.
This angel bears my name." Meaning, this angel is me.
Are you paying attention to this?
Are you sure you're paying attention to this?
Now, now watch this. Jesus is telling his disciples, "GO INTO ALL THE WORLD,
preach the gospel.
Whoever receives you, They are receiving me.
Whoever rejects you,
they are rejecting me.
Whoever you forgive their sin, they are forgiven. Whoever you refuse to forgive their sin,
their sin will not be forgiven
BECAUSE HIS NAME IS ALSO in [cheering]
applause
I feel like the church missed it teaching.
You have read this the whole time, BUT YOU ALWAYS SAY NOBODY can forgive sin. Jesus is telling his disciples, forgive them, and if you refuse to forgive them, I won't forgive them. How did it become up to a human being to decide who is getting forgiven or not?
So some people will say I don't need to ask anyone for forgiveness. There are some people you need to because they can keep you guilty in the sight of God.
Oh you want me to give you a prime example? I'll show you in the Bible. Ananas and Safhira.
They come to Peter.
Oh, you guys are Oh, Peter, you know we are devout members and they're doing this because they saw everybody else selling their properties and giving money to the church. So, they wanted to join the club so that they can be recognized. So, they came the they came to him. They said, "Oh, Peter, we sold our land for this much." And this said, "Are you sure?"
The husband says, "Yeah."
Then he looks at him, he says, "Why did you allow Satan to deceive you and to corrupt you?"
Wasn't the land you own?
Even if you said sold it for $5, it doesn't matter. It's your It's your It's It's your land. You didn't need to do this.
You thought you were lying to me.
But you're lying to the Holy Spirit. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Peter, I am talking to Peter.
You didn't see Peter saying, "Oh, it is I, the Lord." Peter was having a regular conversation
but the whole time Ananas and Sapphira don't know they are talking to God
and Peter is looking at him and saying listen because you thought you only talking TO PETER BUT YOU DON'T KNOW PETER IS no longer Peter
because it's no longer I who lives but Christ who lives in me
and the life I live in the flesh. I live through the faith of the son of God.
applause
I want you to UNDERSTAND
WHEN PEOPLE TALK TO YOU, they are no longer talking to you.
Come on.
AMEN.
WHEN THEY LIE to you, there will BE CONSEQUENCES. WHEN THEY ATTACK YOU, THEY WILL BECOME. [cheering]
FATHER, let those who ARE CLAPPING AND SHOUTING, LET THE FIRE OF THE HOLY GHOST
REVIVE THAT NATURE,
HALLELUJAH,
THAT IS IN CHRIST JESUS IN THEM.
HALLELUJAH.
applause
Peter
healed them.
Peter denied Jesus. Jesus didn't kill him.
Peter denied Jesus three times.
Jesus didn't kill him. Jesus, I will die for you. Peter, come down. Oh, Jesus, I will. Peter, tonight you deny me three times. But I have prayed for you that your faith will not fail. See how merciful Jesus is. But Peterro,
you thought he spoke to the son of God and the son of God was merciful. The son of God puts his name in Peter. Peter has temper issues.
So you are undermining me because you think Peter is just Peter. You think I'm still that fisherman. It's no longer me. You're talking to the Holy Spirit. There are men at the door coming to pick you up to bury you. The man falls down. Boom. Dies. The wife comes. The wife lies also. Instead of telling telling her, "Your husband just died. Repent."
He lets her implicates herself and says, "Behold, those who buried your husband, they also at the door coming to take you to bury you." Boom. Dead.
You look at the prophets, it's very strange.
Very, very strange. Elisha has his servant with him. His servant goes and collects an offering that Elijah did not want to cor Elisha did not want to collect because the person dishonored him and he wanted to show the man that we don't need your silver and gold. uh because his servant was greedy, the servant went behind closed doors and took bribe.
So he comes back. Elisha asks him, "Hey fam, where did you go?" Say, "I wasn't anywhere. I was just around." said, "Don't you know? My spirit went with you while you stood by the chariots. I was there. Is this the time to collect bribes? Is this the time to do this?" Now remember, this is his spiritual son.
But he saw it as a highlevel treason against him. You know what he said? The sickness I cured that man of is coming upon you and four generations.
Bro, why are you so mean?
The Bible says instantly his skin became white as snow. He became lepros instantly.
I am begging you,
don't become a killer. has a
You know what? I made a mistake to teach you this message. Some of you will become too aggressive. Relax.
Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive what?
Don't put a standard that when God puts it on you, then now you are stuck.
Now, I want you to notice something here. Whoever bears the name is not just speaking it. Let me prove it to you.
Are you ready?
Whose name did Jesus call to perform miracles?
He never called anybody's name.
Because Jesus wasn't a Christian.
We who follow him are the ones that are called Christians. But when you read scriptures, you realize something. Jesus says, "I cast out spirits by the spirit of God. I cast out demons by the spirit of God. I cast out this by the finger of God."
We never said he heard you say in the name of Yahweh. Why? Because to Jesus, me and my father,
applause
if you have seen me, you have seen But you need to say Jesus for Jesus to be seen through you.
What a disaster.
I am not saying don't I'm not telling you not to call on the name of Jesus. I'm trying to teach you it's more than what you chant.
It is more than what you chant.
The people who call on Jesus the most are the most hypocritical.
The people who call the name of Jesus chant the name of Jesus all the time are the most judgmental. The people who call the name of Jesus Jesus majority of them don't even know him. So as much as they love him, they cannot function in him because they don't even truly know who he is.
And they don't understand their inheritance in him.
When the sons ofKeva tried to cast out a demon, they said in the name of Jesus whom Paul preaches, you know what the demon said? Jesus, we know Paul, we know. Who are you? Why are they saying we know Paul? Because when you say Jesus, we can see Paul in there. But we ain't never seen you guys.
But the sons of Ska were priests. They were children of a priest.
That is why when the Lord Jesus saw a man casting out demons in his name and the disciples tried to stop him and Jesus was really angry because he understood that you can only use his name if his father has placed his name in you. He said he's not against us. How can he be against us when he's using my name?
Satan does not cast out Satan. But to show you that majority of the people you guys sometimes watch,
they'll be the first one to tell you, you'll go to these people, they lay hands on you in the name of Jesus and they're putting demons on you. When did demons ever respond to the name of Jesus positively or negatively? Jesus is saying that cannot happen. The church is trying to convince you that it happens. Not even the church. Let's not say the church. some pastors
because when you are corrupted, you see to the pure all things are what? Pure. You cannot corrupt the name of Jesus. You can corrupt yourself. Corrupting the name of Jesus is impossible. You can dishonor it, but you can't corrupt it. At the name of Jesus or at the mention of the name of Jesus, every knee shall bow and every tongue will confess in heaven on earth and under the earth.
The name works period.
But the issue is the understanding of the name is a lost art.
Peter is going to Ralph.
People know Peter goes to Starbucks at 12.
That's when he goes to get his coffee.
Okay, he passes through this way. We just need to lay people where his shadow can touch them.
So the shadow of Peter was screaming Jesus. [cheering and applause]
You see how YOU'RE CLAPPING? FATHER, LET THAT GRACE COME UPON THOSE WHO ARE WATCHING FROM HOME.
applause
IMAGINE,
imagine that. It's it's quite fascinating. They just are laying sick people by his shadow. They just know if they are touched by the shadow,
they are healed.
They don't even need to disturb him to say anything to him. Bro, just pass. Just make sure your shadow hits this way.
That's all they cared about.
Peter, we don't need you to do prayer lines. Start laying hands on people. We don't need you. Just walk, sir. Keep walking.
applause
Greater is he that is in you. [cheering] IF YOU BELIEVE THAT, SHOUT AND CLAP YOUR HANDS AND DECLARE, "JESUS IS IN ME.
Jesus is in me."
Hear me by the spirit. Let me show you now. Now, this will make more sense to you in a second
because some of you still not hitting you.
Oh, loy load.
M
2 Chronicles chapter 7 and verse 14.
You have read this so many times but for the first time you will have an aha moment.
for the first time you have a a you know sometimes when God talks to me and he teaches me certain things
I want to like break my phone run around I want to like kick everything break everything just because it's too much Yesterday I had a prophetic class with with those who are in the prophets institute. They're in the what is it called? Acceleration. They're in the acceleration class. So I was having a class with them. And I was teaching them the difference between hearing from God and seeing in the spirit.
I was teaching them the difference between okay God has told me this and this is what I see in the spirit.
If you notice Ezekiel had a very interesting experience with God where God asked him son of man what do you see? God was asking him what do you see? Because God was testing his spiritual capacity within him independent of the Holy Spirit.
Because hearing from God and seeing in the spirit are two different things. Witches see in the spirit but they don't have the Holy Spirit.
Yeah, they do. Some do more than others.
They not anywhere close to what your prophet can do.
Hey, I'm making my boast in the Lord. If you don't like it, that's your problem. But because they asked me a question, they said, "Pap pups, how how are you prophesying to a certain woman? You grabbed the envelope without seeing what was inside and you described what was inside. Did God tell you that?" I said, "No, God didn't tell me that. I looked at it." How did you look at it without opening it? because I can see in the spirit.
Now God can also tell me that is what is in there. But seeing in the spirit is an exercise. So I made them do a few exercises. Some completely missed it cuz I was teaching them to discern their own spirit. Then I said, "Okay, let me show them an example by myself so they don't think I'm just training them something that maybe I'm setting the bar high for them." So I asked one of my sons, owner, okay, I give him a verse to read. So he reads it. I said, honor,
can you tell me your your don't tell me your address. Tell me the door number to your your apartment.
He said, "Well, it's this and this and this." I said, "Okay." I gave Chaz my phone. I said, "Read it." Not only did I write the number, I also told him, by the way, I don't know the order, but these three numbers are in the number exactly to the T. Now, I did that on purpose. Like, how? I said, because I wanted to see it.
So, in the same way, God does not just want you to depend on revelatory knowledge. He wants you to have divine revelation in you
that you don't always have to wait to hear what God is going to say when the name of Jesus is already in you.
applause
Some of you are still asking God, Father, do you want me to prosper?
Some people tell, "Oh, you know, prophet, I had a dream and I had a lot of money around me and I was holding stacks almost making a phone call with it." You know, what does it mean?
Saying, "If you ask me one more time, the African in me will show up." Because when you see a negative dream, the first thing you do is you start binding and rebuking
in the name of Jesus. Spirit of death, I bind you. You see the blessing. Instead of saying I receive it, your first thought is
prophet, what is this?
Show that to somebody in the world. They won't need confirmation.
What they saw is confirmation. Period.
Now, now you've read this verse so many times. What I'm telling you should be automatic.
It should not be something you think about. It should just be spilling out.
Are you ready?
Can we read it together?
One, two, three. If my people which are called by my name,
stop right there.
What name does God used to call you?
His own name teaching.
Let me let me let me look for somebody I can talk to.
Maybe you didn't read it clearly.
If my people who are called
by my name.
God doesn't call you John. God doesn't call you Peter. God calls you by his own name.
So when ANGELS ALSO SEE YOU, THEY CALL YOU BY his [cheering]
name. IF GOD IS YOUR FATHER, HOW CAN YOU HAVE A DIFFERENT NAME from your father?
[cheering]
When I was growing, when I was little, I didn't understand it. My father was a famous musician. When I grew up, I realized every time somebody said Loi or they said Lomba, which was my father's last name, I would find myself responding because all those names are also my name. Then they had to make a distinction. Oh, this is Lisa's son.
Ah,
okay. Because if you just say loi, I will respond too.
And if I was old enough with my father and you said loi, we'll all say yeah. Because you don't know which one you're calling because the name, if you call the first name, it's the same name. You call the middle name, it's the same name. You call the last name, it's the same name. Like I was a junior from the first name to the last name.
But God has done the exact same thing.
Do you know why God gives us eternal life?
God doesn't just give us everlasting life. He gives us eternal life.
Now, I'm going to bring your awareness to something. What does it mean eternal? Something that is eternal is something that has never been created.
It's something that just proceeds from God.
So when God, changes you and puts Jesus in you, he gives you eternal life.
That life that he puts in you is a life that has no beginning and has no end.
Now you you are thinking about it just like I will live forever. No. When God puts eternal life in you, you have always been alive with him. You have always shared love with him. [cheering]
applause
Because if God begins to love you now, then he is not God at all. Because there WAS A POINT OF TIME he did not love you. But God being love, he has to always be in the state of loving you. So if HE PUTS ETERNAL LIFE in you, it means the love that he's sharing with you is a love that has always been before you are even conscious.
And this is the truth because how do we know this? For those he forneew, he also predestinated
to be conformed to his son. Meaning your life is just destiny settling back to a love that was already waiting for you.
I feel like I'm talking to myself.
applause
So for you, you are thinking Jesus loves me now. He loves you with an eternal love. Meaning he has been loving you before he created anything.
So if he put his name in you, it means that name has been in you before you even knew it. Look at Jeremiah. Before you were born, I knew you. He didn't say I know you. To him, you are the past tense. I knew you.
I separated you. I ordained you a prophet from your mother's womb. I set you apart. Jeremiah is wondering when did this ceremonies take place where I was separated from my mother's womb where you put me together in my mother's womb. It happened in eternity.
If you don't learn to use the name of Jesus, you are playing yourself.
Some of you, you're not getting the results you have been praying for because God is waiting for you to mature. You see, when Andrew was little, I'll do everything for Andrew. He needs this. You say, "Daddy, he need this." You say, "Daddy, boom." He will need this. You say, "Daddy, boom. It's done." Then he became a big man.
Come here. Stand up, handsome, boy. He's almost my height. He's trying, but
applause
now yo, clap for my offspring, you know. [cheering]
applause
This is another version of me because the blood flowing in him is not his own. It's my blood.
The name he carries is not even his name. He's living somebody else's life without even knowing.
Yes. Now, whatever he does, he's simply an extension of me.
Whether he knows it consciously or not, if he knows it consciously, then he has something to pull that is within him because he's aware of it. If he's not conscious of it, he will live below what his father did because everything that his father carries, the DNA and everything is also in him.
So he would ask me for everything now when I'm hungry.
Hey Andrew, you know those noodles you made me the last time?
Yeah, pups, that's what you want. Okay. He'll make me some crazy noodles and I'm like this boy. But once upon a time I had to feed him. Now the things he asks me, it is no longer the things he can do. He will ask me for things that I only can do it for him. But he also knows how to trick me because he knows it's very difficult for me to say no to him.
Where are you guys going? I you know we're just around. Boom. I get a phone call from the mall. Boom. Dad, you know those shoes I told you about. What shoes? You know the shoes we've been trying to get? Can Can I get this? I know. I mean, it's okay if you say no. He knows I will never say no.
applause
He doesn't ask me at home.
If we at home and I'm like, I'm going to the mall. Oh, dad, can I come? Yeah. Yeah, we haven't gone together in a while. Because when we go there, I was like, dad, I'm going to can I look at some shoes on that side while you're doing like, okay, I already know.
But for me, my joy is that when he does that, he reminds me how far God has brought me. that my children know if they want something they can get it.
applause
A few weeks ago, I was getting videos of the same car, same car, same car. Everywhere the same story.
Now, I could not send my dad a text tell him, "Hey, I saw this car. This is the car I want."
I didn't have those privileges. I couldn't do that. How can I do that?
But his inheritance is different. My inheritance was DNA. Nobody left me anything. My mom left me spirituality.
My father left me his talents and his grace and his spirituality too. And when I speak spirituality as I say the prayers they carried for us which is the most valuable thing that I may have things that I can give them that I never had.
applause
Sit down.
Even this one stand up.
[cheering] Why you celebrating? I don't celebrate her. Boo. [cheering] She has a moments too.
She has two modes.
In my culture, to say big brother, you use the word yah in the front. Y, you know, I
Benny, what do you want?
Because she knows if she does that and she really wants it, I will make it happen one way or another. Oh, you know, my favorite car is just a Jeep.
Go and buy it yourself.
But they have understood that if that is my brother is my father whatever he has if he's really for me his joy will be to give me those things. Listen to what the Bible says. Sit down.
[cheering] The Bible says this.
Jesus is not only your father. He's also your brother.
He is also your God. He's also your savior.
applause
So he wants you blessed more than you can think or imagine.
If my people which are called by my name shall humble themselves. Every time you think you're your own person, you're prideful.
Because if you're called by his name, he owns you. If you are not surrendered to that name, it means you are prideful. You are your own Lord and your own master. You can't say Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Yet a Lord is the one who decides what you eat, where you go. He's your ruler.
If my people who are called by my name because every lord had a choice to give whomver he owns whatever name he wants and if a lord names you after himself he has made you an inheritor in his own house. So here's now the question.
Do you have the name of Jesus?
Do you genuinely have
the name of Jesus?
Because if you genuinely have the name of Jesus, there are some complaining is some complainings you're making in your life will stop.
Some crying you have in your life will stop. Some troubles you have in your life will change. You will walk differently. You are in 2026, but you will have if Jesus was in 2026, this is how he would walk. [cheering]
This is how you'll say hi.
applause
But for you, you have no identity out of Christ. We don't have an identity out of Christ.
But we keep trying to create an I know. And you know, I used to love this song until God taught me this. I know who [singing] I am. I know who I am. I know who I am. I am yours. I am yours and you are mine. IF THE CHURCH GOES CRAZY, OH, JESUS, you are. But when they are done,
if you ask them, "What does it mean to be his?
I am born again." No, that's not what it means to be his.
That's not what it means.
That's not what it means. Don't you know that ye are God's?
If you are his,
the Bible literally says you are his seed.
In Greek, it literally says you you are his sperma. It uses the word sperm unapologetically.
Don't you know
you are his
sperm? That's crazy. saying you came out of his loins.
Yo, this is graphic. No, but God is trying to tell you, listen, I don't apologize for birthing you. [cheering]
Hallelujah.
IF GOD IS NOT APOLOGIZING FOR BIRTHING ME, I WILL NOT APOLOGIZE TO BEAR HIS NAME. [cheering]
applause
You manifest less because you don't know who you are.
The kingdom of God is within you. He's saying all my resources inside of you.
You don't need to go anywhere. It's right there.
Don't have a diluted Christianity.
Have the real thing. It's much better.
Let me tell you something. There is nothing worse than being anointed and frustrated because nothing is working.
The meanest people in church is because they know they anointed but they can't make anything happen with the anointing over their life. So their validation of being spiritual is the devil is fighting me. Jesus said they under your feet. So the badge of honor is Satan is always fighting me. No, not Satan is under my feet. Not Satan is defeated. You know Satan is always fighting me. Uh ah Jesus never even said that. Where are you getting this?
If you read the gospels, you realize something very interesting. And you go even into the acts of the apostles and beyond. You realize that the the apostles never really cared to mention the devil.
We talk about the devil way more than they did. chaos.
They were not ignorant of spiritual warfare but they think they knew that everything in the spirit is settled. Their biggest challenge was navigating human beings with the heart that we do not wrestle against flesh and blood. We can't take anything personal from these people because these people are fallen and broken and sometimes Satan takes advantage of them but we are here to save them. They had a completely different understanding.
But for majority of us, if the name of Jesus is in you, Jesus meets Peter trying to catch fish.
And Jesus gets on the boat and Jesus speaks to the fish. The Bible says that. And Jesus spoke to the fish and the fish started jumping in the net. That Peter got the biggest catch of his life. That their boats were sinking, the nets were being broken. They brought another boat. It was too much. They had to stop taking it. And he looked at Jesus and said, "There's not even anywhere to sit or stand." He had to kneel on fish and say, "What do you want with me, Lord? I am a Jesus, pay your taxes, Peter. Go catch a fish. Find you'll find two gold coins.
Pay your taxes and my taxes. Jesus didn't even use his own money from ministry to pay taxes.
You could send a fish to go and collect treasure under the sea.
applause
Whoever shall speak to this mountain,
the storm is raging. You notice the boat is now filled with water. They went and woke Jesus up. They said, "Lord, don't you care? We perish." The Lord Jesus gets up very upset, rebukes the wind. Comes the water and then looks at them and says, "Where's your faith? Lord, what are these expectations you have for us?" Because to Jesus is like really you woke me up for something you can do.
Jesus send the people away.
and get something to eat. Jesus didn't say that was a good idea. Do you know what he said? You give them what to eat. Lord, we just told you there are no stores here. The food we have is for us. Send these ninjas away. And you're here saying you feed them. And there is 5,000 men, not counting the women and the children. If we count and the average people in those days had at least four to six children. We are talking at we are talking of about 20,000 people.
You are saying you feed them. Then a little boy understands what Jesus is saying. Says Lord I have five loaves and two fish.
Say let me show these guys for the second time. Because remember this is the second time Jesus is feeding the multitude. The first time was 4,000 men. The second time was 5,000 men. So the first time he didn't tell them, you give them what to eat. He did that on the second time. I have already shown you. Repeat.
Stop praying. Father, bless me with some finances. Get up in your house and say money.
I call you to me
from the north, east, south, and west.
Don't you know I have a project to do for God? Don't you I feel like I'm talking to the wrong [applause and cheering] but you you will fast and pray for money yet you can call it. Jesus called it from the mouth of a fish. He says, "Whatever I do, you shall do also and greater works.
Everything for you has been separated from the spiritual. That is not God's will and that is not God's wish. I'll say it again. That is not God's will. That is not God's wish.
I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children beg for bread. You are not a beggar. When did you become a beggar?
You shall lend to nations. When did you become a borrower?
All this happened because you forgot.
Hello. Hello.
Hello.
The fear of the devil
is the day that you will discover you and the Lord are inseparable. Listen to what the Bible says. That which is born of the spirit is spirit. He did not say it is the child of the spirit. Jesus was conceived of the holy spirit.
That was evidence that he was god because that which is born of the spirit is spirit not it will become is.
You are born of the spirit. But if they ask you what family do you come from, you start mentioning your generational curses. But you come from Abraham's family now through Jesus Christ. You're in the you're in the bloodline of Abraham minus all the curses minus all the
STOP REFERRING TO YOUR FAMILY'S CURSES. YOU DO not belong to them. [cheering]
Am I talking TO PEOPLE WHO BEAR THE NAME of God?
Nah, God changed my name.
Said, "No, that's not your name. This will be your name. Change my name."
I told my whole family, "Hey, God changed our name from today. This is what it is." Years ago,
I waited for the time that I can do it. And he told me, "This is the time." My whole family switched it. Why? Because God does not want me tied to the limitations of my people.
My people have done great things, but God called me to surpass those things.
And God has called you to s Amen.
The louder the amen, the greater the celebration.
Amen.
The permanent [cheering] the miracle shall be.
Hallelujah.
I will finish with this.
The Lord Jesus is at a temple teaching.
All of a sudden, there's a woman with a hunchback walks in.
Jesus sees her. stops preaching immediately, drops everything and his full attention is on that woman. He goes to that woman, heals her immediately and everybody's complaining. Jesus's excuse is very strange. He says, "Do you think it is right for this daughter of Abraham?"
The daughter of Abraham didn't need to ask for healing.
[cheering]
applause
Blind Barameus had to cry.
The father of the young girl had to beg.
These are people with serious issues.
SON OF DAVID, HAVE MERCY ON ME. LORD, MY DAUGHTER IS DYING. LORD, my daughter is dying. Please have mercy. She's dying.
Then one person who is not even caring that Jesus is there. She just came to church but inside of her she knows Abraham is my dad. The reason why Jesus did not like the other people were claiming Abraham to be their father because the seal of Abraham was not in them. It was on their lips but it was not in them. That Jesus said if Abraham was really your father
then you will react the same way Abraham reacted when he saw me. Because if you are his children, his physical and spiritual DNA should be in you. That when you see me, YOU WILL FEEL WHAT YOUR FATHER FELT WHEN HE SAW ME.
applause
She's not praying for healing. She's not asking for anything. She's just walking in the church. Jesus stops and says it is wrong for daughter of Abraham to be sick. The same Jesus they came to him they said Lord why are you selling why why are you taking this perfume you should sell it and give it to the poor. Jesus said the poor you will have with you always.
this one because those guys are not going anywhere.
There are people that are priority to God. This is scripture. The prayer of the righteous availth much.
But to be righteous is to have right standing.
Why should God bless you? Everybody ask God for a blessing. But God doesn't bless everybody. He blesses some people and some people more than others. and others don't have his blessing. Why should he bless you?
I am that seed of Abraham. You said I won't lend. You said I won't borrow.
You said I will never beg. You want Abraham to look bad, that's on you.
But if I am what you say I am,
then it's in your best interest for me to reveal that your word is true.
[cheering] Rise up on your feet.
Hear me by the spirit of God.
God is calling you to higher ground.
I said God is calling you to higher ground.
Don't just be impressed with things.
Become the thing that God uses to bring people to himself.
God has so much more to do through you, with you, for you.
I was telling I was telling uh uh when these guys went to the store, everybody said what they want.
Then Sam, who is my other son, hits me later. It's like, uh dad, is it okay? I told him, why would you have my name and not behave like the other guys?
If they are taking something, don't wait for them. Take yours, too. because I will never have them have something that you will never have.
Are you not all my children? Are you not all Eliases? So why would I do it for one and not do it for the other? I told him change that mindset. Is it not true?
Yes, sir.
I told him off because he's done that a few times. I remember years ago.
I'll share my testimony with you and you will laugh at me, but remember everybody starts somewhere. This was like 16 years ago. 16 years ago is a long time.
Andrew was barely a few months. And I share these things because I am not ashamed of my genesis.
There are people who want to show you a picture that never existed. I'm not that guy. I will tell you exactly where I came from because to me it is my story. And it proves that God is with me.
applause
In those days, I was a young youth, young guy.
And I was serving the senior prophet, the father of prophets, prophet angel, where he would go, I would carry his Bible. When he was preaching, I will arrange things for him to their underwear. What I'm telling you is a true story. The Lord Jesus is my witness. I'm not exaggerating this. I served genuinely.
One day as I am serving him, he says, "Guys, let's go to the store. I have to buy some things for people in Africa. When I go back, I have to go and bless a lot of people and this and this." It was always his custom that when he travels, he lives in Europe, but he was going to go and preach in Africa.
and he was buying things to bless family, spiritual children and all that. He said, "Where's the most where's a store where we can go and just pick up a lot of things?" Somebody said TJ Maxx. I had never been in a TJ Maxx. I'm being honest with you guys. So, we go into the store and he tells guys, "Get a few cuts, pick shirts, and all this. put them in there for all the people and I am there present.
He tells me get whatever you like for yourself. I froze.
I froze for 15 20 minutes. He passes me by. You still haven't gotten anything. I said, "Ah, I was I didn't know how to react because nobody has just ever taken me to get stuff except my parents." And this is years later. My parents died when I was young. No one has ever handed me anything. So, I was confused.
Is this a trick? If I take more, will he look at me crazy? I rather not take anything and not offend anybody. Do you know how he came back and he grabbed me and he said, The demons of your family are still holding you. Change your mindset. You are not where you used to be. You are in God's blessing.
And then he walked away. I said, "Okay." I picked like five shirts because you know there's this image that people want to paint that loias takes people's money. Guys, that is the craziest thing ever. Crazy. There's nothing that feels weird for me more than using people. That's why I would never use anybody for their money. For what? I rather work 10 jobs than take advantage of anybody.
[applause and music] In my book, The Posture, I think I mentioned another scenario with him. These things, these are real things. I'm I'm not ashamed of it. I went and I picked up one or two three shirts and I came. He said, "You've done better. But when I give you rain, do it. You can't dry up what I have." M
so I took that attitude and I realized that some of us may have suffered so much
that when God gives us a blank check
and says write whatever number you want. Some of you will write $20 for gas and then tomorrow you will need gas again.
Some of you will write $100 because all you needed was groceries. but next month you'll need groceries again. Some of you will put rent or mortgage, but next month you will need it again. When God gives you a blank check, understand that you can never drain God's account in Christ Jesus.
DON'T BE ASHAMED TO ASK HIM. He said, "Ask me anything."
He says, "Ask me what? anything in my name and you have it. But we now know the name is not just saying father I need I need to act like it. I need to speak like him. I need to walk like him. I need to see like him. The moment I become like that, there is nothing that will be withheld from me.
Lifting your hands to heaven. Say, "Father, I understand what sunship is."
Father,
Father, I understand what sunship is.
Father, I understand what it means to be a son.
Father, Father, I understand what it means to be a son.

Father, I want to walk as a son. I want to be in sunship. Father, today as we lift our hands before you, God. Father, we come out of every mindset of poverty, every mindset of pain, every mindset of suffering that has prevented us from being able to walk in the true inheritance of sunship. Today Lord, as our eyes have opened, Father, as you have enlightened our mind, you understand what it will obey your name, who understand what it is to carry your name, you understand what it is to have from you, God, Father, that we would posture ourselves from today as sons, any fate, Lord, any processing in our ideology that confronts and that is contrary to the sunship that you have called us into the sunship that you have raised us to. Father, today we desire to walk in true sunship.
We desire to function in true sunship.
Father, that every limiting belief, Father, every limitation we place on you, knowingly or unknowingly, God, because we did not fully accept that we were sons, we did not fully embrace that we were sons. Father, let be broken from today. We come out of every lift your voice. Let us friendship and we step into the fullness of friendship.
We step into the fullness of our identity in Christ. We step into the fullness of knowing that we are crucified in Christ. Nevertheless, believe that it is Christ that lives in us. Father, that everywhere we stand, it is by the faith of the son of God. And in him we live, in him we move, in him we have our being.
Therefore, we stand in the sunship of Jesus Christ. And everything you have given to him, Father, is given unto us. Every access that is given to us is given unto us. every blessing,
music
every authority, every promise given us God. From today, from today, we walk in the truth of sunship, Lord. Anything that makes us cower, anything that makes us doubt, anything that makes us fearful, anything that makes us shy away, Father, we know what it is that you have made available for us. We walk in the truth of the promise of God. We walk in the truth of the inheritance of Christ. We walk in the fullness of the adoption.
Father, we can call you Aba Father. The spirit bears witness with our spirit that we are sons of God. And if sons, then we are hes with Christ. We are called with Christ. We are hes of God. Father, we walk in the truth of sunship. We are joint hes with you Lord from anything that would separate us from the grace of inheritance. Father today we align back.
We agree with what you have said. We agree with who you have said we are. We agree with the place that you have possession. We agree with the favor. We agree with the blessing. We agree with the access. We agree with the authority. We agree with the power. We agree with the God that there's nothing in our mind, nothing in our language will prove otherwise that we will speak as sons of God. We will move as sons of God. We will function as sons of God. We will see as sons of God. We will think as sons of God. But nothing less sunship of today.
Every sunship of today our confession and our declaration rooted in the truth of our God. Our confession in our declaration rooted in identity rooted in sanction.
We will not beg for what is not for what you freely gave. We will not be for what you were made available. We will not be for the access you said we already have. We will not beg for the configure that we are. We will not wait for it. Father, we will beg for it.
Everything that is we call it from the north and the east, Father, we call it. every resource of heaven, every resource of the earth, every resource under the earth, mother that is surround us for the fulfillment of your purpose in our life. We call it forth now. We call it forth now. We call it now in the place of God.

Can I prophesy?
Prophesy.
Let me say something to you.
Yes.
Most people don't understand this about prophecy. Some people say prophecy doesn't need to be detailed. So some people say prophecy is the testimony of Jesus. But what is the testimony of Jesus? The testimony of Jesus is salvation. That he gave himself up to save people at all cost.
That's what it means. It uncovers brings to light what is hidden the workings of the enemy and then repentance and redemption comes into play. But if those things are not put together, how will anybody know where their problem is coming from? When the Lord Jesus addressed people, he knew where their issue was. How can we be prophets that don't know where people's problems are?
