What does it truly mean to be a son of God rather than just a servant? In this powerful episode of Apostolic Mentoring, Pastor Powell from Texas delivers a kingdom-shaking message that challenges believers to step beyond servanthood into the fullness of divine sonship.
Drawing from Romans 8:19, Pastor Powell reveals how all creation eagerly awaits the manifestation of God's sons—believers who understand their true identity and authority. The distinction isn't merely semantic; it fundamentally transforms how we approach our relationship with God and our mission in the world.
Through biblical examples and personal insights, Pastor Powell unpacks three vital components of authentic sonship: submission, ownership, and favor. Submission isn't a restrictive concept but the very foundation that connects us to spiritual authority. Ownership moves us beyond waiting for instructions to recognizing needs and taking initiative. Favor encompasses the blessings and authority that come with our position as royal children.
One of the most striking revelations shared is how adopted children legally have stronger inheritance rights than natural-born children—a powerful picture of our grafted position in God's family. We aren't second-class citizens in the Kingdom but fully entitled heirs with direct access to the throne room.
This message arrives at a crucial moment for the global church. As Pastor Powell emphasizes, "Don't wait for the perfect time. The fields are already white and ready for harvest." The world doesn't belong to darkness but has been given to God's children as an inheritance—we simply need to rise up and take possession through prayer, fasting, and bold action.
Ready to stop living like a slave and start walking in the authority of sonship? This episode will equip you to lift your head high and embrace your true identity as a child of the King, positioned with purpose and empowered to transform your world.
We love to hear from our listeners! Thank you!

Ministry Updates from Europe
Speaker 1I greet you in the mighty name of Jesus from Oslo, norway. What an honor it is to be here with one of my dear friends, pastor Andrea San, and the great works that he is doing all across this nation. But Sunday we had the privilege of being in Geneva, switzerland, with another dear friend, somebody I just cherish and trust and love so much, pastor.
Speaker 2Atka.
Speaker 1Yes, that's right, in Switzerland. You added that, sister Alderette, that wasn't what I said. You did say Geneva. I said Geneva, but I didn't say Switzerland. You're like this is like the word of the Lord, don't add to or take away from. But I got to be with the Pentecostals of Geneva again, which is it just has such a special place in the heart of Sister Robinette and I and our children. We just it's been a part of our life for well decades, and to get to be back there and to lift the arms of Pastor Aka and his leadership team was just beyond a joy.
Speaker 2We have been friends for a few decades and to be with them again in this time, to raise their hands to Brother Atka and spend this magnificent time with them, is a great blessing.
Speaker 1As a matter of fact, we got to have Pastor Powell, we got to have Brother López with us. He came over to stay with me in Switzerland this week, and so Sunday, Brother López and I were together in Geneva, where God filled eight people with the Holy Ghost and five were baptized in Jesus' name.
Speaker 2And then on I believe it was Saturday we got to travel to Bern tiempo con la iglesia.
Speaker 1You guys know, apostolic mentoring couldn't happen without Sister Hackenbrook. She is behind the scenes pulling all the strings and making sure I do things right.
Speaker 2Muchos de ustedes saben que apostolía mentórica no podía pasar sin la presencia de la hermana Hackenbrook. Ella está atrás de todo esto y ella es la que nos guía a tener todo en orden.
Speaker 1I'm her puppet. She's controlling all the strings, but to be with her in the city of Bern and Sister Soraya, a great national pastor in that city y estar con la hermana Hackenberg allí en Bern y estar con la hermana Snidat en este lugar tan hermoso. We honor Sister Soraya, Sister Hackenberg and, of course, if you are not supporting Sister Hackenberg as a missionary, I want to encourage the entire global apostolic mentoring family to go online, get connected with Sister Hackenberg and help her advance the kingdom of God in the nation of Switzerland.
Speaker 2Y estamos tan agradecidos que pudimos estar con la hermana Zoraida y la hermana Hackenbrook. También les quiero decir, si usted no ha sido parte del ministerio de apoyar a la hermana Hackenbrook para ser misionera en este lugar, les pido que sean y la respalden para que ella siga propagando las buenas nuevas del Evangelio en todo el mundo.

Speaker 1But today we are just beyond excited to have as our guest Pastor Powell from the great country of Texas.
Speaker 2Estamos tan contentos en este día de poder tener a nuestro gran amigo, el Pastor Powell del gran estado de Texas. Estamos tan contentos en este día de poder tener a nuestro gran amigo, el Pastor Powell del gran estado de Texas.
Speaker 1If you're from Texas, you believe you're another country. Y si tú estás en Texas.
Speaker 2Tú crees que estás en otro país.
Speaker 1You're not a state, you are a country.
Speaker 2Tú no eres un estado, tú eres otro país.
Speaker 1But we love Brother Powell. This is a great, great man of God, a great friend of our family and a great friend of the kingdom of God. We had the privilege of being together in Ethiopia two weeks ago.
Speaker 2We had the privilege of being together in Ethiopia two weeks ago and just to spend time with Brother Powell. You guys are going to know today. It is an incredible treasure to spend time with this man of God Y pasar este tiempo tan hermoso con el hermano Paul. De verdad, ustedes se van a dar cuenta que gran tesoro es tener la compañía de él en este día.
Speaker 1His heart is for the kingdom.
Speaker 2Su corazón es para el reino.
Speaker 1And his heart is for kingdom people.
Speaker 2Y su corazón es para el pueblo del reino.
Speaker 1And when he opens his mouth, it is going to make a kingdom impact.
Speaker 2Y cuando él abre su voz, va a hacer un impacto en el reino it is going to make a kingdom impact.
Speaker 1Matter of fact, I asked him to do something during the crusade.
Speaker 2That was a large task in a very poor nation. I asked him to preach on sacrifice, giving tithing to the Ethiopian people.
Speaker 1And oh my goodness, as this man of God began to preach to them and the spirit of giving got a hold of that nation.
Speaker 2they took the largest offering they'd taken in 23 years Y cuando el hermano empezó a predicar, el espíritu de Dios empezó a moverse y la congregación totalmente tomaron esta carga y empezaron a ofrecer todo lo que tenían.
Speaker 1Fue una ofrenda que message instigated in, that body Gave birth to over 668 people being filled with the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Speaker 2Con más de 660 personas que fueron llenas del London Espíritu Santo, with 668 people being filled with the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Speaker 1So I honor this man of God. We are so humbled to have him today on Apostolic Mentoring.
Speaker 2And we want him to take his liberty. Praise the Lord Apostolic Mentoring Te doy, gracias a Dios que le está con nosotros. Por favor, hermano, tome su libertad.
Speaker 3Praise the Lord, Apostolic Mentoring.
Speaker 2Gloria a Dios, Apostolia Mentorica.
Speaker 3What an honor it is to be on this great podcast.
Speaker 2Qué gran honor es estar con ustedes aquí en este día.
Speaker 3I am humbled by those words. I'm not worthy of that.
Speaker 2All glory to God.
Speaker 3Amen. Thank you for welcoming me. I feel, the presence of God and I feel the camaraderie in this group already. I mean, I love Brother Robinette, love his family, love everything about this man. I want to read a scripture to us today.
Speaker 2Go ahead.
Introduction of Pastor Powell
Speaker 3Romans, chapter 8, verse 19. The scripture says for the earnest expectation of the creature, waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
Speaker 2You said chapter 8. What is the?
Speaker 3verse Romans, chapter 8, verse 19.
Speaker 2Okay, romanos, capítulo 8, verso 19. Y dice la escritura de esta manera 8, verse 19. And the scripture says in this way because the burning desire of creation is to await the manifestation of the children of God.
Speaker 3The scripture is saying that even creation itself is yearning, it is groaning for the manifestation of the sons of God.
Speaker 2The scripture tells us at this moment that even the earth nature groaning for the manifestation of the sons of God. What I want to talk to us today about is sonship. Quiero hablarles a ustedes en este día. Es acerca de hablar lo que es ser un hijo de Dios.
Speaker 3Specifically sonship, as it applies in the kingdom of God.
Speaker 2Así específicamente acerca de los hijos, como aplica en el reino de Dios.
Speaker 3Let me build a foundation for this for you today.
Speaker 2Déjame poder hacer una fundación para ti en este día. Build a foundation for this for you today.
Speaker 3John, chapter 15, jesus talks about us becoming the sons of God. He says I will no longer call you servants. Galatians, chapter 4 and verse 7. The Apostle Paul said wherefore thou art no more a servant.
Speaker 2But a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ. The Apostle John said in John, chapter 1, that he came to his own, but his own received him not but as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, that is our calling, saints of the living God. Pero aquellos que le han recibido a ellos, los ha hecho hijos de Dios.
Speaker 3That is our calling saints of the living God.
Speaker 2Ese es nuestro llamado hijos del Dios viviente.
Speaker 3To become sons of God.
Speaker 2De ser hijos de Dios.
Speaker 3We are not meant to be servants, not meant to be slaves not meant to be servants not meant to be slaves, but sons.
Speaker 2I want to highlight the differences, just for a few moments, between slavery and sonship.
Speaker 3Think with me, if you can.
Speaker 2Use your imagination and think of an ancient kingdom.
Speaker 3There's only one king in the kingdom. There's only one king in the kingdom, there's only one throne in a kingdom and one that sits on that throne. But the king has sons that operate within his kingdom. He also has servants we would call them slaves that all operate at his bidding. But the difference in slaves and sons is all about relationship.
Speaker 2Pero la diferencia entre lo que es los hijos y los esclavos o los siervos tiene que ver con la relación.
Speaker 3If we are not careful, we can't operate in the kingdom of God in this mentality of slavery in this mentality of slavery.
Speaker 2We see this come out even in our churches. It is a mentality of what do I have to do? What is the bare minimum I have to do? What can I get away with and still make heaven?
Speaker 3That is the mentality of slavery. I will do what he tells me and nothing more. I will do what the king commands, but nothing else.
Speaker 2I will do what the king commands, but nothing else. Yo voy a hacer lo que el reino me comanda, pero nada más.
Speaker 3The attitude, the mindset of a son is completely different.
Speaker 2La mentalidad de un hijo es completamente diferente.
Speaker 3A son serves because of love and because of passion.
Speaker 2Un hijo sirve por el amor y por la pasión.
Speaker 3A son serves, just like a servant or a slave serves.
Speaker 2Un hijo sirve tal vez como un siervo o como un esclavo.
Speaker 3But it is from a completely different place.
Speaker 2Pero completamente en una perspectiva diferente.
Speaker 3A son has the ear of the king.
Speaker 2El hijo tiene el oído del rey.
Speaker 3A son gets to go in and out of the throne room at will.
Speaker 2El hijo puede ir y entrar de salir del trono.
Speaker 3The son knows the plans and the thoughts of the king. El hijo conoce los pensamientos y las maneras del rey. The son knows the plans and the thoughts of the king.
Speaker 2Apostolic mentoring this is what God is calling his church to become.
Speaker 3His hands and his feet, his operators in the kingdom of God, that we would take up the will of God and we would take it on ourself and begin to operate on his and with his authority.
Speaker 2I want to talk about three different aspects of sonship today. You see, because sonship is really all about alignment. I've got to be aligned with my father.
Speaker 3You can be a son and be in rebellion.
Sonship: God's Call to His Church
Speaker 2Or you can be a son and be in complete alignment, as Jesus gave us the prime example in his prayer Matthew, chapter 6. He said our Father, which art in heaven? This is about alignment.
Speaker 3This makes him right out the gate my headship Positioning myself under. Him as a son.
Speaker 2Posicionándome yo mismo como un hijo delante de Él.
Speaker 3So three aspects that I would like to talk to us in sonship are submission and ownership and favor.
Speaker 2What was the third?
Speaker 3one Favor. A true son, a genuine son, will be submitted to the Father. A true son will be submitted to the Word of God to the word of. God will be submitted to the will of God and will be submitted to the man of God. Submission is a key component of sonship.
Speaker 2Submission is not a dirty word in the kingdom of God.
Speaker 3So many people hear the word submission and they cringe.
Speaker 2But submission is about power operating in the kingdom of God quiere decir poder que está siendo suelto en el reino de Dios.
Speaker 3Ephesians, chapter 5, tells us that we are to be submitted one to another.
Speaker 2En Efesios 5 nos dice que debemos de estar sometidos uno al otro.
Speaker 3James, chapter 4 tells us that we are to be submitted to God, y Santiago 4 también nos habla que nosotros debemos de estar sometidos a Dios to be submitted to God. Hebrews chapter 13 tells us that we are to obey them that have rule over us.
Speaker 2Y en Hebreos 13 nos habla que nosotros debemos someternos a aquellos que tienen autoridad sobre nosotros.
Speaker 3To submit ourselves to those that keep watch over our souls, those that give account for us. This is why, church, it is so important for us to have spiritual authority in our lives. I am a pastor.
Speaker 2I pastor a church in New Waverly, texas, but I also have a pastor and I am a big proponent of having a pastor in your life, no matter what. Having someone that can give an account for you will always benefit your own spiritual life. I've heard it said like this If you don't have someone that can tell you no, you don't really have a pastor.
Speaker 3You can call somebody pastor, but unless they can correct you and align you, they're not really your pastor.
Speaker 2A true, son is not really your pastor, pero a menos que ellos puedan hablarte y corregirte y alinearte, entonces no tienes pastor.
Speaker 3A true son is submitted to the authority of God.
Speaker 2Un verdadero hijo está sometido bajo la autoridad de Dios. Those that can say you're messing up, you're doing wrong you need to get back to the straight and narrow path. The Apostle Paul said follow me as I follow Christ. El Apóstol Pablo dijo sígueme a mí así como yo sigo a Jesucristo.
Speaker 3Being in and operating under submission gives us spiritual authority. As sons, I feel like. As the church, we must often remind ourselves that we live in a kingdom.
Speaker 2Nosotros, como hijo, constantemente tenemos que ser recordados que vivimos en un reino.
Speaker 3The kingdom of God has one king and one throne.
Speaker 2El reino de Dios tiene un rey y un trono.
Servants vs Sons: Understanding the Difference
Speaker 3But God operates in order and in decorum. I hate to be the bearer of bad news this morning, but we are not all equal in the kingdom.
Speaker 2No quiero ser el que trae las malas noticias, pero les quiero decir que todos no somos y operamos en el mismo nivel En el reino.
Speaker 3We are all equal in opportunity.
Speaker 2Todos somos iguales en la oportunidad.
Speaker 3But we are not all equal in position and authority.
Speaker 2Pero no todos estamos igual en posición y autoridad.
Speaker 3Let me give you an example of this.
Speaker 2Déjame darte un ejemplo de esto.
Speaker 3Jesus had 70 ministers that he sent out that operated under him.
Speaker 2El Señor Jesús tenía 70 ministros que él mandaba que operaban bajo su autoridad.
Speaker 3But he also had 12 disciples that he surrounded himself with.
Speaker 2Pero también tenía 12 discípulos que estaban alrededor de él, but he also had 12 disciples that he surrounded himself with. And of those 12, he had three that were his inner circle. This is just an example of the rank and file in the kingdom of God. Esto es un ejemplo de los rangos de cómo operan el reino de Dios.
Speaker 3The story of the talents, where Jesus said the kingdom of heaven is like.
Speaker 2Igualmente como la historia de los talentos, donde habla que el reino de Dios es tal cual es.
Speaker 3The master brought his servants together, gave one servant five talents.
Speaker 2El maestro trajo a sus empleados y le dio a uno varios talentos.
Speaker 3He gave another two and he gave another one.
Speaker 2A otro le dio dos y al otro le dio un talento. Wait a minute, that's not fair Y tú piensas un momento eso. No, es fair. Why did I get one and he got five?
Speaker 3The kingdom of God is not the kingdom of man. The kingdom of man would make all equal.
Speaker 2El reino de los hombres puede hacer todo igual.
Speaker 3But the kingdom of God divides according to our several ability.
Speaker 2El reino de Dios divide de acuerdo a los talentos individuales.
Speaker 3I don't need to worry myself about who's in front of me or who's behind me.
Speaker 2Yo no tengo que preocuparme quién está enfrente de mí o quién está atrás de mí.
Speaker 3I must begin to operate as the centurion that Jesus met of great faith.
Speaker 2Yo tengo que empezar a operar como el centurión, que tenía gran fe.
Speaker 3He said, lord, I'm in authority of great faith. He said, lord, I'm in authority but I'm under authority. Submission and sonship is what links us to those ahead and behind in the kingdom of God.
Speaker 2Estar sometidos es lo que nos da una línea donde podemos estar al frente y de los que están atrás.
Speaker 3When we are operating in a perfect submission. Cuando nosotros estamos operando en una sumisión perfecta we are covered and protected because we are linked together.
Speaker 2Estamos completamente protegidos porque estamos en una línea completamente alineados.
Speaker 3Now, rebellion is the perfect antithesis of submission.
Speaker 2Ahora, la rebelión es lo cual es completamente lo opuesto Rebellion is human nature of submission. Rebellion is human nature. Rebellion is I will not have anyone over me.
Speaker 3I will be my own king.
Speaker 2I will be my own king. I will be my own leader. We see this perfectly illustrated in the parable of the prodigal sons. One, the younger son, came to his father and said give me everything.
Speaker 3I don't want to serve in your household.
Speaker 2I don't want to serve in your home. The father gives him and, of course, we all know the story.
Speaker 3He takes and squanders all that he has living in rebellion.
Speaker 2Y este muchacho se va y gasta, malgasta todo viviendo en rebelión.
Speaker 3By the grace of God, he comes home, having come to his senses.
Speaker 2Por la gracia de Dios, regresa a su hogar cuando recobra sus sentidos.
Speaker 3He says I'm just going to be satisfied to be a slave in my father's household. But the father says, no, not a slave, a son. Go get a cloak, Go get the signet ring.
Speaker 2Go get a cloak.
Speaker 3Go get the signet ring.
Speaker 2Kill the fatted calf. My son has returned. But, we see the elder brother out in the field throwing a pity party, pero vemos al hermano mayor allá en el campo enojado, molesto.
Speaker 3He says to the father I've been faithful all these years.
Speaker 2Y le dice al padre yo he sido fiel todos estos años.
Speaker 3But I've never had a feast, I've never had a party.
Speaker 2Pero yo nunca me has hecho una comida, nunca he tenido una fiesta.
Speaker 3And notice what the father says to the eldest son.
Speaker 2Y mira lo que el padre le dijo al hijo mayor.
Speaker 3He says all that I have is thine.
Speaker 2Dice todo lo que tengo es tuyo.
Speaker 3It was already yours to begin with.
Speaker 2Ha sido tuyo siempre.
Speaker 3para empezar, Both sons in this story have been out of the will of God. This leads us directly into our next point, and that is ownership.
Speaker 2You see the eldest son. Eso nos lleva al siguiente punto, que es donde nosotros pertenecemos.
Speaker 3You see, the eldest son was submitted to the father but never took ownership.
Speaker 2El hijo mayor estaba sometido al padre, pero nunca posesionó lo que el padre tenía para él. Yes, we must be submitted to the word of God, the will of God and the man of God, but we also must walk in ownership of the kingdom of God. Slaves wait to do what they're told to do, but a son sees the need and acts accordingly. A true son will always work harder than a servant or a slave. Because he has ownership in the kingdom of God. He has skin in the game.
Submission as Kingdom Power
Speaker 3I feel like the Lord wants that for his church globally wants that for his church globally.
Speaker 2So long church we have operated in submission under God, but now it is the time for us to step into ownership.
Speaker 3To walk in the authority of God.
Speaker 2To carry out.
Speaker 3His plan.
Speaker 2This is the will of God for this church in this last day that we begin to do the will of the. Father To be about our Father's business, to have the attitude of Caleb, give me this mountain.
Speaker 3I've already got the deed.
Speaker 2I've already got the promise. Now I've got to go and possess the land. I've got to be the boots on the ground. It's time church family to take ownership of our household to take ownership of our neighborhood to take ownership of our city. The scripture says the gates of hell shall not prevail.
Speaker 3But the gates are sure and steadfast when.
Speaker 2I'm not pushing against them. Sure and steadfast, when I'm not pushing against them. When I'm not doing the work, the gates are just fine. When I'm not taking authority and dominion, in my city the strong man has the rule. As sons of God, we walk in the authority of the Most High. The same promise applies to the kingdom of God today. Everywhere your foot treads, I will give you dominion. But I've got to start walking.
Speaker 3I've got to put action to the promise. I know what my father wants. Done he doesn't even have to tell me to do it. I'm submitted to the father. I'm walking in authority of the Father, so I can now go out and do the will of the Father. You know, too often we sit around waiting for it to fall in our lap too often we sit around waiting for it to fall in our lap.
Speaker 2We pray, oh Lord, open the door, but we've already been given the keys to the door.
Speaker 3So many times I feel like God is just saying open the door yourself.
Speaker 2Muchas veces pienso que el Señor está diciendo abre la puerta por ti mismo.
Speaker 3You've been given the keys of prayer and fasting, study and faith.
Speaker 2Se te han dado las llaves de ayunar y orar y que puedas estudiar.
Speaker 3Put your spiritual boots on and go and take your city. Have a prayer meeting, call a fast, operate in faith, go ye, therefore, into all the world. The world is ours, church, it is not the devil's, it is not culture or society. It is ours for the taking, but I have got to operate in ownership in order to take it. James said we've got to be doers of the word and not just hearers. If there's one thing I feel like the Lord is wanting to speak to his church globally, it's this.
Speaker 2Don't wait for the perfect time que el Señor le quiere hablar a su iglesia globalmente.
Speaker 3It's this. Don't wait for the perfect time.
Speaker 2No esperes el tiempo perfecto Go now. Ve ahora.
Speaker 3Go now.
Speaker 2Ve ahora. Don't think it's one month, three months or four months for now. No pienses que es en un mes, en dos meses o tres meses de ahora.
Speaker 3The fields are already white and ready for now. The fields are already white and ready for harvest. Walk in submission, walk in ownership. And that will bring you into the favor of God.
Speaker 2The last.
Speaker 3Thing that I want to talk about this morning is the favor of God. The last thing that I want to talk about this morning is the favor of God, the favor of sonship, the son of the king. Let me tell somebody gets to walk in the favor of the king let me tell somebody gets to walk in the favor of the king.
Speaker 3You don't have to act like a slave. You don't have to live like a slave. You can live like a son of the Most High God. It is time for the church to arise and step into the favor of God. Let me remind somebody this morning. We are blessed people. This is a blessed life. This is the best life that you could ever choose to live, and the Father loves to bless his children. In fact, jesus talks about this in Matthew, chapter 7. When he says, if you being good fathers, if your son asks a fish, will you give him a rock, and if you're evil and know how to give good gifts to your son, how much more?
Speaker 2How much more does your Father in Heaven want to give good gifts to His children that ask? How much more does your Father in Heaven want to give good gifts to His children that ask?
Speaker 3Psalms, chapter 5 says His favor surrounds us like a shield. Proverbs, chapter 10 says the blessings of the Lord maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.
Speaker 2Y que no agrega ningún sufrimiento a eso.
Speaker 3Deuteronomy, chapter 28.
Speaker 2En Deuteronomy, chapter 28.
Speaker 3In fact, let's turn there and read this.
Speaker 2Y vamos a ir allí y leer este capítulo.
Taking Ownership in God's Kingdom
Speaker 3Deuteronomy, chapter 28, says and it shall come to pass if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God to observe and to do all his commandments, which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all the nations of earth.
Speaker 2Y se aconteció que si oyeres atentamente la voz de Jehová, tu Dios, para guardar y poner por obra todos sus mandamientos, que yo te prescribo hoy también, jehová, tu Dios, te exaltará sobre todas las naciones de la tierra.
Speaker 3And all these blessings shall come upon thee and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord, thy God. Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field.
Speaker 2Bendito serás tú en la ciudad ciudad y bendito tú en el campo.
Speaker 3Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle and the increase of thy kind and the flocks of thy sheep.
Speaker 2Bendito el fruto de tu vientre, el fruto de tu tierra, el fruto de tus bestias, la cría de tus vacas y los rebaños de tus ovejas.
Speaker 3Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store.
Speaker 2Benditas serán tus canastas y tus arcenas de amasar.
Speaker 3Blessed shall thou be when thou comest in and when thou goest out.
Speaker 2Bendito serás en tu entrar y bendito en tu salir.
Speaker 3We are called and can operate in a favor everywhere we go. As the sons and daughters of God, as the children of the king, we are to operate in favor.
Speaker 2Some blessings are seen and some blessings are not seen. I'm a firm believer in blessings that we don't even know about.
Speaker 3The things that God keeps us from, the dangers and the pitfalls that we don't even know God has kept us out of.
Speaker 2God has kept us out of.
Speaker 3It is the will of God for the people of God to walk in his favor. It doesn't mean we don't have problems. It doesn't mean we don't have trials and tribulations.
Speaker 2Eso no quiere decir que no tenemos tribulaciones ni preocupaciones.
Speaker 3But we can be an overcomer through it all.
Speaker 2Pero podemos ser victoriosos sobre todo ello.
Speaker 3Because we are a son of the Most High God.
Speaker 2Porque somos hijos de Dios Altísimo.
Speaker 3We are the adopted sons of God. You know one thing about adoption that is so great is that adopted sons inherit first. We are those that have been grafted in. I have two adopted children and one thing the lawyer told my wife and I when we adopted, he said that if you ever have any other children, he said I want you to know that your adopted children have a stronger legal claim to your inheritance.
Speaker 2Pero decirles que sus hijos que son adoptados tienen derecho a clamar primero que sus hijos naturales. He said even if you have natural born children, they will not have a stronger claim than your adopted son and daughter. Aun que ustedes tengan hijos biológicos naturales, no van a tener tanto más fuerza que sus hijos adoptados para clamar herencia de ustedes.
Speaker 3Church that is us. We cry Abba, Father, because of the spirit of adoption. He has chosen us. We don't have to live as second-rate citizens. We don't have to walk around thinking we're not worthy. God has placed each and every one of us in his kingdom To operate on his behalf. I just want to encourage someone right now Lift your head high, live as a son and a daughter of a king. You are a blessed generation. Step into sonship today, step into submission. Step into submission, step into ownership and walk in the favor of the Most High God. You are planted, you are positioned to reach your world. Now it's only up to us to go and take it. The scripture says the kingdom of God suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force. I choose today to walk in sonship and I encourage each one of you to do the same.
Speaker 2Amen.
Speaker 3Why don't we just lift our hands and begin to thank God right now for his word? Lord, I pray that you would minister upon us today. Lord I pray that you would speak to each one of us this morning. Allow us, oh God, to operate in submission and ownership and favor, In the name of the Lord Jesus we pray. Thank you, righteous God, for all that you've done. Thank you, Lord, for your mercy. Amen, amen, amen, Amen, amen amen, amen, amen, aleluya.
Speaker 1Aleluya, praise the Lord. What a great kingdom apostolic word today.
Speaker 2Que gran palabra apostólica hemos recibido en esta mañana.
Walking in the Favor of God
Speaker 1The spirit of revelation and the spirit of truth is coming forth in this meeting today. The spirit of revelation and the spirit of truth is breaking the back of the spirit of deception.

Speaker 2I am so just. My heart is leaping inside right now. Yo estoy completamente que mi corazón está latiendo dentro de mí.
Speaker 1I had never heard that statement that an adopted child has more rights than a natural born child.
Speaker 2Nunca había oído esa declaración que un hijo que es adoptivo tiene más prevalencia que los hijos naturales.
Speaker 1Their legal standing has a higher place.
Speaker 2Que su parado legal tiene una capacidad más alta que los hijos naturales because we were chosen, selected, grafted into this body.
Speaker 1Friends, we are special to the king and we have a future that is powerful, filled with favor and ownership.
Speaker 2Y tenemos un futuro que está lleno de la unción de Dios y ser hijos de Dios.
