We call leaders to remove limits, discern the Spirit’s push, and step forward when the moment arrives. From Detroit to the UN, we share how place, timing, and bold action open doors and build a transferable boldness that carries into bigger rooms.

• discerning the Spirit’s push and timing
• stepping forward beyond fear and optics
• lessons from Peter walking on water
• the power of place and positioning
• testimonies from Detroit and the UN
• boldness gained only by action
• revival vs survival as awareness
• impartation of faith for next steps

I want us all to stand. Every one of you who wishes to have an impartation of faith that you can move mountains through the Spirit of God, not through your flesh, but by the Spirit of God. God is going to give it to you today. I want you to begin to lift your voice. Receive them in Jesus’ name, hallelujah!


We love to hear from our listeners! Thank you!

SPEAKER_00:

Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. You may be seated. What an incredible week we have been experiencing in the Lord. Just to be here in Mongolia, to be here in between Russia and China to experience boots on the ground. What God is doing in this hour here is a distinct honor. And I want to give honor to our great leaders, uh, Brother and Sister Doherty, and what they are doing and the Robinettes and the incredible way God is using them and positioning them in this hour. And my bodyguard is here, Bethany, wave at us. She's home. Amen. And I've been feeling all of this out. And I've been a lot of places, and one of the things you gain, and Brother Robinet will probably notice, but one of the things you gain is a discernment for what God is doing. And I want you to know this is the beginning, Pastor, of something massive. It is going to happen. We just need to get ready. And most of my ministry has not been by my own hands. I've been mostly just going for the ride. And if you position yourself right, you can flow with the Holy Ghost, and you'll find yourself in all kinds of ministries and opportunities where God's going to do something. And so hearing Brother Ogi and that incredible word he gave, and the prophetic word that God gave, I fail to impart something to you. Um, I want you to identify when God is ready to push you into the arena. Amen. I want you just to lift your hands, Lord. Give these leaders of yours revelation and understanding for what you are going to do in their personal life. You told us you will give us sight. Give us that sight now. Help me to impart what needs to be imparted in this moment. For I feel many ministries in this room. I feel many doors opening in this room. Somebody just worship the Lord right now for what's been ready to happen. Cause I'm gonna put pour into you, and I know I'm in the Holy Ghost, because I didn't get a chance to prepare. But I want you to feel a little selfish. I give you permission to think about yourself, think about what God is going to do in your life, think about what God is going to do in your ministry, and I want you to remove all limitations off of yourself. I want you to remove all the hindrances and the insecurities and the inabilities that the devil and the flesh and friends and foes will put on you. And I want you to think in the realm of no limits. Is that fair? The realm of no limits. So there's a positioning in God that is very, very important to understand. And the positioning of God is like this when God moves, He moves in places, and I want you to understand this because being here right now is an important place. It's an important place for you. Everybody say me. I want you to think about your own ministry. You're getting ready to be poured into this week for what God is going to do in you. I remember, and I know Brother Robinette has mentioned Brother Cole because he has sat in places with him. I remember sitting in places as a young person, sitting in places trying to identify who I was under incredible leaders of God. And I was a sponge. And you're a sponge right now. You're not a sponge by accident, you're not in the places you're in by accident. God wants you to receive something for what He's getting ready to do for you. Everybody, all right? He's wanting you to receive something for the doors that are gonna happen that are catered for you. And I remember sitting at the feet of Brother Stone King in Bible Seminary when he, you know, he was a professor, and I remember being a sponge of what he was saying and doing and hoping and seeing and knowing who he was and how God has used him, and he was like this hero that was untouchable until I got to hang out with him in settings like this and found out he was very human, and he was mad and he was happy and he liked to eat and all these things. And I thought, oh my goodness, God is using ordinary people to do extraordinary things. I want you to understand that God is going to use you because you are here, you are here, and it's not by accident because He's gonna use you to do extraordinary things. Get ready for your next level. I want you to learn, and I in this impartation, how to identify a very important part of your ministry when it's time. I want you to learn how to identify the push of the Holy Ghost. A lot of people miss things because they do not have a discernment for what God is doing for them, and they miss their moments, and there is regret, and there is distance, and there is distraction because they didn't identify their push. So the revelation that I felt to tell you about was one of the revelations that Jesus showed the apostles. So, what had happened in this scenario? You remember the boat that Peter jumped out of and walked on water? You realize that what Jesus was teaching them was how to identify moments. Eleven missed it, one got it. I want you to be the one. Because let me just tell you, I'm one of the one. He's a one, he's a one. You know why? Look where we are. These are the results of being one of the one. Identifying when a door opens and stepping through that door. And if you're one that struggles like me with trying to find the facts, and and you're a thinker and you step back, you got to get rid of all that because the Holy Ghost doesn't wait on all of that because God doesn't care about statistics. God is a statistic breaker. If God, that's what a miracle is beyond statistics. So the situation went where the Lord said, Let me go up into the mountains to pray, and he sent them out into the water, and then at that late hour, the Lord walked across the water. Now, here's some very key things in that story. The Bible says he would have passed them by, but they began to cry out. First lesson just because you see it don't mean you'll receive it. You got to take advantage of it, you got to seize it. I've seen the Holy Ghost move through services, and some get it and some miss it. I've seen the Holy Ghost step around folks that weren't paying attention and grab somebody that's paying attention. Be one that pays attention, and there is no limits to what God will do in your life. So, so Jesus would have passed them by. He is teaching us how to identify moments. And the first lesson, everybody got an A plus. They all begin to cry out, and the Lord said, It's I, and that was it. Then the one said, If it is you and you're out there, what am I doing here? Oh, y'all didn't hear me. Y'all didn't hear me.

SPEAKER_04:

Y'all didn't hear me.

SPEAKER_00:

I'm fixing to tell you a couple things. Because if wherever Jesus is, there is a possibility for you to be right in the midst of what the Holy, I want to be right in the middle of what the Holy Ghost is doing. So Peter said, If it is you, bid me to come unto thee on the water. The Lord said, Come. It's that simple.

SPEAKER_04:

Yes, it is.

SPEAKER_00:

It's that simple. Not only do we need to take advantage of his passing by, but we need to take advantage of opportunities. Are you understanding the push? You got to take advantage of opportunities because the Lord may be right in front of you doing incredible things, but it doesn't mean it's gonna happen to you, but you can grab hold of it. But here's the idea if he'll do it for them, he'll do it for you. I do not have a license on doing things for God. Whatever I've done, you can do, and greater works than these can you do? So Peter stepped forward. See, the invitation came, but there had to be some stepping. There had to be some intentional stepping, there had to be some effort, there had to be some sacrifice, there had to be some stepping away from the crowd and being willing to be a spectacle, being willing to be somebody that they're pointing at, somebody that they're I got a PhD in that, somebody that they're talking about, somebody that they're laughing about, somebody that they're pronouncing gloom and doom over you. But I'm getting out of this boat. Watch me step out of this boat. Peter stepped out, and literally he stepped forward. He didn't step out, he stepped forward. He was aware of his opportunities, and everything he asked for, he received until he doubted. Then he started to sink. Let me explain something to you. We have been covered this week. God has covered us this week because if we step outside of God's covering, looking around at the situation that we're in, we can get discouraged. But I don't look outside of what the Holy Ghost is doing. I stay in. I stay, you know. You know why we had a baptism? I knew we were gonna have a baptism, I knew God was gonna do something. I said, if there are people that are hungry, then we're gonna reach them. We're not gonna look at those who don't want, we're gonna look at those who do want, we're gonna stay focused on what God is doing. So he stepped out and he was received by the Lord, and the Lord caught him. He he learned something that day, he learned something that was forever with him and was sustainable. For example, he gained a boldness that you can't get until you step forward. You can talk about boldness all you want to. Let me just explain something. I seen a lot of plastic, plastic powerhouses, but let me tell you something. When you really step out, you become somebody different. And when he stepped out, he gained something. I want you to be understanding about this because you're all going to be called to step out sooner or later. When he stepped out, he received something that was forever his. Want me to prove it to you? The book of Acts, chapter 2, verse 14. Look at this. This is the moment of moments. This is what all the Gentiles are waiting on the access for the church to open to everybody. When the day of Pentecost came, we needed somebody that'll be strong enough to step forward and proclaim it. Guess who did it? The same person with the experience of stepping forward because he was back in that limelight where everybody was staring at him, and all eyes were on the apostles. And the Bible said it like this Acts 2 14. Let me read it out of the New Living Translation. It says, Then Peter stepped forward. He knows how to step forward, he's got a resume of stepping forward. Can I tell you, you being here in Mongolia is going to translate into greater revival for your life because the places matter? Somebody clap your hands to the Lord. Everybody say step forward. Look at your neighbor and say, step forward. I've seen a lot of things. I've been in ministry many years, and I've seen things that have changed my life forever. There's things I've seen that I haven't told you. There's things I've seen that would blow your mind. But the things that are common knowledge, like Bethany and I were told, uh, you you the area in Detroit you want to start a church is discouraging. Don't go there. Nobody's had revival there. There hasn't been a UPC church ever there. Uh, you're gonna you're gonna lose your kids, you're gonna have a situation that's gonna just don't go. Well, 2,000 souls baptized later. I I lift your hands a little bit. I'm putting something in you, I'm putting boldness in you. You're getting a bit of me right now, you're getting a bit of me. Somebody say 2,000 souls later. Yes, yes, yes, yes. Now now, let me let me let me let me let me tell you something else. Let me tell you something. 2,000 souls later. So I get this call to go to the United Nations where no one has ever been. But see, when you start doing stuff that no one has ever done, God starts dumping more stuff on you that no one has ever done. My fellow brother in labor. He just starts sending you places where everybody else is not looking, and and and you know, if you got 10 talents, he gives you 10 more. I don't know why, but he does. And and so I went where nobody was gonna go because I'm used to that. I said, Well, I've seen this before. I'll go. I win. Of course, they said nobody can go, nobody should go. You're not supposed to go, it's not possible. I had some people tell me, and matter-of fact, me, they said it's not possible for you to go into the UN because that's the devil's house. Apostolics. I said, Well, listen, the devil lost the keys to his house way back at Calvin. So we went in to his house and walked into the living room and rearranged the furniture and turned what belonged to the devil into an apostolic church. It doesn't matter to God if it's the biggest point on the planet because it because all the kings are in the hands of the Lord. So, where I wasn't supposed to go, 60 plus souls baptized later, hundreds of souls in our external ministries later, reaching people in the Taliban, baptizing them in Jesus' name, not being planned on being an ambassador, but I said, I'll take it, not being planned on being a special advisor. I said, I'll take it. What am I telling you? I'm telling you that places matter and stepping forward matters, and there is no limit when you start letting God use you in areas like this. So we're we're we're in the UN and we're getting ready to have church, and we're on the 27th floor, we're gonna have a little session there, and we're walking around back and forth, and and don't put any of this on social media. We're walking around back and forth and we're praying, and I sit down and I always like to, or God forbid, that he says, Why didn't you do it? Why didn't you? Your your future relies on you stepping out of the boat when it matters, and the difference between revival and survival is awareness. That's the difference, and this is the hour of the church. Let me tell you what's going on, and we're gonna pray because I want you to receive this because you're having something for you that's gonna help you in ministry. This is the hour of the church. What's going on in our world, all the chaos and craziness going on in our world is God setting us up for success. He is destroying all sovereignties and powers and principalities, and he's causing them to battle against each other. And please don't be surprised when the world is being like the world. I don't understand what's going on with us apostolics. We get all unraveled when something happens out there, and we get why are you? You don't that's what's expected out there. What's happening in here? And the world is ready for the church, and God is right now putting us in a position where we will move forward beyond all other voices. I'll tell you what happened. This cannot go on social media because this is uh confidence. I I I want I want Brother Doherty to come and pray over us. And I want you to receive this, and I want you to be ready for anything, and I want you to understand the sky is the limit to those who will step out when it's the right time. Brother Doherty, would you impart and pray over us so that we're ready for our ministry to go to the next level?

SPEAKER_02:

I want us all to stand. This is factual. What every word he just said, even down to the point of him calling me forward. The Lord told me what was going to happen. He said, You're gonna come forward, you're gonna speak. I want the people to raise their hand, and I'm going to give to them. Every one of you who wishes to have an impartation of faith that you can move mountains through the Spirit of God, not through your flesh, but by the Spirit of God. God is going to give it to you today. I want you to begin to lift your voice. I want you to begin to see the miraculous. Open your heart and your mind in Jesus' name by the authority of the Holy Ghost, by the word of God, and the roof, oh God, the words that you have spoken that every man and woman in this room, oh God, that they may receive a superfluous impartation of faith and of your spirit, oh God, that they may walk in demonstration, that they may walk in the power of the Holy Ghost, that they may not turn away, oh Lord, with difficult situations of Christ, that they shall walk in the faith, oh God, in the name of Jesus Christ, oh Lord, hallelujah! Receive them in Jesus' name, hallelujah! Resume Jesus' name, hallelujah! Shall I look at Sottiana Kibaha? You know the Satan, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hilapasoto Yala Baha. You are not limited by the match, you won't be limited only by yourself. I wish you would step out. I want you to feel that God is speaking to you. I want you to step out of your seats and come to the front. I want you to have boldness. If you're going to be used of God, you need boldness. You've got to be determined in the Holy Ghost. Nothing is going to sway me, nothing is going to move me. I am sent by God. Even the boss of Oya. Even the post of Oyo.
