Hi friends, welcome to Matthew 4.4. I'm your host Winifer. Today we're talking about when we're under attack. I want to start with Leviticus chapter 19. It says in verse 11 and 12. You shall not steal, you shall not lie or speak falsely to one another. You shall not swear falsely by my name. Thus profaning the name of your guy. I am the Lord. You know, he already let us know not to be swearing by his name. There's some people still bold enough to do it. And then go back and say, oops, Lord, forgive me for that little glitch. He's clearly telling us we cannot do that.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

Okay. There are some people that we have come in contact with that they will take pictures of you, get your name, date of birth, whatever, your address, whatever, and they will take it to people such as this here to try to cause you harm. Because the devil has literally shown them what your future looks like. And if it is prosperous and there's a pile of gold for some money, they want that. If your ministry is gonna be off the Richter scale, where it's like overcrowded, it defies all eyes. Multiple people are coming to hear what the word of God is, what he's saying through you. They want that because they cannot fathom the reason behind why is God doing that? They don't think anything other than the devil is doing it. Seriously, this is not made up because the devil actually is the one who has allowed them to peek into your future or my future. They've done it to me. And see what it is, even if you have not even obtained it, they want it. They think it's theirs, they're entitled to it because of the life that they have lived in their eyes. They see themselves as righteous. And they should. But self-righteousness is a sin. All right, Leviticus chapter 20, verse 26 and 27. 27 says, To me, therefore, you shall be sacred, for I the Lord am sacred. I who have set you apart from the other nations to be my own. He set us apart. You got other sisters and brothers in Christ, he has set apart. Some of them, if you walk, take a walk through the Bible, where he has distanced himself because of their many sinful acts and their refusal to change through repentance. Verse 27 goes on to say, a man or a woman who acts as a medium or fortune teller shall be put to death by stoning. They have no one but themselves to blame for their death. People still do that. The psychic readings, they gig do stuff to try to do voodoo vexes, hexes, what have you. You know, the word of God stands. We don't do those things. Let's go over to Chronicles chapter 19, verses one to five. Because the if they can't dig up anything in your past, God won't show them anything in your past, won't allow the devil to come through and create something, you know, because he's allowing it, God is allowing them to see this. But if they don't see anything in your past except for, oh, God's hand's always been over them, God's been covering them, listen to this. They will try to cause you great shame. 1 Chronicles chapter 19, verse 1 through 5, especially when they're in around like the company that they keep, and they will listen to those people because some people just don't think you could just be that nice, that kind, that God really showed up inside of you. They're always suspect. All right. First Chronicles chapter 19, verse 1 through 5. Afterward Naash, king of the Ammonites, died and his son succeeded him as king. David said, I will show kindness to Nahan, the son of Nahash, for his father treated me with kindness. Therefore he sent envoys to him to comfort him over the death of his father. But when David's servants had entered the land of the Ammonites to comfort Nahan, the Ammonites princes said to Hanan, Do you think David is doing this, sending these counselors to honor your father? Have not his servants rather come to you to explore the land, spying it out for its overthrow? Therefore Hanan seized David's servants and had them shaved, and their garments cut off halfway at the hips. Then he sent them away. When David was informed of what had happened to his men, he sent messengers to meet them, for the men had been greatly disgraced. Remain at Jericho, the king told them, until your beards have grown again, and then you may come back here. Like I said, they will cause you great shame and they don't realize some of us have gone through the point of God has delivered us from that and we no longer carry shame. Jesus carries that for us. You know, my history, my mother was accused of having a sexual escapade with her father. Her mother said that she had a child for her father. So I don't understand any other way that she could have done that, had a child with her father, and not have had to lay with him. Now, this caused my mom great shame. She lost her mind, also. Mental illness came rolling through. I mean, she was just completely out of it. But there was preacher, a woman ministering back during those times. Oh, it was taboo for women to be ministering. But this woman here, and I don't have any rights on anything of hers, but God, I gotta just say her name, Katherine Coleman. My mom was working at a nursing facility, and she was in the library on her break, and she came across some of Mrs. Catherine Coleman's greatest teachings, her writings about the power of God. And God used books that she had, and they allowed her to check them out, you know, and some of them they gave to her. And she would come home and she would read them, and I began to see a change in her. She wasn't completely whole, but she wasn't as bad as what she was when she was first told that news. Seriously, of what her mom said. And I just remember her saying, Mother, why? You know, but anyhow, that's a history on some things that happened to me. And I'm the only child that my mom has. So for her to have had a child with her father, and poor woman only had one child, her body was weak. She couldn't carry children like that without miscarry. And I was the first one and the only one that she had on this planet. Not only that, because of her wanting the she desired the love and affection of her mother, I shared information with my mom, where I was I had a boyfriend. I was pregnant with my child, and I went for my OBGYN checkup, and they used to like really enjoy when I come because we have a good laugh and everything, laughter and just fun. And I remember this one time I came in and they were so sad. I'm like, what's going on? And she said the lab results show that I had chlamydia and I was pregnant. So immediately what they did is they gave me two pills. I was just like, I didn't have embarrassment. I was so hurt because I really loved and cared for him. But that's a consequence for having sex out of wedlock. And then to have sex with him. I remember I'm like, I wasn't having sex with him, and he came over, and I did, and the condom broke. And he never before, we never used condoms, but he wanted to use the condom on that particular time. That means he knew he had something and he made an effort to try to protect me. But long story short, shame is something the enemy will try to throw your way. I confided in my mother and I told her this. And that was just something that she ran off with, and she told her entire family that I had an STD. But evidently, the STD, I don't know what she told him that I have, whatever the STD was, it was something that I would never get rid of. Therefore, that caused, oh my goodness. It was being said behind my back, but I didn't know. And I broke up with him because I'm like, I can't trust you. You sought another person and he wanted to be married, and so I'm like, I can't do that. You know, I did the best I could and went on and raised my child. And I'm like, as I grew older, that's when I realized hey, this person and my mom, she said something. God revealed it to me, that she told her family that I had something, and evidently in their discussions with one another, because I heard a cousin, her niece, was saying, whatever she has, she's not passing it to her children. That's that's not something good. I was shocked, and I remember how her mother was looking at me like, you poor pitiful thing. I'm serious. But anyhow, they will try to cause you great shame, but God didn't allow me to walk in that shame. The one who walked in the shame was my mother, because what did God will do? He'll let the devil pump them up because she desired a meaningful relationship with her mom. Instead of her handing over whatever her mom said about her to God and letting him deal with her, her mother, and fix their relationship, she lost the relationship that she had with me. Because I was the symbolism of something her mom did not like. In her mother's mind, she had a child with her father, and evidence of she was dead. My mom was dead for about I don't know, I'd say maybe a good 10 years or close to it. And her, we went to visit her mom, me and my children. I didn't want to be bothered with her nieces, her nieces, her nephews, her grandchildren. I don't want to be bothered with them. This one passed away not long ago, and she tried to kill me. And God moved her. So she won't try to do that anymore because she's gone. And I'm not celebrating that. No, I'm not. And she whispered in my ear. I sat on an Ottoman in front of her, and she whispered over in my ear. She used to call me Dixie, she would call me Winifer sometimes, but she said, Dixie, your mama had a baby with her father. She whispered that to me. And I was just like, I it didn't dawn on me because I actually knew her as a liar. You know, I really did. There were times when she said that she had two babies that were buried in her backyard. I don't know if people used to do stuff like that years ago. It's a possibility, but I didn't know anything about it, and nothing was ever confessed, okay, to me. But those were things that were meant by the enemy to tear me down, and I'm revealing them to different ones because you don't know me. I like that, and through my podcasts, I'm able to speak about stuff like this because truly I believe there are other people that are suffering, and it's important that they know that there is a God that cares, He's the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Seriously, Jesus came through the bloodline of David, he came through that. That's his relative. And through Paul, when Jesus got up on that tree, through Paul, he met him going to Damascus because Paul was on a mission to destroy, because it was a new movement of Jesus, and he blinded him, and he sent a man, Ananias, to come and remove that blindness from him. Therefore, he aborted that mission for massacring, no telling how many people would have died. And he used that very vessel, that mass murderer, he used him to teach the Gentiles as well as other Jewish people, people that wanted to know about that man named Jesus, who was teaching about his father and all his goodness, his love, and his peace, and how he truly had his arms open for people like you and me. So they will try to bring you shame also, and your scripture tells you that. Chronicles chapter 19, verse 1 through 5. Now, verse 6 tells us realizational set in. Yes, it is, when the Ammonites realized that they had put themselves in bad order with David, Hathan and the Ammonites sent a thousand talents of silver to hire chariots and horsemen from Aram, Armin, Naharim, and Aramaka and from Zoba. Listen, people, the very ones that tried to cause me shame. My mom, when she passed away, there was a lot of shame around her. She was very embarrassed from that. But this isn't about her, it's for deliverance because I have been delivered and set free. I've never walked in that shame. I've always seemed like I was a spectator, not to the fact where I was hurling insults and saying things. I've always looked and listened. I observed what was being said and what was going on. You know, people were always wanting you to, after they're saying that about her, yes, you want her to forgive and to let it go. Some things you can't forget. You gotta remember some of this stuff, you know. You have to, so that you don't repeat it. It's important that you don't repeat what you're seeing the enemy doing, okay? Now, I don't understand how some ministries, yes, God wants us, and I ain't trying to understand either, but God wants us to forgive so that we can be forgiven. But if you are constantly pushing me down, got your foot on my neck at all times, only letting up when you feel convicted by God, and then you come back and say, you know, I'm sorry. You're letting me know, you put me on the spot, you better forgive me, or else you're going to hell.

SPEAKER_01

Where is the person going who's causing all the drama? They never ever apologize.

SPEAKER_00

It's just your duty to apologize to me because you lashed out at me because I was doing something God revealed to me. How do you know God revealed something like that to you about me? How come he can't reveal something to me about you? And yes, it's important to forgive. It is important to get their foot off of your neck, also. Don't allow people to control you like that. All right, verse 8, and this is how you get them off. 1 Chronicles chapter 9, verse 8. Let me tell you, when David heard of this, he sent Joab and his whole army of warriors against them. Heaven's army comes to fight for you. And when heaven's army comes to fight for you, there are changes being made. Some of them can't even believe God is helping you. And when they're not accustomed to hearing from God, I want to tell you, because there's a scripture that tells us, you know, when some people are not accustomed to hearing what the Lord has to say. And it's just something unusual, and they are just like, oh, I don't hear this. This can't be. God is not saying this. Can you believe what they're saying? Yeah, some people are just not able to. Hear from God. So they don't know when they are hearing God say, stop. That's my servant Winifer. Or that's my servant, whomever you are. 1 Samuel chapter 3, verse 1 tells us during the time young Samuel was ministered to the Lord under Eli, a revelation of the Lord was uncommon and visions infrequent. This also occurs in ministries today. And if you want to know the reason why is there's too much evil and wickedness, you know, and God has clearly taken his spirit up out of those ministries. Therefore, they cannot hear from the word from God what he is saying. It's blocked. It is. And some of them will seek mediums. They will. They'll even seek the dead to come and assist them in different situations to help them. And that's just not cool. Okay. So remember, it's important that we understand that no, you can't just do whatever you want. And if God has clearly taken his spirit up and he has decided to anoint another to do something that he might have told you you were going to do, that means your assignment has been aborted. You have no one to blame except yourself. And that goes for me as well. If I'm doing something that's inappropriate and he decides I'm pulling my spirit back from her, she's not someone that I want to use because it would not be in the best interest of the people that I'm trying to set free from the bondage that they are in. So remember, 1 Chronicles chapter 19, verse 8 lets us know heaven's army comes to fight for us. Now, verse 13 lets us know this. Hold steadfast and let us show ourselves courageous for the sake of our people and the cities of our God. Then may the Lord do what seems best to him. We said, Let the Lord do what seems best to him. Some people are not willing to listen to what you're saying when you're trying to tell them God said this, God said that. He is, and he's gonna deliver you. Evidence of verse 14, 15, same chapter 19. Joab therefore advanced with his men to engage the armenes in battle, but they fled before him. Your enemy will leave, he will remove them. Verse 15 goes on to say, and when the Ammonites saw that the Armenes had fled, they also took to flight before his brother. Abishai and re-entered the city. Joab then returned to Jerusalem. Let me tell you. Stand up to your enemies and watch them turn. They're gonna flee. They'll leave you alone. Don't, no matter what wiles, they allow the devil to use them to try to cast against you, to try to make you fold, to try to make you do what they want you to do. Don't. And this is how you do that, because it can be troubling because you're thinking, sometimes I know with me, I've thought, gosh, these are my sisters and brothers of Christ. I can't do this, I can't do that. Gently. Some of them are so jealous of each other's ministries, it's unfathomable. We're not talking about that right now, but Ephesians 6, verse 14 through 17 will tell us this. Finally, draw your strength from the Lord and from his mighty power. Put on the armor of God so that you may be able to stand firm against the tactics of the devil. For our struggle is not with flesh and blood, but with the principalities, with the powers, with the world rulers of this present darkness, with the evil spirits in the heavens. Yeah. Therefore, put on the armor of God that you may be able to resist on the evil day and having done everything to hold your ground. Do you understand? Stand strong. This is where your strength comes from God. You don't want the enemy to think that he can continue to overpower you because he cannot. Verse 14 says, So stand fast with your loins girded in truth, clothed with righteousness as a breastplate, and your feet shod in readiness for the gospel of peace. In all circumstances, hold faith as a shield to quench all the flaming arrows of the evil one. And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the spirit, which is the word of God. That is how we resist the devil. And when you have gone through everything, God wants to take you through. Because, see, what He's doing is strengthening you, building you, letting you know, listen to me. I don't care how many over here is in a huddle, they're on their team. But when you on team Jesus, you got to listen to what the Lord is saying to you. I'm not saying that you don't listen to what man will say to you, because there's times when before he lifts his spirit up, they he will send different ones to talk to you, to tell you what you need to know. Or he will also send them to validate, yes, you are on the right path. This is whatever it is he wants you to know. Because some of us he has had to literally separate us from others because the abuse in the spirit is atrocious. The way people will abuse you in the spirit, and they are saved, born again. And remember what he said, he ain't gonna have less than Satan. He'll turn rocks into spirits.

SPEAKER_01

He will.

SPEAKER_00

Stay out of my zone, stay out of her zone, just stay in your own lane. If your lust is taking you to the point where you are touching someone in the spirit, some of you are growing up and you are going to be given these spiritual gifts that are not yours, they belong to God. Don't let anybody in the community tell you what God is clearly telling you, and I mean that because they don't know, and when you and God are having that candy conversation back and forth, and he teaching you, he taught Moses, he taught Abraham, he taught Samuel, he taught Eli, he taught different ones, and King David, he was with him until King David did his own thing. When you look at what God shows you, different men and women of God, different ones in the Bible, when they stop listening to him, he just give them over to the ref debate minds. And he lifts his spirit up, he sit up and quarrel with them. There was no debate because it was his. Ananias even tried to tell him how evil and wicked he used to call him Saul, how bad he was. Don't mistake him for King Saul. Saul, he's the one we know as Paul in the Bible. When you become a child of God, he gives us a new name.

SPEAKER_01

Look at Abram, he became Abraham, Jacob, Israel. And then what do you call them?

SPEAKER_00

Look it up and see. That's a trivia question. And then let me know if you want to give me some fan mail. Send it this way. Like you're right, Winifer, or no, you're wrong. Whichever one, I stand to be corrected. But just remember that. People trying to act like you acting all brand new. No, they are showing you who they've been all along. They were carrying on like this, and you thought they were kind.

SPEAKER_01

Always wanting to be in the company of the saints. So you can learn from them.

SPEAKER_00

And I'm not talking about the saint saints, man, the ones that went through something. Everybody goes through things. So don't let me put you down or belittle what you have gone through. I stand corrected. I apologize for that. I'm not talking about the different saints that I know of in the Catholic Church. Excuse me. Because Lord knows I am definitely not a saint. I nowhere near the finish line as far as him having been finished with me. That he has done everything. No, he's still more than me. Yes, he has. Verse 10 through 13. Your strength comes from the Lord. Let's go back and repeat that. Read that again. Because we need to know that. It says once again, Ephesians 6, verse 10 through 13. Finally, draw your strength from the Lord and from his mighty power. Put on the armor of God so that you may be able to stand firm against the tactics of the devil. For our struggle is not with flesh and blood, but with the principalities, with the powers, with the world rulers of this present darkness, with the evil spirits in the heavens. Therefore, put on the armor of God that you may be able to resist on the evil day, and having done everything to hold your ground. I want to tell you something. Because when we have done wrong and tried to steal and take, I've watched people multiple, multiple, multiple times in the spirit. And even in the flesh, they don't know that you can, they really do not even think to fathom that God has shown you what they have tried to do. They literally think that they are a celebrator, just rolling through. Sheer, he don't have anything. Even when you're just like pulling back, being distant from them, like I recognize your evil, they don't even comprehend that you even have an inkling of an idea that they have been trying to do things to you that's inappropriate until God finally reveals to them and lets them know. Yeah, someone will come and tell them. They will definitely do that. God is telling me because there is a time when He will use a medium or someone like that, because that's what you're accustomed to going to them for answers and whatnot. And he will use them. Evidence of something that occurred with Samuel. Because Samuel had died, and David was now, he had now been anointed, and we knew that he was going to be the king, as well as Saul understood that as well. Saul knew that David was gonna be his successor, and Saul was very was someone that was feared. He really was. He was feared because he was a great king. Rightly so. You know, when kings rule, you want to have a king that's ruling over you that's strong. You really do not want a king that is not strong ruling over you and whatnot. Anyhow, Samuel, he was told uh to go and anoint someone to go and anoint David. But first let's read this here first Samuel chapter nine, and this is verse let's start with verse twenty-five. When they came down from the high place into the city, a mattress was spread for Saul on the roof, and he slept there. At daybreak, Samuel called to Saul on the roof, get up, and I will start you on your journey. Saul rose and he and Samuel went outside the city together. As they were approaching the edge of the town, Samuel said to Saul, Tell the servant to go on ahead of us, but stay here yourself for the moment, that I may give you a message from God. Samuel chapter 10, verse 1 says, Then from a flask he had with him Samuel poured oil on Saul's head. He also kissed him, saying, The Lord anoints you commander over his heritage. You are to govern the Lord's people, Israel, and to give them the grass of their enemies round about. This will be the sign for you that the Lord has anointed you commander over his heritage. When you leave me today, you will meet two men near Rachel's tomb, at Zila in the territory of Benjamin, who will say to you, The asses you went to look for have been found. Yeah. But is anxious about you and says, What shall I do about my son? Father, farther on when you arrive at the Terebaneth of Tabor, you will meet you will be met by three men going up to God at Bethel. One will be bringing three kids, another three loaves of bread, and the third a skin of wine. They will greet you and offer you two wave offerings of bread, which you will take from them. After that you will come to Gibeath, Elihim, where there is a garrison of the Philistines. As you enter that city you will meet a band of prophets and a prophetic state coming down from the high place, preceded by leers, tambourines, flutes, and harps. The spirit of the Lord will rush upon you, and you will join them in their prophetic state, and will be charged into another man. When you see these signs fulfilled, and will excuse me, let me go back to verse six. The spirit of the Lord will rush upon you, and you will join them in their prophetic state and will be changed into another man. I said charged instead of changed. When you see these signs fulfilled, do whatever you judge feasible, because God is with you. Now go down ahead of me to Gilgal, for I shall come down to you to offer holocausts and to sacrifice peace offerings. Wait seven days until I come to you. I shall then tell you what you must do. When God is doing something great inside of you or around you, and he's gonna use you, be obedient and listen to the word of God. Okay. Now when God has anointed you to do his will, it doesn't matter what anyone has to say about it. It really doesn't. It really doesn't. You can't just let people do what you want to they want to do.

SPEAKER_01

You can't.

SPEAKER_00

And through disobedience, let's see what happens when you don't do what God has asked you to do. Because there are many. When they see that God is going to use you for something, instead of them continuing on their journey with God and doing what they need to do, some will try to reach out and touch and take and do what they're not supposed to do. Now, 1 Samuel chapter 13, verse 10, we're going to read. 10 through 14, it says, He had finished this offering with when Samuel arrived. Saul went out to greet him, and Samuel asked him, What have you done? Saul replied, When I saw that the men were slipping away from me, since you had not come by the specified time. And with the Philistines assembled at Mikmash, I said to myself, Now the Philistines will come down against me at Gilbal, and I have not let yet sought the Lord's blessing. So in my anxiety I offered up the Holocaust. Samuel's response was, You have been foolish. Have you kept the command that have you kept the command the Lord your God gave you, the Lord would now establish your kinship in Israel as lasting. But as things are, your kingdom shall not endure. The Lord has sought out a man after his own heart and has appointed him commander on his people, of his people, excuse me, because you broke the Lord's command. When they see that they are no longer going to be a vessel used by Christ, neither are their children, anyone in their ancestry pool, their bloodline, and he has selected another, that causes them to like, I can't believe this. And then to give a reason behind disobeying something that God has told them, trying to harm you once they realize it's you that God has chosen. Don't allow the enemy to get you so frazzled to you lose sight of what a God has told you to do. Remember Ephesians 6. Okay. Ephesians 6, verse 14 through 17. That whole armor of God. And we have to constantly be praying. Because not only are we to be clothed in the armor of God, we have to also be able to speak and pray. So Ephesians 6, verse 18 says, with all prayer and supplication, pray at every opportunity in the spirit. To that end, be watchful with all perseverance and supplication for all the holy ones and also for me, that speech may be given me to open my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains, so that I may have the courage to speak as I must. Don't just keep to yourself, let it be known, and pray about all things, because things will be revealed to you. Now, God will also make your enemies your footstool, okay? Because as you know, Saul was corrected, he was reproved, so there's gonna be another one that's gonna come after him. We're not gonna dwell on them today because that's not what we're here for. We're here when we're under attack. Saul was under attack by the enemy, and he failed to seek God. There have been times where I have been under attack, and I tried to do it in my own strength. Like, okay, come near me. I got a nine millimeter, I'm gonna put that on you. No, that's not what God wants, He's the only one that you need, and He will correct whatever errors there are. He will. I'm not there again, I'm serious. Because whenever you are going through all kinds of stuff and God is showing you who is doing it, you want to knock them down. Excuse me, but let God do it. Now, let's see what happens here, verse 19. First Chronicles. Give me a chance to get to our first Chronicles chapter 19. Verse 19. It says, When the vassals of Hadadezer saw themselves vanquished by Israel, they made peace with David and became his subjects. After this, the Armenes refused to come to the aid of the Ammonites. You know, God will make your enemies your footstool. Seriously, they had done so wrong, horrible things. When they realize, I don't know who they thought they were fighting, but when you come to the realization, no matter what kind of blows you are throwing at the person, that God has clearly chosen as the vessel he's gonna use and build up to help his people that are crying out to him, and you keep blocking it, telling them they're gonna do this, they're gonna do that, you keep running up against them, attacking them.

SPEAKER_01

Whatever you want to do to them, just remember God will make your enemies your footstool. Yes, he will.

I've seen where people that I mean just so troubling in the spirit, and in the flesh is getting to that. You can't even walk down, I'm gonna make you speak to me. Raising hell with you, and you trying to walk and just enjoy the day. Just attacking you, letting the enemy use them any way they please, calling you names and stuff. And you're just like, Do you know that you are being a vessel for the enemy? And right after they have done it, God shows himself, and he silences the devil. They can't even look at you, head all held down, and those that do try to lift up and look at you and let you know you ain't doing you ain't doing nothing to me. I'm still standing here and I'm gonna do what I want done.

SPEAKER_01

That's the boldness, the arrogance. But God has a set time.

SPEAKER_00

Well, He's gonna knock them down. They're gonna repent. And when they repent, does that mean that they're gonna come up to you and say, I'm actually sorry about you know how I treated you and how I did nine times out of ten? Absolutely not. They're gonna avoid you like the plague, or walk right in front of you like now what? But if you could take a peek and look inside that heart and that spirit and how that brain is twirling all around up there, sitting on their head, you'd be amazed at what God is doing, and he can't fully deliver them because of their refusal to let go of pride and ego.

SPEAKER_01

Something that looked like her. That's me.

SPEAKER_00

Because when you see me, y'all ain't never seen a picture of me other than the cartoon. But if you see me, I'm not a prize, but I see myself as beautiful. I love God, I do, I love his son, what he's done for me. Oh my gosh, and the Holy Spirit, I love his mother and all of his heavenly hosts, they keep me safe, they watch over my grandkids, they watch over my children, and my children are growing ground children, and most of all, they watch over me. They do. Yeah, I heard uh I was at a laundromat doing my laundry. Man, this enemy attacked me so bad. I have a child that is a recovering drug addict, and she looks like me, and she does, but she's a younger version. But if you see me, you'll know who she is. And the enemy was so upset, he was just saying, You're a drug addict. I guarantee you got so much drugs in that car. This isn't to put her on spot, baby. I heard when God spoke to that person, you know, that's her mother. Somebody bring it to them. They broke it down to him. That daughter of hers, she is no longer a drug addict, she's doing good for herself. Let them know she's doing better than you. And you see why, don't you? Her mama is praying for her. Baby, don't underestimate the prayers of a praying mama or a praying daddy, papa, whoever you may call them, memos, whoever, a auntie, even a cousin, somebody that loves and cares for you. Whatever the devil may try to do to you. He can't do. When God got through with that person, it didn't even take I think maybe 20 minutes. The devil had condemned him. Couldn't even hold his head up, nor could the woman that was with him. It don't take 20, 30 years for God to get on board and work on people. It only takes a few moments, depending on what he's trying to get across to us. Because remember, we're all vessels. You can be a vessel for who God uses, the enemy, to cause the issue, or you can be the vessel where he's using himself. What God let me know is I delivered your baby from drug addiction. And the whole area that knew of her can testify for it. That's what she was telling him. And she let him know you can't do that. Get it out of here.

SPEAKER_01

You can't bring that in here. Don't try to go toe-to-toe with him.

SPEAKER_00

Don't. Because God is gonna show himself. Yeah. Yeah. And see, that person was upset because I would not stand in agreement with them for what they were trying to do. And God showed me why he wouldn't let me, and my eyes were like big pumped-out marbles. Like that's why a lot of us are stopping blessings because we want to control them. Yeah. And we cannot control it. But that was something that God wanted me to know. Now, I want to go over to Job chapter 34, verse 22 to 28, because a lot of what we go through, he's going to reward us. He's gonna pay us for our troubles. And a lot of people don't realize because their refusal to ask God to set them free from the wiles of the devil, you're the one that's cooked, excuse me, causing me to be blessed. As long as I don't follow behind the wiles of whatever you're trying to do. You know? And at times it'll be like you'll be just like standing there, like looking at them. And when God has it where you're not saying anything to them and you're just looking at them, they're looking at you like, why you ain't saying nothing? That's because God is like, No, uh, you don't need to say anything. You saying it all. He's being up for both of us. Chapter 34, verse 22 to 28 says, There is no darkness so dense that evildoers can hide in it. Therefore, he discerns their works. He turns at night and crushes them, for he forewarns no man of his time. Without trial he breaks the mighty and sets others in their stead, because they turned away from him and heeded none of his ways, but caused the cries of the poor to reach him, so that he heard the pleas of the afflicted.

SPEAKER_01

Remember Ephesians six. Pray. Because what did he say there?

SPEAKER_00

He hears us. Trouble ain't gonna last always, and a lot of things that we are going through, it's I have never seen how peaceful things can be when you can see the blazing fire, some others that are around you, they're walking through that flame alone. They are, and then for it to be turned all the way up, and I'm not talking about how they turned it up for day the Hebrew boys, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. I ain't talking about that. That was they turn that up. People will do that to you. Because they can't, you can't, they can't control you. That was all about control, and they'll want to kill you, and the ones that they they trying to attack you, trying to hurt you, trying to kill you, and they're the ones that are dying. And I'm not talking about just dying in the flesh, dying in the spirit. He's gonna cut you off. Yeah, trying to force their beliefs on you, and you're saying no, absolutely not. For what you don't get to do that. Now, let's go on to verse 31 to 33, and we're still in Job chapter 34, and it says, When anyone says to God, I was misguided, I will offend no more. Teach me wherein I have sinned, if I have done wrong, I will do so no more. When you then say that, God must punish, since you reject what he is doing. It is you who must choose not. I speak therefore what you know. Bam, you gotta repent, you gotta receive what you have done and be willing to be changed. It really does. Let's go on to Job chapter 42, verse 10. And that's not hard to do, but if it's not time for change, you're gonna procrastinate, and you might not, depending on what God's will is. Now, he will reward us. Job 42, verse 10 says, also the Lord restored the prosperity of Job after he had prayed for his friends. The Lord even gave to Job twice as much as he had before. And God amazing. I found myself praying for the very people that threw me in the furnace. I'm serious. I never thought I would be doing that. Man, my heart was so black from how they treated me. I was looking in the flesh until one day he let me know you can't look at them like that. He said, I have to cut them off from you because where I'm taking you, they can't go because you see the trouble they causing right here, and you ain't even got your feet up off the ground. Just think of what could possibly go wrong when I get you where you're going. He let me know there are gonna be people that I have set apart specifically for this time, and when you all meet up with one another, you're gonna know definitely you are destined to work together because I said it, and it's gonna be enough for everybody, there's gonna be healing, breakthroughs, deliverance. It's gonna be a lot, and we can't have people that are greedy, selfish, wicked, with their reptilate minds and their seared hearts, and their bruised and damaged spirits, walking around looking like they are put together and they are broken themselves. Let's give God some praise. Dear Heavenly Father, I want to tell you thank you for the message that you gave us. I pray that you'll continue to be with us in Jesus' name, guiding our steps and continue to protect us, covering us, and shielding us from the evil that those would like to cause us. I ask in Jesus' name. Amen. Now there's gonna be an episode that's coming soon where I talk about someone sent the evil eye to me. It was as control, a scare tactic. Because some of you might be going through that. You have to wait for God to tell me the scripture and give me the utterance, what he wants to say. Stay blessed and peace to you.
