How to Have Power in Your Life

00:00 thank you and welcome in this beautiful
00:03 Tuesday night and a Sue mentioned that
00:07 we are going to be doing on decree and
00:10 declaring because it is your right as a
00:13 child of God my husband Alex he's the
00:18 studious one of the family
00:20 he knows the word inside and out I'm
00:23 just the moderator to keep him on tabs
00:26 and keep him on track that we're not
00:28 going three hours later cuz he can he's
00:31 full of the word so anyways I really
00:34 feel during the season of time that what
00:36 God is calling all of his children to do
00:40 is really know how to walk in their
00:42 authority and I I feel like for the past
00:46 years all of us have experienced
00:50 hardship in one way or the other and
00:52 he's wanting us to rise up and to
00:55 realize who we are we are a child of the
00:59 Most High the almighty one and we're not
01:02 only that we're citizens of the kingdom
01:04 and it means with citizens comes rights
01:07 and we need to stand up and declare our
01:10 rights just as we have beautiful rights
01:13 as being Americans and we stand up for
01:15 those rights and when people wrong this
01:17 we have a judicial system in place to
01:20 help us to overcome and so forth in the
01:23 kingdom of God as citizens we also have
01:26 it because there is the law there are
01:29 certain things written in the word that
01:31 we are to declare and decree so
01:35 basically we're gonna go over the what
01:39 why when and how and what it means what
01:43 does it mean to declare and decree by
01:47 definition declaring is an official
01:50 order issued by a legal authority who is
01:53 that legal authority it's Jesus Christ
01:55 our Lord and Savior it's the God most
01:58 high sitting on his throne high and
01:59 lifted up so it's an order it's an order
02:03 or something that the keen decrees
02:05 declaring is to say something right to
02:09 see something in a knowledge of
02:11 possession
02:12 we have certain possessions certain
02:13 legal rights that we have possession of
02:15 and we need to know how to stand up and
02:17 use those possessions especially when we
02:19 come into a time and place of hardship a
02:23 sickness things are coming against us we
02:26 need to know how to rise up and to
02:28 declare our legal rights and we're also
02:32 going to go over prayer prayer by
02:34 definition is this a solemn request or
02:37 help or expression of things address to
02:39 God or their object of worship and Jesus
02:42 tells us how do we pray he says we pray
02:45 to our Father in Heaven so in the
02:49 clarinha cream Jesus spoke to all types
02:52 of objects right he declare and decree
02:55 the things like the flint the fig tree
02:57 he declare and decree to the storm to be
03:02 still he declared the critic demons to
03:05 come out right he cast out demons he
03:08 declare and decree over wine he made
03:10 water into wine his first miracle and he
03:13 absolutely declared and to create over
03:15 diseases so I think many of you have you
03:27 already know a lot of this but it's not
03:29 gonna hurt hearing again and we're
03:31 believing that as we do is gonna be the
03:33 Spirit of God that comes forth in power
03:36 and revelation and so I'm excited about
03:40 that you guys so mark 11:22 so Jesus
03:47 just got through he was hungry he was
03:53 walking with his disciples and he saw a
03:57 fig tree that wasn't even in season yet
03:59 and as he walked by it he basically he
04:08 saw that there was no fig figs on that
04:10 tree
04:11 so Jesus didn't pray to the Father he
04:14 just spoke to the tree and he said he
04:17 cursed it he cursed the fig tree and so
04:21 nothing happened nothing that purty
04:25 des how there was no signs of that fig
04:29 tree being cursed
04:30 the following day they're coming back
04:31 and Peter goes oh my gosh look at this
04:35 fig tree it's it's withered from the
04:39 roots on up it was like done in 24 hours
04:44 so the point is Jesus spoke to the tree
04:49 cursed it and there's actually it's it's
04:54 interesting there's actually trees in
04:58 Jerusalem right now on certain parts of
05:01 the year when they should be blooming
05:03 that don't bloom fix and who knows one
05:07 of those trees is probably the one that
05:08 Jesus cursed so we're not teaching you
05:11 out of curse friend so but Jesus
05:14 actually he either so a different kind
05:19 of prayer is actually speaking to that
05:22 particular problem so and I'm convinced
05:25 we don't take advantage of speaking to
05:29 our mountains we don't take advantage of
05:32 speaking to our challenges okay and the
05:37 thing is Jesus is not going to do it for
05:39 us we have to rise up and do it
05:42 so mark 11:22 2:24 have faith and God
05:47 constantly issue I assure you and most
05:50 solemnly say to you whoever says to this
05:52 mountain be lifted up and thrown into
05:54 the sea and does not doubt in his heart
05:58 in God's unlimited power but believes
06:01 that what he says is going to take place
06:04 it will be done for him in accordance
06:06 with God's will for this reason I'm
06:09 telling you whatever things you ask for
06:11 in prayer in accordance with God's will
06:13 and what is this well his word if you're
06:18 not in the word if you don't read it and
06:20 you don't if you don't dwell on it if
06:23 it's not important to you then guess
06:25 what you're not gonna be speaking about
06:26 it you're actually gonna be taken for a
06:28 ride by the enemy of your soul and
06:32 you're just going to be
06:35 yours is gonna be going to and fro every
06:38 wind is the way Jesus described believe
06:44 with confidence trust that you have
06:46 received them and they will be given to
06:48 you so the key here is to say so most
06:54 solemnly I say to you whoever says to
06:58 this mountain notice it doesn't say pray
07:01 to the mountain it says say and then but
07:05 believes that what he says is going to
07:07 take place so it's there three times and
07:10 so what's the definition shifts say to
07:13 utter words as to convey an information
07:16 the main point here is to up to instruct
07:22 it's an instruction it's command and so
07:26 going so basically knowing the word is
07:31 what you're going to be saying just as
07:34 Jesus was out in the desert 40 days he
07:38 come back to the Satan by the word right
07:42 for it is written he said that how many
07:43 times so who declares things we have
07:48 Kings presidents those in authority I'm
07:51 sure we can all remember what JFK said
07:54 right we got all remember who said who
07:57 the first men who land on the moon what
07:59 they said there's certain things are so
08:00 powerful in history that they just stick
08:03 into our brain and likewise the words of
08:07 our Lord she does not only be in our
08:09 mind but in our heart and spirit it
08:12 should be just packed down so much that
08:15 when you're in that area that you can
08:18 respond with the word of the Lord so how
08:21 do we walk in authority how do we walk
08:23 in victory this is a question I think
08:26 all of us want a know and it's a matter
08:30 of walking through is this orange
08:32 sharpens iron I think as you walk
08:35 through trials and tribulations you get
08:37 a sharpen a lot more so in it also I
08:41 think if you're a child of God is is
08:44 crucial that you know who you are in
08:46 crying
08:47 so we keep saying that so we have to
08:49 have our minds renewed by the word of
08:51 the Lord
08:52 so basically God might just tell you
08:55 just stick in Proverbs stick and John
08:58 and just read it over and over till you
09:00 really know it and that you can just
09:03 really perform it and you'd be surprised
09:05 when you come into situations that you
09:08 were praying for other people how the
09:10 word will just start flowing out of you
09:14 Alex is really a brilliant and knowing
09:18 exactly where the word is like I'll tell
09:22 it inside joke it's like before they had
09:24 Google on their phones you just had a
09:26 cell phone this is like years ago it
09:28 like we had cell phones back in the 90s
09:31 anyways I'd be at a Bible study my gosh
09:33 I know that I know that scripture but I
09:36 don't know where it's at so I'd be
09:37 calling him on the phone going where's
09:39 that at you know I knew it but I didn't
09:42 know where it is not that that's you
09:44 know all impairments to everybody but
09:46 it's kind of like just knowing the word
09:48 and he knows it
09:50 I know it my own way everybody knows the
09:53 word in their own way but we are to be
09:56 or meant to walk and be Christ on earth
09:59 I think that's what he really wants us
10:01 to to be as a representative of who he
10:05 is so that's this is so powerful first
10:12 John 4:17 by this by this love is
10:16 perfected with us so that we may have
10:19 confidence in the day of judgment
10:21 because as he is so also are we in this
10:27 world that's powerful stuff as he is so
10:32 are we in this world I believe it's 1st
10:37 Corinthians 4:13 says that we have the
10:40 mind of Christ right now don't ever say
10:43 I forgot I can't remember
10:46 don't say that why because you have the
10:50 mind of Christ and actually a an awesome
10:55 brother in Christ who's like someone
10:58 that used to go here somewhat
11:01 one time he actually he didn't rebuke me
11:03 but he you know I said I forget and he
11:06 says no you don't cuz you have the mind
11:08 of Christ that's good stuff so we are
11:15 Christ on earth why because jesus said
11:20 in Matthew 28 all Authority has been
11:24 given to me by the Father now go when he
11:28 said go what does that mean
11:30 it's delegated power and so we know that
11:36 he's inside of us right but he's also
11:40 ascended into the right hand of the
11:44 Father he's already done it when he said
11:47 it is finished he completed everything
11:50 in with the atonement sacrifice that he
11:55 did on the cross He fulfilled everything
11:58 but on top of that basically from the
12:01 time that he was Chris bruised whipped
12:07 bled and so on to all the way to the to
12:14 him resurrecting he completed everything
12:16 for us already so that it says in 1st
12:21 Peter chapter 1 I believe it's verse 3
12:25 that we have everything we'll ever need
12:29 in life and that's because he's already
12:32 completed it now all we have to do is
12:34 step into that and so Jesus says those
12:39 that hunger and thirst for righteousness
12:41 will be filled in other words he's
12:46 looking for those that are hungry he's
12:50 looking for those that are there ready
12:55 receive they're seeking
12:58 Matthew 7 asked and keep on asking seek
13:03 and keep on seeking knock and keep on
13:05 knocking it's important to be diligent
13:07 it's important to be passionate about
13:12 him
13:14 and the purpose there's a reason that
13:18 you're here right now you're not an
13:21 accident the things that you go through
13:23 are not accidents
13:25 why because Psalms 139 says every day
13:28 has already been written about you in a
13:31 book so you are Christ on earth
13:36 I'm going to say it again you are Christ
13:39 on earth so when you walk into a room
13:42 realize that Christ is going in there
13:46 with you the kingdom of God goes in that
13:51 room like right now the kingdom of God
13:54 is speaking forth okay even though it's
13:57 us - and you guys many of you are
14:00 familiar with us it's really the Holy
14:02 Spirit speaking so don't take yourself
14:06 for granted realize all things possible
14:10 through you and so God wants us to talk
14:15 to the atmosphere so if you're
14:18 challenged with problems troubles you
14:22 know whether it's physical you start
14:24 saying God wants me well God wants me
14:28 well as a matter of fact let's say that
14:30 God wants me well God wants me to
14:34 prosper and so 3rd John 2 says talks
14:40 about why God wants you well beloved
14:42 above all things that pray that you may
14:44 prosper and be in health even as your
14:47 soul prospers
14:49 so Lord I declare that my soul is
14:54 prospering and that I have excellence of
14:56 soul you start talking like Jesus did
15:00 you know and so go ahead kill him well
15:06 we can you know what I always find very
15:08 interesting is that it's so at least for
15:11 me it's very easy to say yeah yeah you
15:13 know I have the mind of Christ and rahu
15:15 and I'm gonna do this I'm gonna do that
15:17 but it's like do how deep do I believe
15:22 that how deep am I gonna walk in that
15:27 we are human and you know we do have our
15:30 trials but where am I going to where am
15:33 i drawing that border line where where
15:35 am I going to turn am I going to turn to
15:37 the flesh and the soul or am I going to
15:39 turn to the word of the Lord and say hey
15:41 wait a minute you know we have to
15:43 condition ourselves we have to it says
15:47 that we are growing from glory to glory
15:48 we are becoming the mind of Christ so if
15:51 we are everyday we're growing every day
15:54 we're learning every day we're saying oh
15:56 gosh you know I really messed up there
15:58 because I'm carrying the Christ within
16:01 me I'm carrying the Holy Spirit and you
16:04 get to the point where it just becomes a
16:07 lifestyle for you it's you have those
16:11 Christians who come to church and then
16:13 they go out in the world for Monday
16:15 through Saturday but then it's kind of
16:18 like having that intimate relationship
16:21 with the Lord there was an awesome book
16:24 on brother
16:25 I know who that was by brother chef
16:28 brought it out but anyways he was a I
16:31 think a monk who wrote this yeah brother
16:34 Lawrence she wrote this beautiful blog
16:36 about the intimate relationship with the
16:38 Lord and it becomes a way of life
16:40 because in order to believe this is easy
16:44 to say yeah yeah you know I I'm healed
16:48 in Jesus name and yet we're still sick
16:50 I'm thinking what does this look like
16:53 Laura to to really walk in total
16:55 wholeness for the next years I have on
16:59 the side what does that would look like
17:00 you know how do I perceive that how do I
17:02 I go deep in the Lord and I'm asking him
17:05 questions because I can see all the
17:07 words I want but it's this in all your
17:10 stuff get wisdom with all your wisdom
17:13 get understanding and knowledge and
17:15 that's with the word you you can simply
17:18 say it but you wouldn't like chew on it
17:22 you want to understand it and just like
17:24 like alex says a lot of this stuff we
17:26 all know here especially you've been in
17:29 the Lord for a while it's all very you
17:33 know you guys just know it but to walk
17:35 in it every day and
17:37 truly truly believe it to truly believe
17:40 in the Lord that he's gonna pull you
17:43 through in every situation to truly
17:46 truly believe that it is his desire that
17:49 you walk and wholeness and health and
17:52 great mental health great soul health
17:55 great everything so you can go out there
17:58 and just be you know I mean we should be
18:01 to the point where we just walk and
18:03 we're just radiating the holy spirit out
18:05 then we're gonna be like Peter and the
18:07 Apostles that we just walk along people
18:10 are healed I really believe that's where
18:12 the Lord wants the church he wants
18:15 everybody to stand up and say hey the
18:18 enemy has taken a lot of ground from us
18:21 yeah he as is it's kind of like a tug of
18:23 war but God has Saints Bryce Upchurch
18:26 walk in this Authority walking knowing
18:29 who you truly are
18:31 yes the word says believers shall lay
18:34 hands on the sick and they shall recover
18:36 - I really believe that I do do I see it
18:41 all the time I don't and I come a runny
18:45 way going what does this look like Lord
18:47 what you know yeah I go back and say
18:50 what why maybe and the Lord teaches me
18:54 through that and so that's where he
18:56 wants us not only just declaring with
18:58 our words but really no not really
19:01 seeking wisdom for God really seeking
19:03 his understanding of what this means how
19:07 does this look like it says we're not to
19:09 toil I mean could you imagine I mean
19:13 seriously I sit there and walk through
19:16 the day and going Louisville what does
19:17 that look like not to toil I mean I
19:20 don't know about you but I toil I'm
19:23 certainly a Martha in many areas but
19:25 what does that look like what does it
19:28 look like to walk and perfect out what
19:30 does it look like to have no offense
19:32 Jesus walked through crowds people are
19:37 spitting at him yelling at him he just
19:40 walks ooh cuz he has no offense at him
19:42 the enemy can't penetrate him because he
19:45 has no offense there and I sit there
19:47 marvel go WOW
19:50 what does that look like when I can just
19:52 walk through anything any situation
19:55 people slamming me to calling me things
19:57 or you know wrong me taking the parking
20:00 space that I've been waiting for 10
20:02 minutes floor at Costco you know what
20:04 does that look like seriously what does
20:06 that look like how do I walk in that and
20:10 it's precept upon precept it's knowing
20:13 when the Holy Spirit he's not only our
20:17 teacher he's our comforter he's our
20:20 teacher and he's our corrector right and
20:23 it's having that discernment knowing the
20:25 voice of Lorca's it says my sheep hears
20:27 my voice and follows after me so what
20:30 are we choosing what do we choose you
20:32 know we're choosing God's voice which is
20:34 the word that I am healed in Jesus name
20:37 so there's just so much more he wants us
20:40 to go deeper he wants us to really
20:42 really just understand and just start
20:46 declaring what he has for us
20:48 why don't you do Proverbs so Jesus says
20:55 this is one of the most if anything
20:58 tonight this is the key point Jesus says
21:02 out of the abundance of the heart the
21:04 mouth speaks
21:05 so what's rattling in your mind in your
21:11 soul and what you've been meditating on
21:15 eventually it's gonna come out of your
21:17 mouth so we've got to realize that I
21:22 forget the amount of the the or I've
21:27 heard there's like hundreds or thousands
21:30 of thoughts that we have in our minds
21:32 like every minute they've done
21:37 scientific so that's why we have to take
21:40 every thought captive we have to and we
21:44 during the day or the week or so we leak
21:47 we leak out things that are good meaning
21:53 we need to have our mind renewed on the
21:55 daily basis so interject something here
21:59 um this is a really really strong
22:03 long Scripture and we I know all of us
22:05 like you know the abundance of our heart
22:07 our mouth speaks and we understand that
22:09 we quoted we saying but do we really
22:13 engage in that intentionally 24/7 do we
22:20 really intentionally engage with those
22:23 words and you have to get to the point
22:27 where when somebody says something to
22:29 you are you thinking happy thoughts or
22:32 negative thoughts and how are you gonna
22:33 respond to that you have to just train
22:37 yourself as a lawyer in the Lord Jesus
22:39 Christ to understand what's in your soul
22:43 because whatever it is resonating in
22:45 your heart and it's gonna come out your
22:48 boss does something to you what's your
22:50 first stop what's your first thought
22:51 that you're gonna say to somebody else
22:53 are you gonna be gossiping in a negative
22:55 way or are you gonna be the mediator say
22:58 well he might be having a bad day
23:00 let's give him grace let's go on you
23:03 never know what other people are going
23:04 through that they might say something
23:06 negative to you and it might be just
23:08 they need that respond of the love of
23:10 the Lord to be responded back this is
23:14 like so important and I think God wants
23:15 us to really sharpen and polish up our
23:19 brass on this one it's easy to sit there
23:23 say yeah yeah yeah you know my armor is
23:25 on my heart is good my soul is good and
23:28 yet you know we go about we just get out
23:30 the doors of church and we're you know
23:33 we're speaking negative thoughts like
23:36 I'll never pay my bills or you know that
23:38 that person my neighbors is always loud
23:40 he doesn't like me you know that dogs
23:42 always barking you know just you gotta
23:44 catch yourself catch your thoughts it
23:47 says to bring every thought into
23:49 captivity why because we have this way
23:52 of our thoughts is kind of dictating our
23:55 soul and our spirit but we got to get to
23:58 the point where our spirit is dictating
24:00 everything else because our spirit needs
24:04 to be aligned with God's holy spirit so
24:06 this is not in your notes but I would
24:11 say the two most powerful confessions
24:14 you can make
24:15 is I am ii is i have so for the most
24:24 part I'm not here to chastise you but
24:29 don't say never you know unless you're
24:32 renouncing something it's it's probably
24:35 not a good thing to just say so
24:37 your words are powerful okay my words
24:41 are powerful and so when you see
24:44 situation that is negative hold back
24:49 from speaking death over that situation
24:53 just practically if you're sick okay
25:03 don't go telling the world about you
25:07 being sick because a lot of people do
25:09 that just to gain attention and apathy
25:13 don't go blasting on Facebook hey you
25:17 know because the thing the thing about
25:20 it is that all you need is agreement
25:23 with one person that's all you need
25:26 the other thing is I did a study on on
25:33 Jesus commands or actually his healing
25:37 and in the Gospels any one of you guys
25:40 can do this and I thought gosh how long
25:44 were his prayers so if you do a study
25:47 over his is whenever he started teaching
25:51 or preaching two things would happen
25:54 demons would manifest and the people
25:59 that need healing would count forth so
26:02 he either it would either be deliverance
26:05 of demons dealing with the devils and he
26:09 never prayed to the Father he spoke
26:11 right to the demons and or he would
26:14 command healing in that body and a lot
26:17 of times he never even touched him his
26:19 longest prayer was the the guy in the
26:24 gurney with the four guys bring him down
26:27 through the roof
26:28 that prayer or that that if you do the
26:32 amount of words that he spoke his
26:34 longest ones was about 20 words so
26:37 dealing with the demonic or healing
26:41 supernatural he just it was about 15
26:48 seconds fifteen or thirty seconds
26:50 all you have to do is read the words a
26:51 lot of times it was just one word and he
26:54 was probably go or leave and they're
26:57 gone
26:58 so there's power in our words right and
27:04 so let's see you basically this is so
27:12 going back to math mark 11:22 24 there's
27:17 a great book written by God a man named
27:21 Kenneth Hagin and he wrote and you can
27:25 actually download this for free on the
27:27 web and he wrote a book called you can
27:32 have what you say and his base on mark
27:34 11 22 to 24 because of what Jesus says
27:37 so
27:40 there's another preacher says you're
27:42 hung by your tongue you're hung by your
27:46 tongue so you're either speaking of life
27:49 or you're speaking death to your
27:51 situation so proverbs 18:21 says the
27:54 tongue has the power of life and death
27:55 and those who love it will eat its fruit
28:00 so it's not discouraging you from not
28:04 speaking it's encouraging you but it's
28:07 saying watch out for the worse that
28:09 you're speaking out so we're talking
28:13 about the kingdom here so the kingdom is
28:18 a kingdom of wars in this voice activate
28:21 as you've you've well heard through a
28:23 couple other people are quite a few it's
28:26 voice-activated
28:27 so this thing we can spend weeks on
28:32 talking about this but if you think
28:35 about Genesis in how God created
28:39 everything
28:40 to universe the galaxies everything
28:43 through his words and then when you go
28:47 to the New Testament and Jesus
28:49 delegating that power to us it hasn't
28:53 changed so as he is so are you in this
28:57 world so the thing is is that we need to
29:02 we need to know that we need to realize
29:04 that we need to remind ourselves that we
29:06 are there's tremendous power inside of
29:11 us and a lot of that though is what you
29:15 feed on during the week okay so the
29:24 question is when to decree you want to
29:28 go back to that no it's why don't you
29:33 okay so um just I was talking about
29:36 Genesis 1 so the the entire God starts
29:42 and in the beginning he creates so he's
29:49 chapter 1 and 2 let us make especially
29:53 chapter 1 verse 26 to 28 you've heard of
29:56 the kingdom of God Jesus and John the
30:01 Baptist that's there that was their main
30:03 message in the gospel was preaching the
30:05 kingdom even after Jesus resurrected
30:08 from the dead he still spoke the kingdom
30:10 so part of the kingdom is that means the
30:14 king's domain dominion power that's what
30:19 God wants us to walk in so Genesis 1:26
30:22 to 28 is part of the message of the
30:24 kingdom let us make man in our image
30:28 were you were created in His image in
30:31 his likeness let them have dominion over
30:35 the fish of the sea the birds of the
30:36 heavens over the livestock over the all
30:38 the earth and over every creeping thing
30:41 that creeps on the earth which we don't
30:44 really have that much up here in
30:46 Southern California so God created man
30:48 in his own image in the image of God he
30:51 created him
30:52 male-female and God blessed them and God
30:54 said to them be fruitful and multiply
30:56 there's that prospering third John - and
31:00 fill the earth and subdue it and have
31:02 dominion over basically everything so
31:09 that's God's delegated he basically
31:16 God's already all-powerful omniscient it
31:23 says that he holds the galaxies in his
31:25 hand if you can only picture that and so
31:30 by the way there's there's more than one
31:33 Sun there's actually a Sun that was ten
31:35 200 times the Sun that there is right
31:38 now and I recently learned that it was
31:42 like and so the things by the way he
31:45 created in Genesis 1 he's never had to
31:49 recreate it so he started out with two
31:53 people Adam and even now we have 707 1/2
31:57 billion people on this globe he's never
32:00 had to go back and recreate animals
32:04 vegetation man so that word is so
32:08 powerful and that word is inside of us
32:13 that power is inside of us so when do we
32:20 decree this is a real simple anytime
32:24 anytime you need to decree God's Word
32:27 you start to crane it anytime that's
32:32 about it anytime it's a good time to
32:34 declare God's screen and she become just
32:36 a habit that you just Creek odds were
32:39 throughout the day you know you're in
32:42 different situations whether they're
32:44 good about you just declare God's Word
32:46 and we'll we'll next week we're gonna go
32:50 on to more the power of the tongue
32:53 because I know we don't we have work or
32:57 with our kids and most of us are just
32:59 not walking around 24/7 speaking God's
33:03 Word
33:04 we're more or less speaking with the
33:06 power of our tongues we want to we're
33:08 going to be touching on that because
33:09 that's very powerful too but why do CLE
33:12 decree and declare basically we got to
33:15 come back to and say it's our rights and
33:18 it's our privilege and we have to get
33:21 that so packed down into us and so
33:23 believing it that we need to stand up a
33:26 little bit straighter of their arms and
33:28 legs a little bit stronger stronger
33:30 knowing who we are in Christ and it says
33:36 in Psalms let the faith will rejoice
33:38 that he honors them let them sing for
33:40 joy as they lie on their beds let the
33:43 praises of God be in their mouths in the
33:45 sharp sword in their hands to execute
33:48 vengeance on the nation's and Punishment
33:51 on people's to bind their kings with
33:54 shackles and their leaders with iron
33:56 chains to execute judgment written
34:00 against them this is a glorious
34:03 privilege of his faithful ones that's
34:06 pretty powerful I know Wes and Lynn did
34:09 a whole teaching on singing the word
34:11 which is so awesomely powerful also -
34:13 and this is how you're faithful and
34:16 you're rejoicing in the Lord and through
34:18 that there's this I am just so excited
34:22 about the day I get to heaven and
34:24 realize how much was done on my behalf
34:27 because of what I spoke out because what
34:29 I sing out what I believed in because I
34:32 believe there's so much stuff that's
34:34 going on backstage I don't ever see and
34:37 it's gonna be a glorious thing to see
34:39 how much God really does for us
34:41 so go ahead so we missed we missed one
34:44 note here and also a joke 2220 it's the
34:49 copies there you will declare a thing
34:52 and you will be established for you so
34:54 light will shine on your ways so this
34:58 whole teaching connects to a lot of
35:02 what's been taught by super Dilys for
35:05 months here so so a lot of this is
35:09 actually connected you will pronounce
35:11 something to be and he will make it so
35:14 that's another translation you will
35:16 pronounce
35:17 think to be there it is saying and he
35:21 will make it sell Jesus spoke to the
35:24 storm peace be still and immediately it
35:26 was still immediately that's what the
35:29 gospel says so we go well that's Jesus
35:33 that's not us be challenged you know it
35:40 is your you are Christ on earth you have
35:45 the mind of Christ and so I think also
35:51 it's we walk with either ignorant which
35:55 God doesn't want us to be ignorant about
35:57 who we are God would love if you if you
36:03 have children and you see them taking
36:05 advantage of what you've taught them
36:09 you're a happy parent right verses ones
36:13 that are ignorant of or can't see what
36:17 you've taught them and so God wants us
36:20 to walk in the power of Christ John
36:25 14:12 says that even Jesus red-letter
36:31 words he says that the those that come
36:37 after me are gonna do greater signs than
36:39 me God's not bothered or troubled about
36:43 anyone doing greater science now he you
36:48 know he rose people from the dead I mean
36:53 I've never done that you know
36:55 never ever I want to I mean so we're
36:59 commanded in Matthew 10 seven eight you
37:03 want to see here the gospel in two
37:04 verses it says preach the gospel heal
37:10 the sick raise the dead cast out demons
37:11 and cleanse lepers that is the gospel in
37:16 two verses so do you do you want to know
37:18 what God's given you authority to do
37:20 those two verses and so and the reason
37:25 is he wants to free people he wants
37:27 liberate people he wants to bring
37:30 that aroma of salvation healing and
37:35 deliverance on this earth through his
37:38 own not the frozen Chosin but his own
37:41 that's us and so just that psalms 149
37:55 it's so profitable to execute vengeance
37:58 on the nation's to bind the Kings it
38:01 sits under and to execute the judgment
38:04 written against them this is the
38:06 glorious privilege of all his faithful
38:09 one so are you a faith one you are right
38:14 if you're here you know I'm assuming
38:16 you're hungry so he wants us to walk and
38:24 do what Jesus says so we're gonna start
38:32 bringing it all together
38:34 so wait how okay so how do we decree and
38:44 declare obviously we know about prayer
38:48 talking to God being intentional so
38:53 we're taught we're talking about
38:55 something even beyond prayer which is
38:57 actually a privilege that we have and
39:00 that speak in the word it's saying to
39:03 the problems the challenges they are in
39:06 your life so speak to your Mountain talk
39:11 to it okay if the enemy plants something
39:15 and you're feeling that negative thought
39:17 because of some report that you've had
39:21 isaiah 53:1
39:23 says whose report have you believed
39:27 that's challenging stuff and so
39:33 persevere God is faithful Hebrews 10 20
39:37 through let us seize and hold tightly
39:40 the confession of our hope without
39:41 wavering for he who promised is reliable
39:44 and trustworthy and faithful to his word
39:46 and so this is actually pretty awesome
39:51 but we are we believe in Christianity
39:56 Christianity one of the the meanings of
39:59 Christianity is the great profession or
40:02 the great confession and so realize that
40:07 it's it's a lot of it
40:11 if you go to Romans chapter 10 it says I
40:17 think I believe it's Romans 10:9 it says
40:20 if we confess God with our heart with
40:23 our mouth and believe God in our heart
40:25 we shall be saved
40:27 and so the way the entrance if the
40:31 entrance to the kingdom is through our
40:34 confession of Jesus I believe you are
40:37 Lord Savior that's from A to Z it's
40:41 always gonna be through our words in
40:45 other words the power is through our
40:46 words so in wrapping it up right now
40:52 it's just how do you declare in decrees
40:55 you pray we all know how to pray to our
40:56 Father and have him we speak the word we
41:00 speak and talk to your mountain and we
41:03 preserve God is faithful in Hebrews
41:05 10:23 says let us seize and hold tightly
41:11 the confession of our hope without
41:13 wavering for he who promised is reliable
41:17 and trustworthy and faithful so
41:21 everything that God has written down
41:23 he's faithful to perform his word his
41:26 word will not come back void it's just
41:30 it's just getting that belief and in
41:34 knowing who your God is so we just want
41:40 to encourage you tonight to take hold
41:44 of a message that can be so simplistic
41:46 but yet so rather deep it goes deep
41:50 because he really wants us to walk in it
41:52 day in and day out hour by hour and it
41:55 doesn't mean declaring everything and
41:57 speaking through it but being
42:00 intentional with our thoughts and our
42:01 actions and our voices of how we're
42:05 treating people around us how were
42:07 thinking you know it's like I came back
42:10 to take every thought captive because
42:12 like Alex says if we receive a bad
42:14 report then where does the mind go the
42:18 mind goes to that bad report this this
42:20 isn't this goes down the bunny trail and
42:23 sometimes I think we get so far down the
42:25 rabbit hole we don't know how to get
42:27 ourselves back up but it's for the Lord
42:29 and through his price people and what I
42:32 would encourage you tonight all of you
42:34 are here for prayer there are times when
42:37 we get so overwhelmed with life through
42:40 reports that we have our through
42:42 situations in his life but it's a good
42:46 time to rely on the body of Christ there
42:49 was a season when we were here all the
42:51 time because we were so beaten down that
42:54 a lot of times you don't even have the
42:56 strength to pray for yourself but there
42:59 is hope because there's other people in
43:01 the body of Christ that will pray for
43:03 you
43:04 so anyways and wrapping up we thank you
43:06 for your time next week we're going to
43:09 talk about the power of the tongue yeah
43:11 you won't want to miss that there's me
43:14 some incredible things said thank you
43:16 everybody thank you for everyone
