Oh yes, that's who You are. You make a way where there seems to be no way, 'cause it's who You are. Amen. Amen. Can we just, just shout and worship Him? Just give Him thanks. Just praise Him. Just, just be exuberant and passionate. I just love You, oh God. You're the King of Kings. You're the Lord of Lords. Oh God, we worship You. We, we invite You into this place. We thank You as the Lion of Judah wars over us today. Breaks every chain. You break every chain. You open every prison door. You pull people out of the pits today. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, Jesus. Yes. Oh yes, Lord. You are awesome. You are awesome. Thank You, Lord. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, Lord.
Thank You. Thank You for stewarding that moment to worship God like that. Oh, that's what He deserves. That's what He desires. And you know, I just, He, He's sitting on the throne right now in this place. He is here in this house today. And I just, I just know there's going to be so much breakthrough. That there's, because we're in a global shift for the church right now, as you know, with Roe versus Wade and everything. You can feel the Kingdom of God rising up. Yeah. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, Lord. Thank You, Father. That doesn't mean gross darkness doesn't cover the earth, but the light upon You is getting greater and greater and greater. And we're focusing on the light upon You and the glory that has risen upon You. And we say, "Let God arise, and His enemies be scattered." Amen. Because there are souls out there. You can't be in prison and then go and try to release somebody else, right? You can't feel your own blockage in your own stalemate and to go and say, "Hey, God's got freedom today." You're going to leave with freedom so that you can freely receive. You can go freely give it. You need to be able to give it. Because even though Roe versus Wade was passed, hallelujah, it doesn't change hearts. It does not change hearts. And there are lots of hearts that need the touch of Jesus Christ and the love of Jesus Christ. And this is bringing, it's like, to grossly describe it, it's like a pimple coming to its head and it's about to pop. All right. And then God wants to, God wants to heal. I know that's nasty sounding, but the devil is nasty and what he does is nasty. But here, God is here to redeem and to cleanse. And I thank You, Jesus, today. Thank You, Michelle. You just helped us change His atmosphere in an amazing way.
All right. I can be seated. Before I get started, there's a couple of books. If you haven't got these books, I would encourage you to get them. This one is "God's View Today." Phyllis Tarbox is not here yet. She'll be here in a little bit. Her and I co-authored this book. It does have a whole chapter in here on deliverance from regions of darkness, chapter seven. And so that you can take this home. So I'm just going to encourage you today, just, just try to focus on what I'm saying. I'm going to go really fast, okay? Because this is a huge subject and I want you to understand and be convinced of its reality. Because once you see this, once you see this kind of deliverance, you won't tolerate being in prison anymore. We have no toleration for the devil, do we? Not okay. So this, sometimes we just, the reason why we get trapped in these lands, we feel stuck, is because somehow we've been duped, beguiled, or deceived by a lie somewhere. And it's just, and it's not really truth. I know that could be your reality for the moment, but that's only your perspective. And so when you get the perspective that Jesus wants you to have, a throne room perspective, your reality comes into line with truth, and then you walk in truth. Until that point, we struggle. And you know, I hear, "struggle, struggle, struggle, struggle, struggle, struggle, struggle." I hear that term so much. It should not be part, that much, of a Christian's life, right? That we are, our Kingdom of God is peace, righteousness, and joy, and struggle. Not that you don't have struggle in this world, because the elemental powers, spirits, principles, and spirits of this world are raging right now, and they will come against you, and it will cause you a struggle. I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about with your emotions, with your sin, with addictions. Those are not the star. Those struggles have been nailed to the cross, and you are a free person living in liberty. Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty, and the Spirit of the Lord dwells in you. That means there's liberty in you. So if you're not experiencing it, we've got to figure out why, right? Because it's not His problem. He's already done everything for us to experience life, to experience the abundance of life. It doesn't mean a living in the abundant life. That means you have two cars, a summer home, and a winter home. It means that you do not give any recognition to lack. There is no lack in your life. You may live in a little one-bedroom apartment and half a ride a bike, but you know the abundance of life. It has nothing to do with stuff. It has everything to do with the joy and the promises of God that you're an overcomer, and the devil has no way in you. That's what the scripture says. And the devil has no way in you. And so that's where we have to be. So "God's View" and it's got other chapters in there about generational liquidity, all kinds of stuff in here. And it's a little bit of a different perspective. It's $12. It's in the back. We have, you can take credit card, check, or cash. And this other one, which is a good, um, companion with it, which was written a long time before this one, is "Scriptuments." I wrote this. It's a daily, daily vitamins for spiritual empowerment. Therefore, you get "Scriptuments." You know, vitamins, scripture means your scriptures. This is not considered a full meal. These are, this is kind of a meal. Your Bible's a meal. This is a vitamin. It's like extra nutrients in your life. And they're declarations that you speak over yourself to get your mind where it needs to be, and that you walk in victory. And there are some Hebrew pictographs sprinkled throughout in here. I love the Hebrew pictographs, so they're in here. And that's on the back. This is $10. And this one's $12. So that's on the back there. And also on the back is a sign-up sheet. If after today you want some personal ministry from the Clearwater Healing House, which is right next door, make sure you sign up with, um, with Clarity, so I can read your writing, your phone number, and email address. And, uh, we'll get you in there for an appointment, okay? And you'll have an individual. How many have been? How many have been to the Healing House? Okay. All right. We have a ton of testimonies, not only of healing, but a lot of deliverance. A lot of deliverance. Um, people being, being set free. And that paper you have, don't pay attention to that paper right now. Don't be looking at it while I'm talking. Don't let it be a distraction. That's for later. We'll get to that. But I wanted you to have it. And also, there's a little half sheet. I just quickly threw that together this morning because water baptism is crucial to understanding freedom. And a lot of us have already been baptized. Some of us baptized as a child, sprinkled, you know, that kind of thing, but we didn't do it with understanding and with, with knowledge. And so if you, if you don't have the knowledge of what water baptism does for you, you cannot, and could not, but you most likely will not be able to access the power of it. The last time we baptized somebody, they had an alcohol problem. And when they came up out of the water, they had never drunk again. They knew that thing was dead and buried because they had the understanding of what baptism was going to be. You know, you know, and these Egyptians you will see no more after they came to the Red Sea, right? So that's, that's the power of it. And I'm going to encourage you, there's a class we're going to do it at 7 o'clock. It'll probably, probably only about an hour long. Get the, get the impartation of what it means. And then that Sunday morning, um, we will, there's a baptismal in the back there. The very back, there's a big pool, and we're going to have a pool party, and we'll baptize everybody, okay? So if you know people that need back water baptism, have them come to this class because this class is a prerequisite to get them baptized. We used to baptize people without the class, but then we found out there was no real change. With the class, we found out there's a real change, okay? Because then now they understand. Okay. So we're going to get going. And, and listen, I apologize if it runs over today. I really did not allow enough time. This class is usually done in two or three parts. I'm cramming it into one this morning, and I'm skipping over a lot of things. But I, I'm gonna try to, Lord help me, just hit what you need to hear today so we can get to the ministry part, which is the most powerful part of it. But if I don't explain it, it's not gonna, it's gonna sound like, "What are you talking about?" So I need to explain it first. So, um, so what, I guess what I'm trying to tell you, if 12 comes around, we're still in the middle of stuff, you have to go, then just go. It's fine. I understand. That's what we said. We said 12. You need to leave at 12. You need to leave at 12. And that's okay. Um, you know, that's, that's perfectly fine. There's no offense or disrespect. Um, just leave when you need to leave, and not a problem. All right. Let me get my, I have notes here today. I don't know how much I'm going to follow them. But I do, I've been thinking about this, this fact. I've been thinking about certain people, like, how is it that certain people, when they read the Word of God, it becomes instant breakthrough for them? All they have to do is read that Word of God and say, "Oh, I'm forgiven. There is no shame. There's no condemnation in Christ Jesus." And boom, all shame, condemnation is broken off of them. And now they're living under the law of spirit of life and no longer under the law of spirit and death. And then, how is it that a person like the woman with the issue of blood for 12 years, suffering with the sickness, spending all her money, decides, "I'm going to touch the hem of His garment." She sets the place, she sets the time, and she knows who she has to touch. And she makes that decision, and she touches the hem of His garment, and boom, it is done. What's the difference between that and maybe me? What is the difference of John G. Lake, who's who would minister during the bubonic plague, burying the dead and praying for the sick, and they have that spittle, that that foam, that diseased viral foam all over his body, and then them looking under their microscope and seeing that all the germs die on his skin. And he tells them the reason why? Because I don't live under the law of death. I live under the law of sin and death. I live under the law of spirit and life. And that thing cannot survive on me. My pores ooze Holy Spirit and life, and it just cancels death, right? So, so what made John G. Lake, who had sickness all his life, he had crippled legs all his life from arthritis, all of a sudden read that verse and say, "Well, I don't need to thank God for my sickness. He's not trying to teach me something in my sickness. He's saying, 'I am healed,' and I live under a different law." And boom, he's healed, right? And he comes and he becomes a miracle worker. So what is, how are you different from him? You're not. That's the whole point. You're not any different. You have the same Spirit of Christ. You're the same child of God. You have the same blood of Jesus. We have the same Redeemer, the same Savior. We follow the same King. We have the same cross that we go to. There is no reason that you and I cannot access this Word of God where all our spiritual blessings are in heavenly places, where we are delivered from sin, delivered from demons, and healed body, soul, and spirit. Because Jesus died on that cross, not only in His spirit, like the Gnostics used to teach, not only in His soul, that He died for your sins, but in His own body, He nailed it to the cross. He died for you so your body, soul, and spirit would be redeemed and set free and walk under the law of life in spirit. And that's, that's how we roll, church. That's how we roll. That's, that's what, that's the gospel of the good news. It says in Hebrews 4:2 that the, the gospel that the ancients heard in the wilderness, heard the gospel, the all heard the gospel, the world has heard the gospel, but it did not benefit them because why? It was not mingled with faith. The word has to be mingled with faith, and then they were able to enter into rest. You guys need some rest. You need a rest from that word struggle. And I just command that demon of struggle to get out of this house. This house is a house of rest, and you are the house of rest, and this is your Sabbath rest, because Jesus said, "I came to give you rest. I came to be your Sabbath. Enter into Me." So this is what, so I am speaking and releasing a spirit of faith in this house over the word spoken. And if there's just one word that you hear today, that's all you're going to need. You, you may hear blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, faith release books, and then that's all you got to hear. You know, that's all you need to hear. And that, that word, "I sent His, I sent My word and healed them." Listen for the Word of God to your heart today. And, and Paul talks about Israel. They had the Word of God the whole time. They had the Torah. They had Moses. But he's what he said, "A veil is over their minds. Their mind has blinded. There's a veil over their hearts." And so what they turn to Him, and then boom, light shines forth. Light shines. One look at Jesus today is going to change your life forever. And it already has. You already know that when you've looked at Jesus, when you received your first kiss from Jesus, your salvation day, your salvation moment, you looked to His face and you knew that you knew that eternal life had just started to live in you, right? That kiss from Jesus, that moment changed you forever. But that moment should never just stop to be a moment when you remember your salvation day, because you have to work out your salvation with fear and trembling. And He told Timothy, He said, He said, "Fight the good fight of faith." God embedded faith in you when you were born again. At your inheritance, your blessing, to open up every day and read it and, and receive it. He said, "Fight the good fight of faith," because the devil wants to take it back. And that's what you're fighting. You're not fighting to get faith. You're fighting to tell the devil, "You can't have it. He can't defile it. He can't corrupt it." Then He tells them, "Go ahead and lay hold of eternal life." That doesn't mean Timothy, "Go ahead and die so you can live for eternity." He was telling Timothy, "There's something about eternal life that you can live in that will produce such revival, not only in you, but where you're living." And he brought, you know what he did? He brought revival to Ephesus. Ephesus was a seventh wonder of the ancient world with the Temple Diana. People from the nations went to that place to worship an idol, and it was a stronghold in that city. And he preached this gospel, and he had revival in himself. He had revival in his church, and those people brought all their books, all their magic portions, all their sorcery in a big pile, and they had a big bonfire. This city will experience the same thing because that, that temple that's downtown will come down. Why? Because the people in here, if this many people get filled with the fire of God, get set free from the deceiving, beguiling lies that are holding you stuck, then guess what? You're going to turn this city upside down. And it only took a handful to turn them upside down. A handful of people is all it takes to turn a place upside down. And that thing will crumble and fall because no one will go there to Scientology anymore, but they'll come to the churches of Jesus Christ in Clearwater. And that's our, we're staking our stake in that right now. This is what's going to happen. And if you live in Tampa, don't be, don't be deceived. Their tentacles are there too. They're all the way out to mankind, and they're spreading like a cancer. But the head of the snake is right downtown. But we need to cut the head of the snake off. And we cut the head of the snake off by coming to the reality of truth that you are free, powerful warriors of Christ with weapons of righteousness, one for your right and one for your left. So it doesn't matter if you're right or left-handed, you're, you're equipped. You got it. He made you ambidextrous anyway. You can even do it behind, boom, off the back of me. So I just want to encourage you now to grab hold of this. So first of all, this is deliverance from regions of darkness. Now, what is that? First of all, in Colossians 1:13, it says that, "But He has, He has..." Can you get that up? That would be good one to show. Uh, Colossians, I believe it's 1:13 or 1:14. "He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed or translated us into the kingdom of the Son of His what love." And to the light, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. So this redemption, the forgiveness of sin, is a kingpin in your understanding of your deliverance. First of all, that He forgives you there, and that means guilt and shame can't say, "If you're forgiven, what's guilt and shame for?" Right? What's guilt and shame for? Redemption means I've repented, and the blood washes me completely from sin. He, you know, if you confess your sin, He is faithful and righteous to forgive all sin. So sin is part of it. But let's talk about this deliverance. So He says, "I've delivered you out of darkness." Why were you being delivered from darkness? Well, that's a good question. Why are we having to do this? Because the reality is that you are not supposed to be trapped in any prison and any darkness with anything by any devil. He has given you dominion. That is the power and purpose of the cross. And, and religion dumbs us down. You know, we do in our schools, we dumb our kids down. We already can't get that. You know, the devil says, "This cross is too lofty to do. You can't understand that." And he dumbs down the cross to say, "Don't worry, you don't have to fight the devil." Uh, you know, "This life is full of sickness, disease, death, and in darkness, and that's just the way life is, and I have to accept it." I don't accept it. You don't accept it. I don't accept it because it says, "If I go to Sheol, Jesus, you are there. Your Spirit is there." And if the night gets dark, it is light to me because You are with me because darkness and light is no different to Him. That's why that's the attitude. "Oh, it's dark." So what? Light and darkness are the same to Him, and He lives inside of me. He's my light, and I don't have to tolerate the struggle of darkness. I tell darkness where to go, right? I have the eye of the storm living in me. There could be a storm around me, but the one who sleeps on the pillow in the back lives in me. You know, Bill Johnson once says, "You can only have authority over the storms that you can rest in." So learn to rest even in the darkness so you can go through with it. So I just want to enunciate right now that the Kingdom of God is here. What is the Kingdom of God? The finger of God is, is here. And, um, the finger of God is what casts out devils. Tell me, the devils don't have a chance. If you listen to my voice today and you hear the Word of God today, those devils will loose you. Not only will they loose you, they'll run out of here and say, "I can't stand this anymore." I am so confident of that. I am so confident in that, okay? So this, the first thing that Jesus did, He cast out a devil. It was the inauguration of the Kingdom. He was letting the devils know that your throne, you've been dethroned, and your dominion has been taken from you. And, and so we know that the kingdom, we get influenced by kingdoms. We are influenced on a daily basis by kingdoms. The Kingdom of Heaven is supposed to be your influence. Why? Because you're a citizen of the Kingdom of Heaven. You are, you have come to Mount Zion already. You're not dead, you're still here, but you've come to Mount Zion. And He says, "Where are you seated?" You're seated in heavenly places. You're seated on a throne already. That is a kingdom of influence. That's why in Psalm 91, you say, "A thousand shall fall to your right, a thousand to fall to your left, and you will only look on with your eyes." Because why? You're seated in heavenly places and watching. Yeah, that was a good one, Jesus. Look at that guy. And you, and you are fighting from a kingdom throne room, kingdom position, and not fighting the devil on his own terms. When you fight the devil on your own, his terms, when you let him call the shots, when you let him call the battles, he's calling you on his turf. And when he calls you on your turf and you engage him on his turf, you will never win. Because he calls you on the turf of carnality, on your flesh, on your emotions. "My feelings hurt." That's carnality. "But don't you feel sorry for me?" That's carnality. And if you go to that, do you know that worry is a sin? Fear is a sin. It's not something you ask God to deliver you from. You, it's something you say, "I repent of." I repent of worry, anxiety, and fear, because you've already dealt with it. I have, my future is secure in You. You've gone before me into my future and prepared the way for me. What, what be worry? Remember Alfred Newman? Yeah, you have to be old to remember him. Anyway, so we're to pray this influence of that kingdom here on earth, correct, as it is in heaven, so shall it be done on earth. That word "earth" in Hebrew is "aretz." "Aretz" means land. And when they said "aretz" in Hebrew, they were, they were not just talking about the surface of the planet, but they were talking about what's underneath the ground, what's on earth and under earth. And we were instructed, the first time you hear that, you're instructed, "Don't make any images of anything you see from under the earth." And they did. They became the gods of this world. They came from under earth. And that's another kingdom. That's a kingdom below. I just want to read this one scripture from Jonah. If you don't think there's a real existence of it, let's see. Jonah, where are you? Jonah 2:2. It says, "And I cried out to the Lord because of my affliction, and He answered me out of the belly of Sheol. I cried, and You heard my voice." Now, Jonah never died, but he said, "Out of the belly of Sheol, I cried, and You heard my voice. I went down to the moorings of the mountains. The earth with the bars closed behind me forever. You have brought up my life from the pit, O Lord my God." At the base of the mountain, he found a gate, and that gateway was to the very depths of Sheol. Don't tell me there's not a literal kingdom that is underneath your feet. And the good thing you have to remember, it stays underneath your feet. And don't let the abyss open up and burp out its sulfuric acid on you, and you breathe the fragrance of death and say, "I'm, oh God, I'm struggling." We need to cut that battle off, and you need to rise up and say, "I am a child of God. I have light in me. I have love in me. I'm called. I am equipped. I have Holy Spirit." That's why you need Holy Spirit. If you're not baptized in the Holy Spirit, you need to let me know, and we'll, and we need to ask the Holy Spirit, "Come on you with power and authority and fire." Because Jesus said, "It's said, 'I tell you the truth.'" When Jesus says, "I tell you the truth," He's telling you the truth. He says, "It's to your advantage that I go, so Holy Spirit can come." You need that advantage in your, in your life. I'm going to look at this here. We're going to go to Luke 11:20. It says, "But if I cast out demons by the finger of God, then the Kingdom of God has come upon you." So these demons are going, "You know, the Kingdom of God is here." "When the strong man, fully armed, guards his own house, his possessions are undisturbed. But when someone stronger than he attacks him and overpowers him, he takes away from him all his armor on which he had relied and distributes his plunder." I think we need to do some plundering. Once the Lord told me, says, "You are to take and not be taken. You to plunder and not be plundered." That's your position, okay? So we got, we're doing the plunder. Now, the strong man has had his day. His day is over. Jesus Christ is risen from the dead, okay? "And then he who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters." When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places or waterless places. Do you know your 60-70% water? He wants a drink. He wants a drink. What is he drinking? He's drinking your feelings. He's drinking your needs. He's drinking your hurts. He's drinking your, and he's drinking your, your addictions. And you're, you're going around the mountain in your despair, you're complaining. He's drinking. He drinks that stuff like it's wine, like it's wine. Why should we let him have pleasure? Why should we let him have any pleasure? I think we should, we should dedicate our lives to irritating the slob out of the devil. Yeah. So when an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry and waterless places and he seeks rest. So when you're not, when you're all upset with anxiety and fear and worry and sin, he's like in his hammock drinking your, your emotions. He's having a great time. But when you're at peace and you're living in joy and you know who you are, you have your identity in Christ, he is agitated. He is upset. He has been expelled from your, from your, from your sacred space. This body is sacred space. It's sacred space, and it belongs to the very living God. It comes to dwell in you. It's holy. You have to steward this one. I was a chain smoker for many, many years. And I was just saved. And I was like, I didn't know the difference between an epistle and apostle. I kid you not. I had no knowledge. But I opened up my Bible in Corinthians. It says, "Know you not that your body is the temple of God, and he who destroys it, I will destroy." And boom, the fear of God came over me. And he said, and I knew that I had continued smoking, like I was smoking, that that lung cancer was my, in my, in my future. And I decided right then and there, "Lord, I make a vow to You. I will never smoke another cigarette as long as I'm breathing." And I, and that was the last day I ever smoked. But that is how important your temple is to Him. And He overtook me with the, with the empowerment to resist smoking ever again. And I, I wasn't as blessed as some people are where they took the addiction, you know, the desire. He, he taught me to fight through it and to stand against it. And what, what girded me up was the fact that I feared Him more than I feared the devil. And that's, you know, you'll always obey the one that you fear the most or have, has the most authority in your life. So if you're obeying the devil, what you're saying is, "Oh, devil, you have more authority in my life than Jesus." That kind of puts it in perspective, doesn't it? We go, "No, I don't want to say that." But that, in fact, is the practicality of what is happening. When that, when happened. So He says, "This is the important part of verse 24." He says, "I will return to my house from which I came." Which house? Whose house did He say? He said, "I will return to whose house?" My house. Is it, is this the devil's house? Okay. So there's something in there that he thinks he owns, right? Okay. So in Ezekiel, and Ezekiel 43, and you know, um, it says this. Let me find Ezekiel 43. He's, I'm going to read the whole thing, but it's, it's about the temple of God. And the temple of God is there. And there's all kinds of abominations and defilement. It's the holy mountain of God. He says, "This is my footstool. It's holy." This is the holy mountain of God. You are the holy mountain of God. You are where He puts His feet. You are where He rests, right? You are this. But then he goes on to say that, um, in verse, kind of fine. Hey, he says, "By," he goes, "But you've set your threshold by My threshold, your door besides My door post, and the, and there's a wall between Me and them, and they have defiled My holy name by their abomination which they have committed." So what they have done, they have this beautiful temple, and then these priests, ungodly priests, came in, and they built another structure in the temple of God, another structure in there, of which they did all kinds of vile, and the most vile thing you can think of is what they were doing in there. And this was another structure. And the Lord told me, "This is us." We cast out demons, and they go. Every single time, we have dragon slayers in this house. Phyllis is here. She's our chief dragon slayer. But you can't take Phyllis home with you. You can't take anybody from the Healing House home with you to monitor your life, right? So we cast out these demons. You feel, "Oh, that's great. I feel free." You walk back into the same sin, the same situation, and guess what? You have not destroyed the structure of which set up that demon in the first place, that allowed that demon to come in in the first place, which is my needs, my emotions. "She didn't do that. He didn't do that. He doesn't love me like I should. I've never been loved. My, you don't understand. My parents were alcoholics. They never were there. My, my dad touched me wrong." All the stuff we, we go through, and we can, we build this self-pity structure, this hurt structure, this dilapidated structure in this holy temple of God. And that's the only place the devil can live. He lives in the foulness of our emotions and our feelings that aren't in alignment with Him. And that's where he comes and he dwells. And we need to watch. That's what the black breastplate of righteousness is all about. It's about covering your heart that you are free and righteous. You don't have to live. And why would you? Why would you allow broken parents to form you and influence you with the regions of darkness over the broken body on the cross? Why would you allow the brokenness of your past to subdue and overshadow the shadow of the cross? I live under the shadow of His wings. You know where the shadow of His wings is? Under the arms of the cross. And that devil doesn't go to the cross because he knows he hates it there because he says, "Your time is up, bud, and you're not what you used to be. And these are My people, and I gather them as a hen gathers her chicks, and they are risen with Me and they live in glory with Me." That's the shadow of the cross. And so you have to destroy these structures, their mindsets, their perspectives, their lies that are still living in you that allow you to fall into temptation and get duped every time. It's like Lucy with what's his name, Charlie Brown, kicking the ball, and she pulls it out of his thing, or, you know, pulls the carpet right from underneath his feet. That if you don't get rid of that carpet, he's going to pull it out from underneath your feet all the time. You're wishing, you're wishing, you're commanding, you're demanding, aren't going to do a thing if you do not believe this Word of God and come to it through the repentance and the washing of the Word and the blood of Jesus Christ. It is the blood of Jesus. If Jesus broke out of the region of darkness called Sheol into the heavenly realms with the blood of Jesus Christ, how much should we break out of this through the blood of Jesus Christ, right? It is our breakthrough substance that we're going to use today. And so we're here to destroy those structures so that when you go to see us in the Healing House, when you go to a deliverance minister, when you go see Phyllis, and she casts out demons, they, they're going to come back and go, "Where's my house?" It's gone. Okay? So that's what this is. This is what this is all about, crushing down these things. Okay. So now there's, there's the aspect of, um, double-mindedness. And we know that in James, um, one, I think chapter one and four, he talks about double-mindedness and how God hates double-mindedness. And James actually coined that term. You're not going to find it in the New Testament anywhere, but it literally means two-souled. Two-souled. So you could have your soul can be divided. It can be, and not, and I present you, it can be divided more than two places. So let's go back and let's retract here a little bit. You cannot see the soul with your natural eyes. You can only see your flesh. You can see your body. And this body is a replica or a mirror image of your soul and how it functions. Your soul can see, your soul can hear, your soul taste, eat, my drink my blood and eat my body, eat my flesh, taste and see the Lord is good, right? Bitterness. Think of the bitter waters, cause them bitter roots up in your soul. Their soul acts in response to spiritual things the same way your body responds. Think, so if your body has, I used a broken foot because I had a broken foot, so I'm familiar with it. So if your foot is broken, it's not my whole body's not broken. I'm not totally taking out of the game of life. I got around quite well. I even drove with a bro, was supposed to, but anyway, I drove. And then, um, so I can still, still function quite well in a lot of different areas. I just, there's certain things I couldn't do because of the broken foot. So some of you have that same kind of condition going on in the soul. You can function as a mother, a father, you can, something as an employee or a boss at work, you can, you can function well in these things, but there's just some things in life you're stuck in. "I just cannot do that." That is indicating of a captivity of your soul. Something in your soul needs to be fixed, okay? There's a hurt, there's a pain, something that needs to be healed, need to be delivered of. So that's how that works. And, um, and so, so it's just like to, you know, somebody could have like cancer in the liver. You would never know it by just looking at them on the outside. They may not even know it. So sometimes we, you, people look at you, you guys look all like normal, healthy people, but we don't know what's going on in your soul. There could be something in there that the devil is is twisting and changing up, changing your mind about, so it's twisted and not following with the, with the Lord wants you to do. So the soul has parts. It says here in Psalm, um, one and two, it says, "O Lord my God, in You I have taken refuge. Save me from those who pursue me and deliver me, lest they tear my soul like a lion, rendering it in pieces while there is none to deliver." So here, David is talking about the condition of his soul. When things come at him, it's like a lion that shreds his soul and rends it in pieces to be strewn everywhere. And I know people that feel like that. Man, I just feel like I've been shredded because your soul has, it's shredded. And then, uh, talking about double-minded in Psalm 113:19:13, it says, "I hate the double-minded, but I love Your Torah. I love Your law." Well, the double-minded, it means to be in the Old Testament. And actually, literally in the Hebrew, means the divided ones. You were not supposed to be divided. You're supposed to have one heart, one mind, one thought with Him. We're supposed to be in unity with Him. That's our ongoing prayer. "Lord, make me one with You. Make my thoughts Your thoughts, my voice Your voice, right? My hands Your hands." We are so in unity with Jesus Christ. He who joins himself to the Lord is one spirit with Him. Lord, I want to walk in that one spirit. People who walk in that one spirit, their shadow becomes dangerous. Yeah. So that's what we have to, that's the unity that we all need to thirst and hunger for. And this word, this word "double-minded" here means to be split. The pictograph of that word "split" is a picture of a trunk of a tree going straight and solid, then all of a sudden all these branches go out like this. And that's not what the Lord wants. He wants you. God is a unified. I wonder if His name is Ekhad, that means one. He wants to make you, make you one. And then it says in in Isaiah 58:6, "This is not the fast I've chosen: To loose the bonds of wickedness, to undo heavy burdens, to let the oppressed go free." To be oppressed. That word "restart" means crushed into pieces, fragments, as in broken pottery. How many people? I've had people tell me, "I feel like a piece of pottery that's been broken in a thousand pieces." Just broken pieces. That's what that's called, the spirit of oppression. That's why how he makes you feel. And Isaiah 6:1:1, a famous verse, "The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to preach good tidings to the poor. He sent me to bind up or heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of prison doors to those who are bound." That's what we're doing. We're getting you out of prison today, out of captivity. The doors are unlocked. The devil has been threatening you, saying they're locked. It's a lie. They're unlocked. He already unlocked them at the cross. But He said, "To bind up the brokenhearted." Brokenhearted is a word, as another word, "shabbat," it means to be shattered or broken into pieces. So God knows there are pieces here, and He wants to gather them together. The words "scattered," and there's, I mean, I could have read, I can read half the Bible to you today about shepherds and sheep and how they act with one another, and the bad shepherds come and the wolves come, and they scatter the sheep. And when sheep are scattered, the shepherd, a good shepherd is constantly trying to gather them back into one, right? Make them one with one sheep. And, and sheep, we just had somebody here from Africa who, who knew sheep. It was really a good word about sheep and how dumb sheep are and how they are the most helpless creature on the farm and that they tend to wander off by nature. And once they wander off, unless you lead them back, they never find their way back to the fold. They need a shepherd. So you need a shepherd today. And that word "scattered" is a picture of a vessel with an open mouth. The two, the two letters are, are, uh, a "pey" and a "mem" laying on its side. Those are the two Hebrew letters, and it's a picture of a, of a vessel with an open mouth at the top, and it's on its side with all the contents of it scattered on the ground. So today, we're picking them all up.
We're putting them back in this earthen vessel that is you, and that treasure you're gonna, it becomes a treasure in earthling vessels. You see, your treasure's been messed with, and He's going to put it back in there. And He's going to, He's going to be the gluons. That's the new, that's the new uh, what they call uh, that's the new particle they just, the gluons that hold everything together. What a dumb name, gluons that hold everything together. We already know that's Jesus Christ. He says He holds everything together. We could have told him, and you spent all that money to find your gluons. And we could tell you right now that, yeah, okay.
So, so your, your soul can be likened to a flock of sheep. Okay, that's what I'm getting to. Your soul now can be likened to a flock of sheep. And when you go through life, through hardships, your difficulties, you've had terrible parents, and so many, so many people have had abusive fathers and mothers. It's just, it's just sickening. And the pain that they do to children is off the chart. But that, that child, that little soul is trying to, it's trying to maintain life. It wants to survive. You know, you want to survive as a child. You want to be who, you know, God, there's, there's something in you that you know that you, who you are. But all this is coming at you, trying to break you down and crush you. And you stand, and you, and, and what happens is the wolf comes in. Your parents were supposed to be your shepherds to guard and protect you against the wolf, and they were nothing more. Sometimes your parents were nothing more than hirelings. Somebody technically like hired to watch you, you know, like the babysitter or across the street who abused you. They're hirelings. They're not there to protect you. And when a threat comes in, they leave you alone. You don't, no dinner, no, no love, no. You don't know what to do. Can I, can I put popcorn in the microwave? I don't know. I've never done that before. Where's Mommy? Where's Daddy? How many people have lived like that and grown up like that?
So that child tries to survive. And what happens is, those that little, that part of that child runs in fear to protect itself. And as more things happen, and more, because I tell you what, sin begets sin. Sin wants to replicate. It's a reproducer. It tells you that in the first chapter of James, that sin, once it's once it conceived, gives birth. And when it's fully grown, what does it produce? Death. And what does death do? It reproduces some more. And death keeps going. And you're supposed to be reproducing life, not death. But this is before you're born again. And death is being reproduced. Your sin is being reproduced in you. And I just want to encourage you, let the sin of your fathers, of your mothers, of your peer group, do not allow that sin to replicate in you and produce more sin. It may produce a sin of a different kind: fearful anxiety, dissociative diseases, uh, stress, immune system things, things like that. That sin wants to reproduce in your life. And I say, the devil shouldn't have that kind of prerogative. Fun, enjoyment, and you're at your dispense, right? We cut off the sin of your parents, of the things that happened to you growing up, the traumas that have happened to you, the, the separation, the abuse. We cut that off right now. We say that sin is not going to replicate in my heart again. I cut it off. And I release all pain, hurt, and sorrow around it. I repent of receiving the sin as being this personal thing against me. Really, it's really not a personal fight with you. He only hates you because Jesus loves you. And it's really about Him. He wants to mar His image in you because it doesn't glorify Him. He wants you to be depressed, oppressed. He wants you to be in self-pity. He wants you to be in constant struggle and torment because it does not glorify Jesus. It does not make anybody in this world want Christianity because the corners of your mouth are not this, they're this. I got joy deep in my heart somewhere. That joy deep in your heart has to be seen on your face. And you can't, if it's not there, then you can't show it. We can't let the devil have this territory anymore. We have to say, enough is enough. Today it ends. Thus far, no more. You know, Lord of the Rings, "You shall not pass." All right.
So it's a great shepherd. Now I'm going to read, put this one up on the new NS, the New American Standard Version, Psalm 91:14. I want to show you that there are shepherds out there that are not your shepherd, that we unwittingly sometimes follow because we're so used to their voice, growing up with all the trauma that we've had, with all the abuse that we've had, we get used to this shepherd's voice. And, and we can't discern anymore that it's not God's voice. It gets mingled in there. Okay. So this verse here, did I give it to you at 49:14? Psalm 49:14. Uh-huh. I'm sorry. I, I want everybody to see this one. No, Psalm 49:14. Psalm 49:14. Okay. As sheep, they are appointed for the slaughter. Death will be their shepherd. Wow. There's a, there's a shepherd out there called death, and he, and we follow him. You know, he doesn't, it's the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. He just doesn't come at you with a, with a red face, horns, and a fork. You would know enough. Not the f, even a child knows not to follow him. But he comes with you with the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Death beguiles you with what is good. Oh, you need this. Here, here. You need this. It's okay. It's okay. Yeah, that was a bad thing. They, that's you. That's okay. You don't need that kind of ministry that gives you nothing. That is sympathy. That is not compassion. That is not the mercy of the Lord that knocks that thing off you. Right? You're a child of God. You're strong. You're a warrior. You don't need to live in that past. You are born again with a new DNA, new genetics. And you rise up in that, in your inheritance, and you find out who you are in Christ. All this is about finding out who you are. Christ. Christianity is nothing more than discovering who you already are in Him. We're discovering who we are. And that veil is over our faces. Just like the Israelites, they can't read the word because they don't see Jesus in it until that veil is, listen, lifted. And they see Jesus. So we're looking to Jesus today. We're pulling the veil off of you so that devil can no longer dupe you into thinking that you're somebody that you're not. You're not that poor, old, dry person. Okay. So we know that.
And then it goes on to say in verse 15, "But God will rescue my life from the power of Sheol; certainly He will pull me to safety." God will get my, get back my soul. Those are different versions. God's going to get back my soul today. He's going to pull me to safety. And then when we do the regions, when we do the actual deliverance, that's what we're doing. We're pulling you to safety. The shepherd of God is going to do that for you. And we know in John 10, if you read John 10:1 through about 15 verses, you'll see about the great shepherd and how, you know, His voice and He knows your voice. And not only that, He knows your name. He knows, He calls all His sheep by name. You think your parents named you? No, they did not. The Holy Spirit named you. The Holy Spirit gave you life in your mother's womb, not your father. They might have had a moment at night, but it had nothing to do with the life that is in you now. It had everything with the genesis of the one who does genesis. Your genesis is in Him. You were born because He wanted you. You're the apple of the eye. So it doesn't matter if your parents did a terrible job. He wanted you. He called you for this day, in this hour, to be who He created you. He wrote a book about you. And He wrote on that book all the good works that you're supposed to walk into. Now, He wants you to walk in a way worthy of a manner to walk in each one of them. And that means you got to get rid of these lies today. You got to get the veil off your life. All right.
We're going, I got a couple things that wrote here. I just want to say, the truth is, all prison doors are open and not locked. It's a lie that you can't get out and leave. The truth is, you're healed. And we're going to walk out of the prison of sickness and to health. And the same with the oppression of the soul. In fact, devils cannot live, dwell, or survive in the landscape of truth. We have to live above the snake line. Yeah. Truth is light. Lies are darkness. Demons are creatures of the dark. And as we go through our different regions, you're going to see the creatures in these, this land are nocturnal animals, and they live in darkness. When you operate from a throne room position, they don't follow you. You know what it says? But these, the warfare is, uh, the weapons of your warfare are not carnal, for tearing down strongholds, right? Everything and, and carrying out everything in heavenly places. Well, it's not in heavenly places. Every version, if you look at the literal, that it's under heaven. So your warfare is not in heaven, it's under heaven. But you fight from heaven, so that un, so that the things under heaven stay under your feet. So this is second heaven stuff. We kind of think so. These, these demons, this prince of the air, he's got a ceiling on him. Okay? He's only permitted what God permits him to do to go up or not. He can't go up there willy-nilly. He can't have an audience with the King because he wants to go into the throne room. In fact, he hates the throne room. It's way too bright for him. You, on the other hand, can go in anytime you want to, anytime you want to. You can go into that throne room and kiss His feet, wipe your teeth, cry over Him, and wipe His feet with your hair. Just love Him, pour out your ointment on Him, and just have a relationship. And when you do that, you get so imbued with strength and power and anointing that these devils don't like you anymore. They don't want anything to do with you anymore. And they're gonna try to. So let this word, the word, the sower is here. He's sowing. We're sowing good seed. You are responsible for the soil today. The soil is your heart. And let the seed get planted in your heart. Don't let the things and cares of this world. The devil, who would come in, sow. The devil will snatch the seeds out of your heart because you don't understand it. I, I speak understanding, comprehension, revelation over you right now that the devil can't steal any good words spoken over you today. And that you'll walk out of here with a good heart, full of the seeds of God, and you're going to produce a hundredfold. Okay.
So we're going to take a five-minute break. Please get some water, stretch your legs, and go to the bathroom, and come right back in. It's 11:10:53, and we will start exactly at 11 o'clock. So if you're watching online, we will start exactly at 11 o'clock. And we're going to go examine the different regions that are, that we have discovered in the Bible. There's probably a lot more, but we're just going to do the ones we discovered. It is right imaginations. Okay. Is Him imagination? Imagination is okay. Oh, huh. Uh, okay. Check one, two, buckle my shoe. Okay, y'all find yourself, find your seats, find your seats, find your seats. Have you found them? Well, close. All right. All right. I gotta get a couple volunteers. We're gonna take up an offering this morning. That's it. Look at that. Racing for the front. [Music] All right, everybody here. We all gathered. Getting close. So we just, uh, asked you to sow into this good ground. Um, a lot of effort and time and materials go into it. And if you, uh, have something to sow, it's not how much you give, it's how you give it with cheerfulness. So you can make your checks out FRC, and we'll know that everything today, it actually goes into our flowing river ministry account. But FRC is much easier for us. So, um, Lord, we just thank you. Well, we thank you that everything we heard the last hour is true. That's who we are, Lord. That we, um, walk in light. We're Your temple, and You like to occupy a clean temple without anything in it. And we're just blessed to sow. Amen. All right. So as they collect the offering, Kathleen, I think, or is it Phyllis? Yeah, not yet. Almost. But we'll need that. Phyllis will need that when she comes up. Whoa. Come back. All right. You can, you can look at your papers now. You know, Jeremiah, another, there's a couple places in there, but Jeremiah says, "Your souls will be like a well-watered garden, and there shall be no sorrow, no more at all." And you are destined to be a well-watered garden. Now, sometimes the enemy comes there and throws some seed in there that you don't want. So all we're doing is weeding your garden today. Okay.
So King David was a psalmist. He was a king, he was a prophet, he was a singer, he was a psalmist. The kind of prophet he was was a seer prophet. And if you know what a seer prophet is, it's somebody that sees into the realm of the spirit. Just like we're look, you're looking at me, and I'm looking at you. That's the reality of it. And, um, we had a good friend, Pat Holland, he was a prophet seer of this house. He traveled all over the world, um, and everything. And he actually introduced the concept to me about regions of darkness because of his own experience that he had in a vision of finding him. I'm gonna go with a whole long thing, but basically, he saw a man emaciated, chained to a, a dank cave in prison behind a wall. And the Lord said, "That's, that's that's part of your soul right there." And he said he was horrified. And he went and he picked up the man who was himself. And the Lord led him out of the dark cave into light. And as he, as he walked out of that darkness, he found that man been stronger and stronger and actually becoming more part of him. And he felt that unity of spirit. So that's, that's, so that's where it started. And then I've just taken it and to another level, another depth, and been using it at the healing house for quite some time. But, um, Psalm 30 verse 3, I think some of this is on your paper here. "Oh Lord, You brought my soul from Sheol; You kept me alive, that I would not go down into the pit." David was never dead. His soul got trapped in the darkness of the pit of the under earth realm of the influence of the kingdom below. Psalm 142 verse 7, "Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise Your name." Now, sometimes, you know, there's an imprisonment. If you come into a situation, you really want to praise God, but there's just something over you. There are other psalms, it says, like, "I'm in a pit and there's a cover over it, and I can't get out to praise Your name, to give You thanks." There's just something on you. So that, you know, there's a captivity of the soul there. That's how you can tell. He says there's, um, in some of these regions, in these regions or lands of darkness, there's caves, pits, prisons, holes, desolated, dry places, and chains, dungeons, caves. These are all talked about by, by David and the prophets. And they're not places that he literally was in. He was not literally shredded by a lion. His soul was. You're not literally with his body and shield. His soul was. His body wasn't literally in a pit. His soul was. And the Lord delivered him out of it all. And, and a lot of these places, you know, so the earth, what we see in the natural realm, is, is secondary to what the unseen realm is like. But we can't, most of us, I said, you're seer, or that God chooses to let you see, you, you don't know the landscape out there, and you can't see it. But we have a visual here. We see mountains, we see rivers, we see lakes, we see oceans, we see fields and flowers. They are all reflection of the unseen realm. They're all replicas. They, this reality actually is a shadow of His reality of where you belong. When you think about it, He showed me a long time ago, the line, think the animals like the lion or the eagle, uh, you know, you could study them on earth, but they're already in heaven around His throne, are they not? They're there. So they were already created. Those creatures were created in heaven before you and I got to look at them right here in our parks or mountains or fields. So they're, they're shadows of the reality of what's out there. So when we go to these dark regions of lands, you travel through them, and the, and there are valleys in these regions that you feel stuck. I mean, I've had people describe them to me like mountains with caves in them, and they knew they were in each one of those caves, and it was dark. And I have other people feel like they feel like they're in a crevice between rocks and they can't get out, or it's just an open, dry air, or place with no end and no, no beginning, and just tumbleweed. And these are all, they don't, these are all described in the Bible. These places. But this is where the soul can get lost and wander, wander often. And in these places are violence, confusion, chains, and shackles. Like it says here on violence, it says, uh, Psalm 74:20, "Remember Your covenant promises, for the dark regions of the earth are full of places where violence rules." You know, when covenants of violence happen, the regions of darkness begin to move in. When you go downtown in Clearwater, you will feel a region of darkness in there. You don't even have to be a Christian just to feel it. No one goes down there because it's like walking into a black cloud, right? That's a region. It's not of this world. It's a region. And then it says, and Psalm, let's see, Psalm 143:3 says, "Certainly my enemies chase me, they smash me into the ground, they force me to live in dark regions like those who have been dead for ages." And so many of us have had lifestyles or or history stories that that's what happened to you. There's confusion. Job talks about confusion in the land of jackals. He says, "Teach us," Job 37:19. And these, I use different versions to express things, so it's not always going to be the same in every version because Hebrew is a very illustrative language, and different translators will use different words that they think apply best. So if you read different versions, you can get a full of understanding. He says here, Job 37:19, "Teach us what we should tell them, for the darkness keeps us from organizing our thoughts." Or our case. Sometimes in these places of violence and darkness, we have confusion as part of our life. You know, we can't, can't seem to get put two thoughts together. Job 10:21, "Before I go to the place for which I shall not return, to the land of darkness, in the shadow of death, a land as dark as darkness itself, as the shadow of death, without any order, disorder, chaos." There are chains and shackles. 100, Psalm 107 verse 10 says, "There were those who dwelt in darkness and in the shadow of death, prisoners in misery and chains." I'm gonna, you get the picture, right? Okay. Loneliness can be a torment as well. And the, you, you can, your companions could be spears of loneliness, and you could have a house full of them. So it says here, you have Psalm 88:6-8, "You have laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness and the depths. Your wrath lies heavy upon me, and You afflicted me with all Your waves. You have put away my acquaintances far from me; You have made me an abomination to them. I am shut up and cannot get out." When people are lonely and they dwell in it, they feel like they can't get out. They can't get out of it. They're still stuck in it. Verse 18, it says, "You have removed lover and friend far from me; my acquaintances are in darkness." See, sometimes demons are your friends, so you don't realize they're demons. There are gates, there are doors, and pathways to these regions of darkness. Job 38:17, "Have the gates of death been revealed to you? Or have the gates of deep darkness?" So you can see that Job knew that there were gates of darkness. We just read in Jonah about the gates of the netherworld barred me. That he was actually there at the gates of the netherworld. There are pits. Mirey clay. When you're in a mirey clay, I sink deep in. This is, uh, Psalm 69:1-2. It says, "I sink in deep mire where there is no standing and no foothold." Sometimes we get in these pits and we feel in, there's a level of this is where insecure spirits of insecurity, no self-worth dwell. This is a pit. And sometimes depression is here. And it's mirey clay. It's sticky. And it also is used for drunkenness. So sometimes you feel like you're in a stupor. You just can't get your act together. Every step of the way, every step in your day is like, I have to put one foot in front of you. And it's a, it's such a struggle. This is indication of a pit of mirey clay. And we're going to pull you out of those pits right now. All right. Let's go here. Hezekiah talked about a pit of nothingness. He said, "I, he said, you know, I had great bitterness and, and You kept my soul from nothingness." This is Isaiah 38:17 and 18. "For You have cast all my sins behind Your back. For Sheol cannot thank You; death cannot praise You; those who go down to the pit cannot, pit cannot hope for Your faithfulness." So the Lord delivered him through repentance from a pit of nothingness. And some people feel like nothingness is like almost a place of self-sabotage because you go to work, you work really hard to do something, and boom, what happens? What happens in that? You, at the very last minute, you do something to screw it all up, right? It's a pit of nothingness. It's also known as a pit of failure.
The some of the lands that we know of are the, which you're familiar with, is the valley of the shadow of death. David is not talking about a literal place that he visited. He's talking about a place his soul traveled. You know, he talks about paths of righteousness as opposed to paths of wickedness. The word path in the Hebrew is cycles. So you find this cycle in your life. Same thing, wickedness, evil, destruction. There's path of destruction. But he says, "I take my, take, I take my," He took me off the path of destruction and put me on the path of righteousness. So if you have this repeat going on in your life, it could be you're walking through the valley of the shadow of death. And there's a lot of illnesses in this, in this region, especially chronic illnesses, because all sickness is a form of death working in you. Let me read it in the Aramaic, even though I should, you know, where it says, "I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil. You are with me. Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me." Well, His rod and staff are going to find you in the valley today. If that's you, He's going to find you there, and He's going to guide you out. But let me read it in the Aramaic. It says, "Even though I should walk in captivity in the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear, I will not fear evil, seeing the word, my personal word is my assistant and support. Your right word will lead and counsel me." So He, here in Aramaic, is saying His word to you today, if you listen today, when we go into the ministry, listen to His word to you. His word, His a personal word to you, is going to assist you and support you and bring you right out of these places. He's the great shepherd of your soul. You're His sheep. You know His voice, He knows yours, and He knows your name. Okay. And there are cords of death there too. He talks about the cords of death. There are spirit of death, rap chains around me. And some of the things that, uh, there's the land of forgetfulness. This is where spirits of rejection and abandonment usually attach themselves in this place. So we've delivered so many people from this land of forgetfulness where they don't feel like they have any self-worth, that they are invisible. When they come into a church meeting or a group meeting, no one ever remembers their name. "What is your name again?" "Who, what, what is your name again?" "What is your name again?" So, I mean, and I've had people come back and, and, you know, I go with my friends, and they say, "Hi Tom, hi Bill," and they walk away, and I'm standing there, they don't even see me. You know, you can, you are invisible because you've, because you put on that identity. You become the invisible man because you created that on your own idea and your own reality. You made it your truth. Okay. And then when that happens, the spirit confirms it to you by giving you spirits of rejection and abandonment and slander and mockery and just rejection. You see, I'm saying, the spirits will confirm the false identity that you put on your own self. And people respond to who you think you are. If you think you're nothing, they're going to treat you like nothing. If you're going, you're just, you know, right? So we've prayed for people, and then they say they'll come back, you know, "I went to church and everybody said, 'Hi Harold.' They, I didn't even know they knew my name." And because he's visible, it wasn't the people's fault they didn't see him. He put himself in that, a literal region of forgetfulness. Okay. All right. Um, and then, uh, one version calls it the land of oblivion. That sounds a stronger word to me.
Then there's the land of silence. The person feels unprotected, abandoned, someone who feels constantly criticized, and their voice is not heard. They tend to be worriers and anxious. Spirits of fear inhabit this land. This is Psalm 94:17 from the Complete Jewish Bible. It says, "If Adonai hadn't helped me, I would have been, I soon would have dwelt in the land of silence." And then it goes on to say in verse 18 and 19, "If I should say, 'My foot has slipped,' Your loving kindness, O Lord, will hold me up. When my anxious thoughts," and the translation says worries, "threaten to multiply within me, Your consolations delight my soul." So you can see in this land, a lot of worries, anxiety, fear is in the land of silence. And, um, this, a lot of women are in the land of silence just because of the, well, you know, where women are supposed to be. And so it pushed them into a place of no voice. And even more importantly, women who have been raped, gang-raped, this is a biggie. They're almost always in here because they've cried for help and no one heard their voice. And then they marry. This is a pattern. And then they'll marry, and they still feel like their husbands don't hear them. They don't have an opinion. They don't discuss family decisions because their opinion is irrelevant. Why? Because they are living in the land of silence. Once they come out of the land of silence, they get a voice back. And their husband goes, "Oh yeah, that's a good idea. Why didn't you say that before I did for the last 20 years?"
Then there's the land of wandering. This person has a hard time fitting in anywhere. They could go to church, to church, they don't have lasting relationships. They have unconfirmed suspicions of others. They're kind of paranoid. They feel rejected by others. They feel like an outcast. They have a difficult time in the presence of the Lord and do not discern an anointing in His church gathering, and therefore do not want to be there. They become critical. They'll come, and the anointing could be going gangbusters, they don't feel a thing, and they become critical of what's going on, and they walk out. That's a, that's a, um, that's a wandering spirit that goes into the land of wandering. Um, and, you know, homeless people actually belong to this land. They literally live it out. They're homeless, they're vagabonds, and that's what it means, vagabonds. Uh, and a lot of bitterness is here. Bitterness and jealousy because what was it with Cain and Abel? He was jealous. It was a murderous spirit. Anger, rage, bitterness will throw you into a land of wandering and not fitting in anywhere because you know best, right? Okay. We're almost done here. Uh, I'm gonna move on to, uh, let's see, jackals. The land of jackals. That is the most massive land, um, that there is out there that I can find to date. Um, jackals are, uh, tanin, which is also a Hebrew word translated as dragons or sea monster. It means beasts that devour. It also has its verbal roots in the word for desire. Most likely evil desires. In other words, you get a dream, a desire, you work for it, you work for it, and then this jackal comes along and devours it before you get to accomplish it, right? Because it wants desires, even your good desires, it wants to consume it. So jackals are like, you know, they're like packs of dogs, and they follow you around. A lot of people feel that like that, something constantly pursuing them, dark is pursuing them and nipping them at their feet and devouring everything. In this place, they finally get a little money, and you finally get a little money ahead, and what happens? The washing machine breaks, right? Finally get a little money, money is, you need to go get a car repair. That's a jackal in your life. And it's in, it's a spirit of poverty and lack that comes in with that. Stomach issues. This is in Job, verse 30:27. He talks about, "I am seething within and cannot relax." Some, some translations go, "My stomach is in constant turning. It never settles down." People with a lot of digestive issues are in this place as well. Okay. Uh, I didn't put everything. I would have to put the whole Bible on your, on your paper. Okay. It's in Job 30:26 through, um, 29. And you have to understand that that whole, that whole chapter is him describing the fact that he's a brother of jackals and he's living with jackals. Okay. He's, he talks about mocking that the young people mock him, even though their fathers are worthless, but their sons of the worthless fathers are mocking. So there's a lot of mocking spirits in here. The stomach, uh, it also says in verse 28, no, verse 29. No, verse 27. But you got to look at it in different versions to see that it's referring to your stomach. It goes, 20, it says, "I'm seething within and cannot relax." What is wrong with your, what is digestive issues? You're seething within and you can't relax. That almost always causes some kind of, uh, ulcer. You can't, you know, you need a breakthrough. All right. Okay. So, uh, another biggie of this, this is gonna might rock your world, are these sexual demons? Are in this place. The incubus and the succubus dwell in the land of jackals. People with sexual, sexual issues, sexual problems, the visitations in the evening, uh, uh, alcohol addictions, partying, you know, that that craving for that, the rave, you know, these are spirits in this land. Isaiah 34:13, "And thorns shall come up in her palaces, nettles and brambles in her fortresses thereof, and it shall be a habitation of dragons, or jackals, at a court for owls, or ostriches." And other aversions. Ostriches are considered cruel because they were considered cruel animals because they cared not for their young. So people who had no care in their lives have this spirit that this Bible calls ostrich. You see. And there's, there's one that abusing of children. And then it goes, "The wild beasts of the desert shall also meet with the wild beasts of the island, and the seder, or the hairy goat, shall cry to his fellow." The satyr is a demon. It tells you that in other versions and other places. I think in Deuteronomy, they shall no longer often make offerings to the goat demons. It is a goat demon. It is a satyr. You can, if you put it in your computer on Google, you'll see that it is a demon, and it's usually got a hooves animal body with a man's head, and it is a frolicking male demon that is sexual and drinks and wants to party. And it manifests towards women as as incubus spirit. So it's there. And it's the hairy goat. The screech owl is there. If you look it up in the Hebrew, the screech owl is the Hebrew word for Lilith. Lilith is a female sexual counterpart to satyr. It's a female demon. She lives at night. And there are, oh, I tell you, the Proverbs are full, full of her antics. Describes her place with steps to go down into a cellar, and no one comes out. And not only that, her companions on there are all dead. And this is all in Proverbs. And so, any sexual demons are no joke. And that's why in the New Testament, when it lists the things, don't do this anymore, guys. You're being delivered from the dead trespasses of your old life. Don't do that anymore. The first thing, every single time, is sexual immorality. Sexual immorality is a biggie. It will hold you in a prison that will be difficult to come out. Okay. Uh, Isaiah 13:21, "This is the same place of, um, jackals, but desert creatures will lie down there, and their houses will be full of owls. Ostriches will still live there, and shaggy goats, demon gods, will frolic and dance there. Hyenas will howl in their fortified towers, and jackals and dragons in their luxurious palaces. Her faithful time also will soon come, and her days will not be prolonged." In other words, what they're saying is that these are creatures of the night. These are nocturnal beings. Demons are creatures of the dark. That's why when you walk in the light, even as He is in light, you know, you, you'll, those demons can't touch you, right? So don't stay out of the dark. Uh, you might make Leviticus 17:7 is where it talks about the, um, the goat. This satyr is a demon. The adultery is her house is away to the grave, going down to the chambers. These, I'll just give them out to you. Proverbs 7:27, Proverbs 2:17 and 18. This is where, uh, marriage covenants are ignored. She has set her house by death, and her paths at the place of departed spirits. There are their covenants are important, but you're not always, you're not responsible for both parts of the covenant. Okay? You have a, a marriage that's gone south. You've been abused. There's been sexual immorality. There's a lot of different reasons. So I'm not condemning a separation or divorce. In fact, I encourage sometimes, a lot of times, separation for women who are being abused and it's violent. So that's not what I'm talking about. But there is an honoring of the covenant, and you're not responsible. You're only responsible for your side of the covenant. If your other covenant partner decides he wants to violate it, that's on him, or that's on her. All right. But you, so that's not talk, this is not talking to you. Okay? It's not talking to you. But the one who gives not a care for the covenant and abuses it, their companions are the departed spirits of the dead. And I, I don't think those aren't fun. Those aren't fun, folks. Proverbs 9:18, "But they do not realize that the dead are there, and that her guests are the depths of the grave." All right. Mocking and humiliation. Okay. That's good. So we know that. Job talks about the gates that need to be closed. And I just want to give you, um, a couple of testimonies here. I had a guy come, he went through this, and he told me, he says, "I didn't feel anything. Where, you know, was good. I enjoyed it. I was listening, and I believed it, but I didn't feel anything." It's not about feelings today. Your feelings already part of the problem. And he, two weeks later, he says to his wife, "I don't have that problem. Have you noticed that? I have, I haven't manifested like I do every, I haven't done that. I've been delivered from it." He has not gone back to it since. So it's not based on feelings. I have another person, and who came in and said, he went through a thing and said, "This is her quote." And listen, I am not, I love counseling. We do it all the time. It's important. Therapy is important. Okay? I'm not, please put that in there. But this is her quote. "It took 20 minutes to do what eight years of Celebrate Recovery and therapists could not do." So if you, that's only because she listened to the shepherd. All right. And she came into an understanding of what the shepherd was doing. It was her faith. It had nothing to do with those programs before. If she would have listened to them in the first place, I got delivered. You see what I'm saying? It's just this one thing made her, it clicked for her. Okay. So all right.
So we're going to get ready to, um, move into, "I am the light of the world. He who follows Me will not walk in darkness, but have the light of life." So are you ready to follow Him out of darkness? Any darkness that you have come across in there? There, your mic, and Phyllis is going to partner with me. We will be coming out of demons. There are watchers. There are angelic dark watchers that are guarding the gates, just like there are angelic watchers from heaven that guard your gates. There are armies, and they've been trying, they don't want you to leave. And they're going to try to do everything to get you to leave, not to leave. And so we want to, we want to bind those. There's those, they're called strong men. And, and, uh, uh, I'm gonna let Phyllis bind those strong men, bind those watchers, so that we have an easy exodus out of these dark regions. But before we do that, let's all do a repentance. Okay. All right. So can you go ahead and start that music? It's fine. So say, uh, say, "Father, I ask You to forgive me for believing lies about who I am. I am born again. I'm a new creature in Christ. You dwell within me. Holy Spirit is in here. And I stand before You holy, blameless, and without accusation. Forgive me for worry, fear, anxiety, lack of trust. Forgive me for any sexual misconduct, Lord, for lying, [Music] for hate and anger." And just take a minute here and just anything, you know, that you've been dealing with, just say, "Lord, forgive me. Forgive me right now." Insecurities, feeling self-hate, that's a biggie. Forgive yourself. Not been able to forgive yourself. The condemnation and the guilt. Get rid of that sin. You don't need to let it replicate in your life. [Music] And I command every spirit of pain to lose you right now. [Music] And the blood of Jesus, whether you confess your sin, the blood of Jesus is faithful to forgive you and cleanse you of all unrighteousness. Thank You, Jesus. And if you've never said, "Jesus, I'm going to serve You. I give my life to You." Let's just do that right now together. I don't know everybody in here. I don't know where everybody stands, but this is important that we do this. Okay. Say, "Father, I want to know You. I want to know Your Son Jesus. [Music] I repent for not following Him. I give my life to You now to be washed and cleansed, to walk in the works that You prepared before me, and to receive Your Holy Spirit. Thank You for eternal life. I pledge to walk in honor [Music] and respect and in awe of You the days of my life. Amen." Okay.
So we're going to, um, let, I'm gonna let, uh, Phil, let's go ahead and start and bind those things up. Let's go. Lord, I just thank You for Your presence here today. I know that this is a, a weekend of overturning. A weekend that was even in Esther 9:8-9, where Haman's rule was overturned, and the, and the authority was given back to the Jews to defend themselves. And we're here this morning, heavenly Father, to take back what the enemy has stolen. Yes. And Lord, I just know that this is a divine court that we're sitting in. And we come before You in this courtroom, Lord, to present the case, to speak for these people here today, heavenly Father. And Lord, I know that the enemy has kicked dirt all over their breastplates, just like Kathleen was talking about earlier. And he's written counterfeit words over the gold insignias that You haven't inscribed for a thousand generations on who they were created to be for this day of war. And Lord, I know that's when You kneeled in the sand and You wrote those words about the woman who was being accused by all the Sanhedrins, Lord, You were writing the truth of who she was, and that left every one of them speechless and walking away. So today, Holy Spirit, we just welcome You to come in like a mighty wind and blow off that counterfeit identity that has trapped every person, Lord. I just, I thank You for that wind of this weekend of an overturning of court rulings that have been standing over anyone's head in the spirit realm that has been there because of the enemy's counterfeit lies. Lord, we just come up to You, heavenly Father. You're their judge. Jesus Christ is their advocate. This court ruling has already said because by way of their repentance, they are not guilty. But this mocker that has been speaking to them with these lies and trapping them in these pits, today is the day they go in the name of Jesus Christ. And so Father, as we pray, I just bind up every strong man of familiar. I bind up the strong men of haughty, deaf, and dumb, and slumber. I bind up every strong man of fear, heaviness, jealousy, lying, antichrist, strong men, bondage, poverty, infirmity, whoredom, perversion. I bind them all up. And I bind up every named and unnamed spirit that reports to these strong men with the blood of Jesus Christ. I thank You, Lord. We cut off their communication and render them inactive, and that they will go beneath the feet of Jesus Christ to the dry, uninhabited places, never to return. Lord, we're making them Your footstool until the finished work is done. Amen. And we're glorifying You today. And we declare this on this weekend of jurisdiction and ruling that this will be done on earth as it is in heaven. In Jesus' mighty name. Thank You. Let God arise, God, and let His enemies be scattered. Amen. Amen.
All right. So we're going to start our journey. And the only rule is for you to keep your eyes closed because we're not looking at this realm. We're looking at the realm that you're captive in, and in the realm that you're supposed to be in. So keep your eyes closed. I will ask, I will stop from time to time and say, "What are you seeing? What are you, are you feeling?" Of course, you all can't answer me. That's the problem with the group. But I will say, I'll ask, "Are you seeing the light? Are you seeing something?" And if you're, and if you're not, you know, I'll ask you to raise your hand if something, nothing's happening. So when that's true with someone, I have dragon slayers in the house. They know who they are. They're going to come and lay their hands on you. And they're not going to say anything to you because they're going to speak in the spirit realm to those demons that are blocking your passage. Okay? So that you can see what God is doing. Everybody needs to be able to see. And you will see today. All right. So keep your eyes shut and just listen to the words. "It is written." That's how Jesus.
Defeated Satan. That's how we're defeating him. It is written. It is written that the great shepherd of your soul is going after you to seek you out and to bring you back into wholeness. It is written, your night is about over. Dawn is about ready to break, and the Lord wants you to be up and awake to what He's doing in your life. He's putting finishing touches on the salvation when you first believed. The Lord is stripping away everything that was done in the darkness from the time you were born, even from the time you were in the womb, when things were spoken over you. And He's removing it like you would filthy clothes or rags. I'm gonna arm you with weapons of light, and the Lord is going to restore you to be battle-ready after you leave here today as a conqueror and not a victim.
It's time you walk in the design of the designer. The great shepherd of your soul knows your name, and He leaves the 99 right now and He goes after you, the one. You hear His voice. Listen to His voice today. No longer listen to that of a stranger. The Lord says, "I've seen you plundered. I've seen you trapped in a cave. I've seen you hidden. I've seen you under your bed as a child. I've seen you lock yourself in the closet. I saw it where you were battered. I saw where you jumped out of your bed when you heard the door slam. I saw when you when you were frightened, not knowing if this was a good daddy or a bad daddy coming in. I saw all that. I saw how you were ignored and abandoned with no one to guide you, no one to protect you, no one to nurture you, no one to tell you, 'This is right, that's right, that's wrong.' And there's no one there. No one ever believed you. No one would ever listen. It felt like you were abandoned in a hole, shut up in a prison with no one to free you. And no one has ever come to your rescue."
But today, we're here and we're saying, "Give her back!" We're saying, "Give him back!" You do it now. God washes over you, and His lamp is upon your head, and there's a lamp at your feet. And right now, the great shepherd of your soul lights up the path before you that you can see your way out of this region of darkness, out of these prisons, and out of these pits, out of these dungeons. And the Lord says to you, "I take you by the hand because you don't know the way. You've never been this way before. You haven't been able to see how to get out of this place. It's like you've been stuck." He says, "I am going to be a personal guide to you. I'm going to direct you through all these unknown regions. You're going to travel right out of this place with me. I'm going to be right here to show you which roads to take. I'm going to make sure you don't fall into a ditch. And I'm not gonna leave you, not for one minute. I'm not gonna give you up."
And the great shepherd of your soul, He hears you, and He seeks you out, and He pulls you out of these pits of violence and confusion and disorder. So we command those spirits to loose you now in Jesus' name. I also command every little girl spirit of hiding, any little girl spirit of hiding that hid from this abuse, right now, a place where you hid from fear of punishment, even the little boy spirits of hiding, right now, you're not going to sabotage this day. I break and sever your assignments right now. And I command every hiding spirit, every little hiding spirit that came in with children for the abuse, I break and sever their assignments right now. Every hiding spirit, every running away spirit, any little girl or little boy spirit of being lost, I break and sever your assignment right now. Before we even start, I break your power with the blood authority of Jesus Christ. You go in Jesus' name. In Jesus' name. In Jesus' name.
The Lord is right there waiting for you. He's gonna walk with you through this whole thing. You're not alone. You're not abandoned. You're not forsaken. You're loved. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you. He pulls you out of that prison. He opens up the gates, and He comes and He says to you, "Come out and praise me." I cancel every spirit of isolation and loneliness over you right now. Every fear of man that does not that keeps you hidden in the pit, and it says, "You cannot come up." It's like a seal over the pit. And I open up that pit and I say, "You come out." And I command that fear of man to leave you right now. It was fear of victimization to go in Jesus Christ's name. Every spirit of dread that walks with that, I break the assignment right now of all dread. Everything that came in with that, I break all dread that even waited by your bed in the morning. I break and sever the assignment of dread right now with the blood of Jesus Christ. That spirit of dread that got you to say, "I can't do this. I don't want to get out of bed. I just want to sleep." I break that assignment off of you right now in the name of Jesus Christ. I break every agreement, "I wish I could stay in bed," yes, that's kept you isolated. I break that assignment right now and I command that spirit of isolation and hiding up and out in the blood of Jesus Christ and the fire of God, because it brought in an apathy where you said, "Well, you know what? It's too hard. I just don't care anymore." And I break that word curse off of you. All "I don't care," all apathy that would hold you back from this deliverance, I break its assignment right now. Apathy goes in the blood of Jesus Christ. Every root, cord, and tentacle of apathy where you've tried to give up, it hasn't worked, it's taken too long. Those spirits of doubt and unbelief that follow with that, I cancel their assignments right now. All doubt, all unbelief, everything that's come in with weariness in the waiting, I sever it off of you now in the name of Jesus Christ. This is your day. This is your jurisdiction ruling day over that snake line in Jesus' name. Amen.
The Lord, the great shepherd of your soul, He's hearing your moans. He's hearing your groanings. He's hearing your cries right now as a lamb caught in a thicket. And He knows exactly where you are. He knows exactly where you've run to in fear. And He looks for you and He finds you in the valley of the shadow of death. And He goes there to seek you out. And even though you feel hemmed in in a crevice of a rock, He says, "I pull you out right now. And I say, 'You follow me.'" As I put a light upon your head and a lamp upon your feet in this darkness. And He wants you to follow. Mouth. But right now, we come against every spirit that makes you feel trapped. Every spirit of trapping, every imprisoning spirit, right now. We go. Every spirit of infirmity and sickness that has grabbed hold of your muscles, of your bones, your neural system, especially the adrenals, right now. I command you to loose them in Jesus' name. You go. Amen. And I and I roll off that tombstone of misery right now. A spirit of misery that's trapped you in the grave, here in this pit, in this land of Sheol. I command misery that the world calls depression. I command it to go. All misery, every root, cord, and tentacle of misery, I sever it off of you right now with the blood authority of Jesus Christ. Amen. It goes. Hopelessness goes up and out in Jesus' name. All misery, all hopelessness, it all goes in Jesus' name. Amen. We blind the spirit of death right now from even looking at you. Death cannot guide you again. I can break off every spirit of weariness and fatigue on you right now. And Jesus, and His battle has been too long. The delay has been forever. "How long must I cry out to You, O Lord?" I cancel the spirit of delay off your healing in Jesus' name. Every spirit of fatigue, offer you weariness, fighting on a ground where you cannot win.

He's still, He he still hears that part of you that that hasn't, that hasn't, that's been forgotten. And He says, "I find you. And I hear you crying. I find you in the land of forgetfulness." So He says, "I'm putting a light at your feet now so you can see your way out of this place."

Keep your hand raised. They're going to come and touch you. [Music] All right. I want you to see the light at your feet. Whether you see it or not is not an indication of whether it's there. It is there. You choose to see it now. I choose to see what You've given me. I choose to see the light at my feet as I walk out of this place. You choose it. You chew. Just like you chose life. You choose this. And you walk right out of here. And you walk out of the land of silence. And the angels of the Lord are shutting that gate behind you. You don't even have to do it. The angels slam in that gate shut. You're never going back in that place of silence again. But He still hears your voice. And He finds you wandering. He finds you going from place to place. And He finds you in the land of wandering. And He says, "I'm coming after you. I'm coming after you. You're not to wander anymore."

And He says, "I'm going to take you out of this place." But He still hears your cries. And He hears your cries in the land of jackals where you've been pursued and pursued and pursued and pursued. And He comes after you.

And He severs off with His angelic host every horde, every jackal, every dragon that's trying to follow you out of there right now. And He closes the gates to the land of jackals. But He still hears your voice. See, He's still just one final place that He finds you. And it's like you're on a sea and a storm tossed and it throws you from one direction to the other. And He finds, He finds you in that place. And you've been put there because there's been unfaithfulness and betrayal in your life. And I cancel every pain of betrayal in your life right now.

I cancel that pain over you right now in Jesus' name. [Music] And He takes you to the shore. [Music] Your feet are on solid ground. It's a rock. And you shall not be moved. [Music] So as you travel through these lands of darkness, this is, I delivered you from pits, holes, dungeons, deserts, stormy seas. All oppression is gone now. And you're going to be able to advance through any stronghold of the enemy. Here's your lamp. And He's going to continue to illuminate the darkness around you. And as you move forward to this region of darkness, you come to a border. And the scripture says there's a wall. But He says, "You can leap over this wall because I give your feet like hind's feet." And I am here to strengthen you. And there's a wall from one division to the other. This is your final leap. And I want you right now in your mind's eye, I want you to leap over this wall now. Leap over the wall. Leap over the wall. And once you get over this wall, you're going to see the land that He has for you. You're going to see light. You're going to see green. You're going to see pastures. You're going to see love. You're going to see joy. And He says, "I'm training you for a battle right now. And you're gonna find all the strength you need in the Lord Jesus Christ." And the Lord will sustain you. And you're gonna go from strength to strength. And you're gonna excrete in victorious power. And He says, "I am the great shepherd of your soul. I am your best friend. I will affirm you. I will love you. I uh, all your need needs to be in Me. And I will sustain you. I'm bringing you to lush meadows and quiet pools to drink from. I care for you as a as a lamb in My arms. And I carry you out. I have restored your life through paths and cycles of goodness of righteousness. And I removed you off paths and pits of destruction. I'm your best friend, your shepherd. I will always be more than enough for you. I'm offering you a resting place right now in My luxurious love. And you can lay down on these green pastures with Me. And you can look into the still waters. And when you look into the still waters, it's so still, you can see the reflection of your true identity. It's not ruffled up by the storms of life. It's placid. It's peace. And you can see who Christ created you to be. And He said, "I do this because of the blood covenant I have with you." I have released you from prisons and from your hopeless cells. And I say, "Come, My hope-filled child." This very day, I'm declaring to you a double bonus, a double portion. Everything that you have lost returned to you twice over. I have redeemed you by the blood of the Lamb. And He says, "I go into your future now. It is written. And I prepare the way for you. My kindness will follow behind you and spare you from the traumas of your past. My hand of love is upon your life. And I'm imparting a father's blessing over you right now." And the Lord, the Father in heaven says, God says, "I give you stability and I give you prosperity. I will make your future secure. I have re-established your inheritance. It's like you have fertile fields with beautiful tracts of land. Your destiny is back on track. I have restored you to your inheritance this day." And I declare that all gates, doors, pathways to these regions of the darkness are now closed by the blood of Jesus Christ. And underneath you are His everlasting arms. And even now, your enemies stand and cringe before you. And we just, we seal this time right now with the blood of Jesus. And I say now, God, one good word of truth spoken over you can be stolen in Jesus Christ's name. In Jesus Christ's name. You're out. You are free like a bird from separate from a nest. You know, a bird in a net. You've been like, you're like time to fly around the planet. Everybody, you're free to fly. You're free to soar into the things of heaven. Oh, here are the birds right on cue, right on cue. Bunch of little birds released from the net. Release from the net. Just as a word of admonishment, one of the gifts the Lord has given you is free will. That means you now, as a son of God, are no longer enslaved to what the devil wants you to do. You have a yes and you have a no. When the devil comes back to you out of the land of jackals and say, "Oh, I'm going to come at you tonight." You say, "No, you're not. You're in that. You're behind the doors. I'm not in that place anymore. I have destroyed that false structure in my spirit. I have a clean spirit man now." Okay. You see, you say, "No, it's not in here anymore. They have nothing to come back to." But they sure would like to. So you have to war. Phyllis is not going home with you. You have to war and tell it, "No, you're not coming past here. I don't live there anymore. That's not my address." Okay. All right. 20 little 18 minutes passed. Sorry, but we had to finish. All right. All right. God bless.
