Understanding Altars Leads to Breakthrough

So I want to talk to you today about the Battle of altars, Prosecuting evil altars in your bloodline for Kingdom advancement. The Battle of altars. It was at the Battle of altars, Prosecuting evil altars in your bloodline for Kingdom advancement. How many know you are that God wants you? God, you are here on the earth to advance the kingdom. Amen. I mean, you are here on the earth. It's, it's the only business while we are here, okay? It's the number one business of creation is advancing the kingdom. But the enemy knows that, so he puts a lot of road, he puts a lot of house, he puts a lot of roadblocks on the way to doing that. And I'm going to show you why altars are a major standing stumbling block for many people into coming to destiny, coming into breakthrough, and most importantly, being able to advance the kingdom. Okay?

Now, for some of you, maybe the center of altars might be the first time you hear about it. But I can tell you, by the time it's over, you know, you, you, you'll be on the same page where we are. When the Lord began to, as a matter of fact, it was very interesting how Kerry and I got together. My wife, of course, prophesied it, you know, three years before it happened. You know, Katie and I, we're both living in Arizona, but we hardly saw each other. We see each other more now. I'm glad I went to Atlanta. I see I'm on now. And when I was in Arizona, okay, that's the truth, you know, yeah. When I was in Arizona, I could hardly get Kerry. Oh my God, I'm like, do you even live here? Okay? But, but when we, one day I went to see her at a studio so we can do something, and then in talking, we realized that she had been given a piece of the puzzle, I'd been given a piece of the puzzle, and I would realize that none of those two puzzles can work together without the other. And that's how Idols Riot was born. And it was interesting, Idols World was born at the same time when there was rioting, rioting all over America. Thank God. I mean, I think that, I think they're trying to riot again. But come on, somebody. [Laughter] Yeah, you know, and so that's when God put us together. And so we wrote this amazing book. So it's been, but it, but, but it's allowed me to get very close to Katie. We travel together, we really feel this very, very strong. So I want to bring my piece of that, and tomorrow she's going to go in some deeper things as well. So I want you to turn in your Bibles, please, if you can. Now, if you, if you have your Bibles, send to the Book of Genesis, or this, you can just follow, follow my PowerPoint, okay? Amen. Hallelujah. Praise God. Amen.

I did, do you mind in, in the back pocket on the outside, there's a phone? There's a phone, okay? You are going to see at the end, I'm going to show you a little bit of a video of what happens when you begin to deal with evil altars in terms of, in terms of the realm of miracles. And there are more miracles and breakthrough. You know, um, when Kerry and I were doing Iris Riot, we, we, God began to assure us that that the first reference to tumors in the Bible had to deal with altars in the temple of Dagon. When the, when there was a battle between the Ark of God, which is the, the altar of God, and the Temple of Dagon, the altar of Dagon, that's when the tumors appear in the Bible. Tumors appear in the Bible. And, and God began to show us that a lot, a lot of the tumors people are dealing with in the body, most of them, not all of them, but many of them are connected to idolatry or altars in the bloodline. So I mean, I'm really, I'm, I mean, I like to check things out, you know, I like to test God. And when I get revelations like that, so I was in a pick of Zambia and, and, and when this hit me, I thought, the people, I told the people, and I took them in the court of heaven. We took these evil altars in the bloodline to the court of heaven, which we're gonna do tonight, okay? In that service, we probably had over 30 people who got, who, to whose tumors disappeared within about two minutes. You're gonna see the video. I'm going to show you a little bit of that at the end. But it just happened again. Katie, I was in, I was in, um, another, I was in another, I was in, um, I was in a church in Franklin, Tennessee. I want to do, I just write out there with you. I'll tell you about it. It's a big church there called Grace Center. And so the pastor, so I was there, and I told the pastor, well, I was teaching, I said, listen, I said, the same thing. I said, a lot of the tumors you guys are dealing with, if you've got tumors, you know, if you're fighting a tumor or something, many times we found that it has to do with this altar, evil altars in your bloodline. And when we deal with it in the court of heaven, miracles are supposed to happen. So, so here, so the pastor, a couple days, Katie sends me this, "Hello, my friend. I wanted to let you know that we received the healing testimony from the Sunday, Sunday morning service that you spoke at Grace Center. Someone in a different state. Aren't you glad God has no distance in prayer? Miracles can travel many miles." By the way, put your hands together for, we have over 200 of our students online. Come on, somebody, man. Give, give them some Seattle love. We have over 200 students who are live streaming. Hallelujah. Amen. Praise God. So we had to acknowledge them because, you know, this reminded me of them because this was somebody live streaming that had a tumor, and someone from our church texts them the link and taught them to watch the service. As you are talking about tumors and altars, they watch the service and prayed with you and went back to the doctor, and the tumor had completely gone. Come on. Hallelujah. Amen. When I sat there, I felt that there are people in here. Don't have to be embarrassed. One or two people that are really dealing with bipolar and very chronic depression. How many know tonight can be your night of deliverance? Amen. Talk to me, somebody. Amen. So let's go. Let's get into the teaching very quickly. Amen. Okay.

So the Battle of altars, amen. Prosecuting these altars in your bloodline. So now let's go into Genesis chapter 1, verse 26-28. Genesis 1:26-28. In order for you to understand, by the way, I'm gonna define what an altar is for those of you, I never assume people understand. We are, we are beginning on the same page. So I like to get, I'm a teacher, so I like to get people caught up. So I'm going to define what an altar is. But how many know that if you read your Bible, you're going to find that the Bible is full of this word, altar? Is that right? From Genesis to Revelation. I, I was, when I began to do a study of altars, I was blown away to find out that the word altar is mentioned many more times in the Bible than the word prayer. Come on, somebody. Than the word prayer. And I said, God, why? He said to me, because prayer, a prayer that is not connected to an altar is wishful thinking. That's why. So the word altar is mentioned more times than prayer because prayer is toothless without an altar. Hey, that's what I'm saying. That's why even the devil demands his witches before they pray to him, they build him an altar. Come on. Hallelujah. Amen. It's gonna be good tonight. Amen. [Music] Don't worry if you don't like my message, we'll still pray for your deliverance. [Laughter]

Genesis 1:26-28. In order for you to understand and appreciate the subject of altars in the Bible, why altars are mentioned more times than the word prayer in the Bible, why this platform, this altar is very pervasive and it's very, what, uh, um, it's, yes, it's, it's very pervasive in script, in other words, it shows up everywhere. It shows up, what? Everywhere. Okay. As a matter of fact, Jesus' favorite place in the synagogue was to be near the altar. Anytime the Lord was in the synagogue, you find that most of the stories of Jesus in the synagogue happen around the altar. Why? Because Jesus understood what the altar was designed to do in your life. Okay? And so he always positioned himself close there because he wanted to see what kind of exchanges people were making with the altar, who told them what they know about God and what they don't know about God. That's why even when the, the story of the widow's might, the widow's might was about, it was about giving to the altar. Okay? He said, he said, he said, of all the people that were rich people in the church, he said, but you know what? I already know where you stand, that you don't know what the altar is. Because if you did, you would give more than this widow. So the widow, even though she gave a little, she had a higher revelation of the altar than the rich man in the church. So Jesus loves to be around the altar to see how people engage the altar, because if God is going to do anything supernatural from you, it's going to happen around the altar. And you're going to find out why. Okay? Then we're gonna define what is an altar, okay? And then we're going to deal with the issue of I, of evil altars. Because let me tell you something about the devil. I wish a lot of Christians were like the devil in one area, okay? Copying. The devil does a better job of copying God than God's children. The devil is a better copycat of God than you are. Someone said, there's nothing wrong with being a copycat, provided you copy the right cat. [Applause] And the devil knows whatever God does is successful, so he simply copies it and inverts it, and it works for him. Okay? That's what I'm saying. So let's look, look at this. Genesis 1, because there is a law that you need to understand that God established in Genesis that makes altars necessary, necessary, and indispensable. Okay? You need to understand what God did that created that made the altar necessary and indispensable. Say with me, necessary and indispensable. In Genesis 1:26-28, the Bible says, "Then God said, remember who is talking? This is not your grandmama talking, this is God talking. Then God said, let us make man in our what? Image, according to our, our likeness. Let them have, let them, if you are the Bible, or I mean, if you are, those two words are very important. If you're writing notes, or you are God about those, what? Let them. Let them. Those two words say with me, let them, let them. Those two words are the most consequential words God has ever spoken. Think about it. Two words that change everything. Two words that changed everything. What did they change? They changed the relationship between God and man completely. Changed it in a very powerful way that if you don't understand this, you are not going to be used by God on levels that are much higher than where you are. If you don't appreciate what happened there. Let them have dominion. That way, dominion is the word mamlaka. He said, literally means dominion, rulership, or authority. Okay? So let them have authority, stewardship, authority over the Earth. Is that right? Let them have what? Stewardship, authority over the what? The Earth. It gave us complete authority over the Earth. The only thing God never gave us is ownership. Okay? God is a genius. He gave us authority, stewardship authority over the Earth, but never gave us ownership because God wants to reserve the right. God wanted to reserve the right for eviction notice because sometimes God knows you. God knows you. See, God knows he gave us authority, you know, we are in charge over the planet, but we don't own it because sometimes if we become knuckleheads and we don't listen to God, God reserves the right to evict us. That's called the flood. That's called the fire of Gomorrah. It's God evicting the tenants because they are irredeemable. I guess what I'm saying. So God is sovereign in terms of ownership of the Earth, but it's limited in terms of mamlaka. In terms of sovereign authority. On sovereign authority in terms of ownership of the earth is completely sovereign. But when it comes to the management of the earth, he's not right. He relinquished that sovereignty to man. In mamlaka, let them have what? Dominion. Let them have what? Dominion over the Earth and over the creeping, over everything that creeps on the earth. So now God wants to define the word. He wants to make sure that there is no ambiguity with what he means by them. Because I'm sure God saw 2020 America, 2021 America. Talk to me, somebody. He makes clear index them is male and female, two genders. If you want to know what the gender fights are all about, they're about mamlaka. The people who are breaking the gender lines may be doing it because of it, you know, because, because they need Kerry's teaching to get healed from the wound in the soul. A lot of these people, they are wounded in the soul. I guess what I'm saying. Okay? So, but the devil has a higher gender. He can use it. It's the devil doesn't care why. The devil knows the bigger picture. Okay? God said, let them have what? Dominion. Okay? Let them have mamlaka, male and female. So watch this, because God brings gender into the fact, then it means therefore belongs to spirits in bodies of dirt. You'll catch that. Male and female is not spirit. Male and female is a description of the spirit in a dead body. Gender does not exist in the spirit. So once you've got gender, you've got a body. So mamlaka is not connected to your spirit, it's connected to the body. So if you lose your body, we say, bye-bye, we'll see you in heaven. But you can't preach here because you lost your body. You've lost not even Billy Graham. If Billy Graham shut up in here, all of us are running out. It'll be freaky. You'll be freaking out. Why? Because as much as we love Billy Graham, we know he lost his body. Is that right? Talk to me, somebody. You catching what I'm saying? Touch up, touch yourself. Thank you for my body. Come on, enjoy your body. Let's say, come on, thank you for my body. That's why you need to treat that body of worlds. That's why you need your back. That's why God would you God. That's why you need to treat your body good. Your body is the only thing that gives you mamlaka. You'll lose it, you are in heaven like the angels. You can't be here. So God says, let them have what? Dominion. Right? Okay. So that would let them is exclusive. Gives man. Watches that. That would let them is exclusive to man. He's exclusive, what? To man. To man. That means therefore to men in physical bodies of dirt. Is that right? That means no, no. When God says, let them, he excludes himself from the authority structure of the Earth. Watch this now. God gave you the highest honor. He puts you. God made himself vulnerable to you in mamlaka because God could have easily. God could have easily said, let them and us have mamlaka, which means God would never have needed you to do revival in Seattle because he could do it without you if he included God. But, but in God giving you exclusive, exclusive stewardship authority, he made himself vulnerable to your permission. I would miss somebody. Created what is known as the law of dominion and territory. Okay? Let me tell you what the law of dominion and territory means. It's him. The law of dominion and territory simply states that spirits without physical bodies of dirt are illegal on Earth unless they are functioning through a human. This is an unbreakable kingdom law of the kingdom. That means God, because he's the king, and it does not break. Remember Darius who loved Daniel, even when he found out you had been deceived, he cannot violate his own word because he was a king. You think God is lower than Darius as a king? When God speaks something, he has to obey it himself. So when God insists you are in charge, are you catching what I'm saying? Are you with me, somebody? So now God now, as because Jesus tells us, God is a spirit. Okay? God is a what? Which means God does not have a physical body of dirt. If there's a spirit, then he cannot operate in Seattle without needing Darren's court. He cannot operate with Idols Riot without me needing needing Katy Souza and a handsome black man from Africa who looks like Denzel Washington, you know, all of that good stuff. I got them. [Applause] Are you with me? Are you with myself? Are you, are you following where I'm going? Okay? So mamlaka is so powerful. Okay? Is so powerful that Jesus actually restates the law of dominion and territory in the Book of Matthew chapter 18, verse 19. Now, why am I saying this? Because I'm building to understanding altars. If we understand mamlaka and what it did between God and man, and how we change the legend between, uh, terrestrial bodies with spiritual bodies, you'll never understand the altars, evil altars, righteous, and why you need to go through a school called Idols Riot. What I'm saying? Amen. So Jesus comes back. The Lord comes over 4,000 years later. He comes, he comes over 4,000 years later. And what does he do? Oh, by the way, mamlaka is a reason why Jesus could not redeem us without getting himself about it. Yes. If Jesus came to redeem us in the other spirit, he would have been illegal. That's why angels can lead you to an evangelist like Peter, but they can never preach to you. Read your Bible because it's a violation of territory. If an angel preaches you the gospel, they violate the territory. Can you imagine Gabriel, the angel of God? But how high can you get than the angel Gabriel? And yet the angel Gabriel appears to Cornelius, he couldn't preach the gospel. He had to say, go and find Peter. God, if I preach to you, Jesus, I have violated the territory, and God is going to have me. He's going to have my behind. Coming, somebody. Angels respect my mulaka. You just don't understand it. That's why you think you are a little worm just trying to survive life. Talk to me, somebody. God needs. Now, this may blow your mind. This or it may blow your mind. Hopefully, it helps elevate your, your self-esteem. Come to somebody. It might also destroy some of your religious bubble. If you saw it, if somebody says, checking next to you, please pray for them. I know something is coming out of them. Are you catching what I'm saying? You know, but I'm gonna tell you this, God needs you more than the devil needs his witches. [Applause] Wow. God can do whatever he wants to do. He doesn't need me. God wants it. I want it. To God. God is like, you know, I love you, but I wanted to slap you over there. [Applause] Why? Because you just confessed your ignorance publicly and loudly. It's so powerful. It's so powerful to God because it will explain altars. That God said about his God. God says, I looked for the man all over America to stand in the gap so I don't destroy the country. He was not looking for an angel because the angels don't have a mamlaka on Earth. So he looked for the man. If I have to go to prison to get a Katie Souza, I'm looking for the man. Talk to me, somebody. I'm looking for a man who can heal people's souls. How there's nobody, there's no candidate. Nobody, nobody going first, going first, going first. So God says, you know what? I found this chick in prison. My name is Katie. She's, she's really tough. You know, I'm gonna teach her the soul and everything else. And look at God. Now millions of people have been delivered. But if God did not need Kerry Souza, he would have, he would preach to the prisoners. She preaches by himself. But I, but I can tell you one thing. God will never preach to the prisoners. He could be standing next to them. If God wants a revival in the prison, he better touch a prisoner because God respects the law of mamlaka. Huh? Are you with me so far? So let me show you how Jesus honors it. He comes and redeems. And then we're gonna go into why altars are important very quickly. And then we're gonna go in the court of heaven to break some, okay, that are messing with your life and your destiny. Amen. Look at this. Matthew 18:18-19. This is Jesus saying this. Assuredly I say to you, is that right? Whatever you bind, everything. Whatever you bind. Turn to your neighbor and say, whatever you bind. Now point at them so they know it's them. Tell them, whatever you bind. Whatever, whatever you want. Who is you? Who is you in the text? So you see this thing of saying, you know, God is, God is like, ah, don't throw it on me. I went out of my way to make you like me. So I gave you my locker. What I am in heaven, you are to the Earth. [Music] Are you guys what I'm saying? Assuredly I say to whatever you bind on Earth, not in heaven, because you don't have mamlaka in heaven. Whatever you bind on Earth will be bound in heaven. Whatever you lose on Earth. God is very clear. On Earth. He didn't say whatever on Earth, heaven will respond to you. Whatever you lose on Earth, we will be lost in heaven. Again, I say to you, if two of you agree on Earth, look at the emphasis on Earth. Earth is the main constant through the text. Earth. Someone say Earth. Someone say I'm powerful on Earth. Talk to me, somebody. On Earth concerning anything they ask, it will be done for them. Jesus was simply respecting Genesis 1:26 in a different way. Same text, same understanding, just rephrased so you can understand it better.

Okay, so watch this now. So therefore, because my, the law of dominion territory makes, uh, makes it illegal for spirits to operate in the world of men without going through a human. Hey, why don't you guys? I want to be moving the PowerPoints with me. Don't stay on the same chapter. Follow me. I'm, I'm going through the PowerPoint. You're behind me. I just noticed you guys are not enjoying my PowerPoint because they're not following me. It says, God builds an interface. Go there now. That's where I am now. Okay. So what did God do? God devised an interface. Okay? God, what? Devised an interface or a gate that will control the exchanges between the world of spirit and the world of flesh. Okay? That gate, that ancient gate, that what would connect the spirit world. In other words, it will be a platform that, that will facilitate exchanges between the room, between, between celestial beings and terrestrial beings on legal grounds. It's a legal entry point. God designed because God wanted to respect. But at the same time, God did not create you and simply say, okay, I've made the Earth, it's looking good, you know, here are the keys to the Earth, you are on your own. I'm leaving. God is a dad. He wanted a relationship with his children. But he didn't want to be one of those interfering parents. Come on, somebody. Amen. Are you guys what I'm saying? You love your mom, but every time she visits, she takes over the house, and you have to, you have to remind them, "Ma'am, I'm 40 and I'm married, I got kids." Well, you are still, you are still my little girl. No, I'm not. I'm 45. Okay? God is not like that. He respects territory. He respects territory. Okay? But at the same time, he realizes we are lacking something he has. So what is what God did? God is a genius. What he did, okay? God gave man authority. If I say authority, he gave us stewardship authority over the Earth. Is that right? But guess what? He never gave us power. So God is a genius. He gives us authority, but then he retains power in the realm of spirit. So now God is like, okay, you got authority, but in order for you to do what you need, you need my power. Why don't we come to an exchange where we can negotiate authority for power? That exchange is called an altar. That's what an altar is. Is a place of exchange. Are you guys what I'm saying? That's why nobody has ever been powerful in the kingdom without building an altar. Every man of God God used, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, nowhere. If you want power in the kingdom, you better build an altar. It's the only place where you can exchange authority for power. Guess what? Talk to me, somebody. So now the altar becomes God's legal entry point into the world of men because now God. So now therefore, in other words, God designed this world where if you say a spirit, if you see a spirit operating in the world of men, come on, somebody. Amen. Instead of just rushing to rebuild the spirit, find out who let the dogs out because spirits can only appear in the world of men if there's a human attendant somewhere who's opened the gate. That's how God designed this world to work. Is that interesting? Are you catching what I'm saying? That's why even on the fall, even in the fall of Adam, God never spoke to the serpent first. He spoke to, let the dogs out. Adam, where are you? He spoke to man before he dealt with the devil. Look at the James history. He spoke to, listen to the spiritual serpent last. He spoke to man first. Why? Because I know how I made your world. A spirit, including angels, cannot appear in your world unless one of you opened the gate. One of you opened the gate, either consciously or by deceit. The enemy deceived you, but you still did it. Some of you are fighting evil altars in your bloodline because somebody in your bloodline was deceived by the devil to open up the bloodline to the altar of pornography. Uh oh. Come on, somebody. All kind of stuff in your life. Now you're fighting stuff. You love Jesus, but you have these compulsions pulling you to activity you don't want to do, but you end up doing it. Talk to me, somebody. So what is an altar? Let me give you a quick definition of an altar. Okay? Genesis 8, go to defining an altar. Okay? Let's go to defining an altar. That is just after the interface. Defining an altar. Uh, Genesis 8:20-21 says this, "Noah built an altar to the Lord and took of every clean animal and of every clean bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar." Ever say offerings on the altar. Say offerings on the altar. So an offering that is not connected to an altar is floating in the sky. It's also wishful thinking because even an offering must be governed by an altar, or God won't touch it. Burnt offerings on the altar. "When the Lord smelled the pleasing aroma, he said to himself, I will never again curse the ground because of man, for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth. And neither shall I ever again strike down every living creature." Think about this. How, how important must altars be that when Noah, after 150 days of living on water in an ark, when you come out, you would think the first thing this guy would do is, let's build himself a tent, went to sleep with his family? No. The first thing Noah does coming out of the ark is to build an altar. Talk to me, somebody. Because they know why. Why is burning an altar? Because he wants to engage God into the new world. And he knew the only legal place where he can meet with God. Talk to me, somebody. Is at an altar. And that's the first thing he built. This is important. It's the first thing he did. He built the altar before he built his house. Come on. So what is an altar? Write it down. Here is a definition of an altar. Write it down or at least say it after me so at least you can get it in your spirit. Oh, thank you for the coffee. I forgot about my coffee. I forgot. See, Starbucks comes from out of here. Oh boy. When we do Idols Riot, we're going to cast out some Starbucks devils. [Applause] I think those will be very difficult ones. [Laughter] Okay, amen. So when people be like, coffee idol, coffee idol, I'll keep my idol. [Laughter] Okay. What is an altar? Says this is a definition of an altar. When an altar, by the way, this definition applies throughout scripture. You can take the definition I'm about to give you and place it on any altar you find in the Bible. It's behaving the same way, whether the altar is a righteous altar or an evil altar, they behave exactly the same way. Okay? So an altar is a supernatural landing strip, a meeting place, a power station, a platform, a consecrated place, a place of exchange where our spirits, and in brackets, I define the spirits, God, angels, or demons land. So an altar in the spirit operates like the Seattle International Airport. I came on in, and the planes are the, are the spirits landing on the altar, and when they land, they bring their goods with them. Whatsoever it's the cowboy they're occurring, but there has been an altar to land. So an altar operates like that in the realm of the spirit. I will catch what I'm saying. Whether it's demonic or righteous, it behaves the same way. But the problem if it's demonic, this is why we need to destroy it because it can continue to release cargo into your life that continues to hinder your destiny. It's where humanity meets with divinity. Okay? That's, that's an altar. That's it in a basic definition of what an altar. Now, there are two types of altars. Next slide. There are two types, everybody. Two types of altars. Okay? There are two types of altars that are found in the Bible. Uh, praise God. Genesis chapter 4, verse 3 to 5. "In the course of time, Cain brought to the Lord an offering of the fruit of the ground." Someone said, whatever there's an offering, share with me. Whatever there's an offering, there must be an altar that can sanctify the offering. You see, God can never take an offering from your hand directly. He cannot. To do that is to break the law of territory because it needs a legal place. You see, your offering, that's why that's why even the blood of Jesus, you know, that's why even the blood of Jesus. But let me just show this. Do you guys, uh, have a scripture in your system there? Can I get off my PowerPoint for a second? Are you able to show a scripture, pastor? And do the opinion? Okay, can you play Sean on the board? Get out. We'll be going back to the same PowerPoint, but I want to show you something very quickly. Okay? Are you catching what I'm saying? Uh, Leviticus 17:11. Please. You've got to say this. You've got to see this. David goes, what? Okay, then we're gonna go back to this, but I want to show you something very quickly. The Lord just dropped that in my spirit. Amen. Hallelujah. Come on now. Praise Jesus. Now Katie is going to go. She's going to be going deep. You don't want to miss her tomorrow because she goes deep with this stuff. Okay? All right. I want, I'm gonna count up to three, and I want you, I want you as loudly as you can to read it with me because I want something to connect in your spirit. I'm hoping you'll see something. Okay? I want to think that the scripture will crystallize the veracity and the importance of altars in the economy of the kingdom, or in the spirit world, period. Okay? Okay. One, two, three. Read. What does it say? [Applause] Okay, so it's the blood that makes what? Let's do it backwards. It is the blood that makes what? Okay, it's the blood that what makes atonement for the soul. Is that right? So what we are looking for is atonement for the soul. It's the blood that does that. Is right? But in order for you to see the, to receive the blood that returns for the soul, the blood must be given on a legal landing place, the altar. That's why witches sacrifice babies in abortion on altars. That's why you see movies. There, you think it's movies? They are showing you what they do. They're showing it. Even they know blood can only be given at an altar. But then it becomes such as legal power because whatever spirit comes to, talk to me, somebody, because whatever spirit comes to work through that blood that you put on the altar, now has legal rights to use that blood because it was given to it on an altar. God is telling you how it works. What I'm saying? That's why. Are you with me? That's why. That's why. That's why God turned the cross of Jesus into an altar. Otherwise, the blood shed on the cross would have been useless to you. Otherwise, everything you did on the cross, you can't even take it unless God turns that instrument of death into an altar. Then now it becomes a legal point for you to receive the blood, and then the blood now redeems your soul. Do you see that? That's why altars love to operate in the bloodline. Okay? So we're gonna work through that. Okay? So now let me show you. So let's go back to my PowerPoint. Uh, thank you for showing that very quickly. My mom is coming to the end of this, but I want to spend time in activation and praying. Amen. I want to say breakthrough. I want to see USA. Man of God, ever since that Friday night, everything has shifted in my life. Amen. So there are two types of altars in the Bible. And the reason there are two types of altars is because the enemy is a copycat. Okay? Copied how God was entering the world of men, Earth, on legal grounds, and he copied it. So now we have two types of altars. That's why my book is called the Battle of what? Altars. As a matter of fact, the truth of the truth of the truth is the truth about America or any country. The truth in any country is in any country. Talk to me, somebody. There are two populations in every country. There's a population that is connected to the righteous altars of the Lord, and those who are not. And that's why you're fighting. That's what it all. Every nation comes on. Even Israel, even in ancient Israel, the fight was always between the righteous and the evil ones within. Even in Israel, it's what are you ascribing to? Thank you. The altar you ascribe to determines what you resist or what you comply with. So watch this. So, and in the course of time, Cain brought to the Lord an offering of the fruit of the ground. And Abel brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fatty portions. And the Lord had respect and regard for Abel and for his offering. The Book of Joshua says that when Abel gave, that's the Book of Jesus goes into details about that. That whenever Abel gave his offering, the fire of God fell from heaven. That's how Cain knew his offering had not been accepted. His brother's had been accepted. Which makes sense because even when Elijah built the altar, what happened? Fire came. So fire seems to be how God responded to an altar. You on fire tonight? Fire's gonna fall tonight. Talk to me, somebody. We put something on the altar, fire is going to fall tonight. There's no mess with the fire. Oh, I want the fire. You better have the altar. In the Bible, fire never falls where there's no water. So I tell people, don't try to build a fire, build the altar, and the fire will come. But for Cain and his offering, he had no respect or regard. So Cain was exceedingly angry and dejected. And he looked and depressed. And noticed that immediately he began to prosecute his brother. To defend Thomas. By the way, his name is the first homicide in the Bible. Happened because of the battle of altars. Which means the incense, the abortion, of course, warfare is a result of two opposing altars standing next to each other. What I'm saying? So watch this. Are you with me? So that this godly, there's righteous altars, and there's evil altars. I want to focus on evil altars tonight, but also, amen. Talk to me, somebody. But I also want to inspire you. Okay? If you don't have an altar in your home, go and build yourself one. I don't care in what corner of the house. You do with it. Have a point of contact with God. Okay? Next. When I come back next year, I'm gonna go deep on that. You know, when me and Katie teach on the 12 loads of an altar, that one, that one alone is worth the whole thing. What was the whole thing? Yeah. So now I want to show you something. Okay? I want you to write this statement down. All altars are raised by sacrifice. All altars are what? All altars are raised by what? A sacrifice. There's no altar in the Bible that was ever raised. Even, even in the satanic world, they know that you can never raise an altar without a sacrifice. Now, why is this important? Because of what we're going to do at the end of the teaching. Okay? But let me just give you the scripture so you can see how. I want to quickly, I want to, guys, do you mind getting out of, um, getting out of my PowerPoint? Just for a quick second here. I'm almost done. You know, go to Second, go to Second Samuel. Second Samuel chapter 24. Second Samuel chapter 24, verse 16 to 25. Okay? Go there. Second Samuel chapter 24, verse 16 to 25. Is this good? Amen. "When the angel stretched out his hand over Jerusalem to destroy it, the Lord relented from the destruction and said to the angel who was destroying the people, 'It is enough. Now restrain your hand.' And the angel of the Lord was by the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite. Then David spoke to the Lord when he saw the angel who was striking the people and said, 'Surely I have sinned and have done wickedly. But these sheep, what have they done? Let your hand, I pray, be against me and my father's house.' Look at verse 18. And God came, and God, and God, God was a prophet. Came that day to David and said to him, 'Go up, erect an altar to the Lord on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.' Let me tell you, when I was coming here, God said to me, Francis, tonight, I want you to change the people. Tonight, God said, it's anointing for you to anoint, to erect a new altar of breakthrough in your life. How many want to enter a season of uninterrupted breakthroughs? [Applause] Talk to me, somebody. Notice David is under Syria's attack because of he, because of the sin he committed of numbering the people. 70,000 people already died. That's a major crisis. But I want to show you that the way he comes out of the crisis is by building an altar. Come on. I forget what I'm saying. Watch this. I want to.

show you this. So he says, "This go up and erect an order so God, so, so go up and erect and alter to the Lord on the threshing from Iran or the Jebusite." So David, according, according to the word of God, went up as the Lord commanded. Notice, God, God is God is longing to forgive David, but the only place God can accept the transaction of forgiveness is through an altar. So God is going to wait for David. This angel, come on, some this angel would have continued killing people had David not been taught by the prophet what to do, how to stop it. "Go and build God an altar that can speak to what you've done, that can reverse what you've done."

So he goes, he went up. He saw verse 20. "Now Aran was looked and saw the king and his servants coming towards him. So Aranwa went out and bowed before the king with his face to the ground." Now Aranwa was a Jebusite. He was not even Jewish. He was just one of the Gentiles living within the territory of the king of King David. "Aranwa said, 'Why has my Lord the king come to his servant?' And David said, 'To buy the threshing floor from you, to build an altar to the Lord, to build what? To build what?'" Okay, all right.

So altars are built by men. They were designed by God, but built by men because it's you. It's you have to invite the supernatural. If you want to invite the supernatural, you better build an altar. God won't, God won't build it for you. Hey, didn't beautiful Elijah? I won't do it for you, but if you build it, he said, "Say, 'If I build it, he will come.'" [Applause] He will come. Amen.

So I don't know. I went without uh so much. Said, "Why is my Lord the king come to me?" Said, "I've come to build an altar to the Lord that the plague may be withdrawn from the people." So what the plague may be? What? Saw the, saw the altar, who become the platform of exchanging the plague for healing in the country. You see why altars are powerful? They control every kind of exchange between the terrestrial and the celestial, everywhere, all the time. Hey, with me, somebody? Let's continue. Something that I want to show you.

"Now Aran said to David, verse 22, 'Let my Lord the king take and offer whatever seems good to him. Look, here are oxen for burnt sacrifice and threshing implements and the yokes of the oxen. What? All these are King Aran has given to the king. May the Lord your God accept you.'" So what is mesmerized? It's just excited that the head of state is actually on his property. He's like, "Ah, you know what you do when you see celebrities? Whatever you see." He was just happy. In his happiness, okay, he tells David, "I'll give you everything. I'll give you the sacrifice you need to be. I'll give you the land for free. I'll give you everything you need. I'll pay for it." Sounds, sounds like fun.

Except David knows you don't build an altar that is that is supposed to deliver you with somebody else's offering. He says, "You don't understand. This is my problem. I killed this mess. I, God won't deliver me through an altar you paid for because I can't raise an offering for me with another man's offering." So he refuses. And he says, in verse 24, "And the king said to Aranwa, 'No, but I will surely buy it from you at a price. Why? For I will, oh, I will not now will I offer burnt offerings to the Lord my God which cost me nothing.'"

So David brought the threshing floor and the oxen of 50 shekels. That's a lot of money of silver. This guy wanted to give it for free, but David understood. "No, no, no, no. You don't understand. I'm trying to raise an altar to an altar, and I'm gonna, alter that will become a platform of exchange for the plague, for the, for the, for the mercy of God, the healing of God, the breakthrough of God. I cannot raise it with an offering belonging to you. It will not speak for me." Talk to me, somebody. Amen. It will not speak for me. I got you. What I'm saying?

And David built there an altar to the Lord and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. So the Lord heeded the prayers of the land. The Lord, what? Someone said, "He said the altar." Said with me, "The altar came before the prayers." The Lord heeded the prayers after the altar was speaking. Then he prayed. He heeded for the land, and the plague was withdrawn from Israel. Man, I feel the anointing coming on me right now. Listen, let me bring this, let me bring this to a beautiful conclusion because we want to pray for people. We want to do something supernatural in here. I want to, I want to.

So go back to the, my PowerPoint where it says, "The only place." So now, in conclusion, here's what we are because altars are legal entities in the spirit. Okay? Another is what? A legal entity in what? Because it's where humanity meets with divinity on legal grounds. Is that right? So because we are legal entities, an altar does not show up in the bloodline in your life by accident. If an altar is there in the bloodline in your life, somebody built it. Therefore, there was a common. Somebody, men. So in other words, whatever spirit is operating through the altar is doing it. So on legal grounds, therefore, the only place to destroy an altar completely is by taking it to the core of Heaven. Are you guys what I'm saying? So the only place where we can fully destroy an evil altar is in the courts of what? Heaven. And that's why I'm about to take you in the court of Heaven in a few minutes.

First Kings 13. Look, let's, let's look at that scripture for that. First Kings 13, verse 1 to 3. The next one we say, "Act with," actually say in the Bible, "The actual prosecution of an evil altar in the courts of Heaven." First Kings 13, verse 1 to 3. "And behold, there came a man of God, is that right? Out of Judah by the word of the Lord to Bethel. Jehovah stood by the altar to burn what? Incense. Where did he stand by? He was standing by the altar to burn incense. The man of God cried against the altar. What did they cry against?" Notice he never cried against the king, even though the king was attending to the, even though the king was there attendant to this evil altar that was corrupting the country.

When the prophet is sent by God, he never talks to the king. He talks to the altar. And I said, "God, what is it?" I said, "God doesn't break up protocol." Because you think if you see the head of state yourself, you want to come on, somebody. Protocol demands you address him first. But the man of God is not sent to the king. He's sent to the altar. He speaks to the altar. And say, "God, why do you do this?" Is I'm teaching the principle. If you destroy the altar, if you destroy the evil altar, the people it's been controlling are also the least destroyed. The evil altar, and the people connected to it, begin to find deliverance out of it. So the man of God is sent to the altar because the altar is the ancient gate allowing this demonic activity to continue.

So the man of God is not sent. Prophesied to an altar. Now, why would he prophesy to an altar if the altar has no ability to hear his voice? Talk to me, somebody. This alters. So he begins to prophesy to the altar. He says, "By the word of the Lord, he says, 'Altar, altar, that says the Lord God is speaking to the altar, not to the king.'" Behold, a son shall be born to the House of David, Josiah by name. And on you, he shall offer the priests of the high places who burn incense on you, and men's bones shall be burned on you. And he gave a sign the same day, saying, "This is a sign which the Lord God has spoken, because the altar shall be split and the ashes on it up, the ashes that are upon it shall be poured out."

Verse 4, "When the king Jeroboam heard the words of the man of God, the man of God cried against the altar in Bethel, he thrust out his hand, saying, 'Lay hold on him.' And his hand which he put forth against him dried up so that he could not draw it to him again." Verse 5, "The altar also split." Aren't you happy? We're going to split up. We're going to split apart some altars tonight by the power of the Holy Ghost. Amen. Whatever is holding you back, whatever is delaying your destiny, whatever is holding your breakthrough, whatever is messing with your finances, we're gonna break that. We're gonna break that thing. Amen. And the altar also split, and the ashes were poured out from the altar according to the sign which the man of God had given by the word of the Lord.

And the king said to the man of God, "Entreat now the favor of the Lord your God, and pray for me that my hand may be restored to me." So healings happen when evil altars are judged. And the man of God entered the Lord, and the king's hand was restored. Someone's going to get healed tonight. Became as it was before. It became as it was before. Amen. It became as it was before. I mean, amen. How many like you? How many? How many would like to feel in your body like you used to feel before? How many would like to feel in your body not as secular as you came tonight? I mean, when I walk out of this place feeling better than you came in, because God can restore your body to it, to where it was before. Amen.

Now, the, they are. Let me give you now. So let me give you the signs of an evil altar that's been judged. What are the signs? They have, there are about five signs of an evil altar. One is, once we judge five signs. Why am I saying this? Because that's what you have to look at. What you have to look forward to before we go in the court and pray and do what we got to do tonight. Amen.

Number one, the human attendant to the evil altar loses power or the ability to influence or control others using the evil altar's voice. Come on, somebody. So that means when the evil altar in your bloodline is judged, talk to me, somebody. Whatever demonic powers were operating from it, lose power over your family. You know, I recently, I mean, we African people in the court of Heaven, talk to me, somebody, and dealt with an altar of addiction in their life. And when we broke it, they, they got back to us. That other family members wouldn't even know about it, began to get out of their addictions. [Applause] Come on. [Applause]

When an evil altar is judged in your bloodline, supernatural power shifts from the evil altar to you. Talk to me, somebody. Amen. Come on, somebody. Supernatural power saved from the evil altar to you. Okay. As a matter of fact, as a matter of fact, the exact opposite of what you are going through is what begins to happen. [Applause]

Number, number three, God's powers place the evil altar into pieces, making future use by anyone impossible. Talk to me, somebody. When God destroys that evil altar, nobody's going to put it back again. Amen. You see, many of us, many, many of us, many, many of us believers are like Gideon. We love the Lord. We've had the call of God. We want to save Jesus, but we want to run in, we want to run into the battlefield to do our destiny, but to ignore the altar in our father's house. Gideon was told in Judges chapter six by God. Said, "Even though, even though the genuine face-to-face encounter with God, God said to him, 'Even though now you have a personal altar of consecration, we have a relationship, we can talk to each other. If you're gonna do your destiny, do not do it while ignoring your altar in your family.'" So he was taught by God. God, tonight, whatever you have to do, it. "Go and destroy the altar of your father's house." Why? Because if you leave that thing, if you leave that thing intact, it's gonna blindside you in the middle of your breakthrough. It's going to blindside you, and before you know it, it will pull you into a compromising position and say, "How did I get here? Things were going so fine. How did I get up here?" Because we left the evil altar in your blood and dealt with. But we're going to do with that tonight.

The power of number four, the power of sickness and witchcraft are completely broken when an evil altar is destroyed. Amen. The power, amen, of sickness and witchcraft are completely broken. That means God's healing power is released to heal people who were previously infected by the evil altar. Finally, number five, this is my favorite. My favorite. I like all five, but I love this one. God turns yesterday's ashes into something beautiful. [Applause] When the ashes from the altar fall to the ground, wow. Amen. I'm in love that. Come on, somebody. Give God a praise in the house.
