If there’s anything the challenging chapter of 2020 taught us, it’s that God isn’t here for our entertainment; He’s here to change us! And sometimes, He has to take us the long way around so that we can redefine ourselves under a Kingdom mentality. Why have you been asking God to change your life yet ignore Him when He tries to change you? Here’s the thing: If God can transform you, YOU can change your situation. Did you get that? God is dropping you into a wonderful atmosphere of change now where anything can happen — but you cannot entertain your old ways! If there’s one thing that you glean from 2020, understand that transformation blossoms in the place where confirmation and consecration meet. Here’s to a new you!
[Music]
ladies and gentlemen
brothers and sisters it is
not a light responsibility
that i carry on my shoulders tonight to
be an oracle of god
on the precipice of a new year as we as
believers reflect on the past and
prepare for the future
the impetus of this moment is vitally
important
so much so that people are logged in
from all over the world
to hear what thus saith the lord
after much prayer and supplication and
laying before
god to hear exactly what he would have
me share with you tonight
he has directed me to first samuel
chapter 10
verse number one through seven so that
you and i could deliberate over the word
of god
on the eve of our future
[Laughter]
we’re about to be birthed into a new
future
a switch of change is about to happen
not just because of the date on the
calendar but because
of all the things that prepared us for
this moment that preceded the date on
the calendar
that’s what god is going to speak to us
about tonight
as we open up the word of god again
first samuel chapter 10 verse 1 through
7. then
samuel took a flask of oil and poured it
on saul’s head
and kissed him saying
has not the lord anointed you ruler over
his inheritance
when you leave me today you will meet
two men near rachel’s tomb
at zelda on the border of benjamin
they will say to you the donkeys you set
out to look for
have been found and now your father has
stopped thinking about them
and is worried about you
he is asking what shall i
do about my son
then you will go on from there until you
reach the great tree
of tabor three men going up
to worship god at bethel will meet you
there one
will be carrying three young goats
another
three loaves of bread and another a skin
of wine they will greet you and offer
you
two loaves of bridge which you will
accept from them after that you will go
to gilbert
of god where there is a philistine
outpost as you approach the town
you will meet a procession of prophets
listen to this you will meet
a procession of prophets coming down
from the high place with liars and
timbrels
timbrels pipes and harps being played
before them
and they will be prophesying
good god of body they will be when you
meet them they’re going to be
prophesying
when you meet them they’re going to be
playing on instruments
when you meet them they’re going to be
moving in the spirit of god and the
spirit of the lord will come
powerfully upon you and you
will prophesy and you will be
changed into a
different person let me read that one
again
the spirit of the lord will come
powerfully upon you and you will
prophesy
with them and you will be changed
into a different person verse number
seven
once these signs are fulfilled
do whatever your hand
i’m gonna say that again once these
signs
are fulfilled do whatever
your hands find to do
for god is
with you
may the lord add a blessing to the
reading of his word
i want to talk to you tonight about the
atmosphere
of change the atmosphere
of change can you feel it we are in the
atmosphere of change where we stand
right now your spirit knows
that we’re in the atmosphere of change
the news outlets all know that we’re in
the atmosphere
of change they can’t prepare too far
ahead because we’re in the atmosphere
of change the government knows they
don’t know what to do or what to say
what to implement what not them
because we are in the atmosphere of
change everything is moving and moving
and moving
there is an atmosphere
of change bless this word o god in jesus
name amen you may be seated
i was listening the other day and some
native americans
and it was quite educational because i
have heard a lot of
educational material and studied a lot
of educational material
about native americans but it wasn’t
written by native americans
and it makes a lot of difference where
who wrote the information
that you call truth because truth is a
relative thing you know
there’s a perspective on truth and so
the native americans as i studied them
in school
we saw them as one group of people one
broad brush we stroke them all with that
one broad brush
and we put them in a category as an
ethnicity
amongst others we see them as one group
but it’s far more complex as they begin
to talk about how they see themselves
because let me tell you
it’s not so important how other people
see you what really
matters is how you see yourself
they see themselves as a collection of
nations
i.e they call the sioux nation
or the the blackfoot nation they have
different nations they do not see them
as one category but in this country we
have a tendency
to describe people by colors thereby
relegate them to groups
see them as monolithic give them a
corporate name
they lose their individual identity and
they fall into the abyss
of how other people see them
that is not just true now that was true
over 400 and some years ago
when my ancestors came to this country
it was also true then
they did not get on the boat as one
people they got on the boat as many
different people
and in the process of getting on the
boat they were on the people on the boat
with people
who were the same color but were not the
same kind
they didn’t speak the same language they
didn’t have the same traditions
they didn’t need the same foods they
didn’t have the same religion
but they were forced together
placed in the bottom of a ship
sold like commodity items and all of a
sudden they had an
enemy above them in the slave masters
but they were also surrounded by enemies
with them
because they saw themselves as tribes
not one group of people so african
americans then
become an amalgamation of many diverse
tribes that were forged together
into becoming one people and all of the
trauma
associated with being forced into
oneness
against your will perpetuates itself for
generation
that’s another subject to get into
altogether think of my african brothers
who did not go over on the boat who
stayed on the continent of africa
what were besieged by the europeans and
the dutch
and the europeans all came down to take
over the land and in the process
of dividing the land they split how
my african brothers saw themselves
because they saw themselves
tribally as europa they saw themselves
as tribes as zulus they saw themselves
as tribes not necessarily defined by
land but by language and culture
they moved nomadically from place to
place
identifying themselves with tribes they
were
like my indian brothers they were
nations
nomadic nations moving throughout the
earth
that had been overcome by a people who
saw the value of the land
and not the value of the people so then
as they begin to split up the land so
they could take all the treasures
out of the land according to the regions
and who owned this region and who owned
that region
colonialism came in and drew a line
right down through the middle of tribes
splitting families apart splitting
traditions apart
they were split into people groups and
all of a sudden we had the birthing
of many nations a hundred years ago
there was no nigeria
120 years ago there was no ghana 70
years ago there was no ghana
there was no kenya 100 years ago these
are all
terms that were infused upon
many many nations of people who are now
having to design
a new form of government around how
other people perceive them
so consequently when you go to africa
you have got
kings over tribes coexisting with
presidents over countries
because even though this way of life is
infused upon them
it takes generations and generations to
finally bring about a shift in a culture
where they fully accept or redefine
themselves
because redefining yourself whether you
are in africa or
australia or europe or the north pole
is a difficult thing to do
you must then come to realize and to
understand that africa
has 2 200 different languages
on the continent of africa alone you
must understand
that our nation recognizes 550 different
tribes in the united states of native
americans
but we refer to them as one people and
when people come over to visit us from
africa
americans and african-americans all
refer to them as
africans as if africa were a country
and not a continent so we are
wrestling between how people see you
and how do you see yourself
we’re also grappling with re-evaluating
and re-understanding yourself
in the light of transition there is
transition going on here
massive change going on going on in
america
going on in africa going on around the
world and
it is going on in our text
in our texts israel is going through the
turbulence
of understanding itself having been
saturated by 400 years of slavery they
were actually in egypt
430 years 400 years of which were
slavery
years and slavery had demoralized them
and had stripped them
of their identity their sense of who
they were and where they were and god
leads him back to the promised land
and he takes them the long way because
he knows it’s going to take a long time
for them to redefine themselves you
don’t wash away
400 years in four minutes you don’t wash
away 400 years in four days
40 years they march through the
wilderness
just beginning to grasp what it is like
to have
kingdom mentality kingdom mentality
because you see our god
is a kingdom thinker he is a kingdom the
word kingdom
means king’s domain he thinks in terms
of
dominions and territories and god is a
king
so he thinks like a king and the word
kingdom is an amalgamation
of the king and the domain and every
king was known
by his dominion or his territory so
because god thinks like a king
and he created adam in his likeness who
thought like a king
god had to give him a dominion so he
could act like a king
so he could hold on to his likeness of
god so god says to him be fruitful
multiply replenish subdue watch this
and have dominion i want you to be like
me
i want you to walk around like me i want
you to understand who you are
large and in charge i want you to have
dominion
i want you to have a kingdom mentality
god’s will for his people has never
changed
he has always been a theocratic uh
philosophical god he has always seen
himself as king
whether you’re talking about the garden
of eden or ultimately in the book of
revelations
the millennial reign of christ god has
always seen himself
seated upon the throne high
and lifted up the auspicious one
the sovereign of days the mighty god the
prince
of peace the everlasting father he said
heaven is my
throne and earth is my footstool i
rest my feet on your planet
that’s how big our god is he sits
on the circle of the earth he has all
power
in his head i am that i am i can do
whatever i want to do whenever i want to
do it
because i’m god and besides me there is
no other
and while you struggle to figure out who
you are i am clear
on who i am besides me
there is no other i look for another god
and i could find no other god but myself
and i concluded i alone have god
besides me there is no other
it’s not about which god are you praying
to there are no other gods for me i
don’t own them god good god almighty
this is the god mentality the kingdom
mentality and god is struggling
to get a kingdom mentality on an
oppressed people
and so am i
the struggle is to get an oppressed
people to redefine
how they see themselves and to
understand themselves
in the light of who they are now
and this struggle has continued long
past adam long past
abram long past moses leading the
children of israel out of egypt
and it continues to perpetuate itself
because when
the truth of the matter is can i take my
time tonight
the truth of the matter is when god led
them out of egypt
he was setting up the kingdom at mount
sinai
when he gave them the ten commandments
and he gave them the judgments
and the sacraments god was giving them
his constitution
this is going to be your constitution
this is going to be your rules and
regulation
this is going to be you are going to be
my people and i am going to be your
god he had clearly defined how it was
going to be
after 40 years in the wilderness and a
new nation has grown up
the new nation lusts to be like other
nations
they they they picked out judges
in lieu of kings because god saw himself
as the king so when you read the book of
judges
you are reading judges as magistrates
and principalities
that were up under the sovereign god he
alone was
king but the people kept saying
we want a king like the other people
have so that we can be
like them they wanted a man as king
they wanted somebody that was tantamouth
to other nations and cultures so that
they could refer to a king
and what they were doing unbeknownst to
them was rejecting
god as king they
did it in the old testament they did it
in the garden of eden
adam rejected god as king when he
was seduced by eve into obeying
satan he rejected god and lost the
dominion
they did it in the wilderness they
rejected god as
king they’re doing it now in the book of
judges
they’re rejecting god as king and
consequently
god succumbs to their requests because
god will not
rule you dictatorially and take away
the free will he gave you so god says
all right i will collaborate with you if
you want a man
as king i will give you a king
this text that we’re reading is a
volatile text
it’s a very volatile text it’s a
volatile text
because it is a transition of a people
who are trying to
understand who they are they’ve been
slave for 400 years
now they’re liberated they are related
they are interconnected
but they are also tribal there are 12
tribes
who came out of the 12 sons of jacob
have become the 12
tribes of israel they understand
themselves
as tribes but they struggle to see
themselves
as a kingdom watch what i’m saying to
you
now after they have besought god
and petitioned him for a king god
succumbs to their requests
and speaks to samuel now
i don’t want to leave you the impression
that god was taken by surprise
because god already knew what they were
going to do before they did it
that’s why he wouldn’t allow hannah’s
womb to be opened up
because he wanted her to have a son and
prophesied through samuel
at his calling you’re going to do things
that cause
both ears of them that hear it to begin
to tingle
and one of those things is what he is
doing
right now when he approaches
saul with that oil it is a powerful
cataclysmic
moment of connectivity because when he
comes at him
with the oil he is anointing the
first king of israel
the first human king of israel
he anoints saul to be king
not only according to the will of the
people but god
knew it was going to happen and it could
not happen without god
because only a sovereign can transfer
power
you can’t just make me a king if you
don’t have any power
you have to have the power to make me
something and so
god said if i don’t do it you can’t do
it since i
am your king i will transfer
power to him he anoints samuel
for this cause came you out of your
mother’s womb
to start a succession of
kings in the earth because you’re going
to be my prophet
and that guy over there the son of kish
that tall one that seven foot nine guy
over there that guy that stood ahead and
shoulders above
everybody else the one whose shoulders
was broad and back was straight
and he looks like a king i am going to
make
him a king and when samuel
saw saul his one job
was to make saul see who he was
for saul did not understand himself as a
king and now
he has to redefine himself within the
context
of how god sees him saul only sees
himself
as the son of kiss but now
he has to see himself as the king of
israel and when samuel walks
over to him with the oil he anoints
him to be king understand that the
anointing to be king
is falling on saul when there is chaos
in the kingdom the chaos in the kingdom
is described
in the last verse of the book of judges
when the bible says
and there was no king in israel and
every man did what was right
in his own eyes and anytime everybody
does whatever is right
in their own eyes it’s gonna be chaos
we are living in chaos right now because
we are living
in a time that everything’s okay you can
do whatever you want to do
you can believe whatever you want to
believe you can say whatever you want to
say
everybody’s doing their own thing and
it’s a sign
of a chaotic society that has lost its
compass
we’re in chaos and our streets are on
fire
we’re in chaos and on christmas morning
they’re blowing up downtown cities we’re
in
chaos because our children are not safe
in school
shot down like dog we’re in chaos
because we are running from a virus we
cannot even
see we are in chaos
because the church has given up its role
for political power where entails
a complete identity crisis how bad you
how dare you talk about people who are
sexually confused
when you’re theologically confused you
don’t even know you’re the church
you’re the church you’re not a party
you’re the church
how dare you talk about somebody being
confused
you don’t even know who you are it is in
this
chaos that this text
reaches out to us watching god
bringing order out of absolute care
what i want you to see first is that
chaos
will never stop kingdom
[Music]
[Laughter]
that the kingdom will always prevail
regardless of the chaos
for thousands and thousands and
thousands of years
neither crosses nor lions dens
nor snake pits have eradicated the
kingdom
the kingdom has survived plagues and
wars
pestilence and disease chaos a kingdom
has survived
the kingdom has survived conquerors
the kingdoms the kingdom has survived
hitler and the nazis the kingdom has
survived
all types of atrocities the kingdom has
always survived
so you see they’re all flowing in the
midst of the chaos
the oil is flowing and the chaos is
occurring the oil
is flowing in the chaos is the flow but
the oil is still flowing
somebody lift your hands because the oil
is still flowing
you may be broke but the oil is still
flowing you may have lost the loved one
but the oil is still flowing
your heart might be broken but the oil
is still flowing you may have had to
move in with your mama but the oil
is still flowing and you need to praise
it because we’re coming into a realm of
glory
where the oil is going to flow tonight
and touch your life
in a supernatural way the oil is flowing
the oil
is flowing the oil is flowing the oil is
flowing the oil is flowing the oil is
flowing
the oil is flowing the oil is flowing
the oil is flowing the oil is flowing
the oil is flowing
the oil is flowing the oil is flowing
that’s how that matters
[Music]
doesn’t matter the date on your calendar
it doesn’t matter when the clock strikes
12.
the only thing that matters is that the
oil is flowing
you can change dates you can change
years
you can change clothes but if you don’t
get it this all
you won’t have a new nothing
you just got another date on the old you
and so when god gets ready to bring
change
he didn’t bring fireworks he doesn’t
send balloons
he doesn’t blow whistles or kiss
strangers in clubs
when god gets ready to bring about a
change
you’ll always know it because when god
is about to change something
the whole will start flowing how
i feel a flow in the holy ghost i feel a
flower
[Music]
and so we’re standing here in the middle
of chaos
and the prophet is walking through the
chaos
and he’s walking them from a theocracy
to a monarchy and he’s walking them from
a theocracy
into a monarchy and he’s doing it with
the flow
of the oh somebody said let it flow
somebody say let it flow
type online let it flow speak it out
tweet it out text it out sit it through
everything let it flow let it flow let
it flow
if you’re sick let it flow if you’re
broke let it flow if you hurt let it
flow if you’re wounded let it flow
if you’re angry let it flow if you’re
upset let it flow if you adopt it let it
flow
if you’re pregnant let it flow let it
flow
because there can be no change
until the oil flows
the flowing of the oil is the indication
of the change the oil is symbolic of the
holy spirit
and whenever the holy spirit moves there
will be change
there was darkness until the holy spirit
moved whenever the spirit moves it will
be
changed the church wasn’t born until the
holy ghost moved
the holy ghost moving is a sign of
change it’s
always a change mary wasn’t pregnant to
the holy ghost’s move
whenever the holy ghost moves it will be
changed she was a virgin one moment and
a mother the next
the holy ghost moved there was a change
whatever the spirit god moved
that would be god is not just moving for
your entertainment
god is not just moving for your
enjoyment god is not here to entertain
you
on new year’s eve he is here to change
you
[Music]
he is not here to be your santa claus
and look at your list of what you want
for this year
you’re wanting god to change your
dominion and god is wanting to change a
king
how dare you ask god to change your life
while you ignore him when he’s trying to
change you
samuel didn’t come to anoint the ground
that was a mistake of colonialism they
valued the ground more than they did the
people
god didn’t love the ground god
loved the people and so the oil doesn’t
come to the ground
the oil comes to the head
now being anointed is a messy business
oh look at somebody say it’s a messy
business
being anointed is a messy business now
when you come to church now
and we anoint you with oil it’s not a
messy business we just take a little
drop
and we make a little cross on your head
and it’s a nice little neat little
business
but in the bible days when they anointed
you with all
it was a messy business they poured the
vial of oil
down on your head it dripped onto your
beers
it ruined your clothes it fell all the
way down to your skirts
being annoyed
[Music]
was a messy business this is a messy
anointing
there’s no way you can be get anointed
and keep it a secret this is a messy
anointing
there’s no way you can be this anointed
and keep it to yourself
this is a messy anointing there’s no way
you can keep your composure and be this
anointed
this is a messy anointing when god’s
anointing
gets on you it’ll mess your stuff up
it’ll mess your plans up intimate your
routine of international personality up
it’ll make your rituals up when god
anoints you
it’s a messy anointing samuel pulls all
from the flask
onto the head uh samuel pulls
the oil onto the head of saul and saul
is
drenched drenched
drenched dreads me oh god
saturate me oh god permeate me with your
spirit
i apologize for inviting you into my
stuff but not into my business
go ahead and mess with me god wants to
mess with you tonight
i know this is not the god you expected
you wanted the god that was taking
orders curbside service for 2021.
what would you like to have that’s not
the god you got
god is not going to change your year and
overlook his inability to change you
this is a messy business he wants to get
all his stuff
that you value he wants to leave his
oily stain
on your life the problem with anointing
people with oil
is that oil didn’t come out if you
anointed them with water
the water would dry but if you’re
naughty with all it’s a permanent stain
being anointed is a messy business you
can’t get away from god’s anointing i
don’t care who you run with
i don’t care who you sleep with i don’t
care how many clubs you go in
you’re gonna have to carry the stain
with you because once
god
[Music]
completely saturated saul is covered
with oil
and then the prophet kissed him
so this man is all griezed down
and the prophet’s kiss is a sign of
authority
the oil comes from god the kiss comes
from the prophet
that both god and the prophet are in
agreement
thy will be done on earth as it is in
heaven
heaven sends the oil earth sends a kiss
and in one greasy kiss
all of israel is changed trying to
understand themselves
now they have a king but they think like
slaves
it sounds like a good preaching today a
lot of times you’re preaching
kingdom food but you’re talking to
people with slave mentality
and when you talk to people with slave
mentality they
they eat the bones and leave the meat
[Music]
my mother used to say eat the meat and
throw away the bone but no
today we eat the bones and we throw away
the meat samuel
the samuel
one of the greatest prophets of the old
testament
samuel who was only born at
god’s divine request samuel the only
prophet in the bible that prophesied
after his death
was one of the most anointed prophets of
the old testament
has now kissed the face of saul
and anointed him to be king
and then he gives him a challenge a
threefold challenge i’m gonna give you
this real quick
and i’ll go number one he gives him the
confirmation
he says now being anointed is not enough
i want you to go and when you get
to a particular area he said you know
down by
rachel’s tomb he says two men are going
to come down there
not one but two and they are going to
tell you
that your father has been looking for
you and that he’s been concerned
about the sheep but the sheep have come
back home but you have not come back
home
and he is concerned about you he said he
did this
so that saul would have an absolute
confirmation
that samuel was the anointed man
of god you cannot use
word that is unconfirmed
you can only use a word that has a
confirmation
stop marrying people because somebody
told you to marry him
stop doing things because somebody said
thus saith the lord if there is no
confirmation
there is no application and so there was
a confirmation
to confirm the authenticity and notice
not
only what how he confirmed it notice
where
he confirmed he confirmed it
at rachel’s tomb you remember rachel’s
tomb can i preach lord
you remember rachel’s tomb rachel was
the matriarch of the old testament
who was pregnant with her second child
and went into labor on the road to
ephrata
and the bible says in the back of a
wagon an old lopsided raggedy wagon
while they were yet a little ways from
ephrata
her water broke and she went into labor
and she pushed out
her final baby just before she gave up
the ghost
and the nurse caught the baby and told
the mother
she says don’t worry it’s a boy and as
rachel was taking her flight and she was
closing her
eyes and going into a death rattle she
said benoni
she named him son of my sorrows because
that was how she saw it
but old jacob was sitting on the wagon
and he hopped down off the wagon
whoa nearly whoa and he brought his
whole body
back to the back of the wagon where he
could hear the women squalling
and he opened up the wagon and move the
curtains
out of the way just in time to see
the love of his life slip away
into glory and between her legs
comes the hope of his legacy
a child she called bonona son of my
sorrows
but jacob looked at him and said no his
point of view was totally different
he had been named by a dying woman her
point of view is he’s the son of my
sorrows
i’m sorry i won’t raise you i’m sorry i
won’t be there with you
i’m sorry i didn’t get to see you
through i’m sorry my water broke before
i got there
i’m sorry i won’t be able to watch you
grow i’m sorry i won’t be able to give
you my wisdom
but jacob was not dying he was alive he
saw him as
son of my strength
and he birthed him and called him
benjamin
son of my strength now
saul is a descendant
of benjamin
and the reason that samuel tells
saul to go to by rachel’s tomb and so
that rachel can see
that all that she suffered
was not in vain and god said to somebody
watching tonight
said before it’s over i’m gonna show you
that all that you suffered
was not in vain the nights you were up
the nights you cried the nights your
food wouldn’t go down
the night you were pacing the floor god
said it was not in vain
there’s a king coming out of your storm
i heard you say i can’t wait to get out
of 2020
but you should not say that don’t
despise
2020 because there wouldn’t be a 2021
if there weren’t a 2020 and everything
you went through in 2020
god is going to stop by and show you
that there was a reason for that season
in your life i don’t know who i’m
preaching to
but i feel like i’m talking to somebody
if you’re in the house
make some noise if i’m in your business
make some noise if i’m talking to your
head
make some noise open your mouth and give
god a praise a praise
a praise a praise
lord i thank you my labor was not in
vain
lord i thank you my crying was not in
vain
lord i thank you
i thank you lord
[Music]
he said go down and walk past
rachel’s grave let her see
that it wasn’t just sorrow you birthed
the king
let her see that the prophecy was right
let her see all’s well that ends well
let her see that i brought success
out of your sorrow i brought day
out of your night i brought promise
out of your pain let her see
that if i before you i’m more than the
world against you
let us see that i’m god all by myself
i don’t even need you to be alive to
bring my word to pass
if i promise you i’m gonna make that
thing
happen you got a promise for
2021 and god’s going to bring it to pass
i need 30 seconds of crazy praise
just crazy holy ghost supernatural
praise right now
yeah yeah
yeah praise it
praise him like you mean it praise him
like you got a made-up man
praise him like the devil’s defeated
praise him like you’re about to deliver
a promise
praise him like god is about to perform
a miracle in your life
and the oil is flowing you know all this
flowing
is coming out of your mouth it’s coming
out of your praise
it’s coming out of your tear ducts it’s
coming out of the carpet of your hands
you got five seconds left to give
god a praise right now just five
just five just four
just four just three
just three just two
just two in your last
second shout to god like you lost your
mind
yes
yes yes
so the first test the first test brought
confirmation
the second test brought consecration
because he said go till you get to
bethel
bethel is the house of god he said and
when you get to bethel you’re going to
see some men
heading up to bethel and they’re going
up to worship
he says you’re gonna see three men
they’re gonna be carrying
three goats they’re gonna have three
loaves of bread
they’re gonna have a flagging of wine he
said they’re not gonna offer you the
goats
they’re not gonna offer you the wine
they’re going to offer you
two loaves of bread why did they have
the bread in the first place
the bread was something you used in an
offering up to god
the wine was something you used in an
offering up to god
the goats were something you used in an
offering up to god it was unusual
to share god’s offering with anyone
but they’re going to give you two loaves
i believe
that the two loaves are prophetic for
the splitting of israel into two
kingdoms
and that when you reign you’re gonna
have to reign over over
judah and israel there are two loaves
but they’re made out of one lump
yeah can you lead through a split
[Laughter]
can you lead through a split
and they’re gonna give you two loaves of
bread
bear in mind he’s still greasy
[Music]
all of this is happening with all over
his clothes
he hadn’t gotten a chance to change the
oil
did you know that the oil is still
on you i know you went through a lot
last year
but did you know the oil is still on you
i know you suffered a lot of things but
did you know the oil is still on you
i know you had to cry yourself to sleep
but you’re still
greasy you’re still greasy they lied on
you but you’re still
greasy they talked about you but you’re
still greasy
they backed up against the wall but
you’re still greasy
look at somebody and tell them i’m still
greasy
i’m still greasy you lied on me but you
didn’t take my grease
you talked about me but you couldn’t
take my grease you betrayed me but you
couldn’t take my grace
you hurt my feelings but you couldn’t
hurt my grace
what god has for me is for me
since god anointed me no devil into hell
no witch no root worker
no destroyer no mafia
no gang leader nobody can take this
all that i have the world didn’t give it
to me
and the world can’t take it away
somebody type now i got it
i got it i lost my car but i got it
i lost my job but i got it i lost my
friends but i got it
i lost my marriage but i got it i’m
still
greasy you left me but the oil is still
here walk where you got to walk
talk like you got to talk move like you
got a bull
they all is still yeah
now saul takes his greasy self
to bethel and there
he experiences the consecration
of the loaves
the consecration of the lows the two
lows
it’s the same thing that jesus did on
the road to emmaus
when he sat down with the disciples and
the bible said that they saw him
not through the cup but they saw him
through the order of the breaking of
bread
god reveals himself in the breaking
of bread he did with two fish and five
loaves of bread
he revealed himself in the order of the
breaking of bread
2020 was a breaking year
but you see god in the breaking
so that was his consecration
i need to know if you’re gonna be my
king that you can see me in the breaking
if you’re ever gonna get control over
your domain
you have to see god in the breaking
i know you want 2021 to change
your situation god is not worried about
changing
your situation god is worried about
changing you
because if god can change you you
can change the situation the problem
with
you is that your perspective is
influenced by your emotions
rachel because you’re in pain
everything coming out of you is named
from your point of view
you want me to change the baby i don’t
need to change the baby i need to change
the mother
cause you named the baby
so go by rachel’s grave and let’s fix
this thing
that her sorrow was really my strength
that her pain was really my purpose
that her problem was my power
and then go to bethel where jacob has
disturbed discovered the house of god
and you’ll see some men getting ready to
worship and i’m going to share
my offering with you this covenant
is going to legitimize my relationship
with you as a king so that you can reign
over your domain listen all god wants
you to do in 21
2021 is reign over your domain
get out of other people’s business you
ain’t got nothing to do with what’s
going on in their house
in their marriage on their job in their
life it’s to take all of your anointing
to rule over what god has given you
dominion over
he walked on a little bit further and he
goes and he says when you come to this
next place
you’re going to see the prophets coming
down off the hill now watch
in the second place they were going up
to worship in the third place
they’re coming down having been in my
presence
they have been in my glory and you’re
gonna see the prophets coming
out of my glory and they’re going to be
singing and they’re going to be playing
on harps and they’re going to be playing
instruments
music is an important part of this text
give me some music music is an important
part of this text the reason i’m wanting
to play for a minute
is that music controls atmosphere
[Music]
if you want to change your house and you
can’t get no new furniture and you can’t
paint anything
and you can’t move any walls if you just
turn on some music
music will change the atmosphere
[Music]
yeah yeah
he walked into that
[Music]
he didn’t create it he walked into it
he said when you get there they’re going
to already be playing
you’re going to step into an atmosphere
that is not your own
the atmosphere is waiting on you god
said he’s got an
atmosphere that is waiting on you
and you are about to step into
a glory you didn’t even create yourself
you get ready to step into an anointing
you got an anointing on you but the
anointing on you will never replace
what i’m about to put in you you’re
about to step
into what you’ve been wearing on the
outside
is about to get on the inside lift your
hands and open your mouth
and i want you to praise him
[Music]
first of all he brought you through
2020.
he brought you through all the heartache
he brought you through all the pain and
you’re still here
second i want you to praise him because
he kept you alive for a reason
if god didn’t have anything for you
[Music]
he could have took you out of here but
the very
facts he left you alive
means that god has something in store
for you
[Music]

you’re getting ready to
step into a supernatural
divine holy ghost

and the lord of lords and in just a few
minutes in just a few minutes

[Music]
that when saul stepped into the
atmosphere

you need to change your circle you need
to be in an
atmosphere of change the people you’ve
been around you’ve been working your
nerves
you’ve been in an atmosphere of chaos
but you’ve got to get in an
atmosphere of change so you can find out
what you can do
saul didn’t know he could prophesy saul
didn’t know he could be used of god
but when he got around people that were
being used of god he became what he was
around

your year if you change your friends

[Music]
but he equipped you
he prepped you he gave you the inner
fortitude
the nimbleness of spirit the agility of
wit
to be able to handle whatever they throw
at you
[Music]
because you have turned
[Music]
into another person
as i close tonight
i pray for you
[Music]
i pray for your choices and your
decisions
i pray for your walk with god your
consecration
in christ to all of you that haven’t
sold or all of you that feel compelled
or so that didn’t it first
[Music]
i’m praying that you’ll break your plow
out
and that you will sow
before the rain comes
[Music]
because if the rain comes it’s going to
be too late
you gotta saw while it’s dry
you gotta sow in the famine
and you need to harry
for isaac’s soul to see
in the middle of a famine
and you got to catch this famine
give your life to him in the family
[Music]
your heart to him in the family give
your seed to him
in the family because that’s the only
time
you get to use faith you don’t need
faith to sow in the rain
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
when the rain comes it won’t be by faith
my 2021 i’ve already given to god
[Music]
and what is 2021 that’s easy for you no
no no no
on your level
for you it might be 221. for somebody it
might be 20
and 21 cents
but if you think my seed is something
wait till you see my harvest
[Music]
can i pray before we close tonight i
want to pray for everybody slider
i pray for every sinner
who needs to turn into another man
another woman
another wife another husband
you know you know better you
know you know better
but you’ve been reflecting who you’ve
been associating with
when saul got around better he did
better
[Music]
and you can too can i pray for you
tonight i want i want you to stay in
this presence
i want you to catch a sunday morning
nine o’clock central standard time
i want you to catch our bible class on
wednesday night at seven
central standard time because you need
to saturate yourself
in the atmosphere of change
god is not through changing you
just because you got anointed doesn’t
mean you’re ready to rule
you got to go through all the three
steps
[Music]
you got to go through the whole steps
the confirmation the consecrations
and the third one was transformation
[Music]
and transformation is where everything
changes
[Music]
transformation is where you become
somebody you don’t even recognize
and you’re having to redefine and
rediscover yourself
why is that important preacher because
as long as you see yourself as a
grasshopper
so were your enemies the bible said we
were in our own sight as grasshoppers
and so were we in their sight you know
why they treat you bad
because you treat you bad bless jesus
you know why you can’t get nobody love
you
you don’t love you they’re just
reflecting how
you see yourself
so this is your night
[Music]
to demand better of yourself
and to demand better from the people
around you
[Music]
and don’t just receive better give
better let’s take it to the next level
in 2021
let’s purge ourselves of all our
narcissistic ways
asking god to change our stuff
and get down to the root thing that he
died for
and ask him to change you because jesus
did not
die to change your portfolio
he did not die so you could have a new
apartment
[Music]
he died so you could have a new life
because jesus knew that if you get a new
life
you can get your own apartment you get
your old house you get your own car
why are we still praying for what
sinners just walk up and back
and we call it miracles
a new car is not a miracle a new house
is not a miracle
[Music]
it’s a result of a new you
[Music]
it’s a result of a new you
and what good is it if you ain’t new
[Music]
my brothers and sisters
can you believe it
can you believe it
i was born in 1957 i couldn’t even
imagine the year 2000
can you believe it we sailed in here in
2021
to all we’ve been through
[Music]
all the dead bodies we walked past and
all all the corpses and all the grief
and all the suffering
and all the agony and all the sickness
and all the turmoil
and all the mountain top experiences and
all the valley slow
and all the times i thought i would die
and all the times i almost fainted
every devil he sent to kill me is mad
tonight
cause i stepped into
[Music]
[Applause]
2021 if i don’t do anything
else if i just show up in the new year
and say devil i’m here
i am in the atmosphere of change
[Music]
i am in the place of possibilities
so i’ll leave you
[Music]
to celebrate as you will
my only responsibility is to bring the
sinners to the foot of the cross
to the bleeding side of the savior
from where you are right now if you look
up
the cross is over your head
from his wounded side
[Music]
the efficacious redemptive properties of
his blood
come to offer you eternal life don’t you
log off until you can log off and say
i turned into another man
i turned into another woman
father god in the name of jesus
i lift up every bite slider before you
they walked away from you but you never
walked away from them
unless they turn around and come back to
you like the prodigal son
wash them in the blood forgive them of
their sin don’t let them come back with
a hearty arrogant attitude
let them come back humble let them come
back submitted
let them come back consecrated let them
come back dedicated let them come back
in total total surrender
[Music]
and father while i’m praying i pray for
the sinner
that nobody thought could be reached
[Music]
i pray for the soul
the one that nobody thought would ever
prophesy
i pray for that soul right now
it feels like everything is not worth
living
[Music]
i drop you into the atmosphere of change
i set you in the atmosphere the
atmosphere
change change can’t happen until your
right atmosphere
once you’re in the atmosphere anything
is possible absolutely anything can
happen
i want to place you in a place where
change a change do you hear me
a change oh you can change dates months
weeks years all you want to
but until you change you it doesn’t
matter
what i’m offering you right now is what
what samuel offered saul
a chance to change and to another person
and i feel a wonderful i feel a
wonderful
a wonderful change in somebody’s life
right now
god wants to give you a wonderful
change a change of change a change
i’m not talking about all the stuff
you’ve been praying about i’m talking
about all the stuff you don’t talk about

and if it changes you you can change it

make
