hallelujah you know there’s so

many things that we can thank god for i

mean you can just get your pen and your

paper out and write a list

of the the plethora of things the

magnitude and multitude of things that

we’re thankful for

but i’ve come to a place in my own life

where i just thank god

for god literally for the fact that i

have a savior

the fact that i have a king the fact

that i have a king not

the type of king that we fight for

because that’s how it typically is in

most earthly kingdoms the servants fight

for the king

but we have a king that fights for us

and i love that and i

love being a child of god i love being

a son of god i love being a part of the

family of god because there’s so many

benefits

i’m thinking about something that david

said david said for this i know

god is for me if that’s your testimony i

want you to right now put it in the feed

god is for me come on come on say it and

decree it

god is for me there are things

that we have to constantly and

consistently remind ourselves

in order to maintain the disposition of

authority

and the disposition of peace which we’ll

talk about in a moment

they’re things that we have to

constantly tell us right

i tell myself every day god is with me

put that in the feed as well god is with

me and then i tell myself god is

for me he’s on my side he’s with me

and then i say god is mercy there’s no

place in my life

for shame because god is mercy

and then i tell myself god will guide me

in other words i may not have everything

figured out but because god is

with me because he’s for me because he’s

on my side

god will guide me and then i tell myself

god will never fail me you ought to

practice that i think i gave you five

things but you ought to practice that

practice saying before you go to bed

and when you wake up in the morning

remind yourself god is

with me god will guide me

god is mercy and god will never fail me

just those four things

every day put it in the feed god is with

me god will

guide me god is mercy

and god will not fail me and i’m telling

you if you will tell

that to yourself every day if you will

wake up in the morning and say

before you go to sleep sometimes you

can’t sleep because you’ve got anxiety

trying to figure things out but if you

would just wait

and just say that to yourself in fact

put yourself to sleep in that

god is with me god will guide me

god is mercy god will not fail me it

will bless your life

well family it’s so wonderful to be with

you here today i

you know i’ve got a word from god and

god gave it to me and quite frankly i’m

supposed to be out right now i’m not

even supposed to be preaching today

i’m supposed to be out finishing this

incredible book that god has blessed me

to write

but in my own personal devotional time

god gave me this word and i said man i

got i got to take a break

from the break that i took and come and

share this word with you i believe

that it’s going to be right on time for

some of you i believe that it’s going to

be

right there that god’s going to minister

to you and the passage of scripture is

not an unfamiliar passage of scripture

at

all we’ve all read it if you haven’t

read it before you haven’t you’ve never

opened up your

word you know what i mean i’ve preached

from it but as i’ve stared at it

recently

i got revelation and i just want to i

want to share with you because i think

it’s going to bless you

i think it’s going to be a very right

now in season word for you

so let’s go to genesis chapter one and

i’m gonna read the first uh seven verses

in genesis chapter one and

uh i’m just gonna dive in just gonna go

for it we’re gonna get in this world

we’re gonna be blessed

we’re gonna move on we’re gonna worship

it’s gonna be fantastic

uh and while we’re getting ready to read

this do me a favor and shout out where

you’re watching from shout out

wherever you’re watching from whatever

country whatever region whatever land

whatever city just

just let us know put it right there in

the feed

genesis 1 and it reads like this

in the beginning god created the heavens

and the earth the earth

was without form and void and darkness

was on the face of the deep and the

spirit of god was hovering over the face

of the waters

then god said let there be light

and there was light and god saw the

light

that it was good and

and god saw the light that it was good

and god divided the light from the

darkness

god called the light day and the

darkness he called night

so the evening and the morning were the

first day

then god said let there be a firmament

in the midst of the waters and let it

divide the waters from the waters

thus god made the firmament

and divided the waters which were under

the firmament from the waters which were

above the firmament

and it was so so much there we’ll tap

into it entirely but

let’s just pray and we’re going to dive

right into what god showed me as i read

this familiar passage of scripture

recently

so father we thank you so much for your

word it is a lamp into our feet

it is a light to our path it’s

everything it’s

excellent it’s so wonderful and it feeds

us and it restores us and it renews us

now father i thank you for all those who

are watching all those who are listening

receiving this message right now and i

thank you god that you’re going to bless

them that you’re going to unlock some

things

as you’re going to make things very

clear where there were

perhaps confusion where there was

confusion or cloudiness lord

and i thank you god that you’re giving

me the spirit of wisdom and revelation

and insight and knowledge and prophecy

and full use

of who you are to communicate these

truths so we thank you

we love you we’ve received right now

in jesus name amen

amen amen god bless you family

god bless you well let me begin by

by saying that there is nothing in all

of the world

nothing in all of the entire human

experience

that’s greater and more powerful

than peace in fact at the end of the day

that’s what jesus came to give us if you

study isaiah 53 where

prophesies about what jesus would do

when he came

it says the chastisement that would

bring

us peace was placed on him so everything

that he

went through ultimately was to get us to

a place

of peace to get us to a place of of

shalom right shalom that’s the word that

was used when it says the chastisement

that brought us peace

and we’ll talk about that and and all of

us

pursue peace every single day in many

forms

some we pursue peace in the form of love

we pursue peace in the form of of

success sometimes

purpose recognition you know sometimes

we we find peace by being

understood that brings us to peace

religion spirituality all these sort of

things we’re

looking for every single day

and what we’re looking for ultimately

even though we we are searching in these

variety and various forms we’re looking

for peace

we’re looking for wholeness we’re

looking for shalom we’re looking for

rest we’re looking for compete

completeness

and the pursuit of peace is even greater

than the pursuit of happiness i know our

our founding fathers you know talked

about our pursuit

that we were all after and entitled to

the

the pursuit of happiness but i think

that peace is deeper

because happiness is a feeling

it’s a feeling but but peace is is a

being it is a disposition i can

be happy i become peace

you track it with me and so so i think

at the end of the day

we’re we’re after peace more than we are

after

happiness and certainly if you have

peace you can be happy

but happiness is oftentimes based on

happenings

and and circumstances and i think that

what we are after ultimately

is something much deeper and it’s a

place it’s a state that we want to get

to

and it’s a state of stability and

and so all of us are pursuing peace and

in my own

personal pursuit of peace

i’ve discovered that that i grow in my

peace

personally as i learn more

about god and about god’s ways

that there’s something about me

coming to a greater and elevated place

of peace

when i look at god in fact there’s a

passage of scripture

in in isaiah chapter 26 and verse three

study it when you get a chance

but it essentially says that we will be

kept

in perfect peace when our mind is stayed

on god isn’t that something

when our mind is stayed what does it

mean to have your mind stayed it’s when

my mind

is fixed on god

it’s when i watch this is when i stare

at god

god is so incredible and he’s so amazing

that you will miss god if you don’t

stare at god

you and i cannot simply glance at god

i’m kept in perfect peace when i when i

set my

gaze on god when i when i look at god

there’s a there’s a passage in

revelation and it talks about

how there are elders and these elders

are around the throne

and they worship god and they don’t they

literally worship god eternally

night nor day they don’t stop and

they’re just worshiping god

and it talks about how periodically

these elders

fall to the ground in worship and and

and they get back up and they say you

know blessings and honor and

they talk about how amazing god is and

then all of a sudden they fall out again

and i believe that god there’s so much

to god

that that if you just glimpse get a

glimpse at god you’ll miss it

but if you stare at god i believe that

god is so

overwhelmingly awesome that if you stare

at him long enough you’re going to get a

new

aspect of who he is and it’s going to be

so overwhelming that you fall out

prostrating worship again i believe that

and so i’ve learned that that when my

peace is disrupted

oftentimes my my gaze my

staring at god somehow

has been broken down that that’s for

somebody

somebody you’re staring at your

difficulty

more than you’re staring at god you’re

meditating on your trouble you’re

meditating on

your perceived need and your peace is

being disrupted

because peace oftentimes has to do with

what you’re focusing on are you tracking

with me

and so recently recently

i decided to to go back to the book

and start in the beginning and let me

tell you something

when i read scripture when i read

scripture i’m not

looking for rules i’m not looking for

okay hey what are the rules what are

religious rules and

that’s not why when i look at scripture

what i’m trying

to do is i’m trying to refresh my gaze

and i’m trying to refresh my stare

i’m trying to to find god’s face again

because i know that it is impossible for

me to

gaze at god to stare at god to be in

god’s face

and not have peace i’ll keep you in

perfect peace

when your mind is stayed upon me

and so when i was in that place where i

was seeking greater

peace i i looked afresh at the beginning

and i went to the very beginning of the

scripture

and as i stared at the story of creation

i saw a

pattern that blessed me

and i think that this pattern is going

to do the same for you

are you tracking with me so i want to in

an effort for us to grow our peace i

want us to grow in peace there’s a lot

of things that

that are are attempting to disrupt our

peace from

from pandemics to to cold fronts

to to storms and to just there’s so much

going on to to economic turmoil except

there’s so many things

to family situations to to job

situations there’s so many things

that are warring against our peace that

i want to grow us

no matter where you are in your place of

peace i want to elevate us

and i want us to unpack some principles

that i saw

right there in the text that i believe

will bless you

right out of this passage of scripture

and so so let’s go back to it let’s go

back to it

and so it says in the beginning

god created the heavens and earth and

let’s just stop right there because

i love this in the beginning you find

god

doing what god does now let’s qualify

this

when it says in the beginning it’s not

god’s beginning

it’s the beginning of something

that god was doing are you tracking with

me you know sometimes

my my kids my kids say you know like

where did god

come from and i say baby from came from

god

you know what i mean like like god was

there so when we go back to the

beginning

we’re not finding the beginning of god

because god is infinite but what we’re

doing is

we’re finding the beginning of something

that god has getting ready

to create so it’s not god’s beginning

but it is a beginning and one of the

things that i’ve learned about life

is that our lives are made up of cycles

that have beginnings feel this

our life our lives they’re made up of

cycles that have beginnings

and sometimes we get frustrated because

we don’t want to start over again

we want to go through some one time and

graduate

and never have to go through it again

and and and we we want to hey look i’m

guilty of this too we want to arrive

right sometimes you’ve been through so

much in your life

that you don’t really want to have to

start over again you feel like hey

hey look i should have mastered that by

now

but the reality of it is we go from

glory to glory

and life is a series it’s a series

of cycles that have beginnings because

our lives are revolving

if you even think about it even the way

that the earth is created even right now

the earth is moving and so is our lives

our lives

are revolving and watch this and we are

evolving as we revolve

when did you catch it so our life is

moving and as our life moves we move

and we evolve and that all happens

because we are in cycles and these

cycles have beginnings stay with me

it’s going to make sense in just a

second and so

and so there will always be

a beginning happening somewhere in our

lives

and that is where the work of god will

be happening in the beginning

god created oh god see right right now

in your life somewhere in your life

something is beginning yeah and we’re

going to talk about that because

beginning is rather tricky and i can’t

wait

to unpack this but something is

beginning and there might be

some of you and there’s something going

on in your life and you think that your

life is ending or you think that

something is

ending something profitable is ending

but but i want to challenge you today

and i want to challenge you to embrace

the fact that no

something isn’t ending what is really

happening that is more significant

is something is beginning and we have to

understand what beginning

when god is beginning something in our

lives looks like or we will be

frustrated unnecessarily

can i talk to you today there will

always be a beginning

happening somewhere in your life if you

are growing and this will

go on until the day of jesus christ

now let’s go back to the text let’s go

back to genesis 1 let’s understand

this because ultimately what we see god

doing is god moving this is what god

does

in the beginning god created the heavens

and earth he’s

moving he’s moving now why is he moving

what is god doing why is he working what

is happening

this is important because i

recognize that god deciding to create

had to have been a response to his

perception

of something lacking oh stay with me

please let me teach today god does not

feel space where nothing is lacking

and he said it again so so so this this

these beginnings that god starts and

and and even if we take it back to the

in context as he is creating the heavens

and the earth

he is not arbitrarily creating

he has perceived that there is a space

for what he is creating in other words

something something is lacking

i feel god and oftentimes god sees

lack watch this where we see contentment

or even abundance in other words in

places where we are

fine we don’t want to change we don’t

want to grow we don’t want to do

anything god begins to stir

things up because oftentimes in the

place where we see contentment and when

we see abundance

god sees lack and all of a sudden he

begins a process

in us here’s something that’s really

interesting

and it’s noteworthy even god things

watch this

become good things that need to be torn

down

in order to make way for new god things

that was a lot

see even what was god

a god thing you prayed for it

you felt the presence on it it was god

no doubt

but what happens when a god thing

becomes a good thing

well what’s the difference between a

good thing and a god thing a god thing

is the thing that god is definitely

doing

a good thing is something that is good

but it may not necessarily be god

and so even that thing that was once god

becomes good and that’s when things get

tricky

because when a good thing becomes a god

excuse me when a god thing

because when a god thing becomes a good

thing and you didn’t recognize the shift

then god in order to get to the god

thing oftentimes has to tear down a good

thing

and it is frustrating can i talk to

somebody right now

if if i if you will allow me to teach

you like that just put it right there in

the feed teach pt

just teach pt break it down break it

down sir and i will

yeah even god things become good things

what do you do when a god thing becomes

a good thing most people won’t do

anything because they don’t recognize

they say if that was god then it must be

god no because

god is moving god is on the move and we

have to stay

in step with god and god now

sometimes has to begin this process of

renovation one of the things that i’ve

i’ve discovered about god and you can

see it in the text and we’ll break it

down in a minute

is that when god is creating it almost

always necessitates renovation

a temporary chaos if you would

so it says in the beginning god created

the heavens and the earth and then it

goes right then in verse 2 and it says

and the earth was void

and without form like wait hold on this

is this is crazy

because literally it’s essentially it

means that there it was

it was he’s creating the heavens and

earth and then he looks up

and well now he doesn’t look up but we

look up in the text and the earth is

void and formless

complete it’s chaos it’s it’s it’s

what is chaos chaos is is is when things

are out of order

uh in complete disorder and and and

complete disarray

and this is the hard part and it’s the

most confusing part

you know we recently had some work done

in our home

and and there was a vision on

what the home would ultimately look like

and and we’re excited about the vision

because we understood the vision

okay but then when when the trucks

rolled in

and and and all the the the equipment

was

in the front in the driveway in and tape

is everywhere and

and half the side is painted and the

other half is not

and things are are boarded up it looked

a mess

see that’s where things get tricky when

god is getting ready to do something new

and and he goes through this innovation

process

and we don’t know it we get confused and

feel like something’s wrong

but no sometimes something wrong

something is very right

and if you’re taking notes write this

down the difference between

a mess and a miracle in the making is

insight

see the reason why we weren’t frustrated

when we saw everything in disorder

and everything in disarray is because we

had an insight

about what was ultimately going to

happen with our property

and so you have to understand when god

is creating something in your life

and even as might be somebody who’s

watching right now and you just don’t

feel like things are in order things

aren’t where they used to be

and you’re in this new space and there’s

a little bit of chaos and you don’t

quite understand what’s going on

but i came here to tell you that god is

a god who when he’s getting

ready to create a new beginning in your

life to bring you to another dimension

to bring you to

another place he has to the process

always has an element of disarray

disorder and even

chaos in it it is controlled chaos and

it is temporary chaos

because when god gets finished what he’s

building in your life

oh my god despise not the beginning

because it’s not the beginning that god

is looking at it is the end and you have

to trust them in the process

that’s your word say that’s my word sir

that’s

that’s that’s my word

the earth as we’re unpacking this

was void and without form but but let’s

let’s let’s go deeper

so in the beginning god creates

and we know the early stages of creation

oftentimes

necessitate renovation controlled chaos

temporary chaos it’s only chaos it’s

only chaotic because there is a

reordering i feel this with somebody for

the spirit of god

that there’s a reordering and so so

watch this it is only chaos to you

god sees it because he sees the end in

the beginning he knows exactly

where things are supposed to fit i feel

i want to sit on that for somebody

there’s there’s somebody and you’re

frustrated over where you are

and it’s because you are putting a

period

where there is nothing more than a comma

and you’re frustrated and you and you

don’t like it

and it is uncomfortable and you’re

stressed out and i get it

i like to have everything in order

myself but i also

have walked with god long enough to

recognize that when god is doing

something new

that oftentimes he employs the process

of renovation

and in order to get to where god is

going he is not you know you go by some

some places and they and they have been

in construction or under construction

for years and it seems like they’re no

no that’s not what i’m no god’s going to

finish what he started

in fact philippians 1 6 says he who has

begun a good work in you

is going to complete it until the day of

jesus christ i feel that for somebody

god is doing a work

in you right now it’s a work in you in

you in you that means that you can’t see

it that means that you can’t perceive it

that means that you can’t

fully understand it but it’s happening

in you and it is so

awkward i’m telling you one of the

lessons that i’ve learned is that the

craziest time

in life for me is in between dimensions

i feel that it’s in between levels right

you have a mountaintop moment

and and you all excited or whatever and

you think that you’re going to live on

the mountain forever no

no one lives on the mountain forever we

have to come back down

through the valley get what we need and

then god sets us up on another mountain

i’m trying to help

somebody today this is normal

it is normal to have seasons when you

don’t have it all figured out

it is normal to have seasons where you

have to learn how to walk

all over again it is normal

this is the process because there’s

always a beginning

it is normal for you to return watch

this

and become a student all over again it

is

normal and not only is it normal it is

necessary

how are you going to continue to go from

level to level

and glory to glory and faith to faith on

your way to purpose and destiny without

becoming a student

you feel it and so that means that

you’re supposed to

not know what’s going on that means it’s

supposed to you’re supposed to be the

one with all the questions

yeah but here is the thing and we’re

talking about starting over and new

beginnings but the beautiful thing is

you never start over on the same level

oh god yeah you you’re starting over but

you’re not starting over from scratch

you’re starting over

in the next dimension and i’ve learned

that and so i’ve learned to embrace

those seasons are you tracking with me

if you track it with me put it right

there put it right there in the feed

in the beginning god created the heavens

and the earth the earth was without form

and boy

and darkness was on the face of the deep

watch this

and it says and the spirit of god

was hovering over

the face of the waters the face of the

waters the face

of the deep i think that that’s that’s

really interesting

because

no matter where you are

in life cycles

and life seasons there will always be

water present

water present what is water what are you

talking about bt

all this was happening there was

formlessness happening everything was

void

but the water the water

was always there the water the water

the water represents

god’s ever-present creative ability

watch this

to birth to deliver

to create anew so so

even in your dry place

water is flowing you cannot have watch

this

water represents you got to study what

i’m going to preach on water one day

but water represents so many things

watch this a

child a life cannot even come forth

without

it coming through water you think about

childbirth water

jesus was speaking of nicodemus

nicodemus wanted to know

what he must do to be born again he said

you must be born of water

and spirit even baptism even baptism

deals with water right water

so water is symbolic of

the gateway to dimensions feel the

spirit of god

can i talk to you like this there will

always be

water present even jesus said i’ll be a

well

of living water springing up on the

inside of you says out of your mouth

will flow rivers of living

water are you tracking with me so even

in your dry place i want to prophesy to

you

even in your dry place there’s water and

not only water

but the spirit of god is hovering over

the face of the water the spirit of god

is stirring that water and it’s

interesting that word

hover where it says the spirit of god

was hovering over the face of the water

that word hovering literally means

watch this to move in a relaxed way

oh god so over your circumstances right

now no matter where you are

in the building process the spirit of

god

is smoothly confidently and in a relaxed

disposition

moving over your circumstances that’s

why oftentimes what we have to do

is we have to get out of our feelings

and into the spirit

did you hear what i just said we have to

get out of

our whining and out of our complaining

and

out of our feelings and out of our fear

we have to get

out of that and we have to come up to

the place where the spirit

is hovering over the place

that is getting ready to birth us into

the next dimension

are you tracking with me there will

always be

water there will always be water

over your circumstance over your

situation can we go further

can we go further thank you jesus

and so as we keep reading it i know i’m

just going to go verse by verse first of

our verse as we keep reading

in the beginning god created the heavens

and the earth the earth was without form

and void and darkness on the face of the

deep and the spirit of god

was hovering was in a very relaxed

posture

over the face of the water it says watch

this then the next word

is then it says then god said let there

be light the next word

is then now that’s powerful then is

powerful

because then lets me know that god is a

god of sequence

it lets me know it lets me know that

that watch this that god is a god of

timing and notice that he says

he says he says let there be in other

words he’s saying

allow it he’s saying let there be

watch this this is not even watching

this is not even really creation

this is a an allowance for what was

created

in other words it already exists

so what god has promised you and what

god is

producing in you and what what you’re in

the beginning stage of

already exists and the only thing that

it is doing

is it is we’re waiting for the release

of god’s timing

somebody to catch what i said it’s

already done

it’s already figured out it’s already

worked out that’s why

he’s saying let there be he’s saying

allow it let it happen right

in other words the only thing is holding

it back is timing so so here

by my word boom i’m saying it’s timing

so let

me let what i promise show up

because the only thing that was keeping

it was the timing

and the timing was in my head and now

i’m saying that i feel the spirit of god

i want to decree something over somebody

right now i believe right now

you are coming into your timing and i

feel like god is saying

then concerning your circumstance if

that’s your word catch it

because the vision is always for an

appointed time

it is not that god is creating the

vision

the vision already exists but it’s held

back by the timing of god

but god is going to say in a minute then

let there be let it be as i said before

the foundation of the word

if that’s your word hit me up in the

comments right now

i feel like preaching

then god said

then god said let it happen the way i

saw it

before i started this process let it

happen before i started

this beginning let it happen the way i

saw it before i allowed my son and my

daughter to walk

through this confusing season now is the

time

i’m a god of order i’m a god of secrets

i’m a god of timing i won’t make you

wait for it forever

then god said

and stuff started happening then god

said

then then there is a then there’s a then

i feel it

some of you are going to be given your

testimony in the future

and you’re going to be talking about

what you were going through and you’re

going to be talking about how difficult

things were

and you’re going to be talking about how

you almost quit and how you almost gave

up you’re going to be talking about that

and then you’re going to come to the

point in the testimony and then you’re

going to say

and then god said and then god came

through

and then the miracle came through and

then the breakthrough came through

who am i preaching to on this day

and then it happened

i feel it and then i feel it and then on

its way to your house

i feel your testimony is growing i feel

like you’re getting ready to see

god show up on your behalf and speak to

your circumstances

and unleash everything

that he spoke to you then

but while you’re waiting there’s

something that he does

something that he does see see god is

getting ready you got to read this

when you get some time god is ready to

get

getting ready to do a whole thing the

whole thing a whole thing i feel like

god is getting ready to do a whole thing

a whole thing not a

small thing he’s getting ready to do

this whole thing this whole thing

if you keep reading all kind of stuff

happens all things

you know all kind of things the earth

and the and the sun

and the moon and the stars and the

heavens and

the expanse and the trees and the seeds

and the animals and ultimately the

people and then ultimately says it’s

good and he rests

he’s getting ready to do a whole thing

a whole thing in your life

a whole thing that’s worth the wait but

because he knows that it’s a process

the first thing that he gives in the

process

is light it’s like

it says and then god said

let there be light

let there be light now what did he why

did he

why did he give light first well what is

light i was looking up that word light

and and that hebrew word that was

translated light there in the text

is very similar to the greek word in the

new testament that is translated

revelation so

so so light in this context

is revelation and what this taught me

is that what god will give you

before manifestation is revelation

you you gotta catch it you gotta catch

it

revelation always comes before

manifestation to give you peace

and wherewithal for the journey

oh god see for some of you what’s

happening right now even in this message

and that’s why i had to come and preach

it to you

and come off my my time away to write to

preach it to you is because some of you

things were getting dark the darkness

was pervasive

what i mean by darkness i mean the the

absence of revelation the absence of

understanding what god is doing

and some of you were beginning to get

perplexed and and some of you

you were beginning you were beginning to

be overwhelmed with negative thoughts

because sometimes when you don’t have

information

the enemy will come with misinformation

and he will begin to flood your mind

with thoughts and ideas

and god says no no before we get too far

down this road

let there be light

let there be revelation let there be

truth

are you tracking with me let there be

light let there be truth

let there be revelation why because

and notice he did not when he created

light

he did not dispel the darkness

because every day there would be light

and there would be darkness he didn’t

dispel the darkness when

he just created light so that you will

have

something to contend with the darkness i

feel that for somebody

you’ve heard it said before and if you

would never have write this down

never doubt in the night what god showed

you in the light

never doubt in the night

what god showed you in the life see

that’s why revelation is so important

that’s why staring at god

is so important because night time will

come

sometimes the night season is the

beginning of

what god is creating in your life you

can’t see it’s dark

you don’t know your way around you can’t

figure things out

it’s kind of hard for you to move and so

god says hey hey hey

hey i’m gonna give you revelation

because you’re gonna fight with that

you’re gonna contend against darkness

with the light of the revelation i gave

you and some of you all you needed for

this season was light

i think that’s why i’m here to give you

light

so that you can fight back when darkness

comes and tries to overwhelm you

are you tracking with me we got to keep

this party going

yeah and notice also

it says that not only as he says let

there be light he sees the light the

light is good and immediately

he starts dividing things

see he’s building this thing i feel that

god is building

something you’re in the middle of a

building process you are in the middle

of a glorious renovation and it’s going

to be awesome

this whole thing i believe with cole bed

the pandemic all this crazy stuff

as ugly and as painful and as hurtful as

it’s been

we are in the process of renovation

we’re not doing things

the way that we used to do things and

i’m seeing glory

take place and even as i spoke and i

prophesied early on in the pandemic

there will be glory after this we are in

the country the world the nations are in

the process

of god’s renovation and when god gets

finished

that’s why we can’t be weary in our

well-doing are you tracking with me

and so it says that that when god

creates the light he divides it

from the darkness and even as we we read

in that last passage

of scripture uh in our text and not only

that he also

puts a firmament and he divides the

water and the ferment divides the water

from the water so we see

god dividing why is god dividing what

god is doing is this is representative

of god giving definition

he’s giving definition and i believe

with all of my heart that god

is beginning to add definition to your

journey i know that you have felt

void and i know that you have felt

formless and i know that things have not

necessarily

lined up and you don’t know how you are

going to get from where you are

to what god promised you don’t know how

you’re going to get from where you are

to what god put in your heart but i’m

telling you step

by step god is getting ready to add

definition he’s going gonna

as you zoom in things are gonna be made

clear

and they’re gonna be more defined it’s

amazing and you have to understand you

have to understand

that it takes time to realize

a god thing don’t be

frustrated or

intimidated by what you do not know

yet there there’s a strategy

in place there’s a process in place

there is a sequence in place and the

challenging part

is that all of this is hidden from us

until

completion and all of the unfolding

dynamics won’t make sense

to any of us they won’t make sense to

you until the

fullness was expressed the fullness is

expressed at completion

so now the question is okay i hear you

i understand what’s going on but how do

we navigate

this chaos and this uncertainty

how do we do it what do we do i’m

writing a book though

that will explain this

in its entirety that you can’t get into

next year but right now

how do we do it i i understand

that i’m in renovation

i understand that my world is in

renovation for some of you your

relationship is in a renovation

some of you you got family things that

you’re trying to figure out and you

don’t have the answers and it’s crazy

what do i do

in the process i know it’s going to

happen because god said

he’s going to say then let there be i

know it’s going to happen because one

day he’s going to allow it to happen but

what do i do

in the meantime here’s what i would tell

you to do one simple thing

i want you to surrender to peace

i want you to surrender to peace i’m

learning more

and more about peace and and i thought

that peace was something that you have

to possess

but the truth of the matter is peace is

already there

there there are just things that that

get in the way of our peace

they’re things that we hold on to the

things that that we

that we we believe the things that we

allow that that war against

our peace and and i was talking to the

lord the lord says

you have to learn how to how to

surrender

to the peace that’s already there you

don’t have to produce

peace you don’t have to manufacture

peace you don’t have to try to possess

peace it’s already there that’s why it

says

i will keep you in perfect peace if your

mind is stayed upon me

in other words i am peace i am jehovah

shalom i am your peace

and so how do you surrender to peace

simply put surrendering to peace

is about watch this the inner

acknowledgement

that all is well it is essentially

agreeing with god that’s why it’s

surrendering

god says i will work all things together

for good for those who love me

and those who are called according to my

purpose

that’s not in the scripture just to be

in the scripture so that we can have

something to quote and throw around

the word is in there for peace jesus

said these words that i speak to you

that in me you might have peace in the

world you have tribulation but be a good

church i’ve overcome the world

i’m telling you this so that in me you

will

have peace and so surrendering to peace

is watch this it’s making a decision

that you’re going to believe god and

that you’re going to believe that even

though

there’s darkness and uncertainty and

voidness

even though all of that is a reality

i’ve made a decision to have an inner

acknowledgement

that all is well

and once i make the decision see you you

never underestimate the power of a

decision i i cannot wait to talk to you

about that

a decision is powerful when you make up

your mind about something

and i mean make up your mind and then

you set your mind and you bring yourself

entirely into submission to that

perspective in other words

you do not allow anything in your

consciousness

anything in your life anything around

you i feel the lord

that conflicts with the perspective that

god spoke to you

that’s why sometimes you gotta like you

know you love some people you gotta love

people from a distance

one of my friends you know he’s talked

about how how you you have to sometimes

you have to have friendships with

guardrails

where you can only allow i love you we

are friends

but but i got to put this guard rail up

because your negativity

is messing with my peace

or your lack of faith or your lack of

vision let me tell you something energy

is contagious

i can’t hang around fearful people i

look up and all of a sudden i’m fair

wait where’d that fear come from oh

and so so it is bringing all of yourself

into submission to the perspective that

all is well you surrender anything

and everything and every thought that

conflicts with peace i feel it

you take control of your mind you take

control of your heart

you take control of your spirit you take

control of your

your your soul and if there’s anything

that conflicts with peace

you lay it at the altar and say no i’m

surrendering this

because sometimes there will be things

that will present themselves as thoughts

that are trying to protect

you from something but you cannot trust

it you don’t need a thought to protect

you

you have got god to protect you and he

will protect his plans

and he will protect his promises and so

even things that

these cautions or or these securities

that that you embrace

you have to submit you have to lay down

at the altar

if it is not what god said if it’s not

saying to me that all is well then i

surrender it

and i’ll tell you why peace is so

important

it’s because in this place of peace

the instructions that

provide the coordinates

that you need the coordinates that where

you need to be

how you need to be positioned what to do

what not to do

all of those things will be found in the

place of peace not the place of pressure

and not the place of stress

and there’s something that the bible

says about peace in romans chapter 14.

and it says that the kingdom of god

is in righteousness and peace

and joy in the holy spirit

the holy spirit i said a lot

let me summarize and then i want to pray

for you

you have to understand what the

beginning of your next

looks like the beginning of your next

is never sexy it is never

glamorous it is

renovation because god

cannot pour new wine into old wineskins

and this is something sometimes god has

to watch this

tear down the stage of your belief

because the stage of your current belief

is not broad enough and strong enough to

hold

what god is getting ready to place on

the stage

and so sometimes you cannot put

new equipment on an old stage

sometimes what god is getting ready to

do in your life is so big you have to

tear down the stage

create a bigger stage

for what he wants to do what’s in you

is greater than what surrounds you

and because of that oftentimes god has

to

renovate in order to take you forward

but there will always be light there

will always be water

there will always be light what is water

water is always near

water is the gateway to breakthrough

that’s what it represents breakthrough

from the dimension of the unborn to the

born happens through

water breakthrough from the dimension of

unsaved

to being saved happens to the water

the water is always near the gate

to break through is always near and the

spirit

is right there at that gate hovering

over it

and you’re then your timing

will surely come

and light will come revelation god will

guide you

he will give you what you need when you

need it

and when god gives you the word even the

way god has given you this word today

when he gives it to you in the light

that’s what you use to fight back the

night

until your season comes and while you’re

waiting my friend

while you’re waiting son

daughter family brother sister

surrender to peace make a decision right

now

all is well all is good

i don’t have all the answers i don’t

have it figured out

but it’s good because god is good

there’s a whole big thing that god is

doing with you

it’s bigger than what you think and you

have to trust him

when you can’t see his hand you got to

trust his heart

where is god god is at work

right now in your life setting up

what’s next for you and the spirit

is a spirit of peace

and i want you to be filled with the

spirit

i don’t want you if you’re not filled

with the spirit you’re going to be

filled with anxiety

you’re going to be filled with selfish

ambition

you’re going to be filled with envy and

comparison

particularly while god is renovating

you’re going to be looking at your

neighbor’s house saying i wish i had

that

no you need to wish you had what god has

for you

so while you’re waiting i want you to

surrender

to peace

it’s an inner acknowledgement all is

well but then where each other come no

no you tell worry no

all is well then doubt tries to come you

say no no

no all is well

[Music]

fear tries to run up on you say no no no

all is well

because my let there be is coming

i want to pray for you father i thank

you

for everyone watching everyone listening

right now hallelujah

this is a prophetic word i know it

pulled me out of writing

to release this word into the ears and

the hearts of your sons and daughters

i thank you lord god that their light

has come

i thank you god at their peace has come

and father there may be

some who are watching that that don’t

know how to even receive the spirit of

peace

that they might live and function in

another another realm another dimension

another way

and father i just pray right now that as

you said you said god

and you stand at the door of the hearts

of your sons and daughters and you knock

and you said if anyone hears my voice

and comes in

and opens the door you said i will come

in

and sup with them and them with me

family if this word is touching you in a

deep place

i can tell you right now it’s not toray

but god sent me to you and specifically

jesus and he it’s him

knocking on the door of your heart

saying i get you i get you better than

you get you

i know you better than you know you

and i’m knocking on the door of your

heart

and if you will open up and receive this

and it’s nothing but love this is not

religion this is not manipulation this

is not control

this is love because no one can get you

the way

i can get you no one can hold you down

the way that i hold you down

i have revealed myself so marvelously to

people

that they allow me to hold them down for

the rest of their days

and that’s what the lord wants to do not

simply to get you through this season

but to get you through every season and

if that’s you

and you feel the touch of god on your

heart you feel

the touch of god in your chest right now

then i just want you to open up i just

want you to say yes i received just

just say yes i received put it right

there in the feed put it right there in

the comments

write it down just say yes i receive

that’s it

i receive and god will begin to come in

and the spirit will begin to come in and

there will be a divine exchange that

is extremely personal and intimate

and god will make himself known to you

in a way that you will never forget

and that you will never want to end

[Music]

and then you will know that god is

with you the god will guide you

the god is mercy and grace

and that god will not fail you

that’s my prayer for you today i love

you

you
