00:25:29It's on you.

00:25:59You know, you know,

00:26:29you, you know, you and the

00:26:59who they really are, and most don't like it. They're not ready to see the truth about themselves.

00:27:08And again, you haven't said anything. It's simply the presence of your life, a consecrated,

00:27:14set-apart life unto God. Just that alone exposes and makes people feel uncomfortable

00:27:22because devils can never stay in the same space as the divine presence of God.

00:27:31Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Lord. Glory to God. So now being in your presence is a test for them.

00:27:45It's a test of their intentions, and they can either get it right or they can make it wrong.

00:27:52It's not up to you. It's a test of their character. And guess what? A test that many will fail

00:28:01because, again, they have the opportunity. They don't realize it wasn't a coincidence that you

00:28:10happened to come together or you bumped into each other. That's not a coincidence. That's a chance

00:28:15for them to get to see something. When someone points out something to me and I can take a moment

00:28:21and see if that's so or not, that's a blessing. That's a good thing. Okay? But see, most of the

00:28:31people that we hang around or that are in our circle or whether it's family, you know, coworkers,

00:28:39whatever, they have confused access with relationship. They act as though your presence

00:28:47is their right, regardless of how they treat you, that you're supposed to take it and be around them

00:28:56and let them do whatever they will surely. I mean, I don't care how long, it may seem like it's going

00:29:03on a long time because God is so long suffering. He loves his people. I always say that. He loves all

00:29:08his people, but he deals with them accordingly. And that, you know, how long they carry on,

00:29:14it's like God is giving them an opportunity over and over again. And they are blowing it. They're,

00:29:19you know, refusing to level up to where God is bringing them. And that falls back on them.

00:29:26And they're, you know, going to lose access in a way that they've never really understood.

00:29:34And again, thinking just because you're related to them or just because, you know, your family or

00:29:38your friendships or you work at the same situation. And so whatever it is, they think that they have

00:29:45a right. And that is so wrong. Okay. They, they don't have a right. It's a privilege and they don't

00:29:54even realize it. They think that they're entitled to your presence to do, due to so-called relationships

00:30:03relationships and how they act. Doesn't even matter to them. Like you're supposed to, who do you think

00:30:09you are? Well, that's all changing. As I said before, this word is giving you clarity. You lay hold on

00:30:17this word in Jesus name, because God is going to do something and you are going to be one of the first

00:30:23to get the revelation knowledge and understand exactly what is going on. You no longer compromise

00:30:30compromise your presence for their comfort. They have the chance to honor and protect and even learn

00:30:40from your presence. Their choice, hear me now, will determine their access and it has nothing to do

00:30:50with you. Some will mistreat and misunderstand what you carry because they're too immature. We understand

00:31:00that. They're too immature to be entrusted in the presence of one who God has chosen. And those

00:31:07sometimes age has nothing to do with that. We're not talking about, it's like immaturity people that

00:31:14just don't grow. They haven't grown and it has nothing to do with their age. They can be older than

00:31:21you twice your age. Doesn't matter. Some people are not mature enough to be in your presence.

00:31:26And sometimes those are the ones that God keeps, you know, he labors long with them. He suffers long

00:31:32with them. But at some point, because God is just, it will come to an end. Oh yes, it absolutely

00:31:39will come to an end. Their abuse will not just lose your presence, but they're going to also lose

00:31:48covering. They're going to lose protection. They're going to lose favor. The alignment that came by them

00:31:54being in your presence, by being in your life, they're going to lose that. It's more than just

00:32:00access to you. There's all the things that God had for them that they will lose because of their

00:32:07disrespect and abuse. So you no longer, glory to God, will ever shrink to those who never respected.

00:32:17You just don't shrink to them anymore. You don't feel guilty to them anymore. You don't allow any kind

00:32:26of piercing of your spirit by what the enemy is using them to do. Glory to God.

00:32:35You no longer shrink to those who never respected your seat,

00:32:41okay? That they were given at the table of your presence. They had a seat at your table

00:32:50and they abused and misused it and disrespected it. And when they lose that, it's like you think

00:32:59of a table when it's all set. It has a full, you know, three, four, five course meal, everything that

00:33:06they need for nutritional values are there and they lose it. This is what happens when people,

00:33:12God gives them a seat at your table and they disrespect and abuse that. They lose that seat

00:33:19and there's much to be lost when they no longer have your presence. Those who were meant to be in

00:33:26your presence will recognize you by the power of your presence. They will know how to honor,

00:33:34how to respect, how to be in your presence. And you'll know the difference in those who are

00:33:42accessible and you're able to deal with them. And those who are not, you will know this.

00:33:50And when you do, as I said, God cuts off that access. They'll blame it on you. Oh,

00:33:56he thinks he's this or he thinks he's that. Because weak always attack the strong. So we

00:34:04understand that. So those who disrespected their access to you, they know exactly what they have

00:34:11done and exactly what they have lost, whether they will admit it or not. And in most cases,

00:34:19there won't, again, pride prevents their repentance. And it's not something that you will have to deal

00:34:26with. Your access is gated from this moment on. Your access is gated because what's valuable should

00:34:35never be easily accessible. Your value is at a high cost now. Think of all the things you've been

00:34:44through to get to this point. I keep emphasizing that many have become too expensive. It's too costly.

00:34:53You know what it costs you. And so you become far more guarded than you ever were before because

00:35:02you understand what you carry now. You understand the weight of the glory and the cost of what it has

00:35:10cost you. So your access is gated. Those who choose to mishandle what God protects will pay the price.

00:35:21That's not by your hands. It'll be by your absence. And there will us. You don't realize how many people

00:35:31even now are looking back and realizing what they should have done and shouldn't have said to you or

00:35:39how they should have treated you. You may not ever get to know that, but they know it. And that's what's

00:35:46most important because that's what God holds them accountable for. Glory to God. You carry the power

00:35:53that many don't understand. It's all that we can do to understand. You know, they mistake

00:36:02your silence for weakness just because you don't respond or react every time they cut up and have

00:36:08something to do every time they carry on. And just because you are silent and don't, you know, go back

00:36:15and forth with them. They take that for weakness. What a huge mistake. Huge mistake. Your presence shifts

00:36:26entire atmospheres and you are yet to learn that even for yourself. You don't have to say a word

00:36:34and it's not fear of you, but it's the fear of what your presence can reveal in people. And they know

00:36:46that. That's why some will always have a hard time because just being in your presence, they feel like

00:36:52they're being exposed. And rather than taking the responsibility of dealing with that exposure and

00:37:00say, okay, that's something I need to deal with. No, they get upset with you and you always this,

00:37:06and you're this, and you're that, not realizing that that was an opportunity for you to level up.

00:37:14And instead you went down even lower. Glory to God. Your quiet stillness,

00:37:23the very stillness and quietness of you, do you realize even that's a confrontation for some.

00:37:30Because it exposes their fake counterfeit performances. And no matter how much they

00:37:36perform and carry on, you see right through it. And you don't get drawn into it. And boy,

00:37:46does that make the adversary mad that everything he cropped up just went like a balloon, just fizzled

00:37:52out and came into nothing. That's what you do to the adversary and his evil attacks.

00:38:01You've been refined. Glory to God. Refined through fire. You've been carried in the midst of your

00:38:09silence. By who? By the Lord, your God. You had to learn how to be carried by God. And that is a whole

00:38:17teaching by itself. Because anyone who's had to suffer and fight for themselves, go for it,

00:38:23do what you had to do, do what you only had to do because you didn't know another way. You had

00:38:27nobody else to fight. That's hard for you to say, okay, God, I'm just going to trust you. I'm not

00:38:36going to do it. It's hard. It's one of the reasons why so many of us, we really embrace spiritual

00:38:43warfare because we saw it as a weapon. It was a way for us to continue our fight. And thank God for

00:38:49it did exactly that. But there does come a time when there are battles that only God can fight.

00:38:57I've never said all battles. You will never hear me say that because I know that there are certain

00:39:02battles you must fight. But then there are also certain battles that only God can fight. And I think

00:39:09that many of us are in that place where we're going to have to trust God to carry us through what

00:39:15it is we're going through right now. We're going to have to trust the hand of God and believe and know

00:39:21beyond a shadow of a doubt that he knows exactly what we're not even going to have to really question

00:39:27or wonder. But we're going to say, Lord, I don't understand. I don't even get what's going on,

00:39:34but I trust you. Trust is faith. Faith is trust. It's a powerful thing. Glory to God. Exodus,

00:39:44I'm looking at Exodus chapter 14 and verse 14. Exodus 14 and 14. And I've known this scripture for so

00:39:52long. It took me so long to grasp this simple scripture and simply says the Lord will fight

00:39:58for you. Glory to God. You need only to be still. That kind of came up yesterday in the session of

00:40:09Straight Talk. Because most don't realize when he's saying be still, that is not a physical be still.

00:40:15I mean, it can be that, of course, but it's really a mental be still. It's your power

00:40:23under restraint because you've got the power. You got the authority. Listen, I and you could

00:40:32straighten out anybody we felt like we needed to because at some point we did, but we're at the

00:40:39point now where God doesn't want you to do that. He wants you to be still.

00:40:46Be still. Be still. Quiet your soul. Quiet your spirit. Quiet your head. Shut down the voice of

00:40:56the adversary. Shut him down because it's him saying, you're going to take that. You're going

00:41:02to let them get away with that. You need to say something. Why are you not? And that will go on

00:41:07forever unless you shut it down. And understand when the Lord says, be still, it means he got this

00:41:16and you need to let him have it because you're only going to make a mess of it. You don't shrink to fit

00:41:24in a room. You expand that room by your presence. You don't adjust to people's expectations

00:41:33or play small so they can feel comfortable around you.

00:41:40Glory to God. And so many times we don't realize there's things like that, that we don't pay enough

00:41:46attention to because we think we're being, you know, nice or courteous or, you know, just trying to make

00:41:53people feel comfortable or feel and don't even realize that you can do that. But if there's some

00:42:01evil going on in them or their evil intent or they're just not, you know, liking or doing what

00:42:05they're supposed to, you can't make them feel comfortable. Your presence is always going to be

00:42:10there and your presence is exposing. See, they only see the exposure. You don't see it, but they're

00:42:16seeing it. This is why the conflict comes and it comes right after you because you don't see what

00:42:22they see. They see it. You know, the mirror is facing them. It's not facing you. And so when they see

00:42:27that stuff and they, and then they think, oh, well, you know, you said this to me, you didn't say

00:42:33anything. Your presence did it. Glory to God. So some will, some, some will, some will, you know,

00:42:41draw to, to you with, with reverence. Thank God for those who know how to be in your presence.

00:42:47Because some really do. And there are others, okay, who will resist. And in most cases, a lot

00:42:57of times it's simply envy. It's jealousy. You know, people like what they see, but they don't want to

00:43:02do what it takes to be that. You know, you're not about applause and title or approvals. You never

00:43:10were that. You were only trying to get closer and be what God has called you to be. And the enemy

00:43:16resents that. Glory to God. Your foundation was laid by the trials. Come on now. And training,

00:43:24the isolation, you know, consecration, fasting. You don't need anybody's validation. You did what

00:43:32it takes to get to where you are. And yes, you still have a course of ways to go, but what you did

00:43:38got you this far in God and heaven. They applaud you. You don't need people to applaud. You don't

00:43:44need their validation. You know what it takes to get to where you had to get to and to where you have

00:43:50to continue to go to. And that's always going to be a problem for people who are not willing to do

00:43:56what it takes to be what they need to be. Therefore, they take it out on those who are doing what it

00:44:01takes. And you have to get above and beyond that. Don't allow it to pierce your spirit. Know that God

00:44:07is carrying you through this. He's got you. It's all about where he's taking you and you're not to

00:44:13get entangled up with the yoke of bondage of people again. Your foundation was laid by the trials and the

00:44:20training and learning how to trust God, learning how to, you know, just be quiet when you really

00:44:27wanted to just explode. All of that is God carrying you. Glory to God. Jeremiah 1 and 5,

00:44:35the NIV, Jeremiah 1, again, a familiar passage for some, but for others it may be new and you might

00:44:41want to jot it down and, you know, have it for yourself. He says, before I formed you in the womb,

00:44:48I knew you. Before you were born, I set you apart. He set you apart. That's God's doing. He said,

00:44:58I appointed you as a prophet to the nations. Glory to God. And so where you have to go,

00:45:05you're still on your way. You are still becoming. You are in the process of becoming. And we will all

00:45:13be in the process of becoming until the Lord comes back because there's so much of us that we have to

00:45:19learn. We don't know enough about ourselves. We haven't mastered this tremendous creation,

00:45:25this fearfully and wonderfully made creation that we're still learning about. And so the battles

00:45:32you had to fight, listen, would have overcome most. Most would have not been able to survive what you

00:45:41had to survive. You know that. Your presence holds centuries of unknown things, things that God has

00:45:50placed in you before you were born, before you were in your mother's womb. The ancient of days had

00:45:57already put things within. He has placed various desires and placed various gifts and all of that

00:46:06he has done because he has known you. He can carry you. Trust me, the weight that you carry, he got you.

00:46:13He can carry you. It's not too much for him. It may be too much for others, but it's not too much for him.

00:46:18Your presence holds centuries of the unknown that you're yet to come into. So much of what you carry

00:46:25is yet to be released and to come forth. And this is why God's hand of mercy and protection is upon you.

00:46:32Your very existence reveals what healing looks like. Did you know that?

00:46:38Your very existence reveals what deliverance can bring. Your presence is, remember, that cycle breaker.

00:46:46You're here on purpose. Some cycles will be ended simply because of your presence.

00:46:52Some things will never have the chance to come into fruition because of your presence,

00:46:59because of what God has already placed in you. Certain things that most people will never understand or be

00:47:05able to comprehend are resting within you. And therefore, they're jealous and envious of something

00:47:10that they don't even understand. And God will manifest. God will bring it forth. He will bring

00:47:16out what he in his time as he sees fit. Glory to God. You don't have to judge anyone. Your presence,

00:47:25okay? Your presence is a mirror. It reflects everything that they could become. They can see.

00:47:31They see you and they know that there's something about you and that they could be better, that they

00:47:37could actually become it. If they would just make some better choices and choose to, if they would

00:47:43choose truth, okay? And not their pride and arrogance, they could become those wonderful things that

00:47:50they're seeing in you. They could learn, you know, some wonderful revelation knowledge from God for

00:47:56themselves. But instead, they'd rather fight. Well, that's the adversary. This is why we do stand in

00:48:03the gap for people. We do bleed the blood of Jesus every day. I do. I do because I know in most cases, they

00:48:10have no idea what they're doing or who they're coming against. They don't realize you didn't just come

00:48:15against me. You came against the presence of God. And we have to realize that when you get that in your

00:48:21spirit, it will release you so much from unforgiveness. It will release you from ever

00:48:26holding grudges and, you know, vengeance against people because you will understand fully, you know,

00:48:33this thing that God has done concerning you and that you have the power and the compassion to intercede

00:48:41on people's behalf because they, most cases, they don't have a clue. They don't have a clue. And they're

00:48:46coming against you, not realizing you're coming against God. And at some point, God is going to

00:48:52put an end to it. You don't have to do anything. You know, your presence is spiritual gravity. It

00:48:58holds. Your calm is louder than their chaos and they don't like it. You know, they want you to be

00:49:04all up and up rage and acting crazy. Just get right along with them. But your stillness, your silent,

00:49:11that mental stillness is sacred and it's sound in the presence of God and God covers you. God protects

00:49:21you and he heals you. You know, even the harsh words and the hateful things that the enemy uses to try

00:49:28and pull you down, you know, God protects you from that. That's why you can overcome it. You can shut it

00:49:34down and continue where God has for you to go. You are the evidence of destiny. The fact that you're

00:49:41still here means your destiny is great. It's even greater. Your presence makes it too hard for

00:49:48someone to keep lying to their self because the truth of you stands before them and they'll be

00:49:57forced to see whether they admit it or not or whether they did, that's up to them. Again,

00:50:02that has nothing to do with you. You are the evidence of destiny. And when you show up,

00:50:08it makes people know that there's a better place for them to go. There's a better place. It's a

00:50:12better thing for you to do. You don't have to live like that. You don't have to act like that.

00:50:16You really could do better, but you have to choose it. That's what your presence does.

00:50:22You are that evidence. Their discomfort is not your problem. This is not about vengeance.

00:50:30It has nothing to do with you. Dishonor always comes at the cost of the one who dishonors,

00:50:40who disregards God's presence. That's going to come back to them. That has nothing to do with you.

00:50:47You were never just somebody's friend. It was never just friendship. It was never about a romance

00:50:54only or by chance in someone's, you just happen to be in someone's life. It doesn't happen that way.

00:51:02God said, I knew you before you were even born, before any of them ever knew you. Your presence

00:51:06was a divine appointment. It was an assignment. And many, they could not deal with it. They refused

00:51:14to see you for who God has made you to be. People have problems. They really do. And thank God that we

00:51:22continue to stand in the gap on their behalf. We stand in the gap. We plead the blood for them and

00:51:27hope and pray that they will. But God makes them accountable. Because again, it's not just you.

00:51:36You know, the Lord made it clear when Jesus told his disciples, it's like they're not shutting the

00:51:42door, shutting you. They're closing the door on God. Their connection to you was to awaken their

00:51:50purpose. It was to help them to see that. Guess what? You have a destiny. You have a purpose.

00:51:56There's greatness in you. Okay. It was to help them align with God for their life.

00:52:04You know, your mirror gave a lot of clarity. And that's why some folk are really having a hard time

00:52:11with you. Your presence is healing for some people. Just being in your presence brings healing.

00:52:19The enemy hates that. He hates that some folk can just be in your presence. And you don't say a lot.

00:52:26You never have to. But what you say begins to heal them. You know, I've been in the midst of people

00:52:34where tears begin to flow and healing started manifesting. You know, this is all by the presence

00:52:41of God. That's why I say it's not just you, but the presence of God does these things. And God holds

00:52:47those who come against that in a disrespectful, dishonorable manner. He holds them accountable.

00:52:55Your presence is healing for some. And for others, you know, it's just exposure. Okay. Some are ready

00:53:01for the truth that you bring. And some are not, but it's okay. You, however, never have to retaliate.

00:53:13Your purpose is in your presence. Get that in your spirit. Your purpose is in your presence.

00:53:24You don't have to chase a spotlight. You never had to do that. You never did that. You are the light.

00:53:33Matthew 5 and 14, and we're finishing up right here, where Jesus himself said, you are the light of the

00:53:40world. You don't have to worry about a spotlight. You are the light in Jesus name. Your presence is a

00:53:51privilege. God wants you to recognize and acknowledge that first. See yourself in that light. Because when

00:53:59you see it, then that will help others to see it. You know, don't ever make yourself feel that you are

00:54:06less than because of someone's behavior, because of someone's acting out and how they treat you.

00:54:12You don't allow that. That's when you allow it to pierce your spirit. And you don't allow that,

00:54:17you know, guard your heart. When we come back, we continue. And we don't just tell you these things,

00:54:23but guess what? We show you how to do it. Isn't that powerful? That not just to say, this is what

00:54:29you do, but here's how to do that. And that's what this is doing. First of all, it begins to build you

00:54:35by letting you know your presence, my dear, my man of God, my warm God, it's a privilege.

00:54:42It's not a right. It's a privilege. And those who think they are entitled to be around you,

00:54:51therefore they disrespect and dishonor you, God will cut their access and they will feel what

00:54:58they are missing. And they will understand what they've done when they no longer have

00:55:02that access. So spirit of living God, I just lift up this, your people, oh God.

00:55:08I pray that what's been torn down is now built back up as a strong fortress, as a mighty tower,

00:55:15as one who stands in the boldness and in the fullness of your word. We thank you, oh God,

00:55:21that we have been made and seated in heavenly places. And that's where our position is. And we

00:55:29thank you, dear God, that we do understand now that our presence is a privilege and not a right.

00:55:38Therefore, we'll walk in that mannerism. We'll talk in that mannerism. We'll live out what you have

00:55:44said concerning us. And we know the power will only wax stronger and greater as our very presence

00:55:52continues to defeat the works of the devil and cast him down forever in Jesus' mighty name.

00:56:00We thank you for it. We call it done. And it is so in Jesus' name. God bless you.

00:56:07We will continue coming up on Wednesday at 7 o'clock. Class is right back in session. Don't miss a word

00:56:15because God is building you up, obviously, for something greater than I think that we can even

00:56:21imagine. So let's stand fast in the word of God. Knowing this, we proceed. We continue in Jesus' name.

00:56:29God bless you. We will see you then.
