00:09:04the Word of God does. And we want to just, again, invite you to join us. We'll be coming together.
00:09:11We'll be hanging out with Pastor Shonane and Bread of Life. We love going there and being with them.
00:09:16We love the unity of the Spirit. It's wonderful to come together in the unity of the Spirit. So make
00:09:23it a point to come out and join us as we come together in Jesus' mighty name. All right. You've
00:09:29seen the title already. We are in prophetic worship. One of the most powerful things that we can talk
00:09:38about is this realm of worship and the season that we're in, the time that we've entered into,
00:09:47my goodness, is very prophetic. And we want to really kind of unpack this wonderful understanding
00:09:54of worship, but not just worship only, but prophetic worship. I believe it will bless you. And I pray right
00:10:04now that the eyes of your understanding be enlightened, that the Spirit of God will reveal
00:10:12to you personally, one-on-one, a higher level, a higher frequency of worship and understanding
00:10:23those things in Jesus' mighty name. Amen. Spirit of living God, we thank you. We receive what you have
00:10:33for us. Our hearts are open and our mind is ready to receive all that you have for us in this
00:10:43teaching, this understanding, in this Masterclass. In Jesus' name, amen and amen. All right.
00:10:53This is Masterclass. We encourage you to understand that some things may be a little challenging,
00:10:59but it is Masterclass. It's for the mature. As the scripture says, it's for those who can handle the
00:11:04meat of the word and who will always strive to go higher, will push themselves beyond the norm.
00:11:13And so as we continue now, we just left off talking about holy fire and why it is so important for you to
00:11:23activate that fire, activate that fire, utilize it, use it. That's what it's there for. So I want to read
00:11:30just a couple of more scriptures as we move into this prophetic worship coming out of the realm of holy
00:11:37fire and understanding how important this realm of holy fire is as we go into prophetic worship.
00:11:481 John chapter 2 and verse 27. The New Living Translation says,
00:11:58but you have received the Holy Spirit and he lives within you. So you don't need anyone to teach you
00:12:10what is truth. The Spirit teaches you everything you need to know. Now, as he's saying, you don't need
00:12:21teachers. You don't know that would contradict the scriptures that he gives teachers. It means there
00:12:26are some things only Holy Spirit can teach you. And when he teaches you, this is so wonderful
00:12:34because it cannot be undone. You can't undo what God has done in you. And I want you to hold on to
00:12:44that because the past few weeks, the things that we have been teaching are certainly very thought
00:12:49provoking. And it causes you to really, you know, dig deep inside and, you know, start understanding the
00:12:57power, who you are, the power of what you've endured and gone through, how you've gotten to this point in
00:13:05your life. The mask has been removed and come off and you are really seeing a very different person in
00:13:13yourself. And so understand this is the Holy Spirit. Now, some of you might remember we back up a little
00:13:20bit. We talked about the seven spirits at the altar of God, the seven manifestations of the Spirit,
00:13:27those seven realms of teaching that come to you through the power of the Holy Spirit, which you
00:13:33have. And so as we venture into this understanding of prophetic worship, I think it's very important
00:13:41for you to understand the power and the workings of Holy Spirit. I would start out by simply saying
00:13:47understanding what you've gone through. There's something sacred about what you've gone through.
00:13:53There's something sacred about your wilderness season. Do you know wilderness season is a season
00:14:01of prophetic worship? First of all, it begins to strip you down to the truth, which is so powerful
00:14:10because we're going to read the scripture that, you know, that's the only way you can worship him
00:14:13is in spirit and in truth, right? It strips you of everything, of titles, of who you have been or
00:14:22thought you were. It strips you of needing someone to validate you or confirm you. There's no applause
00:14:30in the wilderness season. You know, it's just the true power is being activated in you by the Spirit of
00:14:38God. A divine alignment fills in the empty spaces. And that, I believe, is, you know, the prayer of the
00:14:49Spirit of God to just fill every space. Leave no vacancies. You know, that is my prayer. Just fill
00:14:56every void. Leave no vacancies, you know, and take up all that space. Fully occupied. And so you begin
00:15:05to align yourself. And all these empty spaces are filled with divine companionship of the Holy Spirit.
00:15:12He is a wonderful counselor, wonderful companion. And what was a place of loneliness becomes a place
00:15:22of holiness. Glory to God. So what the enemy used to actually break you, God used it to shape you,
00:15:30to mold you, to build you. You know, a chosen person is not chosen for comfort. And I keep emphasizing
00:15:36that because somehow the impression of being chosen or someone set out and sought out by God
00:15:43seems to want to carry this realm of luxury and high living. And it's just the opposite, okay?
00:15:51You've been forged in fire, okay? Refined by the refiner's fire. You know, that rejection
00:15:59became God's chosen. Whoever rejected you should never have more impact on you than God choosing you.
00:16:11You know, you've mastered loneliness as you begin to align yourself in your wilderness season,
00:16:22which is a worship season. And worship begins to be top priority.
00:16:29Okay? And as we said before, loneliness is good because it's a detoxation. You're detoxing from all the noise,
00:16:38from all the, you know, the counterfeits, from all the things that were never supposed to be in your life
00:16:44in the first place. So again, I emphasize loneliness is a good thing. Okay? But the realm of worship we want
00:16:53to go in, it really begins problems, okay, become purpose, glory to God. And it's just a higher way of
00:17:04thinking. This is why we're going to emphasize prophetic worship. It's a higher level of thinking,
00:17:11okay? Your preparation that you went through to get to this point was not about punishment,
00:17:21okay? It was for your assignment, okay? And integrity is so necessary. You see, integrity is
00:17:31actually preparation for whatever harm wants to come your way. You're already ahead of it. That's why we're
00:17:37talking about prophetic worship puts you ahead of any attack, any assault. Prophetic worship is really
00:17:45a powerful season that's come up on us. And I believe God is really putting the awareness in your
00:17:53spirit. He's sounding the alarms to pay attention. Something different is happening and coming into
00:17:59your life. All right? You'll learn then also that patience is a strategic restraint, okay? And people
00:18:11don't understand the power of patience are so important. When scripture talks about patience, let
00:18:16patience have her perfect work. You know, what is that perfect work? Well, it reveals any deception,
00:18:25anything that would try and trick you, snare you, cause you to be off and out of alignment. That's what
00:18:35patience is so powerful. And in its perfection, it begins to reveal. So it must have. And so then
00:18:42you understand that that's where your resilience, your resilience came through patience, okay? It transforms
00:18:51that your resilience, that your resilience actually transforms attacks into harmless lessons. Let me
00:18:58say that again. When you're resilient and you refuse to stop or back off or shrink, what is happening? It
00:19:05begins to transform any attack into a harmless lesson. You begin to say, oh, wow, I get that now. It makes
00:19:14sense. So then principles and all of this is laying a foundation to understand this realm of prophetic
00:19:23worship that we're in. Very special time. I'm sure you've already sensed the very levels of power that
00:19:32have been surrounding you in your worship time. And again, this is masterclass. This is for those who are
00:19:37mature, those who have a special time of prayer and worship and who have prioritized, made sure that
00:19:44your schedule works around God's schedule rather than God having to work around your schedule. So
00:19:52this is for the mature and those who are really able to deal with what I call masterclass. All right.
00:19:59And so understanding this, again, principles, they operate on truth. Integrity and purpose
00:20:08is what the principles are very powerful. They're foundational. They're throughout the Bible from
00:20:16Genesis to Revelations. God is teaching principles because principles operate on truth. Principles
00:20:22operate on integrity. Principles operate on your purpose and not your emotions. Okay. In fact, your yes
00:20:32is for your purpose. When you yes to God and yes to, you are saying yes to your purpose. And guess what?
00:20:39Your no is your authority. It's representing your non-negotiable areas that will never change because
00:20:49they what bring you to where you need to be in the calling and purpose of God. So emotions are powerful.
00:20:56You know, understand when a confrontation or something is trying to draw out your emotions. Remember,
00:21:04you have the power and the authority over your emotions. You don't let someone's uproar, which is
00:21:10most cases they're being used by the enemy. Don't let them draw you out into an emotional,
00:21:16you know, standoff. Your emotions are too powerful for that. Don't give away your power. You'll be
00:21:25exhausted, frustrated, and all the things that come with that, and that's exactly what the enemy wants.
00:21:31You're too powerful for that. Okay. You know, give no place to the devil. Don't let the sun go down on
00:21:39your wrath, as the scripture says. Don't go to bed mad because that is a place to the enemy. And while you're
00:21:45sleeping, he's embedding all sorts of evil thoughts and things that are not of God. The devil can't
00:21:51take your place or take your space, but you can actually give it to him. As the scripture says,
00:21:56give no space. Don't do it. Don't give him an opportunity. You know, stay in prayer and supplication
00:22:04and cry out to God until that thing leaves you so that you can get a good night's sleep and you have
00:22:09sweet sleep. Glory to God. All right. Now you are free from the penalty of sin. What is the penalty
00:22:17of sin? Well, that's what Adam plunged the whole creation into that penalty, which Jesus paid the
00:22:23price of that. So you're free from the penalty of sin. Understand what I'm saying, but you've got to be
00:22:29delivered from the patterns, the habits, the routines of sin. That takes deliverance. This is why your
00:22:38ministry is so important, especially those of you who had to learn deliverance up close, up front in
00:22:46your face. You understand the importance of it. And you also know how it allowed you to move into,
00:22:52you know, the levels that God had called you to and you're in a much higher space now than you were.
00:22:58And so again, understand the power, the penalty of sin. Jesus took care of that. Jesus took care of
00:23:08that. That's why we don't keep going over and over again. You know, I think it's in, let's see,
00:23:14it might be Timothy or Titus, one of those T's where he said, we don't want to keep going back over and
00:23:19over salvation and baptisms and so on. So we want to move forward. In other words, Jesus took care of
00:23:25that. If you accept the Christ as your savior, then the penalty for sin, it's paid for through
00:23:31the blood of Jesus. Okay. But again, deliverance has to take place from those patterns of sins,
00:23:39the things the world taught us, the things we grew up with, things that keep us from,
00:23:44scripture says, we lay aside every, you know, weight and every sin that so easily besets us,
00:23:50gets you off and out of alignment. So, and the wonderful thing I've found out, and you might
00:23:56want to write this down, just something, a little quick thing that God put in my spirit, that I see
00:24:00a little pattern of it throughout the scripture is God rewards repentance. Yes, he does. He rewards
00:24:08repentance in ways, wonderful little ways that you didn't ask for, that you didn't think of.
00:24:14He's such a good father. He's such a good father. So yes, God rewards repentance. And you put that in
00:24:22your spirit and think about it from time to time. And you'll get little thoughts of when you, you
00:24:27know, simply repented and turned from, or you started to have a ugly thought, or you start to
00:24:32say something and you, no, I'm not going to say that. That's not, that's not, you know, productive.
00:24:37That's not good. And God is so gracious. He's such a good father. He rewards repentance. Okay. Because
00:24:44he wants you to behave like you believe. Amen. He simply wants you to behave like you believe. That's
00:24:54another little thought you might want to write that down. It'll bless you as we're moving into what is
00:24:59prophetic worship. Now, first of all, when you think of worship, I know when I think of worship, because
00:25:05I'm inclined to music, that's the first thing that comes to my mind is this realm of, of music
00:25:13and worship together. And it's one of the reasons why I encourage you to, when you're getting ready,
00:25:20when we're coming on with the live stream, you know, we thank God for brother John Lawton,
00:25:25because he's so faithful and so humble and he blesses us with music. It's, it's kind of,
00:25:31it's hard, it's upbeat, but at the same time, it's calming. And it puts you in a position where all
00:25:39of whatever you were doing before it was time for the live stream, it brings you into a spirit of calm,
00:25:46where you can listen. So you can pay attention and receive. That's why we encourage you to, you know,
00:25:52when, when, when you hear that music coming, get, get, get yourself seated and get comfortable. Take in
00:25:58the music realm of, uh, it's really a realm of preparation for worship. It prepares you to hear
00:26:07and to listen. So you can put away all of whatever you were doing, uh, prior to, and just, again,
00:26:15listen to the nice calming music. Uh, it's, it's very, but I tell you, I listen to it all the time
00:26:22because it's calming. It blesses you. And this is what we need so much more of that in the body of
00:26:28Christ. Yes. I'm going to talk about music in the body of Christ. I've been doing that for years
00:26:32because some of the songs are just not appropriate for worship. When you talk about worship, there's
00:26:41got to be an understanding. So I'm about to dive in. Let me just start first with the scripture.
00:26:45Let me read Matthew chapter four and verse 10, very familiar passage to some, but we want to
00:26:52again, lay a good, strong foundation, uh, for understanding the realm of worship and where
00:26:58we want to take you in this particular masterclass. All right. Matthew 4, 10 says, then Jesus,
00:27:06Yeshua, okay. Said unto him, get the hence, okay.
00:27:15Okay. For it is written, you shall worship the Lord, your God, and him only shall you serve.
00:27:28Now bear with me. I might be a little technical as some of you are, you know, that's your technical,
00:27:34whatever. But first of all, the word hence, I've heard some say, he says, get behind me, Satan,
00:27:40or, or, you know, some translated as he said, get behind me, Satan, but that's not the translation.
00:27:48And that's not what the Bible says. And nowhere in the Bible does it say, get behind me, Satan. In fact,
00:27:54the only time he said that, and I'm getting ahead of myself, but anyway, it was to Peter when he seen,
00:28:00you know, a visible reaction of Satan in a person. So let me just say that, first of all, this word
00:28:09hence, the word hence, it's, you know, in, in your strong concordance, if you want to look it up,
00:28:16you know, five, five, two, one, seven. I didn't put it on there because it's a very simple word to,
00:28:23it's not one of those, you know, words where you got to do a word search for two, three hours.
00:28:28It's very simple. It's right there. It simply means withdraw from me. Okay. It's, it means get
00:28:34out of sight, depart, get away from me. One translation says, okay. Be gone. Okay. Get
00:28:43out of my sight, out of my face. Okay. That's really what Jesus was saying. It wasn't saying
00:28:51get behind me. You don't want the devil behind you or anywhere around you. Okay. Especially
00:28:57when it comes to a realm of worship. Okay. And he made it very clear. You shall worship the Lord,
00:29:05your God and him only shall you serve. And so, yes, you want him away from you. You want the adversary
00:29:14out of sight and nowhere around, especially during your times of worship. This is why certain songs
00:29:25music is so critical in the realm of worship because music is either drawing in this beautiful
00:29:37atmosphere of worship, or it's drawing in the powers of darkness because that's what they respond to as
00:29:45well. And we'll get into that, of course, as we go through this study, because we got to understand
00:29:51how powerful worship is. It was meant for God and God alone and worship songs that don't glorify him
00:30:00is, it's not drawing what we need to happen in that worship. And so it was actually Matthew chapter 16,
00:30:0923, for those of you want to read those scriptures for yourself, Matthew chapter 16, in verse 23,
00:30:16Jesus said to Peter, get behind me, Satan. In other words, he was showing the example of how the devil
00:30:24can use people, okay, to get you off track, to make you get out of alignment with what your purpose is.
00:30:33So that's the only time he said, get behind me, Satan. Okay. He was dealing with a visible person,
00:30:39which this is different from dealing with an invisible spirit of the devil that you cannot
00:30:44see. You don't want him anywhere around you. Again, I'm just being a little technical, maybe so. But if
00:30:51you're like me, I want the full strength of the scriptures and I want to understand it as much as
00:30:57possible. All right. So we moved into John chapter four, verse 23, John chapter four, and verses 23 through
00:31:0724. It says, but the hour comes and saints, I do believe we're in this hour. That is the hour we're in
00:31:16right now. So the hour comes and now is, as he said in the scripture, when the true worshipers
00:31:26shall worship the father in spirit and in truth. For the father seeks such to worship him. And that word
00:31:37seek, it literally means he's going after, he's searching, he's going, looking for those who are
00:31:44true in their worship. So understand then that the adversary has crept into the body of Christ,
00:31:54the sanctuary, the places of God almighty, of El Elyon, not by his horns or a pitchfork,
00:32:04that would be too obvious, but subtly through music. Just as Genesis three says, he's more subtle
00:32:14than any other beast in any other entity. He knows how to creep and make his way into the various
00:32:24situation. Now, what gets me is that it has been going on so long until it actually feels like it's
00:32:34right, that it's okay. And a lot of what's going on, I don't believe it is okay. I think that something
00:32:40very necessary needs to take place so that the eyes of our understanding can be enlightened and we can
00:32:50better understand what real worship is and what is supposed to happen. God is just not telling you
00:32:59to worship just to worship. Everything is for a major purpose. It's for something that's very real
00:33:05and something that should really take place in our lives. And when we don't understand that,
00:33:12we kind of get caught in it and just go with the flow. And all right, well, let me just continue reading.
00:33:21God is a spirit, verse 24.
00:33:27It says, but the hour comes. And so the hour is here. It's upon us. It's now, according to the scriptures.
00:33:34And God is a spirit. They that worship him must, so it gives no way for anything, must worship him in spirit
00:33:42and in truth. If we understand that's one of the reasons why we have to have a spirit, because without
00:33:50a spirit, if we weren't spirit, soul and body, we would not be able to worship. So just the fact
00:33:55that he's a spirit, all the angels, all of his invisible creation, they are spirits and they, that's
00:34:01how they're able to worship him. So then music is crucial to worship songs and lyrics. Now I have been
00:34:11into services where I was just, I'm like, wow. Now there's this, there's wonderful, beautiful music
00:34:20songs that worship and glorify God. God is the focus. And then there are those that are not, it's all
00:34:28about the flesh. And many of you, you've seen it. I don't have to, you know, try and draw a picture of
00:34:36it. Cause you've seen it for yourself. You know, when a person is up singing or whatever their,
00:34:41you know, role is at that point. Um, if everybody's go ahead saying, oh, they sang and all of that.
00:34:49And where is all the attention? Where's the focus going to, you know, my Bible says he will not give
00:34:55his glory. He will not share his glory with another and all the accolades and all the attention is going
00:35:03to the person. Yes, they're, they've got it going on, but is that worship? Now I've made it very
00:35:09clear. I know that music is for our joy and there is a time for that. Absolutely. I agree that some
00:35:16folk, they got such powerful vocals and roles and you name, that's wonderful. That's skillful and God
00:35:25gifted them and blessed them like that. Uh, but there's a time for that. And when it's time for worship,
00:35:32that is inappropriate and some are going to have problems with that, but we're talking about
00:35:38prophetic worship and we're going to really unpack and get down to the real root of what's going on.
00:35:44Many of the songs are dressed up as holiness, supposedly to appeal and attract what they say.
00:35:53Well, it's to attract the loss or the unsaved or to get the youth attention. Uh, you know,
00:35:59God has given the word for how to reach people. And it was never meant that we should set up
00:36:07songs that supposed to worship God, uh, as onto people. And again, it's going to be rough for some
00:36:14to swallow, but again, this is masterclass. And if we're going to, when you see where we're headed
00:36:19with this realm of prophetic worship, you'll see why it's so necessary and why this quote unquote
00:36:25technicalities should be important or mean anything, especially when we visit, uh, visit Ezekiel 28 and
00:36:33see exactly what happened then and how it's taking place right now in a church, in the body of Christ.
00:36:42Yes. Some of these songs, they sound innocent. Some even mentioned the name of Jesus,
00:36:51but it's not in reverence. It's really about the culture. It's about the culture and our culture
00:37:00is notorious for it. Okay. Anything, the Bible says, anything not planted by God,
00:37:09the roots are poisonous. Therefore in Matthew 15 and 13, and we're going to make sure we're
00:37:22foundational with our scriptures for everything we say. The scripture says in Matthew 15, 13,
00:37:30every plant, which my heavenly father has not planted shall be rooted up and cast out.
00:37:41So again, and I'm starting to see this take place, especially in quote unquote Christian done,
00:37:47because I don't call myself a Christian. There's a whole lot of problems with that.
00:37:52And at some point they'll catch up and see what that's all about. Uh, let's take a look at second
00:37:58Corinthians 11 and 14 while I'm in my scriptures. Let's make sure we have foundational word for what
00:38:04is being said here. Because a lot of things are not, it's not, it's not what God planted.
00:38:12Second Corinthians 11, 14 says, and, and no, no marvel or no wonder. Okay. Don't be surprised.
00:38:21This is for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore, it is no great thing for his
00:38:33ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness, whose end shall be according to
00:38:45their works. This is very serious because this is why we start out talking about understanding the
00:38:53power of the Holy ghost is with you to teach you, to help you discern and to know what you should allow
00:39:00in your spirit and what should never have access to your spirit. Because we are in a, this is a war
00:39:10we're in, it is a battle and the enemy is doing whatever he can to take ground and to deceive and cause
00:39:19people to go astray. And I am convinced that real music that is ordained and sent of God, it transforms,
00:39:29it changes, it strengthens, it builds up God's people. It causes them to go to a higher level,
00:39:39to do exploits as the scripture says, to lay hands, to do all those things that the Bible says. And when
00:39:46the proper worship is not, because that's really worship, it's not just worship. There's so much
00:39:53more to it. The power that is infused in you through worship, all of these things begin to take place
00:40:00when it's when it's real worship. So music, because it's a big part, a major part of, we have to address
00:40:10it. We have to see where are we going with this. Okay. Because the enemies of the cross, they don't
00:40:19always appear to be devils or enemies. They masquerade themselves as ministers of music or worship leaders.
00:40:28And too much focus and attention is on the people rather than God. Believers throughout the church
00:40:45world participate in music and lyrics that are simply not from heaven. Now, I remember I addressed this
00:40:55some years ago. I was in a conference and taught that, you know, worship is intimacy with God.
00:41:05It is intimacy with God. Now, Paul even takes it as far as liking onto a husband and a wife in the book
00:41:15of Romans. It's like a marriage, a coming together. And when you're in intimate with a husband or your wife,
00:41:25you don't want your husband or your wife talking about another person that they were with or another
00:41:37woman or another man. That's inappropriate in the moment of intimacy. So how much more
00:41:47when you're in worship unto God? How inappropriate is it to sing a song that includes the devil?
00:41:58You know, Satan. Well, wait a minute.
00:42:04I don't want to talk about Satan if I'm in intimate worship with God and I'm sure God doesn't want.
00:42:13So what is worship then? What are we calling this? What are we doing? And wondering why the church is
00:42:21not growing. Why is the body of Christ not mature enough to be beyond the bickering and the division
00:42:28and the backbiting and the gossip and all the things that are still going on? Because there's not real
00:42:34worship. Real worship diminishes, destroys, attacks, goes after those things. Real worship is the most
00:42:43serious realm of warfare. The enemy, no wonder he would attack this area of all areas because that's
00:42:50where he began. That's where it really hits him below the belt and he can't stand it. So of course he would
00:42:58attack real worship. And people are not aware of it. It's very subtle. And I wonder why is there no
00:43:07growth? I'm telling you, visit some of the places, some of the churches that you've been in or once in,
00:43:12and I do. Nothing has changed. No growth, no revelation, no nothing, just all the same.
00:43:27And yes, envy and jealousy, which I call boomerangs, which come right back at them. And again,
00:43:33they're never getting anywhere, never growing. It's amazing. Take a look at James chapter one and 17.
00:43:39We're going to get into some real deep areas. And again, this is for the mature. This is not for
00:43:45those who get offended and think, oh, well, that's just too technical or that's just, this is for the
00:43:51mature. Those who God will absolutely endow with power from on high and use in these last days.
00:44:00Absolutely. That's who it's for. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above. Now he has James
00:44:14one and seven. I hope that's correct. I have James one and 17. Somebody might want to check that for me
00:44:21just to make sure it's right. Because sometimes I write too fast and I don't get it right. So,
00:44:25all right. Every good and every good gift, you with me still, and every perfect gift, mature
00:44:34is from above and comes down from the father of lights with whom is no variableness or no,
00:44:43you know, changing. He never changes. There's no variations. He neither. There's neither a shadow
00:44:55of turning. What he said then he means now. Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, and forever.
00:45:03All right. So then music that does not come from above comes from below. There's no other place
00:45:11for it to come from. And it's inspired by hell. And that's getting into people. And that's why
00:45:19the body of Christ is not growing. It's why there's no revelation knowledge. There's no signs. There's no
00:45:25wonders. There's no miraculous healings. Miracle signs and wonders seem to be vanished from the church
00:45:32because they won't check and deal with these areas of what needs to take place during what
00:45:40they call worship. All right. Thank you, my folks are checking, doing that scripture check. Thank you.
00:45:47I appreciate it. So then it seems like this is not that important. I'm telling you it is one of the
00:45:58most important areas that we can attack in these, what we call master classes. Okay. It's extremely,
00:46:06this is not a small matter or just being too technical. Worship must be unto God or it's unto
00:46:13Satan. Do you understand that worship is not for entertainment? It's spiritual warfare and growth
00:46:23in maturity so that you can conceive. There should be a conception taking place during real worship.
00:46:32What you sing are words to shape your belief. Your belief determines your behavior. So heaven inspired
00:46:47music and songs produce genuine worship, genuine growth, genuine miracles, signs and wonders, healings,
00:46:59deliverance. All of these things need to be taking place and they're not because it's got to be
00:47:07genuine worship, real work. The father seeks such to worship him. It's got to be coming from heaven.
00:47:15Glory to God. True worship is being lost because of the culture and what we call, you know, good singing
00:47:30and cool and bad and that's the, we have so allowed the culture to dominate the word of God and it is
00:47:40not manifesting because the culture is taking over. I once sat in a conference teaching for pastors and
00:47:50they actually laid out, this is what blows me away. They laid out how you should preach and then bring the
00:48:01music in and then stir. And I sat there and I was in awe. I'm like, oh my God, they really believe this
00:48:08is how you're supposed to preach. And everybody who doesn't preach like that, it's not really preaching.
00:48:20And okay, let's say, okay, so let's say that's right. Where are the miracles? Where are the signs and wonders?
00:48:28How come nothing is taking place during this kind of cultural understanding of preaching and worship and
00:48:37music? And I mean, since you're taking up charging these to come in and be taught something that should
00:48:48be producing and it's not, there ought to be a question mark there somewhere. Somebody ought to be
00:48:54saying, wait a minute, wait a minute. Okay. So, I mean, this is very serious. The so-called gospel music
00:49:03or praise and worship, what is being produced here? See, we're not, this is, again, this is only for the
00:49:13mature. This is for those who are grown enough to say, you know what? Something needs to be coming out of
00:49:19what we're doing. Otherwise, what are we doing? Worship in its original intent was meant to be, of course,
00:49:28unto God, not people, not to get people to go along with you, not to get people to, hey, yeah, go,
00:49:35there you go. That wasn't, that's not the original intent. It's not for the world. It's, it's not to
00:49:46entertain to, to get people's, you know, attention. I mean, if they do get attention, they should be able
00:49:53to receive something from it. You shall worship God and him alone. Isaiah 43 and 21, Isaiah 43
00:50:03and 21, and we're just scraping the surface. You have, I really hope you'll stick with me because
00:50:09when you step into this realm of fully understanding, so you won't feel like, oh, I must not be this or I
00:50:16must not be that if I don't do it the way they say, if I don't do this or if I don't do, no, you're
00:50:21going to be free from that in Jesus name. Now, Isaiah 43 and 21 says, this people have I formed for
00:50:28myself. They shall show forth my praise. It's unto God. It is unto God. It's not unto me. It's not about,
00:50:41you know, someone telling you what you need to do. When you have a relationship with the Lord,
00:50:47your God with the most high, Jehovah Misi, when you are in relationship, Jehovah Rapha,
00:50:57when you are in relationship, El El Yon, Yeshua, Hamashiach, when you really have a relationship,
00:51:04you don't need someone to tell you how to be intimate with your God. When you really have a
00:51:11relationship, when you're with, okay, husband and wives, when you're intimate, do you need
00:51:16somebody coaching on the side saying, come on, come on? That's really the culture. We've got to be
00:51:28aware. We've got to deal with this. We've got to understand why what the Bible says should be
00:51:34happening. It's not happening. And we have to stop excusing ourselves and justifying what's not
00:51:43producing anything. This is unto God. Okay. We were designed for the purpose of worship. He says,
00:51:53I have set this people aside for me. Your design is to worship unto God, who is a spirit, not people who
00:52:03are flesh from the beginning of, of its conception. Worship was holy and unto God and him alone was not to
00:52:16try and, you know, coach people and get them to go along with you. I mean, it's, it's something that
00:52:24we really have to consider. I know this is rough for some because it's been going on for so long.
00:52:31And that to me is why you should be questioning. You know, when God calls for worship, it's beyond
00:52:40worship is intimacy, intimacy. When a husband and wife become intimate, they, they're a conception
00:52:49takes place. They become pregnant with something of great expectation. And this is not happening in
00:52:57the worship in the body of Christ. True deliverance, breathe songs of worship to God. Okay. The God of
00:53:07deliverance, the God of healing, the God of mercy. Think about Miriam's song. And when, when they crossed
00:53:14the Red Sea and they were safe and Pharaoh's army was drowning, Miriam's songs were worship unto God.
00:53:22Scripture says, scripture says she took the tambourine and she led the congregation and they began to worship
00:53:28God and praise God for, for the deliverance and bringing them through. Think about Hannah. Oh, I could
00:53:36just go on a Hannah song when she was finally blessed to give birth to Samuel, who became one of the greatest
00:53:43prophets of the prophets of the nation of Israel. I could go on David's songs, song after song, after
00:53:50psalm written by him. He got so excited. He danced until his clothes fell off because he was dancing
00:53:58before God for the return of the Ark of the Covenant. Everything was unto God. No wonder they did such
00:54:05major things. No wonder so much took place because it was unto God and not unto man. It was not about,
00:54:14you know, when, when we come together, we should be able to really, again, first of all, there needs
00:54:22to be teaching. There's not enough teaching in the body of Christ. It's just come together and scream
00:54:27and holler and music and loud and, and, and the teaching needs to take place because without the
00:54:35word being taught, then the five fold is not being fulfilled as it was given according to the scripture.
00:54:42This is a lot I know, but if we are going to see the scriptures be fulfilled in us, we got to get real
00:54:51about this thing. We got to realize it. Is this okay? What are we doing? Is it really okay?
00:54:56What has developed out of that other than a lot of proud and haughty spirits that people see something
00:55:07beyond, you know, what really should be taking place? I look again at Miriam, at Hannah, at David. These
00:55:19are all overflowing from the spirit, from their spirit unto God. That's what made it
00:55:26worship because it was in spirit. And that's how we worship in spirit and in truth. If, if, if God has,
00:55:35has really entered the lives of his people in the way that the scripture says, then when we come
00:55:42together, it just should be automatic to just start worshiping, to just start worshiping, to just start,
00:55:48Lord, we thank you. Now, corporate worship is more difficult than, you know, private worship because
00:55:56everybody has a different idea on how they think worship, but you know, I don't care how many
00:56:00different ideas there is. There's only one word. There's the Bible. And that's pretty clear that we
00:56:05worship him in spirit and in truth and him alone shall we worship. So John 10, 10, and I'm going to stop
00:56:11there and we get into Ezekiel. We're going to see where all of this came from. We're going to get such a good,
00:56:16clear view, such a good understanding so that when you understand that real worship, you can start
00:56:23expecting you, you, you, you become someone with full expectations of what's about to happen. John 10,
00:56:3010 says the thief comes, right? As he come not, but to still kill and destroy. And Satan, the thief has
00:56:39come into the church and has stolen what was meant to be unto God and God alone. He has stolen for
00:56:49himself because he lusts and craves and longs for worship. And when we come back, we'll go through
00:56:56these scriptures. Wednesday night will be a big night for understanding. And in fact, even what we've
00:57:02already given us vision ahead, we're, we're already looking at our good Friday service coming up by the
00:57:10grace of God will not be about, you know, food and breakfast. It'll be all about deliverance and
00:57:16breakthroughs. We're going to see miracle signs and wonders. I'm telling you, it's going to be the word
00:57:22of God. And that's what we have to stand on. We're going to get the kind of breakthroughs that the
00:57:26scripture talks about, but we have to make the word of God first and foundational in everything
00:57:33we do. People are going to get healed, delivered, saved, and set free because the word of God says
00:57:39it, but we have to do it. We can't just have our own cultural ways and think that God is going to
00:57:46move in that. The enemy is the only one benefiting from that, but that's all changing in the name of
00:57:52Jesus. We shall go forth and we will see the glory of the Lord in Jesus mighty name. We'll be back on
00:58:02Wednesday, starting again, prompt at seven. Uh, we're going to introduce to you what real prophetic
00:58:08worship looks like and what really happens from it. I believe some of you are already there. I really
00:58:14do. I really believe that some of you are already there and we're going to all go in even deeper
00:58:20as God begins to bless in this words of spirit of living God. Thank you. Thank you for revelation
00:58:26knowledge. Thank you for helping us to see and opening our eyes so that we can step into this
00:58:33area of worship in ways we've never seen before. I believe things are going to happen like we have
00:58:42never seen before. And we thank you in advance. Our hearts and minds are prepared for it and we shall see
00:58:49the glory of God in Jesus name. God bless you. We look forward to our time together. Don't miss it.
00:58:56These are very crucial and very important classes. It'll change your life forever. God bless you. We'll see
00:59:02you then.
