00:00:00Let's go.
00:07:14We hope to see you there.
00:09:55Greetings.
00:10:25Greetings.
00:22:28Do it with joy and appreciation for what he has done for you.
00:22:33in Jesus' name. We will talk more about Passover when we come together as a family, praise God,
00:22:42and we will continue in this wonderful celebration of the feast of our Lord and Savior,
00:22:50Jesus Christ. We are also in the master class of kingdom presence, and we want to continue in that.
00:22:59Why? It is of uttermost importance that we continue the message of the kingdom. So welcome to master
00:23:07class. Welcome to the time that really speaks to the level of your gifting and your calling.
00:23:16Saints, let me tell you something. Religion can never meet the capacity of what you've been called
00:23:24to. This is why we are coming against it in every breath and opportunity we have so that God's
00:23:30people can get released and free and step into the fullness of what they've been called to. Yes,
00:23:37it's controversy. Of course it is. It's provocative because this whole Christian religious thing
00:23:43is global. It's so widespread that people don't even know how to accept it. As I've said before,
00:23:50kingdom is the big white elephant in the room. It's throughout the scriptures from beginning to
00:23:56end, but it seems the body of Christ doesn't know what to do with it. And so when they speak
00:24:02of it,
00:24:02it's from a religious point of view, and that's not going to get it. As I've said before, we cannot
00:24:09have one leg in religion and the other leg in kingdom. We will not see the fullness of what God
00:24:17has for
00:24:18us. So we have to regain our full identity so we can walk in the fullness of what God has
00:24:28called us to
00:24:29in Jesus mighty name. You know, I look at the word of God and as we continue in kingdom presence,
00:24:37we've spoken so many times about the importance of your presence. We continue to rehearse the same
00:24:46scriptures because repetition because repetition is the mother of learning. And hopefully it will begin
00:24:51to resonate in your spirit. You know, when we declared in Corinthians that know you not that you
00:24:58are the temple of God, the most high, that we must become more conscious, more aware of what we carry.
00:25:08And so again, if your faith makes you less effective, then you must align it with the kingdom and not
00:25:21religion because your faith is supposed to be filled with the fullness of God and his word. Kingdom never
00:25:30reduces your capacity. It actually increases it that you are able to enlarge your territory to receive
00:25:39more of what God has called you to. As I said before, many don't understand the realm of kingdom works
00:25:47within us. Some 30, some 60, some a hundred fold. That's not a category for some being only 30 or
00:25:57only.
00:25:57It's the process in growing until you get to the point of 100 fold. Everyone is not all at the
00:26:05same
00:26:06amount or same capacity, but that's up to you. That's the wonderful thing about it. You get to decide
00:26:14the fullness and walking in the greater of the kingdom of God. And so when you realize that,
00:26:22you know, religion, it's very content. It's all about applause and people, you know, seeing you and
00:26:33being seen and being heard. Jesus went through that when he was describing the scribes and the Pharisees,
00:26:40how they wear long robes and they're on the corners and they want to be, they need to be seen
00:26:46to validate their so-called, again, religion. Okay. Whereas kingdom commands results. It doesn't need
00:26:55applaud. It needs results. Religion is about recognition. Kingdom requires responsibility.
00:27:02What a difference. Religion needs acceptance. Kingdom brings transformation. Major difference.
00:27:11If faith expressed through a religious lens will always meet resistance. You're going to always
00:27:20have a hard time. If you try and present your presence from a religious perspective, there's
00:27:29always going to be that kind of opposition. You have to realize kingdom is far more powerful than that.
00:27:35And because we have presented our presence through a religious eye, through a religious understanding.
00:27:42And we think, well, it's, you know, because of our, you know, faith or what we believe, or,
00:27:48you know, the devil, this and the devil, that the truth of the matter is people of God, as I
00:27:52said before,
00:27:53you can't have one foot in religion and the other in kingdom. It does not work. And it's why we're
00:28:00not
00:28:00effective in presenting and representing the kingdom of God by the word of God and what it actually says.
00:28:09And so we'll always meet resistance. And see, most people, they're not hostile to God,
00:28:16but they are hostile to religion and its irrelevance. And it has failed so many in so many ways.
00:28:26And that the last thing you want to bring in your presence, because your presence, first of all,
00:28:33is sacred. It's going to take you some time to get used to even hearing this. Because when I began
00:28:39to hear it, it took, I don't know how long for me to actually grasp and grip what the spirit
00:28:45of God
00:28:45was saying concerning our presence and how important it is. If you are, listen, conscious and aware of the
00:28:54importance of the presence of God, how much more should you be conscious? Conscious and very much
00:29:02aware of your very own presence, which is carrying the very presence of God. You can't even separate the
00:29:12two. Kingdom will invite questions that benefit both the believer as well as yourself. Kingdom answers
00:29:23the question. Not about religion or even your church, but your source of your presence. What makes
00:29:33you different? What causes them this discomfort? It will put things in better perspective than, again,
00:29:42this whole religious mindset. What are we working on? We're working on a kingdom mindset to drive out
00:29:51the spirits of religion, religiosity, Christianity. I'll say it again. I continue to tell you,
00:29:59Christianity is a religion. Just think about it. Just, I mean, if you have to go to a library or
00:30:04somewhere and you're going to look for the religious section, that's what it'll say. It'll say religious,
00:30:10you know, section, religious books, so on and so forth. And you'll see all the religions that are
00:30:17listed there. Like I said, whether it be Buddhism or Judaism, Islam, you know, Hindu, it just goes on and
00:30:26on. And now think about this people of God right there in the midst listed with all the religions is
00:30:35Christianity. At what point does God become common ground with all these false religions? Because we've
00:30:47said it over and over again, God is not religious. Don't you see how every conflict Jesus had was with
00:30:54the religious? He deliberately would have these conflicts and disagreements because he was coming
00:31:02to show that it was not about a religion. It was all about his kingdom. Glory to God. And that
00:31:09is the
00:31:09message that we have been commissioned to bring forth. And it must be, Jesus said, I must preach
00:31:17the gospel of the kingdom. This is Jesus saying, so how much more should we be about our father's
00:31:27business of the kingdom? All right. Matthew 10 and 16, we'll keep going. We'll keep trying. You know,
00:31:35I know it sounds repetitious, but it's what's going to drive this spirit out. And then you'll begin to
00:31:40realize how much more effective you become. Little by little, you'll see your effectiveness began
00:31:47to really take height. Jesus said, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves.
00:31:58Be wise as serpents and harmless as doves. Now, when you think about it, that seems to be scary
00:32:07in terms of your faith and your testimony and what you're representing. But think about it. Wolves,
00:32:15they love sheep. I mean, that's their meal. That's what they eat. And so if we're presenting
00:32:22the realm of kingdom, it should actually draw them to us. But if you, you know, religion,
00:32:30yeah, then they're going to really rip and tear that apart because we are not here to represent a
00:32:37religion. All right. Wisdom is kingdom intelligence. You might want to write that down. Wisdom is kingdom
00:32:47intelligence. It teaches you how to be harmless. Okay. Because the harmless is, that's the character
00:32:57of the kingdom. That's the character of the king. Okay. And so when you see him saying be, you know,
00:33:05wise as serpents, but harmless, this is kingdom intelligence. Wisdom is kingdom intelligence.
00:33:15Harmless is kingdom character. So both are required. Being loud is not necessary when you understand
00:33:24the intelligence of the kingdom that you represent. In fact, alignment is all you need to do. And this
00:33:33is what we're doing, people of God. We're coming into alignment. We are aligning ourself in such a manner
00:33:41that if you would take this word, meditate, study it, get it in your spirit. I can promise you. And
00:33:49just as the scripture has already, you know, guaranteed, you will be everything God has called
00:33:55you to be. It's just that simple. It's just as much as taking off a filthy garment and putting on
00:34:02the
00:34:02glorious garment of the Lord. It's getting rid of what is not of God and taking on what is of
00:34:09God.
00:34:10All right. And so when, when kingdom is present, explanations are unnecessary. You know, your
00:34:19presence is going to change and be transformed as you continue to walk in this word of God,
00:34:26religious methods, they're failing, not because God is rejected, but religion is rejected. People are not
00:34:36created for religion. They were created to rule, to have dominion. That's their original creation.
00:34:46And religion has taken the place of it and has caused people to think that they don't want God,
00:34:54unbelievers or sinners, whatever you want to call. Yes, they do. The same void that you had that led you
00:35:00to Christ is there for them, but we keep bringing them religion and they don't want it. Influence does
00:35:09not start with behavior. It starts with identity. Do you hear that? I think you might want to write
00:35:15that down. Influence does not start with your behavior. You think because you can act a certain
00:35:23way that's supposed to get people? Not really. I know a lot of unsaved people live way better than
00:35:29quote unquote saved people. So we won't even go there. Influence does not start with behavior.
00:35:36It starts with identity. That's what we're working on right now. We have to get back our identity.
00:35:45Can I say it again? Influence does not start with behavior. It starts with identity. Identity is so
00:35:57important. And we, the body of Christ, the church has got to get their true identity back. I'll say it
00:36:09again. Influence does not start with behavior. It starts with identity. It's not because you don't
00:36:21drink or you don't smoke or you don't do. People are not impressed with that at all because they know
00:36:29plenty of people who are not confessing Christ who live like that already. We've got to get our true
00:36:36identity back because that's what's going to show for the kind of representation that will honor your
00:36:44identity. Identity always, well, this is something good too. You got to write this down. Identity
00:36:51always precedes authority. Okay. Identity always precedes authority. Now I was driving just the other day
00:37:05and I wondering why all the traffic was slowing down. And I was, you know, ready to pull up around
00:37:11them. And then I saw on the side of this, of the car that had everybody drunk. It was a
00:37:16police officer.
00:37:17Okay. When I saw his identity, I figured, okay, I guess I won't pass him either because nobody else was.
00:37:25Identity always precedes authority. Okay. It's because of his identity. Watch this.
00:37:34I respected the authority. Do you get that? We have the authority, but we have messed up our identity.
00:37:44When we get our identity back, you're going to see a major difference. You cannot exercise what you are
00:37:53not conscious of even having. You don't even realize that spiritually. I know naturally people don't get that.
00:38:01Spiritually taking on the identity of a religious Christianity. Religion has not, that is not your
00:38:11identity. It is not. And it shows throughout your, you know, life. It goes on and on everywhere
00:38:21because spiritually that is not our identity. I'll say it again. This whole membership, church membership.
00:38:29Membership is by permission. Citizenship is by right. Legal rights. Power with a legal right to do it.
00:38:39That's what citizenship is. When you confuse the two, you undermine your own effectiveness. And this is
00:38:47what has been happening. I'll read Ephesians chapter two and verse 19. And if I'm going too fast, it's okay.
00:38:53Watch this again. Watch this again. You'll want to, because you're going to need as much of the
00:38:58revelation to pour into your spirit as God has for you, as he's allowing you to hear this.
00:39:06Ephesians 2.19. So now you Gentiles are no longer strangers or foreigners.
00:39:14You are citizens along with all of God's holy people. You get that?
00:39:26Your only membership is a member of the family of God. That's the only membership you have.
00:39:34As citizens of his kingdom, you are a member of his holy family. Citizenship defines your access.
00:39:44Why? It's your identity. It's your protection. It's your authority. You don't apologize for your
00:39:54values. You don't shrink back to survive. That's not humility. That's ignorance of identity.
00:40:04You don't try and make people feel comfortable by stooping to their level so they'll be okay.
00:40:10That's not humility. That's ignorance of identity. Identity always precedes authority.
00:40:20You have been presenting yourself as a religious person and it is not working.
00:40:25Wake up, body of Christ. Get your real identity back. And you won't be beholden and bowing and
00:40:33shrinking back to anybody because your authority comes from a much higher source than what you've
00:40:42been looking at here in this earth. Again, citizens are of his kingdom. You are of the kingdom of God.
00:40:52Again, your access, everything about it. Humility does not mean insecurity, but rather accuracy. You're
00:41:00accurate in who you are. When you have the full identity and accuracy of who you are, humility is
00:41:10just a natural part of you. You don't have to be arrogant and boast of anything because your identity
00:41:16goes before you, it's already taken care of. It speaks for itself. Accuracy. When it's accurate,
00:41:25it produces the kind of boldness. Therefore, you don't need any arrogance. When authority is real,
00:41:33it does not need to be defended because first of all, it becomes undeniable.
00:41:40Matthew 7 and 28, Matthew chapter 7 and 28 says, and it came to pass when Jesus had ended these
00:41:47sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine. Why? Why were they so astonished? For he taught them
00:41:57as one having authority and not as the scribes. The scribes would use threats and fears to make people
00:42:07do what they needed or to listen to them, okay? The authority spoke for itself and Jesus, all he had
00:42:16to do was speak from the place of authority given to him by God Almighty. That same thing works for
00:42:22you
00:42:23if you will walk in it. Citizenship is, you know, it's to understand these things and understand your,
00:42:34you know, identity because that's connected to your source. If you mess up your identity, you miss and miss the
00:42:42source. Who is your source? The one who sent you, okay? And whose presence you carry, okay? And he is
00:42:57responsible for wherever he sends you. When you walk in that, you walk in the fact that I know who
00:43:04sent me,
00:43:05I know who called me, okay? I know who I represent, okay? And I know who's responsible for me.
00:43:13This gets rid of any kind of fear and arrogance and boasting, any of that. You don't need it because
00:43:19it's no longer present. John 20 and 21, John chapter 20 verse 21 says, and the father has sent me
00:43:29as the
00:43:30father, sorry. He says, as the father has sent me, I also send you. Now this statement, people of God
00:43:38destroys fear and rejection because you've got the one greater than anything. There's nothing higher
00:43:46than El Elyon and he has sent you, okay? You don't need validation from anyone. You already have
00:43:54authorization from the king, from God, the father, okay? So this should begin to change your whole
00:44:03attitude and your entire approach because it has nothing to do with religion. Religion is powerless.
00:44:09It's ineffective. It's ineffective and it annoys people more than it draws people. Members protect
00:44:16their positions because they're insecure and unlearned, whereas citizens protect their purpose.
00:44:27They walk in it no matter what. Members compete. Citizens collaborate. They work together. Members ask,
00:44:37how do I keep my job? How do I keep my position? Citizens ask, what are the problems there that
00:44:46I'm
00:44:47assigned to solve? What do I need to do here to change this situation? You see, members speak with
00:44:53uncertainty while citizens speak with clarity. Why? They know who sent them. They know what they're here
00:45:01for and know what they're responsible. They speak with responsibility, okay? Not because citizens are superior,
00:45:09but they are accountable and they have a clarity in terms of their identity. Religion does not.
00:45:20Governments are accountable for results. According to Matthew 5 and 13, you are the salt of the earth.
00:45:27You are the salt of the earth. Salt does not beg food to accept it. Salt influences it by contact.
00:45:40Upon contact,
00:45:41it's done. Salt also preserves. It enhances. It transforms very quietly. If it loses its flavor, it's useless.
00:45:55And when we give up our identity for a religious thing that has gone on for, I don't know how
00:46:06long now,
00:46:06thousands of years, we're useless, ineffective, without influence. You know, flavor is the identity of salt.
00:46:20Without flavor. Without flavor, it has no influence. Think about it. Christians have no flavor.
00:46:31Christianity has no flavor. It has no identity. It has no distinction. When you look and see what is
00:46:39happening in Christianity, it's happening in Christianity. It's any and all. I was watching
00:46:47a interview of a person who was justifying homosexuality and he took and, you know,
00:46:57used the scripture. He says, well, as a Christian, I know the scripture says there are no male and female
00:47:04in Christ. He was literally taking the scripture to justify. And I'm saying, nowadays, any and everyone
00:47:14is a Christian. Because that's how religion works. And it will justify. It will do whatever it wants.
00:47:25Because religion is a spirit of the devil. It does not come from God. It's why Jesus always came against
00:47:35the religious. John 7 and 38. And this is so important because I know different ones think I'm being too
00:47:46too technical. You know, well, we do this, but, and we don't see where it's so bad or so this.
00:47:54And so that
00:47:54as long as we do that, all of those, again, justifying something that has caused such
00:48:02ineffectiveness in the body of Christ. John 7 and verse 38 says, he that believes, this is Jesus.
00:48:09He says, whoever believes on me, as the scripture says, not the way you want it to be, not as
00:48:20the
00:48:21scripture. In other words, out of your belly shall flow rivers of living water. You know, you can't
00:48:28take the word of God and make it how you want it to be. And a lot of times when
00:48:34we are compromising,
00:48:35we don't realize we're not taking the word of God as the scripture says it to be. And we cannot
00:48:44be
00:48:44effective when we do that. You know, the one thing about water is it flows and it fills. It flows
00:48:50and
00:48:51it will fill. And when the word of God is pure and, you know, undefiled, it flows and it will
00:48:58fill. But it
00:49:00cannot be, you know, compromise and set up and fix the way we want and make it adjust to us.
00:49:07No,
00:49:08we must adjust to it. And kingdom citizens are not disposable. They are essential. When you bring value,
00:49:19systems depend on you. When systems depend on you, authority begins to follow you.
00:49:27But it has to be, again, from the word of God as he has given. As he was sent, he
00:49:34says,
00:49:34that's the way I'm sending you. I think of Daniel in chapter 2, the book of Daniel chapter 2 and
00:49:41verse
00:49:4148 says, then the king promoted Daniel and gave him many gifts and made him ruler over the whole
00:49:50province because Daniel was not about a religion. He was about effectiveness. He functioned
00:49:58because Daniel had a citizen mentality, not a captive, you know, woe is me victim mentality.
00:50:07He was physically captive in Babylon, yet he was never psychologically imprisoned in his mind.
00:50:15His loyalty was clear, his excellence, okay? Constraint and his wisdom was unmatched. The king had to say
00:50:24that himself. He became so well-skilled in what he was there to do that the king had to position
00:50:32him
00:50:32over even all those that he was once under. This is powerful. When you start seeking kingdom in the way
00:50:40Jesus said, your skills automatically become sharpened. You start to come into the fullness.
00:50:47You know that's not happening in quote-unquote Christianity. You know that's not happening in
00:50:53religion. You know, the citizen liberates you from the need to try to impress somebody. When you know who
00:51:00you are, you don't perform. You know, you function from your purpose, you know, not from their compliments
00:51:08or whatever. Performance is insecurity. You're trying to survive. Function is identity. I know who I am,
00:51:18and it expresses to fulfill your purpose. Philippians 1 and 27, and I think I'll read the NLT,
00:51:26the New Living Translation, Philippians 1, and verse 27 says, above all, you must live as citizens
00:51:34of heaven. Why? Because that's your origin. That's where you came from. Why? Conducting yourselves,
00:51:42and I see somebody put KCOC. You're ahead of me. That's good. You're falling right ahead, okay?
00:51:48Conducting. Conducting. Conducting. That's the kingdom code of conduct. Conducting yourselves in a
00:51:56manner worthy of the gospel of Christ, worthy of this tremendous sacrifice that we all are observing
00:52:06in this, the Passover, this, what they call the Holy Week. People of God, I just don't understand
00:52:14how scholars, how theologians, how bishops, people who know and understand the scriptures. How can we
00:52:24take the most important, the most sacred, the holiest time of the year where Christ laid down his life for
00:52:34the world? And we call it by a pagan god of fertility, an idol worship, idol god, Easter. It's not
00:52:50Easter Sunday.
00:52:51It's the resurrection of the Lord. To me, to say Easter is an assault on the kingdom of God. It's
00:53:01an
00:53:01insult to the blood of Jesus using a term that has nothing to do with what took place on Mount
00:53:11Calvary, the cross and the blood of Jesus. So look at what the adversary is doing. And the body of
00:53:18Christ
00:53:19just flows and goes right along with it. And we wonder why we're not seeing the miracle signs and
00:53:26wonders. How is it we have one foot in religion and all the practices of paganistic things, and then our
00:53:35other foot, we want to try and have that in God. And it is not working. It's ineffective. It really
00:53:43bothers me. Maybe it's just me. I don't know. But when I think of the greatest time of our lives
00:53:51is the
00:53:52sacrifice that took place on that cross, the blood of Jesus, the beating, the stripes, all that he took,
00:54:02and the majority refer to it as Easter. It is an insult to the kingdom of God. And I pray
00:54:13that as we begin
00:54:15to grow in grace and, of course, in the knowledge of the kingdom and how to mature and how to
00:54:23express,
00:54:24how to represent, how to walk in what God has called us to and what Jesus has done on our
00:54:32behalf,
00:54:32I believe that we will begin to manifest the kingdom and go forth with miracles, signs, and wonders.
00:54:41And the people will be astonished because we walk in the authority and the true identity
00:54:48of who we really are. Again, oh, when we shared to you about how
00:54:58demons reacted to the term son of God, it causes them to violently tremble because that's who we
00:55:10really are. They have no fear of Christian or Christianity or anything religion because
00:55:16that's their kingdom of darkness. But one greater has come and that's what we must express.
00:55:24Spirit of the living God, I thank you for the word of God. I thank you for your kingdom presence
00:55:30in us because it is in us. We will manifest it. We will function accurately and effectively in all that
00:55:42you have called us to do. Thank you, oh God. We embrace our true identity and we renounce the lies
00:55:52and the foolishness of the world system. We renounce the religions and the Christianity and the things that
00:56:01the enemy has tried to impose upon our identity. And we embrace our citizenship as citizens of the kingdom of
00:56:12God. Lord, bless those under the sound of my voice. I pray, God, that you would pour revelation knowledge
00:56:19into their spirits. Let the eyes of their understanding be so enlightened that they begin to
00:56:25prophetically see through what is coming and what is happening even now that you will use them to speak
00:56:33according to the oracles of God into this generation and into the time that we've been called to.
00:56:39I pray, God, that you bring the kind of increase that will assure them that they are being aligned
00:56:46with your kingdom. I pray, God, that you would bring the kinds of blessings and breakthroughs in their
00:56:52lives that will be undeniable, that they will know beyond the shadow of a doubt that this is your word
00:56:59and what you would cause them to align themselves with. And they will see the proof and the results
00:57:06in Jesus' mighty name. We thank you for it in advance. We call it done. And it is so in
00:57:14Jesus' name.
00:57:15Well, I so look forward to our time together. I'm looking forward to meeting and greeting and being
00:57:20with you just to be in your presence. Praise God as we come together. Amen for our Good Friday
00:57:26celebration as we celebrate the Passover and the feast of the Lord. Again, you can bring your Passover
00:57:35gifts to the service or you can, of course, go on our line and do it now. You don't have
00:57:40to wait.
00:57:41But by all means, make sure that you honor the Lord. This is his season and you've been invited.
00:57:50What a blessing and what an honor that is to be invited to the Lord's feast and to become, be
00:57:56a part
00:57:57of the becoming of what God has called you to be. In Jesus' name, I look forward to our time
00:58:03together.
00:58:03We'll see you then. God bless.
00:58:05God bless.
00:58:09God bless.
00:58:10God bless.
00:58:11God bless.
00:58:12God bless.
