  1. We thank you that you have spoken to Tenette and

  2. given high word for us for the day. And we

  3. ask you, Holy Spirit, to feel this word. Let it

  4. become flesh into our lives as we hear it. Let's

  5. take it home and use it for your glory.

  6. And for our good.

  7. Sister Tenette, you most welcome.

  8. Thank you, Sister Julia. Good morning everyone, aw Good morning

  9. to our million viewers online. Make a comment in the

  10. box and tell us where you are. It'd be nice

  11. to hear from you. Amen. Well, we have a full

  12. house today, look at us, glory to God. God is

  13. showing up. Amen, Praise God. So today we're going to

  14. talk about a very special topic and we're going and

  15. continuing the series of re erection living Amen, spiritual power tools.

  16. But it is about God's power within us. Amen. Do

  17. you know God's power is within you? Alleluiah, Praise God. Okay,

  18. let's look at our first verse for today. It's from

  19. Efphicients one, verses nineteen to twenty. Now, this is Apostle

  20. Paul praying and saying, I also pray that you will understand.

  21. So he's like begging, I pray that you will understand

  22. the incredible greatness of God's power for us who believe him.

  23. This is the same power that raised Jesus from the

  24. dead and seated him at the right hand of the Father.

  25. Isn't that amazing? Well, he's saying God's power is within

  26. us who believe him and that second reading from Second

  27. tim verse one seven. For God has not given us

  28. a power a spirit of fear? What has he given

  29. us power and love and a sound mind? Amen? Hallelujah.

  30. God is good. So we are living in the greatest

  31. time of all. Do you know what that is? It's

  32. the resurrection power time, the resurrection power of Jesus. And

  33. so in the Hision's one we are reminded that we

  34. have that incredible power within us. Amen. Jesus demonstrated this

  35. power even while he was still on earth. Did you

  36. know that? In John eleven he intentionally you could take

  37. it down. Now, brother, intentionally waited for Lazarus. We all

  38. know Lazarus, right, what happened to Lazarus. He intentionally waited

  39. for him, delayed. He's seeing Lazarus even while he was sick,

  40. and even after he died. He didn't come until after

  41. four days. Wow, Why is that? Why do you think

  42. that is Why did he delay it? Because he is

  43. not just coming for healing, He's coming for resurrection. Amen. Amen.

  44. So everybody was astonished. Everybody was just in this belief

  45. to God be the glory. And Jesus told the disciples,

  46. did I tell you that if you believe, you will

  47. see God's glory, God's glory. Amen. So hallelujah for that.

  48. Today we might find ourselves waiting on God, feeling worried

  49. or even hopeless because we're approaching or probably have even approached,

  50. a dead end situation. But God is saying to you

  51. he is coming for a resurrection of your situation. Amen.

  52. Do you believe that Jesus is alive and he is

  53. about to show up for you? Amen? Hallelujah, hallelujah. You see,

  54. the Christian life is not a solo journey. It's a

  55. divine partnership. We're not plugged into a source. We are

  56. empowered by the Trinity. In John fourteen eleven, it says

  57. there that the Father is working in Jesus. Don't you

  58. believe that I am in the Father and that the

  59. Father is in me. This is Jesus speaking the words

  60. I say to you. Do not speak about my own

  61. authority rather than Rather, it is the Father living in

  62. me who is doing the work. So the Father is

  63. living in Christ. Then we go to Galatians to twenty

  64. and it says there it is no longer I who lives,

  65. who lives in us. Christ lives in us. Amen. So

  66. we have the Father living in Christ. Then we have

  67. Christ living in us. And then in Acts okay, Galatians

  68. to twenty, we all know that. But in Acts one

  69. eight Jesus said, hold on, wait for me meet when

  70. I go to go to the Father. Acts one eight,

  71. wait till I go to the Father, because the Holy

  72. Spirit will come upon you and he will have will

  73. give you power. Amen. So let's repeat that we've got

  74. the Father working in Christ, We've got Christ in us,

  75. and how we have the Holy Spirit in us. We

  76. have a divine architecture of power in us. That three

  77. the Trinity living in us. That's not ordinary power. Let's

  78. mega power, explosive, life changing resurrection power. Hallelujah. Do you

  79. believe that? Because ordinary power just fixes what's broken. Resurrection

  80. brings life to what is dead. Amen. It brings life

  81. to what is dead. Maybe you have a dead dream,

  82. maybe you have a dead job. Maybe a dead bank account,

  83. maybe a dead relationship, how about a dead opportunity, even

  84. a hopeless diagnosis. But you know what, resurrection power reverses

  85. what looks final, amen, It reverses it. That's why you

  86. don't have to fear dead ends, because with God, nothing

  87. is truly over, nothing is truly final. Anything can change.

  88. The word used for power in the New Testament is dunamiss.

  89. It's the same root word for dynamite, dynamite. What does

  90. a dynamite do. Dynamite breaks barriers, it clears the way.

  91. And resurrection power is our spiritual dynamite. It destroys every obstacle,

  92. every in sickness, lack, oppression, accusation, persecution. This power is

  93. not active, it is very much It's not passive. It

  94. is very much active. It transforms, It shifts the atmospheres

  95. and changes the situation. So with all this great power

  96. within us, what do you think we have a great

  97. mandate for greater things? Hey? Man, if you have so

  98. much power, that means you must do greater things. You're

  99. not an ordinary container anymore. Jesus didn't suggest we might

  100. do well, he promised we would do greater John fourteen twelve.

  101. This is very important. John fourteen twelve. Okay, I'll read it.

  102. Whoever believes in me will the works I have been doing,

  103. and they will do even greater things than this, because

  104. I am going to the Father. Greater things than this.

  105. Imagine doing the same work as Jesus. That is great enough.

  106. But he said greater things than this he will do. Amen.

  107. Isn't that amazing? Isn't that a Oh, it's unbelievable. Why

  108. would God give us? Why would Jesus give us so

  109. much power? So this is our goal to live like him,

  110. to move like him, to show his power and authority

  111. over the world. Not just to believe, not just to believe,

  112. but to demonstrate a man we have to demonstrate. Let's

  113. be like Elijah. If you're familiar with Elijah in the

  114. Old Testament, is a major prophet. He's got an understudy,

  115. like an assistant. His name is Elishah. And Elijah is

  116. going up to heaven. And so he asked him in

  117. Second Kings Uh chapter two, verse nine, Second Kings chapter two,

  118. verse nine, when they had crossed Elijah, Elijah said to Elisha,

  119. tell me what can I do for you before I

  120. am taken up from you? Because Elijah is going up

  121. to heaven. Elijhah replied, let me inherit a double portion

  122. of your spirit. Other translations include and become your successor wow.

  123. Elisha knows how to ask big why because he knows

  124. he has a big God. Too many people settled for

  125. just enough, but Elijah didn't. He asked for double. A man,

  126. you like that. Would you rather receive double than just

  127. the same or just enough? I'd like to have double, please?

  128. And he didn't quit. You know, Elishah didn't quit asking Elijah. Actually,

  129. Elijah said, oh, you have asked a difficult thing. But

  130. it didn't Elijah didn't matter. It didn't mind that. He

  131. kept following Elijah wherever he went. Elijah said, I'm going

  132. to Bethel, Oh, I'm going with you. I'm gonna follow you. Oh, okay.

  133. After that, I'm going to Jordan. Oh, I'm gonna go

  134. with you. I'm gonna follow you. I'll be right there.

  135. He stayed close to Elijah. He didn't quit, He stayed,

  136. he followed. He persisted until he received it. Amen, we

  137. should be persistent like Elisha. We have to ask big

  138. and be persistent, stay close, stay longer until we receive it.

  139. We have to push. What do you mean by push?

  140. Pray until something shows up? So don't lower the promise.

  141. Raise your faith. If you're not seeing the manifestations manifestation yet,

  142. don't shrink your expectation. God is still writing your story. Amen.

  143. He said, in due time, I the Lord will make

  144. it happen Andelujah. And if we persist, we will receive

  145. the promise of God. And ten thirty six. Wow, that's amazing,

  146. isn't it. We can ask big, we can ask for

  147. double more than enough, and God will give it to us.

  148. But God did not just end there. There's more coming.

  149. God did not leave us alone helpless. He equipped us

  150. with a supernatural toolkit. Who are the wires here? Who

  151. likes to do diy okay? Online viewers, raise your hand.

  152. You know, if you're the wire or if you're in construction,

  153. you have power tools because it makes your job easier,

  154. It makes your project faster. Something more powerful than you

  155. is exerting the force the effort. God gave us spiritual

  156. power tools. Do you believe that He's given us so

  157. many power tools and these are just going to be

  158. some of it. These tools push back the enemy and

  159. change situations hallelujah. We have the first and most important tool.

  160. We have the name of Jesus. Hey man, this is

  161. the name of Jesus. In Philippians too, it says I

  162. have given this is the Father, saying, I have given

  163. you the name above all names, and all ne will

  164. bow to your name. So when we invoke the name

  165. of Jesus, we are invoking the highest of all the names.

  166. I have a testimony in the States when we were driving.

  167. This was about wintertime, and you know how the roads

  168. get slippery during winter. So we were just driving, coasting along,

  169. and then suddenly the car spun. It was spinning like

  170. uncontrollably because the roads were very slippy, slippery. And you

  171. know what it did that I said stop in the

  172. name of Jesus. And you know what the car did. Stop.

  173. It obeyed the name, the name above full name. And

  174. you know how he plays the car. He placed it

  175. in such a way we went to the shoulder right

  176. parallel to the railings, and the oncoming traffic is coming.

  177. He put us in a safe place. The name of

  178. Jesus will take you to a safe place. Amen. The

  179. word of God John first verse, verse one in the

  180. beginning was the word and the word was with God,

  181. and the word was God. Hmm. That means the Word

  182. is God himself speaking. When you invoke, when you pray,

  183. when you declare, when you proclaim the Word of God,

  184. it is not you who's talking about it. It is

  185. Jesus himself speaking. That is why we must know the

  186. Word of God, because as often as we say it,

  187. Jesus himself is speaking, because he is the Word. He

  188. is the Word. Another testimony. I'm not going to have

  189. a testimony for all, but this is just something amazing.

  190. I'm a survivor of nine to eleven. Amen. Praise God, allelujah.

  191. That's another testimony of the bigger one in the next occasion.

  192. But there is one word that I memorized and really

  193. spoke to me. And when I said that word, it

  194. was like it was like a movie that God was

  195. guiding me throughout the whole situation. It was Proverbs three five.

  196. And of course all of you know this, trust in

  197. the Lord with all your heart. Never rely on what

  198. you think you know. Remember the Lord in everything you do,

  199. and he will show you the right way. As soon

  200. as I declare that, it's like something open and I

  201. could see I didn't know where to go. I didn't

  202. know what to do, but he was guiding me all

  203. along until I reached safety. The word will save us.

  204. The word will protect us. The word will provide for us.

  205. The word will heal us. The word will do everything

  206. for us. That is the power of the word. Amen.

  207. So we must all have a fall back word, a

  208. default word for our lives, even if you only memorized one,

  209. even if you only memorize two, because this will save

  210. your life as it did mine. What's the next one?

  211. The blood of Jesus. The blood of Jesus. In Revelations

  212. to A eighteen, it says we already have the victory

  213. because of the blood of the Lamb. The blood of

  214. the Lamb gives us victory. Isn't that amazing. Jesus did

  215. not shed his blood for nothing. He shed it for

  216. a purpose, and that is to give us victory. We

  217. have one already, the cross. All our sins have been

  218. nailed to the cross. That's why we have power over sin.

  219. That's why we can no longer walk in sin. That's

  220. why we can walk in the spirit. Because sin has

  221. already been nailed to the cross. We can overcome sin.

  222. We can overcome the lies and the deception of the devil,

  223. because the Cross did it for us. Amen. Faith, Wow, Faith,

  224. need I say more? Faith? Jesus said, even if you

  225. have even a tiny seed of faith, you can tell

  226. the mountain go over there, go over here. Faith, even

  227. though you're not sure what's going to happen. What is

  228. the definition of faith in Hebrews? Faith is being sure

  229. of the things you hope for and the evidence of

  230. things you cannot see. You cannot see it. Yet you

  231. don't know what's gonna happen. You're uncertain, but yet you know,

  232. you know that, you know that, you know that is faith. Right.

  233. I know I don't know what's gonna happen tomorrow. I

  234. don't know where the money is coming from. I don't

  235. know when my healing is coming. But I know I

  236. am sure that it's going to happen, even though I

  237. cannot see it. Amen. Prayer, Oh, there's so many prayer

  238. warriors here. Yesterday we had a lovely time with the ladies,

  239. just praying for each other, praying for each other and

  240. just lifting everything. After the Lord prayer, it said in Matthew,

  241. if you believe, if you believe, you will receive whatever

  242. you ask. For in prayer. Amen, So you must pray

  243. first and believe. Now, these are just one of the verses.

  244. Don't think that that's the only support for each of

  245. these spiritual power tools. There are many, but just in

  246. the interest of time, I didn't put all of them.

  247. So prayer is so important. It's our direct connection to God.

  248. You know. Without that we are breathless. We need the

  249. breath of God. We need the communication with God. We

  250. need him to download. Was this morning as I was

  251. just talking. I've got everything prepared, but God is still

  252. downloading his mature. Okay, put this. Yeah, you have to

  253. tell you. I said, Lord, enough enough, that's too much. Lord.

  254. But you know, as you pray, God reveals and God

  255. gives you everything he wants for you. Power of agreement.

  256. Power of agreement, he says, when two people minimum two,

  257. you don't need a whole congregation, You don't need a

  258. million dollar auditorium to pray for You just need too

  259. If you agree, Jesus said, my Father will do it

  260. for you. Isn't that amazing? He makes it so easy

  261. for us. He's got it so easy. That's why I

  262. tell you Christian life.

  263. Is the easiest thing. Because he gives us all these

  264. power tools. Ay man, then I'll tell you what's hard

  265. with the Christian life. A man later, the authority of

  266. the believers.

  267. We have an authority. Did you know that? As believers?

  268. If you believe in the Lord Jesus, if you love him,

  269. if you remain in him, if you obey him and

  270. you want to please him, your believer. If you accept

  271. Jesus as your savior, you're a believer. And this is

  272. what he told us if we are believers, Mark sixteen

  273. seventeen to eighteen. This is his last words to the

  274. apostle before he left. Those are his very last words,

  275. which means we all must do this. And he did

  276. not make us helpless. He equipped us for this task,

  277. the ones that I've already mentioned before. He said, you

  278. will have the power to perform miracles. Whoh I have

  279. the power? Really? If I believe you will have the

  280. power to perform miracles. You will speak in strange tongues.

  281. You can pray in the spirit praying tongues. You will

  282. cast out demons any kind of oppression, any evil spirit,

  283. oppressing spirit. You don't need to be captive. You can

  284. curse them out. You can drive them out of you

  285. from others. You have that authority. Jesus gave it to us.

  286. And lastly, when you lay hands on the sick, they

  287. will recover, they will get well. Amen. Amen, this is

  288. our authority. He gave it to us. It's amazing. When

  289. I lay my hands on myself when something is sick,

  290. Hallelujah goes away. We need to practice. These tools are

  291. for us to use and use more and more. I

  292. know that everybody is using this. I know that everybody

  293. knows about this, and I know that we are doing this.

  294. We know about it, but we need to use it

  295. more and more. And I know that God will show

  296. up whenever we do this. But we need to persevere.

  297. We need to persevere. And when we don't see the

  298. manifestation yet, delay is not denial. I think this is

  299. now the buzzword delay is not a denial, but it's true.

  300. It's not a denial. It's a preparation for something great,

  301. because Jesus is doing something. Remember he waited days after

  302. resurrecting Lazarus for a greater task, for a bigger, bigger surprise.

  303. And God will surprise us if we persevere. Amen, If

  304. we persevere, don't ask God for more power. We already

  305. have it. We've already got one through it. We just

  306. need to use it more and more. It's like we

  307. have a Lamborghini in the house, but we keep it

  308. in the garage. Right, we shouldn't keep it in the garage.

  309. We need to take it out on the road and

  310. experience its power. We need to experience the power of

  311. God in these things that He gave us, these power tools.

  312. We need to see. You know, what is the extent.

  313. We're not meant to live ordinary lives because of this

  314. great power. We are supernaturals. Not everybody have this. Do

  315. you believe? Do you agree? Aymen? So we are called

  316. to overcome every time, not just one time, not just sometimes.

  317. Every time. Amen, we are already equipped. So don't back down,

  318. because greater is He that is in you, Amen, and

  319. the world se is God through us. We are His evidence,

  320. his presence, and his visible sign of authority on earth. Amen.

  321. We are. Maybe our lives is a mess right now.

  322. Maybe you know things are not going well, things are

  323. in the wrong place. We're going through rough times. But

  324. this is just temporary. We will overcome because Christ overcame

  325. and this is the resurrection power. Our tests will be

  326. our triumphs. Our trials will be our testimony. Do you

  327. believe so? Without a battle, there is no victory. Amen.

  328. You cannot have a victory if you didn't have a battle.

  329. So we are His visible signs of authority on earth.

  330. So we must not just believe. We are called to

  331. a higher purpose. And today Jesus wants you to know this.

  332. He is alive. He is alive in you, in me,

  333. in all of us, and you are not empty. We

  334. are equipped with heavenly power, heavenly power. It's not ordinary power,

  335. it's supernatural power. Hallelujah, hallelujah. He is calling us higher,

  336. not to a defeated life, but to a supernatural life.

  337. If you feel like something in your life is dead,

  338. maybe your hope, your direction, your fire, maybe they're all gone.

  339. You're just too tired and fatigued with too much things

  340. that are going on in your lives, and you just, Lord,

  341. I've lost it. I've just I need you. I am

  342. so dry right now. Lord, I'm going through the wilderness. Father,

  343. I don't know what to do, I don't know where

  344. to go. I'm at a crossroad. Lord, I need your fire,

  345. I need your resurrection power. In me. Brothers and sisters,

  346. this is your moment today, This is the time to

  347. come to God. Maybe you've never invited Jesus in your life.

  348. Today is the day. Today is the day to come

  349. to Him and say, I want that supernatural back into

  350. my life. I want to reignire, reignite my fire for God.

  351. Today I want to make that commitment to you. Lord.

  352. Jesus is calling you forward. Jesus is calling you forward,

  353. not to shame you, but to restore you, not to

  354. condemn you, but to save you. Not only to heal you,

  355. but to resurrect you. To resurrect you. He said, if

  356. you acknowledge me before others, I will acknowledge you before man,

  357. before my father in heaven. So this is your moment

  358. to take a step of faith. Amen, don't overthink it,

  359. don't wait for a better time, step out, come forward.

  360. Let your heart be placed upon his feet. Let your

  361. heart to him, bring it up to him, lay it

  362. all down, let him reset you, let him restore you.

  363. Let him raise you to a new level of faith.

  364. Come to Jesus and experience his resurrection power. He is

  365. so good, he is so wonderful, he is so loving,

  366. and he is so ready for you. Let's come to Jesus.

  367. Let's step us forward and just commit our lives to him.

  368. It doesn't matter if you've known him for a long time,

  369. it doesn't matter that you don't know him yet and

  370. you want to accept him. Just come forward and say, Lord,

  371. I want to receive you right now, that fresh start,

  372. that fresh in feeling once again. I want to have

  373. that resurrection power. Lord. I want to experience that in

  374. feeling from you again. Those spiritual tools that I've neglected,

  375. I want to use them. I want to use them,

  376. Lord to the fullest, to the max, because I want

  377. to take that Lamborghini out on the road. I want

  378. to take that power of Christ on the road. Thank

  379. you Jesus, Thank you Father, thank your Holy Spirit for

  380. your amazing Workiness. Lord, we just give you glory, keep

  381. your honor in praise. Thank you Father, Thank you Jesus.

  382. If you've never accepted Jesus before, if you want Jesus

  383. in your life, would you say this prayer with me. Jesus.

  384. I believe you are the son of God. I believe

  385. you died for me and rose again today. I give

  386. you my life forgive me, cleanse me, make me new

  387. from today. I choose you. Fill me with your power,

  388. your resurrection power. Help me live for you, Help me

  389. live for you in Jesus' name. Amen. Amen, thank you Jesus,

  390. Thank you Lord,
