Word Supremacy - The Reigning Spirit

Hey, hey, hey, hey, man.

If you have your Bibles, turn over to 1st Corinthians chapter

2, First Corinthians chapter 2, later to the service, we're

1 Corinthians 2 · chapter mention

going to be taking care of some water baptism.

We're going to be rejoicing with people who have given their

lives to Jesus and are publicly displaying in front of you that

they have died and that they no longer live for themselves and

the life they live now. They live resurrected for

Christ, Amen. And they're going to follow his

his will for their lives as long as they remain in the earth,

Amen. And so you don't want to check

out early, OK, don't be like a football game and leave the

stands early because you know, you want to get your vehicle and

go. Amen, I said.

Amen. In fact, I was talking to Kenny

Robshaw the other day. He end up going to the Gator

Kentucky game. It's a little bit close.

They weren't doing anything significant.

So they said we left early, they left in the fourth quarter to

come home. Well, Florida end up putting up

three touchdowns. So they ended up, you know,

showing out in the fourth quarter.

He said we missed the whole game.

Well, you know, a lot of times you can miss some moves of the

spirit if you get out early. You just need to hang out.

Amen. And it'll be worth it.

So you want to be able to celebrate with those that have

done water baptism in first Corinthians chapter 2 verse 12,

1 Corinthians 2:12

it says this praise the Lord y'all doing all right?

Do we need to do a little practice today?

Because you understand I love us to have passion for the Lord.

Nothing in the world should demonstrate more passion than

us. And passion a lot of times is

articulated in your voice right now.

A couple nights ago, it's the bottom of the 10th 2 hour space

had loaded. And Freedman for the Dodgers

gets up first pitch, he hits it. And when he hits it, he knows.

He knew. And he just raises his bat up.

That place went pandemonium. I mean, there was not a male in

the stands that looked like this.

Wow, the only ones if they were wearing the Yankees now, that

may be true. That may be true.

They might have been like, because that's what defeat

looked like, right? But for those who were rooting

for their team, there was not a man that did not come to their.

Feet. Throw up their hands and shout

with great enthusiasm. That means they went from a kind

of quiet, just watching with anticipation, to exuberant.

Do you understand you can have a shout of praise in a fraction of

a second that the minute you get a revelation from the word, it

should? Glory to God.

I mean, you should be able to just jump to your feet.

Come on. Did we want to practice it right

now? Let's just think about, did

Jesus die for you? Did Jesus die for you?

Was he ripped? Was he raised from the dead?

Did he give you power with the Holy Ghost?

Glory to God. Hallelujah.

So don't come to this place wanting me to lecture to you.

I am not at a university. I am not here to lecture you.

I'm here to participate with you, to celebrate our King,

whose Kingdom has no end. Glory to God.

So I give you permission at any time to get excited about your

King. Amen.

Because in these stadiums, they are not at.

Would you mind if I get up and shout right now?

Would it offends you if I get excited and danced a little bit

right now? You know what?

Nobody in this room is going to get upset if you jump, run,

shout. Doesn't matter.

Because when you're passionate for your King, however that

manifests. Praise the Lord, Amen.

Praise God. Amen.

First Corinthians chapter 12 verse.

1 Corinthians 12 · chapter mention

Our chapter 2 verse 12 says this.

Now we have received not the spirit of the world.

But the Spirit who is from God, glory to God, we have received

the Spirit who? Is from God.

Second Timothy 17 says this. The King James says, But God

hath not given us the spirit of fear, but of what power and of

love and of sound mind we do not have the spirit of the world.

The spirit of the world is the spirit of fear, a spirit of.

Doom and gloom, a spirit of you don't know what you're going to

get, how is it going to happen? And they speak out of fear, They

speak out of doom. They're always trying to get you

to worry. It's the sound of the spirit

fear, but God's not giving us that spirit.

That's not the sound that we hear.

The sound of the spirit we have is power.

It's a conquering spirit. It's a rain.

It is the reigning spirit. It is the spirit that overcomes

every obstacle. It is the.

Spirit that is not moved in any way, it can maintain its love,

walk and it's always sound in mind, which means it's the

spirit we have from God does not is not anxious one bit.

The spirit we've been given does not wring its hands in concern.

It's not fretful. It's not he's not fretful.

He's not fearful. He's not concerned.

He's not worried, no. He knows exactly what's going on

and he is the one with full authority.

Hallelujah, Hallelujah. First John 44 says this.

You are from God. Are you born again?

Are you from God? You are from God, little

children, and have overcome them because greater, come on, say

greater, say greater. Greater is he who is in.

You than he who is in the world. Glory to God, we have the

greater 1. And if you.

Have the greater 1 then what can the world do to you?

What? Can the world?

Do to you religion would like to tell you that the whole basis of

faith is uncertainty that we can't be.

Sure, because if you were sure, what would you have anything to

have faith for? This is how religion defines

believing God. We don't know, and that's why we

believe Him, because there's so much uncertainty.

But the Bible does not define faith that way.

The Bible defines faith this way.

Faith comes by hearing and hearing from the word of God,

and God always does his word. Faith is what's called a firm

persuasion. In fact, the Bible tells us in

Romans 4 that Abraham grew strong in faith not because he

was uncertain of whether God would do what he said.

But no, he was. Firmly persuaded, it was certain

it's going to happen. It has to happen.

God never goes back on His Word, and that was confidence.

That He exhibited, you understand, when you have the

reigning spirit in you and upon you, you will have a bold

confidence about you. Listen, the Bible tells us to

boldly go before the throne of great, not beggardly, not

sheepishly, not with uncertainty, but boldly.

And then He says this in John 1/5.

He says This is the confidence that we have, not uncertainty.

Not for sure. Oh, I sure hope it is.

No, he said. This is the confidence that we

have, that if we ask anything, according to his will, we.

What's the next word? No, not we, ma'am.

That's why we're just trusting God, because we don't know

what's going to have. That's not what it said.

We know that we have that which we have asked for.

Why? Because when you ask God to do

what he said He would do, God's obligated to do what?

He's going to do. And again, the confidence that

and bonus that you portray when you say no, God said it, this is

the way it is. That settles it.

I'm not going to think any other direction.

I'm not going to accept any other alternative or outcome.

I'm only going to do it the way God says.

When that occurs, your faith is in His ability to do His Word,

not you doing His Word. He is obligated to make sure His

word comes to pass. You are obligated to trust it

confidently. Amen.

So we've been given a greater spirit.

We have the Great Spirit, the spirit that reigns.

You understand, this year for us is the reigning spirit we've

been talking about the spirit that reigns within us, the

spirit that we have, which is the Holy Ghost.

He's never been defeated. He cannot be conquered.

He overcomes every other spirit, every other spirit.

With that being said, you know what first Corinthians 619 says?

You know, I love Scripture here because again, we're not here to

preach opinions. We're here to communicate.

What does the Bible say? He says.

Or do you not know that your body now that's not church body?

This is the church Bob. We're not talking we're talking

right here go ahead and touch yourself.

This is you, your body. Don't you know that your body is

the temple of the Holy Spirit? So people like man, where's God?

We'll. Look in the mirror.

He's in you, I said. He's in you now you say, well, I

don't feel him. That's irrelevant.

Feeling Him is irrelevant. You should just know He's there

and he is there. That means and he is the third

person of the Godhead, which means He wants and will talk to

you. In fact, He is the only voice he

wants you to hear though. Or do you not know that your

body is the temple of the Holy Spirit?

Who is what in you whom you have from and that spirit we have

from God is not a spirit of fear.

It's not the spirit of this world.

No, it's from God. It is light, love, power, the

mind sound because I only do what God says Amen and that you

are what not your own. Why does?

He say that he says quit trying. To think of what you should do,

do what he does. You're not your own, which means

when you made Jesus Lord. Lord is not a religious word.

It means supreme and authority. When you bowed your.

Will. To the will of God.

When you submitted yourself to King Jesus because of His death,

burial, and resurrection, He paid the price for your

transgression in your sin. You say I give up my way of

doing for your way because I've tried it my way and it's filthy

rags. I cannot be pleasing to you, nor

can I be restored to you in the realm of the Spirit.

But when you make Jesus Lord supreme in authority, you're

saying no longer will I consult me.

No longer will I limit decisions to my spirit, but I will yield

to your spirit because I house the Holy Ghost.

Can I get an Amen? John chapter 14 verse 16 and 17

John 14:16

says it this way. Jesus said now Jesus says this,

this is your Savior. Jesus said I will ask the Father

and he will what? Give you another helper?

In essence, if you break that down to the Greek, that means

he's going to give you someone just like me, OK, And that he

may be with you. So don't ever wake up, say,

where's the Holy Ghost because he's not left if there's a.

Leaving. It's not on the Spirit side,

it'll be on AU side. And next month I'm going to

minister on a Wednesday night concerning the blasphemy of the

Holy Ghost. I'm going to minister that and

I'll give you plenty of time so you'll know be one service.

But I want you to understand what blasphemy of the Holy

Spirit is, OK? So here He'll be with you

forever. Verse 17.

That is the spirit of the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot

receive, because it does not see Him nor know him.

But you know him. Why?

Because he abides with you and. In you we have received the

reigning Spirit. Hallelujah, I said.

We have received the reigning Spirit.

We have the third person of the Godhead living in US, speaking

to our Spirit and then coming upon us to indue us with power.

That gives us access to the gifts of the Spirit and to a

language that allows us to pray in a way when we don't know how

we ought to pray. We receive the language of the

Kingdom. The Bible calls it an unknown

tongue. Because again, if I brought some

people up on the platform now that speaks Spanish or German or

Albanian or Greek, most of you wouldn't understand them either.

It would be a unknown tongue to you because you couldn't

translate it. You would have no idea what

they're saying, but you sure wouldn't call it demonic.

That's right. Well, God made tongues.

So it's easy then for him to give us a language as a result

of an overflow of power because he said, man, sometimes you

don't know how you ought to pray.

And at the end of the day, I want you to speak in a language

that even the devil doesn't understand.

Amen. Hallelujah.

I mean again. How do we?

Figure out that we are a brand new spirit once we ask Jesus to

be our Lord. You can't even, you can't figure

that out. I mean, it's like all I know is

I was dead. Guilt, shame, I knew it.

But God, when I confessed him as Lord, something on the inside

happened. I know it.

You can't explain there's. But you know, you believe, you

can tell I'm a different person. People like I don't.

You look the same. You're wearing the same clothes,

you have the same haircut. Nothing about you looks

different to me. No, I'm different.

We understand. Does it matter that you can pray

in tongues and not always understand what you're saying?

By faith, you know that God said it's my will being prayed

through you, and I always do my will.

So I just trust him. Thank you Lord, you gave it to

me. I don't know how I ought to

pray. I'm just going to pray in the

spirit now, as the Spirit gives my spirit unction, I'm going to

release that. It is your will in the earth.

No one may understand it, I may not even understand in my mom,

but I know this. It comes from heaven.

It comes from. You and it has power, because

when the Word of God is spoken in any language, power is

available. Amen.

So he said he's going to send us a helper.

Now why do we need this helper? I want you to know that the

helper came to us, not just to tell our spirit, hey, when you

die. Which your spirits?

Not dying anyway. So it's really not having that

conversation, but for the sake of, you know, communication of

how people kind of live life. And that is, you know, when you

die, you'll go to heaven and be with me.

That's not why he gave you the. Spirit.

Does the Spirit testify with your spirit?

You're a child of God, Yes. Does it communicate you things

to come? And that is this mortal body is

going to come off. You're going to have a glorified

body. You're going to be with the Lord

forever. And wherever he is, I'm going to

be with him. And he does testify of that, but

he's a helper. And his help is not just to

navigate while we're in the earth that it's all right.

When you die, you're going to heaven.

That is not what he's helping to keep you in remembrance.

It's OK. I know how bad it's getting.

But you're going to heaven when you die.

That is not why he's helping you.

That's not why he's helping you. No, he's helping you for other

reasons. And the reason why he's helping

you, First Timothy chapter 4, verse one, the number one reason

1 Timothy 4 · chapter mention

why he is there to help you is this.

But the spirit that is the Holy Spirit explicitly says that in

latter times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention

to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons to deceitful

what spirits? One translation says seducing

spirits. Which tells us, and again, I

love the Bible when it capitalizes God because it's

letting us know that this is the reigning spirit, this is God

himself and but yet notice. There are other spirits and what

he's saying is, is that the spirit says that's the Holy

Spirit, it's talking, but he's not the only one talking.

Now he is the reigning spirit that we should only give

attention to. But he lets you know there will

be other voices that are coming and it's happens the minute

you're born again. It will just accelerate and be

even more dominant in the latter times.

Now, let's just look at it from a natural perspective.

Why would this be? Do you understand when the

apostle? Well, let's keep, let's go back

even sooner than this. I'm trying to think of who

Pastor Rick Hutchinson, who's going to be planting an actrate

church in the Dominican Republic, was just talking to me

about the missionary who went and evangelized China.

Do you remember? That guy off the top of your

head, Hudson Taylor. Hudson.

I think that's who it is. Hudson Taylor.

Thank you. Thank you, Holy Ghost, and thank

you for getting it right. OK, with that being said, he

went in to didn't know the language at all, OK.

When he would report back his work and this was just I mean

few 100 years ago, few 100 years ago, he would write a letter

back home. It would take him a year to get

the response to his letter. A year.

This is just a couple 100 years ago, you understand, at the turn

of the 1900s letters Telegraph these things were dominant.

Then finally we get into a thing called telephone, which means we

could start hearing things more. Often then they developed this

thing called radio, which means then we could hear voices more

often. Then we got into a thing called

television, which allowed us to hear voices with images.

Now then we have now the Internet and now we have phones

that we carry around what you understand.

We have access to the voices 24/7 now, which not too long

ago, really less than 200 years that in order to hear another

voice, you either had to be around someone or wait for the

communication through a letter to show up.

So again, if you wrote someone and says, hey, you know, this is

what I'm doing in that person life.

This is stupid. You shouldn't do it for them to

write you back and tell you how how much of an idiot you are and

degrade you and it would take some time.

Unlike now, you text. Hey, the Lords call me.

You're an idiot. How fast is the other spirits?

Talking. Come on now.

So that's why I say now in the latter times, when information

increases, when the in essence the enemy has a megaphone and

multiple sources to talk to you, all the more that you need to

fine tune your hearing to the reigning spirit.

I said to the reigning spirit, Amen.

And so the spirit explicitly says in latter times, some will

fall away from the faith. And the reason why it's not

because seducing spirits and doctrines of demons are talking,

but it's because they're paying attention to them.

Whatever you pay attention to, you begin to conform to.

All right, young people, This is why you know when your parents

say, hey, listen, I want you to read the Bible, pray, what are

they doing? They want you to start paying

attention to life, not because you're trying to get you in a

religious exercise, because they already know based upon your

phone, you're hearing a lot of voices.

And if you keep paying attention to TikTok and paying attention

to Snapchat and paying attention to Instagram and paying

attention to whatever else is out there and every YouTube

video, well, guess what? That will begin to get into your

mindset and there's a barrage of things talking.

And here's the thing, the enemy does not just come out again.

It's called seducing, which means it touches somewhere you

already feel and you can identify.

In essence, it comes to you and you're like, well, you kind of

feel like me. You're kind of seeing it like

I'm kind of seeing it then you know, we've said this at Anchor

Bay Church. We have said in the beginning

was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word.

Then verse 14th of John one says and the word became so God is

the author of words. He's the only one who has a

right to define them. And the prophets of old in the

Old covenant prophesied this. And I don't remember which

prophet it was. So if you know, just yell at me

and I'll receive it. But a prophet said there would

come a time when they'll call what's good evil and what's evil

good, right? Maybe it was Isaiah.

OK as the. Which means then there's going

to come a there's going to be spirits that are talking to

humans and they're going to start saying, now I know we used

to call that evil, but you know, it's really good and we should

check calls. Love accepts everybody.

Love's very accepting of every. Love's so tolerant.

Love's this, that and the other. So we redefine love.

We. Redefine, you know, morality.

We need to coexist. We need to all get along and

believe what we want to believe. Yet if you go to scripture, the

Lord says no, I am the way, so it's my way.

I am the life, so outside of me it's death.

Because there's a way that seems right to a man, the Scripture

says, but in the end lies. So they'll present.

There's a way that seems right. And unless you have been tuned

to know how the Holy Spirit, the reigning Spirit you have,

converses. Then it's easy to say, you know,

I never, I never looked at it that way.

I've never looked at it that way.

But when you know how the Spirit speaks, then you'll say, now

that's a law. Look at First John 4.

One, it says this beloved, why are we?

Why do we have the helper? Beloved, do not believe, say, do

not, do not believe every spirit.

But test the. Spirits to see whether they are

from God, because many, not a few, many false prophets have

gone out. Into the world.

And let me just say this a false prophet.

Doesn't have to have a relationship with God because by

all rights a prophet is one who's heralding a message saying

from God. And it may not.

They may not even be connected to God.

However, there can be those who are.

Born of God and have heard God correctly at a time, but because

they haven't maintained a relationship and be and for

other reasons can begin to speak.

In a way that is not from God, because even evil spirits can

communicate a truth. I'll give you an example.

You know as well as I do. In the book of Acts, Paul was in

a particular community, and as he was in that community, a

girl, a young girl who was a slave to two men, used her to do

fortune telling. In essence, she was possessed by

a evil spirit. And this spirit is what the

Bible calls a familiar spirit. We're going to talk more about

these at a later date. But this familiar spirit and a

familiar spirit, how does it function?

It it leaves the individual because it's a spirit and it

goes and it can follow Jesse, it can follow Lord leave, it can

follow Joe, right? And it can see what you've been

doing on any given day, what you were wearing, where house you

went to. Now it's not omnipresent.

It has to go with you, has to be, has to move in a way to

survey you. Then it goes back to the vessel

that it possesses. And so that that girl could have

gone by Joe in the streets and say, yesterday you were at Home

Depot aisle 13 picking up this and it would be true.

Now you say, how do you know that?

Because the Spirit said concerning Paul, this man speaks

concerning things of God. And that was true because he was

representing the Kingdom. And this familiar spirit spoke

accurately of who Paul was openly for three days.

But Paul getting aggravated by it and it was probably by the

spirit and I'll tell you why here in a minute.

He turns, rebukes the spirit out of the girl.

It leaves her and now she had she's no longer the vessel by

which this spirit can function. Now the rich, the the guys that

owned her realized we just lost our business.

Are you hearing me? You say now why did Paul do

this? Because if Paul had not rebuked

that devil out of that girl after he established the church

in that community and had left, that spirit could start talking

and saying, wasn't I right about Paul?

Wasn't I right about what he did?

Wasn't I right about when I listened to me?

But by rebuking. That it showed that Paul had the

reigning spirit, that that was actually a demonic spirit

speaking truth, but it wasn't from it wasn't from God.

Are you hearing me? Oh, this is good.

You understand how many believers, if we don't watch

out, we can get caught up in those things when people try to

give you these analogy. Well, now if you had a child.

That was kidnapped and a fortune teller says they knew it.

You wouldn't go to them. I don't have to go to a second.

A low class demonic spirit. And find out about my child,

because God's not going to let some low class demonic spirit

get glory for knowing where my child is.

The Holy Ghost will tell me himself.

Amen. We never reduce principle.

Amen. The only thing we should do is

rebuke it out of that person. And we'd have already known

because the Holy Ghost tells us so.

The highlight Ghost tells us we rebuke it out of the thing and

clean up the community and rescue our child.

Hallelujah, because you're inferring that God's not going

to tell you something, but demons will.

Demons don't love me. Demons don't love you.

They don't love you. No.

They come from the side that wants to kill, steal and

destroy. Hallelujah.

And that's. How seducing comes it is to

offer you things. That's what the devil did to

Jesus. He was trying to seduce him in

the temptations. Come on, let me take you to a

high pinnacle. Look, Look at all these

kingdoms. That's what you're here for

anyway, right? I know you're coming for the

dominion. All this the Luke account of the

temptation of Jesus. He said all these kingdoms,

these domains I'll give to you for they have been handed over

to me. Where did he get that dominion

from? You know, Anchor Faith Church

here in Saint Augustine, but we may have some guests today.

They don't know they he received it from Adam.

For God said let us make man in our image according to our

likeness and let them have rule or dominion.

Adam was the God of this world, as God is the God of heaven.

He gave the earth to man, and they would converse, and he

would always function under the authority of his Father who was

in heaven. But when the devil seduced and

deceived Eve, then she turned and gave the fruit to Adam, the

fruit he was never to eat. That God never wanted him to

eat. That God put in the garden to

prove that he loved him. It was Adam's proof every day.

I love God because I obey His Word.

He said the day you eat the fruit of the tree of the

knowledge of good and evil, you'll die.

And then when he ate, he rebelled and he turned over the

dominion. That's why 2nd Corinthians 4

four calls the devil the God of this world.

Now that's not planet Earth. It is the systems, it's the

rulership. It's the way this planets

function. And the devil has killed this

planet. He has brought death and

destruction to this planet through one man's transgression.

Sin has entered the world. And the devil has been

propagating this these lies forever.

Amen. So here he is.

He says, come on, Jesus, I'll give it to you.

You want Adam's dominion, don't you?

I'll give it to you. But this is what it cost you.

Just bow down. And do what I say.

And Jesus said I will worship the Lord my God and him alone,

because what he didn't know is that I'm taking it anyway.

I'm going to take it all and you're going to be left with

nothing. Hallelujah, I said.

Hallelujah. So we are to test every spirit

to see whether they are from God.

Because many false prophets have gone out of the world, we must

be able to determine what the voice determine, the voice of

the Spirit in these last days. That's for us to determine.

Well, how do we do this? God tells us how the reigning

Spirit in US speaks. He tells us He's very clear in

John chapter 14 verse 21. John chapter 14 verse 20 He

John 14:21 John 14:20

says, but the helper, who is the helper?

The Holy Spirit? What's he going to whom The

Father will send to my name. He will.

Teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I

that's Jesus said to you. So the Holy Spirit is only.

Speaking on behalf of Jesus. He doesn't speak on behalf of

any other party. He doesn't speak on any on

behalf of any other person. He only speaks on behalf of

Jesus. We can go over now to John

John 16:13

chapter 16, verse 13, and it says this.

But when he, the Spirit of truth comes, that's the Holy Spirit He

will guide you into. Now when I say, oh, he says all

truth, that's not just biblical truth, meaning what's true of

the Bible. Do you understand?

The Holy Ghost can tell you truth about what's going on in

government, what's going on in education, what's going on with

your neighbors. He can tell you.

He can say the truth is, you know, the Holy Spirit can say

the truth is they don't like you.

They're always talking nice to you, but they just want to use

you. They want to, they envy what you

have. They're just looking for a

reason. He can tell you those truths as

well. Amen.

He can do that. So it's not limited when we say

He'll guide you. All truth is just Bible truth.

It's just knowing from Genesis to Revelation what God's saying

in His Word. No, He can tell you those things

too. He can tell you whether the deal

somebody wants you to do is a good deal or not.

Well, the truth is, you probably shouldn't invest in that.

Or the truth is you. Should invest in that.

But it goes on to say this, It says he will not speak of his

own initiative, which means the Holy Spirit does not give you

his personal opinion, but whatever he hears, he will

speak, and he will disclose to you what is to come.

So the Holy Spirit will only communicate what he hears from

Jesus Christ the King, and Jesus is seated at the right hand of

the Father. Now why is this powerful?

Because we know Ecclesiastes 84 says where the word of the King

is, there is so you understand the Holy Ghost in you, the the

reigning spirit that you possess.

He has direct access. To the throne room in.

Heaven to the courts of Heaven to the throne of grace to the

word of the final authority. And He's going to communicate to

you exactly what the ruler of heaven and earth says concerning

this situation. That's powerful.

That means I'm never limited in any information necessary for me

to walk out my the plan and purpose God has for my life.

I'm never at a disadvantage because my King's word reigns

supreme. I said my King's word reigns

supreme. Why do we know this?

Look what it says in Isaiah 55 verse 8 and 9.

Isaiah 55:8

It says this for my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are

my are your ways my ways. Says the Lord.

Again, this is in context to there's a way that seems right

to a man. But if you're only thinking on

your own, all right, go on. For as the heavens are higher

than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my

thoughts than your thoughts. Now that scripture never.

Was to be used as we can't know his thoughts or ways.

This scripture does not imply that he is just literally saying

don't depend on your ways and your thoughts alone because I am

supreme. My way is supreme, my thought is

supreme. And here's the good news, you

can have access to it. Look down to verse 11.

Why is this important? Because his ways and thoughts he

says, yes, so shall my word be that goes forth from my mouth.

It shall not return to me void without producing any effect or

useless, but it shall accomplish that which I please and purpose,

and it shall prosper in the thing which I sent it.

There's only one thing that causes the word of God void.

It is your unbelief. That means it's your rejection

of his way or thought concerning the situation you're in and you

take it as truth. Walk in confidence that what he

says he's able to perform. If you abandoned that then then

you. Hinder God from doing what he

wants to ultimately do in your life, but the word he says

nonetheless has the power to. Perform it.

Are you hearing me? Are you hearing me?

Which brings me to this thought concerning God.

Because God is supreme. Do you understand?

God will never stop you from doing what you want to do.

He does not violate your will, doesn't do it.

He can give you a thought so you'll change your thought.

He can give you a way so you'll change your way.

He'll communicate to you through people and through your own

spirit if you're born again of how He wants it done.

And if you resist it and choose not to, God cannot make you do

it. Cannot.

But if you ever try to take your will and your way, which is

directly opposed to God's will and His way, to the place that

it would hinder God's way and will, then he will intervene.

Now he doesn't intervene to change your mind, but he can

intervene to stop your course. The Tower of Babel is a great

example of this. The Tower of Babel was man's

will to do God or get to God or access things in the Spirit

outside of God. And when God said they're in one

mind 1 accord, they're in unity. I cannot change their will

concerning the direction they are going.

But because it's directly opposed to my will, my purpose,

then he changed their language and they were unable to do it.

God may not change your will, but he can't flatten your tire.

God may not change your will, but he can cause your weapon to

misfire. Are you hearing me?

I know a friend of ours that's in Nicaragua.

Him and his wife were attacked because his mother, the mother

of his wife, had her boyfriend hire people to try to kill them

or land and so they were attacked with machetes.

And one of the guys had a revolver, pointed it at him and

pulled the trigger multiple times but it never went off.

And though he had lost a lot of blood and she he was able to

pick her up, carry her over 2 kilometers down a mountain to a

hospital and they're alive today.

My point is, is that ultimately if man is trying to hinder

through their will, God's. Plan for you, he has a way.

To hinder those plans, Paul was actually killed.

I believe. The context where he said I know

a man in body or out of body, I do not.

Know is a result of when they drug him out of the city and

stoned him and they thought he was dead because he most likely

was, but when he went up. The Lord was like, I couldn't

change their will concerning you.

They acted in a way that I didn't want them.

But here's the thing, what the devil is meant for bad, God is

going to turn for good because I'm fixing to tell you some

things that you're not even going to be an express, but it's

going to empower your confidence in me so much even more than the

road to Damascus experience that you had with me.

When you know that you know that you heard that it was Jesus that

you were persecuting, that it was me that you were coming

against that empowered you to go share about my kingship.

Now that you've been in this realm, the 3rd heaven man, when

I put you back in that. Body he got in that body, he got

back up and went back into the same town of the people who had

drug him out and stoned him, talking about confidence.

No, this no weapon formed against the Church will prosper.

We may not be able to change the will of people, but ultimately,

if people's wills is to enact so that God's plan can't come to

pass, God will render it null and void.

He'll do things that we can't even comprehend.

This is why I'm not fretful or fearful concerning anything

going on in the world, because the Church is the powerhouse.

Of the planet, He said the church is the powerhouse of the

planet and you cannot eradicate the church because Jesus is

coming back for the church. So man, as much as he may plan,

scheme, legislate, pass laws to hinder the Church of Jesus

Christ, it cannot come to pass. God will always intervene

because he said I'm coming back for it, so it can't not be here

when I get here. Which is a double negative.

Please forgive me. But that being said, Isaiah 4523

says this. He said I have sworn by myself.

Now this is powerful. The word is gone out of my mouth

in righteousness, and shall not return that unto.

Me, every knee. Shall bow, and every tongue

shall swear allegiance. I want us to look at a few

scriptures here, he said. I've.

Sworn by myself, the word is going out of my mouth, and

writes in, and shall not return that unto me every knee shall

bow, and every tongue shall swear allegiance.

What's he saying? We'll look at Philippians

Philippians 2:10

chapter 2, verse 10 and 11. Says it is so that at the name

of Jesus every knee will bow of those in heaven and on earth and

under the earth. There's no existence that's not

bowing to Jesus and that every tongue will confess that Jesus

Christ is Lord, which literally means supreme in authority.

Say supreme, say supreme. I'm not talking pizza here.

Supreme in authority. OK, Jesus is supreme in

authority to the glory of God. Now look at this next passage of

scripture in Hebrews chapter 6 verse 13 through 17.

Hebrews 6:13–17

I'm going to read out of a a pretty neat translation called

the Remedy translation. It says this.

When God made his promise to Abraham, there was no one

greater than himself to guarantee the promise, so he

guaranteed it himself. Now what are these scriptures?

Telling us when God speaks, there is.

No word higher. When God speaks, there is no

word higher. So man cannot redefine marriage

because God's. Word.

On it is supreme. There's nothing in any.

World government that can redefine and it be more supreme

than God's way. Do you understand when people

are talking to me about positions, whether it's

political, whether it's educational, whatever, it all

sums up to this. Whose word do you really want me

to believe? Do you want me to believe your

word that you didn't get on your own anyway?

Because most people have gotten it from someone else and someone

else is either somebody that has a degree somewhere that we've

deemed an expert. I don't care how many degrees

you have and how many people call you an expert.

You're not God. Now many.

Think they're gods, and they think their word is God, and

they think their word is final. And again, how do I know they're

of the Antichrist? Because they want to kill you

when you disagree. As a believer, I'm not going to

get upset if you disagree because I take the same position

of my king. You can believe whatever you

want to believe, but you're not convincing me of your position

if it's outside of his word. I don't have to get mad at you.

I have to get all upset at you. I can just say according to that

thinking, my king says, and it's not my job to persuade you, it's

my job just to communicate the truth of the king.

And I trust the Holy Ghost are going to talk to you way more

than I will, because the scripture tells me He will.

Because unless God draws someone, they can't be saved

anyway, so it's better for me to release.

Well, you know, the King says this.

Well, I don't believe that. You don't have to.

And you know what? He'll let you.

But the result of you not is this because that's what the

king says? Well, I don't believe that.

You don't have to believe that, but I'm just telling you this

what the king says. So at the end, we'll find out

who was right. You.

Are. Jesus.

I don't have to sweat one bit. I don't have to have a vein pop.

I don't have to come try to slap them.

Because here's the thing, God, if he was so concerned, he'd

take them out himself. In fact, it's his mercy that

leaves them. Come on, believers, it is an act

of mercy when you just release the truth and don't get

argumentative about the truth you have.

Don't be frustrated with them. Those that are lost, they can't

help it. Can't help it, but you

understand God, there was no one greater.

Let's go on, he said, saying, I will absolutely bless you and

give you a multitude of descendants.

And Abraham trusted God and patiently waited until he

received what was promised. Verse 16 says people will swear

by someone greater than themselves that what they say is

true, and the oath is supposed to guarantee that what they say

was true and put an end to any further dispute.

Isn't that powerful? So again, when someone tries to

give me a policy or position and they tell me a certain thing, I

can hear. But who's giving you that?

Who are you greater than you? Telling you that.

Because again, when I was in the as a former veteran or former

soldier, I am a veteran today, OK, As a former soldier, there

was a voice that had authority in my life, OK.

And that was not the actual voice, himself or herself, but

it was he, at the time anyway. The governor of the of the state

of Florida would issue orders to our unit that would be read by a

soldier within our unit. And it would usually start out

like this, attention to orders, which means then we would be in

formation at parade rest and they go attention to orders.

And then we get because someone with authority that we are to

honor and respect. That is higher than our

authority is talking, and for us it's the highest one because

it's the governor of the state of Florida.

I was in the Army National Guard, Attention, orders, boom.

Now everything spoken which is not by the governor himself, but

the one reciting what the governor has.

Written and has signed with his own name and has the seal of the

state of Florida pressed into the document that validates its

authority. And it begins to communicate to

us our next assignment, which means it doesn't say, well, if

you want to stay home with your wife, you can.

If you don't feel like coming, it's really up to you.

At the end of the day, you. Decide no, it was get you.

You're going to be packing up. You're going to be deployed

here. This is where you're going go

kiss your wife and kids goodbye. This is the duration of your

deployment. This is how this is going to

function. So again, didn't matter how much

my wife would cry and want to say stay home with me, which I

was never deployed. So I'm having to use, you know,

a little bit of a expanded thought process here.

Matt and Andrew, y'all have this and others in the room.

But I didn't have that kind of deployment.

But those that did, they had to go home and say we're leaving.

This is the. Date don't matter how much

they're like I need you to stay, I don't want you to go doesn't

matter. It doesn't matter because

there's a voice higher and it proved it had authority in my

life and and why not? Because it made me, I chose to

enlist into its. Service do you know you chose

after he chose you and he has the highest say so again in

verse 16 it says people swear by someone greater than themselves.

Why? Because they say, well, so and

so said it well, OK, well, if so and so said it there you go,

right? Well, that's what you need to

say. Well, Jesus said that's the

highest word verse 17 says because God didn't want any

doubts. They no doubts because God

wanted those who are heirs of His promised redemption to be.

Certain say certain. About the unchanging nature of

his methods, principles, and character of love, he confirmed

it with his own word. In essence, what I've said is

final. It will be that way only, and

nothing is more supreme than what I just.

Said, are you hearing me now? Why is this important concerning

having a reigning spirit in the days we live in today?

First Corinthians 2, verses 11:50.

Says for to us, God revealed them through the Spirit.

For the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of God.

So the reigning Spirit you have searches the depths of God, the

one who has the final say, the supreme Word, His Word is

supremacy, period. It's final, there is no

disputing it. So when the enemy talks.

He's a liar and His word is not more powerful.

His word will identify with you, though, because we've all lived

in the flesh. We've felt it.

We've had doubts, we've had fears, we've had insecurities,

we've had struggles, we've had guilt, we've had shame, we've

made mistakes. He knows it.

We know it, God. Doesn't know it.

Because when we repent, he forgets it.

We're always reminding the King and the King's like I had the

final say on, that it is forgiven.

But yeah, we will let God let the devil talk to us and say you

can't do that. You know, you've blown it.

You know you can't go there anymore.

There's no way that ever use you, you know.

But the Lords, like, I don't even know what you're talking

about. Why are you trying to bring this

up to me? My word is supreme.

Quit listening to the liar. Your sin has been removed as far

as the east is from the West. I don't even know who you're

talking about right now because the one I'm looking at is holy,

blessed, royal, righteous as a head and not the tail.

Above and not beneath. Reigns in life overcomes every

circumstance. I don't even know you who you're

talking to. Talking about right now because

it surely isn't you. And his word on the matter to me

is all that matters. Amen.

Verse 11 says, For who among men knows the thought of a man,

except the spirit of man, which is in him?

You know what you thinking. Even so, the thoughts of God no

one knows except the Spirit of God.

Verse 12 Now we have received not the spirit of the world

there it is again, but the Spirit who is from God.

Why? So that we may what know the

things freely given to us by God.

He's there to let us know. This is the.

Supreme word on that and nothing is higher than my word though no

other spirit talking tested if I've said this and you're

hearing something else. It's a lot.

Don't accept it. Don't accept it.

Take no thought, pay no attention to it, because the

King's word has supremacy and it's the final say on all

matters. It is the only voice.

That does matter. And again, if you're not in the

Word, then it's very difficult sometimes for you to hear what

the Spirit's saying because He only speaks the Word.

The Bible is God's Word to us. It demonstrates His character.

You cannot find in any place of Scripture that God did not do

what He says. If anything, that we should see

every time we go from page to page, Genesis 11 to Revelations

2221, we should see God's faithful to His Word.

He always brings it to pass Amen.

He always brings it to pass, which brings me to this passage

in closing in John chapter 10, verse two to five, I'm going to

John 10 · chapter mention

read the New American Standard. Then I'm going to give you a

different translation because it's really amazing, he says.

But he who enters by the door is a shepherd of the sheep.

To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice, and he

calls his own sheep by name and leaves them out.

When he puts forth all his own, he goes out ahead of them, and

the sheep follow him because they what know his voice.

A stranger they simply will not follow, but will.

Flee from him because they do not know the voice of a

stranger. Your confession daily should be

I know the voice of my king. I hear the voice of my king by

the reigning spirit he's given me.

We should never doubt. Now you may not be currently

hearing something, but you go ahead and say I hear my King's

voice cause the reigning spirit in me speaks to me through by

him and just accept that and whatever the reigning spirit

says to me, that's final. Nothing else I'll accept.

Nothing else I'll accept, because anything spoken to me

that may be factually correct can change to what my king says.

Actually, you could have cancer eating your body up and you have

two weeks to live. The truth is the king says by

his stripes he were healed. This is the healthcare of the

Kingdom. You are healed of the Lord and

it can kill every cancer. In your body, no matter where

it's hiding out, that's the final say.

I said that's the final say. That's the final say.

But you have to have certainty. I know I hear His voice.

I know I hear his voice. I know I hear his voice.

I know I hear his voice. Amen.

Let me read this out of the remedy translation.

It says this, but the shepherd of the sheep enters through the

gate. The guard opens the gate for the

shepherd, and the sheep that know him listen to his voice.

I like that. Because you understand, it's one

thing for him to know us, it's another thing for us to know

him. It is a relationship.

So in order for you to know him, you've got to get to know him.

Now, I can tell you right now if I married Pastor Marcy September

12th, 1991, First Baptist Church, Archer said.

Our vows, went to our honeymoon, consummated the marriage, and

then the next day I said you can go home.

I got things to do and then I'm gone for three years.

Go back up three years later, say hey, I'm home, let's Make

Love again and then leave for another six months.

Well, you are my wife. Legally, I have a right to this.

Do we have a relationship? Amazing how many believers want

to have intimacy with God without relationship with God.

But the reality is you're not even having intimacy.

I just want to be in His presence.

And a lot of that we don't watch out can really be lustful

because it's not coming from, Paul said.

I just want to know you. In order for me to know my wife

for 33 years is because we talk, we converse, I hear what she

likes, what she doesn't like, and then we merge.

But it's because we convert, not because we do what we do.

And then we show up and every once in a while we just get

naked. That's not relationship.

I'll never forget the Lord told me one time he said if you spend

as much time with your wife as you do with me, you wouldn't be

married very long. As far I was called to ministry,

I was born again, but I would work, you know, I'd do stuff on

my wife, my kids. You know, I love God, but the

reality is I wasn't reading the Bible.

I wasn't praying. I once spent, I'd show up to

church whenever I decided and I was in a situation praying, he

says. You know, son, if you spend as

much time with your wife as you do me, you wouldn't be married

very long. Hallelujah.

He said. But the shepherd, the guard, the

gate of the shepherd, the sheep that know him, listen to his

voice. He calls the sheep by name.

And all who know the shepherd he leads out of the pen.

When he has brought, when he has brought out all who know him, he

goes ahead of them, leading the way, never driving them from

behind. And his sheep follow because

they know. His voice and love him and all

his. Ways.

In the last of the last days, it's imperative that we decide

that the Word of the King is final and the reigning spirit

we've been given is only telling us his final say.

We need to know and trust that God's way on it or thought about

it is supreme. And mine will always be

crucified. And anyone else speaking other

than what's clearly seen within the context of Scripture, of

God's nature, ability, and. Way of doing things then we will

no longer be compromising to the whims of culture or society we

will say this is our. King, this is what he says.

He's given you an opportunity to receive Him at His word, and

you're going to have life and life more abundantly.

But I will not compromise His way to bend to your way, because

His word is unmatched.
