I'm excited just to be here. Right? Because look, even though I'm talking to you, this message is I'm like literally talking to myself. All right? So, you're there, but I'm here talking to me. Is that okay? And I just want to encourage you. That's what I do best.

I just encourage us all in the things of God. Isn't that good that we can do that? Encourage yourself and encourage others. I want to take a moment to just say thank you to the best and most amazing pastors in the world. Woo! >> ((cheering)) >> Yeah. You know, they're they're they're beyond like kiddie pool.

Pastor Constance Adams in the building today. >> ((cheering)) >> And then give yourselves a hand for being in the building today. Amen. But I'mma jump on in. Now, you know those preachers that be like, I really don't have a whole lot to say. Um but, you know, I'm just going to say it, but, you know, I just wanted to be able to say that.

But, I really do think it's like I'm going to hit it, hit it, and then we going to go home. Is that okay? All right, good deal. So, last time, right, I was here, I talked about a message that was entitled understanding your identity in Christ through grace.

And then my subtitle, I don't know if y'all remember, I was like, ID, license, and registration, please. Right? I said, ID, license, and registration, please. And I said that the ID was talking about who you are. The license was asking if you are authorized. And then the registration was verifying that you belong.

And so that was the message that wrapped around ID, license, and registration, please. Like, you know, when that woo woo that cop be coming up, that's the first thing he ask you, hey, ID, license, and registration, please. You roll your window down, decide whether you're going to have an attitude or not, and you realize, hey, I don't want to go to jail today.

So, you be like, good afternoon, officer. And you just take that license out and you present it. Yes? So, and we said in regards to those three things that grace was the answer to all three. Grace was the answer to all three because our identity is based on You could probably sing it with me. on the finished work of Jesus Christ.

Yeah? And so we also said that when I recap that manage message, I said the enemy is not asking who you are. He is asking, do you know who you are? Amen. So, hopefully that sounds somewhat familiar. And so I just wanted to do a part two today.

So, this message is called the danger of presenting the wrong ID. Come on, somebody. The danger of presenting the wrong ID. Okay? And so let me just give you a little preference to where this came from. Now, usually when I Now, I won't say usually, but always when I stand up, right, either I'm in the fire with the message, coming up a fire with the message with the fire, going through the fire, but it's always on fire.

How about that? Okay? It's always on fire. So, I'm taking I'm saying it kind of light and some may be a little light-hearted, but it's for real today. Right? Because this message, when I talked about how when I say uh the danger of presenting the wrong ID, I had the opportunity uh to present the wrong ID, to show up differently.

And it was absolutely actually last week. How about that? You know, be so. I had the opportunity to shrink back uh to uh decide, well, I'm not going to or I don't want to say or I won't be or I had the opportunity and it was such a struggle, such a fight.

The enemy was like on the left and the right, and I had to stand and make a decision, you know what? I'm just going to stand in all of who I am and who I know that I am. I am that I am because I am made me who I am.

How about that? Amen. And so today's focus, that's what we're talking and want to take it one step further. And what happens when we present the wrong ID. Because here's the thing. It's good to know All right, it's not just good enough to know the identity, right? Because we've been telling Pastor Dollar has been sharing that with us who we are, walking in the grace identity of Jesus Christ, but there's something about knowing and then showing up in that thing.

Do you understand what I'm saying? You can know all day long. Somebody can tell you 550,000 times, but we have to show up in it. Right? The danger of presenting the wrong ID. When you don't show up in who God says you are, you show up as something else.

Huh? You show up as something else. And whatever identity you show up in determines how you respond, how you speak, how you move, how you think, how you feel, and how you choose. It's all determined by the identity that you show up in. And then, you know, as I'm looking through this and I'm walking through this and as we're hearing the messages that Dr.

Dollar has been sharing with us, I noticed Well, not that I noticed, but we all have noticed that there's some false identities that we show up with. Or is it just me? Huh? Okay, thank you for the one finger Thank you. Thank you for the one finger. There are some false identities that we show up with.

INSTEAD OF SHOWING UP IN THE identity that I'm a child of God, that I'm chosen, that I'm holy, that I'm in Christ, that I'm in union with Christ, that I'm loved, that I'm already delivered, that I'm an overcomer, that I'm forgiven, that I'm full of grace, that I'm obedient to the word of God and I live a disciplined life, there are some other identities that we show up in.

We show up as shame. And if you know, if it ain't you, that's all right. You know, but sometimes, you know, when you're like, ooh, that's me, you might be like, mm. Mm. But, there are some identities that we do show up in. Shame, fear. By the way, all of these are mine.

Okay? Just so keep cuz y'all looking at me like, Okay. Okay, girl. All of these are mine. Okay? If you want to just then you can. But, we show up as shame, fear, doubt, insecurity, rejection, performance, striving, comparison, control, bitterness, unworthiness, divorce residue, as though you show up as though you are no longer able to be loved or worthy to be loved.

Nobody in here, yeah? We show up in the lie that I'm alone and that I've been left out. Yeah? I was asked today when I was kind of sharing what I was going to talk about and I was listing all of the things, all of the different identities that we show up in.

They were like, isn't that like isn't that like um um um imposter What is it called? Imposter syndrome? I said it is. I said, what it is it is imposter syndrome, but these things are the root of the imposter syndrome. Right? These things are the reason why you show up different than who you know that you are.

It's because of the shame, the fear, the doubt, the rejection, all of the things that have occurred that you show up differently. Amen in the building? And then I looked at, here's where the danger comes. And this is a conversation. Is that all right? The results of showing up with the wrong ID.

And it struck me because I saw again myself. When you show up with the wrong ID, you straight you shrink when you should stand. You stay silent when you should speak. You delay when you should obey quickly and the first time. You tolerate what you should confront. You agree with the lies that are untrue.

And you move from emotion instead of your identity. Anybody in the building identifying in this besides me? Praise God. Proverbs 23 and 7, let's look at that. Here we go. What? It says, "For as he thinks in his what?" "Heart, so is he." Remember I said, as you believe, right, who you are is how you determines how you think, how you move, how you feel, how you choose, how you respond, how you show up.

Look at Romans 12 and 2. And it says, "And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your what?" Of your what? Of your mind. That you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of who? God, not yourself.

Not yourself. Um you know me, I'm always asking the Lord questions and we always kind of talking talking that talk. And we I looked at the natural comparison of what happens when you show up with the wrong ID. Just in the natural in the regular world, what you what would happen if you showed up with the wrong ID?

Check it. If you present the wrong ID or no ID, you can be denied access. You see where I'm going? WHAT ABOUT? IF YOU PRESENT WITH THE WRONG ID or no ID, hm? You can be denied access. You can be delayed. You can be questioned. You can be removed.

You can be restricted from moving forward. Talking about the dangers of presenting the wrong ID and in some cases no ID. Showing up like you don't know who you are. When you don't show up, these are the things that happen. And then, comparing the two, the same things happen spiritually.

The same exact things happen spiritually. When you don't show up in your identity, you delay your purpose. You limit your impact. You restrict your movement. And you second-guess your obedience. Huh? Anybody in the room? Yeah. I looked at, you know I love characters in the Bible cuz I just love reading the Bible.

Say amen. And I looked at three. I looked at David, I looked at Esther, and I looked at Solomon. And I did a what if they didn't or what if they did? Looked at David. If David showed up and and just, you know, I like to look at the perspective a little differently.

David, if David showed up with the wrong ID, if David showed up in fear, Israel would have stayed defeated. Goliath would have continued to intimidate. And the people would stay stuck. Right? When you look at that from a different perspective, that's like, "Man, I'm glad you showed up in who you are."

But what did David do? Let's look at 1 Samuel 17 and 45. And it says, "Then David said to the Philistine, Then David said to his debt, Then David said to the sickness, Then David said to the crazy family member, Then David said that Then David said said said said said, 'You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin, but I come to you I come to you I because I know who I am, I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.'" He identified who he was and whose he was.

And he shared that with the situation. You see that? He shared who he was. And he shared it with the situation in real time. David showed up in his identity. Here's the impact that was made with David. A nation was delivered. Fear was broken. And victory was established.

Hopefully, as I'm walking through these characters, you see yourself why it is so important for you and dangerously so if you don't show up in all of who God created you to be, chosen, holy in Christ, understanding that you're in union with Christ. Got to say it over and over again, loved, delivered, already overcomer, forgiven, full of grace.

Obedient to the word of God and you live a disciplined life. Then we looked at Esther. Everybody say Esther. You know I love me E. That's my girl, E. What if Esther showed up with the wrong ID? If Esther showed up in fear, here's what it would have looked like.

She would have remained silent. The Jews would have been destroyed. And her purpose would have been missed. Changes the perspective of that story when you see it that way. I want to read her story. I'm going to read it and I've I've read it on last week too because it's just something powerful about that.

I see like the back and forth of what happened between her and her uncle. And really when I looked at the back and forth here that she was walking through, I look at sometimes the back and forth that I may give to the Lord in my mind of why I can't or why I won't show up, why I'm nervous, why I'm scared, why I don't think so, why I don't think it's going to work.

Even before I even step my foot forward, I'M TELLING GOD WHY IT CAN'T WORK. Just me? Okay. So I'm going to read it through Esther 4:1-16. Say what we're about to read. And I'm going to read it with some like, you know, like it's really a whole situation going on cuz it is.

It says, "When Mordecai learned all that had happened, he tore his clothes and put on sackcloth and ashes and went out into the midst of the city. HE CRIED OUT WITH A LOUD and bitter cry. He went as far as kicked front of the king's gate, for no one might enter the king's gate clothed with sackcloth."

So he was already out of pocket. But something was about to happen to his people. Amen? It says that Esther called Hathach, one of the king's eunuchs whom he had appointed to attend her. And she gave him a command concerning Mordecai to learn what and why this was.

Meaning that she was like, "Can somebody please go outside and find out what's going on with my uncle? All right?" So Hathach went out to Mordecai. And Mordecai, kind of paraphrasing, and Mordecai told him all that had happened. So he was letting him have it. He was letting him know, "Hey, this is what's going on.

This is what's about to happen to my people." Then Esther spoke to Hathach. So she went back. She was like, "Okay, I'm listening to you. I hear what you're saying." Then Esther spoke to Hathach and gave him a command for Mordecai. All the king's servants and the people of the king's provinces know that any man or woman who goes into the inner court to the king, paraphrasing, but has one law, put all to death.

Meaning that everybody knows that if you go to the king without being called upon, what's going to happen? What's going to happen? What's going to happen? Because that's the law. That was the law. Yet I myself have not been called to the king in about these 30 days."

So she's giving him all the information, UPDATING HIM ON WHY IT CAN'T BE, WHY it shouldn't happen, why she ain't going. I'm talking to myself in here cuz nobody else out there has ever done that. Nobody has ever said, "Why you not going? How it can happen?" Cuz you can't see it financially, emotionally, mentally, spiritually.

It's just me? Right? But this is what she was going on. First of all, SHE WAS LIKE, "FIRST of all, SOMEBODY GO GET MY UNCLE ABOUT THE STREETS." AND GET AND SHE WAS LIKE, "AND TAKE him some clothes because, you know, I'm rich. My uncle, you know, he need to look like he representing the family.

Somebody go get him, please." Cuz he's embarrassing me. And then when the word came back, she was like, "Listen, uncle, I heard what you said, but you know what it is? You know what the covenant is? You know what the law is? You know I can't GO UP THERE UNLESS I DIE."

AND WHAT did uncle say back to her? You know how the OG's be like, "Okay, girl. Okay, little girl." Okay. He said, "Do not think in your heart that you will escape in the king's palace any more than all the other Jews." Listen, don't think, little girl, cuz you up in the big house, huh, that it won't go down for you.

Huh? Hm? So then, I shared I was like, "Hey." Then she was like, "Oh, okay. Okay." And when when when the word came back, she got her mind all the way together. She was like, "Okay, sir. Okay. All right. All right. All right. Okay. Um And then she started giving instructions.

I'm paraphrasing there. It says, "Go gather all the Jews who are present in Shushan and fast for me." She was like, "Oh, I know what to do. I know what to do. I realize what's about to happen to me lest I not obey obey obey obey." She said, "Go gather all the JEWS WHO ARE PRESENT IN SHUSHAN AND FAST FOR ME.

Neither eat nor drink for 3 days, night or day. My maids and I will fast likewise." So, she said, "Not only what everybody else is what we're going to do, but me and mine will personally do this, too." Then she said, "And so I will go to the king, which I which is against the what?"

Which is against the what? Is against the what? Listen, when it comes to the things of God and who you are, it has nothing to do with law anymore. It has everything to do with covenant. It has everything to do with the word that he's promised you. That's what he's asking us to stand in.

That's what he's asking us to move in. But she says here, "Which is against the law, and if I perish, I perish." Because her mind got right and she said, "You know what? Let me remind myself of who I am." Let me remind myself of whose I am.

AND IT WAS THAT THAT SHE MOVED ON. THAT'S WHAT WE need to do in situations and circumstances when it seems a little tricky. When we look ahead and we can't see exactly or even when people are telling us, "No, you need to go ahead. That's God. You need to go out and take those steps."

And you're like, "Well, you know, the reason is because I don't really have the bank loan. I don't really have the money. I don't really have the clothes. I don't really have the time. I don't really have the I don't have the That could be a whole song.

I don't really have the I don't really have the I don't really have the I don't really have the I don't really have the I don't really have the And all God said was one thing, "Just go." Right? Just go. Why is it that we have to have so much back and forth?

Because we're not confident in who God said we are. That's a dangerous thing. And being able to That's why we read that scripture, renewing your mind in the word of God, right? Those are the things that cause us to stand confident, and then we're able to move based on who God said we are.

Yeah? So, here's the impact that happened with Esther. A nation was saved. A decree was reversed. Thank you for the amen, because that's a whole big deal. Because once a king says something, you know, in that day, that was it. There was no reversing. THERE WAS NO GOING BACK.

And once he put, you know, some of the kings, they had that seal of the What's they seal that thing? That's it. You dead. You gone. It's a wrap. There was no begging, no pleading, no Well, let me tell you why. Well, see, here's the reason for real why cuz here's what happened was cuz I was just going No, you're dead.

It's gone. It's over. But the impact that she made because she decided to move based on who she was versus the law that said that was in the book, right? She said, "No, I'mma move." So, the impact that was made for her is that a nation was saved.

Guys, we're not talking about a neighborhood. We're talking about an entire nation. A decree was reversed and her purpose was fulfilled. Huh? Think about the things when you do the back and forth with God and when you don't stand and when you don't show up in all of who you are, the things that will not be reversed.

We're talking about sometimes it's the whole what? Generational curses that need to be reversed, set down. Your family needs to be set free. If you just stand up and show up and say, "Hey, we're all going to church. This is what we're doing. I'm coming. I'll be there at 3:00 and make sure everybody's ready.

Be dressed and ready to go. We're going." Well, you know, we all go to grand great great great great great grandma's church on third. It don't matter. Here's where we going. We're going to sit in the word. Let's go. Huh? Whole curses can be reversed in your family should you stand in all of who you are.

Children will come home should you stand in all of who you are. Finances will be changed should YOU STAND IN ALL OF WHO YOU ARE. WHY? BECAUSE WHEN YOU GET TO THE PLACE where you have no more answers, NO MORE CIRCUMSTANCE, NO more situation, and you right at the edge, that is where the opportunity for the Holy Spirit to kick in and the wisdom of God to move and things change.

There's a danger when you don't stand up in all of who you are. Let's look at Solomon. My guy. What if Solomon showed up in the wrong ID with the wrong identification? If he showed up in insecurity or pride. Anybody in the room? Huh? Nobody? Just me. Okay.

What if Solomon showed up in insecurity or pride? He would then ask for riches and power. He would lead very poorly. And the nation would suffer. But what did Solomon do? Let's look at 1 Kings 3 and verse 9. We're going through it. It says, "Therefore Here's what he did.

Therefore, give to your servant an understanding heart to judge your people, that I may discern between good and evil." So, he went before the Lord and he asked for specific things. He said, "Give to your servant an understanding heart to judge your people that I may discern between good and evil."

He showed up in identity dependent on God. I don't know if you know the one of the stories of Solomon, but he almost cut a baby what? In half. That would have been a whole situation. Simplistic so, but how There's just a There's another level of wisdom that you have to know and move in to be able to do something like that.

That means you like He got that knife. He was giving it a go. And I'm SURE IN HIS MIND he was like, "Okay, Father, I'mma need you to SHOW UP RIGHT OKAY, BRING IT DOWN. OKAY." And she started telling the truth. The truth started coming out. He probably was like, "Oh, THANK YOU, GOD." >> [screaming] >> CUZ IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A WHOLE SITUATION.

RIGHT? BUT THAT'S HOW IT is for us sometimes. We got to get SOMETIMES TO THAT PLACE WHERE GOD IS SAYING, "TRUST ME. TRUST ME. Trust me. Trust me. TRUST ME. TRUST ME. JUST TRUST ME. Just trust me." And whoa, that wisdom. You be like, "You know what? I think I'm not going to do it like this.

I'mma do it like that." And it's a level of wisdom that nobody has ever heard in the earth ever before, BUT HE GAVE IT TO YOU. HUH? BECAUSE you decided to stand in all of who you were in spite of what it might have looked like, in spite of what somebody else did long time ago, 2 years ago, how they used to do it.

GOD SAID, "NO, DO IT LIKE THIS and they'll show up differently." Amen. The impact that he made. Look at 1 Kings 4 and 29. The impact from him standing and depending on the living God. It said, "And God gave Solomon wisdom and exceedingly great understanding and largeness of heart like the sand on the seashore."

Can anybody count the sand on the seashore? Huh? But that's the level of wisdom that we're looking at. Now, here's the thing. Why would he give it to Solomon and not to us? See things differently. When he says stand in your identity, he's saying stand in all of who I am and in all that I have.

He gave to him a largeness of heart and like the sand on the seashore. And what happened with him The wisdom with him was that his wisdom was increased. His leadership was established and influence was expanded. We are literally still talking about Solomon when? Today. We are moving some of our businesses, companies, families based on the wisdom that was shared back then.

Now, we bring it back to us. When we don't show up in our full identity, we limit what God wants to do through us. And you know, that might come out a little bit simpler and it sounds good, but what I'm telling you that there's a high levels of impact that God wants to do through you.

I don't care how old you are. From the youngest to the oldest. Well, you know, baby, I'm 77. That's more reason why. Because here's the thing. At 77, at 87, God can do great and amazing things through you because God respects seasons and time. It's enriching. So, whatever comes out of your mouth is going to be different than the 20-year-old because yours has come through seasons, time, harvest, up, down, in, out.

So, when you say it or when you bring it, it's a whole 'nother essence. But when we show up in all of who we are, everything shifts. Look at your neighbor and say, "Everything shifts." Look at your other neighbor and say, "Everything is about to shift." Let's look at 2 Corinthians 3:17.

Everything shifts. When I say everything, I mean everything. 2 Corinthians 3:17. It says, "Now, the Lord is the spirit. And they have message. I'm going to read in King New King James Version. And where the spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty." Now, the Lord is the spirit, and where the spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

Liberty to move like he says move. Think as though it is him. Respond just like him. You are free. Hm? When you show up in your true identity, you show up as who God says you are. You walk in confidence. You speak with authority. You obey quickly, quickly, quickly, quickly, quickly, quickly.

You stand firm. And two things, you receive love and you love boldly. Which means you're not hesitant in your love. Well, I don't know because she You know what I'm saying? Like cuz before and then when I did that before See, when I tried to talk to her before, it was like a whole situation.

First of all, receive If you just receive the love that God is giving you and you really sit in that thing and you realize how much he overcame with you, how much he walked with you with, how much he forgave you, how much he did for you, you'll be bold and you'll say, "You know what, girl?

That's all right. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Give me some love." It don't IT WON'T EVEN MATTER. IT WON'T EVEN MATTER. BUT WE'RE talking about making impact based on your identity. When these things happen, when you show up in your true identity, I'mma say it again, you walk in your confidence.

You speak with authority. You obey quickly. You stand firm. You receive God's love and you love boldly because you understand you're in right standing with God. You're already good. You're already good. You're already good. Second Corinthians 5 and 21. 5 and 21 and I'm reading New King James Version.

It says, "For he made him who knew no sin to be sin for us that we might become the righteousness of God in him." You know, I would read that a lot and I would hear it read and spoken and said. And I had to slow it down a little bit and it became so powerful.

It made such a great imprint in my heart. It said, "For he made him who knew no sin to be sin for us Sometimes it's just reading the word of God, just just slowing it down a little bit so you can understand just how precious that thing is.

To where you just kind of almost You almost kind of rock with that thing. Mm. Mm. Totally pure. Did nothing to nobody. And just because of me, he became sin. Just for me, he became sin. That we might become the righteousness of So that I could be in right standing at all times, in every situation, I'm always going to be good with him.

Mm. Identity The other part is that it produces obedience. Dr. Dollar Bill was picking that up when he started in in the confessions this week and I leaned in a bit because I was like, "You know what? That's the truth." Because here's the thing, look at John 14 and 23.

Identity produces obedience. Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves me, he will keep my word." If you love me, you'll keep my word. James 1 and 22. And I wanted to just kind of rock with the scriptures because, you know what? He can say it better than me.

Because he knows the stories that are sitting in the room. He knows the scenarios that are happening and moving in the room right now better than me. His Holy Spirit is doing surgery right now even as I'm talking just as simplistically as I'm saying things. And he's saying to you this very thing, "Hey, when you stand in all of who you are, the the ability to obey everything that you need to, it comes from me."

James 1 and 22. It says, "But be doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves." But be doers of the what? And not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. You obey because you are agreeing with God. Lord, I agree with what you said about me. I agree in what you said I could do.

I agree that it can happen now. I agree that it's already done. I agree that your your grace is enough. I agree. I agree. And because you agree with God and who he says you are, obedience follows. See that? Cuz I'm in agreement with him. I'm agreeing with everything he said.

Because here's the thing, because I obviously I believe what you said. I agree. And when I believe what you say, right? I'm going to move based on what I believe. And it's all going to turn out well. Here's the impact of you showing up in your true identity.

When you show up Say, "When I show up in my identity all is well." Listen to the impact that will be made. Fear loses its voice. What I'm telling you, even just to come up here today, there was so There was so many opportunities for the enemy. I literally was like, "LISTEN.

LISTEN. LISTEN. ENOUGH!" ENOUGH! I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY to to just write Look, I Somebody was like, "Hey, so what you talking about today?" Wrote it down in like 3 4 minutes. And I said, "Oh." She was like, "Oh, that's good." I said, "That's what I'm going to talk about."

She said, "Yeah, talk that talk. Talk about that." I said, "I am." But it came out fluid because here's the thing, it was what I was just walking through. And had I not stood in who God said I was, there would have been some real serious situations not handled.

Lives would not have been changed. Impact would not have been made. But here's the thing, what happens when you show up in your true identity, fear loses its voice. The enemy loses ground. Purpose is activated. People are impacted. God is revealed through your life. That's not a light thing.

Even while you might be sitting here like, "Okay, but you don't know what happened in my life." Just because it happened in your life, God wants to show up and reveal himself through YOUR LIFE IN SPITE OF WHAT may be happening in your life. All day, every day.

So listen as we close with this. You're like, "Okay, girl." Yep, as we close with this. As I said in the beginning, it's not enough just to know your identity. It is not It It is not enough just to have the right identity, BUT YOU GOT TO KNOW.

SO somebody I know myself. That means you know what? I LOOK, I GOT BLUE HAIR. LOOK, I'M GOING TO LOOK, MOST people are not going to stand up here AND BE LIKE, "BUT I AM." BECAUSE ON THE INSIDE I AM LIKE BUBBLING OVER. >> [screaming] >> SO THAT'S THE BEST WAY I CAN EXPLAIN IT.

YOU'VE GOT TO STAND IN, WALK IN, talk in, move in all of who you are at the time THAT HE SAID IT, WHEN HE SAID IT, HOW HE SAID IT, ALL THE TIME, EVERY DAY. WHY? Cuz there's going to be a situation if you don't. THAT'S WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY.

SEE, I TRY TO STAY REAL calm today, you know what I'm saying? Bring it all real cute, you know what I'm saying? Bring it all REAL SIMPLISTIC, BUT I'M OVER IT. LISTEN TO ME. OKAY? PLEASE listen to what I'm talking about right here. WHEN YOU DON'T STAND IN, excuse me, all of who you are at the moment, no impact will be made.

The enemy will still keep talking at talking your head. You won't even be able to see God do different things in your finances cuz you'll be so IN IT, SO RIGHT here looking at it that you can't see that he's working behind the scenes. >> ((applause)) >> Huh? Cuz you're looking at how you look AT IT.

WHEN LIKE WITH ESTHER, HE'S ALREADY SAW AHEAD of time and he said, "Look, I'mma I'mma I'mma take care OF THE WHOLE NATION. SO ESTHER, GET UP OUT OF THERE. GET UP OFF THEM JEWELS THAT YOU GOT. GET UP OFF THOSE WHITE LINEN CLOTHES THAT YOU GOT THAT I PROVIDED FOR YOU ANYWAY AND GO DO WHAT I SAID TO DO."

SHE GOT HER MIND RIGHT AND SHE WAS LIKE, "OKAY, I got it. I got it." And a whole nation WAS SAVED. WHAT NEEDS TO BE SAVED in your life? Who needs to Who needs to hear that talk in your life? Who's that you're trying to be extra real cute with in your life?

What scenario OR SITUATION WHAT ADDICTION THAT you need to be having the authority TO TALK TO? WHAT SICKNESS THAT NEEDS to hear your voice say, "Come out in the name of Jesus" even if it's on the inside of you? Stand up in that thing. Trying to tell you.

Had I not made a decision last week, huh? As my child watched me minister the word of God, her life wouldn't have been changed. She wouldn't have been able to see the different levels of fear that I was dealing with. She saw her mama overcome right in front of her. >> ((applause)) >> Past situation resolved as I spoke.

The devil was dissolved as I spoke. >> ((applause)) >> Mm? Pity-pat if you want to, but I know that there are some situations and circumstances in your life. The only way it's going to move and shake and change is if you, friend, stand in who God called you to be.

You are chosen. You are holy. You are in Christ. YOU ARE LOVED. YOU ARE DELIVERED already from every sickness. You are delivered already from every crime. Tell them stop putting that crime up on you. TELL THEM GOD ALREADY TOOK the crown on the cross. Stop trying to talk to me like I'm a old head.

Stop trying to talk to me like I like I'm still IN THE JAIL. I'M NOT IN THE JAIL. I'M ABOVE THE JAIL. >> ((applause)) >> YOU SEE WHAT I'M SAYING? LIKE THEY'RE GOING TO KEEP ON TRYING TO PUT THAT OLD THING ON YOU. LISTEN, you can't put nothing old on me.

Cuz everything in me is brand new. Isaiah 43 and 19. Isaiah 45 and 19. He said, "I am doing a new thing." DO YOU NOT KNOW IT? DON'T YOU know it? Don't you see Don't you see me? Y'all see it? There's some OG's in here that seen me from day what?

Y'all see it? Y'all see that he's new? You heard me talk about my mom who was Look, came through breast cancer not just once but twice. You heard me TALK ABOUT MY DAD RIGHT AFTER SHE DIED, SHE DROPPED DEAD 36 MONTHS, he dropped dead 36 months AFTER THAT.

YOU HEARD ME TALK ABOUT IT. You heard me talk about the fact that because we watched them walk through healing, nobody can't tell me nothing about healing. I'm always going to see the glass is half full. I'm always going TO SEE IT HEALED. I'M ALWAYS GOING TO SEE THAT HIS BLOOD IS GREATER GREATER than any sickness or disease. >> ((applause)) >> Talk about it, friend.

You got to let the whole world know this impact to be made. Listen, you must show up in it. When you present that right ID Well, let me say it like this. When you present the wrong ID, as I said before, you delay your purpose. You limit your impact.

YOU MISS YOUR MOMENTS. Not that he won't bring it around again cuz Mordecai told Esther, "Listen, listen. Hey, if you don't do it, somebody going to bring He said it in the scripture, he said, 'Somebody else will cause the rise and deliverance of our people. Go ahead and stay there if you want to.'" And I'm going to say that to you.

Go ahead and stay there if you WANT TO. GO AHEAD AND STAY THERE IF YOU WANT TO. GO AHEAD AND STAY IN THAT BACK ROOM IF YOU WANT TO. GO AHEAD AND DO IT IF YOU WANT TO. VERSUS STAND UP EVEN NOW AS I'M TALKING TO YOU AND God has been TALKING TO YOU ABOUT THAT BUSINESS, stand up now.

As God has been talking to you about changing YOUR FINANCES, STAND UP NOW. AND BEGIN TO LIFT YOUR HANDS. AND BEGIN TO WORSHIP GOD. I DARE YOU. SEE, you don't need You don't You don't You You can't wait for music. You can't wait FOR ME TO SAY IT.

YOU JUST GOT TO KNOW THAT IT'S TIME. IT'S TIME. IT'S TIME. IT'S TIME. >> ((applause)) >> WHEN YOU SHARPEN YOUR TRUE identity like David like Esther like Solomon like Alyssa like Alyssa like Alyssa. Ha! LET ME TELL YOU WHAT HAPPENS, MY FRIEND. YOU STEP into your authority. You walk into your purpose.

You listen to the voice of God. And you walk IN THE OBEDIENCE. AND you make impact. Your identity has already been established. The question is what version of you is showing up, my friend? >> ((cheering)) >> Do you understand? Because, listen, the the life that you want to experience will always be presented by the identity that you show.

Give God some praise in this building. COME ON AND STAND TO YOUR FEET. STAND TO YOUR FEET. STAND TO YOUR FEET. STAND TO YOUR FEET. Come on. I dare you. STAND UP. COME ON AND WORSHIP GOD LIKE you somebody. LIKE YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE. LIKE YOU KNOW YOU HEARD GOD TALKING TO YOU WHILE I WAS TALKING.

Like you KNOW YOU HEARD GOD THE things he told you to change. The things you heard You heard him say, "Hey, hey, lay that down. Push this up. Take that over. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. COME ON." STOP PLAYING WITH THAT THING.

SOMEBODY'S WAITING ON YOU. SITUATIONS ARE WAITING ON YOU. TURNAROUND IS WAITING ON YOU. IMPACT IS WAITING ON YOU. RESTORATION IS WAITING ON YOU. Oh God. Oh God, as we lift our hands in this building, we decree and we declare that all is well. WE BIND EVERY SATANIC, every demonic force, every hindering spirit of the enemy.

We release the anointing of Jesus Christ. The grace to transition INTO GREATER. THE GRACE to walk in who you've called US TO BE. ALL is well. All is well. All is well. All is well. All is well. Give God some praise in the building. >> ((cheering)) ((applause)) >> Hallelujah. So, you're standing confident knowing who you are, right?

Well, just in case you are out there and you do not have your your grace-filled identity, we want to give you a moment to be able to receive Jesus Christ as the Lord over your life. Um we believe that that is the best decision that you could ever make in your life is to become born again and allow Jesus to be the center of your life.

Um so, if you're out there, if you're watching, or if you're in the building and you've never done so, we want to give you that opportunity um by simply saying this prayer really quick with me. Heavenly Father I acknowledge and I admit that I am a sinner in need of a savior.

I receive the word and I receive your sacrifice. Save me, Lord and allow me to be a reflection of you in Jesus' name. Amen. All right, world changers, let's go ahead and celebrate for those who may have said that for the very first time. >> ((applause)) >> We are so excited that you decided to make that decision and we have a gift for you.

One of the things about knowing who you are and knowing who's you are is our confidence to be able to give freely. Lord, I trust you. I depend on you is what I talked about this morning. We depend on you in all things. And so, we obey quickly.

When you say go, we go. When you say move, we move. When there's something that you want us to be a part of through our giving, we do it because we trust you and we know who we are and who's we are. Amen. So, if you're out there and you need a offering envelope, you can raise your hand, the ushers will minister to you.

Otherwise, we have a few other options for you to be able to give. You can text the number that's on the screen or you can dial that 866 number. Of course, there's always mail. You can go to the website or you can scan the QR code on the screen.

Either way this is a great opportunity for you to be able to connect because we get to be a part of changing the world right here. This one opportunity as we worship God allows us to change the world ((music playing)) all over. And that's something to be excited about that you get to be a part of that.

Amen. If you have your offering, go ahead and raise it up. We're going to pray over it and then prepare to be dismissed. Heavenly Father we thank you for the opportunity that we get to be able to be a part of the change all across this world. And I thank you for every person who has taken this opportunity to just walk in >> ((music playing)) >> the obedience of what you've called us to do in this moment, Father.

We know who we are. We know who's who we are. And we stand in our true identity which is depending completely on you, you being our source. And we understand that you have a supply that never runs dry. Therefore, as we sow this seed, Lord God, in obedience to you, we thank you, Lord, that it will go and do exactly what you have assigned it to.

And Father, we thank you, Lord, for every person that that is giving and every person that had a heart to give but did not have it to give. Thank you, Lord, that we're all blessed. Thank you, Lord, that we lack nothing and that all is well in our house, in our minds and in our finances.

We thank you for it now in Jesus' name. Amen. All right. Well, world changers, we're super excited that we had a power-packed Wednesday and that you understand this is a nice midweek check-in to know who you are and to take out the rest of this week and you get to conquer it standing in the fullness and and realizing that there's nothing that I won't show up for.

I will not be fearful about anything. I'm going to show up in the confidence of who God has called me to be knowing that when I show up in my true identity, things have to change. Amen. All right, raise your hands to receive the final blessing. Father God, we thank you, Lord, for us understanding who you've called us to be and us being able to boldly stand in our true identity, Lord God.

We declare that every day this week, for the rest of the week and moving forward, Lord God, that we will stand in our true identity. There will be no shrinking. There will be no fear. There will be no hesitancy, Lord God, but we boldly push forth in all of who you have called us to be, Lord God, so that situations must change because we are standing in all of who you have called us to be and that the victory that belongs to us will show up every time we do.

We receive that now in Jesus' name. Repeat this after me. Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight. Oh my Lord my strength and my redeemer in Jesus' name. Amen. Go and be blessed, world changers. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. >> [music and singing] >> Hallelujah. >> I'm a world changer.

Changing the world everywhere ((music playing)) I go. You know I'm a world changer. Anointed with the power of the Holy Ghost. I'm a world changer. Telling the world of God's saving grace. You know I'm a world changer. We're making a mark that can't be erased. >> ((music playing)) >> I'm a world changer.

I'm a world changer. ((music playing)) You know I'm a world changer. I'm a world I'm a world I'm a world changer.
