Word Carrier | Pastor Travis Greene | Forward City Church

Welcome to For City family. We're so happy to have you joining us online for our family service. We had a beautiful Christmas production and PT preach a dynamic word word carrier. When I tell you this word will remind you that you have to first receive the word, then we have to keep the word and give birth to that word.

It is so beautiful to receive words from God. And we now know how to give birth to those words. I want you to grab your journal. This word is going to push you forward in all that God has called you for. Make sure you lean all the way in for this dynamic message. >> Luke chapter 1 verse 26.

The Bible says, "In the sixth month of Elizabeth's pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee, >> to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph. a descendant of David. >> The virgin's name was >> Mary. >> The angel went to her and said, "Greetings.

You are I like this. Highly >> favored. >> The Lord is >> with Do me a favor. Just look at somebody and tell them you got favor. >> Cuz he's with you. >> I can go home right now." Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be. >> But the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid."

There's somebody in here who's been gripped with fear. And I need you to know, don't be afraid. You got favor >> and he's with you. >> Said, don't be afraid, Mary. You have found favor >> with God. Here's the kind of favor you have. You will conceive >> and give birth to a son >> and YOU ARE TO CALL HIM >> JESUS. >> Something about that name. >> He will be great and will be called the son of the most high. >> The Lord will give him the throne of his father David.

He will reign over Jacob's descendants forever. >> I like this. You got to underline this. His kingdom. Come on. >> Whenever >> end. >> How will this be? >> It's a strong word. Mary asked the angel, "Since I am a virgin." >> The angel answered. >> This is how the Holy Spirit >> will come on you. >> God, how am I going to do what you calling me to do?

This is how the Holy Spirit God, how I'm going to open that business next year. This is how the Holy Spirit >> will come on you and the power of the most high will over shadow you. >> So the holy one to be born will be called the son of God.

Even Elizabeth, your relative, is going to have a child in her old age. And she who was said to be unable to conceive >> is already in her six month. DO ME A FAVOR REAL QUICK. This is going to be a weird one. Look at somebody and say, "Hey neighbor, >> you more pregnant than you think you are. >> What you talking about, Willis?

I'm talking about verse 37. >> Verse 37 says, >> "FOR NO WORD FROM GOD." >> If he said it, I believe it. >> THERE THERE'S NO WORD FROM God that has ever or will ever >> fail. >> I am the Lord's servant, Mary answered. May your word be fulfilled.

Then the angel left her. I want to preach a message. I'm going to try to do it as quick as I can because y'all took up some of my time having a Baptist fit. I'm going preach a Christmas message. This girl over here blessing me. She having her own worship encounter.

Girl, you you blessing me. Listen, I got a message. It's called this word carrier. I need you to do me a favor. I need you to find three people. Look at them dead in the eyeball and say, "You're a word carrier. You're a word carrier. You're a word carrier.

You're a word carrier. Lord Jesus, breathe on this your word. Your word is a lamp to our feet. It's a light for our path. Your word is the bread of life." The Bible says that man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.

It is your word that gives us strength. It is your word that gives us direction. It is your word that gives us life. >> We receive it today. Thank you for creating us to be word carriers. Breathe on this word in Jesus name. Amen. Three quick points. Let's go ahead and get to it.

Three quick points for being a word carrier. >> First, you got to receive it. >> You got to keep it. Then you got to birth it. Receive it, keep it, birth it. That's the whole message. >> A word from God must be received. >> A word from God must be shout with me.

Received. When God chooses to send a prophetic message, a a divine prompting or a dream or a vision, he's entrusting his word with you. Listen, his words are released on assignment to fulfill whatever it is that he wants to bring to fruition. God speaks to us whenever he decides to.

And he does this because he desires for something eternal to move through time. >> Your Bible says in Isaiah 55:1, we're going to put it up, but it says, "So my word that goes out from my mouth," this is God speaking. He said it would not return to me empty or void.

Watch this. But will accomplish my God what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. If I really had time, I would break this verse down as much as I could. But just know that God does not waste words. >> He he he has to be picky about what he says because whatever he says has to happen.

You were talking about the alpha and omega. He spoke light. He said, "Let there be light." >> And it happened. >> He spoke THE SUN AND THE SUN BEEN SHINING EVER SINCE. >> He spoke the moon and the stars. HE HAS TO BE CAREFUL WITH WHAT he says.

But this is good news because if he decides to speak, >> whatever he said about you can't come back to him. The word cannot return. Boy, it hasn't fulfilled. This is why Gabriel with confidence in Luke 1:37 looks at Mary and says, "For no word of God will ever fail." >> Now, I grew up in different denominations, but predominantly my childhood was was Pentecostalism.

I know you can't tell that, but I grew up in very charismatic churches and I grew up in um very prophetic environments. And uh there's much of my life that was spoiler alert. People told me all my life kind of what I would do. That's the the world I grew up in.

And and whenever God sent a word to me, he sent it to ignite my passion or sometimes he sent it to give me a warning. And sometimes he sent it to encourage my soul. But much of my life today was prophesied over me long ago. For example, it was prophesied over me that I would travel the world and that my music would touch millions.

And this was prophesied to me when I was being raised by a widow in a little town in Georgia because God does not need evidence to speak something. I don't know who needs to hear this. It was prophesied over us that our son Jace would live with no signs of prematurity.

Now that sounds easy right now because he's 11. But when it was spoken over us, my wife water had broken at 21 weeks. And the doctor pulled me into the hallway and said that you already lost a child. But I serve a God >> that has the final say.

And when he speaks, he does not need man's evidence. >> It was prophesied over me that I would pastor a church and start a revival. Ladies and gentlemen, this happened years before I ever even thought about moving to South Carolina. Years before I had kids, years before I was ever interested at in pastoring.

As a matter of fact, one guy sat across the table from me, I'll never forget, was in St. Louis. I was there um doing a music event and he spoke to me and he was a preacher. He said, "Man, the Lord just spoke to me." He told me you're going to start a church.

And I said, "No, sir. That is not God." The Lord, I said this, God will have to speak to me through a burning bush. He said, "Well, get ready for a burning bush because I know what I saw." Because when God releases the word, ladies and gentlemen, he does not need men's evidence.

He does not I wish I had time. He don't need man's permission. He don't need me. He He doesn't need a permission slip signed. When he decides to speak, HE SPEAKS WITH confidence because he I am confident in this very thing that he who has begun a good work IS FAITHFUL TO BRING IT TO PASS.

THAT'S THE KIND OF God we serve. God's word does not have to be understood. >> Here we go. It just has to be >> received. Imagine if this teenage virgin girl by the name of Mary would have looked at that angel on that day and say, "Nah, nah, dog.

You uh you got the wrong one. I'm going to need you to go to the next house and choose somebody else." Imagine that. >> We get so familiar with the story, we forget the fact that she had to receive the word. >> Imagine if she would have rejected it.

And the question is, how many words have God tried to deliver? >> I bought my wife something real nice for I bought a few things for her birthday. My mama said, my mom sent said, "Good Lord, boy, you know how to buy some gifts. Remember me this day on my birthday as well."

I said, "Mama, that's a little out of budget. Your daughter, you know, budget here, but we going to get you something nice." But, uh, it was one thing I had for my wife and I could not wait for it to be delivered, but it was delayed cuz it's Christmas. any of y'all stuff got delayed from FedEx.

FEDEX BEEN TRIPPING. BUT I WAS TRAVELING. I WAS LIKE, I kept checking it every day. Where is it? Where is it? Where is it? Where is it? And then I got nervous because the day that it was supposed to come, I knew we would be home. But I got a nephew that don't have nothing else to do.

And I said, Rondelle, go to my house. It's true story. Go to my house and just sit there all day and wait on it. I'll give you $5 later. Just sit there all day. You in college, you on break. Just sit there and wait on the gift because something was about to be delivered.

And the tragedy would have been if I was not in position to receive. And I wonder how many things you've been praying for that God wants to deliver, but you never hope. I'm moving too fast. I'm moving too fast. >> I was looking at this and God said, "Mary had to receive my word."

And how many times, Travis, have you been absent or out of position? And how many times have you rejected because of your own insecurity and because of your own fear and because of your own rebellion? >> Because every time you disobey God, you're telling him to choose someone else. >> Mary had to be willing to accept the word from God.

Now, I was reading this and I like to read it with fresh lenses every single Christmas. I was reading the nativity s and I was reading and I said, "Man, how crazy. It must have been crazy for Mary to hear that the Savior will be born through a virgin."

This is crazy news. And God says, "Actually, it wasn't crazy at all." Because 700 years prior, he had spoken through a word, a word through a prophet named Isaiah. Isaiah 7:14, they're going to put it up. It says, "Therefore, the Lord himself will give you a sign. The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and we'll call him Emmanuel."

So, the Sharker wasn't that it was a virgin birth. You ready? The Sharker was a candidate he chose. >> See, many of us actually believe that God can. We just don't think he can do it through us. >> But this is what I love about my God. My God is never searching for a candidate.

Are you ready? >> God actually was not searching for Mary. God actually created Mary to carry. >> Good God. Do me a favor. Help me preach. Punch your neighbor in the kneecap. Tell them you were made for this miracle. >> Oh no, no, no. You didn't hear what I just said.

You were made for this miracle. You don't have to qualify for it. He created you for it. He He Oh, man. He create The Bible says that before I formed you in your mother's womb, I knew you. I SET YOU APART AND I APPOINTED YOU. I MADE YOU FOR THIS.

And I've been reading through this story over and over and over. Been reading through it and it amazed me. I was talking to my wife about this on vacation when we was kicked up on the beach just drinking some virgin dares and listening to Do You Like Pina Coladas.

I WAS I WAS TALKING TO her And and I I I said, man, as I'm reading through this, it amazed me how many angelic encounters were happening. >> Like that was amazing to me because you do know this is not a fairy tale, ladies and gentlemen. >> If you going to believe anything, >> don't believe Fox, >> don't believe CNN, >> don't believe ESPN.

If you gonna believe anything, you better believe the word of God. This is not a fantasy. This is not a fairy tale. This is not Disney or Pixar. This, my ladies and gentlemen, is the real word of God. This is reality. These were real p people. Mary was a REAL PERSON >> WHO HAD A real encounter.

Joseph was a real person who had a real encounter. And I'm talking about angelic visitations. And I know we like to buy our Valentine cards and we think angels look cute and cuddly. I don't think that cuz every time I see them having an encounter, >> they peed on theelf just a little bit.

And the angel said, "Yo, dry yourself off and fear not." >> Y'all come here all deep. If an angel had popped up IN YOUR KITCHEN DRESSED LIKE BATMAN, YOU WOULD FREAK OUT EVERY TIME. WHOA, BRO. BACK UP. Angel's like, "Do not be afraid." >> What you mean don't be afraid?

WHERE YOU COME FROM, DOG? But all these people were having encounters. Mary had a visitation. Joseph had a visitation. The shepherds, >> the shepherds, they ain't fancy people. They smell like animals. >> And the angels came and the first people who preached about them. >> I like this.

In your Bible, it says the shepherds came and saw them and they were so amazed they had to GO TELL PEOPLE. AND THE BIBLE SAID THEY CAME BACK. >> HALLELUJAH. >> Not only the wise men, the Lord speaking to them through stars and stuff. They're looking up. They said, "Oh, something about to happen."

Everybody having an encounter. And it dawned on me, Pastor Jim, that they were postured >> to receive a word. And I wonder how many times that God has wanted to deliver a word to me, but I've been too full to even receive anything. >> Oh, full of what, Travis?

Full of offense. >> Or maybe I'm just too busy to hear. This is why your Bible says, "I wish I had time to be still and know." Some of y'all just move too much. >> Get busy about it. Just >> And God said, "I would deliver something, but you're never home.

You're never still. You're never settled." But out of all of these spiritual encounters, I'm going to speed up. The one that amazed me probably the most was with a man named Zachariah. >> Do you want to know what happened to Zachariah? What happened to Zachchariah was he was a priest >> and the Bible says he was just doing his priestly duties >> and he went into the temple burning incense and then once again an angel appeared.

He was like whoa bro. The Bible says in Luke 1:12 I'm read it. When Zachariah saw him he was startled and was gripped with fear. But the angel said to him, "Do not be afraid. Zachariah, watch this. Your prayer my God >> has been heard. He said, "Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you to call him John."

Skip down to verse 18. Watch the Bible. Zachchariah asked the angel, "How can I be sure of this? I'm an old man. My wife is old, too. You see her?" The angel said to him, "I like the angel." Oh. Oh my god. I wish I had time. Boozers, the boozers are here.

I love y'all so much. I wish I had time. The angel did not entertain his question. >> He didn't say, "Well, the way it's going to happen is the birds and the bees." What happens? See what happens. >> The angel said, "Allow me to reintroduce myself." He said, "IN CASE YOU DON'T KNOW WHO'S SPEAKING to you, >> I am Gabriel."

Come on. >> HE SAID, "I STAND IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD, >> AND I HAVE BEEN SENT TO SPEAK TO YOU AND TO TELL you this GOOD NEWS, >> BUT SINCE YOU DON'T HAVE EARS TO RECEIVE, >> NOW YOU WILL BE silent >> and NOT ABLE TO SPEAK UNTIL THE DAY.

IT STILL GONNA HAPPEN, >> BUT I'MMA HAVE TO PUT YOU ON MUTE UNTIL IT HAPPENED >> BECAUSE YOU DID NOT BELIEVE MY WORDS, which will come true at their appointed time. Now, man, let me do this really quick, real quick. REAL QUICK HERE, BOTH ZACHCHARIAH and Mary had questions. >> MARY ASKED, "HOW WILL THIS BE?"

NOT, "HOW CAN THIS BE? SEE, Mary was curious. Zachchariah was doubtful. >> AND YOUR DOUBT CAN CAUSE complications to what you carry. >> DOUBT HAS THE ABILITY TO CHOKE OUT THE WORD. My God. AND SO GOD DON'T WANT US TO interfere with what he's saying by us saying the wrong thing. >> My God.

AND HERE'S THE CRAZIEST PART OF THIS DIALOGUE to me. It happens in verse 13. The fact that the angel looks at him and says, "Your prayer has been heard." >> LISTEN, THIS actually convicted me. It encouraged me and convicted me. >> It encouraged me cuz I said, "Man, God, thank you for reminding me you hear me when I pray." >> But it CONVICTED ME BECAUSE HOW CAN ZACHCHARIAH PRAYER BE heard and yet he didn't even believe it was possible?

AND THE SPIRIT SPOKE TO ME AND SAID, "TRAVIS, HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU PRAYED FOR things >> that you DIDN'T HAVE THE FAITH TO BACK IT UP WITH?" My God, THE FAITH TO RECEIVE. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, FAITH IS fertile ground for receiving A WORK FROM GOD. AND I HAVE DETERMINED IN MY SPIRIT THAT NEXT YEAR GOING TO be different for your boy.

I want to be in a posture to receive. I don't want to MISS HIS MOVE BECAUSE I DOUBT HIM. >> HALLELUJAH. >> GABRIEL. Gabriel reminded Zechariah, he said, "Yo, I stand in the presence of God." Very quickly, very quickly, there are three angels that we learn by name in the Bible.

Gabriel, he carries a word. Michael, he carries a sword. >> And then there's another angel that got fired. His name was Lucifer. >> He carried a song, a word, a sword, a song. And Lucifer was kicked out of heaven. And and this is how awesome your God is.

To show Lucifer, he was smelling himself up there, y'all. Smelling his own must. Feeling good. To show Lucifer that he wasn't irreplaceable. God said you was all majestic, angelic, beautiful, magnificent. But I'mma show you that I don't need all that to get glory. >> So I'mma pick this little small galaxy called the Milky Way. >> And this little See that dot down there?

That's actually going to be Earth. >> This is how God sees us, ladies and gentlemen. We not We ain't as big as we think we are. >> And in that dot called Earth, I'mma reach down and grab some dust. AND I'MMA MAKE SOME LITTLE DUST CREATURES. I THINK I'M GOING TO CALL them humans. >> And just TO SHOW YOU YOU AIN'T ALL OF THAT IN A BAG OF CHIPS. >> I'mma kick you out.

And the next song I want to hear is going to come from them little creatures down there. >> This is why as soon AS ZECHARIAH NINE MONTHS LATER CAME OFF MUTE, THE VERY FIRST THING HE DID WAS LIFT up a song. READ YOUR BIBLE AND PRAISE YOUR GOD.

YOU NO LONGER HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT. THIS IS WHY WHEN MARY WALKED INTO ELIZABETH'S HOUSE, SHE LIFT UP A SONG, READ YOUR BIBLE. BECAUSE WHEN I SING A NEW SONG TO THE LORD, I AM AGREEING THAT I HAVE RECEIVED HIS WORD OVER ME. OH MY GOD.

PRAISE IS AN INDICATOR THAT I'M IN AGREEMENT. AND IS THERE ANYBODY IN the room that says the enemy may take SOME THINGS, BUT HE CAN'T TAKE MY STUFF. THIS IS MY STORY. This is my song. PRAISING MY SAVIOR ALL THE DAY. I got a reason to sing. I got to move.

A word from God must be received. Number two, a word from God must be kept. >> Must be kept. Look at somebody tell them, "Keep it. Keep it. Keep it." >> See, a word is received in a moment, but it has to be carried through process. Oh, God.

Oh, God. Anybody ever had a carried a child before? Anybody ever had twins? Man, listen. I you are a blessing. You put your hand down, man. You ain't carry nothing. You're like, I had twins. No, she had twins. You gave them to her. I I Any woman who's carried before will tell you it matters how you carry. >> When I when I read through this, it amazed me that Mary for three months went to her cousin Elizabeth house.

And I asked the book questions because you can't just read the Bible. You got to read the Bible. I said, "Why did she go to Elizabeth's house?" I believe she went to Elizabeth house because Elizabeth was also carrying a word. Mary needed to be around another carrier. My God, carriers are drawn to carriers.

Man, in 2026, I have already made up my mind, ladies and gentlemen. I can't spend my time around empty people. I I can't spend my time around people trying to explain to you that I'm carrying something and trying to convince you. I can do it from here, but I can't do it at home.

Home is my san. You can't COME TO MY HOUSE AND ME BE SITTING there all day trying to convince you that you Now, I need you TO KNOW YOU GOT SOMETHING ON THE INSIDE OF YOU that the world didn't give you and the world CAN'T TAKE AWAY. LOOK AT YOUR NEIGHBOR AND TELL THEM, "I'M carrying something.

I'm carrying something. There's something in me that's greater than me." And it's one THING TO GET A word is another thing to keep a word. >> WHEN GOD CHOOSES, I like that word because it's his prerogative. WHEN GOD CHOOSES TO RELEASE A WORD, it comes with responsibility. >> How you carry determines how you birth. >> Good God.

So don't allow mismanagement to rob you of manifestation. Mary didn't just receive a word. She carried well. >> My Lord, the Lord told me to tell you, he's been conditioning you to carry well. >> When the Lord spoke to me about my music career, I didn't just I couldn't just sit on my hands and wait for it to happen. >> I had to work the word.

When God spoke to us about Jace, my wife had to fight for his life. When God spoke to us about Fort City, faith without works is death. >> So, you have to carry well. But number three, and I'm out of here. A word from God must be birthed.

God is a God who speaks, but someone has to birthe it. And I love our God because when he choose to speak, he speaks with the confidence that what he says will happen. >> The Bible is full of prophetic words from God. He spoke to Abraham. spoke to Abraham hundreds of years in advance and told him that your descendants going to have to be in Egypt for a while, but I'm going to let him out.

God spoke to Joshua and said, "The land is yours." Long before Joshua walked around the wall, God spoke to David and said, "The throne is yours before the giant fell or before Saul died." Because God does not need man's evidence to speak something. He is so confident in it.

And thousands of years before this Virgin Mary ever came on the scene, God told prophets exactly how and where this baby would be born. Ladies and gentlemen, the whole the whole entire Old Testament is full of prophecies that were given and prophecies that were fulfilled. I'm done here.

But for 400 years >> from Malachi to Matthew, God >> goes on mute. Zachchariah was muted for nine months. >> And God chose to put himself on silent mode for 400 years. >> There was no prophetic words. There were no signs. There were no dreams. There were no encounters.

And I asked him questions. I said, "What God? Why would a speaking God who has a track record of letting man know what's on the way choose to go silent? do not disturb for 400 years. >> And the Lord spoke to me. Are you ready for this? >> I'm going home. >> Who cooking today?

Let's go. Where did you go? >> I said, the Lord spoke to me. Do you want to know what he said? >> I said, WHY WOULD YOU GO SILENT FOR 400 years when you are clearly a God who likes to speak? And he said, I can tell you why.

He said, "The reason I went silent because this time I wasn't just sending a word. This time I was sending the word." >> And your Bible says in John 1:1, "In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God." He was with God in the beginning.

Through him all things were made. Without him nothing was made that had been made. AND WATCH VERSE 14. VERSE 14 SAID, "AND THE WORD became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only begotten son full of grace and truth."

The Bible says, "So Mary, watch the Bible, wasn't just carrying a word >> in her heart. >> She was carrying >> the word in her womb." >> Here's a gentle rebuke. I'm afraid that we become prophecy junkies. that we're just after another word. >> We're just, man, give me if I could go to this conference, I can get another word. >> And if I if I could tune in to this podcast, maybe I can get another word.

And if I can follow this person, maybe I can get another word. And God says, you're after another word when the truth is you haven't properly carried the word. >> Ah, here we go. Here we go. Here we go. Here we go. The word is Jesus. And what good is a word >> when you don't carry the word? >> What good is a word of a bigger house if you're just going to move in somebody else that you're not married to? >> Come on.

Merry Christmas. What good What good is a word of healing if you're going to continue to make poor health choices? >> Come on. COME ON. WHAT GOOD IS A WORD ABOUT money if you're going to keep overspending? And so the HEART OF GOD SPEAKS TO US TODAY AND HE SAYS, "I want people who don't just serve me for the next promise."

Come on. Come on. We treat him like Santa. God, here's my wish list. Here's my to-do list. And if you don't do it, I got an attitude with you. NO. GOD IS LOOKING FOR SOMEONE who will WORSHIP HIM BECAUSE NOT FOR THE NEXT PROMISE, BUT BECAUSE YOU'VE ALREADY RECEIVED THE GREATEST PROMISE.

AND LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE GREATEST PROMISE, THE GREATEST GIFT you can ever get for CHRISTMAS IS JESUS. THE WORD who clothed HIMSELF IN FLESH, WRAPPED HIMSELF IN SWADDLING CLOTHING, went into a manger just to live a perfect life >> and die a gruesome death. This past Friday, we went to their prison ministry, which is our custom in Georgia.

We do it every year. I've been doing it for like 23 years. We went down there and did prison ministry. And when I got up, we gave an opportunity, 1100 female inmates, moms and daughters, sisters, auntes. Some who made many mistakes, some who just had one bad night. >> And that one night cost them 20, 30, 40 years. >> And when I was there, when I was there, I did this call for people to receive the Lord.

And when I did it, hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people went up. And guess what I did not say? I did not say Jesus is going to pay your bills. >> So what does that matter? I didn't say I didn't say turn around three times, you're going to get married next year. >> I didn't say you get a new car, you get a new car.

No, no, no, no, no, no. Because what good are bills and what good is a new car? And what good is a wedding when the reality is some of these women would take their last breath behind a bob wire fence? They needed something more than just a Sunday morning hype show.

They needed something a little more than God, just do what I NEED YOU TO DO. Do what I want you to do. God, I need you to be my SUGAR DADDY. NO, THEY needed a savior. And ladies and gentlemen, the greatest miracle you can ever receive is the miracle of salvation.

And this king will leave his throne in glory >> just for you. >> The word >> receive him. >> The word. Carry him. >> Here's the great thing about your God. Your God created this thing. One day he just decided to created this thing called grace. >> My God.

And what grace says is that when you can't keep my word, >> the word >> will keep you. >> God says the truth is, here's the difference between law and grace. I'm done. Please stand so I can really be done. >> The truth is, ladies and gentlemen, Jesus don't really need you to carry him.

He said, "If you receive me, I'll carry >> you. >> I'll carry you and I'LL BIRTH THROUGH YOU. I'LL MANIFEST THROUGH YOU ALL OF MY PROMISES. I'LL I I'LL BIRTH THROUGH YOU MY GLORY." HERE WE GO. I'LL BIRTH through you my fruit. I want to leave you with this passage.

It's found in Luke 2:1. What an amazing promise. Says, "Today in the town of David, a savior has been born to you. He is the Messiah, the Lord. Watch this. This will be a sign to you. You'll find the baby wrapped in clothes, cloth, the lying in a manger.

If I was to suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, "Glory to God in the highest and on earth, watch the Bible, peace to those whom is favor rest. Look at somebody else. Tell them, "His favor is on you." >> The promise of his presence.

Here we go. I'm done right here. And this is what someone needs to hear. It's peace. The Bible says, "Peace for those whom favor rest on." Peace. God says, "If you keep your mind on me, I'll keep you in perfect >> peace." Isaiah wrote about him. He said he will be called wonderful counselor, mighty God, everlasting father, prince of peace.

If you're in this room today or watching around the world and you need the peace of a savior, would you lift your hands for a moment? I just want to pray over you. >> Just saying, God, I need peace in my mind. I I need peace in my heart.

I'm tired of staying up all night over that. I'm tired of being worried. Every year this time I go through seasonal depression. I need peace. When you receive him, you receive his peace. Prince of peace. Peace is his domain. He rules over it. When I get him, I get his peace.

God, I thank you for every heart that's lifted to you right now in this room. And I pray that you would give them perfect peace. >> I'm talking about the peace that don't need understanding. But the peace that surpasses >> all understanding. The peace that will guard. Would you do that for them?

Give them peace that will guard their heart and guard their minds. Allow them to be a carrier of the word. AND WHEN WE CARRY THE WORD JESUS IN US, FATHER, HE CARRIES US. AND WHEN YOU CARRY US, we get your peace. >> I pray that something that you heard in this message truly blessed your life.
