Good morning everybody. [Music] Good morning. Good morning. This is the day that the Lord has made. We rejoice. We are glad in it. Welcome to day six of the year of the bride fast. And today's topic is the war against worry. Again, that is the war against worry. Um, very powerful today. I'm excited about it because that's what most people do is worry. Let me make sure everybody online can hear me. Just say yes in the comments. If everybody over on YouTube can hear what it is that I am saying. Yes, perfect. Okay. So, let's just go ahead and uh I want to open it up in thanksgiving because Thanksgiving is incredibly powerful. And I just want you to thank God as if it's already done. That's actually one of the strongest warfare tactics against the enemy is thanksgiving. And that's because while you're waiting for what you're praying for, the enemy would have you to think that, you know, God is not answering you. God is God. Nothing that you're saying or nothing that you're doing, God is going to come through for it all. And that is just the attack of the enemy. So, I just want you to thank God. As you thank God, you end up magnifying God above your problem. It is actually subconsciously reminding yourself who's in charge. And as you thank God, I want you to remember that you're thanking your maker. You're actually thanking the one that put your cells all together. You're thanking the one that didn't just count the hair on your head, but he numbered them. I want you to be reminded that you're actually thanking the one that created heaven and earth in six days. He created all of what you saw and then he rested on the seventh. Not that he couldn't do it all in one day, but it was a template for us. I want you to thank him and remember that while you're thanking him, I want you to see God. Um because the Bible says that the heavens is his throne, the earth is his foottool. I want you to I want you to see yourself thanking the one that has his feet chilling on earth right now like it's just a regular foottool. And then I want you to remind yourself what clouds look like in the sky. The Bible says that the clouds are but dust to his feet. I want you to look at the dust on your floor right now because I'm sure you got some. And I want you to clean your house. Okay? But we're going to talk about that in a second. But I want you to look at the dust on your floor and I want you to see it as God saying the clouds in the sky are quite literally dusted his feet. That is the one that you're thanking. That is the one we serve. There are many different gods out here. Lowercase G, Buddha is a god. Muhammad is a god. Uh yoga is a god. But here about here the man that you having sex with outside of marriage is your god. Let's but be be very clear. There is only one true and living God. All those other gods are dead. All those other gods can't help you. All those other gods are statues. They can't breathe. They can't see. They can't think. They can't smell. They can't tell you what to do. They're dead. Dead. Dead. Dead. Dead. But we are the ones that serve the only true and living God. He is the living God. Life is in him because life is in the blood. So, I want you to just be reminded that you're not just thanking a simple man. A lot of the times we put God in the box and that's why you're losing faith. But we serve quite literally the living God. We serve the only one that can give you the answer. We serve the one that answers you by fire. I want you to open up your mouth and I want you to thank that God for answering your prayers. [Music] [Applause] Thank you. Oh my god. I said [Music] I [Music] Oh my god. Hey [Applause] everyone. [Music] I don't know. [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Applause] In the name of Jesus we pray. Amen. Sometimes it's very tempting to want to skip over this, especially if you're listening to the replay. Um, it's very tempting to want to skip over uh the praying in t I'm sorry, the praying and thanksgiving for a while. But I want you to build capacity in your ability to to give that God thanksgiving. You should be able to for an hour straight just unleash thanksgiving unto God. It is literally one of the most powerful things you can do. Um, and warfare is just really going to prayer. If you want to go into warfare prayer sometimes, go into warfare prayers and just thanking God for everything you're believing him for. And so, don't cut that short because you feel like you don't have enough to thank God about. You can pull from what he did when you were born. You can pull from what he did when you were 5 years old. You can pull from what he did when you were 16. You can pull from what he did when you were 22. You can pull from what he did when you were in the labor and delivery room. You can pull from what he did when you were on that flight. Like there are places you can pull from where you say, "You know what? I don't think I said thank you for this and it just came to my remembrance. Thank you that you kept me alive. Thank you that you healed my body. Thank you that there was a war coming and you didn't even allow me to see it cuz you took care of it before it came. Thank you for your supernatural support. That is the angels. Thank you that I'm not out here doing it by myself, but I have an advocate. I have a counsel of defense. I have my own intercessor, and his name is the Holy Ghost. Thank you for the blood that was shed on Calvary. You didn't have to give your son, but you did. I really appreciate that, God. I thank you that Jesus Christ didn't did didn't just die for me, but he also died as me on the cross. Thank you, God, for the blood. Thank you for the Passover. Thank you that I'm divinely exempt from anything that's getting ready to hit this earth. Thank you, God, that because of the blood, the death angel has to pass over me. Thank you, God. Thank you. Thank Thank you in my stupidity you kept me. Thank you for your mercy. Thank you for your grace, God. Thank you for setting me apart for such a time as this. Thank you for not allowing me to stay in those clicks and those groups and those circles. Thank you that even while I was ignorant of what they were doing behind my back, you weren't. That's why you rooted me up out of there. Thank you for doing the same to my children. Thank you that even though I may not know who they're around because they go to school, I thank you, God, that you are Jehovah over them. Thank you that you're setting them apart. Thank you for uprooting anybody in their life that would drag them away from you. Thank you in the name of Jesus Christ, that you are my perfect peace. Thank you that you Jehovah shalom over me. Thank you, God, that you don't play about me. I know people are mad that people are saying that you don't play about them, but that's scripture. you genuinely don't play about me and I really appreciate that. I thank you God that you're a wall of fire around me. I thank you that that fire is not normal fire but it is the wrath of God, the theophony of God. I thank you God that anybody that touches me touches the apple of your eye. I thank you that you are not just a strong tower around me but you are a stronghold. I thank you father that you are my defender and my protector. I thank you in that situation because I remembered it 13 years ago. I didn't have a way but you are you literally ca became way maker for me. Thank you for making ways out of no way. Thank you for being my way maker. And I thank you God for being my miracle worker. I thank you God that you are protocol breaker. I thank you that I never have to go through protocol. I don't care what everybody say everybody else got to go through and the process everybody got to go through and the line everybody got to wait in and the years everybody got to wait for it to happen. None of that applies to me because I'm your daughter and we have nepotism. So I thank you God that you break protocol for me in every area of my life. I thank you God for travel favor. I thank you that you put your secret service angels over me that whenever you send me to another nation, whenever you send me to a state, whenever you send me somewhere to preach the word of God or just traveling in general, you don't just have regular angels over me. You have secret service angels over me. Father, I just thank you. I thank you when the enemy tries to come in like a flood, it is you that lift up a standard against them. I thank you that I don't care who talk about me online. I don't care who open up their mouth and lie about me online. According to Psalm 64, I thank you, God, that their own tongues have already turned on them. I thank you that you've become an arrow, God, and you shoot yourself at them. I thank you in the name of Jesus, that there's absolutely no weapon, including the weapon of their lying tongue and their bitter words that are formed against me that could ever prosper. I thank you that you disarmed everybody that has a weapon against me. I thank you that you dismantled the weapon. I thank you, God, that you demilitarize and destabilize the people that had the weapon. I thank you in the name of Jesus, according to Isaiah 54:15, that surely they should gather together against me, but you let me know that it wasn't none of your doing and they will fall for your name's sake. I thank you, God, that all of these people that was dumb enough to come up against me falls in the name of Jesus Christ. I thank you, Father, that you have my back. You You said in your word, I don't care who landed the curse against me. You said they cannot curse who you have blessed. I call myself the blessed. And I thank you that you call me blessed. I thank you that your word said a curse causeless cannot come. And I thank you, Father, that while I'm guilty for many things, it is the blood of Jesus Christ that makes the curse causeless. I thank you, Father, that you have made the curse causeless on my behalf. I thank you that I don't care what curse they send my way, God, it dies midair. I thank you that you put a shield around me that is impenetrable against any curse, God. And I thank you, God, that it can never touch me in the name of Jesus because it is not because of me that the curse can't come. I'm guilty. I thank you that it is because of the blood of Jesus Christ that makes the curse causeless. Thank you. Thank you. I mean, I could go on, but you get my point. That was just me telling you what to do. You know what? Let me just add this one in for y'all. Father, I thank you. This is what y'all going to say. Father, I thank you that you brought me my husband. or if you're a man, God, I thank you that you brought me my wife. I thank you that even though for the last 2 years, 15 years, 6 years, 30 years, thank you, God, that no man or no woman looked your way and and you were just frustrated and it looked like everybody around you was getting married. But I thank you because of this fast that because you turned your your plate down, because you got rid of all idolatry, I thank you, God, for allowing uh the right man or the right woman to come into your life. I thank you in the name of Jesus that it didn't matter where this person was in the world, you brought us together bone to our bones, flesh to our flesh. I I thank you, God, for the architectural power of God that we are able to use the word of God to decree a thing and it shall be established. We're able to use the word of God to call out what we want in our husbands or our wives. And Father, you said you would give us the desires of our heart. Thank you for not even allowing us to pray a miss. Thank you, God, that you've answered us by fire and by force. We thank you, oh God, that you are the matchmaker of all matchmakers. And we thank you in the name of Jesus Christ for not even giving us what we wanted because we found out on day 1, 2, 3, four, five, and six that if we had have written down what we wanted in a spouse, it would have been stupid because we didn't realize we had all of this work to do. Thank you, God, for not giving us what we wanted 5 years ago. Thank you for not giving us that man or that wife that we wanted two years ago. Thank you because the kids would have ended up like telecom. We thank you God that even when we're like spoiled little children that are having temper tantrums and want our own way, you still see fit not to give it to us. And we thank you God for showing us why. We really appreciate your love and your kindness towards us. You are a good good father. Thank you Jesus. That's just it. I you could go on with that that you just thank God. God is God. God is good all the time. It doesn't matter if it doesn't look like things are going your way. It doesn't look like it doesn't matter what it looks like. God is good. God is good. God is good. You want to stop thinking that God is not good just because you don't have a husband or you don't have a wife. God is good regardless. God is good because you woke up in the morning. God is good because you were able to say and take breath in your in your lungs. God is just good. God is good. God is good. No matter what you got going on in life, God is good. Okay. So, today is war against worry. And uh if you would like the written instructions for the year of the bridefast, please go to um www.theyearofthebridefast.com. Again, that is the yearofthe bridefast.com. Enter your name and your email address and check your inbox and your spam folder because sometimes those emails land there. And also, just a reminder, you guys, um this is the the thumbnail you see right here is the only book for the year of the bridefast. There are other counterfeit books out there. I think it is incredibly um unintegral for anybody to write a book of the year, the bride fast or a workbook of the year, the bridefast. Um I think it's deceptive and I think it's unintegral and um and God is going to deal with that. But I just want you all to know that there is no other book I have out outside of this one. So please make sure that you are not falling for any of that scam and you're not purchasing those books. What is worry? Worry is defined as um the feeling of being anxious or troubled about an actual problem or a potential problem that hasn't happened yet. Okay, I'll say that one more time. Worry is defined as the feeling of anxiousness or being troubled about an actual problem or a potential problem that has not happened yet. Some of the synonyms of worry is to be anxious, to be fearful, to panic, to dwell on something, to be stressed, to torment yourself, agitation, to lose sleep or restlessness over something. Another definition of worry is mental distress or agitation resulting from a concern. Usually something that is anticipated or impending. Meaning none of this stuff has happened yet. Okay? It it has not happened. Another definition is mentally troubled or concerned. I want all of you to write this down. Worry is worship to the devil. Worry is worship to the devil. What faith is to God is what worry is to the devil. Very simple. When you worry, you are literally taking your precious time to worship the devil. Now, I want all of you to write down this scripture is uh Philippians 4:6, but I want to read it in four different versions for you today. The first version I'm going to read it in is the NLT. Philippians 4:6. Don't worry about anything. Instead, pray about everything. Well, Tiffany, I know God has a lot going on. There's other wars. People are dying. I feel pretty selfish about praying to God about something that I seem little. Listen to me. God said he was my father. I took that literally. I don't care what I got to go to God about. This scripture is very clear. He said, "Don't worry about nothing, Tiffany. Pray about everything. I don't care how big it is. I don't care how little it is. I take everything to God. I don't hold on to nothing." Okay? You won't stress me out. I take it all to God. He said, "Tell God what you need. Thank him for all that he has done. Then you will have experienced God's peace which exceeds anything that we can understand. That's your answer. How do we get peace that surpasses all human understanding? You take everything to God. You don't worry about anything. It says his peace will guard your heart and mind as you live in Christ Jesus. The message version says don't fret or don't worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers. I love that. Ooh, I just got a revelation. This just said, "Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers." What if there was a cell in your body that needed to be reshaped? that is that has perverted itself and petitions and praises shape and shape those bad cells into good cells. Now, that was just a revelation I got. You take that into prayer. Before you know it, a sense of God's wholeness, everything coming together for good will come and settle you down. It's wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life. And then I'll go on with the message version. And it says, "Suming it all up, friends, I say you'll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious, the best, not the worst, the beautiful, not the ugly, things to praise, not things to curse. Put into practice what you learned from me, what you heard and saw and realized. Do that and God who makes everything work together will work you into his most excellent harmonies. Then go with me to the Passion translation TPT. Don't be pulled in different directions or worried about a thing. Be saturated in prayer throughout each day, offering your faithfilled request before God with overflowing gratitude. Tell him every detail of your life. Then God's wonderful peace which transcends human understanding will guard your heart and mind through Christ Jesus. Keep your thoughts continually fixed on all that is authentic, real, honorable, admirable, beautiful, respectful, pure, and holy, merciful, and kind. And fasten your thoughts on every glorious work of God, praising him always. If you do that, God will give you peace in all things. And last but not least, I want to read it in the Amplified Classic. The Bible says in the Amplified Classic, "Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything by prayer and petition, which is definite requests, make thanksgiving, or with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God. And God's peace shall be yours, that tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ." And so fearing nothing from God and being content with this earthly lot of whatever sort that is that peace which transcends all understanding shall garrison and mount guard over your heart and mind in Christ Jesus. And of course you can read it on your own time in the KJV. But my point is he's given us the blueprint here on how to stay out of anxiety. The only way to stay out of anxiety, the o literally the only way is to don't worry about anything, to pray about everything, to tell God what you need, to thank him for all you have. And if you do that, you'll experience peace greater than the human mind can understand. Okay. Um, another scripture I want to give you is Matthew 6:33. Most of us already know that scripture, but it says, "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and these things will be added to you." Now, the and of course the the next verse says, "Therefore, take no thought for tomorrow, for tomorrow shall take thought for the things of itself, sufficient until the day is the evil thereof." What I think is very powerful about Matthew 6:33 is where it says, "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things will be added to you." Is the way I got a revelation of that is when you mind God's business, he will mind your business. I want to put you in remembrance today that we are not fasting um begging God for an answer. God has already answered us. The answer is yes and amen. We're already in agreement with God concerning his answer. The answer is yes and amen. We are not begging God for anything because we're not beggars. We literally have we quite literally have an inheritance, right? The answers already are. So, I feel like some of y'all needed to be reminded of this that the answer is already yes. The reason that we're fasting is because there's quite a lot of reasons why your prayers don't get answered. Pride is one and fasting is the number one cure to pride because it kills your flesh, right? Unforgiveness is a reason that you don't get your prayers answered. He said, "Keep your gift at the altar. Don't ask me for nothing until you get get that straight." Um, uh, obviously generational curses, um, iniquities in the bloodline, things of that nature. So, all we're doing is just cleaning up our house, right? Um, we're just tilling our land. We are repairing the the um the we're we're restoring the broken covenants. We're restorers of the breach. There was a breach in the covenant that God was supposed to make. Idolatry, thank you. Is definitely a reason your prayers aren't getting answered. And so the answer is already yes. Your your your promise is hovering over your head right now, waiting. It cannot wait to drop over you. Okay? It cannot wait. But there are a lot of reasons why it has not dropped down on you. And those are some of the reasons why. So, we're fasting to get rid of anything that could stand in the way of that flood, that godlike flood to come in and get you. Okay. Oh my gosh. So good. Marilyn. Woo. Pride and bride is one letter different. My god. Let me write that down. Now that is good. Let me tell y'all why that is good. And for those of you that don't know why we're very excited about these onelet different words because I feel like God is telling us something about all of this. I I I'm fully persuaded. I am fully persuaded right now that we we got the cure for something. I just don't know, you know, but I I'm fully persuaded that God is giving us the answer for something major here. But let me tell you why that's powerful is because normally whenever God gives you a prophetic word, um there is going there is a perverted problem that's that's headed your way. There is never a time that the enemy is like, "Oh my gosh, that's so powerful. You got you got this word. Let me get out your way." No, that's not how that works. There's normally an issue that's going to come up to pervert that that thing so that the prophetic word does not come to pass in your life. Now, with the year of the bride fast, obviously, at the very first one we had, God warned us that mad men were going to arise. And I did not have a lot of revelation on that at the very beginning outside of watching men just completely lose their mind out of nowhere. They began to kill their wives, their girlfriends, their children, and themselves. They were literally losing their mind. And then as uh time went on with this fast, God began to um reveal that the madman's spirit was rooted in Leviathan. Okay? It was rooted in the spirit of pride, the king of all pride. So here we have the year of the bridefast and the number one spirit that was coming against this thing was the spirit of Leviathan, the king of all pride. That's why that what Marilyn just said was incredibly powerful to me is because there's just one word that's different from bride and pride. This is why you see a lot of men in ministry come against me. It is not just these men, you guys. If you could look at this with a in the realm of the spirit with spiritual eyes, it is actually a spirit of Leviathan. It is a Leviathan spirit, the king of pride that is coming against my assignment because apparently what it's letting me know is that I'm very effective for a generation. Um because it wouldn't come after me so aggressively if I wasn't, you know, effective for this generation. So you see a Jezebel spirit and Leviathan spirit coming against me a lot. And that is because the very thing that we're praying about is that we become um the bride of Christ cleaned up for God, you know, cleaning up our bloodline and generation. You think the enemy is okay with me doing that? Like do you think the enemy is okay with me? Here's the thing. We're talking about seeds and all that. I got saved August 2015. Just one girl in her shower making a stupid decision. My one yes to God. Look at my platform. My one yes to God has yielded you all as seeds. My one yes to God is taking a generation of people and say they're saying now my bloodline won't be what I went through. I'm turning this around. One person's yes to God. Look at what God has allowed me to do. I could never I could have never done this in my own in my own nature. I don't have the personality type to make y'all like me. Let's just be honest. I don't have the personality type to make any of you like me. It could have only been the hand of God that was on my life. And he used me as a seed. I told you the very first thing that God did when I got saved was put me in a ministry of prayer and fasting. The second I began to fast, that was a death to myself. It was seeds going in the ground. And the second I began to fast and killed my flesh. Those seeds went in the ground and it yielded this kind of harvest in the life of you. I may not ever see my all my all of what my impact did on this side of heaven. Even when I live until I'm 103, I may not ever see it. But do know that I understand the impact I have on this earth. It is not a little thing. I don't take my assignment lightly at all. And I just want you to know, wow, that revelation was so powerful because bride and pride, that is a very that is why many of your husbands, those of you that are married, are so full of pride. It is literally them coming up against the prophetic word. But I want to encourage you today that they can't win. Your husband or your wife can't win. They can never win above God. They can buck up at the system. They can have temper tantrums in the realm of the spirit and in the natural. They can fight against you in the natural and try to make your life a living he hell. But I do want you to understand that they can't win because they're going up the against the one that has never lost a battle. When you are when you are bloodbought believer of Jesus Christ and you have outfitted yourself in the full armor of God and you are going in the name of your father, the name of Jesus Christ, right? You're not going in your own name. So when that person is now fighting up against you, they can't win because they're not fighting you. They're fighting the one who sent you. You may not have the platform I have on social media or in this or in this generation, but you do. You are this important in your home. You are this important in your home. Stop thinking that your assignment is a little thing because you don't have a mic and you got 2,000 followers on social media. No, your assignment is this important at home. Very powerful. Thank you for sharing that. Very, very, very powerful. So, I want you to make a vow today. This is what you're we're all going to do. Write this down. You're going to make a vow that you're going to worship God before you worry about anything. I shared a testimony on uh my YouTube page and you can just go to the search bar and put in give God custody Tiffany Montgomery. Again, you can give you can write down give God custody um Tiffany Montgomery. You can watch that testimony. It's a testimony of when my my daughter's father stole her from me back in 2017. And you may say, Tiffany, a father can't steal the daughter. He he stole her. Okay? And I mean that literally. He was supposed to bring her back on Christmas vacation and was like, "I'm not bringing her back. I've enrolled her into a school. Fight me." And that I did. I fought and won. But I did not fight with natural weapons. I fought with spiritual weapons. Okay? That's when I began to learn the very valuable lessons of what it meant when God said, "The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds." I want you to hear me and hear me very quickly. While the world may laugh at our spiritual weapons, right? because they deem weapons like guns and bombs and things of that nature. While the world may laugh at our spiritual weapons, the kingdom of hell is horrified of our spiritual weapons. Let's just be very clear. Demonic powers are horrified of our spiritual weapons. And I decided in that moment to not fight against her father, but I decided to fight for my daughter. that you gota you gotta go and watch the testimony and I also wrote a book I'm gonna actually put the book on Amazon. So, um just give me a little bit of time. I'm gonna put that book on Amazon with the title give God custody. So, uh cuz it I just think that even that small thing that I did sometimes we're like I'm going to fight against this person instead of saying you know what I'm gonna fight for that. That was such a a perspective shift in that. My point is everything in me decided that I could worry, right? I called the police. They said she was 16. I couldn't get her back. Mind you, this was across state lines. I called the courthouse. Like, I have custody papers. He stole her and they said, "Well, we can't even get you a court date for four months." I'm like, "Four months?" I call everybody. Nobody can help me. So, worry started to set in, right? And then it was like clockwork. The Holy Ghost said, "Make a vow to me to worship me before you worry." Let me tell you what was powerful about that. When you're going through something like I went through, it was very, very difficult for me. And it didn't last long. Let me tell you, the second I decided to put down my plate and fast, I got an answer in a day. Okay, but let me go back to the point. The point is, you may say, Tiffany, you don't know what the doctor said or you don't know what's going on. You don't know what the judge said. You don't know what's going on. I do know what worry looks like. I do know that when something seems impossible, worry can literally come and and and just set wave a flag and say worry is here. But when I heard the Holy Ghost say, "Make a vow to worship me before you worry." That wasn't to say, he didn't say, "Don't worry at all." Right? This is what I loved about it. He was like, "No, you can you you can worry. Just worship me before you worry." And what I thought about that was so powerful was that when I worshiped God, the worry went away. Now, I may have had to do that at that time on the hour, every hour, right? The worry came back at 2 o'clock and I worshiped God and it went away and then it came back at five o'clock and then I worshiped God and it went away and then it came back right before I went to sleep at 11 o'clock and I worshiped God and it went away. So this was a perpetual system of me making a vow to worship. And it wasn't that I couldn't worry. It was just that by the time I worshiped the worry disappeared. I couldn't work. It did. The worry just literally left. Right? And so I want you to make a vow today for the rest of this fast and really for the rest of your life because that strategy was given to me in 2017 and I still use it today. I still use it today. I made a vow. When you make a vow to God, that is a covenant you're making to God. The second worry comes in, your job is to immediately cut it off by worshiping. Go with me to second um Corinthians chapter 10. 2 Corinthians chapter 10 where it says for the for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal meaning we're not using knives even though I would have really liked to have stabbed her father and just shot him right because what he did was wrong but 2 Corinthians chapter 10 verse4 reminded me that the weapons I needed to use against him was not carnal But my weapons were mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds. Now this is what was powerful about this word stronghold in this this scripture. This word means castle, fort, fortress. It means anything on which you rely on. I want you to think right now anything that you rely on that is a stronghold. A stronghold is an argument or a reasoning by which the person disputing starts to fortify his opinion and defend it against his opponent. That's powerful. It also means a castle which means here an argument. It means to fortify. So obviously in that situation, his argument against me had become a stronghold because I couldn't get her back the natural way. And but God said, "Tiffany, you don't need a gun. You don't need a knife, but the weapon that I gave you is mighty through God, and it's going to pull down this stronghold." My job was to cast down imaginations. Okay? The word cast down means to throw down violently and with force. The word cast down means to demolish the subtle reasonings likened to a fortress. Cast down is not a lightning. It is violent. It is violent. So you cast down imaginations. What is the word imaginations? It literally means arguments or a thought. And every high thing, okay? every high thing. What is a high thing? That thought that you have is so elevated and so high. It doesn't matter what the word of God said, you believe the lie of the enemy anyway. That's what a high thing is. That that that thought, it doesn't matter that God said you will not die, but you will live to declare the works of the Lord. That thought of death comes in, you're like, you just must be getting ready to go soon. That's a high thing. is something that you have elevated above the word of God. So you're casting down the number one the imagination or in other words the argument or the thought that the enemy is putting in your mind and you're also casting down every high thing that exalts itself right that raises itself up in pride against the knowledge of God. What is the knowledge of God? The the word of God is the knowledge of God. Now, that's not the only thing that you do because normally we stop there. We just cast Well, some of you don't even do none of this, but for those of you that do, you stop there. You cast down the imaginations. You cast down the high thought that exalted itself against the word of God. But you don't do the next thing, which he says, "And bringing into captivity." You got to arrest it to bring into captivity. Tiffany, I don't know what that means. Like, what does that mean? The word bringing into captivity means in the strongest concordance to capture one's mind. You literally have the power to take authority over your mind and say no I no you have authority to stop that thought and take dominion over the thought in the name of Jesus Christ. You can choose right now to stop the thought. That's how powerful you are. You are not a victim. You want to know what's so powerful about the definition of the word victim? I'm going to tell you cuz I told you before, but I'mma tell you again because I thought this was so powerful. This is all of you that are in victim mentality. You're just a victim victim. Everybody always doing something to you. Do you know the definition of the word victim means a living creature killed as a religious sacrifice? Do you understand that you being a victim is not of God? You're literally at an evil altar. You're not a victim. That is just the regular Google definition. That's not even a Strong's concordance definition. If you Google de victim definition, it says a living creature killed as a religious sacrifice. You're an offering to that altar. You're an offering to that altar. It is very disturbing. You're an al you're an offering to that evil altar in your bloodline. Every time you are a victim in your situation, well, Tiffany, I can't stop the thought. You're not a victim. You have the power and the authority to stop that thought. Every thought of anger, every thought of lust. There is nobody that was more angry than me when my daughter's father stole her from me. I had the right, according to the world, to be angry. But I also understood the repercussions of me opening up the door to anger. And so I decided to fight God's way and not my own way. I immediately stopped those thoughts. I stopped paying attention to him. I ain't never talked to the man since 2017. I don't I forgiven him. I seen him at her graduation. She's she's 25 now. You think I said a word? No. I made a vow. I will never talk to you again. And I meant every word. Okay. That's been since 2017. I spoke to that man. I don't know that man. Sorry to that man. Okay. I don't know him. I stopped the thoughts of anger. You have the power to stop thoughts of lust. You have the power to stop thoughts of fear. You have the power to stop thoughts of vi um um bitterness. You have the power to stop thoughts of evil and wickedness. You have the power to stop thoughts of jealousy and envy. Whatever those thoughts are in your heart right now, you have the power, you are so powerful that you have the power to stop that thought. Okay? Every negative thought you have, every negative thought you had is an argument against the mind and methods of God. Those thoughts are that those thoughts that go against what scripture says are so prideful that it thinks it know more than God does. I need you to look at every negative thought that comes in your mind as literally the devil talking to you and it thinks it knows more than what God knows. The stronghold of that reasoning in your mind is so powerful that it sets itself deep like roots in your heart and in your mind and then it shows in the fruit of your actions and your thinking. But it's the power of God that breaks down those strongholds. It is the weapons of God that breaks down those strongholds. I want you to be encouraged today that every stronghold in your life can be pulled down. That's the good news. Yes. Everything in your life, Tiffany, this seems impossible. My life is a hot mess. Every time you talk, I just see worse and worse and worse. No, baby. The good news is now you can see the problems that are hindering your prayers from being answered. And the good news is you work for the one that has given you all the power to break down these strongholds. That is good news. That's encouraging news. So number one, um you're going to repent for the sin of worry because it is a sin. And also, how could I forget? Um, 2 Timothy uh what is it? Yeah, 2 Timothy chapter 1:7. Go with me really quickly. For God has not given you the spirit of fear. Okay? Because worry is also synonymous with the sp the the the name the fear. Fear also means being a coward. Those of you that are cowards, you don't never stand up for nothing, right? Cuz you just scared of everything. You're a coward. Do you know the Bible said a coward will not inherit the kingdom of heaven? That's scary. Cowards, God has not given you the spirit of fear, but he gave you power, love, and a sound mind. Anytime you're not walking in power, love, and a sound mind, which is stability in your mind. You're not double-minded. You're stable in your mind. You have stability in your life. Then you're operating in the spirit of fear. The spirit of fear is not normal. I know they wrote books that says, you know, feel the fear and do it anyway. And those are quotes and books that people wrote and people quote it all the time. But the spirit of fear is from the devil. It's not from God um at all. And so I just want to put that there. But your homework assignment for today is to number one repent for the sin of worry. Repent for the sin of worry. Okay? And again, what is worry? You're anxious and you're troubled about something that hasn't even happened yet. Some of you have um health anxiety. What is that called? Hypocchondria. Some of you have You're always anxious about your children. You're always anxious about what's getting ready to happen on the earth. You're always anxious about, you know, another virus be hitting the earth. You know, things of that nature. There's so much anxiety and it hasn't even happened. A lot of you are hypochondri. A lot of that stuff, y'all, you may say, "How did this even happen?" It's generational. If you start asking around to your family, you'll realize that your grandma was scared of the same thing and your grandfather was scared of the same thing and your auntie was scared of the same thing and your mama and your father was scared of the same thing. A lot of this worry you have did not come from you. It is generational. Break it. Repent for the sin of worry. And even if it's become an iniquity, you know, the second thing you're going to do is renounce or in other words, divorce yourself from the sin of um uh you're going to divorce yourself from the covenant you made with worry. The covenant you made with worry. Break it. Divorce yourself from it. Okay? Divorce yourself from the covenant you made with worry. Divorce yourself from the covenant you made with anxiety. divorce yourself from it in the name of Jesus. It also means to torment yourself. And we talked about torment with unforgiveness. Okay? And then you're going to replace it. Well, Tiffany, how do I replace it? Your homework assignment is to look up all the antonyms of the word worry. Okay? You're going to go and look up all of the antonyms of the word worry. What does that word mean? calm, confidence, stability. It means to um s uh be quiet and tranquility, pacify. Okay, it means ease and peace and relief. Those are the opposites of the words worry. And then you're going to set in place your vow to worship God before you worry. That is your vow. You're going to put that system in place. When worry tries to hit you like a fiery dart, remember a fiery dart is just a welltimed suggestion. A fiery dart. Oh, Lisia, that was good. She said sick of mind. You know the sycam mind tree, but she spelled it sick of mind. M I N D. See, I'm telling y'all, God is just giving y'all all types of revelation. That is powerful. Sick of mind. M I N D. Everybody write that down on your notebook. That tree is not just a regular tree. It has everything to do with your mind. So good. But I just want you to remember that the fiery dart is a welltimed suggestion. Okay. So when worry tries to hit you like a fiery dart, you're going to lift up your shield of faith. What does that look like? When you begin to worship God, you can only worship God in faith. Brandy says, "Sick in the mind." Somebody said, "Y'all are clever." I'm telling you, this is good to me. So good. So, I hope you have your homework assignment, everybody. Um, yeah. That's it for today. And then yeah, this is so good. I'm so excited about it because we're going to be a people that just don't worry about anything. We just trust that God has it all under control. He's God. It doesn't benefit you to worry about nothing. No way. It's never It's never helped you in life. It's never made anything come faster than what it did. Um, and so it's just very, very, very powerful. What was number three? Number three was to replace it with the opposite word, the antonym of the word worry. You were going to um prophesy that over your life. You were going to say, "In the name of Jesus, I come into the covenant of of peace. I come into the covenant of ease." Do you know that the word disease is not just disease, it is disease, disease. And the opposite of the word worry is ease. So, you're just going to prophesy over your life. Everything about your life has ease. Everything the cells of your body have ease. Your marriage is is ease. Your children are ease. Your labor is ease. Um how revelation comes to you is ease. How you're able to apply this revelation is ease. Everything is ease. You need to confess ease. Ease. Ease. Ease. Ease. This is just you are quite and you know I don't know if you guys know this but ease is the um definition of the word prosperity. Yep. One of the definitions of the word prosperity in the Bible is, you guessed it, ease. So ease is a lot more important and powerful than you will ever imagine. And um the reason why this ease is important for you to know is because this remember is a Roman god lowercase G. And the assignment is to separate you from anything. And so that god lowercase G dis is there to separate you from the ease of God. So, it's not just the word disease. It is disease. And we're not going to allow anything to separate us from the ease of God. As a matter of fact, in Romans chapter 8, the very last verse, it says, "What can separate you from the love of God?" Or the way I would put it is, "What can separate me from the ease of God?" Nothing. Okay? What can separate you from the ease of God? Nothing. So good. So good, you guys. I'm excited about today. Um, if you guys missed the assignment that I gave, you're just going to have to come back and listen to the replay. Make sure you write down all of the scriptures given. Make sure you write down the homework assignments and let's get to work. You know, over the weekend, this is time, plenty of time for you to catch up on everything that you missed, everybody. So, take time to catch up on all of the days. Take time to catch up on the homework assignments. Take time to study the scriptures. Take time to write out your prayer points. Take time to just worship before God and let's just dig up. We're getting ready to go into um week number two. And we have done a lot of work to root out, to pull down, to tear down, and to destroy. We got a little bit more work to do in that area, but we are getting some good work done. And we're all doing this by faith, right? So don't be worried about not getting it perfect. Um the blood of Jesus Christ covers us all and it is powerful. So yeah, we will be live tomorrow by God willing and um tomorrow's day seven and so I will see you then. Let's go ahead and take our communion. As a reminder, it is the blood of Jesus Christ that breaks the yoke, right? Um it is the blood that is a pattern interrupter. And so as you take your communion, you're taking that as a reminder to you that the blood of Jesus Christ breaks every demonic pattern in your bloodline. Every evil pattern that you do not want to see, it is completely broken in the name of Jesus Christ. Um yes, you can absolutely take communion multiple times a day. Um absolutely. And you're just taking it in remembrance. And the reason I don't think there's anything wrong with taking it multiple times a day is because the enemy does not mind giving you bad thoughts multiple times a day, right? And if you're taking the blood of Jesus Christ in remembrance, um you're just literally every single chance you get just reminding yourself of what the blood did. Um is very powerful. So if you uh if you guys are not getting the emails, please check your spam folder because sometimes the emails land there. So, please check your spam folder and if you want the written instructions to the year of the bridefast, go to the year of the bridefast.com. Again, that is the yearofthe bridefast.com and um that's that. I will also be releasing the tickets to cover by God on Sunday and I I released them first to the everybody on my email list. So, if you would like tickets to that, which will be in Atlanta, um you may want to go and get on the email list. So, all right, let's go ahead and take our communion. Also, as you take your communion, you're going to take it as uh the reminder as well that you are divinely exempt. Okay? Remember the word Passover means to be exempt. Divine exemption. So, you are exempt from whatever your bloodline got going on. Father, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, we thank you for the blood. We thank you for the body of Jesus Christ and we apply that to our life, our family, our marriages, our safety, our finances, our ministry, our work, everything that pertains to us. Father, with the blood of Jesus Christ, in the name of Jesus Christ, we declare that every curse, hex, vex, witchcraft, enemy assignment against our life is broken. Every word curse, God is broken. Every generational curse is broken. Every time release curse is broken, God, every written curse is broken. Every evil thing concerning us falls dead to the ground right now. It bears absolutely no fruit. Father, we loose the promise of Psalms 91 over our lives. Specifically today, God, Psalms 9:11, no evil shall befall us, neither shall any plague come near our dwelling. We thank you, God, that we dwell under the secret place of the most high God and we are uh covered under the shadow of the Almighty. Father, we thank you that you are an impenetrable shield around us. You are our stronghold and our strong tower and you keep us safe, protect us, and you bless us. Father, you said whatever we bind on earth is bound in heaven and whatever we loose on earth is loosed in heaven. Today we loose God your healing over every cell of our body with every breath that we take. We loose your resurrection life. We loose your joy, your peace. We loose your righteousness, your power, and God, we loose your perfect shalom. When we declare over our lives that there is nothing broken and nothing missing. In the mighty and matchless, undefeated name of Jesus the Christ, we pray. Amen. Amen. [Applause] Amen. [Applause] Hallelujah.
