I See Angels, Part I - Touré Roberts

6:48 In other words, I'm in two dimensions. Father, we thank you so much for your word. It is a lamp unto our feet. It is a light unto our path. Hallelujah. In the beginning was the word, and the word was you, and the word was with you, and all things that will be made will be made, therefore, by your word. And even as your word became flesh and dwelt among us, I thank you, God, that this word will become flesh and move throughout the hearts and the minds of your sons and daughters present and watching. And God, in alignment and agreement with that, may the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight. I thank you that you've given me the spirit of wisdom and revelation and insight and knowledge and prophecy and full access to heaven's resources, is full access to the throne room, God, that I might not simply be standing in front of your people, but that I might be like Elijah who said, Jehovah before whom I stand. So may I stand in two dimensions and release your word that will edify, build up, enlighten, activate, heal, and do all the wonderful things that takes place when your word is released. We claim victory today.

8:15 In Jesus' name, amen. Amen. God bless you. Please be seated and show some love to somebody on your way down. Say something very, very kind to them. Let's go to work. And that I will do by the grace of God. If you've been listening to anything that I have been saying since the year began, I've been talking a lot about clarity. and this is not just a subject that I think is a cute subject to talk about or because I don't have anything else to talk about. The Lord has got me talking about clarity right now because we're living in a time that's going to require clarity and boldness unlike ever before. In this season, you're going to need to be clearer than you've ever been, and you're going to need to be bolder than you've ever been in these times. And there is a connection between boldness and clarity.

9:14 Because the clearer you are, the bolder you can be. Oh, we're going to have some fun today. I'm learning that boldness is actually one of the byproducts of clarity. So clarity is not simply about being clear, but it's having the ability, watch this, to see differently.

9:35 See the difference. It's not just being clear. It is a shift in how you see. And when you see clearly, that is what creates belief. You're going to need notes today. Take notes down and maybe I'll send you my notes. I'll do that. I'll upload my notes. Upload my notes. We'll figure that out. We'll get it to you. Clarity, watch this, clarity creates belief. The clearer I am, the more I believe. That's why even Habakkuk says, watch this, write the vision and do what? And make it plain that they may run who read it. So think about it. When you're not clear, you hesitate because you're not clear and you're not sure, you're uncertain, but the clearer you get, the stronger your belief. Are you tracking with me? And so clarity is connected to belief, but clarity that is fully mature takes you from believing to this wonderful thing called knowing. Might I take my time and preach the word of God today? Knowing, see there's a difference between believing and knowing, right?

10:57 believing is, is, is knowing is believing full grown. Oh, I wish I had that. Knowing is believing full grown, but believing will get you saved. Believing will get you into heaven. Knowing will allow you to bring heaven to earth. Play with me. Yeah. Believing will get you saved. Right? The disciples were, you know, I believe, but what else did they say? Help my unbelief. So believing will get me saved, but knowing will push me into purpose. I believe help my unbelief, right? At a time when Jesus was teaching them how to flow.

11:52 So if I believe and I never get to the point of knowing, then I'll be stagnant. And you might as well just take me on up to glory. But there's a reason why I'm still here. I am still here because God is working something in me And he who has begun a good work in me, watch this, is completing it until the day of Jesus Christ. Oh, I wish I had it. For I was with you.

12:19 So knowing, Lady Tanya, how wonderful it is to see you back here in worship and leading us. Uh-huh. Hey! We give an honor where honor is due. And when honor is due. so knowing as I mentioned is belief that is fully grown it's fully grown and I need to know because when I know I move differently in fact in Daniel chapter 11 and 32 the Bible says that those who know their God will be strong and carry out exploits and the context of this prophecy is the last days. Daniel was talking about the last days. He said in the last days, they're going to move to and fro. That means that things are going to be accelerated.

13:37 And it says a whole bunch of things in that text. It talks about how those who dishonor the covenant, those who disrespect the covenant, those who disobey the covenant are going to be tossed to and fro. They're going to be deceived. It says, but those who know their God, they are going to be strong and they're going to carry out exploits and how many of us know that we are in a time where exploits are ripe this season for exploits this season for for the powerful fruit from believers is upon us and belief alone ain't gonna get you there just turn to your neighbor and say help my unbelief. My belief is not the problem. My unbelief is the problem. So, so, so knowing is the highest level of faith. Hello, somebody. I believe that this knowing that I'm describing is, you know how the Bible talks about having faith in Christ, but in some places it talks about the faith of Christ.

14:45 Faith has levels. We also know that because one of the expressions or manifestations of the Spirit is faith. Paul's writing that to the church of Corinth who are already saved. But he puts there in when he's talking about the nine expressions of the Spirit, one of them literally is faith. That lets us know that faith has levels. oh we're gonna have some fun today it has levels I'm thinking about when Jesus said said if you have faith the size of a mustard seed just a little thing then you can speak to a mountain and it'll move now what he was not saying was that little faith move stuff he was saying that faith is a seed and it has the capacity and the ability to grow and be as big as it needs to be in order to fulfill what God is calling you to do.

15:44 so faith has levels and I believe that when you come to this place where you transcend believing and you start moving and knowing that is when you're going to see the exceedingly and the abundantly and the far above what you can ask for or imagine worked and produced through your life turn to your neighbor and say help my unbelief Knowing is the highest level of faith. And watch this. And it happens through the evolution of how we see. How we see. Track with me. We see great leaders of old. I know I do this. I see great leaders of old in the scripture. Elijah and Elisha and others.

16:37 and I look at them and there was something different about them. You ever been there before? You see these people and you're kind of like, man, I wish I hadn't had. I mean, they're standing up to lions. They don't care about no fiery furnace. lions I remember my first ILS 2014 and Bishop Jakes had a lion out there in a cage and then and Bishop started preaching and he started talking about come out the cage come out your cage and I was trying to receive the word but I was like if he opens that cage and that line comes out I am out of here I'm gone in Jesus name.

17:36 All you're going to see is elbows. Just. But you see, people of faith being so bold that they don't mind being in a den alliance what was it about them they didn't just believe They knew but where did that radical boldness come from the truth is hear me clearly the truth is they were seeing differently this wasn't about personality it was about perspective oh god I feel it you think boldness is I'm gonna get this boldness I gotta I I got to hype myself up to be bold.

18:41 I got to become somebody. I got to go to the gym. Man, I'm going to come out and be bold. Or I got to get my money. When my money comes up, I'll be bold. No, baby. It's not about your prosperity or your personality. It is about how you see. Because when God gets you to a place where you begin to see right, and I'm telling you, that's what we're moving into. you're going to be bolder than you've ever been before and you're going to go farther than you've ever been before and if you receive that right now just say God make me bold boldness is your inheritance can't wait to unpack this listen when we think about David and Goliath David didn't become bold in the valley when he was there to fight Goliath.

19:37 He arrived there bold because of what he had already seen by the anointing. When the prophet Samuel anointed David, it didn't just mark him for a future throne. It recalibrated his sight. oh stay with me it recalibrated how he saw things right he he saw differently so so when david steps in to the valley of elah israel is seeing a giant saul is seeing a threat the army is seeing defeat but david sees something else David sees spoil he sees the victory what shall be given to the man that conquers he had already seen him winning watch this he was appalled at the challenge
