Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
I see something.
Torre Roberts
I see hunger in this room and. Hold on a second. Listen to me. Listen to me, because that song goes hard. We wrote it. You know, you can listen to it when you get home. But there is a. Or even in the car. It's called All Authority. Woman Evolved Worship.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Got you covered. But right now
Torre Roberts
I'm picking up on something from you because I always. I want to do what God wants me to do. And your soul is crying out for an instruction. I sense it. I would never stop worship unless I sensed that what God wanted to do in this particular moment was greater than your worship. And I know it to be true. So I have a word from God for you. And I'm going to speak this word so that it can resonate and begin to activate before I even minister. The word. Here is the word. Get in position. Get in position.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
That's the word you've been waiting for.
Torre Roberts
Get. Get in. Get in position. Today is February 22nd. 2. 22. 222. I don't claim to be a numerologist. I don't get into some of the things that we attribute to celestial things, everything. That's just that. That's not my thing. Yeah, okay. But God does speak to me, and numbers are significant. And God does speak to me through numbers. For me, 222 represents kairos, the two words for time in the New Testament. Two primary words for time. One is chronos and the other is kairos. Chronos is where we get our word chronological, so it deals with the actual time it is. I'm not gonna tell you what time it is, but it is a certain time. Y' all be all right. And then kairos is a different word. And kairos means an appointed time. And so when you see that word used in the Greek, it's when you know you'll see phrases like and in the process of time, or the time has come. So it speaks to a divinely appointed time, Kairos. So 222 for me speaks to Kairos. Why two? Two speaks to witness and agreement. Amos 3:3. Can two walk together except they are agree? Genesis 2 speaks to Adam and Eve and the two became one. It's agreement right there. Out of the mouth of may things be established. May every word be established. Out of the mouth of two or three witnesses, may everything be established. Jesus sent the disciples out by two. So two in my estimation, has to do with a witness, a faithful witness, truth and alignment.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
So whenever I see two two, two,
Torre Roberts
I pause and I pray and I begin to investigate and interrogate whether or not I am in alignment with God. And I pay attention and I look for things because it represents kairos. Today is 2, 2, 2. I want to draw your attention really quickly. I cannot do all that I have to do, but I'm going to do all that God gives me the grace to do. Haggai Chapter two. I didn't even need Haggai chapter. There's another two. I never even saw that. Y' all see y' all got this at 9 o'. Clock. Didn't get that.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Hi.
Torre Roberts
Haggai 2, 6, 9.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
For thus says the Lord of hosts,
Torre Roberts
Once more it is a little while. Once more I will shake heaven and earth, the sea and dry land, and I will shake the nations, and they shall come to the desire of all nations. That's. That's crazy. God says, I'm going to shake the nations.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
And in that shaking process, they're going
Torre Roberts
to come to what they desire even though they didn't know they desired it. I wish, I wish I had time to really unpack that the Lord God, Jesus right now is the desire of nations. Yeah, God is the desire that people don't know what to desire. Wish I can say that better.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Your soul, every soul of humanity desires nation, but they have not.
Torre Roberts
Some have not labeled, pinpointed what that desire is and given it expression in a name.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
So God in scripture says, oh, I
Torre Roberts
am the desire of nations.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Trust me, they just know it yet.
Torre Roberts
They just don't know it yet.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
It's like people, you get into an
Torre Roberts
argument with somebody on social media, they love you. They just don't know they love you yet.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Put crazy stuff in the comments. Don't get Mad. They love you as a believer. They love you.
Torre Roberts
They just don't know it yet. They need you. They just don't know it yet. And so if you get offended, you missed it. Anyway, that was for free. For free. I will shake all the nations, and they shall come to the desire of nations. So in my shaking, somehow that's going to make them discover and come to what they truly desire. And I will. Here we go.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
And I will fill this temple with
Torre Roberts
glory, says the Lord of hosts. The silver is mine and the gold is mine. These are things that were used to make the temple. So he's saying, I know that you think that you made the temple, but
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
the silver is mine. The gold is thinking about even right now.
Torre Roberts
You can't make silver. You can't make gold.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
All you do is you put it
Torre Roberts
through a process, but it is what it is. And you didn't make it. Man didn't make it. That's why it's so precious, because you can't produce it anyway.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
The silver is mine, the gold is mine.
Torre Roberts
And that's all me, says the Lord of hosts. Watch this. Here's what I'm getting to. I want to point this.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
It says, and the glory of this
Torre Roberts
latter temple shall be greater than the former. Oh, so the Lord of hosts. And in this place I will give peace, says the Lord of hosts. Father, thank you so much for your word. It is a lamp into our feet. It is a light into our path. In the beginning was your word, and your word was with you. And your word was you. There's nothing more powerful force in the earth than your word. And your word will not return to you void. It will accomplish that for which it was sent. And I thank you, God, that this word that flows through me today will accomplish establishing, will accomplish divine nudges that tilt your sons and daughters into divine alignment that will create a flow of grace and impact in their lives unlike ever before. I thank you, God, that the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart will be acceptable in your sight. I thank you, Lord God, for the spirit of wisdom and revelation and insight and knowledge and prophecy and brilliant articulation of the mysteries of God to the effect that your sons and daughters are blessed, built up, edified and enlightened unlike ever before. I thank you, God, that I have decreased, that you might increase and feed your sons and daughters in Jesus name. Amen. Amen.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Please be seated.
Torre Roberts
And just very kindly tell the person next to you to get in position. So we are on the cusp of A ladder glory in our movement. And this latter glory will be greater than any of the former glories of this movement. And we are in that. It's true. It's true.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
And what is interesting is that it
Torre Roberts
is not necessarily about people. It's about purpose and it's about alignment and it's about timing. Yet God uses people throughout this process. And that's a promise in Haggai. And Haggai is not only when you deal with what it's addressing in its current state or in the contemporary state of the text when it was written. We're talking about a second temple being built and that this next wave of the temple, this next construction of the temple, would have a greater glory than the former. But if you study scripture, you'll realize that the temple wasn't really about the temple. It was all about the glory of God. I have amount of time. I got a revelation and I got you. And I'm trying to figure it all out in real time. So, so, so, so, so, so the. The temple was designed well, first of all, we got to go back before the temple was the tabernacle, and the tabernacle was the mobile temple. It was the temple on the go, so to speak. And there were precise instructions on what they needed to do and the validation
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
that they had followed the instructions properly.
Torre Roberts
You got to study this when you get a chance. I'll send you my notes if you want to. The validation, the confirmation that they had aligned everything properly was the reward of God's glory.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
The essence.
Torre Roberts
The essence of God himself is his glory. It's a Hebrew word for glory. It is chabad. It is the weight and the glory and the essence of God that is so thick that when it does what it does, sickness can't even hang out in it.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
It is too brilliant, it is too bright. Evil must scatter. Demons must flee. This is why the scripture says of
Torre Roberts
Jesus he was the express image of God, the express image.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
And that's why when the express image
Torre Roberts
of God came up, sickness had to go.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
He didn't even start talking to demons. Demons start talking to him. Oh, Jesus, have you become the why? Because of the glory, the glory the Bible says the glory of the only begotten of the Father, the glory filled
Torre Roberts
with grace and truth.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
So Jesus was the express image of the glory of God, being the substitute now for Adam, who lost the expressed image and the glory of God. Watch this. And suffered defeat of the enemy. Now Jesus shows up in now the express image of the glory of God and demons now are running away from him. Are you tracking with me? So. So. So the glory, the glory fixes things. And that's why when it's all said and done, and I believe it's Habakkuk, read your whole Bible, you'll find. I think it's Habakkuk 2:14, but it says, and it's speaking prophetically and it says, and all the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea. So the whole. The whole advancing of the kingdom of God is about. Watch this. Us becoming full of glory.
Torre Roberts
Oh, I wish I had all day with you.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Us becoming full of glory and us expressing that glory and that glory. Watch this causes chaos to correct itself. So you are the answer. Stick with me. You are the answer to the chaos that you see. Because the true glory of God literally brings order where there was disorder. So don't get mad at the disorder. Be transformed. We'll talk about that. Be transformed. Come into alignment with God so that your true glory, your hidden glory, can be plainly seen and stuff will start happening in the earth because of your life. Are you tracking with me? I'm going to get into the how in a little bit, but I want to just let me lay that out there. Everything in creation has a hidden glory.
Torre Roberts
Why?
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Why does everything in creation. Why does everything that God created, why does it have hidden glory? It has a hidden glory in it because of the one who created it. God creates out of his essence.
Torre Roberts
Ooh, don't make me.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
He creates out of his essence just like you create out of your essence. And that's why. Think about it. If you were to continue, the reason why you have to Sabbath and you have to stop and take a rest. The reason why God has wired you biologically to have to rest at night is because if you keep creating, you'll die. Because you are in everything you create. Are you tracking with me? Your energy, your life, your breath is in everything that you create. And so if you never stopped, you would expire because you're creating out of you. So let's take.
Torre Roberts
Are we tracking?
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
So let's take that back to God. So God, he is in everything he creates.
Torre Roberts
And I'm getting ahead of myself, but just let me go because I only got a few minutes.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
This is why the whole issue of the universe gets complicated. And the whole issue of the universe gets complicated is because
Torre Roberts
I love to
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
be way more organized than this. But I'm telling you, I'm not going to take two weeks and put it into 20 minutes. People mistake the universe for God for
Torre Roberts
a number of reasons.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
One of the reasons why they mistake the universe for God is because God created the universe, which means that there is his glory and even some of his personality in it. Because he created it, not because he is it. Let's have some fun. So when you start talking about manifesting, the universe manifested this to me. Well, here is the thing. God created the universes from the beginning of time. And watch this. And he also created you before the beginning of time. Biblically, Jeremiah 1. Before I formed you in the belly, I knew you. He's talking about you in past tense. So you are a part of creation. And remember how I told you that God knows? He's already experiencing the thoughts that he has for you. For I know the plans I have for you. I'm experiencing the good plans that I have for you. It's because it's already happened. Because you are a part of that creation. And you have within yourself inherently the glory of God. And the universe itself, or the created thing also has within it the materials and the resources and everything required to fulfill what God knew about you before he put you in your mother's womb. So, so? So. So the quote unquote universe is delivering and producing and manifesting for you. And you're praising the universe for doing it. But the universe is just the mailman. The mailman did not create the check the mailman. Watch. This is part of a system. Come on. Part of a system that has been designed to. To get to you what did not start with usps, but that started with
Torre Roberts
your employer or whoever it was that the gift would come through.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
So I understand why the unenlightened God bless them. I get it. Because the universe did manifest it at God's command, which was established in the very beginning. Track with me. Romans 8:19 helps us understand that. It says for the earnest expectation of creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the children of God. That's deep and layered.
Torre Roberts
I don't have time to unpack it.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
But the reason why we get confused is that essentially. And creation, talking about creation, that's the universe is. And it speaks of the universe as if it. It has a personality. And it does because it literally says so. Here's the paraphrase of that. It's saying that the universe, all creation, is eagerly waiting for the revealing of you. What you, the glorified version of you.
Torre Roberts
Oh, God.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
So because it has personality, we think it's God. Because it produces, we think it's God. And that is no different from the fact that we have personality and we produce, but we ain't God.
Torre Roberts
We're creating his image. Are you tracking with me?
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
So what does this have to do
Torre Roberts
with glory and latter glory? What?
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
I believe the big idea that God wants us to leave with today and
Torre Roberts
we'll unpack it with the amount of time that we have, is it is
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
important for you to get into position, AKA get into alignment.
Torre Roberts
Alignment.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Let's, let's play with that word alignment a little bit. Let's give a definition of alignment.
Torre Roberts
I wish I could do it the way I want to do it.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
I'm going to give you a definition of alignment. Definition of alignment is this. Alignment is when everyone, and consequently everything is lining up as God purpose before the world began.
Torre Roberts
Take a picture of that.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Alignment is when everyone and consequently everything is lining up as God purpose before the world began. And it's interesting how in our text,
Torre Roberts
when it's talking about glory, Let me make the, Let me tie it up.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
When things are in alignment, they manifest glory. The glory of God is contingent upon alignment. Okay, now in the text that we looked at, it's very interesting that this promise of a latter glory, a greater glory, a latter glory being a greater glory, is spoken in the context of a shaking. Of a shaking, all right? And shakings can feel like discomfort. It can feel like an unexpected setback.
Torre Roberts
This is for somebody.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
It can feel like a betrayal. It is a disruption. It is some sort of disruption. And yet in the text, it, it talks about a shaking in the context of getting to a greater glory. And in order to get to a greater glory, we have to come into a more perfect alignment. So the more aligned I am, the more glory I manifest and the more glory I manifest. This is my purpose. I literally, biblically was created for his glory. And the more glory I manifest and I express. Watch this. It pushes back. What's holding back.
Torre Roberts
I wish somebody would catch what I just said.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
There's this passage of scripture where it says the Lord is a sun and shield.
Torre Roberts
Psalm 84, somewhere in there, read your Bible.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
He said, the Lord is a sun and shield. And then he says, watch this. It says, no good thing will he withhold from those who walk uprightly. Look at the language that he uses. He's saying that to not have a good thing manifest in your life is actually a withholding.
Torre Roberts
So withholding.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
So, so, so, so as I come more and more into alignment and consequently begin to manifest the expressed image of God, I was created as image and his life. I Start getting back to my original expression.
Torre Roberts
Expression.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
It pushes back what's holding back. Are you hearing what I'm saying? The enemy, the demons in Jesus's day were holding back people from their potential sons and daughters who were created in the image and the likeness of God. Couldn't walk, couldn't talk, couldn't sleep, were depressed, were oppressed, couldn't function, couldn't do nothing. Watch this. Couldn't express the image of God and be blessed and fruitful as the original intention was. Jesus in the express image of God shows up on the scene and demons start fleeing. But don't just focus on the demons fleeing. You have to also recognize what happened when the demons flee. When the demons flee, the people emerge, merge, free to be.
Torre Roberts
Oh, I feel the Holy Ghost.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
So in other words, the world is supposed to be freer because you move through it. And I cannot do it without alignment. And alignment with oftentimes happens by shaking. Now what is a shaking? Shaking is movement. Shake, shake, shake. You didn't shake. Shake. At least do a little shake. There you go.
Torre Roberts
Thank you.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Guess what you just did when you shook. You move. Come on, big move season.
Torre Roberts
You move.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Look, I live between here and Texas, spend the majority of my time in Texas. And I be forgetting that California is on this thing called the San Andreas Fault. And as a result of that, there is a possibility earthquake. And I ain't gonna lie, I was in the bed early this morning and the bed shook a little bit. I said, uh, oh, I was reminded
Torre Roberts
that I'm in California. Born and raised California. I love Cali. Born and raised. I'm always gonna have a little something here.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Now, being raised on the San Andreas fault, I've been through a lot of earthquakes. And every time an earthquake would come through, watch this, it would shift the ground and the ground would never be the same again. I can remember walking on property. You know what I mean? How'd I tripped over that? Well, because it's no longer the same anymore when the shift happens and it permanently rearranges and it doesn't go back to what it once was. Are you tracking with me? So we're talking about movement. We're talking about movement. And so. So it's not just a readjusting. God is talking about shaking and shifting, not just to readjust, not just to reestablish, but to establish. So he's going to get you and I forgive you. Further and further into alignment, through movement, through shaking. Are we tracking? Stay with me. And so I said alignment because that shaking is trying to get you into alignment. And that alignment is. It's one of those things. I already gave you a definition of it. But alignment is one of those things
Torre Roberts
like, like you know it when you strike it. You.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
You know it when you ever just you.
Torre Roberts
You in a situation, you're like, ooh, I'm in alignment.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Because things feel right. They're flowing right.
Torre Roberts
Things are happening a little bit too effortlessly.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Typically you would have to explain yourself 572 times. But all of a sudden, no, they
Torre Roberts
get it on the first.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
They get it right the first time. And everything is falling. It begins to start falling into place. And you go from struggle to flow. You know what I'm talking about? And not only that, but if you're honest, when you're in that place, Muchas gracias, mi amigo.
Torre Roberts
Muchas gracia.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
And if you're honest, when you're in that place, there is a deep resonance. There's something. Watch this. That feels very right about it. It's beyond easy because you can have easy and not be alignment. But there is something inside that feels very, very right and. And to a certain degree, almost familiar. Like this is what it's supposed to be. You know what I'm saying? That is alignment. And you have to pursue that. I was in a business meeting the other day and I felt that, and that became chi chi. That became my standard. I said, if it doesn't feel like that, I don't want it.
Torre Roberts
Track with me. Track with me. And so
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
alignment, you know when you
Torre Roberts
strike it and you know when you don't. And you have to pursue it.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
And you have to learn how to watch this for the sake of alignment.
Torre Roberts
You. You have to learn how to bend yourself to it.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Because remember, because of the fall, we were all rendered out of alignment. And the whole journey back is to slowly but surely from level to level, or what the scriptures call faith to faith and glory to glory, to get more and more into alignment. And that's what it means by the latter glory being greater than the former former glory because the latter glory should have a few more notches of alignment in it and therefore, and thereby produce a greater level of glory.
Torre Roberts
Are you tracking with me?
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
That's what it's about. It's about getting better at being aligned.
Torre Roberts
Are you tracking?
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
And so it necessitates. You gotta bend. So when you find it, it's a blessing. Now you got to keep it. Now you got to figure out what does it take. So it's almost like, like, like you remember the Santa Monica Pier, they used to have his game in Santa Monica Pier and Santa Monica Pier, they had
Torre Roberts
those little water guns and you squirt and you being your four or five friends, and you squirt the water guns.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
And you had to get it inside the hole. You remember that it was a little tiny old hole, a little thing of water.
Torre Roberts
And you try to get it in there.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
And if you got it in the hole right on target, the thing would
Torre Roberts
go up and it would move and
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
it would stop moving.
Torre Roberts
If you were off target, it would stop moving.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
And the person watch this. And the person who was disciplined enough
Torre Roberts
to keep it in the center feel that.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
The one that was focused and did and didn't get watch this, didn't get distracted when they saw it going up. Because the moment that you look up and look at what's happening, because it's going up, you're not looking at this, and it stops going. And the other person that was focused and stayed into alignment ultimately wins the little ugly teddy bear. That's how alignment is. You got to stay focused. When you find it, you got to realize that you found a treasure. I feel the Holy Ghost. When you find it, you realize that you found the most important thing. And if I stay alignment, I'll keep moving up. I feel that thing. I'll keep moving up the hill of God. And by the time God is finished with me, I will be at the
Congregation Member / Participant
top of the mountain with my stuff,
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
with the impact that God called my life to have.
Congregation Member / Participant
If you want alignment, do me a favor, shout alignment.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
And to talk to you about
Torre Roberts
how
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
to get there, you got to yield. Don't, don't fight the shaking.
Torre Roberts
Some of y' all feel it. God.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
See, God starts shaking stuff when he's trying to get you into alignment. He starts shaking people and things.
Torre Roberts
He's shaking you to get you in
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
position, but you don't, you don't like that because you like.
Torre Roberts
You want everything to stay the same. We like comfort a whole lot.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
We like it more than we think. We swear up and down. Yeah, you gotta get outside your comfort zone. And I say that too, and I'm guilty. But Torre Roberts likes comfort and I like same stuff. I walk into a place, it don't have to be exactly how I like it, but it needs to be close. I'm going to leave it at that.
Torre Roberts
We don't like comfort.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
I mean, we don't like discomfort.
Torre Roberts
We're really into comfort. We're really into things being the way that we like it. So when God comes and he starts shaking.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
It starts shaking the relationship, start shaking
Torre Roberts
the employee,
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Start shaking the industry. We be like, no, don't shake it, Lord. Watch this. And then we try to go back and patch together with duct tape and Krazy Glue. Well, God has given you the gift of causing it to crumble. And we said, don't, don't, don't crumble. And we go get the broom
Torre Roberts
and
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
the pan, the little thing, you know, whatever thing.
Torre Roberts
What are you talking about?
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
The dustpan.
Torre Roberts
Okay. It's been a while.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
I'm sorry. And the dustpan. No, I cleaned up the glass that broke the other day.
Torre Roberts
I know how.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
At the broom and the dustpan. And we put it together and then we pour some glue on it and try to shape it back together. Because we're content with misaligned, cracked, broken, unprofitable comfort than being uncomfortable for a
Torre Roberts
little while for the sake of alignment.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
That will set us up forever. Let it break. Pay attention to what keeps on breaking
Congregation Member / Participant
and you trying to fix it. God in his goodness will start breaking stuff that, that cannot go, that no longer fits.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
The Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit. I, I, I'll sit, I'll get the tape.
Torre Roberts
My notes you have on this.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
The Holy Spirit is the vessel that
Torre Roberts
carries you in and to alignment.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
We must have a relationship with the Holy Spirit. The scripture Sundays in John 16 and 13, which requires a lot of Greeking
Torre Roberts
to really understand what's happening there. A lot of really digging into those words.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
But it says that the Holy Spirit is the spirit of truth and it will lead you into all truth. It doesn't mean simply that it will
Torre Roberts
lead you to truth. It means that it will lead you in truth. That's alignment.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
And that's why the Bible says, do not grieve the Holy Spirit. Because there is only one thing that grieves the Holy Spirit.
Torre Roberts
Untruth.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
So because the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit, it is the spirit of truth that moves you, that guides you. So it is the train of alignment that we must learn to board by saying, not my will, but your will. Okay? So it moves us. It's the train that keeps us on
Torre Roberts
the tracks of alignment that leads us
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
to everything that we have for us. When the Holy Spirit is grieved by something, it is grieved by something, because that is not alignment.
Torre Roberts
So the Bible says, grieve not the Holy Spirit.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
So here's how we grieve the Holy Spirit. We grieve the Holy Spirit. When the Holy Spirit is saying, no, My mind is tipping, I'm sorry. We grieve the Holy Spirit when the Holy Spirit is telling me no,
Congregation Member / Participant
but
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
because I want what I want when I want it so bad that I don't yield. And so. So if I yield, the Spirit is at peace and it flows, but if I don't bend. And you're not all the way here, but it loves you so much that the moment that you start lifting up, it begins to give you a sign of grievance and it starts grieving. And by the time you're over here, it's like, dang, man, talk about the Holy Spirit. And here is why we grieve the Holy Spirit and we will allow ourselves to grieve the Holy Spirit. Here's why. It's because we would rather grieve the Holy Spirit than to grieve ourselves. Something that we have to let go of, that we're not willing and ready to let go of. So you have to come to a point where you make a decision. Either you gonna grieve or the Holy Ghost is gonna grieve. And let me tell you something. It's better that you grieve for a
Congregation Member / Participant
season, for the season sake of not
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
grieving the Holy Spirit, because the Holy
Congregation Member / Participant
Spirit is looking down the road. It's looking at your future. It's looking at your purpose. It's looking at what God has for you. It's looking at the end of the road, and it's grieving because you can't get up that ladder, because you don't have the discipline.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
And here is where the discipline begins. The discipline begins not at the moment
Torre Roberts
of yielding, but at the moment of
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
hearing the truth so that you can yield.
Torre Roberts
Let me tell you something. It takes real discipline to be great in God.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
I'm almost there. So that passage it says, it talks about all of creation eagerly waiting for
Torre Roberts
the revealing of the sons of God, for the manifestation. That word literally means the manifestation. The unveiling. The unveiling.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
As I progressively come into alignment with
Torre Roberts
God, my sonship is unveiled from glory to glory.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
So creation understands the journey that we're on.
Torre Roberts
And you got to keep reading that whole thing. It's amazing.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Creation also understands that it will get
Torre Roberts
delivered when we get delivered.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
So the journey track this, the journey to faith doesn't end the moment you
Torre Roberts
accept Christ and get saved.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
It actually begins because from that moment forward, you go on a journey of perpetual deliverances. And you go on this process. Watch this. Of unbecoming and becoming at the same time. We always talk about becoming, but becoming is automatic. When you unbecome hello, somebody. That's what the shaking is for. The shaking. Hear me clearly. We're done. Three minutes.
Torre Roberts
I wouldn't put my timer on though.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Close to 3 minutes. 4 minutes and 55 seconds. The shaking is not there to remove what's you. The shaking is there to remove what's not you. And you and I don't know what's not us. Because we've been that us for so long. We don't have the insight to rightly differentiate what is actually us versus what's not us. Because we've been not us longer than we've been us. That's why we don't shake ourselves.
Torre Roberts
We won't.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
So God says, in order for me to get you to you, I've got to shake you. But really I'm not shaking you. I'm shaking what's not you. But since what's not you and you are still tangled and intertwined, you get a little dizzy. But when I get finished with you, you're going to be better than you
Congregation Member / Participant
have ever been before. Don't resist the process. Lean into it. Because glory is not a sign to who you are. Not glory is a sign to who you are. And we have come to a time in this city, in this nation, in this world where God's children cannot be out of position. We have got to get in position from glory to glory. Because all of creation is eagerly and desperately waiting for the real you to stand up. I wish I had about a thousand people who will stand up and say I'm tired of not being me.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Last, last thing, Last thing I'm going to say cuz I ain't got time to do it the way I want to do it. Creation, it doesn't say all of creation is eagerly waiting for Christians. It doesn't say all of creation is eagerly waiting for one. Church members, for potter's house members, for whatever members, wherever, however you flow, whatever you do. It does not say that it is in different to where you worship. It is all about your becoming. It says all of creation is eagerly waiting for the revealing of the sons. Who are the sons. Has nothing to do with sex. This is spiritual, it's higher. Has nothing to do with gender. The scripture says later we're going to be like angels. We won't even have sexes in the heavenly realm. That's for here. Who are Those sons? Romans 8:14.
Torre Roberts
Those who are led by the spirit of God.
These
are the sons. Oh, oh, I can't do it. I wish I had more time. Here's what I want to do. Here's what I want to do. I want to invite you into a closer relationship to the Holy Spirit.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
I want to invite you to embrace the shaking. I want to invite you to embrace the Holy Spirit in the shaking.
Torre Roberts
Because the shaking is only there to remove what is shakable.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Some stuff is leaving your life because it's shakable.
Torre Roberts
Let it go.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
God loves you so much that he'll just shake it off for you. And don't go back trying to patch together well God. Because the only thing that can be shaken is that which is inauthentic. So because we don't necessarily have the ability to know what is ingenuine or inauthentic or unternal, then he shakes us
Torre Roberts
to show us what is.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
All of creation is waiting for the real you. It has things that God has embedded
Torre Roberts
in it that is assigned to be
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
the building materials for your life and your future and the ultimate manifestation of
Torre Roberts
everything that God promised. It's settled. God's not going to do anything.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
He's already put it in the program in the system of creation. But creation will not respond to a fake you creation. No. That's why it says all of creation is eagerly waiting for for the revealing the manifestation of the sons. Not who you think you are, who God knows you are. And when you show up in your sunset sonship because you are mastering and practicing alignment the universe, the thing that God created is going to scan you like a biometric and say, oh, that's the person. Or if you have contacts on. Come on. They say that's not the per. Take off those.
Congregation Member / Participant
Lay it on.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Behold who I created you to be.
Congregation Member / Participant
Because I will scan you and open the door for you. The door to everything that God has promised you. Are you hearing the words that are
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
coming out of my mouth?
Congregation Member / Participant
The real you can't command a thing. Are you hearing me? Open says a me. The real me, not the fake me.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
So here's what I want to do.
Torre Roberts
I want to pray.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
I am out of time. I want to extend an invitation.
Torre Roberts
I want to extend an invitation. Do I need to tell the live stream people goodbye? No. Okay. Hi live stream people. Here's what I want to do. It's so important, man. As I mentioned, when I started this moment together with you,
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
I felt a question that you didn't know how to ask.
Torre Roberts
There comes kairos. Kairos, Kairos. Here's the thing about a kairos moment. You don't get to plan it.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
You don't get to plan It God has ordered and established times and seasons.
Torre Roberts
How do I know?
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Because in Hebrews, in one place, in Hebrews, I think it's Hebrews 5 or 6. Read your whole Bible, you'll find it. But it says at the time that
Torre Roberts
you ought to be teachers, you need to be taught.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
So it's not about our timeline, it is about God's. That text is essentially saying that there is a moment when God has an expectation of who you are showing up as. And if you are nearing it and you're not there, then there is. Watch this. Deep in your soul, soul, there is a resonance that you cannot fully articulate or understand. You know you need something, but you don't know what you need. That's deep calling to deep. And I was going to let worship go on because I love worship and I love what was happening.
Torre Roberts
But I said no.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
But I heard your cry.
Torre Roberts
The cry of your soul. It was too loud for instruction.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
And that's why when I spoke it
Torre Roberts
out, get in position. It resonated something.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Power, quickening your spirit. Because deep calls into deep.
Torre Roberts
Everything that you will be is in you.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
99% of the walk of God is getting out what God has already put
Torre Roberts
in you,
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
recognizing it, activating it, and pulling it forward. I want to pray in particular for those
Torre Roberts
who have a distant relationship with the Holy Spirit.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Tomorrow night we're going to be installing
Torre Roberts
Dr. Nita and laying hands on a few others in a house that was begun by a woman. A movement that was begun, started by a woman named Amy Simba Fearson, who by all societal measures at the time, was completely disqualified from being a divorcee to. I mean, she was anointed. But there was a lot of trickiness in her reality. By all. Not trickiness like she was a tricky person. I'm just talking about just bizarre things surrounding her. But that had nothing to do with the impact because in the midst of all of that, she had a relationship, a prolific relationship with the Holy Spirit. A prolific relationship with the Holy Spirit. And this is in the 20s, a building, and there's still a movement. The four square denomination was started by her. And there's a building that's still standing that will be in tomorrow night. Decades later, almost two decades, a century later now, because of her relationship with the Holy Spirit, she was able to accomplish great exploits with her. Her knife, with her life.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
I want to pray for some people,
Torre Roberts
and I want you to meet me here at this altar. And you have a distant relationship with the Holy Spirit and you want to grow sharper in your relationship with the Holy Spirit. I want you to meet me at this altar. I want to pray for you really quickly. I only got two minutes. Come on. Just come. We can pray.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
The second point. The second point is if you're here
Torre Roberts
and you have been close to Jesus, close, but you haven't opened up your heart to Jesus, you've been on the fence, here's what it looks like for you. You've really been touched, like, spiritually, like, you can't even deny it.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
And quite frankly, you have.
Torre Roberts
A lot of you would call yourself spiritual, but not religious. And I can appreciate that. That phraseology, I can. But if you're honest, you've been. Man, this is you.
You're here.
You're under the sound of my voice. And I just want to. I want to. I want to read your insights to you so that you'll know that God has spoken to me about you.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Like, when you come here, and it's
Torre Roberts
not just here, it's even in other places or other moments. You've been in stores, you've read books, something, and you just keep. It keeps coming back to Jesus. And previous to this moment that you're standing in, you've been trying to keep Jesus and the teachings of Jesus on the same level as some of the other things that you've been exposed to in your spiritual walk and journey. But Jesus keeps standing out. And you try to, like, push it down. But if you're honest, Jesus, he keeps. Every time you try to put him in the same category, he breaks out again. And you're like, dang.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Because it messes with your. Your theology.
Torre Roberts
You're actually religious about not being religious. You'll pick that up on the brand 20, 20 minutes.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
You've actually become religious in your pursuit of not being religious. And anything that seems to stand out and rise to the top in your mind is religion. And you try to force it back
Torre Roberts
down there with everything else that you're dealing with. But if you're honest, you cannot deny that there is a deeper resonance and continuity of spiritual grace, impact, and honestly, transformation in your life that's connected to Jesus himself. You are here in this room, and God says, we've dated long enough. I need you to put the others away. I know that they've served you, but let's be honest, ain't nobody putting it down like me.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
And I need you.
Torre Roberts
And I.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
And. And I need you. I've proven myself, I've confirmed it, and I need you to be in position.
Torre Roberts
Come here. If that's you come here in particular.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Just get. Get as close to the stage. Come here, Come here, Come here, Come here. Come here, Come here, Come here. I see you. Come here.
Torre Roberts
Come here, daughter. Come on.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Come here, Come here, Come here. Come here.
Torre Roberts
Come on.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Get as close. Come here, come here. Come here, Come here. Come here.
Torre Roberts
I see you.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
More importantly, he sees you. Come here, Come here, Come here, Come here, Come here, Come here. It's okay. It's okay. It's okay. Says, I see you. I get it. I get it. I hear the Lord saying, you can trust me. That's the Lord. You can trust me. And guess what? And what I'm gonna give you is the Holy Spirit, the spirit of truth. And I will never lead you into deception. I will never lead you in a lie. I got you. You'll be able to smell a rat a mile away. You'll be able to smell deceit a mile away. Why? Because for whatever reason, we're in a kairos moment.
Torre Roberts
And it is time for all of
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
us to get in position. Some of you are called, but you've been talking yourself out of what God's been trying to talk you into for a long time. It is time for you to step fully in your calling. Because we need the unique gift and the unique grace that's on your life. Are you hearing the words that are coming out of my mouth? And we're going to create space for that. Let's pray. Father, we love you so much. And really, we're just loving you back. And really, we're just loving you back. We love you because you first loved us. Now, God, I thank you for all these, your sons and daughters that you first of all ordered their steps to be here in this moment, in this
Torre Roberts
kairos moment on 222.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Because you said, I haven't forgotten about you.
Torre Roberts
And I surely haven't given up on you.
Guest Speaker / Teaching Minister
Hallelujah. And God, I thank you for what you're doing. I want you to repeat after me. Heavenly Father, I thank you for your love. I receive it. Heavenly Father, I thank you for your word. I receive it. I thank you for Jesus, I receive him. Thank you for making him who had no sin, all of mine, all of my weakness, all of my mistakes, all about my misalignment, all of my shortcomings, all of my brokenness. You put it in his body, nailed it to the cross and put it to death. And God, just as you raised him up, because I'm in him, I'm raised up too. Free and victorious. Now, Holy Spirit, Spirit of truth, my guide, my anchor, my alignment. I receive you, not my will, but your will be done. In my life I yield to you. I'm yours. Have your way. From this day forward, I will listen to your prompts, to your nudges, loud or subtle. I will incline my ear to your whispers, to your testimonies. And I will be blessed as I walk in a way that doesn't grieve you. Lord, I'm willing to grieve in order to not grieve you. I'm willing to weep for a night in order to have joy in the morning. This is a new day, a new moment, a kairos moment. And I'm getting in position and I won't look back. I'm pursuing alignment. In Jesus name, Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Hey family.
Torre Roberts
Well, I pray that you were just as blessed by this teaching as I was. I'm just so grateful again to be a part of a dynamic community full of love, full of revelation and wisdom.

ONE | A Potter’s House Church
Date: February 23, 2026
In this powerful sermon episode, Pastor Touré Roberts explores the prophetic message: “Get in Position,” focusing on spiritual alignment, the significance of timely divine moments (kairos), and the process God uses to shift us into alignment with our unique calling. Drawing from Haggai 2 and Romans 8, Pastor Touré calls the congregation to embrace discomfort and the ‘shaking’ in their lives—not as punishment, but as God’s method to move them into authentic alignment and greater glory.
Haggai 2:6-9:
Quote:
Definition:
Manifestation of Glory:
Quote:
Glory as Solution:
Clarifying God vs. the Universe:
Creation Awaits Authentic Sons (Romans 8:19):
Shaking Introduced:
Quote:
The Holy Spirit is our guide and the “train” of alignment.
“The Holy Spirit is the vessel that carries you in and to alignment.” (35:23)
To stay aligned, don’t grieve the Holy Spirit—which happens when we resist its truth and nudges.
Quote:
On Divine Timing:
On God’s Promises in Shaking:
On the Real Objective:
On Our Role:
On Creation’s Expectation:
On Alignment and Glory:
On Embracing Discomfort:
On the Holy Spirit:
On Shaking:
On Authenticity Unlocking Destiny:
On Commitment:
“All of creation is eagerly and desperately waiting for the real you to stand up.” (42:02)
For those seeking spiritual breakthrough, clarity of calling, or deeper connection with God, this message is a timely rallying cry to surrender, align, and move boldly into your next season.
