Date: March 1, 2026
Host: The Potter’s House
Speaker: Pastor Touré Roberts

Episode Overview

This episode, led by Pastor Touré Roberts, is a prophetic and practical call to "Get In Position." Drawing deeply from the book of Haggai, Romans, and Hebrews, Pastor Touré unpacks the necessity and urgency of divine alignment in this season. He weaves in spiritual discipline, clarity, spiritual authority, economic empowerment, and societal impact—challenging every listener to recognize the purpose in life's shakings and to answer the call to spiritual alignment and purpose.

Main Themes

• The necessity of alignment with God’s timing and pattern
• The difference between chronological time (chronos) and divine/apportioned time (kairos)
• Why God “shakes” our lives and how to interpret spiritual shakings
• The connection between alignment and the manifestation of God’s glory
• Intentionally pursuing spiritual clarity in times of distraction
• The transformational role of the Holy Spirit in leading us to—and through—alignment
• Practical outworking of alignment in spiritual, economic, and societal spheres

---

Key Discussion Points and Insights

1. Introduction: Context and Call to Clarity

• Pastor Touré opens by referencing Haggai 2 (03:12), connecting the rebuilding of the temple with a season of mixed emotions—celebration and lamentation.
• He introduces a 30-day “clarity challenge” (sugar fast), aligning with Lent, emphasizing that physical discipline ties to spiritual clarity.
  Quote:

"For 30 days starting today, those who are in agreement, we’re giving up processed sugar...right now we need to be clearer than we've ever been. Hello, somebody." (03:50)

2. Foundation: God's Timing and Alignment

• Explains “chronos” (chronological time) vs. “kairos” (divinely appointed time) and their relevance to spiritual seasons.
  Quote:

"Chronos is...where we get our English word chronological...kairos is more about an appointed time, a set time...God holds times and seasons in his hands." (11:14)

• Emphasizes God’s expectation for us to be in position for our kairos moment, not living in the “good old days” but expecting greater future glory. Quote:

"To long for yesterday is to violate this word, because this word says that the glory of the latter is going to be greater than the glory of the former." (16:26)

3. Shaking as God's Administrator for Glory

• Shaking is presented as both necessary and purposeful; it catalyzes movement into deeper alignment and glory. Quote:

"Glory requires shaking. Successive levels of glory require shaking. That the shaking is the administrator of glory." (18:09–18:35)

• Drawing parallels from Moses’ tabernacle, the pattern and alignment must be followed for God’s glory to fill. Quote:

"Glory is not attracted to misalignment...Glory does not respond to misalignment. Glory is very specific." (21:11)

• Examples from Adam’s misalignment and Moses receiving the pattern for the tabernacle.

4. Practical Alignment and Clarity

• Discusses how distractions and confusion cloud our spiritual alignment.
• Encourages listeners to become radical in their pursuit of clarity and alignment, even if it means giving up small comforts like sugar.
  Quote:

"I will do everything that is available to me to be clearer than I've ever been. I don't want nothing manipulating me, not even sugar." (30:08)

• Outlines what alignment is: Quote:

"Alignment is when everyone, and consequently everything is lining up as God purposed before the world began." (28:00)

• The difference between toil and flow:
  Quote:

"When you're in alignment with God, there's a flow that comes to you and stuff that was about toil flows like oil." (31:48–31:51)

• Creation is portrayed as eagerly awaiting our alignment (“the revealing of the sons of God”—Romans 8:19), and as cooperating with us when we are aligned.

5. The Role of the Holy Spirit in Alignment

• Declares the absolute necessity of relationship with the Holy Spirit for alignment and discernment.
  Quote:

"For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are the sons of God...we are going to have to have an extremely intentional relationship with the Holy Spirit unlike ever before." (39:15)

• The process of being shaken is highlighted as a communication from God, not merely the devil's work.
  Quote:

"God speaks through shaking. And we blame the devil for the shaking. Even if it was the devil, God used him. Because even the devil is God's devil." (41:56)

• Challenges listeners not to grieve the Holy Spirit by clinging to things God is shaking off (56:54).

6. Accepting the Shaking and Entering New Dimensions

• Urges maturity in accepting shakings—recognizing God is removing what isn’t truly us.
  Quote:

“The only thing that shakes when God shakes you is what ain't you.” (47:40)

• The move from mere church identity to true kingdom authority is emphasized.
• Warns against resisting the necessary pain of change; encourages trust in the “Shaker.”
  Quote:

"Trust the shaker. Here's the word of the Lord. For you shall come forth as gold." (74:20)

7. Practical Areas to “Get in Position”

• Pastor Touré highlights three domains where alignment should manifest (60:09):
  1. Spiritual Authority: Not just being loud, but effective spiritually
  2. Economic Empowerment: Godly stewardship and financial increase for kingdom purposes
  3. Societal Impact: Engaging in public life, mentorship, and leadership

Quote:

“It is time for you to take your place in three areas specifically. The first is in spiritual authority. The second is in economic empowerment. And the third is in societal impact.” (60:09)

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On God’s Process:

  “If you’re not shaking in some area right now in your life, I’m a little suspect of your anointing...Those he loves, he chastens. Because I gotta shake you to get you into position.” (23:02)

• On Alignment:

  “You got to pursue it. You got to pursue it. You got to learn how to recognize it, man. There ain’t nothing like knowing that you’re in alignment with God and you don’t have to guess it.” (31:12)

• On the Holy Spirit’s Role:

  “He is the difference maker, and he will lead us. Watch this. In truth and to truth.” (53:09)

• On Consequences of Misalignment:

  “Sometimes we would rather have the Holy Spirit grieve than us grieve what we need to let go of in order to be in alignment.” (55:54)

• On Endurance:

  "For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that shall be revealed in us." (73:43)

• On Trusting God’s Process:

  “When the glory shows up, you will realize that it was worth it. So much so...if you had to go through it again, you would do so because of what you’ve seen on the other side.” (74:20)

Conclusion & Final Prayers

• He closes with a communal prayer, affirmations, and a strong reassurance of God’s steadfast love and guidance:

  “I give you the strength to walk it out. And when I stumble, You will catch me...This is a new day. I'm chosen, I'm called and I'm on my way to amazing things for your glory.” (81:35–84:38)

---

Episode Takeaway

“Get In Position” is more than a sermon title—it is a divine marching order. Pastor Touré’s message is clear, urgent, and empowering: every shaking, every trial, is a loving invitation from God to deeper alignment, clarity, and impact. By yielding to the Holy Spirit and stepping into our true identity, we make ourselves available for greater glory—personally and collectively as God’s people.

For Further Engagement:

• Join the clarity challenge

and life changing truth. Let's go,

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Hagai. Chapter two. Today is March 1st. Many of you may know. That was a mixed sound like when they were rebuilding the temple. Some were rejoicing because of what was going to be. Others were groaning because of the O. There was a mixed sound for 30 days starting today. Those who are in agreement were giving up processed sugar. Giving up process. Those who are in agreement, I will say this. If you are not in agreement, this is not necessarily a fast. If you don't know the history, I don't want to take up too much time to unpack it. You can click the QR code, but essentially I know that ultimately, we all know that ultimately processed sugar is not good for us. Hello, somebody? It's not good for us. And, and you can trace some of our sicknesses and disease from diabetes to high blood pressure and all that sort of stuff. You can trace it back to processed sugar. It is what it is. I'm not judging you or trying to convict you. It just is. So I went on a search. I just did it, just a little research and said, hey, if I gave up processed sugar for all of 2026, what would happen? And of course all the health benefits came up. And that was all wonderful. But there was something that popped out at me that I didn't expect. And it was, you will have better mental clarity during a time when God has me speaking about clarity. And so I said, okay, God, I. And there were some other confirmations. And so we're going on that journey. Even if you decided you don't want to do it like that, I think that right now we need to be clearer than we've ever been. Hello, somebody. And so join us in some sort of way for the month of March. I encourage you to try this clarity Challenge. We're gonna. This will be powerful. We're gonna have a guide. We're gonna track the progress. There's a guide for that. There will be a substack on substack, an article I've written every single day to come through it. I think we're gonna be clear. But again, if you don't wanna go that route just at least. And it's almost in alignment somewhat with Lent anyway leading up to Easter. So let's really, really do everything we can to be clear. And I'll Tell you right now, I'm not going to be eating no processed sugar. And if you decided you don't want to go that route, just know I'm going to be clearer than you. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. All right. Be clearer than you. Haggai Chapter 2 I started this conversation in in LA last week and and God says I'm still saying it. And and he's given it to me in a way that will be different, but very much for us. Haggai chapter 26 and 94269 for thus says the Lord of hosts, once more it is a little while. I will shake heaven and earth, the sea and dry land, and I will shake all nations and they shall come to the desire of all nations. That's so powerful. I will shake all nations and they shall come to the desire of all nations really quickly. That is the Lord saying, even if they do not know what they desire, I'm it. Even if they do not know what they hunger and thirst for is me. Oh, I cannot wait to get into this. It says, I will shake all nations. I will shake all nations. And then it says, and they will come to the desire of all nations. I'm so tempted to just do it right here and now. And I will fill this temple. Glory, says the Lord of Hosts. The silver is mine and the gold is mine, says the Lord of hosts. Right here. Though the glory of this latter temple shall be greater than the former,

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

says

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

the Lord of hosts. And in this place I will give peace, says the Lord of hosts. Lord, we love you so much. May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight. God, I thank you for wisdom, revelation, insight, knowledge, prophecy and all of heaven's resources to help to communicate this word in a way, God that will be prophetic and divinely prolific to the effect that there would be a stirring in the hearts and the minds of your sons and daughters that the gift of God would be stirred up and that there would be an activation that would bring about an alignment that will produce glory in their lives, through their lives and throughout all the earth as a result. We love you and thank you in Jesus name, Amen. Amen. Please be seated. Say something kind to someone around you as you're being seated. Hallelujah. I want to take this moment to honor our Bishop, my father, my friend, our champion, our king, builder, coverer, protector, guider, wisdom, giver, strength will fight off lions and bears for those he loves. We love you and honor you sir. And of course our forever first lady, our Mother, our intercessor, our prayer warrior, our strength, our model, our example. We love you both so very, very much. And with each passing day, we appreciate you all the more. Hallelujah. I want to talk from this conversation theme, if you would. And it's a prophetic declaration. And my belief is that when you hear these three words, it will resonate in your spirit in a way that bypasses your intellect but will hit you deep down in a spiritual place. And these words are not just a title or theme. They are a divine command and an instruction, whereby if you align with this command and instruction, something is going to be unleashed in and through your life unlike ever before. And the three words that are a proclamation and a declaration are these three words. Get in position. Get in position. There are a couple of words that were translated time in Scripture, in the Greek in particular, two words. Chronos is one of the words and the other one is kairos. And they are distinct primarily in this. Chronos is where we get our English word chronological or, you know, and so it really has to do with time. And you know, that sort of time where kairos is more about an appointed time, a set time. And you'll see that word used like in Galatians 4 and 4. It talks about when the fullness of time had come. And so we've got time like, you know, it is now 9:30. Somewhere. It is 9:30. And so you have chronological time and then you have the process and the process of time or a divine time. It's almost like God's calendar. When the scripture talks about how the vision is for an appointed time, that's dealing with kairos. And here's why that is significant to where we're going today. It means that God has a timing element that sometimes we don't understand or know. I gotta say this, right? So it's like Jesus was the lamb slain before the foundation of the world, and yet there was a moment in time for that reality to come forth. So kairos is about a moment in time, a predestined and pre appointed moment in time where. Where things are supposed to be what God predestined for them to look like. So in other words, God holds times and seasons in his hands and he has an expectation of what he creates to look like a certain thing at a certain time. That's why it can say at the time you ought to be teachers. It's Hebrews 5, at the time you ought to be teachers, you need to be taught. So, so in God's kairos. He has an expectation based on what he created, because he created us with kairos assigned to us. Play with me. So in a particular moment, and not just us, all of creation, times and seasons. So there are things that shock us but do not shock God. In fact, there's nothing that shocks God because God declares the end from the beginning. And the fact that we are shocked corroborates the fact that his thoughts are not our thoughts and his ways are not our ways. So we get shocked.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Oh, my God.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

And God is never oh, my God. He's God. Are you tracking with me? The reason why this is important is because it speaks to the fact that we need to be always seeking to be aligned with God's timing. Track with me today. So let me just say this. Right now,

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

the latter glory will be

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

greater than the former glory. And in context, he's talking about a ladder temple. We know a temple was destroyed and rebuilt. He's talking about that in context, but in prophecy, he's talking way beyond the temple. Jesus described himself as the temple. Tear this temple down and three days, I'll build it up again. So the temple, as we know, Bishop taught about it wonderfully for years and still does. The temple was actually pointing to Jesus. So when we start talking about latter glory, we're not just talking about the glory of a temple. We're talking about ultimately the glory of Christ. Then his body. The body of Christ represents the temple, if you study it.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

And then later on it says, we

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

are the temple of the Holy Spirit. So this latter glory, which will be greater than the former glory, really ultimately

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

comes down to us, who we will be.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Track with me. I promise it'll make sense. And so the reality or the term the good old days, although I can appreciate the sentiment, is inaccurate. To long for yesterday is to violate

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

this word, because this word says that the glory of the latter is going to be greater than the glory of the former. And the Bible says that we go from glory

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

to glory. Come on, somebody. And I get it. Good old days.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

There are a lot of things that I like and a lot of things that I wish, you know, you know, but, but, but in God's wisdom, he's

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

saying that the best is still yet to come. Are we tracking? And so this is a posture. Just Turn to your neighbor and say, the ladder will be greater. Now. Now, that was the good news. Here is the challenging news. And it's right there in the text. The text talks about glory in the backdrop of shaking.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Come on, let's look at it. Let's look at it real quick.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Track with me.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Can we have a little fun while

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

we telling the truth today?

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

It says, for thus saith the Lord of hosts. Once more he starts off.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

He gets the glory, but he starts with shaking. I will shake heaven and earth, the

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

sea and dry land, and I will shake all nations, and they shall come to the desire of all nations. And I will fill this temple with glory. And then he goes on by saying that the latter glory is going to

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

be greater than the former glory. Don't overlook what's being spoken. He is saying that glory requires shaking. Successive levels of glory require shaking.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Meaning.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Watch this. That the shaking is the administrator of glory. Oh, you gonna get it today. Shaking is the administrator of glory.

[Podcast Host / Advertiser]

Why?

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Why? Why? Why? Because glory requires alignment. Glory requires divine alignment. That's why. It says in First Corinthians 3 and 18, it talks about how we, as

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

we behold the Lord as in a

[Advertiser / Sponsor Voice]

mirror,

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

we're being transformed into that image. Transformation is movement. Come on.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

We're being transformed into that image.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

As we behold the Lord as in a mirror, we're being transformed into that image. We're changing.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

And it says, from glory to glory.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

So as we change, glory follows. Oh, you're gonna get it. I'm just laying the foundation and get it. And we see that glory follows a pattern. When Moses goes on top of the mountain and spends time in the presence

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

of God, God does not tell him, go down there and build.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Whatever you feel,

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

he reveals to him

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

a pattern, a blueprint, what it's going to take in order to fill the tabernacle with glory. This is not what you think. This is not how you feel.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

This is not about what you think

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

you have or what you think you can do.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

This Moses has to be like this.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

He comes back down from the mountain with a pattern, with a design. And when he implements the pattern and the design, what shows up as a result?

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Glory.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Track with me.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

So, glory.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Watch.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

This is not attracted to misalignment.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Oh, you're gonna get today. Just stay with me.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Glory does not.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Does not respond to misalignment. Glory is very specific. You know the story when they were

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

bringing the Ark back to Jerusalem? Come on, Bible people. You know this story. It seemed like a small thing. I believe it was Uzzah who was mishandling the carts. It seemed like a small thing, and he died.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Why?

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Because God is committed to glory. It has to be the way he says. And sometimes to get it away from what you think and into what he

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

knows requires a shaking. And we don't like it, pero we need it. We need it because. Because we are seeing through a glass darkly. The Bible, right?

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

We're not seeing as clearly. It gets clearer as we go, but we're not seeing clearly. So we are watch this. Content to be here when the glory is going to fall there. And so because the Lord loves you, he will shake you to get you into the place of alignment where the glory can be manifest.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Are you tracking with me this morning? And this is why the shaking, which is about movement, which is that which

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

moves us into position, is sometimes the greatest thing that can ever happen to you. Because you and I are content in staying where we are comfortable, staying where we know everything, staying in these places. And God is saying, I hear you, but there's a lot of glory and I got to shake you to push you into where I need you to be. Show me anybody in the Bible that didn't have to move to get into alignment and to experience glory from Abraham all the way on down. The shaking. If you ain't shaking in some area right now in your life, I'm a little suspect of your anointing. I'm a little suspect if something ain't shaking somewhere, Those he loves, he chastens. Because I gotta shake him to get you into position. Because we are in a kairos moment. This is not a time for us to be playing and out of order. We've got to be in position. Adam, where are you? Adam?

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Adam. Adam, where art thou? Here's what's crazy. What is God asking him? Because he is in the garden. He didn't leave the garden. So it's not about physicality. It's not about physicality, about perspective and a lot. You moved, Adam. You moved. Watch this. You move. You're covering yourself, Your perspective, your paradigm, how you move, how you think, how you function. Watch this. You. You are no longer sensitive to my voice. Where are you? I can't. I can't find you. And what is worse is you can't find me. You're covering yourself. Watch this. When my glory was your covering, when you were in position. I'm talking about the connection between alignment being in position and glory. God has always required pattern before glory. That's why Jesus said, not my will, but your will. Because your will is connected to the pattern that I am ignorant to. So I trust, hear me, I trust the shaking and where the shaking leads me. Because you know what, Where I'm supposed to be, how I'm supposed to think and be and move. And I trust you. This was the sentiment of Job, though you slay me because somehow that slaying of me is in the will of God. It is the prescription for my alignment. Stay with me. Stay with me. And so let me give a definition for alignment. Alignment is when everyone, and consequently everything is lining up as God purpose before the world began. Let me give you a definition of alignment. Oh, there it is. You can screenshot it. Alignment is when everyone watch this. And consequently everything. What do you mean by that? PT what do you mean everyone? When you are in alignment, what you produce is aligned.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

See, God doesn't want us to just

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

be in alignment for the sake of alignment. He wants us to be in alignment so that we can be fruitful as and multiply and produce from that place of alignment. Are you hearing me? So what you do when you are out of position is different from what you do when you're in position. We tracking. So it's when everyone and everything is lining up as God purposed before the world began. And so. And so you have to pursue it. Why do you think that I am pursuing clarity by any means necessary in this season? It ain't about a book. It is about the backdrop of the world right now. And what the backdrop is speaking to me. The backdrop is speaking to me that we're getting close. Hello, somebody. And I don't want to be distracted, confused, misaligned in my feelings and my emotions being manipulated by this source and that source.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

I need clarity.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Are you hearing me? When we have.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

I talk about all the time when

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

we have so many things pointed at us, trying to get us to think one way or the other.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

And the arguments get more compelling and seductive by the day.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

There is a strategy to have you confused and pulled in one direction or

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

pulled in another direction. You're mad one day and happy the next day. You align with this one day and misalign. No, listen. I need clarity. I need the voice of God to steer me through this season. I'm not playing no games. If I gotta give up sugar, so be it. I will do everything that is available

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

to me to be clearer than I've ever been. I don't want nothing manipulating me, not even sugar.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

You've got to be hungry and thirsty

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

and desperate for clarity in these times.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Bible says, those who know their God shall be strong and carry out exploits. I need to know my God. I will fast. I will pray. I will read my word. I will seek his faith. I'm going to be be clear in this Season.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

I'm going be clear. You're not going to be playing games

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

with my emotions and playing games of my head and playing games with my decisions. The devil is a liar. Did God send you? And the only way I'm going know whether or not God sent you is

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

if I have an intimate relationship with.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

With the voice of the Lord.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

And I'll do whatever it takes to get there. Are you tracking with me today? You've got to pursue alignment. You got to pursue it. You got to pursue it. You got to learn how to recognize it, man. There ain't nothing like knowing that you're in alignment with God and you don't have to guess it. There's a sensing when you are, and you know there's a sensing when you ain't. When you're in alignment with God, there's a flow that comes to you and stuff.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Watch this. That was about toil. Flows like oil.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Are you hearing the words that are coming out of my mouth?

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

It gets oily.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

You're like, wow, this was hard.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

But I just speak it and it open and it opens up and you don't even have to explain yourself. Stuff just starts moving towards you and. And it just feels like all of

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

creation is cooperating with you. Can we talk for a minute? It feels like all of creation is working with you. And you're like, God's up to something. Because everywhere I turn, there's a flow. See, that's the Bible, because Romans 8:19, one of my favorite passages in the scripture, says for the earnest expectation of creation. Watch this. Is eagerly waiting for the revealing of of sons. Watch this. Notice it didn't say Christians. You can be a Christian and not a son, Because a Christian is just a title that we gave ourselves. And the intention is good. But sometimes the expression isn't you tracking with me. So the Bible says that the earnest expectation of the creation. Watch this. The creation. What is the creation? The creation is everything that God made. Some people with good intentions misdefine the universe as God. The universe is the creation. It was created by God. And it gets a little tricky because in that context, the universe, the creation, has personality. It is eagerly in expectation. So it has personality. And here's where it gets deep. And I pray you know you'll track with me. Here's where it gets deep is when you are in alignment with God begins to funnel things to you through creation. So you start thanking creation. Oh, God, I thank the universe for this, and I thank the universe for that.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

And I know how you got There,

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

you're just a little ignorant.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Because creation, come on, somebody is just the mail delivery service. The mail came from God, and he used creation to get it to you. And you praising the vehicle, that's like me thanking the mailman for my check. I thank you for bringing it. I mean, not really, because if you didn't bring it, somebody else would bring it. Because God was gonna make sure that what he had for me got to me.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Are we tracking and when you are in alignment, when you are in alignment, creation starts cooperating. But creation will not cooperate with a false you because creation recognizes truth.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

It's almost like we used to say in the neighborhood, game recognizes game.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

So all of creation, the earnest expectation of creation. That means that creation is leaning in expectation toward the revealing of you,

[Podcast Host / Advertiser]

the

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

real you, the you that is in alignment. We together. And so. So Michael stuff all of a sudden starts falling into place. Stuff that was been hard for 10 years, 5 years, 10 months, 20 years, 30 years.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

All of a sudden you get into

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

alignment, and he begins to restore the years that the locusts have eaten.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Stuff that you thought was lost all of a sudden begins to come back into alignment.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

And.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

And you were blessed just as if you were in position the whole time.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

That's why we can't cast away our confidence. Watch this. That's Hebrews 10:35. It says, cast not therefore away your confidence in the Greek expectation. Literally, it says, wherein in that expectation there is great reward. Watch this. It says you are in need of patience. That. Watch this. After you have done the will of God, that's alignment. You're in need of patience through the shaking. You are in need of patience through the discomfort.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

You are in need of patience through the process that I take you through, because all I got to do is get you in position. And once I get you into position, everything I promise concerning your life is going to show up. If you believe that, give God about

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

seven seconds of worship.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

I got to get in position. I got to get into alignment. I got to get into my spot. I've got to take my place.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

All of creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God. This means that sons must be revealed. And don't get caught up on the terminology and the gender, because this is way above gender. This is spiritual, heavenly kingdom language. The scripture doesn't make any reference at all that there'll be male and female in heaven. The Bible says we'll be like angels. So don't even get caught there when I'm talking about sonship. I'm talking about position of authority. And notice, he says that the scriptures say that the sons have to be revealed, have to be manifest. It speaks to a process. So creation is leaning in, waiting for you to become you from glory to glory through your willing to be aligned with God. But let's go further. It says all the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God. Well then, who are the sons of God? Well, let me make it practical and real for you.

[Podcast Host / Advertiser]

Earlier.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

He tells you in Romans 8:14, he says, for as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are the sons of God. This is important. This is important. In this season, we are going to have to have an extremely intentional relationship with the Holy Spirit unlike ever before, because the Holy Spirit leads us. Watch this. Both in alignment and to alignment.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

How do I get.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Because that's a legitimate question.

[Podcast Host / Advertiser]

Pt.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

You're talking about alignment. How do I get into alignment? How do I know if I'm in alignment? Well, I'm glad you asked the question. It's not your job, it's the Holy Ghost job. So I have to watch this. So I have to learn to yield to the Holy Spirit. And you have to. And you do have to yield to the Holy Spirit. Over in Hebrews chapter 12 where the writer is talking about. He's referencing the Haggai scripture. What he talks about. He talks about how everything that. Let me just paraphrase. Everything that can be shaken will be shaken so that that which cannot be shaken will remain. And it talks about how we're receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken. And I'll talk about that maybe in, in a minute. But what's taking place, what's taking place is the Spirit. Before it talks about everything that can be shaken will be shaken. It talks about, it says, see? Not that you refuse him who speaks. That's very, very powerful in that the Hebrews version of the prophecy about shaking, he says in the context of shaking, it says, see that you refuse him who speaks. Meaning that the shaking is God speaking. Oh, I'm a teach today. You better catch it. Misha, hear me. God speaks through shaking. And we blame the devil for the shaking. Even if it was the devil, God used him. Because even the devil is God's devil. You need some Bible.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Don't play with me. We go right to Job. Have you considered my servant Job? He said God says it to the devil. Even the devil is God's devil. He's in full control. Watch this. And use the devil to get Job to a greater glory in the END.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

So so it says watch. This is very important for somebody. See that you do not I'm in Hebrews 12. See that you do not refuse him

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

who speaks One of the greatest gifts God can ever give to you is to shake you. Because I'm talking to you. I'm trying to get your attention because the time has come for you to get into position and you are a little hard headed. We all are. Comfort and familiar makes us hard headed.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Sometimes hard hearted. And so God says I love you too much to make you miss your moment. So what I'm

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna shake you and it's not gonna feel good and you're gonna feel dizzy and you're not gonna like it and you're gonna want the spitting to stop. But I'm up to something. I am the potter. You are the clay.

[Podcast Host / Advertiser]

You are.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

You are on my will and I am transforming you and making you into something you could never be if I didn't shake somebody shout shake.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

I need to shake it.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

And when you mature, he must. You'll get to a place with tears in your eye, tears streaming down your face Body in pain, heart in pain Pocketbooks in pain. But you will say God. Shake baby, shake. God, I trust you. I know you got a good plan for me Plans to prosper me and not to harm me. I know your character is only good. So shake baby, shake. Shake baby, shake Shake baby, shake Shake it until you break everything that ate me off of me. Shake baby, shake Break baby, break Shake. How bad do you want to be you? How bad do you want it? Do you want to stay the same or do you want to get into alignment? Do you want to stay the same or do you want to be what God knew about you before he put you in your mother's womb? How bad do you want it? Will you fast for it? Will you pray for it? Will you lay down your life for it? All of creation gets it. Everybody gets it but us. Creation is like, oh God, will the sons of God please stand up? Will they go ahead and go through this process?

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Here's the thing about shaking when God shakes you. The only thing that shakes when God shakes you is what ain't you.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Cuz your spirit can't be shaken. God shakes everything about you that ain't you that you don't know, ain't you? So God's got to shake it. You thought you needed it, you were holding on to it. And then God started shaking it and shaking it and the next thing you know it's gone and you realize you didn't need it in the first place. Shake baby, shake. Shake everything that ain't me. Shake everything that's against me. Shake everything that I built that you didn't build. Shake it.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

You got to study that passage. I shake everything it can be shaken. That is the things that are being shaken. But we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Some of you are getting ready to move from church to kingdom. I feel the Holy Ghost. Because you built it on the title

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

of Christian, or you built it on the title of your job, or you

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

built it on the degrees behind your name, or you built it because of who you are in relationship with. And God is saying, I'm getting ready to shake everything in your life that cannot withstand the Father Fire, that cannot withstand the flood, that cannot withstand the trouble I'm about to cause you to rise up like you have never risen up before. Because I've got work for you to do. There's a call, There's an assignment that only the sun version of you can do. You've been trying to do it in your own strength. But I thought I told you it don't happen by might. It don't happen by power. It happens by my breath, by my ruach, by my spirit. Somebody ought to worship. Get in position. Get in position. Can't you see the writing is on the wall? Where will God find you when it all goes down? Hallelujah. Adam, oh, Adam, where are you? Get in position. Get in position. Get in position. We refuse to live out of position.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

We refuse to live out of alignment.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Can't you hear heaven speaking? He's shaking not only heaven, but earth. He's shaking it all.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

He is shaking the nations right in

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

front of our eyes.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

And if you would pay attention, he's shaking you too.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

And you think it's the devil.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Even the devil has to get permission.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

And if God ever gives the devil

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

permission, it is so that you can get into position. And the Holy Spirit. See, the Holy Spirit separates the real from the fake. You can be gifted, you can be. You can be biblically literate. You can preach and sing and even prophesy. But the Holy Ghost is the truth. He is the difference maker, and he will lead us. Watch this. In truth and to truth. Why do I make that distinction in a conversation about alignment? Is because the Bible calls the Holy Spirit. John 16 and 13. He says, he is the spirit of truth. I can lead you to truth and not be truth. But he is the spirit of truth. He is my inner alignment. And he leads me in truth to truth. So if I want to be in alignment, I have to be intentional about my personal relationship with the Holy Spirit. When Jesus was getting ready to go, he says, I got something better that's coming. He says. In fact, he says, you. You actually. I know you. You trying to keep me here, but trust me, you actually want me to leave. Because right now I'm with you. But when I leave, I'm gonna be in you forever. And what I give you and what I lead you, what I leave for you will lead you. Thank you, Jesus. So I have to watch this. A relationship with the Holy Spirit. Here's another thing I'll say about that. The Bible says. The Bible talks about, says that we should not grieve the Holy Spirit. We can. We can grieve the Holy Spirit. How do you grieve the Holy Spirit? Well, the Holy Spirit is only grieved by one thing. Untruth. So watch this. So. So you're in a relationship with the Holy Spirit. Watch this. Sometimes we would rather have the Holy Spirit grieve than us grieve what we need to let go of in order to be in alignment. Come on, track with me. Track with me. I'mma grieve the Holy Spirit because I don't want to grieve the death of something that I need to kill in my life. So I would rather have him grieve than me grieve. That's why Jesus said in Matthew 6, he says, Blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted. In other words, in order to follow me, you're gonna have to mourn because you have to grieve some things that. I'm shaking.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Yeah,

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

You. You can't walk with God without grieving. Some stuff, stuff that you like, some stuff that you want. Watch this. Even some things that you are inclined to. That's irrelevant. So are you going to grieve the Holy Ghost? See grieving the Holy Spirit. And sometimes you can actually feel it too. He's like, that ain't it. And you're like, but, but, but, but, but, but, but that six pack. Or them Carmel eyes. Go something like this. If loving you is wrong. And so I would rather grieve. Watch this. The only hope I have at alignment. The only hope I have at alignment. The only hope I have at being me because I'm not willing to temporarily grieve.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Get in position. I want to say this and we're going to pray that I got more. But that's enough for today. It is time for you to take your place in three areas specifically. Three areas specifically. The first is in spiritual authority. The second is in economic empowerment. And the third is in societal impact. This does not take away from anything we've talked about, but I want to give you some practical things that I want you to be praying through as you come into alignment. It's such an amazing thing that we have officials here who are running for office because honestly, all three of those relate to you. Spiritual authority first and foremost, because when you are given natural authority, it is a gift from God. But what makes you an effective servant of the highest order is where you function in spiritual authority is when you're not just legislating naturally, but you're legislating spiritually in prayer and in becoming. God will give you wisdom, strategy and favor and insight. He will allow you to outwit the devil, to outsmart. He will allow you to see the wickedness and he will allow you to make a move that will cut it off but before it even got started. But you need spiritual authority and that's for all of us. God gave us. I don't have time to teach it, but God gave us as the church, not just the authority to be loud, but the authority to be effective. And sometimes the quieter you are, the more effective you can be. You don't always have to announce your strategy. What army announces its strategy? Just move.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Just move.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

Spiritual authority. This is very important. Economic empowerment. A lot of times we think that economic empowerment is not a spiritual thing. But resources have always been a part of what God did with his servants from Abraham on down. Are you tracking with me? We're right now devising a strategy right now to get resources to Iran. Many of you don't know this, but I planted a church out of one church probably 15 years ago that is an all Farsi speaking church. They're all former Muslims in California, several hundred members. They're all former former Muslims from Iran that have given their lives to Jesus. Hello. Going strong right now. And they have access to get resources into this region that has been destabilized. If we didn't have no money, all we can do is say thoughts and prayers and God is going to cause you to increase if you're intentional about it. Are you tracking with me? That's one of the things that the School of Kings was about and where the men at. You were at the School of Kings. Just holler at me. If you were at the School of Kings, we weren't playing, literally a playbook to show you how to not just quote Deuteronomy 8:18, but to manifest Deuteronomy 8:18. I've given you the ability to create wealth, spiritual authority, economic empowerment, and societal impact. We have to get into position because God is going to use us through those channels. And this is for everybody. You may be at a point or an age in your life where you don't, you know, you don't necessarily feel like you're going to start a business that ain't. That's not necessarily. That doesn't have to be true, but that might be where you are. Spiritual authority, though we need your prayers. We need your intercession, your. Your prayers that have been tried and true. You have the faith that we need. We need your mentorship. I'm so grateful for what the deacons are doing.

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

The.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

The more mature deacons are meeting with the younger deacons and building them up. And then the younger deacons, Deacons are pouring into the older deacons in the area of technology. It's crazy what's happening. Everybody has a part to play, but we all must get into position. I want to pray for you. I want everyone to stand. Don't leave if you don't have to. The Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit. Hallelujah. The Holy Spirit leads us in alignment and to alignment. I would be presenting before you an impossible feat to be in alignment without the reality of the Holy Spirit. He is real and he is here. When you say yes to Jesus, when you say yes to Jesus, because the Holy Spirit has begun, has begun to draw you. You saying yes is you opening up to the voice that draws. The voice that draws is the Holy Spirit. You can't even say Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit. So if you have the ability to say Jesus is Lord, to perceive right now, perhaps you've never felt it, but to perceive right now that Jesus says Lord, that is the Holy Spirit at work. But there are levels to this. There's surrendering to the Holy Spirit so that you might receive more. Even a baptism where you're filled, submerged with the Holy Spirit and that's where we got to get to. You want to get to a place where you're in alignment, where you stop fighting Him. The Bible says if we walk Galatians 5:16, if we walk in the Spirit, you will not fulfill the lust of the flesh. This means that the Holy Spirit leads you in alignment. I need him. My flesh is powerful, my way and

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

my will is powerful.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

But the Holy Spirit is greater. The Bible talks about in Romans 8, if we by the Spirit put to death the deeds of the body, so we put to death the deeds of the flesh by the Holy Spirit. We can't do it without the Holy Spirit. So I want to extend a multi tiered invitation. First of all, if you're watching via live stream, I want you to tap into this. If you are under the sound of my voice and Jesus is speaking to you and you know it and he's drawing you and you want to say yes to Him. The Spirit has been knocking at the door of your heart and you have found it difficult to say yes because in your own might and strength, you're quiet, quality person. So you don't want to be a hypocrite and you do not see how you're going to be able to walk in the ways of God. And you know what? I actually respect you for thinking that way. You are one who doesn't play with God and I respect you for that. But here is the thing. His Spirit will give you the ability that you don't have. So you're weighing the outcome through the lens of your own strength. And he's saying, I'm not calling you to me in your own strength. You just need to take what little strength you have and come to me and watch me work. So if you're here and you cannot deny or watching and you cannot deny Jesus's tug on your life by the Holy Spirit and you say, I'm saying yes, I'm opening up my heart to go Christ and I'm going to trust him to give me the strength to walk with Him. I want you to come and meet me here at this altar. You can just come while I'm talking. If you're walking, if you're watching via live stream, just put it in the chat. I receive Jesus. Just, just come on. Don't, don't worry about who's looking. Don't worry about who's looking just because this is serious. This is serious. That's the first point is invitation. I see you walking. Come on Come on, we ought to celebrate like heaven is rejoicing. Come on, come on, come on, come on, let's celebrate Like. Like heaven is rejoicing because it is. Because heaven is over one and I see dozens. Come on, put it in the chat. If that's you, put in the chat. You keep coming while I'm talking. Keep coming while I'm talking. The second point. Keep coming while I'm talking. We love you. This is for you. We exist for you. Just keep coming. The second point of this invitation is if you're here and you have been. If you're honest, you have probably been grieving the Holy Spirit. There's been conviction that you have been forcing down. And you say, I don't. I'm not going to grieve, though. I'm going to yield. I want to yield to the Holy Spirit and rededicate my life. Because I want the Holy Spirit to lead me. I want the Holy Spirit. If that's you, I want you to come down and meet me at the altar. Just keep coming while I'm talking. You don't have to stop. Keep coming. We just keep on coming. If you're watching via live stream, just put, I receive the Holy Spirit. Say, I receive you, Holy Spirit. Put that right there in the chat. If you're here and through the Word, the Lord articulated your season. And you realize that God has shaken you not to break you, but to better you. And you're not. Hear me clearly. This is so important because somebody's destiny is on the line here. And you're not going to resist the shaking. You've been resisting it. You've been calling it the devil, and you've been spiritualizing it. And over spirit just lying on the. Lying on God. And you just say, God, not my will, but your will. Here it is. I surrender to the shaking. If that's you, I want you to come and meet me here at the altar. Because as you surrender to the shaking, I believe that God's going to give you strength. He's going to give you strength and perspective that you need. Watch this. Not to just survive the shaking, but you're gonna be better because of the shaking. Here, here, here. Also you are going to say, I promise you, if you don't have to leave, don't leave. This is holy. You're gonna say, it was good that I was afflicted. You're gonna say that. It's hard to say it in the moment, but God's given you understanding. And you're gonna say, ah, man, well, God brings you to the other side. When you see what the shaking was for, you're gonna say, it was good that I was afflicted. I know it sounds crazy now. It's crazy how the Bible says, but our light afflictions, which are but for a moment, are working a far greater weight of eternal glory. A light affliction never feels like a light affliction. When you're in the affliction, it never feels like a light affliction. It is only after the weight of glory shows up because of the affliction that you realize in comparison, it was a light affliction. I'm not trying to make it small. I'm not trying to make the pain small. I'm not trying to make the hurt small. I'm not delegitimizing your feelings at all. I am validating and affirming that it. That it hurt, that it is expensive. But what I am saying, and I will reiterate what the Apostle Paul said in Romans 8.

[Advertiser / Sponsor Voice]

8.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that shall be revealed in us. That is not a failure to acknowledge the suffering. I'm saying that when the glory shows up, you will realize that it was worth it. So much so. So much so. And this will sound crazy, but hear me. So much so, if you had to go through it again, you would do so because of what you've seen on

[Co-Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

the other side, what it produced.

[Main Speaker / Pastor / Preacher]

And God says, but I won't leave you in the fire by yourself. I will be the fourth man in the fire right there with you. I promise you that. So if you're here and you say, I'm going to surrender to the shaking, if that's you online, just put, I'm surrendering to the shaking and pray we're done here. And I've been real, real the weight of that. I've carried this burden. And it hit me real hard, like early yesterday morning. Felt like just. I'm like, all right, God. And that's. That's when I know I'm. I'm carrying something. And maybe in some way I was carrying you. I'm not trying to make small of what you feel and what you feel face. Sometimes, man, it gets so rough, man. Life, man, sometimes life hurts. It flat out hurts. Life itself hurts. Not I'm hurting in life. Life hurts. That's. That's the. You know, so I'm letting you know I get it. That's. That's how heavy it is. And what the enemy would love to do, right? When you're on the cusp of an understanding, See, the breakthrough is not in the circumstances changing. It's in your perspective changing. When the Bible says that weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. He's not talking about circumstances. He's talking about when the light of Revelation shows up. My joy can recom because I realize that this is temporary and it's working something for me or I wouldn't be in it. God is not a deadbeat abandoning God, I will never leave you nor forsake you. When you go through the fires, I'll be with you. And through the rivers, they will overflow you when you go through the waters. So I'm not making small at all. I'm saying, trust the shaker. Trust the Shaker. Here's the word of the Lord. For you shall come forth as gold. As gold. And your clothes won't even smell like smoke. You will not look like your life will not look like what it has been through. So, God, I give you these, your sons and daughters, those here and those watching. I did what you told me to do. I said what you told me to say. And I entrust their lives, their situation and their season into your hands. Your word will not return unto you void, but it shall accomplish that for which it was sent. God, you've got sons and daughters opening up their hearts to you for the very first time. And all of us had that first time. It changed everything. Seal it. Seal their faith here right now that it will never be uprooted or never be shaken. Seal the truth in them that they will trust you all the days of their lives. And then, God, there's some here under the sound of my voice that are entering into a new or renewed relationship with the Holy Spirit. You are a faithful friend. You are our advocate. You are our guide. You are our comforter. You are everything. You are our voice. You are our alignment. You are our strength. You are our victory. You are everything. And God, you are all we will ever need. So seal them with the Holy Spirit of promise. And then, God, there's some who are rededicating their lives to you, some who are saying, God, I trust you even with the shaking. And I am no longer going to fight the shaking, which is your voice, which is your messenger. But I'm going to say, yes, Lord, not my will, but your will be done. And Father, as they surrender, I thank you for the grace that is meeting them right now in this moment. And I thank you God for the transfer. You said, my yoke is easy and my burden is light. And as they stop fighting and stop resisting, and as they yield, and as they yield, I thank you. As they yield. As they yield, you will strengthen them. You will give them peace. You will give them shalom. You will give them wholeness. God says, I can got you even the way I'm holding you like this, and I'm doing this as a representation. I pray that everyone in this room, everyone in the sound of my voice, will feel the Father's arms wrapped around them. God saying, I got you. I won't drop you. I won't let you fall. I won't let you fall. I'll be with you. I'm for you. Before I put you in your mother's womb, I knew you and I ordained you. And I set you apart. And I called you and I chose you and I claimed you. I claimed you. That's all that matters. I claimed you. You are mine. You belong to me, says the Lord. I got you. I'm for you.

So, God, I give you these. Your sons and daughters. Commit them to you for your purposes and your work. I thank you that their steps are ordered. You've ordered their steps. And they will have the sensitivity to your voice to walk in those divine steps. And they will be blessed as they go. Not an easy path, but a sure path from glory to glory. I want you to repeat after me. Heavenly Father, I thank you for your love. I feel it. Heavenly Father, I thank you for your word. I receive it. Heavenly Father, I thank you for Jesus. Thank you for making him who had no sin. All of mine, all of my weakness, all of my limitations, all of my shortcomings, even my stubbornness. You put in his body, nailed it to the cross and put it to death. And just as he was raised up free and victorious, because I'm in him, I'm raised up, too. Holy Spirit, my promise and my portion, I receive you. Fill me to the overflow that I might walk in truth, in power, in victory and in divine alignment. Not my will, but your will be done. Lord, may I never grieve you. But may I be willing to grieve what needs to go. I declare my allegiance to your will for my life. And I thank you. You'll give me the strength to walk it out. And when I stumble, you will catch me. And when I start going to the left a little, your spirit will bring me back to center. This is a new day. I'm chosen, I'm called and I'm on my way to amazing things for your glory In Jesus name, Amen. Amen. Amen, Amen. Hallelujah. I love you so much.
