The War Over Your Destiny: Part 1

0:00 The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. God will put the prayer in your heart to pray so that he can answer it. It goes into the hearts of the people, doesn't return void, it produces results. Before we get into the word, and those of you that are online, I just want you to know that we have brought our books. I know many of you have my books. This is one of my favorite books called Focus Eliminating Distractions for Enhanced Spiritual Vision. I talk about all the different distractions that come our way, that keep us from looking unto Jesus, the author and the perfecter of our faith.

0:46 This is a book that I wrote after about three and a half years of spending time in the presence of God when he had me on hold and told me he didn't want me to go anywhere or do anything, just spend time with him. Anyway, those of you that are online, you can go to my website, margieflorantministries.org, and you can order it there. I have another book, Encountering God Through Prayer. This takes the reader from how do I begin to pray, learning and developing my prayer life. This would be a good book for the Millennials, the Z generations. Begin with 15 minutes, find a quiet place in your house, very practical. Hook yourself up to the inside of you, how to yield to the Holy Ghost.

1:29 I could take the reader all the way into meditative kind of praying and what that looks like. And then our most recent book is Contend. How many of you have my book, Contend? Stewarding the Hearts and Destinies of Our Children Through Prayers is my recent book. And this is everything that I know about the prayer, specifically of intercession, but as it relates to your children, your families. And I have about almost a hundred promises concerning your children, that all of your children will be taught of the Lord, great will be the peace and undisturbed composure of your children, how to pray for them.

2:10 And this is a book that I really went into detail about tongues and travail in intercession, which you don't really hear too much about nowadays, but I believe that the Holy Spirit is going to ignite that third level of praying. So anyway, we're going to go ahead and get into the Word of God. I do have a message today for you as a church body. And I'm actually coming, you know, in the spirit. I have an authority on me today. And, you know, there's levels of authority and I feel a little bit like God's been trying to move me into another level of authority and put a few more stripes on my coat and more of a voice that's uttering his voice before his great army and getting the army of God ready for what is coming, getting the army of God ready and equipped for what is coming, what he wants us to do, what he wants us to be and what he wants us to look like.

3:26 And the Lord wants you to know today that you are in a war. There's war over your personal destiny. There's war over the church. There's war over the universal church. And you may say, well, why is there war? Because the enemy sees that we are advancing. The enemy sees that we're getting up and we're making progress. And so what the enemy wants to do is he wants to abort the purpose and the plan of God from advancing in this day and in this hour. Now, whether you like it or not, you have been called by God to live in a time such as this, number one.

4:13 But number two, you are called to be a part of the army of God that he is raising up in this day and in this hour. You've been called, you've been chosen, and he is equipping you. But there's something we need, and that's what we're going to talk about today, before we can fully enter into the fullness of what God has called us to be and called us to do. And I don't know about you, but I am not stopping. I'm not quitting. I am not giving up. I am not retiring. I am refiring. Because there's too much work to be done in the earth today.

4:54 And we don't have to be a rocket scientist and understand that we are living in perilous times. We are living in the right smack in the middle of Isaiah 61 through 5, where the word of God says that gross darkness is covering the earth and all kinds of shaking is going on in the world. All kinds of earthquakes, all kinds of things are happening. But at the same time, the glory of God is rising in his army. And you are a part of the army. Now, it's interesting because when I was sitting over there now, I'm seeing it again. I see the Lord as a man of war, and he's a man of war, but he's got a crown on his head.

5:42 And I see him sitting on a horse, and I see him uttering his voice before his great army. But he is also sitting on that horse, and he is waiting for some of you, and those of you that are listening online, to get your acts together. Get your confession straight. Understand your identity and the season and the time that we are living in today. Get on your horse. Some of you have fallen off of your horse. A righteous man can fall many, many times, but it takes a really strong person to get back up on your horse.

6:24 The Bible says, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. So I see the Lord, and he's waiting. And I see him on his horse, and he's got that crown. You know, the crown that the Lord has on his head is not a Miss Universe crown. It's a crown that's about this thick, and it's made of solid gold, and there's rubies and all kinds of diamonds and stones all around that crown. I saw his crown one time, and if the Lord permits, I'll tell you about it.

7:04 But that crown is on his head, and it's a very heavy crown, and he earned it. He is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. And he's sitting on his horse, and he's got his crown on his head, but he's also clothed with the full armor. He is a soldier. He is a man of war, and he's waiting for us to take our place as soldiers. And he's our commander in chief. His name is Jesus. Why do you think he is anointing the five-fold leaders with fresh soil? Because he wants us to take our place. He wants us to be fully equipped, because what happens at the top filters down into the church.

7:53 So he's also calling those of you that are listening, that are five-fold ministry, he's uttering his voice before you, and he's requiring more of you in this day and in this hour. He's uttering more of you. Nope, nope, no, no, retiring. Nope, it's refiring time. I'm going to read a scripture. There's such an anointing on me, I feel like I'm... Maseke menando stereavazotora. Lean not to your own understanding, but in all your ways acknowledge me, for I am directing your path. And the path that is set before you may not look like the path that you had in your mind, because I am the Lord of the armies. And I am the one that is setting things in motion and setting things in place. So surrender yourself to me and surrender your will to me, and I will teach you in the way that you should go.

9:02 Some of you are like the horse and the mule. I have to pull you about as with bits, but the Lord is saying today, I want you to allow me to put you on the straight and narrow path, and it's a path that is my perfect will, plan, and order for your life. And as you stay on that path, and you say yes to me and not my will, your will be done, yes to me, I will take you in a new degree of anointing, I will take you into a new degree of prosperity, I will take you into a new degree of all the desires that you have in your heart.

9:42 But continue, says the Lord, to listen to my voice. Some of you have become hard of hearing, and some have become hardened in your heart. I want you to fine-tune yourself and listen to my voice, because you will hear a word behind you and within you, and I will say unto you, this is the way, walk ye in it, and so you shall walk, and then you will walk for a season, Abbe Agena Anito Ramasa, and then after you've been faithful to walk on that path, you will begin to run, and you will begin to run with the vision, and you will run, and you will run, and you won't grow weary, no, because my spirit is upon you, and I'll turn you into another man, and I'll strengthen you with my, by my spirit in your inner man, and you will run, and you will run, and run, and run, and I see you matching up with wings like an eagle, and I see you soaring high above, soaring high above, and so you shall fly above, and you shall live, and move, and have your being in me, and out of that soaring time with me, I'm going to reign on my church, I'm going to reign on my body, I'm going

11:14 to reign out of you, signs and wonders and miracles, the power gifts will begin to flow, and men and women will know that I am the Lord God, I change not, and nothing is too hard for me, and where there was a crippled man, that man shall stand up right on his feet, and he shall walk, where there has been a blood disorder, I the Lord God, I am the same yesterday, today, and forever, and my healing power, the power, the power, the power, will manifest, and that blood disorder will be something of the past, so set your faces like a flint, says the Lord, and know that I am about to do some great and mighty things in my church, haven't you called upon me, I have heard the cries of my people, I am in the process of answering thee, and I will show you great and mighty things, but I need you my people to get into position, I need you my people to be steadfast, immovable, do that which I ask you to do, get back into the race, seek my face, turn from your wicked ways, and turn your attention back on me, because it's all about me, says the Lord, didn't I say in my word that if I be

12:45 lifted up, I will draw all men unto me, so this is a time of great harvest, this is a time of miracles, many will believe on me because of the miracles, this is a time of a great harvest, they will see me in manifestation, and they won't see you, because you will be hidden behind the cross, but they will see me, and I will answer them, I will shine my light upon them, I will be glorified in this day and in this hour, because this is not a revival or a movement, a man's movement, this is a faceless movement, and the only face men will see in this day and in this hour, the only face that they will see is me.

13:45 Releasing the vision of the Holy Ghost for this people in this day and in this hour, without a vision the people perish, but I am imparting unto you my people vision, vision of what is to come, vision of the future, and as you have this vision, you won't look at what you see down here, you will look with the eyes of the Spirit of what I see, says the Lord, and it'll cause you to step up into that level, that which I see, that which I desire to do, many of you are at a low, low level, you are yet carnal, you are yet carnal, and have need of milk, but I am going to teach you, I'm going to bring you up, and I'm going to give you strong meat, and you may gag a little bit over here, and you may gag a little bit over here, but I'm going to teach you how to chew on meat, I'm going to teach your hands to war and your fingers to fight, and you will be everything that I have called you to be, because I know what I am doing, I know the dream and the desire that I have in my heart, for those of you that live in a time such as this, and so it shall be, get back up, get back onto that path, you will walk, then you will run, and then you will

15:18 soar, and out of the soaring is going to come the miracles, and the signs, and the wonders, that which you have desired, that which you have craved, that which you have longed for, you pray and you say, Lord, heal this one over here, and heal this one over there, well where sin abounds, grace will so much more abound, and my gifts of grace will be in manifestation, whereby the faith of man has nothing to do with that which I am going to do, and you will see the gift of faith in manifestation, you will see the working of miracles in manifestation, you will see the gifts of healings in manifestation, where suddenly, suddenly, I shall descend, and my power shall descend, just like in the days of old that many of you've read about, and my power descended, and nobody had anything to do with it, nobody touched anybody, only a word of knowledge came forth, and I perceived someone's being healed over here, and someone's being healed over there, and it's not by might, not by power, but it's by my spirit, ha ha ha, I just surprised my people, and I just surprised my people, and the power of God, the power of the Most High,

16:51 will overshadow many, and my power will be in manifestation, and many will run, and jump, and leap, and be healed of cancers, and tumors, that which doctors cannot heal, many have suffered many things, of many physicians, have spent all that they have, and have not gotten any better, but have rather grown worse, but oh, the hem of my garment is going to be made manifested, and my power is going to flow, and it's going to flow unto those that don't even know me, those that some would say, how could they receive a miracle? No, no, no, it's not by might, not by power, it's by my spirit, and by the operations of the gift of faith, working in miracles, gifts of healings, and the gifts of these are the grace gifts, and I will do it, that which I have spoken shall surely come to pass, maka lena nona de dabah, ha ha ha, this is sufficient of the Holy Ghost, this is the vision of the Holy Ghost, better hear him, listen up, this is the time, this is the season, and this is the place. Lift your hands, revision, revision, revision, revision, revision, revision, un emesa, un emesa, there's a revision, revision, revision,

18:24 menemene, menemene, vistoramendation, I saw that, I saw that, let it show, yep, yep, yep, listen, listen, listen, listen, this is a vision of the Holy Ghost, this is the vision of the Holy Ghost, this is the vision of the Holy Ghost. You know what it is, we put God in a box, teach me how to prophesy, teach me about dream interpretation, teach me about how to flow, what about the Holy Ghost, Acts 1044, just falling on them that hear the word, what about the gift of faith, working in miracles, gifts of healings, he said I'm coming back for a powerful church, we're not going out of here weak, we're not going out of here defeated, we're going out of here in power and in demonstration of the Holy Ghost, and many of you are going to live to see it, are you listening, many of you are going to live to see it.

19:41 Marikendurah, Messiah, leading not to your own understanding, but in all your ways, acknowledging me and allowing me to direct your, what, path. Now let's just lift our hands, and those of you online do the same, Lord not my will, let's say it together, Lord not my will, your will be done in my life, not my will, put me on the path that you want me to be on, you said in your word that the heart of the king is in the hand of the Lord, I give you my heart today, I give you my heart today, you are my king, you are my God, I give you my heart, pull on my heart, pull me in the direction that you want me to go, I give you my heart, you are my Lord, you are my Savior, I give you my all.

21:07 The path, stay on the path, let me tell you that path is straight, and that path is very narrow, some of you got to give up some things, I've been working on it, I have to give up some things, and I'm telling you I'm working on it, have I get, am I all there yet, no, but I'm on a path, and this path is not my path, I haven't chosen this path, he chose it for me, before the foundations of the earth he chose it for me, before I ever formed you in your mother's womb, I knew you and I chose you, I didn't choose the path, and I don't know about you, but I didn't come this far to step off the path, work on me Lord, oh we don't want to say it, now do we, because we are grace people, but creating me a clean heart, renew a right spirit within me, don't take your anointing from me, creating me a clean heart, and I'll tell you sometimes pain and suffering causes you to get on your path, I had so much pain, so much suffering, you know, I'm gonna be honest, there's been times in the last four years,

22:41 because I've been through a lot, that sometimes I wanna, this is how I say it to my friends, I wanna lay on the floor and choke myself, I'm in so much pain, or the loneliness is so much, I just wanna lay on the floor and choke myself, holy God, another night, another day alone, another thing, another, it's painful to submit yourself to the will, the plan, and the purpose of God, not all the time, but let me tell you, I got good news, weeping may endure for a moment, you weep girl, you just weep, but joy will come in the morning, God is not a man that he should lie, neither the son of man that he should repent, what he's spoken to you, he will make good, it's just you're just on this little pain thing, just get through it, you'll get through it, God said, oh God, this is like one of these messages, God said, I am not unjust, he said, listen to me, listen to me, there's no temptation taking you, but such as is common to man, listen, he gets it, he's moved, he's touched with the feelings of our infirmities, but he said, there's no temptation taking you, but such as is common to man, I will, God is a will, I will provide a way of

24:12 escape, you're coming out, you're coming out, I said you're coming out, are you listening to me online, you're coming out, you know, Jesus was tempted in all ways like we were, yet without sin, can you imagine, always as we were without sin, he went up and then he, his, the biggest temptation of them all, he confronts Satan himself, and the Bible says, aren't you glad we quote Bible, the Bible says, he went up, he was actually led by the spirit into the temptation, some of the pain you're experiencing, I believe the Holy Ghost just led you into it, so just relax, I'm being led by my spirit into the pain, all right, I'm gonna, yeah, you know what I just heard of my spirit, just now, endure hardness as a good soldier of Jesus Christ, but he went up into the temptation led by the spirit, he was full of the spirit, right, you know the Bible, you get good teaching here, come on, you got the best teacher in the, in the region, I tell him that all the time, he doesn't like to go there, but I seen it all, I travel, okay, he went up into the wilderness full of spirit, do you know when he came out of that temptation, he

25:46 returned in the power of the spirit, and I think that's what the Holy Ghost is saying, we're gonna return, we're coming out, and we're coming out in the power of the spirit, we're not just gonna prophesy, I'm not despising prophecy, I just did it, we are not gonna just prophesy, we are not gonna have a little word, I don't want to diminish the gifts, we're not gonna have just a word of wisdom, word of knowledge, thank God for all the revelatory gifts, thank God we need them all, because it gives us eyes to see and ears to hear the strategies of the devil, got it, but you know, there's more, there's more, there's nine gifts, not six, what are we contending for, you know what we're contending for, we're contending for the manifestation of the Holy Ghost, for him to demonstrate himself, which he longs to do and desires to do through and by the power gifts, this was not my message, just so you know, do you know in the days of Catherine Coleman, do you know that, she didn't

27:18 even know she was called to be what she was, oh my God and she was divorced, God forbid she was divorced, not only was she divorced, she was a woman, and you know the Holy Ghost chose her, he just chose her, I'm gonna take the foolish things of this world and I'm gonna confound the wise and all these guys that are lifted up in pride and are committing sexual sins with minors and women and now they're all, it's all coming out now because you know everything hidden is gonna be revealed.
