"We make this thing a lot more complex than what it is. We just got to believe God and trust God. And if we do, that'll get us to a whole lot of things. The three things I always write down, I never want you guys to forget, is the three things you need to defeat the enemy is always understand the authority that you have." [00:00:50] (24 seconds)
"Most of the time we forget that, but understand the authority that we have. Over in Genesis 1, 26, it reminds us of the authority that we have. And if we have it, he does it. If we have it, the enemy does it. So that's a double header right there. Thank God we got it and he does it. He tries to tell you that he does, but he doesn't." [00:01:14] (23 seconds)
"You are anointed just for the fact we can break it down so many different ways, but you're anointed because the Holy Spirit of God dwells on him. So, you are anointed because the Holy Spirit of God dwells inside of you and he has anointed you. You are a vessel of the Holy Spirit of God." [00:02:49] (17 seconds)
"And so that's what makes you a Christian. So you are anointed. And so God gives us power to use our authority. And so you have the right, but you also have the power. So if you just walk around and saying, I have authority, I have the right and I have power, no matter what the enemy throws at you, you know that you have the ability to overcome whatever the enemy comes and throws at you." [00:03:06] (29 seconds)
"We know that Proverbs says, the power of life and death is in the tongue. And so we speak it, but boy, there is something to be said whenever we speak the word of God. And when you speak the word of God, you declare the word of God. Romans 4, 17 says, calling those things a knot in which they were." [00:03:52] (22 seconds)
"That means you can speak God's word. You just speak the clarity of God's word. And then have that faith behind it. And how many of you can change, you can change the world with it? Go to Luke 1, with that said, just kind of go to Luke 1. I just had this scripture on me, so I just kind of jotted it down a while ago, a few minutes ago, and see what the Lord wanted to do with it." [00:03:58] (28 seconds)
"Now faith is a substance of things hoped for. It's the evidence of things not seen. It tells us what faith is. Now faith is, we think you have to see it to believe it, but faith says you have to believe it before you see it. And that's what it's saying. So this scripture here, and we say it, I mean, I wouldn't put it on the same level as like John 3, 16 or, you know, maybe 23rd Psalm, but it's up there." [00:09:43] (34 seconds)
"Now faith is the substance. So faith is, is determined. Substance is determined, committed, and unrelenting. That's what this word means. It's determined, it's committed, it's unrelenting. I mean, it, it can't be flippant. It can't be halfway. It's got to be determined. It's got to be committed. It's got to be unrelenting. That's why, that's why we assemble together to build our faith up." [00:11:39] (32 seconds)
