If you don't have struggle, you will never have victory. If you don't have a test, you will never have a testimony. And I'm here to tell you, you wanna live with a testimony because if nothing ever happens to us, we live a lot. We are so impotent. We are so, we we can't accomplish anything in this earth unless we are tested. Listen, y'all went to school and y'all had to take tests, so you could prove that you learned something.

That's a word for somebody. The place of your deliverance will be the place of destruction for your enemy. The enemy that you're fighting, again, we don't fight flesh and blood, we fight principalities and powers. But I'm here to tell you where I have I believe this with every fiber of my being.

God is waiting for us to speak his word over this earth into the atmosphere so that his power can be released because we're the stewards of this earth and for anything to be released on this earth, we need to say it. So remember that also when you're talking bad about yourself and about your situation. You're releasing words, okay? But you release that word and it actuates, it activates the spirit of God to begin to go into that for God's plan to go into action. [00:31:33] (34 seconds)  #SpeakToReleasePower

So God doesn't test us to make us fail, he tests us to show us how much we have learned from him. Yes. Glory. He allows tests to come when we have had victories.

But you're gonna have to just show him. [00:23:06] (29 seconds)  #TestsShowYourGrowth

So I have things I could say, but when the Lord's not on it, when the spirit's not on it, it just falls dead. So finally, I said, okay. So I said, guys, I'm going to tell you something God told me.

If you haven't learned yet, the devil, he hates you. Why? Because we were born to fellowship with God. We were made in the image of God and after his likeness and he got kicked out of heaven because he said, I'm gonna be like the most high. And so God created us when when God cast the devil out of heaven, he created us to fellowship with him, to be image bearers of him, to shed, to show his goodness all over the earth, but it's also part of the enemy's punishment.
