Like if I could, like apostles, the best description of them I could give you is sandpaper. Am I helping anyone today? Yeah, she's saying smooth me out. Oh, yeah, you, oh, yeah. You got devil.

Multi-cultural team leadership at Antioch. The kingdom trumps culture. Not a cultural gospel. A biblical gospel. We need them all. Okay?"

I want to just share a vision that I had when we began to talk about me coming here and kind of this shift that was taking place.

And just so you know, I'm like a real, I don't know, I wrote all this on a napkin, okay? So I don't really have, you know, expensive devices and stuff. I'm just kind of real, real original, okay? So I still have a paper Bible I write in. I know it's sacrilegious and stuff. Definitely scared the guy in the plane this morning, but okay.

So I had a vision of being out in a field or in a large plain, if you will. It felt like maybe Nebraska or Colorado, just a big, big open field. And I felt like it was in the past. And I began to hear the laugh of what I felt, what I felt like was a hyena.

Now, sometimes the prophetic moves into a little bit of a, you know, godly imagination. So I'm kind of thinking Lion King theme. Okay, I don't know if that will, okay. Holy Spirit, help us today.

So I felt like I began to hear the laughter, the mocking, and the threatening of like a hyena. I felt like it was a variation. I felt like it was a variation of a hyena or a wild donkey. The Lord began to talk to me about a diatrophes spirit.

Now, Paul warns in the New Testament about a man named diatrophes who desired preeminence in all things. And I felt like the Lord was talking to me about a spirit that operated in a man, in an individual, that was high in the air. That was hyena-like. That was wild donkey-like.

Another picture or vision that I got was like Nebuchadnezzar. Where we know that Nebuchadnezzar was literally so out of his mind, he began to crawl on the ground, and the Lord ended up restoring him. But the Lord started talking to me about this kind of spirit in the past, okay.

And then I saw a great, great, great woman, a group of people here move from that season to a new season. And I believe I am here today, and I want to submit to you, I believe I am here today to prophesy or to confirm a season that you're moving into now.

And I think that you're in part of it, but I feel that I am here today as a signpost. I'm here to, I'm here like as a line of deep demarcation, like you have come out and now you're about to walk into.

Okay, so there's been a past, but now we're moving into a new season. And I felt real strongly the Lord say to me, what will mark the new season is holy hunger and humble. Holy hunger and humble.

And so rather than one individual or certain individuals rising up wanting preeminence in all things, the Lord is going to develop and he's going to raise up a hungry and a humble and a holy people in your midst that will lead you into the new season.

Okay, a hungry, holy, and humble people.

So let's, if you're there in Ephesians chapter four, I want to share with you some of what I am seeing today. Apostle Yolanda, I felt like the Lord said to me that you are not called to franchise, but rather you all are called to birth and build fire.

You are not called to commission gifting, but you are called to confirm and build fire and build fire and build fire and build a firm character. You are not called to multiply the pride of men, but you are called to mother sons in the Lord.

There's a special grace and anointing that you carry that's about rhythm, that's about cadence, and that's about longevity. There are territories that you have been forbidden to enter, and the Lord says that they shall open up.

The Lord says that there is a spirit of intimidation, harassment, and even rejection in the land. I believe that what I saw, these spirits have been dealt with, but there's still a residue there.

And the Lord would say that you are going to move into a season where you will not franchise, but you will build and birth fire. That you will not just commission gifted ones, but rather you will confirm the character of God in men and women.

And that you are not called to multiply the pride of men, but rather mother sons and daughters in the Lord. For it is about a rhythm, it is about a cadence, it is about longevity.

I saw you like a magnet in the spirit where because of who God has called you to be as an apostle, you have a commissioning grace on you. You have a mobilization grace on you, and that attracts individuals to you.

But there's a warning and there's a blessing in this: beware of those who have gifting but don't have character. Beware of those who want to rent your name or franchise your name and who don't want to build fire.

And so I believe again that we're here today. You're entering into a new season. There's a new epoch, there's a new season that's upon you, going from one season to the next.

But I believe that the Lord is going to begin to help you find a rhythm and a cadence. The Lord's going to help you in an order. There's something going back to this like hyena, Nebuchadnezzar thing, high, high gifting, but it's like shooting stars, not shining stars.

It's an ability to soar really quickly to the top based off of gifting, but we tear down with our character what we built with a gift. And the Lord has destined you in the earth to see a generation to the finish line because you've seen many not finish well.

They started off pure, they started off humble, but they began to drink from the success of their own labors and they became toxic. And so the Lord is really going to, again, I feel like, yes, you've moved on, but there's fresh breath and there's fresh anointing and there's fresh, I almost feel like you're still finding your footing again.

And that's not a discouragement in any way, but there's still, you're mighty when you're standing, right? The enemy fears you fully stepping into this grace and this calling that he's given you.

So I just want to encourage you with that in Jesus' name.

Okay, so Ephesians chapter four, I want to begin reading in verse four, Ephesians 4:4.

There is one body, one spirit, just as also you were called in one hope of your calling, one Lord, one faith, and one baptism, one God and Father of all who is over all and through all and in all.

Verse seven, but to each one of us, can you say each one of us? I think the screen says every one of us, but to each one of us, grace was given according to the measure of Christ's gifts.

How many of you this morning are born again believers in Jesus Christ? We will always want to welcome anyone who doesn't know Jesus yet, but if you are a born again believer in Jesus Christ, you have been given grace.

Every single person in the kingdom of God has been given grace. Now, what in the world is grace? Let me break it down for you just a little bit. Grace, some would say, is divine influence upon the heart.

Grace is divine influence upon the heart. Another person would say grace is divine empowerment to accomplish and fulfill the will of God.

Can I step down from here? Is that okay? It won't go crazy. Okay. So who has grace in this room? Okay. If you're a believer in Jesus, right? Every person has grace operating and active in your life.

Grace is divine influence upon the heart. Grace is divine empowerment to accomplish the will of God in your life. I've also had an encounter with the Lord where the Holy Spirit said to me, I am the spirit of grace.

When Paul writes and he says grace and peace from God the Father, I believe he's invoking the Trinity. I believe that he's saying grace, Holy Spirit, peace, Jesus is the Prince of Peace, and God the Father.

He's invoking the Trinity to all the churches. I don't know how that sits theologically in here, but that's just my belief. But when you talk about grace has been given to each one of us, there is divine grace empowerment.

There is influence, there is the Holy Spirit living deep down on the inside of us that has been given to us for each of us to accomplish God's will for each of our lives. Say amen. Don't say amen for me, say amen for you because you have to walk out the calling that God has given you.

And that grace to walk out the call is more than having hands laid on you. I appreciate hands being laid on you. I love impartation. I love, you know, getting by famous speakers, but I'm telling you, we are ignoring the Holy Spirit in the church.

We are denying the divine empowerment. We are denying the grace God has given each one of us to accomplish His will. So many of us are saying, God, please come, and He's saying, I'm already there. I'm already there. I'm already there. I'm already there.

I'm more than there; I live in you. Well, Holy Spirit, help me. He has helped you. He's filled you. He resides on the inside of you. Sometimes it's more than God do something; we have to get off of our rear end and start partnering.

Okay, remember I'm here for the meat and the potatoes, okay? I'm not doing the tickle me Elmo prophecy stuff, okay? I'm not doing like another, like we have to grow up into all things who is Christ.

The Lord wants to mature us as His people. He wants each one of us to continue to partner with the grace that He has given us. So every believer in Jesus has grace, but then Paul writes here in Ephesians 4 and he introduces a term called measure, or in the Greek it's called metron.

So there is grace that God has given all of us, but then there are measures of grace that He has given each one of us. So later in the chapter, he talks about apostles, prophets, teachers, pastors, and evangelists.

But you have to understand you could have two apostles in the same room, but according to the gospel, you have two apostles in the same room, and you have to be faithful to the measure of grace because if you don't have the measure of grace, you have to be faithful to the metron of grace that they have been given.

One could be called to tens and others could be called to thousands, and as long as each one of them is faithful to the call, they get a yes, well done. But here's the challenge with social media: we all want to mimic and copy and be something, and most of the time it's not that you want to be them; you just want the sphere of influence they have and you don't have.

There's a deeper issue there; it's more than you wanting that anointing; you want that reach. And so we have to get settled in as the people of God that it really is okay that there are moms in this room, that the grace that God has given you is to mother your children and mother them well.

Oh, I am I preaching to anybody? Well, brother, I don't have the, you know, what you got four world changers right there in your house. And if you will invest, if you will be present, if you will pray, oh man, I'm going to preach today.

Okay, can we talk about this? So, you know, I get this amazing prophetic word that I'm going to reach the nations, but you have to understand from God's perspective, He is a generational God.

I want you to track with me, really track with me. So maybe me going to the nations was never, that's not even, it's about my kids going to the nations. Well, the prophet, yes, God is a, what father or mother would not want to see their children have more success than that?

You know what I'm saying? You get an amazing word of business and it never comes to pass, but your children end up becoming mighty entrepreneurs like the word came to pass. It just was through the bloodline because it wasn't all about you.

Grace has been given to every believer in Jesus. It's empowerment. I want you to look at grace not as a concept but as a person. This is why Paul writes according to the divine power that's at work within you.

Put your hand on your belly for a minute. You got a million dollars in there. You have purpose. I'm saying it's not floating out there. You don't need like a prophet; they're supposed to confirm what's in here, right?

You're dangerous. You're lethal. You're a warrior. You're like, you got it. Turn to your neighbor and say, you got it. Okay? And again, people won't tell you this because they want your money.

As long as I can convince you that I have something you don't have, you keep funding me. It's called the orphanage, but we're in the Father's house. Oh, because in the Father's house we commission; we don't castrate.

Oh man, we might get going by the 3 p.m. We might got to get working today. So there's room for everybody, right? Surely there's enough lost people in Baltimore, so no lost people in Charlotte that we can stop fighting and bickering and becoming jealous.

Grace has been given, but according to the measure. So different from the law, grace has been given to every believer in Jesus, and every believer in Jesus, and every believer in Jesus has been given to every believer in Jesus, prophets to the house, prophets to still all prophets.

But we're learning our sphere, we're learning our measure, we're learning how to grow up into it. Oftentimes it takes longer than we would hope. What I'm trying to tell you is oftentimes the ones that you see get it quicker than others don't last.

You'll see their fear; it gets worse, and you have a feeling. So if it was, if it means you'd pen had folded sleeves and you're kind of stairs, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we want to, we
