Summary
Bishop Henry Fernandez explores Proverbs 24 to show how wisdom and strategic planning are essential for spiritual victory, urging believers to stop making impulsive moves and instead seek God's specific blueprint for their lives.
Key points
- •Victory in life's battles depends on having wise guidance and multiple counselors rather than relying solely on one's own thoughts.
- •Life is a war where the enemy strategically plots to block your progress; you must counter this with a God-centered strategy.
- •Progress is often hindered by 'Lot' relationships-baggage or people you were never meant to carry into your next season.
- •You must move from an 'average' mindset to a kingdom mindset, recognizing your royal identity as a child of God.
- •Strategic moves require a combination of faith, discernment, patience, and a clear execution plan.

0:00If you haven't heard yet, we're going to
0:01the Bahamas November 2nd to the 4th. I'd
0:05love for you to
0:07come with us as we go there to share our
0:10faith, but also to help become our best
0:15self. Amen?
0:17All right, I want to base the sermon
0:20this morning on Proverbs 24
0:24verses 3 to 6. Proverbs 24
0:303 to 6. And as you remain standing, I'll
0:33read it, pray, and then I'll ask you to
0:35be seated if you don't mind.
0:38And this is a very powerful passage of
0:40scripture, and it's going to lay the
0:42foundation to where I believe God wants
0:44to take us
0:45today.
0:47It says, "A house is built by wisdom
0:52and becomes strong through good sense.
0:58Through knowledge, its rooms are filled
1:01with all sorts of precious riches and
1:04valuables.
1:06The wise are mightier than the strong
1:08and those with knowledge grow stronger
1:12and stronger, but please pay attention
1:15to verse 6.
1:17So, don't go to war
1:20without wise guidance.
1:24Victory depends
1:26on having many advisers.
1:31Father, we ask that your presence will
1:33now even
1:35increase
1:37as I preach this word.
1:42You allowed
1:47to remain alive
1:50because you're giving them a second
1:52chance.
1:55You didn't take them out of this world
2:00like you've taken others because there's
2:02so many who went to bed last night,
2:05didn't wake up this morning, and so many
2:06started yesterday,
2:09but did not have the privilege to see
2:12today.
2:13But that person, you kept alive.
2:17That person, you have allowed them to be
2:20in this space and time
2:23because there's so much more you have
2:25planned for them.
2:28Now, I am given the task this morning
2:32to give them a word directly from you.
2:36I pray that they would look beyond me
2:38and see you and hear you.
2:41Therefore, God, I take this
2:43responsibility serious, and that's why I
2:45ask that you would think with my mind,
2:48speak with my vocal cords.
2:51Let no flesh glorify in this moment, but
2:54let your presence be felt by every
2:57individual. And Father, every
2:59distraction that the enemy will put in
3:01this moment, we nullify it now. We
3:04rebuke it now in the mighty name of
3:06Jesus that your people will stay
3:08focused, and they will not miss the set,
3:12the Lord. We give you praise, honor, and
3:15glory in Jesus' name.
3:21And please be seated
3:24in the presence of the Lord.
3:27Want to share with you this morning
3:30the importance of you making strategic
3:33moves.
3:36Strategic moves. Making strategic moves.
3:44It's important that
3:46you understand the day and time that
3:49you're living in,
3:50the season that God has granted you.
3:55And as the scripture said, a house
4:00is built.
4:02How is a house built? The Bible says it
4:04is built
4:06by wisdom
4:09and becomes stronger through good sense.
4:14A house is not built by just the
4:17material
4:19that you used to build it.
4:21A house is not built just by the
4:24location of where you're building
4:27because they say location matters,
4:29right? It It all depends on where you
4:31build. Well, that will determine the
4:33value of that house.
4:35But according to scripture here, God is
4:37saying, "A house is built by wisdom and
4:40becomes strong through good sense." What
4:45makes a house strong so that when the
4:48wind and the storms of life will come
4:51against it and that house will stand, it
4:55is because of how the house is built,
4:57the structural foundation of the house.
5:00Remember the story in the Bible where we
5:04are told of a parable of two builders
5:07building their houses.
5:10And one built their house on sand, and
5:13the other
5:15on rock.
5:17And notice, both of them experienced the
5:20same storm.
5:22It wasn't a different storm that hit the
5:24guy who built his house on sand, and the
5:28other guy had a different storm hit his
5:31house
5:32when he built it on the rock.
5:35Both of them experienced the same storm.
5:39But after the storm, only one house was
5:42left standing, and that was the house
5:45that was built on rock. So, then you
5:48have to ask yourself the question,
5:51is it that your brother, your sister
5:54that's seated next to you or your
5:56neighbor, is it that they're
5:57experiencing different storms in life?
6:00Why Why they are advancing in life and
6:04you're not?
6:06Because if God is God, he you know, he's
6:09no respecter of persons, right? He
6:11doesn't prefer you over the other. We're
6:14all hit with the same experiences in
6:16life.
6:18In this room and people streaming right
6:20now, we're all hit with the same
6:22experiences.
6:25We're all prone to sicknesses. We're all
6:27prone to disease. We're all prone to
6:30uh you know, being challenged in our
6:32personality and in in in how we build
6:35our personal lives. We're challenged
6:38financially. We're challenged when it
6:40comes to our relationship, how to make
6:43our relationship healthy. We're We're
6:45challenged in our faith journey. We all
6:48experience the same storm, but how you
6:51build your life
6:54and what foundation you build it on will
6:57determine if you will withstand the
7:01storms of life. And then the Bible says,
7:04"Through wisdom, its rooms The rooms in
7:07the house Every segment, every part of
7:11your house, every part of your life,"
7:13the Bible says, "it is through
7:15knowledge, its rooms are filled with all
7:19sorts of precious riches and valuables."
7:23So, you really want to make your life
7:25count? You really want to make every
7:27area of your life, you know, your
7:30personal development, your
7:32relationships,
7:33your family, parenting, your finances,
7:37your business, you want to make all
7:39areas of your life valuable and filled
7:43with riches? Well, what's building it?
7:47Is it wisdom?
7:49Or is it just your own thoughts?
7:53And so, verse 6 is where I'll focus the
7:57sermon on. It says, "So, don't go to war
8:02without wise guidance." After all, life
8:05is a war.
8:09It is a war. When you woke up today, you
8:13are fighting your way through this day.
8:17You better believe it, the devil doesn't
8:19want you to succeed in this day. He
8:22doesn't want you to go through this week
8:25more than a conqueror. He doesn't want
8:28you to get through life hearing God say
8:31to you, "Well done, good and faithful
8:35servant." See what the devil wants? He
8:37set up traps in life, and as you live
8:40your life, he allows you to focus on
8:44things that are not so important. It is
8:47amazing how some of you, watch this,
8:50live all of your life discerning other
8:53people and focus no attention on
8:57building your own lives.
9:01You are so good at figuring out people's
9:05business.
9:07Oh, you are a master
9:10of concluding
9:12how people are living their lives. YOU
9:15KNOW EVERYBODY else's business. You know
9:18what's trending on social media. You
9:21know what's going on in your community,
9:24in the association meetings. You know
9:26every drama at the workplace, every dis-
9:30dysfunction in your family. You know
9:33who's sleeping with who. You know who's
9:35lying on who. You know who owes people
9:38money. YOU KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT
9:41EVERYBODY ELSE, BUT IF GOD WAS TO ASK
9:44YOU, "WHAT IS IT ABOUT YOUR LIFE? Do you
9:48know your next move? Do you know what
9:51God has planned for you next year?" You
9:54can't tell.
9:56Cuz you are a professional busybody.
10:02So,
10:04I am fully convinced
10:06that all of us are living in a season
10:09filled with opportunities that can help
10:12us make significant progress in all
10:17areas
10:19of our lives.
10:21The fact that you are faced with many
10:24challenges
10:26doesn't negate the fact that you can
10:29make improvements in your life.
10:33Just because you got problems,
10:35everybody's got problems.
10:37Everybody Everybody in your row,
10:40everybody in that room that you are
10:43streaming this service from, every one
10:45of us
10:47we're faced with challenges, but it
10:49doesn't nullify the fact that we have
10:53the ability to improve and move forward
10:59in God.
11:00We have the power to do that. And yes,
11:04you can improve your life by seeking
11:07the wisdom of God
11:11when it comes to how you should move and
11:14the moves that you should make.
11:16Life requires action on your part.
11:20And with every effort you make, Satan is
11:24plotting. Watch this. He's plotting to
11:27block you from succeeding at what he
11:30knows you are capable of doing.
11:36You think you're not capable of
11:39succeeding. You think you're not capable
11:42of becoming the man or the woman that
11:44God has called you to be,
11:47but Satan knows.
11:50He knows that you have the potential to
11:53be the best man that you can ever be.
11:56HE KNOWS THAT REGARDLESS OF YOUR PAST,
11:58YOUNG MAN, HE KNOWS IF YOU EVER GET IT
12:01TOGETHER, AND IF YOU EVER MAKE THE RIGHT
12:04MOVES in your life, HE KNOWS THAT YOU
12:07WILL REPAIR YOUR REPUTATION, AND YOU
12:09WILL SET YOURSELF UP FOR THE BETTER IN
12:12THE FUTURE. HE KNOWS IT,
12:14but he doesn't want you to make the
12:16move.
12:18He doesn't want YOU, YOUNG LADY, TO STEP
12:21OUT in faith and improve on the quality
12:24of YOUR LIFE, PUT GOD first in your
12:26life. HE DOESN'T WANT YOU TO MAKE
12:28IMPORTANT godly moves because the moment
12:32you do that, it moves you forward.
12:36So, therefore, HE IS GOING TO PLOT.
12:39And he's going to strategically place
12:42things in your life.
12:44And he's going to use people as
12:47stumbling blocks, and that IS WHY YOU
12:49CANNOT AFFORD IN THIS season of YOUR
12:52LIFE NOT TO PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT GOD IS
12:55DOING around you.
12:58You got to pay attention
13:00cuz Satan is plotting
13:02to block you. He's plotting to block
13:05you. So, as you move to the right, he's
13:07going to put something in front OF YOU
13:10TO BLOCK YOU, and if you're not patient,
13:13and if you keep functioning in your
13:15emotions, you're going to make quick
13:18moves, and you're going to sabotage
13:21your blessed future.
13:25So, the struggle for most of you is
13:27simply this.
13:30Whenever
13:31there are responsibilities
13:34in front of you, or God has presented an
13:37opportunity to you,
13:39somehow you struggle
13:42to decide
13:44what to do,
13:46and this is where
13:49you get anxious.
13:52Should I go to the left? Should I go to
13:55the right? Or should I just stand still?
13:59I
14:00W-
14:01When should I make this move? When
14:02should I make this financial decision?
14:05When should I move from this job? Or
14:06when should I go back to school? Or when
14:09W- When should When should I move out of
14:11a relationship? Or when should I move
14:12forward in the relationship? You see, w-
14:15When you're flustered into making
14:17decisions,
14:19then anxiety comes in, and I have to
14:21submit to you today, there's a whole lot
14:23of you in this building, and those of
14:26you streaming, your life is consumed
14:29with anxiety.
14:32You're anxious.
14:34And with that anxiety, YOU'RE NOT ABLE
14:37TO FUNCTION. YOU'RE not able to think
14:40during critical moments.
14:42So, like in the game of chess, the goal
14:46is to decide which opportunity TO TAKE
14:49ADVANTAGE OF, RIGHT? When to make moves
14:54so that you don't lose THE ABILITY TO
14:57ADVANCE. THAT'S THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF THE
14:59GAME.
15:01How do I make moves to advance?
15:05And some of you, you have made certain
15:08moves THAT YOU DID NOT consult God
15:11about, AND THE DEVIL WAS WAITING FOR YOU
15:14TO SCREW UP. HE WAS WAITING FOR YOU TO
15:16MAKE THAT BAD move because he knows if
15:18he can get YOU TO GET OUT OF THE WILL of
15:20God, ALL OF A SUDDEN, HE NOT ONLY TAKE
15:23OVER YOUR LIFE, HE TAKES OVER YOUR
15:24CHILDREN'S LIFE, HE TAKES OVER YOUR
15:25FINANCES, HE TAKES OVER YOUR MARRIAGE,
15:27HE TAKES OVER YOUR BUSINESS. IT'S A
15:29DOMINO EFFECT.
15:32AND I'M TELLING YOU, GOD SENT ME HERE
15:34TODAY TO TELL YOU HE'S GOT SO MUCH IN
15:37THE FUTURE IN STORE FOR YOU, AND NOW IS
15:39NOT THE TIME FOR YOU TO DROP THE BALL.
15:42NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR YOU TO FUMBLE
15:44THE BALL. THIS TIME YOU HAVE GOT TO WIN.
15:49Somebody say, "This time I'm going to
15:51win."
15:55You have to take advantage
15:57of the opportunity
15:59on when to move
16:02to buy a new car. I know it's simple.
16:05Pastor, stay out of my business.
16:09But remember, you make a wrong move, bam
16:12bam bam bam bam.
16:16So, you got to ask God, "When
16:18is it time for the me
16:21to buy a new car?"
16:24When to leave a job? When to leave a
16:26job?
16:27Some of you
16:29have left jobs that you should not have
16:32walked away from.
16:35Well, Pastor, you don't understand the
16:37hell I was going through on the job.
16:38Everybody's catching hell.
16:42Would you just look at your neighbor? I
16:43know some of you don't like to use the
16:44word hell, but hell exists. Would just
16:46look to your neighbor and say,
16:47"Everybody's catching hell."
16:50And those of you are honest, just say,
16:52"I got hell right now in my life.
16:54I'm going through hell right now."
16:58Everybody.
17:00Everybody.
17:03But you're walking out of the will of
17:05God prematurely.
17:08You got to ask God when to invest, when
17:10to walk away from a relationship
17:13that is draining you to the point OF YOU
17:17LOSING YOURSELF.
17:21Ask God when to walk away.
17:26And for every move you plan to make,
17:30Satan has already strategized
17:34on ways to stop you from reaching your
17:40full
17:42potential.
17:43Cuz you see, he wants you to function as
17:46an average person.
17:49And then you play the victim game.
17:53You're functioning as an average person.
17:55Yes, you know there's more to life than
17:58what you're living, but you're
18:00functioning on average. You're not the
18:02best woman that God has called you to
18:04be. You are certainly not the man.
18:07You're not living the life, and you're
18:09not exemplifying the life that God has
18:13put in you as a man.
18:16So, you're not at your best self. You're
18:18not at your
18:19full potential. You're just functioning
18:23as an average man. You are dating, and
18:28you're not even the best man
18:31to date.
18:34So, the woman is suffering,
18:37hurting,
18:39cuz she loves you,
18:42but yet still you're operating at 50%.
18:47You're a good woman,
18:49but you're NOT AT YOUR BEST because
18:52you're broken, and you're dealing with
18:54trauma that you're not willing to face.
18:58Therefore, the man WHO'S TRYING TO GET
19:01IT TOGETHER, WHO NEEDS A HELPER, BY THE
19:04WAY, CUZ THAT'S HOW GOD CREATED A WOMAN.
19:07WE MEN, WE ARE INCAPABLE
19:10OF FUNCTIONING WITHOUT A WOMAN.
19:13WE CANNOT DO IT. DON'T YOU BELIEVE A MAN
19:17WHO TELLS YOU, "I DON'T NEED NO WOMAN. I
19:19don't want no woman in my life. I CAN DO
19:21THAT ALL BY MYSELF." THAT'S A LIE.
19:26When God CREATED WOMAN, he created woman
19:30to help man. That is suggesting man
19:32can't do it alone. And all the sisters
19:36should be
19:42He can't do it alone.
19:45He needs a woman.
19:48But the problem is, as a woman, you're
19:50not at your best self.
19:53So, therefore, the relationship is
19:55hurting. It can't even graduate from
19:58dating to the honorable position, which
20:01is marriage, because you've got two
20:03people either one is not functioning at
20:06full capacity or both are functioning
20:10average.
20:13So, what has the potential to be great,
20:16what has the potential to make strategic
20:20moves
20:21to marriage,
20:23children,
20:25working together with two income,
20:28building an empire,
20:30BUILDING LEGACY
20:32TO THE POINT WHERE YOU MAY BECOME THE
20:35NEXT millionaire or the next BLESSED
20:38PERSON THAT BREAKS A GENERATIONAL CURSE
20:42OF POVERTY ON your family, but you
20:45couldn't
20:46because you never made the first correct
20:49move.
20:52Please listen today.
20:55So, let me say to you
20:58that you need a strategy
21:01on how to maximize your full potential.
21:05Let's always remember that we were born
21:07with the ability to finish well. You got
21:10to tell yourself that every day. I was
21:12born with the ability to finish well. I
21:15was born with the ability to max out my
21:20potential. God wired us
21:23to get through the valleys. I don't care
21:26how low you are, God has wired you to
21:29get through the valleys. He has wired
21:32you to move mountains, to move
21:35mountains. There will always be
21:37obstacles in your way, but he has wired
21:40you to move mountains. He has equipped
21:43us to reach our full potential.
21:46And I must tell you that Satan is
21:48determined
21:50not to let you be at your best
21:54because it messes up, watch this, his
21:57fake news propaganda.
22:02You better believe that Satan is
22:03spreading rumors about you. He's
22:05spreading rumors about you
22:07to the prince of the air or to the
22:09principalities of the air, I should say.
22:11He's spreading rumors and those rumors
22:14that he's talking about, he's spreading
22:16the lies that you are incapable of
22:19making moves that will get you to your
22:22best self. Oh, you're not going to make
22:25it.
22:26That's why That's why you're hearing all
22:28these negative thoughts. You'll never
22:30come out to be anything. Look at your
22:32situation. Look at the family you came
22:34out of. Look at the struggles you have
22:36before you. Look at the circumstances
22:38you that you're dealing with right now.
22:40He's And then he's telling other people
22:43He's telling other people she's not
22:44going to make it. He's telling other
22:45people lies about you and so forth. And
22:48those other people are agents. They are
22:51agents of the devil. So, they come Now,
22:53he uses them to come into your
22:55environment. He He will have them to
22:58tell you directly or indirectly. They'll
23:00go and tell friend and somebody and then
23:02the news comes back around to you now
23:05because the whole goal is to diminish
23:08your ability to believe that you can do
23:12all things through Christ who gives you
23:15the strength. It's a strategy.
23:19He's planning to take you out. So, you
23:21better believe that Satan is spreading
23:23that rumor. And you see, he knows if
23:26you're at your best,
23:28that's the place you are crowned a king
23:32or a queen.
23:35He knows.
23:37LIKE IN THE GAME OF CHESS, THE ULTIMATE
23:40GOAL IS TO GET TO THE TOP. IT'S TO
23:43DOMINATE. IT'S TO TAKE TERRITORIES SO
23:46THAT YOU CAN BE AT YOUR BEST, YOUR FULL
23:50POTENTIAL BECAUSE AT YOUR FULL
23:52POTENTIAL, YOU'RE ABLE TO MANEUVER
23:54THROUGH LIFE MUCH BETTER THAN AN
23:56ORDINARY PERSON. WHY DO YOU THINK IN THE
23:58GAME OF CHESS YOUR OPPONENT ALWAYS WANTS
24:01TO OVERTHROW YOU BECAUSE HE DOESN'T WANT
24:04YOU TO GET TO THE TOP. THE MOMENT YOU
24:06ARE CROWNED KING OR QUEEN, OH, IT'S A
24:09GAME CHANGER, BABY. It's a game changer.
24:13YOU CAN CONTROL YOUR LIFE BETTER.
24:19AND YOU'RE NEVER GOING TO BE AT YOUR
24:20BEST IF YOU KEEP OPERATING AS AVERAGE.
24:26TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR DESTINY. TAKE
24:29CONTROL OF YOUR FUTURE. TAKE control of
24:31your life. Cuz once you operate with the
24:34kingdom mindset,
24:37that will empower you to make moves in
24:40your life
24:41that will allow you to outsmart
24:45the devil's plans.
24:49And I'm telling you today,
24:51you need to stay awake.
24:54You need to stay awake. I don't know who
24:58this word is for.
25:01God's got you at a place and there are
25:04multiple decisions you have to make and
25:08you are just confused and anxiety is
25:12setting in and should I go to the left?
25:14Should I go to the right? What move
25:16should you know S- Some Let
25:19Some battles you just need to leave
25:21alone. Some things don't touch it. In
25:24the game of chess, there's a time when
25:27you see, well, I I I I can make that
25:30move. I can make that move and I can
25:32make that move and capture that,
25:34whatever it is, but you Listen to me,
25:37sweetheart. I know I know if I get that
25:41man, if I can get this man, this man
25:44over here, then I feel I can get to the
25:47top, BUT IT'S A TRAP BECAUSE YOU MAY GET
25:50THE MAN, BUT NOW YOU POSITION YOURSELF
25:53FOR THE DEVIL TO bam bam bam bam TAKE
25:57EVERYTHING THAT you've worked for. Stay
26:00in the will of God. Hit somebody and
26:02tell them stay in the will of God.
26:04Stay in the will OF GOD. DON'T MOVE
26:08UNTIL HE TELLS YOU TO MOVE.
26:11WHO AM I PREACHING TO?
26:14STAY IN THE WILL OF GOD. I DON'T CARE IF
26:16ANYBODY'S LAUGHING AT YOU. I DON'T CARE
26:18WHAT THEY'RE SAYING ABOUT YOU. DON'T
26:20MOVE UNTIL GOD TELLS YOU TO MOVE. AND
26:24WHEN HE TELL YOU TO MOVE, MOVE.
26:26Move
26:27and TAKE OVER TERRITORIES.
26:31MOVE IN THE WILL OF GOD.
26:36It's a plot. It's a plot of the enemy.
26:40So,
26:42you've allowed the devil to have taken
26:44much of your territories
26:47over the years and
26:50it's time that you ask God for
26:53a strategy
26:56to get maximum
26:58strength,
27:00speed,
27:01and agility.
27:03Maximum strength, speed, agility.
27:07I know you don't feel like a king or a
27:09queen right now.
27:11I know you don't feel it. I know, but
27:13but the call of God is already upon you.
27:17The position of a queen is up on you.
27:22The position of a king is already up on
27:26you and God will strategically
27:30move things out of your life so that you
27:34can get in position. And I sense by the
27:37power of the Holy Spirit, God is moving
27:40some things that have stood in your way
27:44for years, for months. God is getting
27:47ready to position you so you can become
27:51king, so that you can become a queen.
27:54And I don't know who this word is for.
27:57You are not an AVERAGE PERSON. IT'S TIME
28:00YOU ELEVATE. IT'S TIME YOU GO TO THE
28:01next level. It's time to level up. It's
28:04time to level up. I DON'T CARE WHO DON'T
28:06LIKE YOU. I DON'T CARE WHO DON'T LIKE
28:09HOW GOD IS WORKING IN YOUR LIFE. LET
28:12THEM WATCH YOU GET BLESSED.

28:18HERE TODAY. LET THEM WATCH GOD BLESS
28:21YOU. MOVE WHEN GOD SAYS MOVE.
28:26MOVE.
28:29SO, ladies and gentlemen,
28:32I know you don't feel
28:34like you're in the right position, but
28:36you
28:37need to make strategic moves
28:40to get in position with God's will for
28:42your life.
28:44And when you get in position,
28:46the right position, the oil of the
28:48anointing
28:51of kingship
28:54will rest upon your life and empower you
28:57to make moves that will conquer
28:59territories. 1 Peter chapter 2 verse 9
29:02it tells us, but you are a chosen
29:06generation,
29:08a royal priesthood,
29:11a holy nation, a peculiar people. Wait a
29:15minute. Stop there. A peculiar people. A
29:18peculiar people. So, I am sorry if you
29:22are talking ABOUT ME. I AM sorry if
29:24you're criticizing me. I am SORRY IF
29:28YOU'RE MAKING STATEMENTS LIKE, "WHO DO
29:30YOU think he is?" YOU MAY NOT KNOW, BUT
29:34I KNOW who I am.
29:37I KNOW WHO I BELONG TO. I'M A SON OF A
29:41MOST HIGH GOD. I'M PECULIAR. I'M ROYAL.
29:45THERE'S SOMETHING IN MY BLOOD THAT IS
29:48SPECIAL AND I'M SORRY I GOT TO ACT LIKE
29:51IT. I CAN'T ACT LIKE A WIMP. I CAN'T ACT
29:54LIKE I DON'T KNOW WHO I AM. I GOT TO ACT
29:56LIKE I KNOW THAT I'M GOD'S CHILD.
30:00I GOT THE POWER TO DO WHATEVER HE HAS
30:03CALLED ME TO DO. SOMEBODY OUGHT TO GIVE
30:05HIM A PRAISE IN THE HOUSE TODAY.
30:10WOULD YOU JUST HIT THREE PEOPLE AND TELL
30:11THEM KNOW WHO YOU ARE. COME ON. SLAP
30:14SOMEBODY AND TELL THEM KNOW WHO YOU ARE.
30:17YOU GOT TO KNOW YOU'RE SPECIAL.
30:19I DON'T CARE IF THEY DON'T LIKE IT. YOU
30:21GOT TO KNOW YOU'RE SPECIAL.
30:24YOU GOT TO know you got TO KNOW YOU GOT
30:25TO KNOW GOD'S ANOINTING IS ON YOUR LIFE.
30:30YOU ARE SPECIAL.
30:32YOU ARE SPECIAL.
30:35You are special.
30:37You are special.
30:38You are special.
30:41I'm going to say it to you get it in
30:42YOUR HEAD. YOU ARE SPECIAL.
30:45YOUR SITUATION DOESN'T DICTATE TO YOU
30:48WHO YOU ARE. BEFORE YOU WERE FORMED IN
30:51YOUR MOTHER'S WOMB, GOD KNEW YOU,
30:54PREORDAINED YOU, anointed you.
30:58Nobody can change that.
31:01You are special.
31:05By the way,
31:07IT IS GOD'S WILL FOR YOU TO operate
31:11at 100%.
31:13Not 50, not 60,
31:16not 90, not 99 and a half, but 100%. He
31:21has chosen you to make strategic moves
31:25that will confirm that he is with you.
31:30TO CONFIRM THAT HE'S WITH YOU.
31:33THAT IS WHY WHEN YOU MAKE A MOVE BASED
31:37ON GOD AND GOD SAYS MOVE AND DO THIS,
31:40FOLK WON'T UNDERSTAND IT, BUT THE
31:42RESULTS WILL PROVE LATER OH BOY, she's
31:45in THE WILL OF GOD. NOW LOOK WHAT THE
31:48LORD HAS DONE. IT IS MARVELOUS IN OUR
31:52EYES. WHY? BECAUSE YOU ARE DOING it
31:55based on the will of God.
31:59SO GOD HAS CREATED YOU TO BE AT YOUR
32:01BEST SELF.
32:03Someone who
32:05plays God as their top priority, someone
32:08who has discovered their reason to be on
32:12the earth. And this is where I have to
32:15submit to you today. If you don't know
32:17why you are here, please do not live
32:20another day without asking God, God,
32:24PLEASE REVEAL TO ME WHY I am here. The
32:27moment you understand your purpose,
32:31it's a game changer.
32:34And someone
32:36who also will not allow anything to
32:39prevent them from making moves
32:41that will
32:44get them to move forward in the future
32:48into the things that God has called them
32:50to be. So every one of you
32:52should desire to make big steps
32:58to the next level in life.
33:01This is where I'm trying to conclude the
33:03message.
33:05That you have to begin to dream big.
33:13I didn't ask you about your problems.
33:18We've already concluded everybody's got
33:21problems.
33:25Is there anybody in this room that don't
33:27have any problems?
33:29Please don't stand because we're about
33:31to hit you.
33:37You may get hurt in this building today.
33:39I promise you.
33:40We'll body slam you to the ground.
33:46We all have problems.
33:50But what you need to do is
33:53take big steps, man.
33:56And you better believe that space is
33:57already available to you to make those
34:01moves
34:02so that you can position yourself, watch
34:05this, to take territories.
34:10But you got to hear God, listen for his
34:13instructions,
34:14and don't make moves without
34:19him giving you instructions,
34:22and you got to know his voice.
34:25If you don't know his voice,
34:27you could make a move, like I said,
34:31and damage your life for years.
34:34Or you should have made a move,
34:38but because of procrastination and fear,
34:41you missed your moment.
34:45Because I want you to know that deep
34:46inside of you, you have the DNA to go to
34:49the next level.
34:50Joshua 1:9 tells us, "Have I not
34:54commanded you?
34:57Be strong and courageous. Do not be
35:00frightened and do not be dismayed, for
35:03the Lord your God is with you some of
35:07the times."
35:10That's not what the Bible said.
35:13The Lord your God is with you wherever
35:17you go.
35:19When you make moves,
35:21God is going with you.
35:24But here's the challenge for you when it
35:26comes to you going to the next level.
35:28You cannot reach the next level
35:32without being attacked by forces
35:36that don't want to see you get there.
35:41And here's where you cannot afford
35:44to say that you are weak
35:46and you're incapable of winning the
35:48battle, the battle, the battle. Remember
35:50the scripture tells us that
35:53you are not supposed to go to war
35:56without wise counseling and guidance.
36:00Why you living your life then
36:03not knowing
36:05what decisions you should make?
36:09Why?
36:11I submit to you
36:13like myself, so many of you
36:22you too old now
36:26to be making bad moves.
36:31Can I just be real?
36:34All the young people just laugh at us.
36:36But if there's a person in your row
36:40who's a little bit up there in age, I
36:42won't tell you what age that will be.
36:45You know if you're running out of time
36:47or not.
36:48But when you're old, you do not have
36:52time
36:55to be making bad moves.
37:03You you don't
37:06You don't have time to be saying
37:07negative negative things out of your
37:09mouth. That's why Joel 3:10 says, "Let
37:12the weak
37:14say
37:16strong."
37:17Power of your words.
37:20Well, I'm weak, you know, and I don't
37:21know if I'm going to make it and other
37:22No no no no.
37:25He didn't say you ought to deny YOUR
37:27CURRENT STATUS. YOU'RE WEAK.
37:30BUT YOUR STATUS SHOULD NOT CONTROL YOUR
37:33CONFESSION.
37:37YEAH, I I feel weak. I I understand I'm
37:40going through a situation now, BUT MY
37:43WORDS are going to be different from my
37:47current position. I know where I'm
37:49going. I know this will pass. I know I'm
37:53SOMEWHERE IN THE FUTURE and I look a
37:56whole lot better than I look RIGHT NOW.
37:59I KNOW GOD'S ABOUT to change things in
38:02my life.
38:04I'm speaking
38:06into my future.
38:09So Satan knows if you perform at your
38:11best,
38:12you will make significant progress. Yes,
38:15you will.
38:16He knows
38:18you will have the ability to conquer and
38:21and and capture, if you will, everything
38:23that God
38:25has laid out for you throughout your
38:27lifetime.
38:29And so I'm sent here today by God
38:33to challenge you to go to the next level
38:35in your thinking,
38:37in your worship, in your prayer life,
38:41your study of God's word,
38:43because there are so many victories
38:48awaiting you.
38:50Many of you have prayed and you have
38:52read the word of God. You are currently
38:55trying your best to be in alignment
38:59with God's laws, but you can't seem to
39:03move
39:04from your current status
39:07of fear,
39:09losses,
39:11pain,
39:13anger,
39:15frustration,
39:18and lack.
39:20You can't seem to move from there
39:23to a place where God will empower you to
39:26begin to conquer things, but may I
39:29suggest to you today
39:32that the one thing that may be missing
39:34in your life,
39:36it's a strategy.
39:40That's it.
39:43You plan to go shopping all the time,
39:46even when you don't have money."
39:52You plan to do all kinds of stuff, but
39:55when it comes to planning, watch this,
39:57your future in God,
40:00you don't do it.
40:03See, I'm telling you today that you need
40:04to you need a a strategy to conquer and
40:08dominate life's challenges.
40:12How do I make moves? There's so many of
40:14you today
40:16You We're getting closer to the end of
40:19this year
40:20and there's some moves you must make
40:23and you're confused.
40:25You don't know what to do.
40:28And in this month of leveling up and
40:30going to the next level,
40:33God is saying to you, he's positioned
40:36you
40:38in a blessed place,
40:40even though
40:43obstacles around you,
40:46but you have to have a strategy.
40:48Start thinking.
40:53Okay, if I do that,
40:55how would that affect that that that?
40:59Or if I do that, maybe I'll conquer that
41:02that that that.
41:05You need a strategy.
41:07I'm telling you today that you need a
41:09strategy to conquer
41:11the challenges of life.
41:14And hopefully that your plan of action
41:16is Christ-centered.
41:19Many of you are finally understanding
41:20why you have not been able to operate at
41:23your best. It's because you have been
41:25operating
41:27as average or below average
41:30and not
41:32as a kingdom citizen.
41:36See, you must understand the key to
41:37winning in life
41:39and to have the edge over the devil
41:42requires you to have a strategy.
41:47You need to know
41:48where
41:50and when
41:51to move
41:53to get there.
41:55Every day God's asking you to pray about
41:59the spirit of discernment to make godly
42:01moves to make progress in your life.
42:06To plan out a strategy,
42:08you need to have faith. You need to
42:11understand the goals. You need to
42:14understand that you need to stay
42:15focused. You need to have, watch this, a
42:17big struggle that all of us have. You
42:20need to also have patience.
42:23Then you need to
42:25have an execution plan. Just don't talk
42:29about what you're going to do. Just do
42:33it.
42:35Just do it, man.
42:37You also need to constantly re-evaluate
42:41your plans
42:43to see how you're making progress.
42:47You see, it's time to analyze where you
42:48are in life. Where are you in life?
42:51Where are you?
42:52Discern the moment. Discern the season.
42:56Discern what God is telling you.
42:58And please don't make Please, listen to
43:00me. Hey hey hey hey hey.
43:02Listen.
43:04Please don't make another bad move in
43:06your life, man.
43:09You've had too many losses.
43:14You know you made that bad move last
43:16year. You know you did it 5 years ago.
43:20Some of you made the bad move last
43:22night.
43:28Just last night.
43:31Don't make that bad move anymore.
43:35I urge you to stop making moves
43:39that you did not pray about.
43:42Stop it.
43:43In this season of your life, YOU NEED A
43:45STRATEGY FOR HOW YOU WILL DEVELOP AND
43:48IMPROVE your relationship with God, how
43:51you will improve your personal life,
43:55how you're going to build wealth,
43:59and how you're going to maintain and
44:01keep your relationships
44:04healthy.
44:06Cuz Satan will strategically place
44:09obstacles in your life
44:11so that you will never make progress to
44:13achieve your goals.
44:16So finally, I want to leave you with
44:18these six things
44:20that you should figure out and work out
44:22to develop a strategy for your life.
44:24Number one,
44:26how you will align yourself
44:29with God's plan for your life.
44:31How you going to align yourself? What
44:32are you going to do
44:34to get into the will of God? Number two,
44:38you need to develop and work on a
44:40strategy
44:42to discover your full potential.
44:47Is the career that you're in
44:53Is that what God designed for you?
44:57Maybe that's the reason why you're not
44:58happy in it.
45:02What about doing things, developing a
45:04plan to max your full potential? Number
45:07three,
45:08you got to develop a strategy
45:10to build in
45:12healthy family.
45:15A healthy family.
45:18Why are you constantly allowing the
45:20devil to come into your family and and
45:22to have a domino effect on your family?
45:27To perpetuate
45:29the generational curse.
45:32Need a a strategy also to build healthy
45:35relationships.
45:38But you have good friends and best
45:40friends
45:42and so forth.
45:44That maybe even in your dating process
45:47you'll find a good man, a good woman.
45:49That you develop a strategy to creating
45:52wealth wealth.
45:55I mean, you can rebuke me all you want
45:57and say, "Well, you don't want preachers
45:59to talk about money and and and we
46:01should just preach the gospel." Oh, so
46:03you just want Christians to be broke for
46:05the rest of our lives, right? And you
46:07want people who are not Christians and
46:09so forth to have all the money in the
46:11world.
46:13When our God tells us the earth is his
46:17and the fullness thereof, no good thing
46:19will he withhold from us. So you're
46:21telling me he doesn't want us to prosper
46:24and he doesn't want us to be a blessing?
46:28How are we going to be a blessing if
46:29we're not blessed?
46:35We need a strategy
46:38on how
46:39to out-strategize
46:43the enemy.
46:45I'll close with this. Could you bring
46:46out those two chairs for me, please?
46:52Do me a favor, put them over here. Put
46:54those two stools with me.
46:57Just put them there.
46:59Thank you. Just put them there. Thank
47:01you.
47:01Where are the two individuals? Can they
47:03come out here? Please come out here and
47:05be seated.
47:10I don't know where you are placed in
47:11life.
47:13I really don't know.
47:16I have no idea where God has placed you.
47:20I don't know where you're seated.
47:22I don't know what drama you're dealing
47:24with.
47:25I don't know.
47:28What I do know,
47:31you have to move from where you are.
47:35Like in the game of chess,
47:39it's all about
47:41moving
47:42to the top.
47:46You lose some,
47:47fine.
47:50But losing some is not as important as
47:55advancing.
47:58Because the goal is to advance to the
48:01top.
48:03And
48:05I hear God calling calling calling
48:08people right now. He's saying to you,
48:10"It's time for you to move." He's He's
48:12He's He's He's call Even in this sermon
48:14you're watching,
48:16you're seated
48:18and he's telling you now,
48:21"You need to make strategic moves."
48:24What's the word? Strategic.
48:28You have to figure out how you're going
48:32to move.
48:34But how can you move
48:37without specific instructions?
48:40Right?
48:42Each of you will find yourself as one of
48:45these two individuals today and I
48:47promise you,
48:50the moves you're making
48:52are either going to
48:54cost you severely
48:58or it's going to position you for
49:01greatness.
49:03Watch this.
49:05You're either one.
49:08And you're in a season. Come.
49:11Come.
49:14Come.
49:15Stop. Stop right there.
49:18Hold it in your hand.
49:19Wait a minute.
49:22Both of them heard me
49:24say "Come."
49:28All of us are hearing God say, "Come."
49:31Why she still seated? And I know you're
49:34thinking,
49:35"But she's not moving.
49:38She's not moving.
49:40He heard the same words she heard,
49:42"Come."
49:44AND YOU'RE SAYING, HE'S STRATEGIC, HE'S
49:47WISE, he picked up his chair, and he
49:50start moving. Here's the problem with
49:52this brother.
49:56His anxiety
49:59to want to leave where he is at
50:04from the voice of coming, he never
50:07asked "Well okay God
50:10you're telling me to come, how should I
50:11come, what should I come with?"
50:14Like Abraham, when God said to Abraham,
50:16"Abraham, I want you to leave your
50:19family, your place that you're familiar
50:21with, and I want to take you to a
50:23place."
50:25God didn't tell him where he was going.
50:28The big mistake Abraham made
50:32was when he left the place of
50:34revelation. He heard God say to him,
50:37"Come." He took a lot with him. I
50:39wonder, what are you picking up in your
50:41life
50:42you have no business taking with you to
50:45the next level?
50:48HERE'S THE DANGER WITH ABRAHAM.
50:52HE RESPONDED TO GOD. OKAY, GOD TOLD ME
50:54TO COME, I'M COMING, I'M GOING, GOD, but
50:57he took his nephew Lot with him. What
50:59was the effect of that?
51:02Please, hear me.
51:05IT COST ABRAHAM
51:09TO PICK UP STUFF AND PEOPLE HE HAD NO
51:12BUSINESS CARRYING WITH HIM. HE TOOK HIS
51:16NEPHEW, and it turned OUT THAT HIS OWN
51:19BLOOD HATED HIM AND CREATED PROBLEMS IN
51:24HIS LIFE WHEN IT COMES to his property.
51:30HOW MANY TRAUMA AND PROBLEMS HAVE YOU
51:34CREATED IN YOUR LIFE
51:37because you don't have a plan,
51:40and you don't ask God
51:42to make the plan plain for you?
51:46What I love about this young lady,
51:48she heard, "Come."
51:51But, she's so flustered,
51:54not certain.
51:56She's made so many moves before
51:59and pick up so many stuff she ain't got
52:01no business picking up.
52:05And at this juncture at her life,
52:08she rather stay right where she is at
52:13until God gives her clarity.
52:17It's called strategic moves. Oh,
52:19somebody ought to give God some praise
52:21in the house today.
52:27I want you to bow your heads right where
52:29you are. Thank you, both of you. Thank
52:30you. Bow your heads. I'm going to pray.
52:35Then I receive the seed.
52:39God wants somebody to make some
52:41important moves, and you've been pushed,
52:43you've
52:44you felt like,
52:47"God, yes, I know there's greater,
52:50there's better for me,
52:52and I really need to move from where I'm
52:54at God
52:56but I'm scared, God.
52:58I'm uncertain.
53:01Give me a plan." I don't know who you
53:03are today.
53:05You could be streaming.
53:08But, do me a favor.
53:10This is only going to take about 5
53:12minutes. It's really only going to take
53:14about 5 minutes.
53:16Cuz I really felt impressed of the Lord
53:21to help some of you
53:24to move from where you are, but here's
53:27the big thing,
53:28you're going to have to lay away the
53:30dead weights.
53:33This move that you're going to make,
53:36hey, hey, young lady,
53:38you're going to have to do it by
53:39yourself.
53:41Sir, you can't take nobody with you.
53:45This time, it is you and God.
53:50It's you and God.
53:52You and God who will make these
53:54strategic moves. You say, "Pastor,
53:57when I tell you I needed that word

54:05Don't hesitate, wherever you are, rush
54:09down this stage right now,
54:11and I want to pray
54:13that you begin to make strategic moves.
54:16Remember, nobody leave if you don't have
54:17to.
54:19I want to receive the seed, it's very
54:21important, but I must pray for these
54:22people first.
54:24This is such an important hour. Do me a
54:27favor, it's only going to take about 5
54:29minutes
54:30that you're going to come moving
54:32forward, moving forward. Come on. Come

56:20I'm about to pray for you and with you,
56:24but I need you to hear this.
56:28Your future is in your hands, nobody
56:31else's hands.
56:33Got to believe this.
56:34The demonstration, as simple as it may
56:37look,
56:39it's a reality in many of our lives.
56:44You have to make a move.
56:46Listen.
56:49How dare you let this year close,
56:53and you still at the same position?
56:57And I hate to tell you, how dare you let
56:59the year close and you be less than what
57:01you're currently at?
57:04It's time to level up.
57:06It's time to go to the next level,
57:08but you have to ask God for a strategy.
57:12What should I do? Cuz some of you are in
57:14a really difficult position.
57:17Difficult position.
57:20Cuz one bad move
57:23will make the enemy overthrow in many
57:27areas of your life.
57:29That's why you need to ask God for a
57:30plan.
57:33A plan that will will just outsmart the
57:36devil.
57:37Outsmart the devil.
57:40Somebody right now, there's so many
57:42things coming at you. The enemy has
57:45targeted so many stuff at you. He has
57:47even assigned people who are trying to
57:51cut you down. I don't know who it is.
57:53Somebody has already texted you and say
57:57you will never ever come out to be
57:59anything. But, God sent me here today to
58:02tell you he's going to give you a
58:03strategy that when they see you in the
58:06future, they're not going to believe
58:08that's you.
58:11They're not GOING TO BELIEVE IT.
58:16BUT, YOU HAVE TO
58:18let go of the baggages.
58:21Please, hear me.
58:24Some of you are carrying TOO MANY PEOPLE
58:28ON YOUR BACK.
58:33And the devil IS TRICKING YOU AND TELL
58:35YOU, "WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT? You a
58:36Christian." And they use that Christian
58:38card on you.
58:42Cuz you're a Christian.
58:44They want to use you.
58:47And here it is, YOU CAN'T EVEN SURVIVE,
58:52AND YOU'RE CARRYING people on your back,
58:55and you're weighing down your life and
58:57your future. You better let them people
58:59go. It is not being mean, let them go.
59:04Cut them off.
59:06Cut those chains. Cut those cords.
59:10You're in a season right now. I'm
59:12telling you, it may sound crazy, it may
59:15sound mean, but you're in a season right
59:17now. You don't have time for people to
59:21drag you down to their level to have a
59:23conversation. Baby, if I'm going to come
59:26down here to you, it's one intention is
59:29to bring you up. Now, if you want to
59:30stay down
59:32bye.

61:06Lift your hands. Father, I thank you.
61:09And you have spoken to us today
61:13to develop a strategy
61:16so we can make godly moves. I pray for
61:19these people who are down in the aisles
61:21and those who are in front here.
61:24By the power of the Holy Spirit, you
61:26wanted me to pray for them. God, you
61:27know every person's situation.
61:30There's a man or woman crying out to you
61:32right now
61:33and they really, really want to advance
61:36in their lives.
61:38And you sent me here today to encourage
61:40them that yes, their future is already
61:43set, but they have to move.
61:47They have to make the decision. Father,
61:49I thank you
61:50that somebody is getting bold today and
61:52somebody is going to begin to strategize
61:56and somebody is going to outsmart the
61:58devil. And God, I can't wait to see what
62:01they are called to be. I can't wait to
62:04see what their future looks like. I
62:06can't wait to see the doors you're going
62:08to begin to open for them. I can't wait
62:11for you for to to see how their life
62:13will advance. God, thank you. Thank you.
62:16Thank you. I thank you that somebody is
62:19getting rid of Lot. Lot, Lot who yes was
62:22connected to them, but God Lot was
62:25robbing them. Lot was envious and
62:28jealous over what they've got. But
62:30you're giving them a plan to outsmart
62:33the devil right now in the name of
62:35Jesus. And I thank you that your people
62:37are blessed, that they're anointed,
62:39they're full of power in the Holy
62:41Spirit.
62:43And we give you praise that it is done.
62:47And so today, as I release them
62:50that they'll go into the week knowing
62:53who they are
62:55that they're kings and queens
62:58and that should they should keep that
63:00standard up every day regardless of the
63:02circumstances around them. I thank you
63:05that you're surrounding them with the
63:06right people, the right church to
63:09empower them so that their faith journey
63:11become more meaningful.
63:13And we thank you for it. Now, Father
63:16we've heard the word, we have worshipped
63:18and you have blessed us.
63:21We went out as believers, believers.
63:25You've challenged us to give and to
63:27support your work.
63:29I just pray somebody watching today,
63:31somebody in this room
63:34would do what is their reasonable
63:36service to you and say I've got to honor
63:38God
63:40by making sure I have these doors remain
63:43open.
63:44Let this platform
63:46remains alive so that people can stream
63:50it to hear messages like this again in
63:52the future.
63:53And therefore, we're going to give based
63:56on what you've blessed us with and as
63:57you've pumped us and pushed us to give
64:00and sow special seed today.
64:03I pray someone will make a strategic
64:06move by putting you to the test and say
64:09God, I'm going to honor you. I feel in
64:11my spirit that there's a specific seed
64:13I'm going to give and I need to give it
64:15to set my future up to believe you for
64:19great things. So, I thank you for the
64:21seed that we're going to receive in
64:23Jesus' mighty name. Amen. Come on, if
64:26you receive it, give God praise.
