Our session today is going to be focusing on the theme Rediscovering Kingdom Citizenship Authority.

We’re going to be dealing with understanding the power of civic rights. These terms probably have no connection to your religious experience because you probably came from a religious background in your church where such words like civic and rights are not a part of the sermons. I wouldn’t even talk about the word citizenship. We are literally focused so much on membership we know very little about citizenship.

In other words, we are more committed to obeying Sha’ul than obeying Yahusha. We get our gospel from the apostle Sha’ul instead of getting it from Yahusha. We quote Sha’ul more than Yahusha. Sha’ul is not the source. Yahusha Ha’Mashiach is the source.

So we’re going to focus specifically then on law-abiding citizenship.

There’s a term you know well in your secular society: law-abiding citizens. This is a principle in countries.

Every one of you wants to have power and authority, but I’m going to give you the secret right now to power and authority in a country.

Power and authority in any nation come from two words:

Citizenship and law.

Citizenship is a product of a constitution.

Law is a product of a constitution.

But law is created to protect the citizen of the constitution to have rights to the promises in the constitution.

Law is very important.

And it’s law and citizenship that give you authority.

I’m going to prove that today.

First we have to clear up something in religious people’s minds.

Not you — the one right behind you.

Religious people need to change their thinking.

They must repent.

First of all let me state that the Bible is not about religion.

The Bible is about a national state.

Write this down please.

The Bible is about a national state.

That state is called the Kingdom of Shamayim.

It is a state.

We read in the Bible in the last session a literal statement that is made by the scriptures which says they were looking for a country — a heavenly one (Hebrews).

Number two.

Yahusha Ha’Mashiach came to restore the colony of the state of heaven on earth.

A state is a nation.

A nation is a country.

A kingdom is a state and a country ruled by a king.

Only kingdoms have colonies.

I was born in one in 1954.

A colony is a distant territory controlled by a kingdom and ruled by the king from a distance.

I lived in one until 1973.

We hardly ever saw the king we were under.

We hardly ever saw the queen we were under.

But every day we sang to them.

Little kids in school we had to sing to the king and queen every day.

And we sang songs like this:

“Yahuah save our gracious king

Long live our noble queen

Yahuah save the queen”

Born to rule over us.

Righteous and glorious.

Long to reign over us.

Yahuah save the king.

We had to sing it every morning.

I grew up in a colony.

This is why you don’t need to see Yahusha to sing to Him.

Even though He’s far away right now seated at the right hand of power, you are still required to sing to Him every morning.

That’s a colony.

In 1973 we declared independence from our kingdom.

When we did that, the white man who was a governor from England — who was the personification of the king and queen in our country — who lived among us not far from my house in a big pink house with a big wall — he was the queen and king’s representative in our country.

Every single second he lived with us.

But he was from the throne room of England.

And the day we declared independence instantly he became illegal and he had to go back quickly to England.

When you declare independence from a kingdom, the governor has to leave.

Elohim sent a Governor to earth.

Matter of fact, the first person to come to a colony sent by a king is the governor.

Then the king sends his citizens to live there to bring the culture to the place.

The first person Elohim sent to earth was the Governor.

It’s in your Bible.

Bereshith (Genesis) 1:2

The first person that came to earth was the Ruach Ha’Qodesh.

And the reason why the Governor comes to the colony is to bring order and to bring the kingdom’s culture and laws and values to the territory.

The Spirit of Elohim moved upon the earth.

Why?

He’s the Governor.

Then the citizens came in verse 26.

“Let us make man,” Elohim says, “in our own image and let them dominate the planet.”

The Ruach Ha’Qodesh was here before you.

And the Bible says when Adam declared independence from Elohim in chapter 3 the Spirit of Elohim could no longer strive with man.

He went back to heaven.

And earth became an independent state without Elohim.

Elohim calls it sheep going astray each one to their own way.

Yahusha calls it a prodigal son leaving his family demanding his inheritance.

But when Adam and Chavah declared independence from Elohim in Bereshith 3, Elohim’s immediate response was:

“I have a plan.”

He said to the one who instigated the independence — HaSatan — He said:

“I’ll make you a promise.

I’m coming back to that territory Myself.

And the same woman you used to destroy this situation, I’m going to use the same woman.

And I’m going to come into her womb Myself.

I’m going to come back to the territory as a King Myself.

I’m going to take back My territory Myself.

And I’m going to crush your head.”

He says, “Myself.”

I’m coming to restore the colony.

The state of heaven on earth.

That’s why Yahusha came.

He never came here to start a religion.

He came here to bring a country and a government back.

That’s why He had to be filled with the Ruach Ha’Qodesh.

The Ruach Ha’Qodesh is the Governor.

Let me tell you who Yahusha Ha’Mashiach is in one sentence:

Yahusha Ha’Mashiach is the King bringing the Governor back to the territory.

There cannot be any colony without a Governor.




Yahusha Ha’Mashiach really didn’t come to earth mainly to die on the stake, and we have made that the issue. What earth lost was the Governor. Think for a minute.

So Yahusha’s number one goal was not the execution stake. His number one goal was to get the Governor back in the territory.

When you are doing an assignment, you don’t leave until you are finished. Am I right?

So Yahusha came to earth. He started a ministry. He lasted three and a half years. He healed the sick, but He stayed. He raised the dead, but He stayed. He cast out demons, but He didn’t leave earth. He cleansed a leper, but He didn’t leave. Why? Work’s not finished.

He went on trial. He stayed.

He was judged as a criminal. His judgment was not a religious judgment. He wasn’t against religion at all. As a matter of fact, if you study His trial, His trial was about insurrection. It means crime against a state. He wasn’t tried as a priest or a prophet.

As a matter of fact, when He first went to Pilate, Pilate said to the religious people, “Why did you bring Him to me? If He’s a prophet, you all judge Him. That’s your court.”

They said, “No, He ain’t no prophet. He claims to be a king.”

Pilate said, “Okay, we got to talk to Him now.”

You understand the difference?

You keep making Him a religious man. He didn’t found a religion. His problem was He brought a government back, and according to Rome there’s no other government but Rome.

So Pilate said to them, “Are you telling me He said He’s a king?”

They said, “Yes.”

He said, “He’s a king. He’s competing with Caesar.”

And Pilate asked Him a question: “Are you king?”

And Yahusha answered very plainly.

Yahusha said, “You are right in saying I am a king. For this very reason I came into the world.”

Now the trial is on.

And Pilate realized that his job is in danger because his job is to keep peace in the whole of Palestine. That’s the territory that Caesar set him to control. He’s the governor in that part of the colony.

And the report can’t get back to Rome that Pilate is allowing another local king to take over the territory.

So he said that. “Yahusha, are You king?”

And Mashiach understood Pilate’s fear, and He said, “Yes, I am a king, but don’t worry. My kingdom is not of this world.”

So don’t panic.

When the people heard that answer, they became angry again because they realized that Pilate was falling in love with the guy and might let Him off.

So the people said, “If you let Him go, Pilate, we will report you to Caesar.”

Then they said, “Because we have no king but Caesar.”

That was the issue.

Stop making Yahusha a prophet. Prophets have no kingdoms. Only kings have kingdoms.

Mashiach is a politician. He’s a king.

When Pilate heard the people say that they were going to rise up and send a message to Rome, Pilate went to his wife and said, “I’m confused. This guy is a nice guy. He said He’s a king, but at least it ain’t our territory. And I find no fault in this guy. Matter of fact, He’s good for me. He’s feeding the poor. We ain’t got to pay for them no more. Healing the sick. We ain’t got to give no more welfare and no medication to these people no more.”

In other words, Mashiach was a blessing to Pilate. Pilate probably liked Him.

His wife said, “Yeah, I think you better let that guy go. Something about Him I like. Don’t touch Him.”

And he went and washed his hands.

Then he went back out and took Him before the people, and the people cried, “Pilate, if you let Him go, we report you.”

He said, “What do you want me to do with Him then?”

They said, “Crucify Him.”

Now, I want to show you that He didn’t come ready to be crucified as the main issue.

So He went to the execution stake. He died. Fine.

He still didn’t leave.

He went back to the tomb for three days. He still wouldn’t leave. He came back in the body, came out. Job still ain’t finished.

So you thought the stake was the job. You missed the job.

His main point was He came to bring the Governor back.

He’s the King.

So He said, “I can’t leave yet. I got some work I got to finish my work.”

And He called it the promise of the Father.

The Father did not promise the execution stake. Yahusha said that. He said the Father promised the Ruach Ha’Qodesh would come back.

So He couldn’t leave until the job was finished.

So He said, “Meet Me in fifty days.” That’s what Pentecost means, fifty. Fifty days after the Pesach. “Meet in this room.”

And He said, “Wait. I’m going to give you not just the Governor. I’m going to give you authority and power. The Governor is not just going to be present. He’s going to empower you to bring the culture back.”

Here comes the Ruach Ha’Qodesh on the fiftieth day, and He fills everybody with power and gives them back their home language.

And guess what? After that, He left.

Job completed.

When a king sits down — you don’t know about this, right? Okay, please buy the books. There are certain principles in kingdoms that you need to learn.

When the king stands up, that means his kingdom is not in order.

Let me say it again. Write it down.

That’s a principle for kingdoms.

Remember, I was born in a kingdom. I understand this stuff.

When a king stands up, that means his kingdom is not in order. Something is wrong.

So when a king sits down, that means everything is in order.

Now, a king never sits until everything is in order in his kingdom. That’s a kingdom law.

The Bible says Yahusha Ha’Mashiach left the earth and He is now seated. That’s an important statement. You all just read it here in democracy and don’t understand it.

Seated is a powerful word in a kingdom.

Seated means it’s finished. I’ve done it. Everything’s in order now. The kids can pick up the spoils.

What have we been doing for 1,800 years?

Hanging around the stake.

You’re supposed to be seated with Mashiach in heavenly places, not hanging around the stake.

The stake has done its work. You’ve been forgiven and cleansed. The temple is clean.

Get busy taking back the territory.

See, religion has destroyed your mind to the point where all you think about is the means and you never understand the end.

Write this down:

The Kingdom of Elohim is not a religion. It’s a country.

If you read Yeshayahu (Isaiah) chapter 9, it says this:

“For unto you a child will be born, unto you a son will be given. His name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, the Mighty El, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”

He’s talking about the coming of who? The Messiah. The King.

The next verse says, “And the government” — not a government — “the government shall be upon His shoulders.”

He’s bringing back what? Not a religion. He’s bringing back a government.

The government, not a government, which means that the one you lost, that’s the one He’s bringing back.

That’s why He had to be carrying the Ruach Ha’Qodesh.

The King is the government, and the Governor is the government’s representative.

He had both of them.

He was King carrying the Ruach Ha’Qodesh.

That’s why He said to them many times, He would stand next to them talking, and He would say these words:

“The Kingdom of Elohim is with you and shall be in you soon.”

In other words, He was carrying the Governor, and He was a King. He said, “But He can’t come in you yet because I got to clean you up first.”

He said, “It is therefore important for Me to get away from here, to go to the stake. I got to open this stuff up, because if I don’t go,” He says, “the Spirit cannot come in you. My leaving is important to you.”

He says, “It’s better that I go away from you. Otherwise the Governor can’t live in you. He’s trapped in Me right now. I got Him locked up in one body. But if you let Me go,” He says, “and I get to clean you guys up, then greater works you do.”

Here’s why.

Let me explain the greater works.

He didn’t say better works. He said greater works.

Greater works means, “I am limited to this body. I am limited to Israel.”

Mashiach only left Israel once in His whole life, and that’s when His mother and father took Him to Egypt as a child.

He never left.

Which means that the Ruach Ha’Qodesh was trapped in one body, trapped in one country.

And He said, “But if I go away, and I get to clean you guys up, man, listen to Me, the Ruach Ha’Qodesh gets to live in all the temples. There will be two billion temples all over the world, different colors, different languages, different locations, and I’ll be everywhere at the same time. Greater works.”

And instead of just two hands, I’ll have two billion hands.

Instead of just two feet, I’ll have twenty billion feet.

I can lay hands on a million people at the same time, not just one blind man.

Greater works.

It’s a government.

Write this down:

The foundation of all nations is constitutional law.

If the Kingdom of Shamayim is a country, then it must be built on constitution and law.

And that leads me to my next point.

The message of Yahusha Ha’Mashiach was the return of the state of heaven on earth.

He came to bring back the constitutional powers of heaven to earth.

He came to make sure that the culture of heaven could come back to the planet.

He came to recolonize earth with heaven.

That’s why Yahusha came.

Nothing to do with religion. Nothing to do with religion.

He came to bring the Kingdom of Elohim back to earth.

Let’s take a look at a statement He made about Him.

Mattithyahu (Matthew) 4:23, a verse you never saw before.

Let’s read it together:

“And Yahusha went throughout all Galilee, teaching in the synagogues and preaching what? The good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease among the people.”

He went everywhere with this one message: the country is here, the kingdom is here.

Look at Mattithyahu 5:3:

“Blessed are those who are spiritually bankrupt, empty, poor, vacant. Why? Because to them belongs the Kingdom of Shamayim.”

He said if man is spiritually poor, he doesn’t need religion. He needs the Kingdom, because that’s what you lost.

That’s why your religion ain’t satisfying you.

Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, futurism, and Christianity too.

I was born in church. I landed in a pew from my mother’s womb. My father was a Baptist pastor all my life. I grew up in the choir playing the piano. And believe me, we faked it for years pretending to be happy.

That’s why religion keeps you so busy, because you are empty. So they keep you in programs to make sure you don’t remember your emptiness. All these programs, programs, programs.

Mashiach says the only thing that will fill that empty spiritual void is the Kingdom of Shamayim. That’s what you lost.

Look at this one in the book of Mattithyahu 10:7:

Yahusha was speaking: “As you go, preach this message.” What message? “The Kingdom of Shamayim has arrived.”

Mattithyahu 12:28:

“But if I drive out demons by the Spirit of Elohim, then what has arrived? The Kingdom of Elohim has come upon us.”

The impact of the culture of heaven on earth is what He’s talking about.

When a demon is cast out or the sick is healed or the dead is raised, that’s a sign that the country of Elohim is in the neighborhood. It’s returned to the culture.

So healing is nothing special to Elohim. It’s evidence of the presence of the culture of heaven.

Can I pray this way?

You ain’t supposed to be sick if you’re in the Kingdom of Elohim.

Say it. “I ain’t supposed to be sick if I’m in the Kingdom of Elohim.”

So when a disease attacks your body or a cold or flu begins to come on, your prayer should be this: “This is not my culture.”

Speak to it.

Healing is not an incident, not an event. It’s a culture.

Mattithyahu 13:11:

And Yahusha replied, “The knowledge of the secrets of what? The Kingdom of Shamayim has been given to you.”

He’s given you some principles and laws to live in the kingdom now, and they are secret to those who are outside, but not to you who are a citizen.

Look at Mattithyahu 6:33:

“But seek first the Kingdom of Elohim and His righteousness, and all these things that you need will be added to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”

Relax. Go make a tall glass of lemonade and enjoy your life.

He says, “Give Elohim a hand for peace.”

The Kingdom tastes like honey.

When you understand it, it tastes so sweet. It makes so much sense.

Religion is confusing.

His first public statement, Mattithyahu 4:17:

“From that time forward Yahusha began to preach, ‘Repent.’”

Change your thinking. Why? “For the Kingdom of Shamayim has arrived.”

Mattithyahu 4:23. Now this one you never saw:

“Yahusha went throughout all Galilee, teaching in the synagogues and preaching the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease among the people.”

Notice He never healed first and then preached. He preached and then healed.

Check it in all those scriptures.

He declared the Kingdom first and then proved it was present.

Healing should not be something we should be running after. Healing and miracles should be running after us.

This must be the evidence that we have arrived.

How have the mighty fallen.

Okay, so all countries have citizenship.

And we get to the meat right now.

I can’t finish this. I know I can’t.

I’ll just give you enough to disturb you.

Everybody say, “Heaven.”

I’ve proven to you that heaven is a country, right?

Countries don’t have membership.

So please write these statements down. These are very important statements.

Countries have citizenship.

So here’s what I want you to remember. I want to show you what I’m going to be focusing on all year.

If you want to sign up for my CD every week, you can sign up for it. I’ll send you a CD every week of what I’m teaching live, because once you get this in your mind, your whole life changes.

Write this down:

The greatest gift a nation can give a citizen is citizenship.

The greatest gift a nation can give is citizenship.

I’m going to prove it right now.

Number two.

The greatest power a nation can give is citizenship.

It’s a gift and a power.

Number three.

The greatest right a nation can give is citizenship.

Very important.

And number four.

The greatest judgment a nation can mete on a citizen is cancellation of their citizenship.

And that’s what happened to us in Bereshith 3.

We turned our backs on the government, and Elohim canceled our citizenship.

When you cancel citizenship, you withdraw the gift, the power, and the rights of authority.

What makes you so dangerous in your country right now is the fact that you are a citizen.

It’s a gift to be born in America. You automatically become a citizen. That’s a gift. You didn’t look for that. It was given to you by the government, the constitution.

Secondly, the power of citizenship.

Your power comes from citizenship, not from membership.

Citizens are powerful. They are dangerous.

You’ve got 21 million illegal immigrants in America right now. That’s the count they have. Might be more. Twenty-one million. And the government has been trying to figure out what to do with them for the last 20 years. And every government keeps arguing in your country in Congress about them.

What do we do with these people?

Do you know why there’s so much argument?

Because when you give citizenship to a person, it’s not a piece of paper. It’s power. It’s right to even criticize you.

It’s dangerous to be a citizen.

That’s why all governments control citizenship. All of them. They’re afraid because citizenship is power and rights.

Write this down please.

Philippians 3. Let’s prove that you are a citizen of heaven.

It says, Philippians 3:19, “Their mind is on earthly things. That’s other folks who are outside. But our citizenship is where? Registered in heaven.”

He says, “And we are waiting for our King to come back because He is bringing everything under His control through what? His citizens.”

Now He wants you to bring things under control by His power in you as a citizen.

In your country He wants education to be under His kingdom control. He wants politics in your city to be under kingdom control. He wants education. He wants media. He wants internet. He wants everything in your country to be influenced by kingdom culture, kingdom values, kingdom morals — not a religion.

We’re not Muslims trying to take over government. We are like yeast. We just influence things.

Write this down. It’s not a verse.

Ephesians chapter 2. Read out loud please:

“Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but fellow citizens of Elohim’s people and members of His household.”

Okay, two words to write down please: citizenship and membership.

Countries don’t have members. Families have members.

The word household means family.

Elohim has a family. You are members of Elohim’s family. That’s why He says you are called the sons of Elohim.

Members have no power.

Being a member of your family doesn’t make you powerful with Washington.

What makes you powerful with Washington is your citizenship rights.

The church has been so preoccupied with being a member of Elohim’s body, they don’t know their rights as citizens.

Membership benefits you because you know the Judge — that’s your Daddy — and you know the Lawyer — that’s your Counselor.

But it doesn’t benefit you when you start making demands on the government. You need constitutional rights. You need citizenship.

So citizenship is your legal status. Membership is your family status.

The King is your big Brother. His name is Yahusha. But first He’s a King, then a Brother.

You don’t get things from Mashiach because He’s your Brother. You get them because you are a citizen.

Let me give you an example.

Mashiach came into a temple, to the synagogue one day, and all the big pastors and bishops from Atlanta were sitting up there, all the preachers from Bradenton were there with their robes and everything. And here He comes in this little casual robe. He sits down, and of course they recognize Him as a rabbi.

Rabbi means master teacher.

So He sits down, and they’re going on with this meeting, reading the Torah and all this stuff, and He’s sitting there observing this thing. He’s a troublemaker.

And the Bible says He stood up. Every rabbi is allowed to read a couple of verses, so He gets up, probably reads a few verses, and the Bible says something weird. It says, “And there was a woman in the crowd who was hunched over.”

Watch Him now. He’s going to cause problems here.

It says He fastened His eyes on her. That means He stopped reading and went like this. In other words, she was like this. He saw this person’s head because she couldn’t look up. She probably had osteoporosis, that problem in the back, so she had to sit like this.

And He noticed that everybody was up except the woman.

So the Bible says He fastened His eyes on her.

“I don’t know what’s wrong with her.”

And He realized, wow, she’s in bondage by this disease.

So He looks at her. Obviously everybody tried to look at what He was looking at, so everyone turns.

And then they’ve got the woman, and the bishops and the pastors got excited. The Bible said they said to each other, “It’s a Sabbath day. What’s He going to do now? Wrong day. Sit down. Don’t fool with our message and our meeting today. Don’t you interrupt our meeting now.”

You know, they’re talking to each other.

He says, “What’s He going to do now? What’s He going to do now?”

Now watch Him. I want to prove to you that He doesn’t help her because she’s a member of the body of Mashiach.

He knows that they are whispering behind Him, so the Bible says He said out loud, “Is that woman a daughter of Abraham?”

He goes directly to a contract.

Legal stuff.

He’s not saying that’s My creation and she’s My daughter. He says, “Isn’t she in the contract?”

When you come to pray, anytime you pray, always pray, you’ve got to bring your Bible. You pray the Bible back to Elohim. This is the contract.

Now He’s talking to the guys behind Him, and He knows He got them.

He said, “Isn’t she a daughter of Abraham?”

They said, “Yes, sir.”

Good.

Then the contract says that the seed of Abraham in the contract legally is to be blessed, and none of the diseases of Egypt are to be upon any of them.

And based on scientific studies, they found osteoporosis in Pharaoh’s mummies.

So He shifted to rights.

He uses a word that only judges can use.

He said, “Ought not this woman…”

It’s the strongest word in English language.

“Ought” means right.

Ought not this woman, who is a daughter of Abraham, be set free from this infirmity? Not because I like her, because of the contract.

He says, “Lift your hands right now. Say, ‘Yahuah, heal me now. I have a right to be healed because I am in the contract.’”

That’s how you get healed.

You don’t beg Elohim for nothing.

David says, “I’ve never seen the righteous begging.”

Citizenship.

Write this down, and I’ll give you the secret:

Citizenship — the principles of citizenship.

Please write these things down because you’ve got to go back and study these for the next three months, and they will set you free. And when you read the Bible it’s going to make sense.

The Bible makes sense when you understand kingdom concepts.

Number one.

Citizenship is the key to empowerment.

Number two.

Citizenship provides legitimate access to all the rights and privileges of the state.

“Ought not this woman who is in the contract be healed?”

The contract heals.

Number three.

Citizenship is the source of individual personal authority.

That’s why that book on authority is so important. Please read it. It took me 27 years to write that book because I had to test it. I had to prove it in my own life.

The power of citizenship authority.

And it gives you two types of authority.

It gives you personal authority, and it gives you corporate authority.

Citizens are powerful creatures.

That’s why you can pick up the phone and make the police come to your house, because you are a citizen. You can stand before the whole government and demand your rights from government, and they can’t stop you. Why? Because it gives you personal power as a citizen.

The average person in this room is an ignorant citizen of America.

You know why? You don’t know your rights.

Do you know why? Because you haven’t read the constitution.

The greatest enemy of man is not the devil. It’s not even demons. According to Yahusha, God the Father, the King, He said our greatest enemy is this: “My people are destroyed, not because of the devil, but because of a lack of knowledge.”

You don’t know your rights.

Buy a new Bible every year.

This is my 2011 Bible here because I never read one Bible twice, because when you read a Bible you make notes in the Bible, and the problem is the notes you make the first time block any further revelation.

So I read the Bible through every year, total Bible every year.

I read it every year because I must know my rights.

That’s why Elohim can’t give you revelation. You’re stuck with the notes.

Every time you read a verse, the notes on the side make you keep repeating the same notes. Elohim can’t give you fresh revelation.

His blessings are new every morning. Don’t get stuck on the old one from last year.

Somebody says, “I’ve got a Bible that’s my Bible. I had it for 40 years.”

That’s stupid. That means you’re stuck for 40 years with the same notes.

Don’t be proud of that.

I’ve got over 30 Bibles in my house.

Every year I read them.

When I die, folks are going to find my Bibles. They can get revelation. They can write books after I die from just my notes in my Bibles, because every year I get different revelation on the Kingdom.

The Bible is like an onion. It has layers. You don’t get stuck with one layer. Elohim knows more than He told you.

So go to the bookstore when I’m finished, clean the Bibles out, and start anew. This is my 2011 Bible. Start reading and watch Elohim blow your mind.

Number four.

Citizenship is the manifestation of the contract between the government and the people.

You are a citizen of heaven, it says. It gives you power. It also gives you access to all the privileges.

That’s why the people in this country who are illegal immigrants want citizenship. They want access to health care, education, security, support, and they don’t want to be running around hiding anymore.

When you have citizenship, it gives you access.

The power of a citizen is unknown in the church because we are members of His family.

I like what the centurion said to Yahusha.

He said, “Come and touch my servant.”

Then he said, “No, wait a minute. I’ve been watching You. You understand authority.”

He said, “Now I work for a king too, Caesar. And I too am a man under authority, and because I work for a king and I have his authority, I can actually send people to do things, and they hear the king’s voice.”

So I say to one, “Go here,” he goes. “Come,” he comes.

He said authority gives you the power to give instructions.

“I’m a citizen of Rome. I’ve got power. I’m under the government.”

He said, “So You don’t need to come to my house anymore. Use Your rights of Your authority. You’re under whoever it is You’re under. Just say the word.”

Lift your hand up high right now. I feel the anointing on me.

“I am under the authority of heaven right now, and I declare every financial bondage is broken now in Yahusha’s Name.”

You’ve got to respond like you receive it.

I just spoke to you with authority.

Act like you receive it. Give Elohim a thank you right now.

I say act like you receive it.

I break the financial bondage over your life. Go, in Yahusha’s authority.

Don’t allow prophetic words to pass you by.

I am under the authority of the Kingdom of Shamayim right now ministering to you government civic power.

Take it and eat it. It’s yours.

Write this down.

The power of citizenship.

Number one.

Citizenship is the legal covenant between the individual and the government.

The Bible says your citizenship is in heaven.

That means Elohim has given you a legal contract between heaven. That’s why He said, “Wherever any two citizens come together and agree on something, whatever they bind on earth, heaven’s got to bind. Whatever they loose or allow on earth, heaven’s got to allow it.”

That’s the power.

You get what happens here. You control.

He says, “I will give you the keys of the Kingdom of Shamayim. Whatever you lock up on earth, heaven’s got to lock it up. Whatever you apply, you’ve got the power.”

I’m giving you the key authority. I’m giving you the laws, the principles. You control what happens on earth.

He says a legal contract.

Write this down.

Only nations have legal components of citizenship.

Write it down. It’s very important.

Because until your mind changes from thinking religion to kingdom, you will never succeed in Elohim’s country.

If only nations have citizenship, and you are a citizen of heaven, then the Kingdom of Elohim is not a religion, because religions don’t have citizenship. Religions have membership, not citizenship.

Where are you from?

“I am a member of the Baptist church.”

Okay. What are you a citizen of?

It’s different.

We are so good at being members. That’s why we’re powerless.

If your family is poor, you’re poor.

Let me say it again. I’m talking physically now.

If your family is a poor family, are you in the family? You’re poor.

In 1954 I slept on the floor. We were poor. We lived in a place called Bain Town, the lowest income area of my island. Wooden house on four big rocks.

I kept confessing, “I am blessed. I am blessed.”

And I kept sleeping on the floor on a rug with roaches.

Confession didn’t do it.

I had to get a revelation that I’m a citizen. I have no right to sleep on this floor.

We enjoy poverty almost as a holy badge.

“But we don’t want too much, you know. We want to stay humble. We don’t want a lot because we just want to stay close to Elohim.”

Dumbest theology I’ve ever heard in my life.

The Catholics call it holy poverty. That’s a theology in the Catholic church because it keeps you humble, they say.

Well, here’s my problem.

If you read the Bible from cover to cover, anyone who ever kept company with Elohim became wealthy.

Stop with Abraham.

You don’t hang out with Elohim and stay poor.

The Bible says David took out of his personal account and paid for the temple. No taxes. It says his place, the guy.

How can a man take his personal checkbook and finance the temple for Elohim?

And here you are talking about, “I’m humble and I love Yahuah.”

You mean you love Yahuah?

What’s amazing is Abraham never prayed for things. He submitted to the covenant, the contract.

Lift your right hand right now.

“So shall you, so shall I be with you in Yahusha’s Name. From this beginning of this day, you shall live under a covenant, a contract with your government, and the government shall supply your needs according to its riches in the heavenly places.”

You can’t take no more, so I’ve got to go.

Read Ephesians please, chapter 2 again out loud:

“Consequently you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but fellow citizens of Elohim’s people and members of this household.”

You are citizens of heaven.

So this is my scripture for the whole year. I want you to make it yours.

Philippians 3:19. Read:

“Their minds are on earthly things, but your citizenship is in heaven. He brings everything under His control, and He will transform your lowly sickly body to be like His.”

Citizenship rights.

Look at Luke 10 out loud. Read:

“I give you authority,” He says, “to trample on snakes and scorpions and all the power of the enemy.”

What a promise. Hallelujah. What a promise.

“I give you what? Authority.”

Authority is not the same as power.

Authority is rights.

Authority is permission to use power.

Please get the book out there, because you’ve got to study this stuff. Turn the TV off and read. Get your brain stretched. You need knowledge. Don’t let ignorance become your friend. It’ll destroy you.

Authority means your permission to use power.

“I give you authority to exercise your citizenship,” He says, “and to trample upon what? Snakes and scorpions.”

These are Hebraic idioms. An idiom is a symbol that means something else. If you study the Bible, this is used many times. Scorpions and snakes represent demonic powers, satanic powers, all satanic powers. It could be political, social, economic, physical, medical.

He says, “I’m going to give you authority to exercise your power as a citizen over all powers of the enemy.”

You shouldn’t be under any circumstance after this conference. You should be on top of them.

Whatever’s over your head is still under His feet. So sit where He sat so that it can be under yours too.

You are citizens and you have authority.

I call it Kingdom Citizenship Authority.

I’ve got a lot more to say to you, but you can’t take it anymore, so let me just give you a conclusion.

Write this down. I want you to go back and share this with your family.

The three most important words you’re going to learn this year:

Kingdom. Citizenship. Authority.

Kingdom is defined as a national government ruling a state. The Kingdom of Elohim is a sovereign King ruling territory. It’s a country.

Citizenship is legal status with constitutional rights and privileges, and that Bible in your lap is your constitution. It gives you rights and privileges.

Authority is defined as the personal right to exercise power through alignment with constitutional law.

The last one is most important.

You can be in a country and still not have authority because you can actually lose authority if you don’t align yourself with the laws of the country.

There are many citizens of America right now who have no authority. They’re locked up in prison.

Why? They violated law.

When you violate law, you cancel your authority to use the power of citizenship.

It’s called sin.

The church is weak because we have law-breaking citizens, not law-abiding citizens.

Your private life is a mess, and then you come in church and ask Elohim to bless you.

You are a law-breaking citizen trying to get rights.

You’re preaching the gospel in the pulpit every Sunday, and the organist is your lover, male or female, and then you ask Elohim to pay your light bill.

You have no right to demand nothing from Elohim if you are breaking the law.

Any country works that way.

You can’t go to the government and ask the government to give you money and you owe taxes. You broke the law.

Some of you in this room have not paid tithes for ten years and ask Elohim to bless you. Then you send money to, you know, somebody on TV expecting to get a blessing, and Elohim is saying, “You can’t get blessed with this. This is debt. You’re paying. This ain’t seed.”

Elohim calls it robbing.

He said, “Why have you robbed Me? You haven’t paid your taxes.”

Tithes are taxes. It’s a law.

This funny religion we’ve got now.

People tell you, “Send them money.”

Listen to me.

Make sure you take care of your local house first.

You pay your taxes to your local assembly, right? That’s an embassy of the government, and your job is to pay local taxes to take care of maintenance of the country, that there’ll be meat in the house.

Then you take offerings and invest them in different things.

You break the law and ask Elohim to bless you.

Even America wouldn’t do that.

Law-abiding citizens.

That’s why all last year I taught on law. I tried to bring it back into the church because the church is so full of grace, it is lawless.

I’m talking from the bishops all the way down to the usher, living in sin.

I have to keep my life clean to protect my access.

Don’t you get it?

The next time somebody asks you to sin with them, your answer should be, “I can’t break my access.”

Let me close with this, because you can’t take it anymore.

Turn to Mattithyahu chapter 6 in your Bible.

Hallelujah.

Mattithyahu chapter 6.

Everybody say, “Obedience.”

This is very important.

Do you know why you stop at a red light?

I must come back and teach some more of this because the church is a mess.

We stop at red lights in your secular country and don’t stop at red lights in Elohim’s country.

First the Ruach Ha’Qodesh puts a caution light up.

Don’t go with your ex-husband.

You can’t sleep with this man. He’s not your husband.

Just a caution light.

Don’t go to this appointment with him. Caution light.

And then on your way there He puts the red light up.

Please stop.

And you keep going.

And you sit with someone in a hotel room you’re not married to, and Elohim says, “Heaven has shut down on you.”

We stop at red lights.

You know what’s amazing about law? The law never makes you keep it. Red lights have never stopped the car yet.

Fix your life this year.

Fix it from this conference, this meeting.

Get your life sorted out.

Cut off bad relationships.

Cancel habits.

Shut down stupid sites on pornography.

Shut out people who can’t go with you to the next level.

Leave some family.

Get away from things.

You better get your life sorted out.

You want Elohim to bless you? Line up with the law.

Be a law-abiding citizen, and you’ll never have to look over your shoulder to see if a cop is coming.

Do what Elohim says, and you can sleep at night.

Can your wife answer your phone every time, sir? That’s the question.

Can your husband answer your telephone in your absence?

Are you breaking the law?

When you stop at a red light, it is called in the Bible — write this way down — righteousness.

Righteousness. Write it down.

R-I-G-H-T. You see it in there? It has to do it right.

Righteousness means alignment with law and authority.

Righteousness means what? Alignment with law and authority.

Write it down.

Secondly, righteousness means right positioning with authority and law.

Right positioning with authority and law.

That’s called right positioning.

It’s called righteousness.

Right standing.

Standing in the right place is righteousness.

It has to be lined up with authority.

In other words, keeping laws and standards in order to remain in right relationship with something — the government.

That’s why you stop at the red light. You want to remain in the right relationship with that cop on the side there.

Once you line up with the law from the red light, then the cop can’t touch you. He actually protects you. He becomes your protector.

That’s righteousness.

So the most important word in a kingdom is the word obedience.

The government takes care of a citizen in a kingdom — opposite to democracy. Opposite.

In democracy you take care of yourself. In a kingdom the government takes care of you.

That’s why Mashiach says, “Do not worry what you will eat, what you will drink.”

He said, “Don’t do that. You just seek to get into My Kingdom, and these things are added.”

But what you didn’t read is the other part. Two things He said you must do to get everything to be added to you.

Two things. You’ve got to do both of them.

He says, “Seek first the Kingdom of Elohim.” That’s the part you like.

He says, “But also His righteousness.”

Stay lined up with the law.

Be a law-abiding citizen.

And then He says do those two things for the rest of your life. That’s all.

And everything you need, the government is given to you.

So let me repeat it slowly again.

Seek first the Kingdom. The conjunction and is important, which means you’ve got to do the same thing with what I’m going to say next.

You seek righteousness. Don’t just seek to get into the Kingdom, the country, but seek to remain. Look for, try, work hard to be always in right standing. Seek it.

Do you seek to stop at the red light? You do the same thing for righteousness as you do for the Kingdom. You pursue it.

And then you can quote these kind of promises:

“I have never seen the righteous forsaken.”

See, a lot of you all are being forsaken by Elohim because you’re not lining up.

It’s like a criminal demanding that the government buy him a car.

The church is full of those people. Criminals at the altar asking Elohim to pay their mortgage, and Elohim is like, “You are a criminal.”

Don’t you get it?

You are a criminal. You are locked up. Heaven has shut down on you.

Some people say to me, “Pastor Miles, law is bondage.”

Okay.

Open your Bibles to Mattithyahu chapter 5.

Take a deep breath please.

Yahusha knew that you would be here thinking that kind of foolishness.

He knew you would think and even be taught by theologians, by your church pastors, that law is finished.

So let’s read His words.

Ready?

He says, chapter 5, verse 17:

“Do not think.”

What a way to start.

Do not think that I have come to abolish the law.

Why? Because that’s what you’re going to think.

He says, “I’m going to cut you off at the pass. I’m going to save your theology now. I come to bring grace, but not to cancel law. The law I came to cancel is ritual law, not divine laws of Elohim.”

It gets worse.

“Do not think that I have come to destroy the law or the prophets who spoke them. I have come not to abolish them but to actually enforce them.”

Fulfill means, in the Hebraic sense, to put the spirit back in them.

You know the difference between the term written law and the spirit of the law.

Yahusha said, “I’m a lawyer. I came back to earth to get My city back in order, My colony back in order, My country back in order. I didn’t come to destroy law. I came to make sure you kept it.”

You don’t believe me? Watch the next verse.

It gets worse.

He says, “I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth pass away, not one single comma or dot or tittle of the law will by any means disappear from the law until everything is back in order.”

Verse 19.

“Anyone, anyone, anyone” — this is New Testament, Yahusha speaking — “anyone who breaks the least of My laws and teaches others to do them is called least in My country, in the Kingdom of Elohim.”

It gets worse.

“But if anyone keeps these laws and does what Dr. Monroe is doing today, teaching others to keep them, they shall be called great in the Kingdom of Elohim.”

I’m a great man.

And then He closes it.

He says, “By the way, unless your righteousness” — that means unless your lining up with the law — “is greater than those religious people lighting candles, you cannot enter kingdom lifestyle.”

I rest my case.

LAW ABIDING CITIZEN

This concept of law-abiding citizen has been missed. I want you to write this down.

The country of Shamayim, a term you need to get used to.

First of all, the Bible is not about a religion. The Bible is about a kingdom called Shamayim. Am I right? Am I right? You want to argue with me or do you agree with that? That was the Bible. It’s about a King and a Kingdom.

Open the gates and let the King of glory come in. Who is the King of glory? Yahuah strong and mighty, Yahuah mighty in battle. He is the King, not a prime minister. He’s the King, not a president of glory. Of what glory? That’s Shamayim.

The Bible says all through Psalms He’s the King of Shamayim. You can’t be a king of nothing. It has to be a country.

Let me move to point number two. Write this down.

What is the kingdom?

The average American doesn’t know what a kingdom is. That’s why I’m giving it to you now. Please write it down because that’s all the Bible is about.

The Bible is about a King and a Kingdom.

What is a kingdom?

A kingdom, write it down, is the governing influence of a king over his territory, impacting that territory with his will, his purpose, and his intent.

When he does that, he produces a citizenship of people that reflect the king’s values, morals, culture, and lifestyle.

That’s a kingdom.

Not a whole sentence. It’s a kingdom.

A kingdom is a country ruled by a king. A kingdom is a nation ruled by a king. It is not a religion. It’s a country.

I was born in one in 1954. I was born in a kingdom. I was born under a colony under a king and queen until 1973. We declared independence from a kingdom.

Every morning we had to honor that king and queen in our kingdom. We owned nothing. The roads, the forest, the birds—everything was called royal possession. Because in a kingdom you own nothing.

We couldn’t own property because in a kingdom the king owns everything. He allows you to use everything. That’s why you thank him 24 hours a day.

Worship never stops in the kingdom.

In a kingdom you never go to worship. Existing requires worship.

That’s why David says let all that has breath praise Yahuah. Every time you breathe you’re using His material.

A kingdom is a country.

What did I say?

What did I say?

Say it loud.

Say it four times.

A kingdom is a country.

One more time.

A kingdom is a country.

Again.

A kingdom is a country.

Say it again.

Shamayim is a country.

It’s invisible, but it’s a country.

It is the first country that existed. It is the original invisible country of Yahuah.

The name of the King is Yahuah.

It’s real. It’s more real than earth. It produced earth.

All of us used to live there.

That’s why deep in your psyche there is some strange awareness that you are not from here.

Where did we live when we lived there?

The answer is in the Bible.

The Bible says we were in Him before the foundation of the earth. We were inside of Elohim, spirits.

So Shamayim is the ultimate country.

It’s a supernatural country.

The word supernatural simply means above the natural.

Shamayim is a supernatural spiritual country.

You are actually a spirit, but you live in an earth suit.

You came down from Shamayim.

You were sent here by your government to colonize the earth for your government.

That’s what kingdoms do.

They colonize territory.

You were sent here from that country to colonize earth for the King of glory, Shamayim.

You’re supposed to make earth just like Shamayim.

That’s what your job was from the beginning.

You were sent here to dominate earth for your King, to have dominion, to dominate it, to fill the earth with the culture of Shamayim.

The word culture is the same word as glory.

The earth shall be filled with the glory—not of Rome, not of Italy, not of Spain, not of Greece—but the glory of Elohim.

That’s what Elohim wanted.

We lost the glory.

We lost the culture.

Now write this down please.

Let’s talk about the country.

Let’s see if what I’m saying is true.

Here’s a verse you never saw in the Bible before.

Remember, you only find what you look for.

Let me show you a verse about a country that you never saw and it’s really referring to Shamayim.

The Hebrew writer says in Hebrews 11:13, he’s talking about all the patriarchs and matriarchs in history.

He’s talking about Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Daniel, Yoseph, Yoel, Amos, Obadiah, Yonah, Micah, Nahum.

He’s talking about Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi and the prophets and all these kings.

He’s saying look, all these people were still living by faith when they died.

That means they never saw what they were looking for.

Now what were they looking for?

Read it.

It says they did not receive the things that they were promised.

They only saw them and welcomed them from a distance.

And they admitted that they were aliens and strangers on the earth.

We’re not from here.

Read the next statement out loud.

People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own.

Keep reading.

If they had been thinking of the country that they had left, they would have had opportunity to return.

But instead they were longing for a better country.

A heavenly one.

I rest my case.

You are not from here.

You are from a country called Shamayim.

But you’ve been cut off for over seven thousand years from your country.

You even lost the language.

That’s why when the Governor comes back into your life, the first thing He gives you is tongues.

He gives you a language back.

Tongues is your original language, not English.

That’s why you speak in tongues when you’re baptized in the Ruach Ha’Qodesh.

He’s reconnecting you to your hometown.

That’s why the Bible says when a man prays in tongues he doesn’t need interpretation for Elohim.

He speaks directly to Elohim.

He has to interpret for those listening because they don’t understand what he’s saying on earth.

The Bible calls tongues a sign.

It’s a sign that you’re from another country.

Let me tell you what I mean.

If someone walks with you right now and starts speaking Spanish, what would you think right away?

They’re from somewhere else.

That’s a sign.

Your language betrays your country.

So when somebody speaks in tongues I don’t have to wonder where they’re from.

That’s not a religious experience.

Stop telling people Pentecost is an experience.

Pentecost was the day, not the experience.

The experience was a national experience.

It was a sign that you have reconnected to your hometown.

They were looking for what?

A country.

Now some of you still don’t believe me.

So I better read a verse.

Yahusha said, seek first—not a religion—seek first the Kingdom of Elohim and His righteousness and everything else that you need will be added to you.

He told us to seek a country.

We keep seeking a religion.

Oh boy, I’m hesitating because I know you can’t take it, but anyhow, let’s see like I can decide what to tell you.

Okay, I’m going to give you something. Just think about it, okay?

If I ask you who are you as a citizen of the country, you would say American, right? Am I right? You say you are an American.

If you are from Jamaica, you would say what? Jamaican. If you are from the Bahamas, you would say what? A Bahamian. If you’re from Japan, you say what? Japanese. If I ask you, you know, you’re from Guyana, you say Guyanese. So when I ask you where you’re from in this country, what do you say? American.

This is important.

Where you from? You say American. You don’t say Obamian.

Now listen to me carefully. Now, this ain’t funny. I’m going to show you how bad you’ve been corrupted. You don’t name yourself after the leader of a country. So I ask you where you’re from, you say, “I’m an American.” Okay, fine. You don’t say an Obama. You don’t go around in the name of the leader.

They ain’t get it yet.

If I’m from heaven, I am not a Christian. That’s a person. Christ is a person. That’s why the word is only used three times in the Bible, never instructed by Yahusha, never instructed by Yahusha. He never told us to call ourselves Christians. Never. He never did.

They asked Him one time where He was from. Matter of fact, a few times they asked Him, “Where are you from?” Now watch His answer. His answer was very interesting. His answer was very specific. They asked Yahusha, “Where are you from? Tell us plainly.” He said, “I came down from heaven.” That’s in your Bible.

Now wait a minute. He was born in Bethlehem, grew up in Nazareth, worked in Kapharnaum, ministered in the Galil area. He should have said, “I am an Israelite.” No, I’m not a nationalist. He says, they ask Him, “Where you from?” He says, “I came down from heaven. I’m a Heavian.”

Give Elohim a hand for being Heavier. Praise Elohim.

So there’s your new word for the rest of the year. Someone asks where you’re from, tell them it depends on which country you want me to tell you about. I’m an American and a Heavian. And they say, “What do you mean?” Well, I got dual citizenship. Come on, give Elohim a hand. I have dual citizenship.

We can talk about it right now.

Look at Mattithyahu chapter 13. Come on, find your Bible, and I want you to read this. Don’t tell nobody I didn’t show you the Word.

Mattithyahu 13, rediscovering your country.

Now here is the chapter again that you never read before. Here’s a verse you never saw before in the Bible because we don’t read the Bible.

Watch Him now.

Remember the Bible says in Hebrews 11 they were all looking for a country, and they didn’t find it. They died, didn’t find it. But then Yahusha came after them and says, “Blessed are those who are poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.” What Mosheh and Avraham were looking for, I have brought it back to earth. He called it good news.

And then He says this: “The Kingdom of Heaven is like what? A merchant looking, searching, looking for something. And when he finds it, what he does, he sells everything he was trying to use to get it, and he locks into it, and I found it. He says, ‘I’m home.’”

Look at Luke 22:29.

Read.

Mashiach is using some terms here. He says, “I confer on you…” What, a religion? Is that what He says? No. “I confer on you… what? A kingdom.”

Read it.

“Just as My Father conferred one on Me.”

To confer is a diplomatic term you use in government when you are ordaining an ambassador in a country. That’s the word you use. Confer means to transfer to a person a country. All ambassadors have that word spoken over them right there. All presidents and prime ministers use that word when they have an ambassador. They use the term confer.

To confer means to transfer the authority of an entire country on one person. So when you meet an ambassador, you’re not meeting a person, you’re meeting a country. This is why you will never hear of the assassination of an ambassador, because it’s too dangerous to kill an ambassador. A president is not a country. A president represents a political party, but an ambassador is a country. That’s why the Bible made sure Elohim doesn’t call you a president or even a prime minister or a mayor. The Bible says you are ambassadors of Mashiach. You are a country.

That’s why the devil has no right touching you. When he touches you, he’s touching heaven.

That’s why Yahusha said if any man offends the least of My citizens, it is better for him to tie a rope around his neck and jump into the river with a stone on the other end and drown and kill himself before I come to see him. Why? You touching the whole government when you touch one of My people.

It’s kingdom thinking.

He never agreed to defend a Baptist. He never said He’ll defend a Seventh-day Adventist or Episcopalian. He never said He would defend a Church of God in Christ, a Church of God, or Assemblies of God, or charismatic. He said, “I’m going to defend My citizen.”

Who do you represent? Your church? Your denomination? You don’t defend that stuff.

It gets worse.

Watch this.

Now here’s a verse you never saw before. I call it lost citizenship.

Yahusha is speaking, and He tells a story that most of us have never read. He’s talking about the Kingdom.

Watch this.

Luke 19:12 says, “He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and to return.”

He’s referring to Elohim creating the earth and putting us here to establish His Kingdom on earth. That’s why it’s called a far country. He’s telling the story of Bereshith chapter 1.

Watch Him. Every detail is here.

Watch this.

The next verse says, “And he called his ten servants and delivered unto them ten pounds and said unto them, Occupy till I come.”

Now talents, it’s money. So some translations have talents in this chapter, this verse. It actually tells you it’s money: ten pounds, money.

Now here’s what He’s using. He’s using the example of investment. He says Elohim sent His children here to invest for Him. When somebody invests money with you, they want what? Returns. Notice the story. He gave them a country, into a far country, to receive a kingdom, a country. And He said, “Now when I come back, I want the whole place to look like this, and you are the ones to do it. When I come back, I want to see everything coming with the glory of My culture.”

That was the assignment. There it is right there.

If you don’t believe me, read the next verse.

I’m reading Yahusha’s words.

But Yahusha is speaking now.

“But his citizens hated him.” Bereshith chapter 3.

Not his believers. Believers. Not his members. His citizens hated him. He called us citizens on earth.

Do you know what America came from? That exact same thing right there, verse 14. America was created out of verse 14. You used to be under a kingdom, remember? And in 1776, you decided that right there. You hated the kingdom of Great Britain, and there was a war, and you declared what we call independence. The British called it rebellion.

Write the word rebellion down, please.

Rebellion.

Now I want to give you some homework. All you students here—that means all of us are students—I want you to take the word rebellion, go and look it up in the Hebrew. Go on the internet, type in rebellion, press search. In the Hebrew, guess what word you’ll find? Write it down: sin.

When Elohim said you have sinned against Me, He’s not talking about adultery and stealing and lying. It’s bigger than that. They are consequences of sin. The sin is cutting off your relationship with heaven.

The citizens hated the King. The next statement says, “And sent a message to him.”

Boy, these are some tough citizens.

What do you think America did with England? Sent a message. Burned a boat with the tea on it. They call it a tea party. They cut off. They say, “We don’t want no ruler, no king over us in America.”

Listen.

So you became what? Independent.

That’s what Adam and Chavah did in Bereshith 3. They declared independence from heaven. And the Bible says the Spirit of Elohim couldn’t strive with men anymore. The Governor left and went back to heaven, the Ruach Ha’Qodesh.

And there’s the story.

What did they say? “We will not have this man reign over us.” That’s exactly what we told Elohim. We don’t want You in our lives. And in America, we’re about to do it again. We want You out of politics, out of the government, courts, out of school, out of business. Get out, Elohim. Get out.

Okay, okay. It’s called sin. Rebellion.

When you declare independence from a kingdom, you must set up your own government. So you write your own constitution. We did that with Elohim.

Elohim says you are all like sheep gone astray, each one to his own way. Elohim says, and then He says there’s a way that seems right unto man. He says you’ve got your own constitution. He said but the end of your constitution is death.

Is He right?

Think about it.

The first act of the new earth, independent earth, was a husband attacking his wife. Read the Bible. Domestic violence, husband against his wife, was the first act of the independent earth. Adam blamed his wife, and we’re still doing it.

The second act of the independent government was murder. A brother killed his own brother, and we’re still killing our brothers.

We were not created to rule the earth without Elohim.

So Elohim says the end of it is destruction. Self-destruct. You guys are killing yourself. Think about it. We have sex, feel good, have baby, kill the baby. We have sex, feel good, have a baby, kill the baby. We are gone. This is crazy.

The end thereof is destruction.

No government on earth will ever work. Earth was never created to be ruled without Elohim. This is Elohim’s property.

Read verse 1 again. “A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive a kingdom unto himself and to return.” In other words, He came, brought the Kingdom to earth, He went back to heaven. In other words, “I’m coming back. I’m going to return to see how you all did.” Before He could come back, we kicked Him out, and the citizens said, “We don’t want You anymore.”

And here we are still trying to rule ourselves.

What a mess.

Your kids are on drugs. You don’t sleep with your wife. You have four wives already, five husbands. You’re broke. Cancer in your gut. You can’t get it out. Your house is in foreclosure. You get migraines every night, and you do pornography every single night.

Elohim is saying, “This is a mess. How are you doing down there?” The same amount of divorce in the world is in the church. You are no different from pagans, lawbreakers.

Good news.

You can get your citizenship back.

Give Him a hand right there.

The King came back to the territory Himself. Matter of fact, if you read this chapter, here’s your homework. Read verse 15, 16, 17, 18, that same chapter, and you see where the King comes back to the territory to restore the citizens. He’s talking about Himself. The whole story is about man and Elohim and heaven and the Kingdom.

And He says what happened is you guys threw us out, but He came back to the territory, and the good news is He has given us citizenship back.

The cross of Yahusha Ha’Mashiach was a means to an end. It was not the end. Don’t preach it as the end. It is not the main message.

The King came to earth to restore citizenship, to reconnect the planet to heaven. He came to earth to bring back the Governor who left, the Ruach Ha’Qodesh, to live inside the citizen so you can have permanent contact 24 hours a day with your country.

That’s why the Ruach Ha’Qodesh never leaves you. He is your permanent contact with heaven all day and night while you sleep. He never leaves you. Your body is the temple, the house of the Ruach Ha’Qodesh, the Governor. Heaven is always in touch with you.

My question is, are you always in touch?

That’s what prayer is all about.

And Mashiach says pray without ceasing. Men ought always to pray, never faint. Always keep your mind on heaven.

Look at this first statement Sha’ul makes. He says their mind is in the wrong place, on earthly things.

Read the next statement loud.

“But our citizenship is in heaven.”

Wow. Give Elohim a hand. He got it back.

Now listen to me. In my bag over there is my passport. I’m from the Bahamas. I’m not from here. In that bag is a passport.

Now that passport, if you read it carefully—matter of fact, go and read your own passport. You should read it. Somebody never read it. It’s an interesting book.

In your passport there’s a statement. It’s a very important statement, and all passports have it. It always says in the passport—there’s your picture and your birth date and everything else, all your personal particulars—and then it says in the passport, “This document is property of the government.”

That’s important.

When you are a citizen, the passport proves that you are property of the constitution, the government.

Now I am where right now? In Bradenton, Florida. Where am I from? The Bahamas.

This is important.

Where am I now? In America.

Okay, I’m in America, but where am I from? The Bahamas.

Very important.

Am I an American? No.

But where am I? So I am in America, but not of Americans. I don’t need to go to the Bahamas to be a Bahamian. No matter where I go, I am not from them places. I am from the Bahamas. So I am property of the Bahamas even though I am in America. America doesn’t own me. The Bahamas owns me.

Yahusha said, “You are in the world, but not of the world.” That means wherever you go they got to know I ain’t from here. Y’all don’t own me. I am under a different government, different constitution, different laws.

That’s citizenship power.

That’s why Sha’ul says our citizenship where? No, what’s the word of citizenship? What’s the word after citizenship? What’s the word? Say it loud. Shout it loud. Shake the roof. Come on.

Now I want you to read this again, but I want you to shout the word.

Ready, go.

“Our citizenship is…” where?

Not going to be.

Religious people are taught that they will become citizens when they die. HalleluYah. You are a citizen now, which means you are under the government’s authority now. That means you are owned by heaven now. That means everything in the constitution in heaven belongs to you now. So you can claim everything in heaven that belongs to you now.

Come on, give Him praise.

They never taught you that in church.

You are not a member.

Let me explain this to you.

By the way, the second part is very important because our citizenship is not on earth, it’s in heaven. It says we await eagerly for our King to come back and see us. And notice what it says about Him. It says who, by the power that enables Him, brings everything where? Under whose control? His control. Your government.

When you come under the citizenship of heaven—oh man, I’m getting excited now—then He said you are seated with the King where? In heavenly places.

And I tell you, y’all don’t get this revelation, man. I’m going to scream all by myself.

Listen.

Where’s everything? Under Him.

You are seated exactly in the same chair.

Where’s everything?

To get things under you, you got to sit where He sits. And you can’t get there unless you are a citizen.

All the stuff you’re going through financially, emotionally, socially, psychologically, spiritually—you are under the circumstances. Under the circumstances.

So Elohim sent you to this conference tonight to change your perspective and your disposition and your position.

You will leave here not under circumstances anymore. They’re going to be under you.

And He said, “I will give you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions and all…”

Let’s just give Him thanks right now just thinking.

Nothing to do with religion. Nothing. It’s a country. It’s a kingdom.

It gets sweeter.

Watch this.

Ephesians 2:19.

Read out loud.

“Consequently you are no longer foreigners and aliens…”

Stop, stop, stop, stop reading. Stop reading. Sorry.

Think about what you just read. You are no longer illegal immigrants.

He says you can be in a country and still be illegal. You can be seen in the choir and be illegal in Elohim’s country. There are some pastors Elohim don’t even know. He said many would say to Me, “Adonai, Adonai,” and I will say to them, “I don’t see you in the books.”

Let me tell you something that’s important.

An illegal immigrant has no rights, so they can’t demand nothing. They have no authority. That’s why they’re hiding all the time and eating the scum of the earth. I wonder how you’re doing.

Christianity can’t help you. It’s a religion.

And I know you mean well. Listen, my father is a Baptist pastor, man. I had to leave the Baptist church. I got my jet parked right over there. I’m saying it for a reason. I got my own jet. I flew in my own jet. My pilots are somewhere in this crowd, and I don’t know where they are. I flew here. I’m not dumb. I never prayed for it. Never prayed for it because in the Kingdom you don’t pray for things. It comes with citizenship.

I’m glad you’re here, young man, because you see at least you got more years to make this work than your father has. You better listen to me carefully and believe what I’m showing you.

Don’t be religious. It will kill you.

Why do you worry what you will eat and what you will drink and what you will wear? Take no thought of these things, but seek ye first the Kingdom of Elohim and His righteousness, and all of these things shall be added to your life.

They don’t pray for things in the Kingdom of Elohim.

You pray for His country to come to earth.

And when you pray, pray like this:

“Our Father who is where?”

Not on earth.

Where is He?

In the home country.

Holy is Your Name. Thy country come. Thy will—legal process—be done where? On earth. How? Just like it is in the country.

You pray that.

What you been praying all these years? Been praying for cars and houses and food, clothing. He said only pagans pray for those things. Mattithyahu 6.

See how long we’ve been lost, my dear? They lied to you all them days in church. They never told you about the Kingdom.

Read again.

“Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but fellow citizens with Elohim’s people and members of His household.”

Write the two things down, please.

You are two things.

First, you are citizens.

Then secondly, you are what? Members of a household.

Now this is where the church missed it again.

You can never be a member of a country. Prove me wrong. No one in this room or watching this DVD is a member of a country. Countries have no members. Religions have members. You can be a member of a family, but you can’t be a member of a country. You never hear this term, “the family of America.” It doesn’t exist.

Now here’s why. Learn this lesson, please.

Members have no power.

Why?

Members have no rights.

Why?

Members have no authority.

Citizens are different. Citizens have rights, which gives them authority, which gives them power.

Ladies and gentlemen, please hear me.

Oh, time to go. Oh man, I’m just getting started. It’s time to go. Listen to me.

Members always have to beg for things because membership is by privilege.

Citizens never beg.

You didn’t know that, huh?

You got power as a citizen of America. When you pick the phone up and you call the police, they have to come. You got power as a citizen, and they got to find your house and report to you, “Can I help you? What did you call for?” You got power. That’s your right.

Household means you are members of Elohim’s family. Citizenship means that you’ve got legal status with the government of heaven.

Two different relationships.

Let me explain.

The Bible calls Yahusha, Hebrews chapter 2 says, He is our bigger brother.

Now ladies and gentlemen, this is deep.

Elohim is like the government. Yahusha is the King. The Ruach Ha’Qodesh is actually the legal system. That’s why He’s called the Counselor. He’s the lawyer.

Y’all don’t understand the Bible.

So Mashiach says, look, the government, that’s My Father, sent Me to earth. I’m the King, and I brought with Me on the inside of Me the Governor. That’s your legal counsel.

Now I came back to get citizenship sorted out. I’m going to die on the cross to take care of the rebellion, restore your citizenship, and then I’m going to give you the Counselor to live with you so He can explain to you the constitution because you can’t understand it. He’ll guide you into all truth. He’ll stay with you to show you your rights, your power.

And here you are having church services and staying broke.

He gave you power.

He gave you citizenship power.

Now this is the part I like the most.

In our country—that’s heaven—the whole country is set up for you to win.

Watch this.

Ah, I need some help.

Help me, Raymond. Come here. Stand up there for me, top steps.

Can you come help me? Can you stand right over here on this side? Face this way. No, you look straight. You’re not going to look at him.

All right, can you come here, Samantha? Okay, I want you to come stand right here facing him.

Okay, can you come here? Stand behind her.

I want to show you citizenship authority.

Okay, this is you, the citizen. This is the Ruach Ha’Qodesh. This is Yahusha. And that’s the Father.

Now this is how it works.

This citizen has the constitution in his hand, and he finds a promise in the constitution which has to do with your rights. All constitutions have in it the citizens’ aspirations and rights. So he takes this constitution and he has a need that he shouldn’t have in this country.

So he opens the constitution and he reads the clause in the constitution.

Subsection five, article six, subsection Philippians article.

Let me quote one for you.

Philippians, subsection four, article 19: “And my Elohim shall supply all…”

Okay, so then he says, “Okay, I got problems right now. That ain’t happening in my life.”

So he calls the Ruach Ha’Qodesh and tells the Ruach Ha’Qodesh, “Look, I understand it.” Ruach Ha’Qodesh, You understand it? Good, Ruach Ha’Qodesh, then let’s go get it.

So he comes.

What we call—write this word down—prayer.

Now right next to the word write this word: petition.

The word prayer is the word petition. It is not a religious word.

You don’t know what I think? Go look. Go on the dictionary again. Go to the internet. Type it in. You don’t got to let me teach you this stuff if the pastor ain’t teaching you this.

Prayer is not a religious activity.

Petition is a political activity.

It’s a legal action.

The petition means there has to be a constitution, there has to be a government, and there has to be law. Those three things are needed for petition.

Now follow me. This is important.

So when the Bible says pray, you can’t pray without three things.

First, you got to have a constitution.

You need a government.

You need laws.

Then you can pray.

When you walk into the courtroom to get what the country promised you from the judge, you bring in the courtroom not your emotions.

I’m getting ready to leave now because I’m going to get stoned.

That’s why Elohim isn’t hearing your prayer. You are too emotional.

When you go in a courtroom with a legal document to demand your rights and you begin to weep and cry, the judge stops the case and he says, “Go outside, gather yourself, and when you are composed, we’ll continue the case.” Why? Because this is not a courtroom of emotions. We deal with law and constitutional rights here.

So you come before the court, and look who’s standing in front of you: the Ruach Ha’Qodesh.

Now why is He there?

The Ruach Ha’Qodesh is there because you cannot speak in the language of the government.

That’s why when you have Yahusha Ha’Mashiach as your Counselor, when a lawyer is working for you, he tells you to keep your mouth shut.

Remember the Bible says, “You don’t know how to pray. You don’t know what you ought to pray for.” The Ruach Ha’Qodesh will take over your case, and He prays in languages that are understood by the government.

So the Ruach Ha’Qodesh defends you, and He makes a demand on the government.

Watch this.

He tells the government, “You told me as a citizen this is mine. If I’m sick, I’m supposed to be healed. If I’m confused, I’m supposed to get wisdom. If I’m depressed, I’m supposed to be set free. If I got demons harassing me, I’m supposed to be delivered. You said it in Your constitution.”

So He’s making the argument on behalf of the citizen.

The Father looks at the citizen and says, “But you rebelled against Me. You have no right to be here. Why would I give you the right to demand anything from this government?”

Suddenly this guy speaks up.

HalleluYah.

Why does He speak up?

Because the Bible says He ever lives. There’s a Mediator in the court between the Ruach Ha’Qodesh and the Father. His Name is Yahusha Ha’Mashiach. And Yahusha tells the Father, “Two thousand years ago I took care of the rebellion of this kid. His sins are forgiven. He’s got full citizen status again, and he comes in My Name.”

HalleluYah.

Come on, give Elohim a shout tonight.

And the Father is known as the righteous Judge. He gives rights.

And the Father says to the citizen, “You have whatsoever you desire.”

Yahusha claps His hands.

The Ruach Ha’Qodesh shouts glory.

And the citizen goes and tells the world, “Look what Elohim has done.”

Come on, give Elohim a hand. Thank You.

EAGLES DON’T EAT DEAD THINGS




My brothers and my sisters, allow me to begin tonight with a declaration, not a suggestion, not a motivational thought, but a truth governed by law. Consistency is not an emotion. Consistency is a law. And anytime you attempt to live by emotion what was designed to function by law, frustration is guaranteed. This is why many people start well but do not finish strong. They confuse inspiration with discipline, excitement with commitment, and motivation with purpose.




The greatest enemy of human progress is not failure. It is not lack of opportunity. It is not even fear. The greatest enemy of human progress is emotional leadership, allowing how you feel to decide what you do.




YIRMEYAHU (Jeremiah) 17:9 said it clearly when he wrote, “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; who can know it?” In other words, if you follow your feelings, your feelings will betray you. Feelings are poor leaders. They were never designed to be in charge. Elohim never intended mankind to live by moods. He intended mankind to live by principles.




Scripture says, “As long as the earth remains, seed time and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night shall not cease.” BERE’SHIYTH (Genesis) 8:22. Notice, Elohim did not say, “When you feel like it.” He established laws that function whether you like them or not. The sun rises without consulting your emotions. Gravity works whether you believe in it or not. And consistency operates the same way. It is not something you feel. It is something you align with.




Many people say, “I just don’t feel motivated anymore.” That statement reveals a misunderstanding of life. Motivation was never meant to carry destiny. Motivation is temporary. Purpose is permanent.




Elohim never told YAHUSHA (Joshua), “Feel strong and courageous.” He said, “Be strong and very courageous; this cepher of the Torah shall not depart from your mouth.” YAHUSHA (Joshua) 1:7-8. Why? Because courage is not a feeling. It is a decision anchored in obedience to principle.




Let me say this carefully. Any life built on motivation will eventually collapse because motivation depends on circumstances, applause, encouragement, and results. But consistency depends on conviction.




Paul said, “I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of Elohim in Mashiach Yahusha.” PHILIPPIYM (Philippians) 3:14. He did not say, “I press when I feel like it.” He pressed because pressing was aligned with his calling.




This is why the eagle becomes our master teacher. The eagle does not wake up in the morning and ask, “Do I feel like flying today?” Flying is not an activity to the eagle. It is an expression of its nature. Eagles are consistent because they operate according to design.




When Elohim speaks in DEVARIYM (Deuteronomy) 32:11, he says, “As an eagle stirs up its nest, flutters over its young, spreads out its wings, taking them up, carrying them on its wings, so YHWH alone led him.” Elohim compares himself to an eagle not because of emotion, but because of precision, order, and consistency. Consistency is simply obedience repeated daily.




Yahusha said, “If you continue in my word, then you are my disciples indeed.” YOCHANAN (John) 8:31. Notice the word continue. Not visit, not sample, not try, continue. Continuity is the evidence of true belief. Anyone can start. Only the convinced continue.




Some of you are exhausted not because life is hard, but because you are trying to use emotions to do the work of laws. You wake up one day excited, another day discouraged, one day focused, another day distracted. But the kingdom of Elohim does not run on feelings.




Paul says, “For the kingdom of Elohim is not in word, but in power.” QORINTIYM RI’SHON (1 Corinthians) 4:20. And power is released through order, not impulse.




Elohim is a God of consistency. Malachi says, “I am YHWH, I change not.” MAL’AKIY (Malachi) 3:6. IVRIYM (Hebrews) 13:8 declares, “Mashiach Yahusha is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” If you were created in his image, inconsistency is not your nature. Instability is not your design.




The problem is not that you cannot be consistent. The problem is that you have been trained to live below your design. When you rely on motivation, you become a slave to circumstances. When you rely on principles, you become master over circumstances.




Yahusha said, “The wise man built his house upon the rock.” MATTITHYAHU (Matthew) 7:24. The storms came to both houses, the one built on feeling and the one built on law. The difference was not the storm. The difference was the foundation.




Consistency is not something you beg Elohim for. It is something you align your life with. Elohim does not anoint disorder. He anoints obedience. He does not bless inconsistency. He blesses faithfulness.




Scripture says, “Moreover, it is required in stewards that one be found faithful.” QORINTIYM RI’SHON (1 Corinthians) 4:2. Faithful does not mean perfect. Faithful means dependable, predictable, stable, governed by truth.




So tonight, we are not here to get excited. Excitement fades. We are here to realign because once you align with law, you no longer need motivation. The law will carry you when feelings fail you. The eagle does not flap harder when tired. It adjusts to the wind.




And before you learn how to be consistent, you must first understand this foundational truth. Consistency is not an emotion you summon. It is a law you submit to.




My brothers and sisters, if discipline were the real issue, then the most disciplined people would always be the most fulfilled. And we know that is not true. There are people who wake up early, work hard, stay busy, and yet remain frustrated, unproductive, and unfulfilled. Why? Because discipline without direction is dangerous. Activity without assignment is exhausting. And effort without vision leads to burnout.




The Bible never commands discipline first. It commands vision. Scripture says where there’s no vision, the people perish. MISHLEI (Proverbs) 29:18. It does not say where there is no discipline. It does not say where there is no money. It does not say where there is no education. It says where there is no vision, no clear picture of purpose, no understanding of assignment. People lose restraint, direction, and consistency.




Many people believe they lack discipline. But the truth is they lack clarity. Discipline is sustained by meaning. You will always find energy for what matters to you.




Yahusha endured the cross not because it was easy, but because IVRIYM (Hebrews) 12:2 tells us, “For the joy that was set before him, he endured the cross.” Vision gave him endurance. Purpose gave him persistence. Assignment gave him strength.




You do not quit because you are weak. You quit because you are confused. You stop because you do not know why you started. The moment vision becomes vague, discipline becomes optional.




This is why Elohim never sends his people without revelation. When Mosheh asked Elohim who sent him, Elohim said, “I AM THAT I AM.” SHEMOTH (Exodus) 3:14. Elohim revealed identity before assignment. Because when identity is clear, obedience becomes natural.




Vision is not ambition. Vision is not a wish. Vision is not a goal written on paper. Vision is the ability to see your future before you arrive there. Vision is single sight. This is why the word division comes from the word di-vision, two visions. Whenever you have more than one vision competing in your life, you will be inconsistent. You will start and stop. You will advance and retreat. You will be busy but unstable.




The eagle teaches us this law. Scientists say the eagle can see five miles away and still focus on one target. It is aware of everything but focused on one thing. That is the secret of consistency. Consistency is not about doing many things repeatedly. It is about doing the right thing repeatedly.




Most people fail not because they are lazy, but because they are scattered. James said a double-minded man is unstable in all his ways. YA’AQOV (James) 1:8. Double-minded means double visioned.




When Elohim called Abraham, he gave him a picture, descendants as the stars, land as far as his eyes could see. Elohim did not say, “Work harder.” He said, “Lift up your eyes now and look.” BERE’SHIYTH (Genesis) 13:14. Vision precedes movement. You cannot run effectively if you do not know where you are going. You cannot be consistent if your destination keeps changing.




Some of you are inconsistent because you are trying to please too many people. You have adopted visions that are not yours. Parents’ visions, society’s visions, friends’ expectations. But purpose is personal. Elohim never gives a crowd assignment to an individual. He gives an individual assignment to a crowd.




Paul said, “This one thing I do.” PHILIPPIYM (Philippians) 3:13. Not ten things, not everything, one thing. Discipline collapses when vision is borrowed. You cannot sustain passion for what you did not conceive. This is why Elohim deposits vision in the spirit, not in the environment.




Habakkuk said, “Write the vision, and make it plain though it tarries; wait for it.” CHABAQQUQ (Habakkuk) 2:2. Why wait? Because vision has a timetable and discipline is required only when vision delays manifestation.




If you are struggling with consistency, do not ask Elohim for more strength. Ask him for clearer sight. Ask him to refine your assignment. Ask him to remove competing visions.




David said, “One thing have I desired of YHWH, that will I seek after.” TEHILLIYM (Psalms) 27:4. One thing. Seekers of one thing become masters of consistency. The problem is not that you cannot discipline yourself. The problem is that you have not yet decided what deserves your life. Once vision becomes clear, discipline becomes automatic. When assignment is certain, persistence becomes natural. When purpose is defined, quitting becomes illogical.




Consistency is not sustained by pressure. It is sustained by purpose. And until vision is restored, discipline will always feel forced. But when vision is restored, effort becomes worship, repetition becomes joy, and obedience becomes freedom.




My brothers and sisters, let me take you deeper now. Because until you understand design, you will continue to struggle with consistency. The greatest revelation you can ever receive about your life is not what you can do, but what you were designed to do.




When a person operates outside of design, effort increases and results decrease. When a person operates within design, consistency becomes effortless.




The eagle is consistent because the eagle is faithful to its design. An eagle does not attempt to live like a duck, nor does it envy the pigeon. It does not apologize for flying high, and it does not compete with birds that were not built for its altitude. The eagle was designed for the heights, and therefore it thrives where others struggle.




Isaiah captured this truth when he wrote, “They that wait upon YHWH shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles.” YESHA’YAHU (Isaiah) 40:31. Notice Elohim did not say, “They shall flap like chickens.” He said, “They shall mount up.” Mounting is elevation without strain. Consistency is natural when behavior aligns with nature.




Fish do not struggle to swim. Birds do not struggle to fly. And human beings were not designed to struggle with purpose.




BERE’SHIYTH (Genesis) 1:26 tells us that Elohim said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness, and let them have dominion.” Dominion is not survival. Dominion is mastery. Dominion is control. Dominion is consistency in authority. When you are inconsistent, it is not because you are incapable. It is because you are disconnected from your original design.




Many people are trying to force themselves to be consistent through willpower. But willpower is not sustainable. Design is. When you try to live at an altitude lower than your calling, your spirit becomes restless. That restlessness is not rebellion. It is misalignment. The reason you cannot stay comfortable in mediocrity is because heaven never designed you for it.




Eagles do not fit in nests forever. Nests are temporary training grounds, not permanent residences.




Yahusha understood this. That is why he said, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me, and to finish his work.” YOCHANAN (John) 4:34. Notice obedience was nourishment to him. Why? Because he was operating according to design. When purpose becomes your food, consistency becomes your appetite. You no longer need to be pushed. You are pulled by assignment.




Let me say this plainly. You cannot be consistent at an altitude you are not built for. Some of you are trying to live beneath your capacity, and that is why you are unstable. You are bored, distracted, unfulfilled, and inconsistent, not because you lack discipline, but because your spirit is suffocating. Eagles suffocate at low altitudes. They are built with lungs that require thin air. That is why other birds cannot survive where eagles thrive.




Elohim designs every assignment with a matching environment. David was anointed king while still in the field because shepherding developed skills kingship required. Joseph was consistent in prison because prison was preparation, not punishment. The environment did not determine their consistency. Their design did.




Paul said, “For we are his workmanship, created in Mashiach Yahusha for good works, which Elohim prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” EPH’SIYM (Ephesians) 2:10. Prepared beforehand, designed in advance, assigned intentionally.




When you live beneath your design, you must constantly force yourself to keep going. But when you live within your design, consistency becomes your default setting. This is why identity is more powerful than effort. When you know who you are, you know how to behave. When you doubt who you are, you negotiate with discipline.




The eagle never debates whether to fly. Flying is not an option. It is an expression. In the same way, when you discover your Elohim-given assignment, obedience stops being a burden and becomes a privilege.




Yahusha said, “I must work the works of him who sent me while it is day.” YOCHANAN (John) 9:4. He did not say, “I might.” He said, “I must.” Purpose creates inevitability.




Some of you are inconsistent because you are trying to live someone else’s calling. You are comparing your altitude to another bird’s wingspan. But comparison is the enemy of consistency. When you try to imitate another person’s assignment, you abandon your own design.




Paul warned us when he said, “They measure themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.” QORINTIYM SHENIY (2 Corinthians) 10:12. Consistency is not something you manufacture. It is something you uncover.




The moment you align your life with your design, resistance decreases and endurance increases. When the eagle spreads its wings, it does not fight the wind, it rides it. The very resistance that stops other birds becomes the eagle’s advantage.




So stop trying to force consistency through pressure. Discover your altitude. Identify your assignment. Reclaim your design. When you live where you were created to live, consistency will no longer be a struggle. It will be your nature.




My brothers and sisters, there is a great deception in our generation. And it is this. Many people believe they are tired because they are doing too much. But I have discovered in my years of leadership and study that fatigue is rarely the result of work. Fatigue is usually the result of distraction.




You are not exhausted because life is demanding. You are exhausted because your focus is divided.




The eagle teaches us a powerful law. Focus conserves energy. When the eagle sets its sight on its prey, everything else becomes irrelevant. The eagle does not negotiate with distractions. It does not reconsider its target halfway down. It does not pause because of noise, wind, or resistance. Once the target is chosen, the dive is inevitable. That is why the eagle never misses its prey. Focus creates accuracy, and accuracy produces efficiency.




Scripture affirms this law. Yahusha said, “If your eye is single, your whole body shall be full of light.” MATTITHYAHU (Matthew) 6:22. Notice he did not say your mind, your emotions, or your circumstances. He said your body. In other words, when focus is unified, even your physical strength responds. But when vision is divided, strength leaks out of your life.




Many people are weak not because they are incapable, but because they are unfocused.




Paul understood this principle when he wrote, “This one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before.” PHILIPPIYM (Philippians) 3:13. He did not say, “These many things I attempt.” He said, “This one thing I do.”




Focus is the discipline of elimination. It is not about adding more activities. It is about removing unnecessary ones.




Let me say something that may shock you. Busyness is not a sign of productivity. It is often a sign of confusion. The enemy does not need to stop you if he can distract you. He does not need to destroy your dream if he can divide your attention.




That is why Yahusha warned Martha, “You are worried and troubled about many things, but one thing is needed.” LUQAS (Luke) 10:41-42. Many things create anxiety. One thing creates peace.




The eagle is aware of everything, but it sees only one thing. Awareness is not the same as focus. Many people confuse the two. They say, “I have many interests.” Interests are dangerous when they compete with assignment.




Elohim never called you to do everything. He called you to do something well.




QOHELETH (Ecclesiastes) 3:1 tells us, “To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven.” Purpose has timing, and timing requires focus. Fatigue enters your life when you try to live in multiple seasons at once. You cannot sow, reap, rest, and build all at the same time.




The eagle does not hunt while molting. It does not mate while chasing prey. It understands seasons. When you violate seasons, you violate strength.




Isaiah said, “He gives power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increases strength.” YESHA’YAHU (Isaiah) 40:29. But notice this promise is connected to those who wait, not those who rush.




Many of you are tired because you’re emotionally multitasking. You are mentally in the future, emotionally in the past, physically in the present, and spiritually nowhere.




Focus gathers the soul. David understood this when he prayed, “Unite my heart to fear your name.” TEHILLIYM (Psalms) 86:11. A divided heart is a drained heart. A united heart is a powerful heart.




When the eagle dives, it does not flap wildly. It tucks its wings and allows gravity and wind to work together. Focus reduces effort.




This is why Yahusha said, “My yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” MATTITHYAHU (Matthew) 11:30. A yoke only works when two things move in the same direction. When your life is yoked to purpose, movement becomes lighter.




Let me challenge you. You do not need more time, more energy, or more motivation. You need fewer targets. You need to decide what deserves your best years.




Focus is not a restriction. It is a liberation. It frees you from the tyranny of options.




IVRIYM (Hebrews) 12:1 tells us, “Let us lay aside every weight, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us.” Weights are not sins. They are unnecessary burdens. Many of your activities are not sinful. They are simply irrelevant.




The eagle never apologizes for ignoring the pigeons. It knows that distraction is costly. And until you learn to say no to good things, you will never have the strength to pursue the great thing Elohim assigned you.




Focus does not make you narrow. It makes you powerful.




So if you are tired tonight, do not ask Elohim for rest. Ask him for clarity. Ask him to remove competing visions. Ask him to restore single sight. Because when focus is restored, energy returns. And when focus is sustained, consistency becomes natural.




My brothers and sisters, allow me to touch a matter that determines whether consistency survives or dies in your life. Many people begin well, but over time they lose momentum, passion, and discipline, not because they are weak, but because they are malnourished. You cannot be consistent on empty input. You cannot sustain a vision on stale information, and you cannot maintain altitude if you are feeding on what is dead.




The eagle teaches us a powerful principle here. The eagle does not eat carcasses. The eagle does not feed on leftovers. The eagle does not survive on what used to live. Vultures eat dead things. Eagles eat living things. This is not accidental. It is by design. The eagle’s metabolism requires fresh life to sustain its strength. In the same way, your spirit requires fresh revelation to sustain consistency.




Yahusha said, “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of Elohim.” MATTITHYAHU (Matthew) 4:4. Notice he did not say, “That proceeded.” He said, “That proceeds,” continuous, present, living.




Revelation is not something you receive once and survive on forever. Revelation must be renewed. Vision must be fed. Purpose must be watered. Many people are inconsistent because they are trying to live today on yesterday’s inspiration. They are trying to run today on last year’s revelation. But Elohim never designed truth to be stored like canned food. Truth is living bread. Yahusha said, “I am the bread of life.” Bread must be eaten daily. Manna spoiled when it was hoarded. Why? Because dependence is daily.




When you stop feeding your vision, your discipline begins to starve. This is why people relapse. This is why people quit. This is why people become negative, cynical, and discouraged. They are not evil. They are underfed.




MISHLEI (Proverbs) 29:18 says, “Where there is no vision, the people cast off restraint.” Restraint disappears when vision is no longer alive.




Let me say this clearly. What you listen to determines what you live.




Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Elohim. ROMAIYM (Romans) 10:17. If faith comes by hearing, then fear comes by hearing too. Discouragement comes by hearing. Doubt comes by hearing. The question is not whether you are being influenced. The question is by what?




The eagle does not hunt once a week. It feeds regularly. And in the same way, consistency is not sustained by occasional inspiration. It is sustained by daily exposure.




David said, “Your word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” TEHILLIYM (Psalms) 119:105. A lamp only works when it is on. If you turn it off, darkness returns, not because darkness is powerful, but because light is absent.




Many people are feeding on conversations that kill vision, news that kills hope, associations that poison discipline, and then they wonder why they cannot stay consistent. Dead words produce dead dreams.




Yahusha said, “The words that I speak to you, they are spirit, and they are life.” YOCHANAN (John) 6:63. If the words you consume do not give life, they will drain it.




This is why the eagle protects what it eats. It does not scavenge. It hunts intentionally. It chooses its source. In the same way, you must become intentional about your inputs. What you allow into your mind will eventually determine what comes out of your life.




MISHLEI (Proverbs) 4:23 warns us, “Guard your heart with all diligence; for out of it flow the issues of life.” Guarding the heart means controlling access.




Some of you are asking Elohim to help you be consistent while Elohim is asking you to change your diet. You cannot feed on negativity and expect productivity. You cannot feed on doubt and expect discipline. You cannot feed on fear and expect faith.




Eliyahu collapsed under the tree not because his calling was over, but because his strength was gone. And Elohim did not rebuke him. Elohim fed him. “Arise and eat, because the journey is too great for you.” MELAKIYM RI’SHON (1 Kings) 19:7. Strength returned when nourishment returned. Consistency collapses when nourishment stops.




That is why scripture says, “As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that you may grow thereby.” KĔPHA RI’SHON (1 Peter) 2:2. Growth is connected to appetite. If you lose hunger for truth, you will lose strength for obedience.




The eagle eats live food because it was designed for live altitude. And you must feed your spirit with living truth if you intend to remain consistent at the level Elohim has called you to live. Fresh revelation fuels faithful repetition. Without it, discipline becomes mechanical, joyless, and short-lived.




So do not blame yourself for inconsistency until you examine your diet. What are you listening to? Who are you listening to? What are you feeding on daily? Because consistency is not sustained by effort. It is sustained by life.




My brothers and sisters, allow me now to correct one of the greatest misconceptions about consistency. Many people believe that consistency is built in comfort. They believe that once life becomes easier, discipline will become natural. But I’ve discovered, and the eagle confirms, that comfort does not produce consistency. Pressure does.




Storms are not interruptions to your progress. Storms are instruments of your development.




The eagle is the only bird that does not run from the storm. When dark clouds gather and the winds begin to roar, pigeons scatter, ducks hide, and chickens panic. But the eagle does something strange. It turns toward the storm. Why? Because the eagle understands a law that most humans do not. Resistance can become assistance if you know how to position yourself.




Isaiah speaks with prophetic accuracy when he says, “They that wait upon YHWH shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles.” YESHA’YAHU (Isaiah) 40:31. Notice mounting up is not flapping harder. Mounting up is being lifted. Storms create updrafts, and updrafts create elevation. What others fear, the eagle uses. What others escape, the eagle rides.




Many of you lose consistency when pressure appears. When opposition comes, when finances tighten, when people leave, when results delay, you interpret resistance as a sign to stop. But resistance is not a signal to retreat. It is often confirmation that you are on the right path.




Yahusha said, “In the world, you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” YOCHANAN (John) 16:33. He did not say you might have tribulation. He said you will. Why? Because pressure is part of purpose.




Storms reveal commitment. Anyone can be consistent when applause is loud and progress is visible. But true consistency is forged when obedience continues without encouragement.




James tells us, “Count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.” YA’AQOV (James) 1:2. Patience is not passivity. Patience is endurance under pressure.




Let me say this carefully. If storms destroy your consistency, then your consistency was never solid.




The eagle does not become stronger in calm air. It becomes stronger by stretching its wings against resistance. In the same way, your character is not revealed in ease. It is revealed in adversity. David did not learn consistency in the palace. He learned it in the field and the cave. Joseph did not learn faithfulness on the throne. He learned it in prison.




Storms remove excuses. When pressure comes, everything unnecessary falls away. Distractions lose their appeal. Weak commitments are exposed. This is why Elohim allows storms, not to punish you, but to purify you.




Peter says, “Though now for a little while you have been grieved by various trials, that the genuineness of your faith may be found to praise, honor, and glory.” KĔPHA RI’SHON (1 Peter) 1:6-7.




The eagle does not fight the storm. It adjusts its wings. That is the key. Many people fight pressure emotionally instead of repositioning spiritually. They complain instead of calibrating. They panic instead of praying.




But Yahusha slept in the storm because he understood authority. He did not deny the storm’s presence. He simply refused to let it dictate his peace.




Consistency is not proven when life is smooth. Consistency is revealed when obedience continues without results, when discipline continues without applause, when faith continues without evidence.




IVRIYM (Hebrews) 11:1 says, “Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” If you can see it, you do not need faith. And if you do not need faith, consistency will not be tested.




Some of you are asking Elohim to remove the storm. But Elohim is saying, “Use it.” The storm you are in right now has the potential to lift you to an altitude you have never reached.




That pressure at work, that resistance in relationships, that challenge in your calling, it is not sent to stop you. It is sent to shape you. Eagles love storms because storms eliminate competition. Other birds cannot survive there.




And storms will eliminate distractions, impostors, and parasites in your life. They clarify your calling. They refine your focus. They strengthen your resolve.




So do not curse the storm. Do not resent the pressure. Do not interpret difficulty as failure. Learn from the eagle. Spread your wings. Adjust your posture. And let the storm do what it was designed to do, lift you.




My brothers and my sisters, if willpower were enough, then everyone who made a New Year’s resolution would be successful. If desire alone could sustain discipline, then intention would automatically become manifestation. But history has proven that willpower is weak when environment is strong.




You cannot permanently overcome an environment with temporary determination. Environment always wins.




The eagle understands this law instinctively. The eagle does not try to live consistently in low places. It chooses altitude. It builds its nest in high, cold, inaccessible places. Why? Because environment protects identity. The eagle does not trust discipline to defend its destiny. It trusts placement.




Many of you are asking Elohim for strength, but Elohim is asking you to change locations, mentally, socially, spiritually.




Yahusha said something profound when he declared, “Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” MATTITHYAHU (Matthew) 6:21. In other words, what surrounds you shapes what controls you. Your heart does not drift randomly. It follows value, and value is reinforced by environment.




This is why consistency collapses when people remain surrounded by contradiction. Let me say this plainly. You cannot be consistent in an inconsistent environment. You cannot live a disciplined life while entertaining undisciplined influences.




MISHLEI (Proverbs) 13:20 warns us, “He who walks with wise men will be wise, but the companion of fools will be destroyed.” Notice, wisdom is transferable through association. Foolishness is contagious through proximity.




The eagle does not argue with pigeons. It does not debate with chickens. It simply leaves.




Some of you are inconsistent because you keep trying to convince people who are not designed to understand your altitude. You are explaining vision to people who love comfort. You are explaining discipline to people who worship convenience. And then you wonder why your consistency weakens. Every time you negotiate your assignment, you dilute your resolve.




Environment is not just physical. It is emotional, relational, informational, and spiritual.




David prayed, “Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly.” TEHILLIYM (Psalms) 1:1. Counsel is environment. Advice is environment. Conversation is environment. The voices you allow to speak into your life will either reinforce your discipline or erode it.




Elohim knew this law, which is why he commanded Israel to leave Egypt completely. He did not allow them to partially relocate. He said, “Come out from among them, and be separate.” QORINTIYM SHENIY (2 Corinthians) 6:17. Why? Because you cannot sustain a new identity in an old environment.




Egypt represented a mindset, not just a location. And until the environment changed, consistency would be impossible.




Some of you are spiritually saved, but environmentally enslaved. You love Elohim, but your surroundings oppose your obedience. You want consistency, but your environment celebrates excuses.




And Elohim is saying to you tonight, you cannot soar where you are nesting.




Eagles do not build nests in valleys. Valleys are dangerous. Valleys invite predators. Valleys limit vision. Consistency thrives where standards are high.




This is why the Bible says iron sharpens iron. MISHLEI (Proverbs) 27:17. Dull environments produce dull lives. Sharp environments produce sharp focus. When standards rise, behavior follows. When standards fall, discipline collapses.




This is why leadership is not about motivation. It is about culture.




Yahusha chose twelve men and changed their environment. He pulled them out of fishing nets, tax booths, and political ambition, and placed them in daily exposure to truth. He did not inspire them once a week. He lived with them. Why? Because transformation is environmental. You become what you consistently experience.




Many people are waiting to feel strong enough to change environments. But strength comes after the change. You do not escape gravity by jumping harder. You escape gravity by changing altitude. And when you move to the right environment, discipline becomes easier because resistance decreases.




The eagle does not apologize for isolation. It understands that altitude requires separation. Loneliness is often the price of consistency. But loneliness is temporary. Compromise is permanent.




IVRIYM (Hebrews) 10:24 says, “Let us consider one another to provoke unto love and good works.” You need people who provoke discipline, not pity. People who challenge standards, not excuse weakness.




So stop blaming yourself for inconsistency when the real issue is environment. Change what you hear. Change who you sit with. Change what you tolerate. Change what you repeatedly see. Because once environment aligns with purpose, consistency no longer feels forced. It feels natural.




My brothers and sisters, let me now take you into a principle that separates amateurs from leaders, followers from pioneers, and dreamers from builders. Consistency is not sustained by inspiration. It is established by training.




Anything that still depends on motivation has not yet been trained. And anything that is not trained will eventually fail under pressure.




Training is the process of turning intention into instinct. Training removes emotion from obedience. Training produces automatic behavior.




This is why Elohim never asks his people to try to obey him. He commands them to learn his ways.




Scripture says, “Teach me your way, O YHWH, and I will walk in your truth.” TEHILLIYM (Psalms) 86:11. Walking in truth is the result of training, not excitement.




The eagle teaches us this law clearly. When eaglets are born, they are not immediately thrown into the sky. They are fed. They are nurtured. They are observed. But there comes a time when comfort becomes dangerous. The nest that once protected them now limits them. And when that time comes, the mother eagle begins training, not by explaining, but by forcing engagement.




Training is often uncomfortable because training exposes weakness.




IVRIYM (Hebrews) 12:11 tells us, “No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Nevertheless, afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness.” Notice discipline produces fruit afterward. If you quit during training, you will never enjoy the harvest of consistency.




Many people want consistency without process. They want mastery without repetition. They want authority without obedience.




But Yahusha himself was trained. Scripture says, “Though he was a son, yet he learned obedience by the things which he suffered.” IVRIYM (Hebrews) 5:8. If the Son of Elohim submitted to training, who are we to think we can bypass it?




Training removes choice. That is its power. When something is trained, you no longer debate whether to do it. You simply do it. This is why athletes do not decide during competition whether to practice discipline. The decision was already made in training.




Consistency is not decided daily. It is decided once and then reinforced through training.




The eagle does not ask the eaglet if it wants to fly. Purpose does not consult comfort.




When Elohim trained Israel, he gave them laws, rhythms, feasts, Sabbaths, and patterns, not suggestions. Why? Because freedom is sustained by structure.




Paul said, “I discipline my body, and bring it into subjection, lest after preaching to others, I myself should be disqualified.” QORINTIYM RI’SHON (1 Corinthians) 9:27. Discipline is not punishment. It is protection.




Some of you are inconsistent because too many things in your life are optional. You negotiate with your calling. You debate with your schedule. You ask your feelings for permission. Training eliminates negotiation.




When prayer is trained, you pray whether you feel like it or not. When study is trained, you learn whether you are inspired or not. When excellence is trained, quality becomes your reflex.




Elohim is not impressed by bursts of passion. He is pleased by faithful repetition.




Yahusha said, “He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much.” LUQAS (Luke) 16:10. Faithfulness is trained in small things. Consistency is not built in grand moments. It is built in daily patterns that no one applauds.




The eagle’s training process looks harsh to the untrained eye, but it is loving. Comfort without training produces dependency. Training produces dominion.




That is why Elohim sometimes removes support systems, familiar routines, and safety nets, not to harm you, but to mature you.




“As a man disciplines his son, so YHWH your Elohim disciplines you.” DEVARIYM (Deuteronomy) 8:5. Training is Elohim’s way of preparing you for autonomy.




When training is complete, consistency becomes effortless. You no longer struggle to obey. You no longer wrestle with discipline. You no longer depend on motivation. You simply live in alignment with your design.




So do not resent training seasons. Do not escape discomfort prematurely. Do not abandon routines too quickly. Training is doing its work. And once training is complete, consistency will no longer be something you force. It will be something you are.




My brothers and sisters, let me now address a silent killer of consistency, burnout. Many people quit not because they are finished, but because they are exhausted. They mistake weariness for completion, and fatigue for failure. But quitting is rarely the solution Elohim designed. Renewal is.




The eagle teaches us one of the most profound lessons in nature. When the eagle grows old, when its feathers become heavy, worn, and ineffective, it does not try to fly harder. It does not compete with younger eagles. It does not pretend nothing is wrong. The eagle retreats to a quiet place high in the mountain, and there it undergoes renewal. This is not weakness. This is wisdom.




Scripture confirms this principle. Isaiah declares, “They that wait upon YHWH shall renew their strength.” YESHA’YAHU (Isaiah) 40:31. Notice the word renew, not replace. Elohim does not discard you when you are tired. He restores you.




Burnout is not a sign you should quit. It is a sign you should withdraw and be renewed.




Yahusha himself practiced this law. Though crowds followed him and demands were endless, scripture says he often withdrew to lonely places and prayed. LUQAS (Luke) 5:16. He did not withdraw because he lacked purpose. He withdrew because he understood sustainability.




Consistency without renewal leads to collapse. Renewal without quitting leads to longevity.




Many people abandon vision when what they really need is rest. They abandon discipline when what they really need is recalibration.




David cried out, “Restore unto me the joy of your salvation.” TEHILLIYM (Psalms) 51:12. He did not ask for a new calling. He asked for restored joy. Joy fuels endurance.




Elohim never designed you to run endlessly without replenishment. Even the land was commanded to rest. “Six years you shall sow your field, but the seventh year you shall let it rest.” SHEMOTH (Exodus) 23:10-11. If land requires renewal, how much more the human soul?




Rest is not rebellion. Rest is obedience. When you are tired, do not quit your assignment. Return to your source.




Eliyahu wanted to die under the tree, but Elohim fed him, rested him, and then sent him back to assignment. “Arise and eat, for the journey is too great for you.” MELAKIYM RI’SHON (1 Kings) 19:7. Elohim did not change the journey. He strengthened the traveler.




Burnout comes from giving without replenishment. Renewal restores perspective, passion, and precision. It sharpens focus. It revives hunger. It reminds you why you started. And after renewal, consistency becomes joyful again.




Now, let me bring all these principles together because revelation without structure becomes inspiration without application. The eagle does not live randomly. It lives by design. And if you are going to live consistently, you must adopt what I call the eagle consistency code, a kingdom framework that governs sustained excellence.




First, identity before effort. Know who you are before you decide what to do. Sons do not negotiate obedience. Servants do.

Second, vision before discipline. Clarity fuels consistency. Write the vision. See the target. Eliminate alternatives.

Third, focus before energy. Energy follows attention. Remove distractions and fatigue will decrease.

Fourth, input before output. Feed daily on living truth. Starved vision produces stalled discipline.

Fifth, pressure before elevation. Storms are not curses. They are catalysts. Use resistance to rise.

Sixth, environment before willpower. Change what surrounds you and behavior will follow naturally.

Seventh, renewal before burnout. Withdrawal is not quitting. Restoration precedes longevity.




These are not suggestions. They are laws. And laws do not require belief to function. They require alignment.




Yahusha said, “If you continue in my word, you are my disciples indeed.” YOCHANAN (John) 8:31. Continuation is proof of discipleship.




Consistency is not heroic effort. It is humble obedience repeated daily.




My brothers and sisters, let me close with this charge. Life will not demand consistency from you. You must decide it. Destiny does not respond to wishes. It responds to alignment. You will either live reacting to circumstances, or you will live governed by purpose.




Pigeons survive day to day. Eagles commit for life. Pigeons wait for conditions to change. Eagles change conditions by altitude. You were not created to struggle endlessly. You were designed to soar consistently.




Elohim says in Deuteronomy, “I set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life.” DEVARIYM (Deuteronomy) 30:19. Consistency is a choice. Altitude is a decision. Discipline is alignment. Excellence is obedience.




Do not leave this moment inspired. Leave it decided. Decide what altitude you will live at. Decide what vision deserves your life. Decide what distractions must die. Decide that motivation will no longer govern your obedience.




And when you do, you will discover that consistency is no longer something you force. It will become something you are.




So join me at the top, where the air is thin, the vision is clear, the storms lift you, and consistency is natural.




My friends, I now leave you with this, the eagle’s assignment. For it is not enough to simply hear these words today and admire the eagle’s ability to soar. You have been given the same calling, the same mandate, the same assignment to rise above mediocrity and to take flight into your true purpose.




Just as the eagle has been created for a purpose greater than itself, so too have you been designed with a higher calling.




Scripture tells us in YIRMEYAHU (Jeremiah) 29:11, “For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.” This plan, this destiny, is not a suggestion. It is a divine assignment.




The eagle’s assignment is to soar high, far above the clutter of the earth. Your assignment is to rise above the noise, the distractions, and the lies of the enemy. You have a higher purpose to fulfill.




Whether it is in the marketplace, in your family, in your community, or in the nations, Elohim has given you wings, wings of vision, wings of purpose, wings of potential.




The question is, will you fly? Will you allow yourself to be held back by fear, by failure, by what others think? Or will you embrace the assignment of soaring, of consistency, and of eternal impact?




Yahusha said in YOCHANAN (John) 14:12, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that believes on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do, because I go unto my Father.” The kingdom mandate upon your life is clear. You are called to greater works. You are called to do what the world has not seen. But to do this, you must fly with purpose.




The enemy will try to convince you that you are not worthy, not qualified, or too old to rise. But remember, the eagle’s flight begins with a decision, not with perfection.




If Elohim has called you to it, he will equip you for it. If he has promised you victory, he will bring it to pass. But it begins with your choice.




I challenge you today, as I have challenged so many before, to decide to soar higher. Decide to live above the ordinary. Decide to live consistently, not by whims or emotions, but by the eternal, unshakable truth of Elohim’s word.




The eagle does not wait for a perfect moment. It makes the moment.




So as you leave this place today, I want you to go with this. You are an eagle. You are made to soar. You are destined for greatness. You are called to live consistently in purpose and to rise above the limitations of this world.




Declare today that you will fly. You will not settle for the ground. You will not allow yourself to be distracted by the noise of the pigeons below. You will live with a vision that reaches beyond the horizon. You will train with discipline. You will renew when you need it. And you will maintain your consistency for the long haul.




And just as the eagle becomes a symbol of strength, resilience, and wisdom, let your life be a symbol of Elohim’s faithfulness. Let your consistency be a testimony to the world that nothing is impossible with Elohim.




Let us pray together, brothers and sisters, that we may rise to the heights Elohim has called us to.




Father Elohim, we come before you today acknowledging the greatness of your design. You have called us to be more than just survivors. You have called us to be eagles, to rise above, to soar, to fulfill the assignments you have placed in our hearts. We declare today that we will no longer be content with mediocrity. We will no longer accept the limitations that others place on us. We will soar with purpose.




Elohim, renew our minds, strengthen our spirits. Help us to see the vision you have set before us and to focus on it with unyielding commitment. Teach us to fly when others are content with crawling. Teach us to soar when others are grounded. Train us to be consistent, to stay the course, and to rise even in the face of adversity.




YHWH, we commit ourselves to your plan. We will be disciplined like the eagle. We will embrace the storm and rise above it. We will renew ourselves in your presence and continue our journey of growth and excellence. We declare, as eagles, we will fly above the noise, above the distractions, and fulfill our purpose with clarity, consistency, and victory.




In Yahusha’s name we pray. Amen.




As we conclude, remember this. The eagle does not worry about its ability to fly. It simply knows it was created to soar. The same is true for you. You were not created to settle for less. You were not created to merely exist. You were designed to live with purpose, consistency, and excellence.




Go now with the knowledge that you are an eagle, not a pigeon. Go now with the understanding that consistency, discipline, renewal, and focus will be the keys that unlock your potential. Live consistently, live with purpose, live with vision, and live to make an impact that will last for generations to come.




Elohim bless you, and may you soar to the heights he has prepared for.
