Speaker 1 (00:00):
Next on Paula, God himself out of eternity, selected for oneself,
formed and fashioned you.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Exactly the way you are.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
You will never curse yourself again. You will never curse
the day you were born. You'll never speak bad about
yourself again. You'll never spend time with people who can't
discern who you are. You won't waste a life with
things that don't matter, with things that are frivolous and
not material to the things of the spirit, of the
(00:30):
manifestation of what God's reason for your being is to.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Confronted.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Welcome to Paula today. God's word is your answer. I'm
getting ready to preach in the sanctuary from my unleashed
conference powerful time, and I have a word for you.
Have you ever felt like does my life matter? Am
I important? What am I doing here? I feel like
I'm just wandering in a wilderness aimlessly. You know, every
(01:17):
aspect of your life has an important component you might
not even fully understand. But I'm telling you you are
purposed by God and your position has been determined by Him,
just like Esther. Esther was raised up for such a
time as this. She was an orphan, all her story,
(01:38):
all her background. It didn't match anything of greatness. But
we wouldn't even have a relationship with our Savior if
it wasn't for Esther, because all of the Israelites would
have been wiped out. But God had put her in
this position above everyone else. You know, God planned all
your days before one of them ever came into being.
And the Bible declares that before you were formed in
(02:00):
your mother's womb, it was God who put all the
parts together. It was God that determined your days. And
when we talk about purpose, it means you're supreme reason
for being. Think about that. You're not just here to
take up space, breathe oxygen, live in a nice house,
have a few kids. You're here with a supreme reason
for being that fits into the bigger plan of God.
(02:23):
And I'm going to help you discover that today. I'm
going to help make sure that you are positioned for
purpose and that you don't miss your timing. This is
your time. God is doing something so radical, so transformative,
and you are part of that great purpose and plan
of God. Now let's get into the word. There is
(02:47):
never an easy thing in my day. You want to
know why, because I know I'm from eternity with a purpose,
and I.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Have so focused like flint.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
I am like a person that is so focused like
flint that Hell can go right back to hell because
it's not going to get an upper hand on this person.
It's not going to get an upper hand on you,
because you're going to come forth as a witness to
God's provision, God's protection, God's purpose.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Come on, in God's promises in your life, in the
name of Jesus. Come on, you are a person that
is carrying a divine.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Assignment of God. All right, let me prove it to you.
Sawone blessed is the man that walks on the council
of the ungodly or sits in the seat of the scornful.
But his delights in the law of the Lord, and
he doesn't meditate day and night. And you'll bring forth
his fruit in his season, so Ecclesiastics three eleven. He
has made everything beautiful in his time. He's also set
eternity in the hearts of me. So your spirit has
(03:43):
a memory of your future that your mind struggles to comprehend.
Because you are a sent person with a purpose to fulfill.
And God raises up as people to seize these divine opportunities.
And there are moments in history. I think you should
use this for story life. There are moments in history
when heaven and earth collide, when ordinary people step into
(04:05):
extraordinary purpose. And Esther was one of those persons. She
didn't seek the throne. She didn't I'll tell you the statement.
She didn't seek the throne. She didn't ask for the battle,
she didn't seek either way. She was obedient and God
placed her in the right place at the right time
(04:25):
for a divine assignment. And so God strategically places you
and positions you. God has written your story. He's already
written your story. So if people go why is this
church called story life? Because your story has already been
written and all you have to do is come under
(04:49):
a revelatory teaching of understanding who you are so you
can walk in alivenment and then everything begins to explode.
So the Book of Esther isn't just a story. It's
a revelation of how God works behind the scenes, setting
you up for a moment to define your destiny and
that of others. And who knows if I'm not come
to the Kingdom for such a time as this. And
(05:11):
I want you to hear that today that you're in
a royal position. Think about that, not because of what
you've done, but because of what God has done.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
So as we unpack.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
This, I'm going to give you three quick points. Ready,
you're a person of purpose. You're prepared for the purpose,
and your obedience purpose will put you in position. So
your person of purpose, let me work it. You're sent
person with the purpose to fill. That's your fact, and
the purpose is bigger than the person. She wasn't elevated
because she's just pretty. She wasn't positioned because of mor
(05:45):
de kai or any reason. She was positioned because God
used all the components divine alignment to save his people
from the destruction hayman Agog the agitator, the destroyer, that
Amlakite from the spirit of Amlakite, the eternal enemy to God,
not to the people of Israel, to God. And because
(06:08):
that they were an enemy to God's people. And mordecaia
I said, if you remain silent, relief and deliverance will come,
but you might perish. In other words, this is not optional, Esther,
you don't get a choice in this, for the purpose
precedes the person. So the purpose, the intention, the aim,
what was put forth. What was placed by design preceded
(06:31):
the person. God was not waiting for you to arrive,
to find something for you to do. Psalone thirty nine sixteen.
Your I saw my unformed body. All the days ordained
for me were written in your book before one of
them came to be. Am I walking out my day?
Am I walking out my day? Because every one of
them were ordained, Which I'm going to get to. God's
(06:53):
original intention is his final decision. God never changes his
mind about you. Now, if you get that revelation, when
you fall, you'll get back up.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
If you get that revelation.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Then you'll know, oh my gosh, when I did that.
You'll stop beating yourself up and letting the enemy guilt
you and shame you, and you'll receive the mercy and
the grace of God upon your life. And that's not
an open reason that's saying because that mercy and that
grace makes you want to love God all the more.
It makes you want to do all the more.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
But think about what.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
I'm saying here. So he says, all my days were ordained.
So God's original intention is final decision. And the design
means to create, execute, fashion or construct according to the
plant Psalm two seven, God says, I'll declare the decree.
The Lord has said unto me, that were my son,
and this day have I begun thee. So let me
(07:47):
not break down that. And there's about ten other scriptures
I'd put up there to lay it out before the
Father and the sun ever created, the sun, the moon,
the stars, the trees, the animals, the plants, man, woman, wife, ribs.
They made an everlasting covenant. They didn't use man for it.
They didn't use angels. They made an everlasting covenant between
(08:09):
the father and the son. Covenant is an agreement, a
league of compact. And this covenant was the inner workings
of the enter, theastic covenant that were very simply made.
The father decreed and the son agreed. Now, if you
don't understand the power of a decree, you won't understand
either the power of agreement. The father decreed, the son agreed.
(08:33):
And when the Father declared these words, the word, the
pattern Son Jesus, the eternal logos, the full discourse of
the word, he spoke to you, the ram, a word
which was already in him, the logos. I'm trying to
I'm trying to okay, but with one of the little
(08:56):
like literal things. The people within a faith camp in
a movement that if you were Christian in the eighties
and nineties, I'll understand this. They talked a lot about
these words rama and logos, but it wasn't really done well.
So now we think arama is like a oh something
that comes out to you three dimensional right out of
(09:16):
the word, like we think, But that's not the fullness
of it. The logos is it would take me an
hour to sit here is a full discourse of it.
And the rama is the revealed part in that specific
iiros that is to be revealed within that logos. So
all things are summed up in heaven and in Earth
(09:39):
through Christ. Right, So you with me what I'm saying here.
So when the Father declared these words over the word,
who's the word, guys, Jesus? Okay, in the beginning was
the word? The word was with God, and the word
was God the patterns on the eternal logos. He spoke
to you because where were you in eternity? How did
you get here? How'd you get here?
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Where were you being held?
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Bible's very clear where you were being held.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
You were held in the Word the logos.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
You are a raima that is sent into the earth
for thank you for something very specific. You didn't come
from your mom and daddy. You didn't come from outer space.
You aren't some little particle floating around. If they would
be spiritual, be able to put up the burst of
light and not the silly stuff, you would have seen
(10:29):
that the spirit enters in and you came straight from Jesus.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
You'll go right back to Jesus.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
You came from the Word as a word. I pray
you're being blessed by the Word today. Remember you're being
positioned for a purpose that has a time with it
and God has great things for you. I would love
(10:57):
for you to be a partner with Paul White Ministry.
Partnership matters. It makes a difference. They're great benefits. They're
things that partners have access to that others don't. But
not only that, they're eternal rewards. This ministry is a
sole winning ministry. We are preaching the gospel our primary
call in one hundred and ninety countries. Think about that,
(11:20):
and I can't go if you don't send so thank
you for standing with us. But our humanitarian is also
making a huge difference. Think about this. In four years,
thirty million pounds have gone out to feed a family
of four for two weeks. All every day, we're making
a difference around the world in the prisons, preaching the gospel,
(11:43):
taking goods, furniture to children that are sleeping on floors,
to single parents, to a domestic violence victim, to human
and sex tract ficking victims. We are doing so many things.
Whether it's Israel, Chimney Rock, North Carolina, Hawaii, whatever that
(12:05):
place might be, Go to PAULA White dot org and
get the information on the benefits of partners. Now, let's
get back into the word he spoke to you.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Who is in him?
Speaker 1 (12:22):
I'm gonna keep working it. First Ephesians chapter one. Let's
look at verse three and four. Blessed be the God
and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, who had blessed us.
What where did he bless you? He blessed us with
all what he brush you with all spiritual blessed. Wait,
(12:43):
first off, blessed barocked. He's speaking over you.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
He barocked.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
It means he's speaking over you right now, and he
had spoken over you. That's what blessed means. It's not
like he gave you a car. He spoke over you.
My gosh, you'n't here when I'm saying prophet. If you
said I'm gonna buy your house, or I'm gonna speak
over you, I'd said, speak over me, because if you
(13:08):
speak over me, I'm by myself twenty houses.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
If you just speak over me, he had spoken.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Over you, that's what blessed. He's speaking over you, he barrock,
he's speaking over you. He's blessing. He's speaking over me
with what a few, with all spiritual blessings? And where
where is Christ? Where is Christ? Right now?
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Where's the tabernacle? I'm the tabernacle.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
He's in me.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
You're the tabernacle. He's in you.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
He had bless me with those spiritual blessings. Watch watch,
because he spoke to you who was in him Ephesians one,
three and four. I'm just gonna take you a little deeper.
Blessed me the God, the Father of our Lord, Jesus Christ,
who blessed us.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
Where did he bless us? Where are we in Christ?
According as he had chosen us in him?
Speaker 1 (14:23):
So I'm blessed? Where in Christ I'm chosen? Where in Christ?
When was i chosen thank you before the foundations of
the world, that I should be holding without blame before
Him and love. Let me keep going Eph'sian one four.
Even as in his love he chose, he actually hand
(14:43):
picked me out for himself as his own in Christ.
Before before the Creator formed you, he already knew you,
knew you, has not had like some head knowledge. It's
Adam knew Eve and conceived Seth YadA. God was intimate
win you before you came into earth. The word is
(15:04):
a word of intimacy, the word that's where there's a
hunger in every person's heart to go back to an
intimate place. My favorite place, Stannie. The hardest thing for
me is getting out and functioning. My favorite place is
the presence of God. Ask anyone in my life, like,
if I could just hold up for my entire life,
(15:25):
I would love that, But that's not how it works.
I love that place because that's a familiar place. Because
I've only been in this earth fifty nine years. I've
been in Him for eternity. So the Almighty spoke to
you about a plan for your life before any bones
(15:46):
begin to grow in the womb of your mother. You
are a special one of kind word out of the
mouth of God himself before you ever had a body.
And if you can never doubt that for a moment,
because God could never make a person like you, you
are too special. You existed in him, You existed with
Him before the appearing of the worlds. But now you've
(16:06):
been manifested in time with the body. He's prepared, a
very unique and precious body in a very peculiar set
time to show his love, to show his mercy, and
to show himself in a time space world Ephesians one four.
According as he has chosen, it's a primary preposition. In
it's e n it denotes a fixed position in place,
(16:29):
time and position. Even by further definition, in expresses the
relationship of rest in means by my resting, I was
chosen resting in a fixed state and position in him.
It's a verb. It means I was selected for oneself
to pick out or to choose for oneself. My God,
(16:50):
you aren't hearing me the word. That means that the
God went, this is what I have need of in
the earth. So I'm going to give her the kind
of personality. I'm going to give her the kind of stamina.
I'm gonna let her life be one adverse thing after
another to form her and fashion her as a weapon
for me.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
I'm going to cause her to be gracious.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
I'm going to cause her.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
To be compassionate.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
I'm going to cause her to sit where they've sat,
so she'll understand when I position her in a place,
what she's standing for. So I say that because whenever
you start to feel something, when you get the revelation
that God himself, out of eternity, selected for oneself, formed
(17:39):
and fashioned you exactly the way you are, you will
never curse yourself again. You will never curse the day
you were born. You'll never speak bad about yourself again.
You'll never spend time with people who can't discern who
you are. You won't waste a life with things that
don't matter, with things that are frivolous and material to
(18:00):
the things of the spirit, of the manifestation of what
God's reason for.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Your being is. People are so blind.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
May your eyes fall off and you see who you
really are.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
May you see that you were selected?
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Not listen, listen. I didn't like it. I was little,
and I was I was tiny when I was small,
like I's like Nick tiny, And so they never picked
me for dodgeball, and I cried. They never picked me
to run because I wasn't fast. I can do cartwheels,
(18:39):
and I cried. And they didn't ever pick me to
be on the team.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
That's awesome.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
They didn't pick me.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
That's awesome.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
They didn't pick me, and all that kind of stuff
they formed in me that I thought I needed man's.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Approval to be somebody.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
I was already somebody, and Man had to reject me
to form me into what that somebody was sent to do.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
You have been hand selected by God himself. You've been chosen.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
You've been hand picked with all your mistakes, all your failures,
all your inadequacies, all your insecurities, everything about you.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
Y'all better be seated. You've not chosen me, but I've chosen.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
You, John fifteen sixteen.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
His decree is your personal destiny.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
It's your foreordained ministry, it's your lifelong assignment, it's your
divine prescription.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
I won't even go into it.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
The rest y'all know, Jeremiah one to five, before I
formed you in.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Your mother's womb.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Come on, maybe I'll just go there.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Maybe I'll just go there.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Before I formed you, I squeezed you into shape. I
pressed you, I molded you, I determined you, I resoluted you.
I knew thee, which means I ascertained by seeing you.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
I looked at the situation.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
I saw you before you ever even entered in, and
I called you forth. God saw you, which means he
observed you, He cared for you, he recognized you, He
creatively instructed you. This is what it means. He designated you,
he appointed you, and he marked you. That's why Hell
hates you, because if you could see from Heaven's perspective
(20:25):
right now.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
You don't look like most people. You've been marked by
the greatness of God. You are wrapped in robes of
righteousness and garments of salvation.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
If you could begin to see why you are so
intimidating to the enemy, because you are chosen by God
for a specific assignment in this art. Ask talk to me,
Joseph Daniel, come on, Neamiah, talk to me right now.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
He observed you. What it says, God known you before
he observed you.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
He reserved you before thou camest fourth, which means to
go cause it, to bring out, to direct and appear.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
God directed you. He calls you and he made you appear.
You didn't come out of nowhere.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
You came out of the loins of Jesus Christ, formed by.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
An agreement and a covenant and.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
A compact that he made with a son, and the
son made with a father. And you're contained within the
logos the raym of word for a scent time, for
such a time as this, you will not miss a moment.
Your job's not worth it, your career is not worth it.
Come on, that friend's not worth it, That hater certainly
not worth it. Anything material, anything in this world that
(21:37):
does not glorify and exhalt God is not worth you
missing your moment. I pray you've enjoyed the message today
and more than just enjoyed that it's hit your spirit,
and that you recognize you're drawing a line in the
sand and saying, devil back off. I understand. I'm called
(22:00):
by God, I've been chosen, wired framed by God, and
I'm in position. I'm not going to have misalignment, but
I'm going to be in alignment with God. I am
positioned for God's purpose, his supreme reason for being, his
intention in the earth for such a time as this,
and I declare to you it is your time. Don't
(22:20):
let any weapon formed against you prosper in the name
of Jesus. Let every spirit of fear, doubt, confusion, chaos
be broken off of you. Whatever's trying to hold you
back and hinder you is going to be broken off
you right now. You will not miss your moment. I
declare it, and according to Job twenty two, verse twenty eight,
it is established in Jesus' name. What a great time
(22:46):
we're living in, a time to make a difference, to
preach the gospel around the world. But I need your
help to do that. I would ask you to prayer Forlly.
Consider becoming a partner, a life covenant partner with paula
White industry. This is good, good ground. There are great
benefits to that. There's access that other people don't have.
(23:07):
There's portals for you, there's teaching for you, there's discounts
for you. There's all kinds of benefits. But the greatest
one is not natural. It's spiritual. Because if I do
things alone, we're limited. If we do it with ten
we can do things. But if I did it with
ten thousand, think about how we would transform the world.
(23:27):
And we are and every time you give it makes
a difference because we're preaching the gospel. Our primary my
primary calling is to make sure that we evangelize the
world and that we preach the Gospel. And in doing that,
we're in one hundred and ninety countries right now. We
are teaching, preaching and seeing souls saved. So think about
(23:50):
when you stand before the Lord and you get a
soul winner's crown, say what is this for? And literally
no exaggeration, there are millions of people who have come
to the Lord because of this ministry, which has been
on television for over almost thirty years, and we've been
in ministry for forty years. So as you do that,
you are the difference maker because you became a partner
(24:12):
and then our humanitarian Think about this number in four years,
thirty million pounds of food. Think about five pounds of food.
Think about five pounds steak or something roast beef, whatever
you're thinking. Now take that to thirty million. That's massive
amount of food. And yes, it's to feed the hungry,
(24:33):
but it's to show the love of God. And whether
it's a haircut and sneakers and an outfit and a
backpack of sending a child back to school, our turkey
at Thanksgiving, our toy at Christmas, or at the disaster.
In the most devastating times of people's life, we're there.

Next on Paula, God himself out of eternity, selected for oneself,
formed and fashioned you.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Exactly the way you are.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
You will never curse yourself again. You will never curse
the day you were born. You'll never speak bad about
yourself again. You'll never spend time with people who can't
discern who you are. You won't waste a life with
things that don't matter, with things that are frivolous and
not material to the things of the spirit, of the
(00:30):
manifestation of what God's reason for your being is to.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Confronted.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Welcome to Paula today. God's word is your answer. I'm
getting ready to preach in the sanctuary from my unleashed
conference powerful time, and I have a word for you.
Have you ever felt like does my life matter? Am
I important? What am I doing here? I feel like
I'm just wandering in a wilderness aimlessly. You know, every
(01:17):
aspect of your life has an important component you might
not even fully understand. But I'm telling you you are
purposed by God and your position has been determined by Him,
just like Esther. Esther was raised up for such a
time as this. She was an orphan, all her story,
(01:38):
all her background. It didn't match anything of greatness. But
we wouldn't even have a relationship with our Savior if
it wasn't for Esther, because all of the Israelites would
have been wiped out. But God had put her in
this position above everyone else. You know, God planned all
your days before one of them ever came into being.
And the Bible declares that before you were formed in
(02:00):
your mother's womb, it was God who put all the
parts together. It was God that determined your days. And
when we talk about purpose, it means you're supreme reason
for being. Think about that. You're not just here to
take up space, breathe oxygen, live in a nice house,
have a few kids. You're here with a supreme reason
for being that fits into the bigger plan of God.
(02:23):
And I'm going to help you discover that today. I'm
going to help make sure that you are positioned for
purpose and that you don't miss your timing. This is
your time. God is doing something so radical, so transformative,
and you are part of that great purpose and plan
of God. Now let's get into the word. There is
(02:47):
never an easy thing in my day. You want to
know why, because I know I'm from eternity with a purpose,
and I.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Have so focused like flint.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
I am like a person that is so focused like
flint that Hell can go right back to hell because
it's not going to get an upper hand on this person.
It's not going to get an upper hand on you,
because you're going to come forth as a witness to
God's provision, God's protection, God's purpose.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Come on, in God's promises in your life, in the
name of Jesus. Come on, you are a person that
is carrying a divine.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Assignment of God. All right, let me prove it to you.
Sawone blessed is the man that walks on the council
of the ungodly or sits in the seat of the scornful.
But his delights in the law of the Lord, and
he doesn't meditate day and night. And you'll bring forth
his fruit in his season, so Ecclesiastics three eleven. He
has made everything beautiful in his time. He's also set
eternity in the hearts of me. So your spirit has
(03:43):
a memory of your future that your mind struggles to comprehend.
Because you are a sent person with a purpose to fulfill.
And God raises up as people to seize these divine opportunities.
And there are moments in history. I think you should
use this for story life. There are moments in history
when heaven and earth collide, when ordinary people step into
(04:05):
extraordinary purpose. And Esther was one of those persons. She
didn't seek the throne. She didn't I'll tell you the statement.
She didn't seek the throne. She didn't ask for the battle,
she didn't seek either way. She was obedient and God
placed her in the right place at the right time
(04:25):
for a divine assignment. And so God strategically places you
and positions you. God has written your story. He's already
written your story. So if people go why is this
church called story life? Because your story has already been
written and all you have to do is come under
(04:49):
a revelatory teaching of understanding who you are so you
can walk in alivenment and then everything begins to explode.
So the Book of Esther isn't just a story. It's
a revelation of how God works behind the scenes, setting
you up for a moment to define your destiny and
that of others. And who knows if I'm not come
to the Kingdom for such a time as this. And
(05:11):
I want you to hear that today that you're in
a royal position. Think about that, not because of what
you've done, but because of what God has done.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
So as we unpack.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
This, I'm going to give you three quick points. Ready,
you're a person of purpose. You're prepared for the purpose,
and your obedience purpose will put you in position. So
your person of purpose, let me work it. You're sent
person with the purpose to fill. That's your fact, and
the purpose is bigger than the person. She wasn't elevated
because she's just pretty. She wasn't positioned because of mor
(05:45):
de kai or any reason. She was positioned because God
used all the components divine alignment to save his people
from the destruction hayman Agog the agitator, the destroyer, that
Amlakite from the spirit of Amlakite, the eternal enemy to God,
not to the people of Israel, to God. And because
(06:08):
that they were an enemy to God's people. And mordecaia
I said, if you remain silent, relief and deliverance will come,
but you might perish. In other words, this is not optional, Esther,
you don't get a choice in this, for the purpose
precedes the person. So the purpose, the intention, the aim,
what was put forth. What was placed by design preceded
(06:31):
the person. God was not waiting for you to arrive,
to find something for you to do. Psalone thirty nine sixteen.
Your I saw my unformed body. All the days ordained
for me were written in your book before one of
them came to be. Am I walking out my day?
Am I walking out my day? Because every one of
them were ordained, Which I'm going to get to. God's
(06:53):
original intention is his final decision. God never changes his
mind about you. Now, if you get that revelation, when
you fall, you'll get back up.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
If you get that revelation.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Then you'll know, oh my gosh, when I did that.
You'll stop beating yourself up and letting the enemy guilt
you and shame you, and you'll receive the mercy and
the grace of God upon your life. And that's not
an open reason that's saying because that mercy and that
grace makes you want to love God all the more.
It makes you want to do all the more.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
But think about what.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
I'm saying here. So he says, all my days were ordained.
So God's original intention is final decision. And the design
means to create, execute, fashion or construct according to the
plant Psalm two seven, God says, I'll declare the decree.
The Lord has said unto me, that were my son,
and this day have I begun thee. So let me
(07:47):
not break down that. And there's about ten other scriptures
I'd put up there to lay it out before the
Father and the sun ever created, the sun, the moon,
the stars, the trees, the animals, the plants, man, woman, wife, ribs.
They made an everlasting covenant. They didn't use man for it.
They didn't use angels. They made an everlasting covenant between
(08:09):
the father and the son. Covenant is an agreement, a
league of compact. And this covenant was the inner workings
of the enter, theastic covenant that were very simply made.
The father decreed and the son agreed. Now, if you
don't understand the power of a decree, you won't understand
either the power of agreement. The father decreed, the son agreed.
(08:33):
And when the Father declared these words, the word, the
pattern Son Jesus, the eternal logos, the full discourse of
the word, he spoke to you, the ram, a word
which was already in him, the logos. I'm trying to
I'm trying to okay, but with one of the little
(08:56):
like literal things. The people within a faith camp in
a movement that if you were Christian in the eighties
and nineties, I'll understand this. They talked a lot about
these words rama and logos, but it wasn't really done well.
So now we think arama is like a oh something
that comes out to you three dimensional right out of
(09:16):
the word, like we think, But that's not the fullness
of it. The logos is it would take me an
hour to sit here is a full discourse of it.
And the rama is the revealed part in that specific
iiros that is to be revealed within that logos. So
all things are summed up in heaven and in Earth
(09:39):
through Christ. Right, So you with me what I'm saying here.
So when the Father declared these words over the word,
who's the word, guys, Jesus? Okay, in the beginning was
the word? The word was with God, and the word
was God the patterns on the eternal logos. He spoke
to you because where were you in eternity? How did
you get here? How'd you get here?
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Where were you being held?
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Bible's very clear where you were being held.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
You were held in the Word the logos.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
You are a raima that is sent into the earth
for thank you for something very specific. You didn't come
from your mom and daddy. You didn't come from outer space.
You aren't some little particle floating around. If they would
be spiritual, be able to put up the burst of
light and not the silly stuff, you would have seen
(10:29):
that the spirit enters in and you came straight from Jesus.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
You'll go right back to Jesus.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
You came from the Word as a word. I pray
you're being blessed by the Word today. Remember you're being
positioned for a purpose that has a time with it
and God has great things for you. I would love
(10:57):
for you to be a partner with Paul White Ministry.
Partnership matters. It makes a difference. They're great benefits. They're
things that partners have access to that others don't. But
not only that, they're eternal rewards. This ministry is a
sole winning ministry. We are preaching the gospel our primary
call in one hundred and ninety countries. Think about that,
(11:20):
and I can't go if you don't send so thank
you for standing with us. But our humanitarian is also
making a huge difference. Think about this. In four years,
thirty million pounds have gone out to feed a family
of four for two weeks. All every day, we're making
a difference around the world in the prisons, preaching the gospel,
(11:43):
taking goods, furniture to children that are sleeping on floors,
to single parents, to a domestic violence victim, to human
and sex tract ficking victims. We are doing so many things.
Whether it's Israel, Chimney Rock, North Carolina, Hawaii, whatever that
(12:05):
place might be, Go to PAULA White dot org and
get the information on the benefits of partners. Now, let's
get back into the word he spoke to you.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Who is in him?
Speaker 1 (12:22):
I'm gonna keep working it. First Ephesians chapter one. Let's
look at verse three and four. Blessed be the God
and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, who had blessed us.
What where did he bless you? He blessed us with
all what he brush you with all spiritual blessed. Wait,
(12:43):
first off, blessed barocked. He's speaking over you.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
He barocked.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
It means he's speaking over you right now, and he
had spoken over you. That's what blessed means. It's not
like he gave you a car. He spoke over you.
My gosh, you'n't here when I'm saying prophet. If you
said I'm gonna buy your house, or I'm gonna speak
over you, I'd said, speak over me, because if you
(13:08):
speak over me, I'm by myself twenty houses.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
If you just speak over me, he had spoken.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Over you, that's what blessed. He's speaking over you, he barrock,
he's speaking over you. He's blessing. He's speaking over me
with what a few, with all spiritual blessings? And where
where is Christ? Where is Christ? Right now?
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Where's the tabernacle? I'm the tabernacle.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
He's in me.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
You're the tabernacle. He's in you.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
He had bless me with those spiritual blessings. Watch watch,
because he spoke to you who was in him Ephesians one,
three and four. I'm just gonna take you a little deeper.
Blessed me the God, the Father of our Lord, Jesus Christ,
who blessed us.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
Where did he bless us? Where are we in Christ?
According as he had chosen us in him?
Speaker 1 (14:23):
So I'm blessed? Where in Christ I'm chosen? Where in Christ?
When was i chosen thank you before the foundations of
the world, that I should be holding without blame before
Him and love. Let me keep going Eph'sian one four.
Even as in his love he chose, he actually hand
(14:43):
picked me out for himself as his own in Christ.
Before before the Creator formed you, he already knew you,
knew you, has not had like some head knowledge. It's
Adam knew Eve and conceived Seth YadA. God was intimate
win you before you came into earth. The word is
(15:04):
a word of intimacy, the word that's where there's a
hunger in every person's heart to go back to an
intimate place. My favorite place, Stannie. The hardest thing for
me is getting out and functioning. My favorite place is
the presence of God. Ask anyone in my life, like,
if I could just hold up for my entire life,
(15:25):
I would love that, But that's not how it works.
I love that place because that's a familiar place. Because
I've only been in this earth fifty nine years. I've
been in Him for eternity. So the Almighty spoke to
you about a plan for your life before any bones
(15:46):
begin to grow in the womb of your mother. You
are a special one of kind word out of the
mouth of God himself before you ever had a body.
And if you can never doubt that for a moment,
because God could never make a person like you, you
are too special. You existed in him, You existed with
Him before the appearing of the worlds. But now you've
(16:06):
been manifested in time with the body. He's prepared, a
very unique and precious body in a very peculiar set
time to show his love, to show his mercy, and
to show himself in a time space world Ephesians one four.
According as he has chosen, it's a primary preposition. In
it's e n it denotes a fixed position in place,
(16:29):
time and position. Even by further definition, in expresses the
relationship of rest in means by my resting, I was
chosen resting in a fixed state and position in him.
It's a verb. It means I was selected for oneself
to pick out or to choose for oneself. My God,
(16:50):
you aren't hearing me the word. That means that the
God went, this is what I have need of in
the earth. So I'm going to give her the kind
of personality. I'm going to give her the kind of stamina.
I'm gonna let her life be one adverse thing after
another to form her and fashion her as a weapon
for me.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
I'm going to cause her to be gracious.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
I'm going to cause her.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
To be compassionate.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
I'm going to cause her to sit where they've sat,
so she'll understand when I position her in a place,
what she's standing for. So I say that because whenever
you start to feel something, when you get the revelation
that God himself, out of eternity, selected for oneself, formed
(17:39):
and fashioned you exactly the way you are, you will
never curse yourself again. You will never curse the day
you were born. You'll never speak bad about yourself again.
You'll never spend time with people who can't discern who
you are. You won't waste a life with things that
don't matter, with things that are frivolous and material to
(18:00):
the things of the spirit, of the manifestation of what
God's reason for.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Your being is. People are so blind.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
May your eyes fall off and you see who you
really are.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
May you see that you were selected?
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Not listen, listen. I didn't like it. I was little,
and I was I was tiny when I was small,
like I's like Nick tiny, And so they never picked
me for dodgeball, and I cried. They never picked me
to run because I wasn't fast. I can do cartwheels,
(18:39):
and I cried. And they didn't ever pick me to
be on the team.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
That's awesome.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
They didn't pick me.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
That's awesome.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
They didn't pick me, and all that kind of stuff
they formed in me that I thought I needed man's.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Approval to be somebody.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
I was already somebody, and Man had to reject me
to form me into what that somebody was sent to do.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
You have been hand selected by God himself. You've been chosen.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
You've been hand picked with all your mistakes, all your failures,
all your inadequacies, all your insecurities, everything about you.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
Y'all better be seated. You've not chosen me, but I've chosen.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
You, John fifteen sixteen.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
His decree is your personal destiny.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
It's your foreordained ministry, it's your lifelong assignment, it's your
divine prescription.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
I won't even go into it.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
The rest y'all know, Jeremiah one to five, before I
formed you in.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Your mother's womb.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Come on, maybe I'll just go there.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Maybe I'll just go there.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Before I formed you, I squeezed you into shape. I
pressed you, I molded you, I determined you, I resoluted you.
I knew thee, which means I ascertained by seeing you.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
I looked at the situation.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
I saw you before you ever even entered in, and
I called you forth. God saw you, which means he
observed you, He cared for you, he recognized you, He
creatively instructed you. This is what it means. He designated you,
he appointed you, and he marked you. That's why Hell
hates you, because if you could see from Heaven's perspective
(20:25):
right now.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
You don't look like most people. You've been marked by
the greatness of God. You are wrapped in robes of
righteousness and garments of salvation.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
If you could begin to see why you are so
intimidating to the enemy, because you are chosen by God
for a specific assignment in this art. Ask talk to me,
Joseph Daniel, come on, Neamiah, talk to me right now.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
He observed you. What it says, God known you before
he observed you.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
He reserved you before thou camest fourth, which means to
go cause it, to bring out, to direct and appear.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
God directed you. He calls you and he made you appear.
You didn't come out of nowhere.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
You came out of the loins of Jesus Christ, formed by.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
An agreement and a covenant and.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
A compact that he made with a son, and the
son made with a father. And you're contained within the
logos the raym of word for a scent time, for
such a time as this, you will not miss a moment.
Your job's not worth it, your career is not worth it.
Come on, that friend's not worth it, That hater certainly
not worth it. Anything material, anything in this world that
(21:37):
does not glorify and exhalt God is not worth you
missing your moment. I pray you've enjoyed the message today
and more than just enjoyed that it's hit your spirit,
and that you recognize you're drawing a line in the
sand and saying, devil back off. I understand. I'm called
(22:00):
by God, I've been chosen, wired framed by God, and
I'm in position. I'm not going to have misalignment, but
I'm going to be in alignment with God. I am
positioned for God's purpose, his supreme reason for being, his
intention in the earth for such a time as this,
and I declare to you it is your time. Don't
(22:20):
let any weapon formed against you prosper in the name
of Jesus. Let every spirit of fear, doubt, confusion, chaos
be broken off of you. Whatever's trying to hold you
back and hinder you is going to be broken off
you right now. You will not miss your moment. I
declare it, and according to Job twenty two, verse twenty eight,
it is established in Jesus' name. What a great time
(22:46):
we're living in, a time to make a difference, to
preach the gospel around the world. But I need your
help to do that. I would ask you to prayer Forlly.
Consider becoming a partner, a life covenant partner with paula
White industry. This is good, good ground. There are great
benefits to that. There's access that other people don't have.
(23:07):
There's portals for you, there's teaching for you, there's discounts
for you. There's all kinds of benefits. But the greatest
one is not natural. It's spiritual. Because if I do
things alone, we're limited. If we do it with ten
we can do things. But if I did it with
ten thousand, think about how we would transform the world.

soul winner's crown, say what is this for? And literally
no exaggeration, there are millions of people who have come
to the Lord because of this ministry, which has been
on television for over almost thirty years, and we've been
in ministry for forty years. So as you do that,
you are the difference maker because you became a partner
(24:12):
and then our humanitarian Think about this number in four years,
thirty million pounds of food. Think about five pounds of food.
Think about five pounds steak or something roast beef, whatever
you're thinking. Now take that to thirty million. That's massive
amount of food. And yes, it's to feed the hungry,
(24:33):
but it's to show the love of God. And whether

backpack of sending a child back to school, our turkey
