[Music] thank you for joining us for another power packed message from dr miles monroe provided by monroe global incorporated and monroeglobal.com we transform followers into leaders and leaders into agents of change we hope that this message is a blessing to you as you advance your life and discover your purpose now let's go into the message so we're going to be focusing on rediscovering the leadership attitude of kings write that down what are we going to focus on rediscovering the leadership attitude of kings oh that's going to be so good i can't wait first of all i want you to write a statement down this statement will become the anchor of our entire conference this week and here it is and remember this as we discuss the spirit of leadership cultivating the right attitudes that affect human action in other words what makes a person a leader whether they are 16 or 61 is that they develop some attitudes that affect people what makes government call on me to do training why would i get a letter from a president of a country and he flies me in first class to come and speak to his cabinet i was born in an island at seven miles wide i still live there why do heads of states invite me in to talk to them about leadership because something happened to me when i was 15 years old something happened to me and i'm going to talk to you about that because you see i was transformed from an island boy to a diplomat my government of the bahamas has already awarded me the highest award of our country they did that before i was 41. i was the youngest of my country's history to receive the highest award in my nation then i received an award from the queen of england it's called the obe award the order of the british empire it is given to those who are considered to be global leaders when the queen awarded me that award queen elizabeth i was wondering why she gave it to me because i'm just getting started so i come to you not as someone who's trying to fake it listen to me because i used to be just like you and i'm going to teach you how to become just like me i'm going to teach you how to be transformed from just making a living to impacting life you were not just born to pay bills that's what sheep do here's something to remember write this down and i call it understanding the spirit of leadership and here it is an army of sheep led by a lion will always defeat an army of lions led by a sheep i repeat an army of lions led by a sheep will always be defeated by an army of sheep led by a lion in other words the issue is not who's following is who's in leadership leadership determines everything you can turn an army of sheep into a mentality of lions if the leader has a lion mentality so if you want to be successful in life make sure that the person you're following is a true leader because not everybody in charge is a leader i'm going to prove it with a statement made by the great leader of all times he said if the blind lead now wait a minute according to him the leader could be blind he said if the leader is blind then whoever is following that leader will fall into the same ditch the leader falls into so if the blind leads the blind they both fall into what the ditch that means that because you are following doesn't mean your leader can see this is why i wrote that book on the power of vision when i train people in business or young people who want to go into business of people who wanted to to start living a life of effectiveness or by trained governments or corporate companies i always recommend that book to them because if i don't deal with vision in those sessions they will lead people into a ditch you have to have a clear vision if you're going to lead people to their destiny here's our philosophy this week i call it the lion in the sheep trapped in every sheep is an undiscovered lion sitter with me trapped in every sheep it's an undiscovered line you know you sitting next to someone who looked like a sheep but you don't know who you're sitting next to i told the story and i will tell the story tonight it's a true story listen carefully a few years ago i was in zimbabwe southern africa i went to speak to a conference in harare south africa in zimbabwe it's a beautiful city i went to the hilton hotel in arari with golden lions out front beautiful it's a fantastic hotel when i walked into that hotel greeted by the host of the conference he said are you ready i said yes and there were 5 000 leaders in an auditorium in that hotel waiting for me i had to teach three times a day they worked me hard and after four days of hard work of training and leadership the host said to me i have an invitation for you from one of our leaders out in the other village he wants you to come out there to teach a session on leadership i said fine i'd be happy to do so so the next morning we woke up at 5 a.m and i thought this was probably about an hour away i was picked up by one of the young men of the ministry in a car that needed to be retired and we drove one hour two hours three hours four hours bumpy roads into the bush and i began to think i think i'm being kidnapped and after five hours of driving far into the forest in the bush in the jungle we arrived to a beautiful village where there was the elders waiting for me the children came and they were singing and welcoming me with fruits and flowers and it was a wonderful experience there in africa and then they took me to a big fat roof building no walls and sitting under that on the ground was over 600 people waiting for me to speak to them and so i was ushered in by the chief of the village and was introduced and began to do a session with them at the end of the session i was the guest of honor for dinner with the chief and when you are the guest of honor you eat things you don't want to talk about because they prepared specifically just for you i ain't going to tell you what i ate because it's not important where's the lower angle you didn't know more but when you had a guest of owning eat some strange things so i had to sit down and receive all of that wonderful hospitality eat things and pray while i was eating and when i was finished as it is their tradition they began to tell me some stories and the chief told me a story that took place in that area and he said it was a real true story that reminded him of what i taught that day and he said that there was a farmer in zimbabwe who was a sheep herder and he kept sheep for many years and he would take him out to graze in the forest area in the hills of zimbabwe and one day while he was out grazing he heard a sound coming from one of the areas in the bush it sounded like a cat and he kept on making this sound like a cat in trouble he walked over to the bush and he moved the bush on the side and he found to his surprise a little cub a little lion a little kitten lying just beautiful little thing and suddenly he he pushed the bush back and he ran because he knew that if the father lion or the motherline was nearby they would kill him and eat him so he ran up on a rock and stayed there never came down his sheep was still grazing down there and he was afraid the sun began to set and he wondered why the lion didn't come back for the cup began to grow dark damp and he knew that if he left that cub there the cub would die and so he came down from the rock very slowly looking this way and that way afraid as he approached the bush he didn't want to leave the little cupboard there by itself and obviously this cub must have been abandoned by the father ma and mother lion and so he put his hands into the bush and he picked up the cub looking left and right he put the cup inside his little ragged shirt and he ran with the sheep following him back to his little village went in this jumped over the fence poured the sheep in the pen and he took the little cub in the house and he began to cuddle the cub and he began to feed the cub and as the cop began to become acquainted with him he began to adapt him as a surrogate mother and he began to feed the cub every day and the cub became very strong again and began to become vital and and then the cop began to grow around the farmhouse and around the sheep and this cub began to go out with the sheep every time the sheep went out to graze the cup would go with the sheep and he would spend all his time with the sheep and he would eat with the sheep and drink with the sheep and sleep with the sheep and he would even stay in the pen with the sheep and after two years he became a beautiful nice young lion when he became so acquainted with the sheep he began to think like the sheep he slept with the sheep ate with the sheep he drank with the sheep and he began to think like the sheep and he never growled he actually began to make sounds like the sheep he thought he was a sheep because he spent all his life with the sheep and as he went out every day to grace with them he would stay out there and be with the sheep and he would try to chew the the green grass and the different leaves he thought he was a sheep and every day he would do this and then one day something happened that he had never seen before and the the chief said that the farmer told him this story that changed his life he said that one day while they were grazing he heard a sound that he had never heard before the sound was like thunder it shook the whole forest it impacted all the echoes among the mountains he became so afraid and suddenly he looked and saw where the sound was coming from and across the river appeared a beast he had never seen before it was the most monstrous beast ugly creature and the creature made this sound that shook the forest and shook the jungle shook all the sheep and the sheep turned around and took off and began to run toward the farmhouse and the little lion that thought he was a sheep that became a big lion he also began to run because he figured if the sheep ran our machine i better run too and so he ran and jumped over the fence with the sheep and they all stayed in the pen and they began to shake and they were so afraid they knew my god are we gonna be we're gonna be destroyed and as he peeped over the pen far in the distance he saw that beast put his head down in the grass when he picked his head up in his teeth was a beautiful little lamb drenched in red blood the beast shook his head as if to say i am the king and he vanished in the forest with that little lamb in his teeth soaked in red blood as the sheep and the little lion shivered with fear behind the pen he was afraid to go out anymore that week the farmer took them to a different area [Music] he thought he was a sheep acted like a sheep smelled like a sheep ache like a sheep thought like a sheep drank like a sheep and so he went with the sheep and they went out to a new area began to eat and feed and suddenly they heard the sound again and he became so afraid he took off the sheep and they jumped over the pan again and they knew my god the beast has come the beast has come and he peeped over the fence and he saw the beast one more time and there was the beast making that sound that shook the forest and as the sound began to shake the forest he put his head down and picked it up and in his beautiful teeth was a beautiful little lamb that had become drenched in red blood and he shook the lamb as if to say i am in charge and he vanished into the forest and the sheep were so afraid they stayed in the pen a little line i thought he was a sheep he began to shiver and shake along with the sheep he thought my god i've never seen such a beast in my life and about two weeks after that they went out finally built a nerve to go out to grace far and wide and as they were grazing again they went to a shallow part of the river to drink and he looked and across before he could drink the piece appeared and that sound came out again that shook the forest and everything around him became so afraid he knew i'm gonna die and the sheep ran so he ran and they ran toward the pen jumped over and they hid behind the wall shivering and the little lion that thought he was a sheep act like a sheep smell like sheep like a sheep he said oh i'm gonna be destroyed and he saw that peace that was the first time he got a good look at the piece's face he had never seen such a monster before he was afraid like the sheep were afraid seven days afterwards they were out grazing and this time they figured they're far away from the monster and a little lined i thought he was a sheep acted like a sheep smell like a sheep ate like a sheep he went down to the river with the sheep to drink and as he leaned over the drink he saw the beast and he jumped up and ran toward the pen and jumped over the fence and he saw the beast he was so afraid he began to shake and then he became confused because he wondered why didn't the sheep run and he was there by himself behind the fence wondering why didn't they see the beast and after his confusion subsided he slowly walked back out to where the sheep was grazing and as he walked toward them he began to make the sound like a sheep to try and communicate with them as to why they didn't see the peace and they didn't run and after a while he became so confused and he went back down to the water to drink because he was thirsty and he leaned over to get a drink and when he leaned over suddenly he saw the beast and he took off when he ran and he ran back to the farmers jumped over the fence and he was confused because the sheep didn't see the beast didn't they see what he saw he was so afraid and after there for hours wandering and puzzled he wondered why doesn't the sheep run didn't they see what he saw eventually wandered back to the flock went in among them and by this time they had grazed down to a very narrow part of the river and he leaned over one more time because he was very thirsty now to take a drink and as he leaned over to take a drink he saw the beast he froze he jumped back and he's about to run when suddenly that noise that sound was across the river again and he became so afraid he knew the river is so narrow if i try to run i'm gonna get eaten like the lambs got eaten and he stood there looking at that beast as that beast made that sound that shook every muscle in his body he knew it's over and the beast did something strange the beast began to walk in the water toward him and as the beast walked he stood there in the middle of the river and he just looked at the little lion that thought he was a sheep acting like a sheep smell like a sheep ate like a sheep sounded like a sheep and he stood there and he made that sound to his face and the sound became so loud he began to tremble and shake and he knew i'm dead he closed his eyes he knew i'm going to be eaten and the beast didn't eat him the beast stepped two steps forward closer to him and by now he could actually feel the vibration of the sound as the beast lifted his head and made the sound his whole body shook with the sound of that powerful voice and he began to wonder i'm gonna die this is it and the beast took one step closer now he's only five feet away as if the beast was making a point telling him try it [Music] and he understood in some strange way that the beast didn't want to eat him the beast wanted him to make the sound and so the beast kept on making the sound and came closer and made the sound and he was so close now he knew that if i don't try to make the sound he's going to kill me and the farm was on the rock watching this play out as these two interesting creatures stood in the river and the beast made that sound he forgot about the sheep as if he was transfixed on this little lion that thought he was a sheep acted like a sheep smelled like a sheep thought like a sheep and he made the sound to the point where the little lion said if i don't try it i'm gonna die and so he barely down deep into his gut and he tried to make the sound before he is killed and and he put all of his strength and he went [Music] bad and that made him conclude i'm dead because i sound just like the sheep with whom i spent all my life with the beast did not respond as he expected the beast took two steps closer and now he could almost smell the heat of his breath as the beast made that sound one more time in his face with all the power and shook every bone in his body and the little line that became a big line i thought it was a sheep acting like a sheep smell like a sheep he thought like a sheep he knew oh god i'm dead and he says okay i'll try one more time and the beast and the beast went and the beast wouldn't eat him the beast had no interest in destroying him so the beast took one step closer and now they almost nose to nose little line i thought he was a sheep acted like a sheep ate like a sheep smelled like a sheep lived like a sheep slapped like a sheep he closed his eyes because he knew him dead but the beast made the sound one more time and he felt it in his face and something happened to that little lion i thought he was a sheep he suddenly became angry not at the beast he became angry at the fact that the beast believed that in him was something he didn't know existed listen to me carefully friends it happened to me you never change until you are angry you will never change what you tolerate the beast refused to believe that the sound he made was his true sound and so the beast kept on making that sound that he believed was deep down in that little line that thought he was a sheep and he kept making that sound until the little line that became a big line i thought the sheep became angry and his anger took a hold of his whole body and suddenly he decided if he believes it's there then it must be there and he dug down deep to a point where he never knew existed as a matter of fact he decided i'm not gonna leave until i make the sound if he believes i can do it then it must be there [Music] because he remembered that what he saw in the water is what he saw with his eyes suddenly he went down deep in the pit of his bowels and suddenly something connected and something began to bubble up on the inside of his internal organs all of his body began to ripple with power he connected with a source of strength he never knew existed his muscles began to shake his whole bone structure began to tremble as if something took over his body and he felt this thing coming up slowly that he never felt before and suddenly with all of his might he went and the beast began to jump and the beast went and he went and the peaceman and he went ah and the piece right suddenly the farmer said he stood there for 25 minutes watching a display of power he had never seen and then suddenly as if instructed by an unseen hand the beast stopped and began to walk backwards toward the jungle and then he stopped and the little lion that became a big lion that thought he was a sheep acted like a sheep thought like a sheep ate like a sheep slept with the sheep all his life he knew that the beast was trying to say something he was telling him are you coming suddenly he became afraid again because he looked at the beast and he had felt something he never felt before he connected with a selfie never knew existed he became so possessed by that power that he felt he had a choice to make and the beast walked back was just a few more steps he's now among the jungle leaves and he stops and he makes the sound one more time are you coming and the little lion that thought he was a sheep acting like a sheep thought like a sheep group with the sheep ate like a sheep suddenly realized he had a decision to make he looked back at the farm where there was a pen to protect him free food provided by the farmer protection from the weather safety in a pen covered from the rain everything provided friendship among sheep they looked at the beast and he saw nothing but jungle and hard work responsibility find your own way he looked back at the farm when he saw a neatly paved road with structures in a house he looked back at the beast and he saw no roads he got to make your own way in that jungle he looked back at the farm and he saw the food provided by the shepherd he looked at the beast and he realized i gotta find my own food out there there was no security in the jungle no safety in the jungle there's no protection in the jungle and he looks back at the farm when he saw everything provided he was domesticated that's what society does with you they domesticate you domestication means they tell you how to act how high to jump how you could jump what you could eat what you can't eat where you could go where you can go to put a fence around you and he knew that if he went back to the farm he wouldn't have to think for himself the farmer could think for him he would never deploy in his future the farmer would plan his future and they looked at the lion and he knew that if i go into the jungle there's no one to protect me no one to plan for me i gotta think for myself design my own destiny and so he looked back at the farm and he looked at the beast he looked at the farmhouse and he looked at the jungle and the farmer told the chief that he saw something he'd never forget he saw him look in the water one more time this time he's never afraid he saw himself he looked at the beast and realized that he is the beast so he turned his back on the farm walked toward the beast the beast made the sound one more time and he made the sound one more time and suddenly he vanished he vanished into the forest with the beast and the beast it's okay and the little lion was seen no more until seven days later they both showed up where the sheep were they made the sound the sheep ran they put their heads down when they raised it up they both had little lambs in their teeth drenched in blood he had become himself when i heard that story i could not forget it as a matter of fact i wrote the story in this book because there in the middle of that jungle in zimbabwe i heard the most important reality of leaders and followers the reason why i came to this conference the reason why i flew here for hours today to get here the reason why i left my wife and my leadership team and my organization and all the businesses that i run reason why i left them to come here is because i'm the beast and i have come to make some noise and by wednesday i'm going to start walking backwards and you got to make a decision before this conference is over you can go back and be domesticated stay on a job where they pay you less than your worth believe other people's opinions about you more than god's opinions or you can decide to leave the safety of society and enter the jungle of responsibility and become the real person that you were born to be i heard some bears around here you see jesus christ it's called the lion of judah and he gonna make some noise this week in this conference [Applause] and you got a decision to make whether you will stay among the sheep and hide behind the pen and stay in the safety of welfare and hide behind the wall of affirmative action oh i ain't talking to nobody or whether you're gonna decide ain't nobody gonna dictate my future i know what i'm talking about no one's gonna tell me what i can or cannot do anymore why because i met the beast and he told me the truth about myself in the book of james there's a verse that changed my life it says the word of god is like water and once a man looks into it and he sees himself it's impossible for him to deny what he saw my job tonight is to lure you to the water and i'm going to allow you to see the beast and you got a choice you can either run from what you saw or you can become what you saw i want to close this first night on some scripture references this is very important touch that for me please i want you to remember this that the lion is the only animal given the distinction of being the king of the jungle i've been to africa many times my wife and i went on a on a safari one day in the karib river on a boat and we spent seven days on a boat and couldn't go in the water because in the water with piranhas and there are crocodiles in the in that river and also snakes and the way they do safari in the river is that you can stay on the boat because you come off you'll die you couldn't go on the land because where you were were wild animals and we saw elephants every day we saw lions we saw all these beautiful animals giraffes out there just in the wild it was your national geographic life i loved it and they warned us not to go on land because these animals were this was the wild jungle and every night we heard the sounds of the lions and one evening at five o'clock in the afternoon the sun was just about to set we saw a pride of lions and then we saw two elephants and the elephant was like ten times the size of a lion it's okay and suddenly the lions decided they're gonna eat this elephant ladies and gentlemen the lions are small little cats and the elephant was like a bulldozer but you can see these four lions deciding you are a meal today and the elephant knew as big as he was he was not the king oh you don't understand you see there's some things in life that look big like an elephant and they can intimidate you if you don't know who you are i sat there on that boat watching from 50 feet away that close in the water and i saw those cats using their strategy creeping from different sides laying in the grass for 10 15 minutes quiet as the bear i mean as the elephant begins to to make sounds he knew threat was around and suddenly as if on a mark of signal they all ran to where the elephant jumped on his cocker's hide and his hide as thick as leather they dug their claws into this leather hide on his hip one vent for the neck and i saw one of those cats put his big claws around the neck couldn't get it around me and he put his teeth in the neck of the elephant and the elephant began to swing him around and all again they began to swing but they wouldn't let go as if to say you are ours i believe god's going to raise some lions tonight [Music] by wednesday because some people who say to their problems i'm going to put my claws in you i'm gonna put my teeth in you and no matter how you shake me i ain't gonna let go until you come down that's the way lions hunt the lions have an attitude that overpowers the elephant it's not the size of the prey it's the attitude of the hunter and i sat there in this maze amazement to watch that elephant fall like a big cannon and i saw those lions no way at his leather high i never forgot it i saw the king at work i saw what a king is like i see why they called him the king of the jungle secondly god identifies himself and only two animals in the bible he identifies himself with the eagle and the lion and i wondered why these are the only two animals god identifies himself with until i began to study these animals you see i discovered that god knew the nature he put in those animals and he placed in them the same nature that he possesses so he said i will pay you up like eagles and he said my son shall be called the lion of judah that breaks every chain you see the lion possesses what god possesses and you were created to be just like your father god i believe sitting in the chair right now wrapped up in a lamb wool is a lion sitting in your chair right now and the folks around you think you're timid but they don't know how dangerous you are yet oh i'm talking to somebody even your mama don't know who you are i'm here to tell you your daddy don't never seen you before you see your friends who you hang out with they don't know matter of fact most of them are sheep by the time i finish on wednesday you're going to change your friends [Applause] because there are people who you cannot hang out with if you go into your destiny write this down to understand your true nature you got to study the nature of these animals that's why i love the word of god so much in my book the power of vision you'll see a pitch of an eagle on the back and then in this book the spirit of leadership i put a lion because i have discovered to become like your father you must have the attitude of a lion and the vision of an eagle and that's what holy spirit is after this week the leadership that's trapped in you have never been released until this week i'm proud of you the gift i see is still unknown by africa and china and asia it still are known by europe don't be impressed by the americans being proud of your gift the world is too small to have one nation know you i want you to think like a lion the world is your jungle i wanted to wrap up this night on these thoughts because the rest of this week is going to be a rough ride to the jungle what is the goal of the kingdom of god the first statement made by jesus christ concerning his message is found in matthew 4 17. it's an attitude statement here's what he says his first public statement in his ministry is found in matthew 4 17. he had just been baptized spent 40 days in the desert he's full of the holy spirit he began his work and here's his first statement it says from that time forward jesus began to preach what he preached repent why for the kingdom of heaven has arrived what's the first word he used what's the first word he used i'm asking a question what's the first word he used i can't hear what's the first word he used what's the first word jesus used what's the first word jesus used say it loud shake the roof for me wake up your neighbor behind you [Applause] now the word repent has been taught by christian religion as the act of coming forward in a spiritual meeting to an altar and bring up your past and feel bad about it that is not repentance that is called remorse those of you who are biblical scholars hopefully you will know by now that the word repent used by jesus here is a hebrew word which is translated into the greek language which means to change your mind to change your mentality wow his first announcement attacks your mind his first invitation is a mental transformation he said change the way you've been taught to think why because the kingdom of heaven has arrived the kingdom demands a new way of thinking change your mental conditioning i have come to the conclusion that jesus insulted all of humanity by his first statement he was saying that everything you've been taught to think is wrong that's an insult to humanity your society is wrong your culture is wrong your governments are wrong your education is wrong everything you've been taught is wrong now that's an insult and he said if you're going to live in this kingdom you got to get rid of that mentality you know what's holding you back your mentality being born again doesn't change your mentality being born again does not change your mentality being born again does not change your mentality being born again is not changing your mentality being born again does not change your mentality the most schizophrenic people in the world are christians they claim everything and they do nothing paul wrote this note to christians romans 12 verse 2 he was writing to a church he said be no longer conformed to the thinking of this world but be transformed how by the renewing of your mind everybody say renew write it down quick quick quick everybody say renew say it loud i can't hear you everybody young man say it say it loud he said be transformed how he didn't say get a new mind okay write the word renew you get it down now that word renew is not a word in grammar it's called a grammatical construct a grammatical construct is when you take a word and you add a prefix to it what's the prefix write the prefix down three by itself three re get it now the prefix re means to go back to the original state i repeat three means what to go back to the original state that's why the first word jesus used has a re in front of it oh we're going to have some heavy stuff this week paul says you will not be transformed until you stop going forward turn around and go back to your original self go back and get your original mind oh help me lord young people listen to me what they are teaching you in school will not make you successful guaranteed they are teaching you to get a job i have come to teach you to own a business society conditions you to behave to conform to be normal but i have come sent by the beast to teach you not to conform any longer to this world's way of thinking but to be transformed by getting your original mindset back you were not born to be normal you were not born to be normal you were not born to be average you were not born to be normal some people are so busy trying to fit in they never stand out i'm talking to myself in this place so you want to dress like everybody wear your hair like everybody wear the same pants below your hip buy the same shoes buy the same snake leather shoes by the same time like everybody else why don't you break away and develop your own style [Music] i'ma talk to myself this week everybody say repent let me just give you something to remember everybody say pant if you take the prefix away from the word then the word is pent tent is a word write the word print down pet means top highest place oh jesus that's why the building you call a hotel the highest room is always called the penthouse where jesus christ is telling you that somewhere along the line you move down to the first floor i'm talking to myself now his first announcement come back up here where you belong scream somebody [Applause] oh i can't teach this tell your neighbor come back up here where you belong say your name but get your miner together and come back to the top place clap your hands all your lions paul says be ye transformed how by not getting a new mind but going back and getting the original mind [Music] get the first mind i gave man let them have dom me clap your hands or the alliance [Applause] oh hallelujah oh i like it i like it i like it i like it yes i like it [Music] you were not born to fit in you were born to stand out [Music] [Applause] you were not born to live on a farm you were born to live in the jungle [Music] tell your neighbor i'm a jungle dweller say never i decide how much i get paid oh hallelujah tell your neighbor i decided hi i go tell your neighbor i don't follow paths i make paths are y'all listening to me tell your neighbor tell your neighbor no more bear oh i see the real you coming out tonight sit down he said change your mind the kingdom demands a new mentality from lion to sheep and then from sheep to lion you fell from lion to sheep sheep is not your permanent state sheep is not your original identity let me prove it isaiah 53 46 says we are all like sheep gone astray in other words if you are astray your sheep [Music] each one his own way but it says but the lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all that means lost is sheep found is lion remember this write it down it says we are like sheep it never says we are sheep christianity glorify sheepness oh i'm so excited what i'm gonna say next whoa don't you miss it back there you see we have been falling for 6 000 years 7 000 years starting our eighth thousandth year we fell so long from being lion we think we're sheep so we act like sheep talk like sheep walk like sheep dress like sheep think like sheep eat like sheep live with sheep we just sheep and we are so sheepish that we are afraid of lions oh get me for a go now remember the little lion he was afraid of lions so here is god the lion of judah looking down on his kids thinking like sheep and he knew that if i go down to help them in my lion clothes see he knew he tried it before he told moses i personally would like to meet with the whole camp tell them to wash their clothes meet me at the mountain i don't want to meet you moses i want to meet the entire camp so they washed their clothes they all came to the mountain everybody's waiting and here comes the lion of judah stepping down from his throne to talk to his kids and the bible says the earth began to quake the mountains fell apart lightning and thunder and smoke and the people ran away they couldn't handle him as a lion so he decided i'm going to disguise myself [Applause] i ain't no sheep don't forget me i ain't no sheep don't get me wrong but i don't want the kids to run so i'm gonna make myself of no reputation my reputation is lying but i'm gonna hide that in a lamb come on somebody so when i come among them they'll think they will just think that i'm one of them oh i'm talking to myself and so he became like one of us he is not one of us he became like one of us who us lost sheep because he knew we were not sheep i said he knew you were not a sheep but he knew that you've been conditioned and harassed and trained to think below yourself and so he put on sheep clothes and the bible says and the word was made flesh and dwelt one time he wanted to make sure that peter james and john did not think he was a sheep so he said you three come i want to show you all the real me he took him on a mountain and he got rid of his sheep clothes and the bible says his real self shown brighter than the sun and they became afraid and they became listen listen listen impressed don't miss this they became what impressed that's your problem you see you are impressed by me and that's your problem they became so impressed they wanted to build three houses in honor of what they saw and all they saw was who they were oh you don't get it yet see the problem is most of you are going to be shocked this week when i reveal to you who you really are you're gonna run from yourself just like the little lion did but i'm gonna run after you and keep growling until you turn around and join me in the you have fallen so far you are impressed with your true self do you know what he told them he said don't build anything why because this is nothing to build anything to this is normal we are just like she how do i know that he hid himself in sheep clothing but here's the original idea god created man for rulership not religion secondly man was given dominion as a mandate thirdly whatever god calls for he provides for that means if god calls for dominion he's already put it in you he will never demand what he didn't supply dominion is hidden in you and is trapped under timidity and conformity fourthly man was created to dominate everything except the image of god that means you were never created to dominate other people nor to be dominated by other people don't you forget that son you were created to dominate not to be dominated but man fell from dominion not from heaven and therefore i am convinced that trapped in every fallen man is a spirit of dominion a leadership spirit and i submit to you then that every man is searching for his dominion his domain we're gonna learn that this week that each one of you was born to dominate an area of gifting you found yours man i see it that's your domain you found your your gift your true self now you gotta expand your borders there's an area you were born to dominate young man young woman that no one else can dominate like you he never gave you dominion over people he gave you dominion over a gift and your gift makes room for you in the world and turns you into a leader and therefore your pursuit in life is to have dominion your kingdom pursuit is to have dominion i want to leave you with this verse a couple of verses here because i got to set this up for tomorrow morning 12 o'clock read this verse with me read galatians 3 26 read you are all sons of god through faith in jesus christ for all of you who were baptized into christ have been clothed yourselves with christ are we all agreeing with that okay read the next verse verse chapter four verse one what i am saying is that as long as the heir is a child he is no different from a slave although he owns the whole estate he is subject to guardians entrusted until the time set by the father now most of you in this room have no idea what this verse means but i was born in the bahamas in 1954 when i was born we were under the kingdom of great britain we were not a nation i was a subject of a king follow me carefully in kingdoms don't miss this in kingdoms when don't miss this gotta write a song about this don't don't miss this this verse cannot be understood in america it can only be understood in the kingdom listen whenever a king has a son a baby as soon as the baby is born they take the baby to the mother the queen she looks at the baby for a few minutes listen listen listen please then they take the baby away from her all kingdoms do this and the baby is then given to a group of people called guardians or tutors listen in other words the baby is taken away from the mother because they don't want the mother to bring the child up princess these sons were taken from her why does the king take the child from the right to queen and give it to this group of people call the tudors or the guardians it's because the job of this group is to make sure that this baby does not grow up thinking like normal children their job is to teach this child who he is how he must dress how he must walk how he must live how he must think who he is what he is his history teach him his heritage his genealogy they teach him how to hold a fork and a knife how to sit at a table how to sit in the chair how do you cross your legs properly they teach them what never to do now put your hands over your chair like this you will never see prince william sitting in a chair with his hand in the back of a chair it's uncouth they call it in england the tudor's job is to make sure that that child is brainwashed to think royalty it's very important now listen to me the child please listen this verse about that the child is born royalty but the child doesn't know god says even though you are a son i'm gonna treat you as if you are a slave because mentally you don't think like royalty yet so i'll give you to guardians even though you are a heir you don't think like an heir even though you are a lion you've been keeping company with sheep and now i gotta spend all these years retraining your mind cleaning out your mentality so i give you the guardians he is subject to trustees until what until the time set by the father when the king is satisfied that you've been completely brainwashed to believe that you're supposed to take his job oh y'all don't get it then he tells the tutor your job is finished listen carefully listen listen so a king always has a child twice listen carefully because you were born in america when the king has the child the first time he calls him his child but then he gives him away and when the tutors are finished he has a child again the same child so in every royal family you got to be born twice that is why the bible uses the term adoption it doesn't mean you were not his son in the beginning he wants to adopt you the second time after you've been completely transformed mentally to think like royalty then he calls you his son again and it's a ceremony they go through when jesus was born god says this is my son he told mary this is my son 30 years later he learned obedience by the things he suffered and he stood in the river he had passed the test god knew him the boy knew who he was satan said if you be the son he says i am and after that he came to the river and god said this hey voice of today today i have begotten you he's 30 years old here's my point you've been living with sheep so long you are not yet his adopted son you're just son by birth you're not sun by training this conference some of you didn't understand the theme and now you understand the theme yes you are in the kingdom and you've accepted his birth but this conference he's telling you now i'm going to tutor you i'm going to transform your mentality to think like who you are god is telling us i love this verse read this verse galatians 4 3 read so also when we were children we were in slavery under the basic principles of the world but when the time had fully come god sent his son born of a woman born under the law to redeem those under the law why that we might receive my god the last verse galatians 4 6 read because you are sons god sent the spirit of his son into your hearts stop stop reading stop reading stop reading he sent the spirit capital s holy spirit into what your hearts write the word heart down please quick the word heart here is the hebrew word mind stop looking at your chest i was shocked too when i did the research the word is mind the holy spirit was given to restore the spirit of kingship in you not to make you feel good not to make you fall on the ground and get slain in the spirit he came to transform the way you've been trained to think he sent his holy spirit where into your minds the spirit who calls out uh what's the word album is father you see prince william thinks he's just another boy but he had to be trained to think he's another king so they couldn't trust the mother to do it tutor had a certain responsibility one would teach him how to speak one would teach him how to walk when we teach him how to have diction one teach him how to dress one teach him how to sit one teach him how to eat at a table one teach him how to courtesy one teach him how to receive gifts oh you don't understand he has to be taught how to receive gifts the holy spirit has been given to you to train your mind not your emotions your
