Biblical Teaching: Ascending To Higher Realms!

This is the transcription of a biblical teaching by Annamarie Strawhand on her LIVE broadcast of Life in the Faith Lane with special guest, Pastor Jeno Shaw, on July 15, 2024.

Watch the video below and read the transcript that follows.

 

Annamarie: Pastor Jeno, remember when we were in Washington, D.C., and we were praying, and we were up in the hotel room and I was sick that morning?

Pastor Jeno: Oh, yes. Yes.

Annamarie: The enemy was trying to take my voice. I, I woke up that morning – me and Pastor Jeno and Pastor Jeno’s wife, Karrie, and his daughter, Aria … I said, “Pastor Jeno, y’all need to come to my room right now.” I said, “Bring me some tea, something.” I said, “I cannot talk. The enemy is trying to take my voice.” And I was, I was there to bring a word …

Pastor Jeno: Yeah.

Annamarie: To Washington, D.C., and the enemy was … I couldn’t … I woke up, and I had no voice. And so they came up with the tea and put the tea, and Pastor Jeno says, “I’m laying hands on you right now.” And he laid hands, and I could feel the heat. Eh, I mean, my whole body started shaking, and I could feel the heat and my voice came back. 

And that day we went and we prophesied and we prayed, and the very next day my voice was almost fully back, and I spoke on Capitol Hill. And I got to speak the prophetic word there in Washington, D.C., of commanding the gates of righteousness (Psalm 24) to open up over our nation. 

And you know what Psalm 24 is all about? And Pastor Jeno, I want to encourage you. You have healing hands. You have the power of the Holy Spirit.

Pastor Jeno: Yeah.

Annamarie: When you laid hands on me that day to heal and command my voice to come back and I, I felt that healing power working through you, so keep working on that because I know the Lord is giving you that. He’s going to be giving that to all of us. We’re coming into that time. 

Pastor Jeno: Amen.

Annamarie: Let me tell you about Washington, D.C.; Pastor Jeno, remember?

Pastor Jeno: Well, I, I remember when we got there …

Annamarie: It was so supernatural.

Pastor Jeno: … before I forget. I remember when we got there, I took … It might sound weird, but I took it as, as, uh, a good sign. The demons started screaming. 

Annamarie: Ummmmmm!!!!

Pastor Jeno: I remember that, and I, I take that as a good sign.

Annamarie: As soon as we pulled into the parking garage, there was a demonic manifestation.

Pastor Jeno: Yeah, yeah, yeah, immediately.

Annamarie: And, yeah, we were, were staying in, um, Arlington, and we had gotten into the parking garage, and as soon as I hit that button for it to come in, this screeching, demonic … remember? 

Pastor Jeno: I remember. 

Annamarie: Ear piercing, demonic screeching …

Pastor Jeno: Yeah.

Annamarie: And what does that tell you, right, is we carry Christ Jesus. We’re carrying a prophetic word. We’re carrying the glory.

Pastor Jeno: Yes, yes! And I, I truly believe …

Annamarie: And the demons are screaming and running away. 

Pastor Jeno: Oh, yeah, yeah. And I truly be, I truly believe that you have an anointing; I have an anointing, but when we operate together, it’s more than double. 

Annamarie: Oh [gasp], when … 

Pastor Jeno: Yeah

Annamarie: When me and you and Karrie, and your daughter, Ariel …

Pastor Jeno: Oh, yeah!

Annamarie: Who’s anointed …

Pastor Jeno: It’s just powerful, yeah.

Annamarie: And so as soon as we got in that parking garage, I said, “We got to blow the shofar.” And I had my shofar, and we, and, I mean, I’m telling you, the rest of those demons scattered.

But let me tell you something, y’all. When, when, the word that the Lord gave me, uh, well, first he gave me, gave us the word, he gave us several words. You got to go back and watch that whole Washington, D.C. …

Pastor Jeno: Oh, wasn’t the hotel split in half?

Annamarie: The what?

Pastor Jeno: Wasn’t, it was, it was a weird hotel. Wasn’t it split in half like …

Annamarie: Yeah, the hotel was split in half. 

Pastor Jeno: Part of it, you couldn’t go to, so I don’t know … 

Annamarie: Yeah.

Pastor Jeno: if secret service were there or what.

Annamarie: The CIA was having a meeting in the …

Pastor Jeno: There it is!

Annamarie: … basement …

Pastor Jeno: There it is.

Annamarie: … of the hotel …

Pastor Jeno: Hmmm.

Annamarie: … when we got in there. 

Pastor Jeno: Yeah.

Annamarie: And God brought me and you all the way up to the top floor giving us authority over that. It was so prophetic. 

Pastor Jeno: Um hmm.

Annamarie: He, he brought us to the top floor. We, we had all authority, and we were commanding, and in, over that place, and then we weren’t going to do a land assignment in Arlington, but that very morning, we got up when the Lord restored my voice and we did, and we commanded the glory train of God – we were right next to a railroad track – 

Pastor Jeno: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Annamarie: … to come driving into that place. But when we got the next day, uh, over the, um, the water …

Pastor Jeno: Yeah.

Annamarie: We prayed over the water, and, uh, the Lord had me command that the, that the head of the idols would come off. Right? He, he went to that scripture where the, the demonic god, Dagon, lot its head, lost its hand when the Ark of the Covenant came in with the blood of the Lamb, and that the demonic, uh, entities would lose their head, uh, it was, then when we got to the hill, at Capitol Hill, He gave me Psalm 24.

And you know what? I didn’t realize …

Jennifer, can you put, uh, the beginning of Psalm 24 up where it says …

Pastor Jeno: Look, Lady Tex is feeling it!

Annamarie: I need the beginning of Psalm 24 because I’ve got something supernatural to speak. I didn’t, I’m all about opening up the gates of righteousness, but the beginning of Psalm 24 is about us ascending to the supernatural government hill of the Lord. 

Okay, so every, so every land assignment that Pastor Jeno has gone to to pray over the land since Las Vegas, the Lord said to him, “Let the winds blow. Let the winds of change come.” Okay? All right. 

Every land assignment I’ve gone on, the Lord as said Psalm 24, command the gates of righteousness to open – “lift up your heads, O ye gates, and be ye lifted up ye everlasting doors, and the king of glory will come in.” All right?

Is there a whoosh when those gates open? Absolutely. But when you read the beginning of Psalm 24, it just hit me, it says …

Pastor Jeno: Yeah, it hits you that way. It hits me in a different way. You don’t know it, but me and my wife, when we would pray in tongues for hours, we have this CD, and there’s this prophetic singer that would sing, and she would sing Psalm 24, “The earth is the Lord’s.”

Annamarie: And the fullness thereof.

Pastor Jeno: It, it stuck in my head, and it’s there. It’s, it’s never going to leave. 

Annamarie: But the Lord gave me a new revelation on Psalm 24.

Pastor Jeno: Oh, great.

Annamarie: Now I know why He’s had me speaking it. Psalm 24:1-5 – this is 2024, right, 2024. “The earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. For He hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.”

Get ready for floods of truth, floods of truth. Get ready.

“Who shall ascend to the hill of the Lord or who shall stand in His holy place? He that hath clean hands and a pure heart, who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. He shall receive the blessing from the Lord and the righteousness of the God of his salvation.” 

All right, I’m going to read this again. “Who shall ascend to the hill of the Lord? Who shall stand in his holy place?”

We’re talking about, God is going to bring us up to higher levels of glory where these places, these realms are so holy, so pure, so supernatural, okay, where God – not just His righteousness and His government – but areas of prophetic, areas of healing. I’m telling you, the Lord is saying to us Psalm 24 is a governmental scripture.

Here me out here, y’all. We are in 2024, okay? Uh, the Lord told me to proclaim this scripture over every single land assignment, and He told me to proclaim it at Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. 

He said to me yesterday, “Annamarie, don’t you understand what the beginning of that scripture is?” I said, “What, Lord?” He said, “Who shall ascend to the hill of the Lord, and who shall stand to his holy place?” 

It is a governmental scripture. The hill of the Lord is the mountain of the Lord, the government of the Lord in the earth, meaning we are going to be raised up to levels who we will be doing things that are so holy, so supernatural, and it’s through us seeking righteousness. So the more we seek righteousness, the more we seek righteousness, the more we say, “Lord, create in us clean hands and a pure heart,” we’re going to levels of glory in the earth where we are going to be raised up, ascended up … I’m talking about spiritually where we’re going to be doing things in the spirit realm that Jesus said we would do.

This is where we are going to be ascending into the government of God in the earth and bringing it to the earth, but we must … 

Pastor Jeno: Annamarie.

Annamarie:  … seek His righteousness. 

Pastor Jeno: Annamarie.

Annamarie: It is an ascension first. 

Pastor Jeno: Do you realize what you’re doing right now?

Annamarie: I’m prophesying.

Pastor Jeno: Do you realize what you’re doing right now?

Annamarie: We’re ascending to the hill of the Lord.

Pastor Jeno: You’re cheer, you’re cheerleading. I, my, my spirit, and I know everyone’s spirit on this, uh, chat is on fire right now. 

Annamarie: Come on!

Pastor Jeno: You’re cheerleading, and … 

Annamarie: Come on! 

Pastor Jeno: Yes, yes. Hallelujah!

Annamarie: When I prophesied that with the shofar that day …

Pastor Jeno: Yes. 

Annamarie: … I felt the power of the Holy Ghost, and He was saying, “Open the gates of righteousness.” He has, He’s said that to me so many times. You know why? Psalm 24 is a governmental verse for the kingdom of Almighty God. 

Pastor Jeno: Come on.

Annamarie: We have got to seek His righteousness. The more we seek His righteousness, the higher up He elevates us. I’m talking about in the earth, and, and, you know, , we are, we are transcending in the spirit realm to higher places to do the works of Jesus Christ. 

Is it connected to time travel? Is it connecting to transcending time? Is it connecting to seeing things in the spirit of the future? Is it connected …. Absolutely! All the gifts that Jesus Christ have [sic], we will have. How do we get them? Seeking His righteousness. 

Pastor Jeno: Yes, and I’m, I’m going to add to that, and I’m going to release this gold nugget right now.  

Annamarie: Coming up to the higher place …

Pastor Jeno: And that is, that is this …

Annamarie: Spiritually! Come on.

Pastor Jeno: The word of God, the word of God, okay? The word of God, it transcends natural laws.

Annamarie: That’s right. 

Pastor Jeno: It transcends natural laws. 

Annamarie: Hallelujah.

Pastor Jeno: Okay, we’ve been talking about the supernatural, what Jesus have [sic] done. We’re going to do that and even more. Hallelujah. Remember that.

Annamarie: Yes, and how do we get righteousness? We get righteousness through the word of God. 

Pastor Jeno: Amen.

Annamarie: We get righteousness through His word. Do we all want to operate in these gifts of the Spirit and come up to the higher place, right, in, spiritually? “Who shall ascend to the hill of the Lord? Who shall stand in His holy place.” I’m talking about in the earth, bringing the kingdom of God to the earth in us and through us. We’ve got to seek His righteousness. How do we seek His righteousness? Through His word. Right? 

The, the Bible says we go from glory to glory to glory, and the breaker. He’s breaking us through, King Jesus. It’s, it’s, it’s a government that is coming to earth through us, the saints, but it’s us seeking this righteousness. I’m telling you, my friends, we are going to be standing on the hill of the Lord, and I’m talking about spiritually.

Pastor Jeno: Annamarie …

Annamarie: The mountain of transfiguration …

Pastor Jeno: I don’t know if you realize it …

Annamarie: … type, type things.

Pastor Jeno: You still got it. You still got it, that cheerleader in you. You still got it. 

Annamarie: Whoooooo, let’s go, people!

Pastor Jeno: Look, if I had wings, I would fly right now. I would just fly right now. That’s, my spirit is just, is, yeah, my goodness. Come on. 

Annamarie: But when He gave me that word about Psalm 24, and now I realize why He’s had me speak it so many times. He wants the desire in His people to seek this righteousness because He wants to raise us up higher, to a higher level in the spirit, and I’m talking about, I’m not talking about, uh, you know, where you’re going to be, you know, leaving your body and all that stuff. I’m talking physical boots-on-the ground on the earth walking in signs, wonders, miracles, five-fold ministries. I mean, doing the works of Jesus Christ.

Pastor Jeno: Now there …

Annamarie: Will, will He actually pick up your body and move it? Yeah.

Pastor Jeno: Now, there is a, uh, prerequisite. Just so you guys know, there is a prerequisite, and in verse six it just says, “This is the generation of those who diligently seek Him … 

Annamarie: Amen.

Pastor Jeno: … and require Him as their greatest need.” 

Annamarie: Yes.

Pastor Jeno: Their greatest need.

Annamarie: So we’ve got to constantly seek the Lord.

Pastor Jeno: Yes, yeah.

Annamarie: And, and, and we’ve got to hunger for Him. 

Pastor Jeno: Yes, that’s it.

Annamarie: And this is being established. This is being established. We really have got to meditate on Psalm 24, my friends.

Pastor Jeno: There you go. There you go.

Annamarie: Speak it out. Uh, I blow my shofar when I speak that verse. Now I know why He had me, so even going all the way back to my first land assignment, Pastor Jeno …

Pastor Jeno: Um hmm.

Annamarie: When I was, when I was, um, on July 9, July 9, 2016, the Lord sent me up to Jamestown and Yorktown, and He spoke to me audibly. I remember telling my husband, “Honey, don’t think I’m crazy, but God is talking to me.” And then, you know Big Mike, my husband, Big Mike, right? 

Pastor Jeno: Yeah!

Annamarie: I’m like, I go, we go into the church of Jamestown, right? I don’t know why the Lord said just take a little staycation, just go up to Jamestown. We did …

Pastor Jeno: This sounds like the intro to a movie.

Annamarie: I wasn’t thinking anything. Yeah, July 9, it’s so hot, okay?

Pastor Jeno: Yeah.

Annamarie: And we walk in this little church, old church in Jamestown. I walk in the doors, and the Spirit of the God, of God comes upon me … 

Pastor Jeno: Come on.

Annamarie: … and starts, He’s, I hear the voice of the Lord audibly, and He says, “Annamarie, go up to the altar and kneel down. I have an assignment for you.”

Pastor Jeno: Amen.

Annamarie: And I look at Mike, there’s, there’s tourists all in there [Inaudible]. I go …

Pastor Jeno: I just love that. 

Annamarie: Yeah.

Pastor Jeno: “Honey, don’t, don’t think I’m crazy.” I love that!

Annamarie: I know! Mike remembers that. 

Pastor Jeno: Yeah.

Annamarie: I said, um, “Honey,” I go, “God is talking to me, and I don’t think I’m crazy,” I said, “but I got to go up there.” Because we were going to turn around and walk out of the church [Sound effects] and walk out.

Pastor Jeno: Yeah.

Annamarie: And Mike was ready to go, and I’m like, “Hold on,” I go, “God’s talking to me. Don’t think I’m crazy. I got to go up here.”

Pastor Jeno: Yeah.

Annamarie: And he was like, “Whaaaaaa?” Now he, now he knows God talks to me all the time, right?

Pastor Jeno: Yeah.

Annamarie: But before, he was like, you know? And so I went up to that altar, and I remember these beautiful tapestries with the Ten Commandments on both sides. This very old church in Jamestown, the first Jamestown settlement, and I knelt down at the altar, and I said, “Lord, I don’t know what this assignment is, but I say yes.” And He said, “You say yes?” 

Pastor Jeno: Wow.

Annamarie: And I said, “Yes, I’m saying yes.” 

Pastor Jeno: Wow.

Annamarie: And it, I, I walked out of that church. The power of the Holy Ghost was on me so strong.

Pastor Jeno: And you’ve never been the same. 

Annamarie: And I had lost all the charge on my phone because I had been taking a bunch of videos.

Pastor Jeno: Wow.

Annamarie: I walked down the hill from that, this is on July 9, 2016. I will never forget it.

Pastor Jeno: Wow.

Annamarie: I walked down the hill. We were going to go back into the air conditioned museum, and there was this old, giant chimney, antique chimney, brick chimney there. Looks like it had been the ruins of something, okay, but it was, this chimney was still standing. And it’s starting to drizzle rain about five o’clock in the afternoon, and there’s all these tourists in a big circle looking up at this chimney, the very, very top. And it starts to drizzle, and the Lord says to me, “Look up.” And I stop and I look up. There is an American Bald Eagle’s nest at the top of this chimney with a mother eagle with two baby birds, and she’s spreading out her wings over these two babies. And I’m trying to get my phone to take a picture. No charge on the phone. 

Pastor Jeno: Oh!

Annamarie: And I, I hear the Lord say to me, “Annamarie, this assignment is about America. Now, just do what I tell you to do.” And when I got home … Oh, then I went into the gift shop, and He told me to buy this. [Holds item up] And, uh, this is a sentry, a pressed glass sentry, and the Lord started teaching me about the sentry angels, and, um, He said He is raising up, right, His, His, His guards, His intercessors and to ask for the sentry angels. 

As soon as I got home … President Trump  was running for president, and the Lord gave me my very first land assignment at, uh, the First Landing Cross at Cape Henry, Virginia, here in Virginia Beach, Virginia. And do you know what the first scripture was that He told me to do? 

Pastor Jeno: What?

Annmarie: Psalm 24.

Pastor Jeno: Amen.

Annamarie: Immediately.

Pastor Jeno: And when I was …

Annamarie: And that’s the main gateway to our nation. And then He took the land assignments, He’s got y’all, through this ministry, you started doing them. Then you went and did, I did the one on the East Coast Cross. You went …

Pastor Jeno: Yeah.

Annamarie: …  and did the one on the West Coast Cross at San Diego.

Pastor Jeno: Yeah.

Annamarie: And then all of y’all now doing this everywhere. The sons and daughters of God have awakened. 

Scripture Reference

Psalm 24 (KJV)
“The earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. 2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods. 3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place? 4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. 5 He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.”

Biblical Teaching: Discerning The Voice of Father God, Jesus and The Holy Spirit

Biblical Teaching: Discerning The Voice of Father God, Jesus and The Holy Spirit

This is a transcription of a short biblical teaching by Annamarie Strawhand in answer to a viewer’s question on her live broadcast of Life In The Faith Lane on June, 26, 2024.

Watch the video and read the transcription that follows to learn how to discern the difference between the voices of Father God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit.

  

Question: How do I know who’s talking to me – if it’s Father, Jesus, or Holy Spirit.

Annamarie: Well, everything mainly comes from the spirit of the living God – the Holy Spirit. Jesus is also the person of the Holy Spirit, so it’s connected as one, right – Father, Son, Holy Spirit. However, there has been certain differences when it comes directly from the heart of Father God. When it’s the audible voice of God, when it’s the spirit of God speaking through the Holy Spirit, and when it’s Jesus, I have had some audible differences in my spirit. 

Now, when it’s the Holy Spirit, it’s almost like a download in your spirit. It’s not like …  you’re, you’re hearing, but you’re hearing by your spirit, by your being. Okay? Holy Spirit also flashes pictures into you, into your spirit, okay? Holy Spirit is the revelator. It’s revealed in you. It’ll just like, like, like, come to you, right, and it’ll be like a download. 

The heart of the Father is where you literally feel it in your heart, and it just makes you want to cry. You feel the Father’s heart. When it’s the Father speaking to you, you, you discern it’s very fatherly. You feel the Father’s heart. You feel it actually in your heart. You’ll discern that father love. Okay? 

When it’s Jesus, He always says, “The Father.” He does. He speaks just like He does speak in the Gospels when it’s Him. You will know the rhythm … the more you read the Gospels of Jesus Christ, the more you will know the rhythm of Jesus’ voice and when He’s speaking to you. Jesus usually speaks to me when I’m taking Communion because I invite Him to the table, and I ask Him to speak. And when He speaks, He’ll say things like, “The Father, the Father.” And He calls you by name a lot. Jesus will call you by name. 

So Jesus calls you by name. He’ll say, “Tiffany,” and He’ll say, “Remember the Father.” He’ll, He’ll point things towards the Father, and He points you a lot to His Word and to His Gospel, and when it’s Jesus, you’ll really know it’s Him because it’ll be in the rhythm of His voice of the Gospels. 

The Father’s rhythm of the Father’s word is more in the rhythm of the Old Testament, the Father’s voice, especially in the Psalm. And the Holy Spirit, He talks to you like a friend would talk to you. He talks to you like a friend would talk to you. He drops things in your spirit. He drops pictures. He really is like, “Hey, I’m going to help you. I’m going to help you. I’m going to drop this in your spirit.” I’m like, “Hey.” He’s going to be like, “Hey, why’d you do this? Why’d you do this? Hey, do this. Hey, do this.” Right? It, it’ll be like these downloads, revelations. He’s like a friend. 

So Holy Spirit’s more like a friend dropping things in your spirit, right? Father is Father and His love and that poetry, right? And Jesus is more, “I’m speaking to you. I’m speaking to you the Word. I’m pointing to the Father.” Jesus … a lot of times Jesus asks questions. When I know it’s Jesus, He asks a question. You know it’s Jesus. 

So, for example, when I know it’s Jesus, He points to the Father; He asks questions, and He points to the Gospels a lot of times. He will also many, many times point to remembering certain things about Him, and He’ll point us to asking questions.

So, for example, I hear from the Holy Spirit all day long. It’s just kind of a revelation – things dropping in my spirit, this helpful friend showing me pictures, revealing things to me, right? And then I’m relaxed, and I go to bed, and I lay down, and if I ask a question … I remember doing this – Jesus loves to answer questions – and I said, “Lord, I just don’t know what to do with this horse, Pongo.” 

At the time, I was really frustrated about our horse, Pongo. And we had been going through a lot of trainers. And I said, “Lord, I just, I just don’t know what to do about this horse, Pongo. I know You gave him to us. I don’t know what to do about his trainers. I don’t know what to do about his training. I just don’t know what to do.”

And I heard Jesus, eh, and it was different because the way He said it to me, and it was right into my whole being, into my spirit, and He said, “Annamarie.” He called me by name. That’s why I know it’s Jesus. And He said, “Annamarie, ask Father what He wants to do with this little horse. Have you asked Father?” He said, “Father,” and I knew it was Jesus because He was saying Father. He was pointing to the Father. 

So it’s these heart changes, these … Father God will have a character of Father. King Jesus will have the character of teacher and pointing to the Father and calling you by name. Holy Spirit will have the character of helper, revelator, director. So knowing their character is knowing how they speak in the Word of God and their rhythm. Have I heard the audible voice of the Lord, of God Himself directing me like a father would direct me? I have. 

So I just taught on the Book of Hebrews Monday. You should go back and listen to it, about that fatherly correction that you will get, and that fatherly love and knowing the character of the Father and knowing the cha, character of King Jesus, the teacher, that points to the Father and calls you by name, and the character of the Holy Spirit as help, as helper, friend, director, revelator, downloader. Does that help you, darling?

And call them by name. Say, “Father, I’m asking You to show me a sign of Your heart, a sign of Your faithfulness.” Speak to them individually. Amen? Does that help you, darling?

And, you know, I did that day. I did what Jesus told me to do. I said, “Okay, Lord Jesus Christ, I’m going to do what you tell me. I’m going to go and ask the Father.” And so I said, “Father God, Jesus says I should ask You.” Just be as innocent, right? “What do you want to do with this little horse? Who do you have to train him?”

And you know what He said after I prayed that prayer? He sent me a dog walker. He sent me this woman who has a business walking dogs. It’s called Stable Hands Pet Services. And He sent … all of a sudden, her ad popped up in my email, and the Lord said … the Holy Spirit revealed, said, “That one.” 

So I reached out to her, and I went on her site, and immediately went on her site, and it says, “We are now working with horses again.” I was like, “What?” She comes out and she works with him, and she lunge lines him. She grooms him, and she even has another girl that’s on her staff, named Whisper, that works with her, and our horse, Pongo, is doing so good with these two ladies. 

I mean, he adores Whisper. I mean, Whisper comes to work with him, and he’s like, (soulful eyes) “Whisper’s here.” He gets all googly eyed over her. And she, eh, she’s like a horse whisperer. I mean, she’s a, uh, and she works for the dog walking company, but she happens to have a background in horses. I mean, only God could have brought that together. Only the Father would’ve known that because He is El Roi. He is the God who sees and sees it all, and Jesus wants us to go to the Father and ask these childlike questions, and He’s going to point to the Father. The Holy Spirit’s going to drop things [Sound effects] whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop. Reveal, reveal, reveal. He’s the revelator.  

Prayer for the Manna and The Rewards Of Faithfulness

Prayer for the Manna and The Rewards Of Faithfulness

If you’re worried about finances or your children, if they’re prodigal or being irresponsible or how they’re going to pay their bills or how you’re going to pay your bills, etc., just know that sometimes we go through seasons of wilderness and trial because God is teaching us that He is our treasure. He is the one who sustains us and our children. He did it for the children of Israel with the manna. Our children and us will learn a lot when we go through hardships and see how God sustains us through them with His manna, His supply. We must learn how to overcome and stay calm in the process and believe that He is providing for you, your children, and your household.

Watch the video teaching below, and then proclaim the scripture, prayer, and declaration that follows.

 

Scripture Reference

“To him who overcomes, I will give some of the hidden manna to eat. And I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written, which no one knows except him who receives it.” Revelation 2:17

Pray Out Loud

Heavenly Father, Father God, I have been concerned about my finances, about how I’m going to pay my bills, keep food on the table, keep the lights on, and make sure that my children are taken care of – even my older ones. Father God, I trust You. I trust that You are providing and sustaining the manna – supernatural provision to me and my children and even more. You are growing us in the process. You are our treasure. You are our source of everything. You are bringing us out of this wilderness time, this wilderness season, and bringing us into our promises – the land of milk and honey of abundance! You are bringing me and my children to the good land of fruitfulness and abundance. 

Father, help us not to forget how You were the one who sustained us through this time. I am believing, Father God, for the promises, the generational promises for me, my children, and my household. Everyone who was in covenant with you, Father God, got land and provision, and I am in covenant with You through King Jesus, so I receive my land. I receive my harvest. I receive the abundance from every good seed that I have sown. I have peace, and I am calm because I know that You are my provider, O Lord, O God, and that all of Your promises are yes and amen. I receive the good promises of God – for me, my children, and my household – in the name of my Lord Jesus Christ! Amen! Hallelujah!!

Declare Out Loud

I am blessed! Praise the Lord!

My children are blessed! Praise the Lord!

My household is blessed! Praise the Lord!

My finances and my provision are blessed! Praise the Lord!

On Annamarie Strawhand’s March 15, 2024, broadcast of Life in the Faith Lane, a viewer commented: “Lord, replace my will and desires with your will and desires for me.” 

Annamarie explained that the only way to do that is by an act of surrender to allow God to flow to you and through you. There is power in surrender! If you really want God’s will to come in and move in your life, you need to get into the posture of surrender and ask Him to fill you with His Holy Spirit and His will for your life.

Watch the video below for more on this teaching, and then follow the instructions to take your posture of surrender face-down on the floor before God, and pray the prayer that follows.

 

Posture of Surrender

Put a beach towel or blanket on the floor and lay on your stomach, if you are physically able, and get on your face before God. If you can’t physically lie on the floor, get into a kneeling position and bow down. Do your best to get your head on the floor and stretch your arms out on the floor in front of you. This is a posture of surrender before the Lord.

Note: You don’t want to “empty yourself” because emptying yourself can be very dangerous. That’s what people do when they do Yoga meditations. You want to go before the Lord and surrender to Him. It’s an act of worship, an act of honor. It’s you presenting yourself — mind, body, soul, and spirit — to Father God.

You’re not replacing something in you. You’re asking God to fill you immediately with His will, His way, and His Holy Spirit and for Him to overtake you and fill you with His desires, plans, and purposes for you.

As you pray, release any resistance that you’re feeling in your body. Totally surrender, and receive the heaviness of His glory. Wait on Him until you feel it come upon you.

Pray Out Loud

  • “Heavenly Father, Almighty God, Father of Glory, I come to You today before Your throne in humble faith surrendering to You, Almighty God. I surrender my life, my mind, my body, my soul, and my spirit to You, Almighty God. In the name of my Lord Jesus Christ and through the blood of Jesus Christ, I surrender my will to Your will, Father God. I come before You in humility. Your word says that we are to humble ourselves under Your mighty right hand and that You will raise us up in due time. 


  • “I decree that my will now agrees with Your will, Father God. Reveal Your will to me every day, Father God. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit, every part of me, and right now, in the name of Jesus Christ, I surrender to You, Father God. I want more of You, Father God. I love You, Father God. I’m seeking Your will. I’m seeking Your face. I ask you now, Father God, for You to reveal Your will to me. Give me understanding. Remove any scales off my eyes and lift any veils. Take any place of stone in my heart, and give me a heart of flesh. Give me a heart to know Your heart, Father God. 


  • “I command my soul to yield to You, God. My soul exalts you, God. I surrender to you, God. I surrender my life to You, Father God. You are my Father, my loving Father. I trust you, God, with my life, with my spouse, with my children, and with my finances. I surrender to You, God. I believe You are doing all things for my good. I believe I’m called to Your purpose. I ask for Your Holy Spirit to come upon me now. I receive that glory, that covering that only You can give me, Father. Fill me, Father God, with Your purpose. Fill me, Father God, with Your glory. Fill me, Father God, with Your spirit. I yield to You, Father God. I yield. I surrender to You, Father God. I receive Your will for my life, Father God. I receive Your heavy glory. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, Father.


  • “My will is Your will, Father God. Thank You, Father God. I proclaim that my will is receiving the will of God. My mind, my will, my heart, my soul, my spirit, my ears, my mouth, my hands, and my feet are coming into alignment with the will and the word of God. Holy Spirit, flow to me and through me, rivers of living water. Thank You, Jesus. I command my emotions to yield to the will of God.” 

Raise up your hands, and feel the weight of his glory as you continue to pray out loud. 

  • “Heavenly Father, Father God, I am Yours, all of me. I belong to You. Have Your way with me, O Lord, O God. Your glory is my covering, and Your favor surrounds me as a shield. You’ve plucked my feet out of the net and have established my goings. Keep me on the path of righteousness so I will not veer from it. I thank You, Father, for being a good, good Father. Thank You for Your grace and mercy. Thank You for Your Holy Spirit that fills me, guides me, and reveals Your heart to me. I am one with You, Father, through Christ Jesus forever. I worship You, God. I worship You, Father.”

Can you feel the heaviness of the glory, the weight of the glory on you?

  • “Father, I thank you that the weight of Your glory is upon me. You are pouring Your will and Your understanding into me because of my act of surrender according to Your word as I have humbled myself under Your mighty right hand. I feel the weight, and You will exalt me in due time. I am never empty. I am filled with You, Father God. Thank You, Father God. Thank You, Holy Spirit. Thank You, Lord Jesus. Amen and amen.”

Wait On God

Believe by faith He’s doing this work in you. Keep surrendering. Lie there and wait on God until you begin to feel the heavy hand of God come upon you. While you wait, you can say, “Lord, fill me with Your Spirit. Fill me with Your plans and purposes. Fill me with Your presence. Place Your hand upon me, Lord.” 

The Bible says that we come under the mighty right hand of God, and you will feel that power, that heaviness come upon you. Sometimes you won’t even be able to get up off the floor for a few minutes because He’s coming in and doing that work in you.

1 Peter 5:6, KJV
“Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time.”

NOTES

The Lord Gave Me Revelation

When he returns, Heaven comes to earth, and He fully takes over the second heaven where the powers and principalities are. We are called to gather with him. We’ll be “caught up with him,” meaning gathering, “like a hen gathers her chicks.” We are lifted up spiritually above the judgment, and Jesus has those who passed away with him. We don’t go back to Heaven because HE IS BRINGING HEAVEN HERE WITH HIM!

Comparison Of This Revelation With What Jesus Said In The Gospels And Psalm 37

Like the days of Noah – Powers and principalities were removed from the earth (giants, fallen angels, and Nephilim). After the flood, they went to the second heaven! Now Jesus overcame the world, the earth, and the sea and showed us how to bring the Kingdom of God to the earth in these days, giving us the legal right to destroy the principalities with repentance and his blood. When he returns for us — His TRIUMPHANT bride — He will fully overtake the AIR!

Anything in covenant with those principalities will be wiped out because the legal rights have all been removed!

He binds up satan and throws him into the abyss with his fallen angels and we rule and reign with Christ here on the earth for 1000 years of Peace.

The Church of Brotherly Love is established.

The Kingdom is established.

Heaven has come to earth and there are no principalities to stop it.

That’s why we have work to do.

That’s why Jesus said He would ‘GATHER’ US UNDER HIS WINGS like a hen does her chicks.

We don’t leave the planet! We win the planet!

The devil knows this. That’s why the territorial fights. That’s why the distorted rapture doctrine! 

It makes Christians stay focused on waiting to leave the planet instead of taking territory!

Doing Land Assignments has taught us this!

Psalms 37:10

“For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.”

The demonic has a “Place,” a territory to operate!

We overtake it, and the demonic operating there must leave. It has no legal right to stay!

Jesus told us this!

OCCUPY

Military Definition: control and possession of hostile territory that enables an invading nation to establish military government against an enemy or martial law against rebels or insurrectionists in its own territory.

WE ARE ESTABLISHING THE GOVERNMENT OF GOD, THE KINGDOM.

THE ONLY WAY TO DO THAT IS TO TAKE OVER TERRITORY FOR CHRIST.

JESUS COUNTS ON US DOING THIS.

That is why when I was in Heaven with that encounter, I heard the two songs “Scotland the Brave” and “Battle Hymn of the Republic.” They are both battle victory songs!

In Scotland, when the town hears that song, they know the battalion is returning with a victory. They all run out of their homes and meet the victorious battalion coming over the hills and celebrating.

Tri·um·phant

/trīˈəmf(ə)nt/

adjective

having won a battle or contest; victorious.

“a comic fairy tale about innocence triumphant”

Similar:

victorious

successful

winning

prize-winning

feeling or expressing jubilation after having won a victory or mastered a difficulty

Revelation 19:7 

“And I heard a sound like the roar of a great multitude, like the rushing of many waters, and like a mighty rumbling of thunder, crying out: “Hallelujah! For the Lord our God the Almighty reigns. 7Let us rejoice and be glad and give Him the glory. For the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His bride has made herself ready. 8She was given clothing of fine linen, bright and pure.” For the fine linen she wears is the righteous acts of the saints.…”

The Bridegroom lifts up the bride in the sedan chair when he picks her up for the wedding feast.

The rapture is the gathering up of the people in triumph to have a celebration on the earth that was just FULLY overtaken, including the air, by the saints on the ground taking territory.

These scriptures all confirm each other

The rapture meaning of “lifting up” is actually the overtaking of the air, “powers and principalities of the air,” meaning Jesus and us overcome that together! We meet in victory and are forever with him here on the earth!

Psalms 37:11

“But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.”

Matthew 5:5-8

“Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. [6] Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. [7] Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. [8] Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.”

This means the powers and principalities will be GONE!

Without those ruling principalities, the wicked have lost their legal rights to operate on the earth.

It’s all about us taking territory on the ground. When we do that, the principality in the air over that region is bound and cast out!

It’s so clear to me!

We overtake the air with Jesus!

This is why Jesus said THE GATES OF HELL WILL NOT PREVAIL AGAINST US.

We take the gates of the demonic in all territories.

When we do that on the ground, we know that Father releases his angel armies to take over that legal territory of the air.

We are called the “meek” because we humble ourselves under God!

We are called the righteous because we hunger for it and our hunger WILL BE SATISFIED.

It all makes sense!

WE ARE THE TRIUMPHANT BRIDE!!

This means we have to make a greater push for the Boots On The Ground Intercessors.

I see it all so clearly.

Jesus gave us the Keys to do this!

Jesus asked the Father not to take us out of the world but to preserve us here and protect us from the evil one.

John 17:14-16 

Prayer for the Disciples

“14 …I have given them Your word and the world has hated them; for they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. 15 I am not asking that You take them out of the world, but that You keep them from the evil one. 16 They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.…”

2 Peter 3:8-13 ESV

“8 But do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance. 10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a roar, and the heavenly bodies will be burned up and dissolved, and the earth and the works that are done on it will be exposed. 11 Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of people ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness, 12 waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be set on fire and dissolved, and the heavenly bodies will melt as they burn! 13 But according to his promise we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.”

Compare 2 Peter 3:8-13 with Obadiah

Obadiah 1:1- 21 NLT

“1 This is the vision that the Sovereign Lord revealed to Obadiah concerning the land of Edom.

Edom’s Judgment Announced

“We have heard a message from the Lord that an ambassador was sent to the nations to say, “Get ready, everyone! Let’s assemble our armies and attack Edom!” 2 The Lord says to Edom, ‘I will cut you down to size among the nations; you will be greatly despised. 3 You have been deceived by your own pride because you live in a rock fortress and make your home high in the mountains. Who can ever reach us way up here?’ you ask boastfully. 4 But even if you soar as high as eagles and build your nest among the stars, I will bring you crashing down,’ says the Lord. 

“5 ‘If thieves came at night and robbed you (what a disaster awaits you!), they would not take everything. Those who harvest grapes always leave a few for the poor. But your enemies will wipe you out completely! 6 Every nook and cranny of Edom will be searched and looted.  Every treasure will be found and taken.

“7 ‘All your allies will turn against you. They will help to chase you from your land. They will promise you peace while plotting to deceive and destroy you. Your trusted friends will set traps for you, and you won’t even know about it. 8 At that time not a single wise person will be left in the whole land of Edom,” says the Lord. For on the mountains of Edom I will destroy everyone who has understanding. 9 The mightiest warriors of Teman will be terrified, and everyone on the mountains of Edom will be cut down in the slaughter.

Reasons for Edom’s Punishment

“10 ‘Because of the violence you did to your close relatives in Israel, you will be filled with shame and destroyed forever. 11 When they were invaded, you stood aloof, refusing to help them. Foreign invaders carried off their wealth and cast lots to divide up Jerusalem, but you acted like one of Israel’s enemies. 12 You should not have gloated when they exiled your relatives to distant lands. You should not have rejoiced when the people of Judah suffered such misfortune. You should not have spoken arrogantly in that terrible time of trouble. 

“13 ‘You should not have plundered the land of Israel when they were suffering such calamity. You should not have gloated over their destruction when they were suffering such calamity. You should not have seized their wealth when they were suffering such calamity. 14 You should not have stood at the crossroads, killing those who tried to escape. You should not have captured the survivors and handed them over in their terrible time of trouble.

Edom Destroyed, Israel Restored

“15 ‘The day is near when I, the Lord, will judge all godless nations! As you have done to Israel,     so it will be done to you. All your evil deeds will fall back on your own heads. 16 Just as you swallowed up my people on my holy mountain, so you and the surrounding nations will swallow the punishment I pour out on you. Yes, all you nations will drink and stagger and disappear from history. 17 “But Jerusalem will become a refuge for those who escape; it will be a holy place. And the people of Israel will come back to reclaim their inheritance. 18 The people of Israel will be a raging fire, and Edom a field of dry stubble. The descendants of Joseph will be a flame roaring across the field, devouring everything. There will be no survivors in Edom. I, the Lord, have spoken!

“19 ‘Then my people living in the Negev will occupy the mountains of Edom. Those living in the foothills of Judah will possess the Philistine plains and take over the fields of Ephraim and Samaria. And the people of Benjamin will occupy the land of Gilead. 20 The exiles of Israel will return to their land and occupy the Phoenician coast as far north as Zarephath. The captives from Jerusalem exiled in the north will return home and resettle the towns of the Negev. 21 Those who have been rescued will go up to Mount Zion in Jerusalem to rule over the mountains of Edom. And the Lord himself will be king!’”
