About this episode

Losing weight can feel like a roller coaster, full of ups, downs, and being thrown for loops, like when someone brings donuts into the office, or your kids' dino nuggets start giving you that look again.From the transcript

Identity is an evolution. In this powerful continuation of our ongoing identity conversation, Pastor Venshard Dobbins, Pastor Cora Jakes, Larissa Jakes, Pastor Don Johnson, and Anthony Olds answer questions concerning what it means to walk in who God says you are. They explore how purpose is often birthed from pain, how parenthood transforms your identity, and the specific courage required for women stepping into ministry.  

 

This panel addresses real struggles: pushing through the wilderness, healing without letting past experiences define you, and staying focused when your identity is under attack. They confront the hard questions and expose the dangers of environments that try to plant seeds of doubt in your fertile ground. The takeaway is clear: You were created to be fruitful — protect your soil. 

 

Questions discussed:  

• What does identity mean? 

• Why doesn’t my family support my new identity? 

• How do you stay focused when your identity is attacked? 

 

Speakers: Pastor Venshard Dobbins, Pastor Cora Jakes, Larissa Jakes, Pastor Don Johnson, and Anthony Olds 

Date: Sept. 16, 2026

We have been talking about identity. Go ahead and have a seat. We have been talking about identity. We have been talking about our identity in Christ. We just celebrated my father's 50 years of yes in ministry, 50 years of submission and surrender to God. And we had a little bit of a brunch afterwards to celebrate him. And as we're walking out of the brunch, I go, oh, dad, I need a real quick clip from you. I want you to talk to this generation, walk it out Wednesday. I want you to talk to them about identity. What does identity mean to you?

And before we could even get the mic out, he's just started flowing. So I want you all to take a look at this clip on what identity means to the father of this house, Bishop Jake. Be fruitful to Adam and Eve. He never said to be successful because you cannot be fruitful if you are not full of seed. You see determines the DNA of all that you're treating me up and in. Treat without seed is plastic. So when you find out who you really are and you go down to the seed, that's your core. And as long as you live, you will always be some form of that. It branch your leaf or tree or fading in the fall or blowing in the wind. You will always have a speck of that DNA that defines you, uniquely set apart from all others

who pretend to be you. You alone get to carry the impact and intensity of your life. Best he said it. Okay. When I was little, my dad used to give this story before every Q&A. People would come up to him and ask him for a picture. And he used to think like, that's so wow. Why would you ask for a picture when you're in the presence of such great wisdom seems like you would ask a question. And so he says this before every Q&A, whenever you're in a room that is opened up their hearts and their wisdom to you to ask a question. And so since we celebrated him Sunday, I said, hey y'all, let's extend to walk it out Wednesday to be a Q&A edition, where we can hear from you all and you can ask us questions about your identity, about your fate,

about whatever it is that you're going through. We want to hear from you tonight. And so that is what tonight is going to be about. It's going to be about hearing from you. We want to hear from your heart, from your spirit. And we want to give you the wisdom that we have. Anybody can sit and watch us. You could definitely put us in your stories. You could take pictures all night of us or you could ask a question. You could move past the fear of being seen, past the fear of will they understand and really ask a question that's going to leave you here with more understanding and more wisdom. What do you say? All right, let's get started. What does identity mean to you? Don't pass it on. Wow. What does identity mean to me? It is, it is the million dollar question that

doesn't have a destination, but has a journey. And what I mean by that is sometimes we think identity is only one aspect of us. When it's truly an evolution, an evolution of us. So there's not one thing that God has called me to do. I'm not just a husband. I'm also a father. I'm not just a father. I'm also a son. I'm not just a son. I'm also a Christian. And all of those things are comprised to make up my identity. But however, I'm also anointed. And I'm also annoyed. So two things can be true at the same time. But all those things are ingredients that makes up my identity. So I'm not looking for a destination understanding that my identity is really a journey. Oh, I like that. Um, Provi, when I, I don't want to ask you the same question, I want to ask you how did you find your identity? When did you know this is who I am? I think it occurred to

me that I was called to preach and teach the gospel. But more so, I didn't necessarily know the pastoring portion. But this is a, this is a 30 second version. It's approaching my senior year in college. I started preaching probably myself more junior year in college. My senior year right before my senior year, my best friend was murdered by his mother. It's a odd story. Um, they asked me to speak at his funeral. When I spoke at his funeral, Mrs. Embazuri, you can look this information up. I lost count at 112 of my peers, friends, and people in the community gave their life to God. I remember thinking this is what I'm

supposed to be doing for the rest of my life. My purpose was created out of pain. That's when I knew it's the thing that you would do for free. I knew my identity because I did not want to stop loving the people who loved me and loved my friend or had an inkling to love God. That's my story. That's pretty. That's very nice. Um, Anthony, you are a new father. And I have watched you over the years and I wonder how identity plays a role for you now as a father that is different from before you were a father. That is a great question. One of the things that I made a promise, one of the promises that I made to my wife, even my son, even though he can't

understand every single word that I said, uh, being one is I did not want to impose my identity on him. And sometimes when you are a father or you have a great relationship with a great man, you know, my dad is a great man. Love my dad. But there were some areas of my life that I felt I wanted to be and to do simply because I saw my dad do it. What I did not understand is the struggle that my dad had to go through behind closed doors to get to where he was. So I carried my entire life with this identity of I want to be my daddy. But what I had to realize was that what daddy had to go through to get to where he's at. I don't know if I'm built for that. So what I want to teach my son is not to try to be just like daddy. Find the God that daddy found to become who you are going to be when it's your time.

Oh, that's beautiful. Beautiful. Sissy bear. 2.0. We are women in ministry and it is a great resistance to women in ministry. I wonder how you grabbed the confidence that you walk in and your identity as a woman in ministry that is often rejected by the church for being one. Hello, there go. Can you hear me? I hear those call. Why is the hardest question for me? Oh my gosh. I will say this was reviewing no and me the story of no and me and Ruth and in that moment, Ruth didn't know that her destiny was attached to the one that would become the starter of the ministry of isolation. The lineage would have started with her at that point. However, she was

being led and she was attached to Ruth. Ruth was the provision that God has given her in the moment that she had called herself bitter. Don't call me no and me. Call me Mara. Bitterness because the Lord has dealt with me in bitterness. And I think that when we are in ministry, sometimes we don't want to call ourselves with what God have called us. We want to be whatever the trauma just happened in the church or whatever somebody just called you out because they know a little bit about your past and they remember you without the skirt. They remember you without the heels without the makeup. So in that moment, the provision was Ruth. Ruth was her provision. Although she calls herself, don't call me no more and me. I am Mara. The Bible will never

acknowledge the change of her name. God won't acknowledge even those circumstances took you out of your path for only a season. Although somebody said that you can't preach today, or you're not a pastor or you're not an elder yet, well, this is the circumstances. Although I am walking by sight, I do not live by it. So yes, someone can go ahead and tell me I can't preach or I can't minister or I can't pray for you, but I have to remember who called me first. I am made in his image. So in his image, that's who we are made of. I am wonderfully, fearfully made. I was formed in darkness. I was informed or shaped by the opinions of others. So therefore I can't really relate to what I can and can I do until God tells me because He has

ordered my steps. And there you have it. All right. I'm identity for me started very, very young, very young. Since I was five years old, y'all, I was saying I'm going to be a preacher just like my daddy. And I literally said that at my graduation, my kindergarten graduation took the mic out of her hand and said, my name is Korra Jake, I'm five years old and when I grow up, I'm going to be a preacher just like my daddy. I was in awe of my parents growing up. They were not afraid of demons. They were not afraid of witches. And we would see them cast out demons. We grew up in Pentecostal church. I mean, the blood of Jesus and casting demons out was like an every Sunday occurrence. And even we brought it over

to the Pater's house. My parents were casting out demons in the Pater's house. And casting out witches called my dad would call witches out. And they would come out. And he was doing deliverance. I would just be sitting there like, I want to be able to do that. I want to not be afraid of demons. I want to not be afraid of witches. I want them to be afraid of me. And as I continue to grow, everybody kept trying to tell me what I was. You're an intercessor, you're a prophet, you're this, you're that. And when God called me, this is why I tell people to call me Korah. I'm not really big on titles and things of that nature. But when God called me, he called me Korah. And so my identity was established when he called me by name. And he said, you're going to go

through most everything that a young woman goes through in order to minister effectively. And I said, okay, now I'd like to go back and hit her upside the head because of what? Girl, you don't even know what you're saying yes to. I didn't realize the weight of what my father had gone through. I just wanted to be a preacher just like my daddy. I wanted to not be afraid of demons like my daddy, but I didn't know what weight that took. I didn't know what kind of battle with fear and with faith that that would take. And so I continue to just grow in Korah because that's what he called me. He didn't say you're going to be a pastor. He didn't say you're going to be a preacher. He didn't say you're going to be a prophet. He said Korah. And so I moved

in Korah. And I think it's very important for us to know what our names mean because it is something that's been established as a seed in our life throughout our life. And it's very important. And my name happens to mean medicine, royal maiden and medicine of my middle name is Breon. And my sister gets a real big kick out of this because her name means princess. And my name means royal maiden. You know. So I have been a servant in the kingdom by name since birth. I have been a healer in the kingdom by name since birth. And so some of you you will find your identity in the seed of what you've been called your whole life. And so if you don't know what your name means, find it out so that you can start working and walking out in your identity.

I want to say something to what both of you just said. Why do you talk in Larissa and Korah? I thought about something that identity is wrapped up in authority. When you know who you are. You know how to operate and who you are. And it doesn't matter. Female, male, young, old. When you know your authority. And I am a football fanatic. Like I love the game of football. Like it's like faith, family, football. Like that's that's the order. You're true Texas. Faith, I'm a floor, but I'm a floor Texan as well. I'm a floor Texan and I mean all of that. No, but I thought about something as much as I love the game of football. I look at the average size of football players. Six four three hundred and some odd pounds. It doesn't matter how big they are.

There's a man that's on the field and a woman called a referee. It doesn't matter their size. It's the authority that they walk in. So no matter how violent you may be, there is one person they will not cross. And that's the referee. What says to me, authority has nothing to a size. It has knowing what you walk in. And you're going to stop when I say stop. I'm going to tell you when you're penalized. You're only going to move when I say it's time to move. So your size doesn't dictate movement. Authority does. When you know who you are, you can tell whatever big thing that it is. You've been operating this field too long. You've now been penalized. Get behind me, Satan. Authority has identity wrapped up in it. I love that. I love that. Okay, let's get our first question. And then we'll go to you, Jay. When you know you have a purpose after being

in the wilderness for years. And now you know who you are and who you are. No more fear, no more doubt, no more insecurities. How can you push forward? Here's a thing. I think we have to give ourselves more credit than we do. Your ability to recognize that you are no longer in the wilderness. You've already shown yourself and your devils that you are out and you have pressed forward. I think sometimes we wait for this massive divine moment, but sometimes God will use your common sense to bless you. And so I don't, I want you to know when that scripture says that you are uniquely, you are, you are fearfully and wonderfully made. The way that God has spasticed you and has made you and has cultivated gifts within you. Those innate things that he has given you, he will use those things there to allow you to recognize and reconcile with the fact I'm no longer who I was.

Almost through this microphone at you. I just want you to know that when you just say God, when you use your common sense to bless you. Yes. I just started though this mic at you. Because we can we wake up in the morning, the ability to walk, to move, to say hello. You don't understand the true gifts that you have because you expect for them to comfort some massive divine way. You woke up, bless. You woke up, a miracle. You you understand what I'm saying? You wake up with these things. And I think sometimes the body of Christ, we get so deep that we don't even know how to walk when things are shallow. So stop. Say that again. We get so deep. So deep that we don't know how to navigate life when in shallow because we've accommodated deep things. But sometimes God will use the most simple things to remind you that you are no longer where you are. So to whoever asked that question, you move forward the moment that you realize that you had no more

insecurities. Yeah. You had no more doubt. Use your mind and thank God for a good mind to recognize that. Yeah, I was going to say that the answer is in the question. That's how you move forward with no more fear, with no more doubt, with no more insecurities out of the wilderness. You you just pressed forward when Moses was called out of the wilderness. He just went as God told him to go and he had everything that he needed to just go. And so you've listed everything that you need to move forward. I need to not be fearful. I need to not have doubt. I need to not have any more insecurities. You say, I don't have none of that no more. So, my little girl, I love that. You know, when you talk of Moses, one thing that reminds me is that when he sends first the 12 spies, a lot of them come saying, my God, it's a giant, it's a land of giant. The other comes saying, you know what, there's

milk and honey in that land. And we could we can go ahead and take that land. Somebody in that mist already had the mindset of, I'm going to go and take what is mine. Roaderness is no longer my story. I am going to take that land because it's promised to me. Yeah. But Moses won't get to see that land. Because God will take him before he ever reaches canon. Although his people will, the promise continues, even though he'd never touched the land. He saw it, but he never touched it. But the 12 spies, the one that said, there's milk and honey, God bet on his belief, okay, there's milk and honey. I will work with your faith so you can go ahead and take the land by the power that I end authority that I have given you. So go ahead, walk in it because it's yours. I promised already,

now I'm fulfilling it. So I think when you know, when you're done with insecurities, it's when you break the relationship with the doubt. It's a relationship that you build through the years of someone giving that to you and you believing it, eating it every single day, that you are doubtful, that you're scared, that you're this. And then one day you realize the land that I'm about to take that God has showed me belongs to me and my people. My children will reap of milk and honey because he is, he will fulfill his promises. He's not a man that shall lie. God doesn't taunt us with goodness and mercy. Mercy is renewed every time you open your eyes. There's mercy. Yeah. You know, you know, no, no, no, go ahead, Jamie.

May I say something really quick to our sister Nicole Jackson that's watching online. Here's what I heard. I couldn't push past this. After you've gone through the fight, the question is how do I push forward? If we're honest, the fight, the test takes so much out of us. I kept hearing great answers. I'm all with them. What I hear is the strength has been depleted because of the fight. And sometimes it is not what's standing before us. It is what we went through to get there. That's good. So pushing is not necessarily your advantage. It's not necessarily your advantage right now. My caution would be, rather than to just go conquer the mountain, let's restore strength first. It's okay to take a break and to be restored first because you're

trying to push past natural things. That's why the water is shallow and it's difficult. I don't know who this is for. Somebody in the room, somebody, it could be you sister Nicole online. Allow God to replenish and to refresh you. I just wanted to say that. Beautiful. Beautiful. Go ahead, Jay. I had to run up here because I was writing notes before you even said anything. And when you started saying no, your name, I just had to come up here. This series of identity has really been messing with me. I was left hour after I was born by my mother. So one of the issues that I have is when I look in the mirror, I really don't look in the mirror because when I look in the mirror, I don't know. My eyes look like my mom, my eyes look like my dad, my ear, you know, do have my dad's ears. So my name is Janet Page. Janet means Yahweh's gracious page means young servant. I can't stand being called by my first name. I like my middle name because my adoptive dad used to call me that

all the time and I love to serve. So it means young servant. I have been battling for the past few months over suicidal ideations. One of the scriptures that I've been holding on to that I try to get through is first Kings chapter 19 verse four. And I'm bringing this up because it is suicidal awareness one and prevention month. So it says um but he went but he himself went a days journey into the wilderness and came into and came and sat down under a broom tree and he prayed that he might die and that it and said it is enough. Now Lord, take my life for I am no better than my fathers. I know who I am in God but I don't know who I am in me. And then when you guys brought up Moses, I relate to Moses because Moses had an issue with his he's Hebrew but he's Egyptian. So my question is and then on top of that I've been having you know my name on repeat

the past week. The new one will look Leandria because there's a lot of pain and a lot of crying in that version. So my question is even though I know who I am in God, how can I get better to learning who I am in me. Not the titles, not my lifestyle, not what I did but who I am in me. Thank you. I want to start with a scripture. I helped another young woman who was battling with very similar sorrow, suicidal ideations because her mother too had abandoned her. And I'm a farm believer that God gives us an answer to everything in the scripture and I had asked him for a scripture to help her and he gave me Isaiah 49, 15. And I'm just going to read it and I hope that you hear this and it blesses you as it it changed and broke shackles off of her. It says can a woman

forget her sucking child that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? Yeah. They may forget yet will I not forget the scripture is telling us that your mother and father may forget you but I will not forget you. I will remember you. I am the one who formed you. I am the one who set you apart. I am the one that when your mother and father first say you I am the one that will hold you up. You don't have to worry about the fact that your mother forgot you. I will remember you. And so the first thing I want you to to hold on to is that he knows you. He knows your

name and that you know who you are and God you said that but who are you in him? You're someone that he remembers. You're someone that he will never forget. You're someone that even when they put you to the side even when they forsake you I will hold you up. You're his servant. He has called you by name. And so sometimes it is important for us to be able to understand that doors are just that. Your mother was a door to bring forth the servant to bring forth the blessed gift to bring forth his anointed daughter. She was just a door but she is not the house. She is not the shelter. She is not the foundation. She is not the roof. She is not the builder. She's not even the former. She is just the door. And that doesn't make her horrible. It just makes her a door.

And so how you find yourself is not depending on the door to be the house. Not depending on the door to be the foundation. You are the house. You are the foundation. You are the walls that are being held up. You are the one that he remembered. He didn't say I remember the mother that forgot you. I remember the father that forgot you. No. I will remember you. I won't forget you. She forgot you. I won't forget you. And so that is your identity. I'm not forgotten. I may have been left by the door but I'm not forgotten. And I just wanted to put that. I know that my brother is about to rip all of his down. I'm going to take him. But I just wanted to start there and let that scripture be something that you can respond to the devil when he brings

up that you're not worthy. When he brings up that you were forgotten. When he brings up that your mother left you. When he brings up that your father is not there. When he brings up that your friends and your lifestyle and all of the things I want you to be able to respond with Isaiah 49, 15. Yeah. She may have forgotten me. Yeah. My father too. But guess who will not forget me. He won't forget me. I am going to part two of tell you why he won't forget you. I'm going to. The scripture you read is so important because the same man that goes up under that tree and say God killed me. The reason why he says that because if you back up a few verses, the Bible says and when he saw what she said, which means he had been listening to the wrong person. Oh my. It is extremely important that we don't let toxic seed. Come on partner. Get planted into

good ground. Yeah. Yeah. That's why he won't forget about you. That's the backup verse. But if you read verses ahead, the same scripture you read, the Bible says he lets him rest and he feeds him because of the journey that's ahead. Oh my. So maybe the enemy wants you to give up and want you to think God has forgotten you. Not because of the present. But because of the journey that's ahead. Yeah. And I want to say this to you personally. You are not what you did. Boom. That's the script you pull. I would do a part three. You look like God. Your ears are just like his. Your eyes are like his. Your nose look like his nose. Your mouth when you speak, it speaks his

word. The one that you just said in the next verse, it will say because I have written your name in the palm of my hands. Yes. So I won't forget you because you look like me. You carry my DNA in this earth. So yes, Pastor, he will give you rest that is needed because what you are is tired and not in the end of giving up that looks like tiredness, not defeat. So he will give you rest and he will feed you with the birds from the sky. He will feed you. But you look like God. You are made in his image. We are made in God's image. You don't need to know what your mother looked like. You don't need to know what your father looked like. I come from a mother that does till this day. She does not know what her father looks like. So when she looks at herself or when she looks at me, she wonders, do you look like him? But one day she came to a realization when God gave her

revelation, you look like me. Yeah. I created you. Oh, that's beautiful. He is your father. He cared for you. He nursed you to hell. Stay right there. And he will continue to do it till the end of your day because the days ahead, the journey ahead that you will encounter is saving the souls that is in the same space that you find yourself today. There's a lot more to be saved. There's a lot more to be reached and they depend on you getting some rest. So rest in the Lord. Let his peace be with you. Rest like David did in green pastures in the middle of war because he will give you rest. The reason why he went on to the cave, he heard rumors. It wasn't even true. All he heard was rumors. Don't let the rumors in your head or your circumstances

dictate what God already has promised you in the future. Your hands are full of lives that he will bring to your door. You told Dexter and I not long ago that you gave the booklet to the people that you once knew and that it changed their lives. You are already touching. You are already saving without even knowing that he's using you broken vessel that you are. Kalei in the potter's hands. This house is called the potter's house not because it's a beautiful name but because he mold us every single day. He creates us new with the same clay in his hands. His, your name is written in the palm of his hands. So every time you look at yourself in a mirror today you will look at yourself in a mirror and you will see God. God's eyes. God's ears. God's mouth. God's body.

For him to use you and be released of anything that the enemy have tried to tell you that you're not because there is no authority. There is no authority that the devil has over your life or anybody's life in this room. You're not the only one that has gone through this. We all have been in the same space one time. We all have needed somebody to lift us up when all we could see is the end of the well. And you are in the space. You're in the potter's house. Yes. You are home. You have a house. You have people around you that understand your pain and that one day they too needed rest. But rest from the Lord because in his hand he will nourish you back. Just like when you were left at that door. Just like when she was the door that left you he's going to nourish you again

into good health, into good mindset, into emotional intelligence because there are lives depended on your healing. And our healing. We need more of God. We need to understand that he's a father. When we call a father we mean father. We mean my daddy. The one that sees me. The God El Roy. The one that saw me in the middle of a desert when I had nothing and I left my child to die. He saw me. He sees you. He's the God in manual. When you take a step he's right next to you. He's the one that walks with you. He has not forsaken you because of the thoughts that you think you have. Thoughts are not always true. But you know what it is? His word. That's your food for the

next month. For the next year. Yes. For the next decade. Because the potter will restore everything that the locusts had tried to eat it from you. Not just from you. This house will testify that one day they saw a soul coming back and being restored in 10, 20, 30, 50 will follow you into this house. We are back in the chapel because the empty seats. We will be back one day in the sanctuary because it's full house again. And I prophesied today that it will be a full house in the potter's house. This house has the Holy Spirit. Life will be changed. You will be baptized by fire. The all consuming fire. The one that will not forsaken you. The one that remembers your

name. The one that will call you Jenna. Not because you don't like it. But because he named you. He called you from your mother's room. He knew you. He formed you. Go ahead and try to hide it. We all have tried to hide at some point. But you know what? The Bible will say that even if I make my bed and wear and wear, he will find me. And he has found you today. Those thoughts are bound and cast it out in the name of Jesus. You will no longer live the life that you're living. You will no longer step the way that you are stepping. Follow his footsteps on the sand as God has left it.

So you will know when the day of the Lord comes, you have something. You have souls to heaven and hand it over to him. This is our calling. It's not a show. Our calling is that the day of the Lord is coming. We have such a period of time. It's very short. And he has left his footsteps for us to follow. There's a book called The Prices Within by Serena Jakes. And you know what she says in that book that she taught the girls to say walk like mommy. Talk like mommy. And that is what God is asking us to do today. Walk like me. Talk like me. Because I am your father. I know what you need. I heard your cries. I heard the cries of the child in the middle of the desert. Hey, Gar. I know what that is like. And I sent my angel to say that I am the God that sees you.

Someone bless the Lord with her. Someone bless the Lord with her. Come on, come on, come on, come on. Because he doesn't just see her. He sees you. He doesn't just see her. He sees you. He sees you. He sees you. He sees you in your agony. He sees you in your pain. He sees you in your hurt. He sees you in your lostness. He doesn't just see her. He sees you. Lift up the name of Jesus. Come on and bless the name of Jesus with her. Thank you, Elroy. Thank you, Elroy. Thank you, Elroy. Thank you, Elroy. Thank you, elroy. Thank you, Elroy. Thank you, Elroy. Thank you, Elroy. Thank you for seeing us. Thank you for seeing us. When we're in despair seeing us,

when we're in sorrow, seeing us. When we're broken, seeing us. When we're scared, seeing us. Thank you, Elroy. You see us, you see us, you see us, you see us. And you have called us by name. There is none like you. There is none like you. Great God, great God. Those are my, those are my father's ears. Those are my father's eyes. Those are my father's cheeks. I'm made in his image. I don't have to know what my earthly people look like. I'm made in his image. I look in the mirror and those are my father's eyes. Those are my God's eyes. Those are my God's ears. Those are my God's hands. Those are my God's smile. Those are my God's teeth.

Those are my God's nose. That's my God in that mirror. That's my God in that mirror. That's my God in that mirror. I am his image. He is mine. My God, my God. I told you, I told you it's a fierce group up here. It's a fierce group up here. This, this question, I feel is almost kind of been answered, but I'll ask it anyway. She says, as a young girl, I was bullied, betrayed, my heart smashed, and hurt by others, which affected my identity and ability to trust. How can I heal without letting those experiences define me?

I think it was all previously answered, however, let me say this as a spiritual station identification. We may cast out demons. We may usher in the spirit of God. It is your assignment to follow up with counseling and clear cut therapy. Because Sister Janice articulate... What I thought about was Moses, whose name means drawn out. First of all, if I could just say this really quick, you can never judge anybody's praise.

Sister Janice, I just got total respect. I always respect, but I got a deeper respect for your praise. You never know why somebody is running, jumping, and shouting. But the real praise is the fact that she was drawn out of her mother's womb. If the enemy would have had his way, she would have never even been birthed. And so Amanda, this ties into the fact that you've been bullied, betrayed, and through so many different things, because it's a praise all by itself that you are still standing in spite of what you've gone through. You may not... We like to say, I don't want to be defined by my experiences. That's why I gave you the story early on. Sometimes your experiences do define you.

Sometimes the promise is really hidden in the problem. Sometimes the ministry really does come out of minute... Misery. So rather than creating a distinction, I think you should use it as a platform and a launching board to go back and encourage and strengthen other girls who've gone through what you've gone through, if that makes sense. Absolutely, and I absolutely agree, because I feel like sometimes growing up as a dark-skinned girl, we were in West Virginia until we were about six or seven. And it wasn't until we had moved down here that colorism was like a thing. My sister's light skin, and I am dark skin, but that was not a thing in West Virginia. And so when we came down here, I instantly became the ugly sister,

and that Sarah was ideally the pretty one. And it really caused a lot of confusion for me, because my father dots about us like crazy. So I was just very confused because my dad was like, you're beautiful, your eyes are beautiful, your skin is beautiful, you are beautiful. And he tell us all the time that we were beautiful, and again fearfully and wonderfully made. Like we all have really, I would say abnormal confidence. We do as as James Keehns, like we did, we walked different, we moved different, but it didn't change that people surrounding us tried to tear us down. They tried to tear us apart. They tried to pin us against each other. Even our giftings that people tried to make it a competitive thing between my sister and I always. And I grew up being very protective.

I'm a very protective big sister over my siblings. Everybody knows this. And so for me, I have always been the type of person to be anchored in what I wanted to believe about myself rather than what people were saying about me. And so I was never going to really subscribe to something that didn't really come into alignment with what I believed about me. And that's the thing about bullying is most people bully because of how they feel about themselves. Not really how they feel about you. And so then you can take that and you can empower yourself in such a way where you do turn it into ministry. I used to be bullied and now I go around the world communicating and talking to people about how to be free,

how to walk in the confidence that God has placed on me. I went through the word of God and I looked and I saw what God said about me and I began to anchor myself in the things that God said about me and I went to therapy and I went to counseling and I talked to people who were going to encourage me, who were going to uplift me and I partnered with other dark skinned beautiful black girls. And we rocked all over the church and we walked and we stomped and I made sure that we never felt like we were less than just because of the tone of our skin. We were bold, we were vivacious, we were awesome. And we are still fearfully and wonderfully made. So whatever it is that the bully's thought they did, I am a great component of reminding the devil of exactly where he is seated. Okay? Yeah. Defeated, demolished, dismissed, deleted, disconnected, destroyed.

These are your seats. Everything that you are sitting in doesn't have anything to do with me. And so I think that the fact that you are living and breathing and wanting to heal is a first step. That's the first step I want to heal from these experiences but don't let the experience control how it impacts others. This experience could be something that you use to really impact the world in a very positive way. I want to say something to what you just said about you all don't have an abnormal confidence. You all have the fruit of your father's seed. That's right. Now I want to talk to the importance of parents. What you say to your kids. Yeah. You can't take the responsibility to the negativity from somebody else.

One thing I've learned about my sons is he told me this the other day. He said, Daddy, how do you expect me to be different? You didn't teach me any different. Because I was like calm down, calm down. He was like, No. You didn't teach me that. And I didn't. His mother didn't. He said, You can come across as confidence. He said, You don't want me to have it? Well, how do you go back and undo what you've done for 22 years? Wow. And I thought about it when you said it. I was like, No, y'all don't have abnormal confidence. The people that don't understand the confidence have abnormal insecurities. Whoa. And then there's that. Teach your kids that they are beautifully and wonderfully made. So now I don't have to describe your ears. I've already told them what your ears look like when they were a baby. So that's just an apparent moment. Go ahead, Sarah. Give us your question.

Well, the first time that I came into the Potter's house was in a man's conference called Power Money in Six. PMS is a man's thing. Oh, yeah. It was in, I believe in 1997. 1997. Now, I've been here 25 plus years. What I'd like to ask you as our leaders and our pastors, how do you see the identity of the 50 plus year old saint in the Potter's house in this season? Oh, wow. Why are you pointing over here? Now, that's all the way, Vinciar. That's all the way, Vinciar. First of all, Elder bless you. You know, we've served together for many years. It's crazy. I just got a prophetic download identity, IDEN, TITY. I don't even need today's inspiration through you.

This is what the Holy Ghost just dropped on me. So you are apropos in asking the question because this is a little carnal, but there was this brown stint, sister's name, Janet Jackson, who would sing a song. And she would articulate what have you done for me? Oh, y'all know what's talking about. We wasn't supposed to respond. You tell PT do another fast. It's coming. Trust me. It's coming. Oh, yeah. It's headed down. So updating to lately is what does 2026 look for the modern potter's house, man?

Number one, it is based still in the text where chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, peculiar people were set apart by by God. We are the leaders of the nation of integrity, with the property, with the priests of our home, with the providers of our home. We are still gentlemen, we are leaders. But I think in this season for the devil that men are facing, AI devils. Come on. Can we talk about it? Emotional devils. Eiffeminate devils. Devils of divorce. Devils of no jobs. Devils of no clients. Can we just talk about all the different issues that men are dealing with? I just, you asked the question. So I got to say, this is the enemy fights both men and women. But if he gets the man, he's got the entire house. So he's trying to distract you because we're on your heart. But he's really trying to first destroy us.

Because if we're destroyed, then there is no wife. There is no son or daughter. I think where we upgrade in 2026 as men of the potter's house, we must hold up the bloodstained banner of Jesus Christ. We must walk in purpose, destiny, and legacy. We must save our money. We must invest in stock, cryptocurrency, 401Ks, 401Bs, money markets, and so much more. We must develop LLCs, S Corp, C Corp. You got me started. We must really build naturally and build spiritually. And you might not like this, but I'm old school. Whoever the leader is is the leader. Bishop Jakes is our head bishop, Pastor Torrey. Roberts is our senior pastor, where God is leading the man of God.

He must be leading us. You don't have to wonder what you're supposed to be doing. What comes directly across from the pulpit. The Apostle Paul says, follow me as I follow Christ. So when we hear the man of God leap into the spirit and speak the word of God, we must line up and be unified and in order. I like it. I like it a lot. Yeah, go ahead, honey. So my question is, how do you decipher between staying in a toxic environment that feels like you may have purpose there? By the second, a different path that seems to have better opportunities for your career? Well, I'd be a monkey's uncle on a Wednesday. Wow. Can you repeat that again? Wow. That's a great question.

How do you decipher between staying in a toxic environment that feels like you may have purpose there versus taking a different path that seems to have better opportunities for your career? Yeah. What I hear is the word produce. God does not always take us out of toxic environments because we don't feel good. That's right. It is for the building of your spiritual produce. I used to feel bad for the seed because the seed had to go in a dark place, a dirty place, a place where it had to hide under dirt from moles and worms and rocks. But why would I feel sorry for seed when the seed was going to sprout up to create a root, a branch? You understand what I'm saying? And later fruit.

This ciphering has a lot to do with, are you producing? Not it, you. Because sometimes you can be in a place where you just can't wait to get out of it because you don't like the boss. You don't like the colleagues, you don't like the supervisor, the SVP. You just don't like the company. Only to go to another company and have to face the same test with the same people. And then still try to figure out how do I produce in this now new word environment. Let me tell you something, Bishop told me. I shouldn't tell you. I should charge all for this. I was going through something one day and I didn't say anything. But you know your father knows me like a hawk. Some stare serving is just me and him. He looked at me, he said, Vincere. I very rarely talk about what I'm going to preach about before I preach about it.

He looked at me, he said storms come and storms go. Don't mind the wind. Just let it blow. It's wind. The chaos, the toxicity, it's just wind. It'll come. It'll go. You can go to a new place and mine I see it and then it might come in the next season. Don't mind the wind. Keep selling. I remember that sermon. You're talking about purpose and in the other you're talking about opportunity. And so you have to decide whether your purpose means more to you than the opportunity. Because there are spaces where God will send you where your purpose is needed. But the opportunity may not be. And so if you are more focused on looking for the opportunity, then you are practicing your purpose. And then you're going to end up in a cycle of repeated environments.

Like he said, you'll just go to the next thing. Because if you can see your purpose in the toxicity, but not in the opportunity, that's how you decipher. I want to be where my purpose is seen. I want to be where I can see my purpose. Anybody can have an open door. Anybody can have an open opportunity, but not a lot of people see their purpose. And so even if the environment, he prepares a table for us in the presence of a toxic environment. If I can see my purpose in it, then I'll sit at the table. I don't want to look for a different table just because there's toxicity around it. I want to learn how to sit at the table that he's preparing because my purpose is here. Can I change one word in your question? Just because I'm listening to my sister and it's about driving me crazy. Maybe it's not toxic. Maybe it's fertilizer.

If it helps you find your purpose. It's fertilizer stink. It does. It's fertilizer stink. It seems toxic. It smells toxic. It does. It smells like a bad idea. It really does. But it is fruitful and it is multiplying and it is producing. That's why the Holy Spirit told him produce. Because even though the environment smells, it doesn't smell good over here. It does, it sounds like a bad idea. It seems like a bad idea, but there is something being fertilized in this space. And you acknowledged it. I see my purpose and then I see opportunity. So I see that it's fertile. I see the fertilizer. I see it here. And so he's absolutely right. It may not be that it's toxic. It may be that it is fertilizing.

And we know all things. All levels work together. Everything. All things work together. Everything. And so I don't look for a good feeling. Look for purpose. Yeah. And if it helps you in purpose, it's not toxic. Wonderful, wonderful. Yeah. We'll take, I'm going to take an online question. How do you stay focused when your identity keeps being attacked? Your identity is not going to stop being attacked. It's not like the devil he has been hired to attack your identity. Okay. How you stay focused is focusing on the purpose. Focusing on the word of God. Focusing on the assignment. Focusing on where God is telling you to go. Do not look to the left or to the right. But look to the heels for which come if your help comes from the Lord. And so often it is easy. Listen. I didn't say that it wasn't going to be a difficult task.

It is easy to focus on the attack. It is very easy. We want a panic. I just talked about it. We want a panic. Everybody want to go to panic. It is something you want to panic. Everybody panic. But the Bible says, do not worry. But in prayer and thanksgiving and supplication. Make your request known unto the Lord. And what will happen? The God he will guard your heart and mind. If I am being attacked, I need a guard. If I am being attacked, I need somebody to protect me. I need somebody to stand guard over my heart, over my spirit. When the enemy comes in like a flood, God will build a standard against it. So I stay focused on the standard. I stay focused on the guard. I make my prayers and my thanksgiving and supplication known unto the Lord so that he can assign the guards to what is being called.

I do what is being attacked to my identity. But to wait for your identity to not be attacked. To wait for the devil to be like, okay, I am good on you. That is never going to happen. It is never going to happen. So you have to start telling the devil who you are. And it would be who you to start telling the devil who he is. You know, because he so often wants to tell you who you are. I've got to tell you, Evan just looked in the word and began to find out that this man is ineffective, defeated and down. Bad. Like he fell down like lightning from the sky. Like sometimes the devil will come and he will talk to me. And I just have to remind him, do you know that even with your power, I overcome your power. I do you know who I am. Is your name in the hand print of God.

Like, like did he form you and know you and set you apart now, homie? You are not it. Okay. You are not it. You are the weakest link here in this story. Okay. And so that's how you stay focused. Get in that word. Begin to find out who the devil is. And when he want to come and talk to you about you, go ahead and talk to him about him. Are you want to talk to me about me? Okay. Let me tell you about you. He leaves me alone. I like that. You know why? That reminds me of Jesus in the bowl of sleeping. And the storm is going on. And then you have to remember that John Peter, right? So you have to remember that all three of them, while Jesus is still sleeping, are looking, they're panicking. They're looking at the winds. They're looking at the thunderstorm and they're thinking, okay, this is about it.

This is our last day, last breath. I guess this is it. This was a nice journey up till here. But the one that created you is sleeping on the bowl. He's still asleep. Peace. So when he comes up and he wakes up and speaks to them, he says peace. He doesn't tell them for their peace to be still. He says peace be still. Because you've given your peace to somebody else, to the enemy to attack you. Because the Bible will tell you that the enemy is astute, like a snake, right? You have the Holy Spirit guiding you. You got it. It can't be more than that. It won't be more than that. Because when you remember the promise is that the head will bruise the heel of the head of Satan.

So you have to remember who you are in the midst of an attack, in the midst of false callings, in the midst of somebody calling you out of your name, because God already called you. Your mind, your mind, child, you have mind-heritance. I'm not going to allow you so that like the Bishop said, the enemy also has seeds. He plants seeds. He's going to go plant up seeds, seeds in your mind, seeds around you, that you're going to start to believe that that is true, that's the astuteness of the enemy. But you have to call out what God has called you to be. So I am wonderfully and fearfully made. My name is written in the palm of God's hands. So who am I to say otherwise than what God already has called me to be? So yeah, enemy, devil, you've been sentenced. The story already been written. The story is done.

The book already told me where you're ending up. I'm being saved every single day. I have a chance to wake up and call out my God and say the Lord of my salvation. I call up on you for this day. I know that the favor of God is over my head. I know that He has everything concerning me regarding me. It's in the palm of His hands. But you, you're sentenced. The story is done. It's been written already. I'm just living it out. I want to be in it out. I promise. So when I go up to heaven, I'm taking as many as I can. Because I won't be worshipping there by myself. I'm going to be there in the choir with all of you singing holy, holy, holy, holy, holy. And He's going to be in the abyss. Because that's the end of His story.

Yeah. Not mine. So you push that attack with telling Him you are already in the abyss. Yeah, you're already done for us, sir. You finished. You've been sentenced. We like it a lot. Go ahead. We're going to take these last two questions and then we're going to go into alter call. Come on. Come on. Losing weight can feel like a roller coaster. Full of ups, downs, and being thrown for loops. Like when someone brings donuts into the office. Or your kids, dino nuggets, start giving you that look again. That's why there's noom.

I assisted the camera peer earlier and I understand how she felt because I've known people, friends and family who has gone through that. And I like how you guys took your time because to me that was a matter of life and death.

And you guys did not rush through. You know, like sometimes you know you want other people to get questions in so you would kind of like get to the point. But this was a matter of life and death. So I like the way you guys took your time and did not really rush it. So what I wanted to ask if I'm out not out of order, there might be someone else because like I've fallen a vision for a very long time. And Bishop has a way of stirring up the spirit whenever he sees something is a matter of life and death. He'll wait. He said, you know what? If you all have to leave, I'm waiting for the one because there are a few more you left. So I want to ask you pastors, you may want to reach out whatever way you can tonight to someone else. Because there may be other people in here who is in the same situation as their sister who first came up here and this is this is urgent.

Absolutely. Well, as we shared in last services, if there is anyone and we have a counseling department here at the Potter's house for our our members and things they do virtual. A real counseling department. Yes, they are licensed. They are they are credited. They are able to help. And if you are in trouble right now in this moment watching online call 988. It can they can talk you through it. They can help you through it. They can give you the resources that you need. You are not alone. And I just want to declare over this room that you shall live and not die and declare the works of the Lord. I understand the devil to be a heavyweight. But your weight in God is stronger. God wants you here. You don't have breath in your body because you're not a part of his plan.

You have breath in your body because you are important to the plan of God today. If you were not important to the plan of God today, you would not be watching this. You would not be hearing this. You would not be surrounding in this room. You are important to the plan of God today. So you shall live and I declare that every attempt every thought will fail. Every attempt of suicide will fail. If you're listening right now and you're having suicidal ideations, I decree and I declare that every attempt is going to fail. Every attempt and every thought will be demolished by the power of the Holy Ghost. We tear down the access of the enemy. Every agenda. Every arrow. Every assignment and contract of the enemy against your life. We call it down by the power of the Holy Ghost. You have a life and that more abundantly in you, you shall live and declare the works of the Lord.

And the enemy means for evil. God is turning it around for your good. The enemies that you see today, you shall see no more. Even if that enemy is you. Even if that enemy is you. The enemy is my enemy. Not tonight. It shall be scattered. It shall be destroyed. You are not alone. We don't just stand as speakers tonight. We stand as shepherds tonight. We care about you. We care about your soul. We care about your heart. My sister said that this is not just the potter's house because it's a pretty name. It's the potter's house because we believe your claim. We believe that God is molding you, that he's shaping you, that your life has value, that it has meaning, that there is power, that there is anointing. That there is a legacy, that there is fruit, that there is joy, that there is peace, that there is power in you.

And we want you to live. We want you. I change that. We need you to live. If you're watching me right now and you want to give up, I'm just going to say, don't give up. Get up. Get up from that space. Do not make a permanent decision over a temporary storm. Do not make a permanent decision over a temporary crisis. Do not count yourself out when the devil is defeated. He is a defeated foe. He has indeed been sentenced. It's a fixed fight. It is a fixed fight. You have already won. You are more than a conqueror. You are more than a conqueror. Live. Live. Live. Well, you don't understand.

I do. I understand. I've been suicidal. I've tried to clock out of here. My therapist made me text her every morning and every night, I want to live. I still want to live. I want to live. I still want to live. I know what it's like to be so depressed, so attacked, in such sorrow that you want to give up. I know what it's like to cry yourself to sleep at night because that's all you have in you. I know what it's like to not want to live. I know what it's like to not speak into you because I don't know. I'm speaking to you because I know I'm living and breathing because I didn't give up. Because I didn't give up.

Because I let God breathe a life into me. I let him hold me up. I let him move me out of it. I let him move me out of the darkness and into the light. You have purpose in you. You deserve to live. Your family needs you to live. Your kids need you to live. Your siblings, my sister grabbed my face. She said, you can't leave me like this. You can't leave me like this. Your siblings need you to live. Your friends need you to live. It was the scream of my best friend. Live, please. Cora, don't do this. I'm a testimony of the grace of God. The car cut off before I could throw it off the bridge. He pulled me into the median before I could run into another car. I'm a testimony that you can live.

You can make it through this. You can get to the other side. I promise you. It is not a surprise that we are both in the birth month and the suicide awareness month. At the same time that we would be needing to birth while also fighting to live. In the same month, you shall live. You shall birth. You shall live. And you shall birth. Break through. It's on the other side of this. There's somebody in the room tonight who has been weeping internally. Somebody watching. That has been broken. I know that you are in need of the comfort and the peace of God.

I know him to be Jehovah Shalom. He is the God of peace. I know him to be Jehovah Shama. He is an ever-present help. In the time of trouble, I know him to be El Shaddai. He is a sufficient God. I know him to be Jehovah Jaira. He is a providing God. That's just not financial provision. I know him to provide comfort, to provide peace, to provide joy, to provide understanding, to provide clarity, to provide breakthrough. I know him to be a God that can destroy the oak. He is a deliverer. He is a redeemer. He is a revival. He is a restoreer. We thank you God. We thank you God. We thank you God.

God is your children stand around this altar. We ask God for you to touch them in a special way. And even those who God did not have the courage to come out. But you know they need. You know what they need. You know what they are in need of. I pray for you to touch them too. Those who are watching online that need to touch from you. You are the God of all gods. You can meet them right where they are. You are omnipresent. So I pray to God that you would meet them right where they are. God that you would break every stronghold, every yoke of the enemy. And that you would bring them out God out of the fire as pure gold. I thank you God for promotions that are happening. I thank you for doors that are opening. I thank you for favor that is falling. I thank you for the overflow. I thank you for the heads that are being anointed. I thank you for our company that runs over. I thank you God for your table that you prepare for us in the presence of our enemy. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow us all the days of our life.

We're grateful to know you. We're grateful to have you. We're grateful to be new. In flesh as our image is yours and your image is ours. May we be a good representation of the glory of who you are being revealed here on earth. I thank you for freedom tonight. I thank you for peace tonight. I thank you for the sweet rest coming against every tormenting spirit, every insomniac spirit, every torturous spirit. And I speak sweet rest, a peaceful rest, a restorative rest over your heart and over your mind that God deliver you from every stronghold. And you walk free for who the sun sets free. All my is free and deep. So let the free people say so.

How let the free people say so. Let the free people say so. There is water flowing. This seed tonight is an identity seed. It doesn't have to be a big one. It just has to be something that comes into alignment with who you believe God has called you to be. Maybe it's going to line up with your name tonight. Maybe it's going to line up with your purpose tonight. But I would be who you to put a seed in the ground as the water is flowing. That you're putting this seed in the ground saying, I know who I am. And when I came in here, I may not have known who I was, but Larissa, Elder Larissa told us,

when we look in the mirror, those are God's ears that I see. Those are God's ears that I see. That's God's eyes that I see. I didn't know who I was when I looked in the mirror when I came in here, but I'm leaving tonight. And I'm so in a seed into the identity of me in that mirror tonight. When I walk past the mirror, I'm going to see God in it. I'm going to see the image of God in it. When you have your seed, if it's on your phone or if it's in an envelope, I want you to just wave your phone, wave your seed. I believe that we reap what we sow. And that is even in seeds. We reap what we sow. And if my mother was here, she'd say, bless, bless, bless, bless, increase, increase, increase, increase,

great God, bless them, increase them, multiply them, every seed placed in the ground God. We are attaching it to who you have called us to be. So may it be manifested, may it be matured, may it be multiplied, may we not walk out of here lacking, but may we walk out of here having known that you have opened up the windows of heaven. And you are pouring us out of blessing that we do not have room enough to receive. So we thank you in advance. We give this seed cheerfully because we know that it's coming back to us. We know that you're going to restore everything that we have given tonight. And so we thank you in advance. We believe you in advance. We say glory to your name, great God, that you are. And we give you praise, glory and honor for we believe it is so. And so it is in Jesus' name, amen and amen again.

Go ahead and pass your envelopes to the right or the left of you. Wherever you see a PMT. I was going to say serve the people of God but they are already serving the people of God. I told you I had two announcements to give. I want to give those y'all this Sunday. This Sunday is 10 o'clock Sunday. Roman, do you see that? It is 10 a.m. service Sunday. From here on out, we kick off this Sunday. Services at 10 a.m. You can come here at 9 if you want. Okay, the doors may be open but church won't have started. 10 a.m. is our new service time and we start this Sunday. We want to see you in service at 10 a.m. And then the other very special thing is our pastor.

Our senior pastor, Pastor Torrey Roberts, affectionately. We'll be with us next Wednesday. He is going to be giving us a word. We're going to have a worship service. Tonight you do not want to miss it. We're going to be in the sanctuary next Wednesday with our senior pastors. And we want you to be a part of that. If you are clear in your heart, clear in your mind. Let's go ahead and unto them. Unto him. Who is able? How to keep us from falling? Our Lord, our Savior, our gracious God, we thank you for all that you are, for all that you've done, for everything you've stopped, and everything that you are bringing to pass. We say manifest, manifest your grace in us,

manifest your favor in us, manifest your power in us, manifest yourself in us. And we thank you for we believe that it is so. And so it is. God bless you and good night.
