Text: Hebrews 4:12
Rosh Hashanah – is the Hebrew New Year, and it begins at sundown on 9/11/2026 and ends at sundown on 9/13/2026.
Rosh Hashanah – means “Head of the Year” and marks the beginning of the Holy Days:

Prophetic Word: The Lord is saying that this new year 5787 will bring a SHIFT to the Body of Christ throughout the Nations!
Definition: Shift – means to move, change or transfer from one place, position, direction, or time to another.
If you listen, align your life to His Word, speak what He says and obey - this will be the year of Divine Shift in your life!

Rosh Hashanah takes place during the fall feasts each year, and there are 7 major feasts in Israel each year:

The 7 feasts must be fulfilled Prophetically for The Lord Jesus to Return!
Spring Feasts:
Passover
Feast of Unleavened Bread
Feast of First Fruits
Feast of Pentecost

Hebrews 4:12 ESV…For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
Ephesians 6:17 ESV…And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
Proverbs 18:21 ESV…Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits.

5787 is a year of Awakening, and Holy Spirit is going to awaken your:
Identity
Authority
Assignment
As you surrender to God’s awakening and circumcising of the heart, you will grasp your true identity, then you will receive your true authority, and then you will begin walking out your true assignment!

Definition – awaking is a profound Spiritual Renewal or changing of the way you think and perceive, it is a SHIFT from earthly viewpoints to Heavenly viewpoints – and that will change everything in your life!

When God Speaks in 5787, we must:
Listen and respond
Let Holy Spirit awaken areas of complacency in your life so that you can return to a position of true passion
Remember who you are because of whose you are (Identity)
Let Holy Spirit then move you into your Prophetic, Priestly, and Kingly Anointing
Remember that Hearing God and then acting on His Word will be necessary to receive everything that He has for you this year

Listen – Isaiah 55:3
Align – Amos 3:3
Speak – Hebrews 4:12

Restraining Orders In The Supernatural Realm-Alters P3

Definition: A restraining order is legal document or command issued by a judge that stops a person or being from taking a specific action or coming near a person or a family. A restraining order sets:
Stay away limits (distance)
No contact rules (contact)
Can be temporary or permanent (timeframe)
In the Realm of the Spirit, restraining orders are put in place in the Courtrooms of God through prayer and petition.

Daniel 7:9-10 ESV…As I looked, thrones were placed, and the Ancient of Days took His seat; His clothing was white as snow, and the hair of His head like pure wool; His throne was fiery flames; its wheels were burning fire. A stream of fire issued and came out from before Him; a thousand thousands served Him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before Him; the court sat in judgment, and the books were opened.
Court (H) Diyn – meaning a place of justice, and judgement in a courtroom setting.
Key: When God decrees an order from His courtroom, all reals are subject to it!

Isaiah 33:22 ESV…For the Lord is our Judge; the Lord is our Lawgiver; the Lord is our King; He will save us.
3 Aspects of God are revealed in this passage:
Lawgiver – God creates the laws
King – He then enforces the laws
Judge – He then interprets and applies the laws in the Courtrooms of Heaven and dispenses Justice
Parallel in the branches of the US government:
Lawgiver (Legislative branch) Congress
King – (Executive branch) President
Judge – (Judicial branch) Supreme Court

Definition: A Divine restraining order is a restraining or protective order that is issued by the Courts of Heaven to protect:
A son of daughter of God (person of destiny)
A family
An Institution (Church)
A business
A nation
In situations involving clear and present dangers to the pre-ordained purposes of God.
Jeremiah 29:11
Romans 8:29

The Principles of Divine Restraint:
God can’t use a man or a woman that he can’t restrain. (We must be under His authority)
Authority can’t be given without submission – this is the Philippians 2 principle.
You are subject to whatever you bow down to - (Luke 4:6).
Authority in the Kingdom ends with the restraining order over it is broken (Samson).

What Areas Do Divine Restraining Orders Cover?
What they protect:
They protect Territory
They protect Nations
They protect Families
They protect Churches
They protect God’s people of destiny
What they restrain:
They restrain ungodly, violent behavior
They restrain storms including tornadoes and hurricanes
They restrain God’s servants
They restrain fallen angles and demons
They restrain the enemy

How Do We Get Restraining Orders:

We enter the courtrooms of Heaven though The Blood of Jesus Christ.
We then repent before God – repentance is still needed under GRACE).
We present our case before the Father!
Bring the Constitution – stand on the Word of God.
File a petition – based on the Word of God, petition God for the removal of the demonic hindrance and for restoration of what was held back or stolen.
Enforce the decree – once the judgement is given, stand in authority, enforce peace, and evict the enemy!

Altars In Your Bloodline P2

Text: Judges 6:22-27

Text: Genesis 12:1-4
Go (H) Halak – meaning to walk away from, to leave, to depart…
Depart from what?
His country
His kindred (family)
His father’s house
Familiar – something that is well known, easily recognized, or closely understood because you have experienced before.

Everything that Abraham was called to leave represents familiar things!

God promised Abraham that if he responded in obedience He would:
Make a great nation of him
Bless him
Make his name great
Make him a blessing
Bless those who bless him
Curse those who curse him
Bless all the families of the earth through him

Notice: God asked him to leave three familiar things behind but promised him that he would give him 7 amazing blessings! This is a picture of redemption.

Revelation 13:8 KJV…And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
Where were the lambs slain? On the altar!
Remember that altars:
Are a gate between Heaven and Earth
Are a place of exchange
Are a supernatural landing strip

Repetitive patterns in a person’s life give a clue that an altar is in in operation.
Every altar has a strong man or supervisor.
Everyone must bow down at an altar to go up – whether it is God’s altar or the enemy’s altar!
A people of a Superior Priesthood have the power to tear down altars. (1 Peter 2:9)

Scriptures exposing repetitive patterns:
Genesis 12:10-20 – Abraham
Genesis 26:1-11 – Isaac
Genesis 27:26 – Jacob
It was like Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob were living from the same script!
God wants to flip the script in your life!

7 Keys to destroying altars in your bloodline:
You must build an altar to The Lord in your heart first – then you can destroy your father’s altars. (This key is found in Judges 6:22-27)
Understand that you can’t destroy altars unless you are standing on a Superior Altar
You must understand that it will require sacrifice
Ask Holy Spirit what altars exist in your bloodline and take that Revelation into the Courts of Heaven
When you pull down and altar, you must replace it with an opposing altar. (Lust/Holiness)
Now, leave your father’s altars behind and “Go”
Let Holy Spirit reprogram your thinking

Altars In The Bloodline
Genesis 9:20-22

Galatians 3:13 ESV…Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us—for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who is hanged on a tree”
Many issues that the people in the Body of Christ deal with go back to altars that have been built by someone in the family line.
But what about Galatians 3:13?

Genesis 1:26 NIV…Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”
Dominion (H) Radah – meaning to have dominion, rule, domination, and authority.

Keys to understanding Genesis 1:26:
God gave us authority, but not ownership
God reserved the right for eviction!
We are in charge of the earth, but we do not own it (Lordship principle)
He gave authority to male and female alike (gender is based on body and not spirit)

So, what is an altar? (Genesis 9:20-22)
It is a place of exchange (transaction)
It is a place where Heaven and earth meet
(a gate)
It is a place where power is exchanged for authority
It is a legal entry point into the world of men designed by God

Key Passage – Judges 6:20-26
This is the key to understanding why we need to take down altars – they hold us back!
The unholy altars of our fathers must be torn down, and altars of The Lord must be built in their place.
Many times, in the temple or synagogue, The Lord Jesus stood by the altar. Why? Because He understood the importance of altars.

Key Passage – Luke 21:1-4
The temple treasury box was by the altar
An altar is a place of exchange (transaction)
She laid down her power to buy, so God could take authority in the situation and bless her!
She understood something that the rich did not understand – the power of altars.

Matthew 18:18-29 NIV…Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. 19 Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven.
We bind and loose on earth, and Heaven responds as agreement takes place.

Key Passage – 2 Samuel 24:18-25
So, how do we take down altars (Unholy)
By going into the Courtrooms of Heaven through The Blood of Jesus and establishing legal rights – take authority!
How do we build altars (Holy)
Set a place apart for God, dedicate it to Him, and use it exclusively for Him.
