God Warned Me What s Happening to THIS Capital City.

They were going to crack open a historic treasure and spoil a mission, quote-unquote, while doing so. And the Lord asked me to talk about seeing a pipeline running beneath the ground. The Lord said this. He said, I'm showing you these things for a reason. A retreat from the normal way of doing things is coming. A defying of authority from high up just to see what occurs. The removal of a statue of prominence. This is a bigger deal than you will realize at the moment. The removal And then I heard the Lord say, Hey y'all, this is Troy Black. So I heard a word recently that's kind of similar to at least the teaching side of this. And so I really know that the Lord is really wanting to hone in on this message and obviously kind of repeating it as necessary. I know that this is something that the Lord is speaking very vividly to the body of Christ right now. So this is going to hit home more for some people than others. I'm just going to share this So this was on August 10th when I heard this word and I would say, take this to the Lord in prayer. If you need to do that, definitely encourage you to test prophecy, test the words that are shared by the written word and by the Holy Spirit. We also have an archive on our website, TroyBlackVideos.com, where you can see that we follow up on these words and we stay accountable to the body, but also to the words that are shared. So this is what I heard. I heard the Lord say Austin, Texas. Okay. So that's the capital of Texas. For those that don't know, I live in Texas, so I knew that as soon as I heard it. But the Lord said Austin, Texas. He said they are removing the foundation stone. They are removing the foundation stone. And so the Lord asked me to share, I'm not going to give you the name, but a minister that I know personally, I recently, within the last few years, got a word for them that had to do with not removing the foundation stone at a ministry God was planting them in, but rather polishing it. To polish the foundation stone, not remove it. And then what I saw was that they weren't meant to be in that ministry indefinitely, right? But God put them there for a season and then he removed them, you know? And there's this idea of the foundation stone. And in that case, the foundation stone had been laid by people and it was people's expectations, right? It was the traditions of men, essentially. It was what the church had always done. Here's how we always do versus the leading of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is always wanting to lead us, but there is a foundation stone in Scripture that the Lord has told us never to touch, okay? So there are times where traditions will change in a church, the way a church does something. Even there are seasons where the church itself and the way that God interacts with his people seems to be different, you know? There seems to be a season for this, a season for that, different times that we're in. But there's a foundation stone that the entire Christian walk is built on that God has told us never to touch. And so I want to quickly remind you of that. And I know that the Lord is doing this for a reason. He asked me to talk about not touching the foundation stone in a believer's life when it comes to the cross. What does that mean? It's not just, well, I'm saved because Jesus died for me. It also has to do with my perspective on all of my life and the way that I do things and why I do everything I do. See, God wants us to be doing things because Jesus died for us and forgave us and set us free, not to try to get what Jesus's death has already provided. And the way that some of the church has taught us, unfortunately in some cases, has led us as Christians to still have the foundation stone at our foundation, but to start stepping on other foundation stones and to try to adjust that. This is Hebrews 2.1. The scripture is very clear. I'm just going to show you today the warning against doing this. Hebrews 2.1. For this reason, we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard so that we do not drift away from it. It's talking about the gospel. It's what it's talking about. And I shared this message a couple weeks back. It's been a word I got about J.D. Vance. So if you want to see that, it's a very similar message. But this is Colossians 1.21. It says, and although you, talking about believers, were previously alienated and hostile in attitude, engaged in evil deeds, that's where we were. But the Lord brought us from the kingdom of darkness to a kingdom of light. Look what it says. Yet he has now reconciled you in his body of flesh through death. You didn't reconcile yourself. I haven't reconciled myself. Jesus reconciled us, which means to bring us back into friendship with God. How? Through his body of flesh, through his death. So he's done the work. That's the foundation of Christianity. Jesus brought us into fellowship with the Father through his death on the cross and his resurrection. And it says, in order to present you before him holy and blameless beyond reproach. Again, we don't present ourselves before him holy and blameless. It's not up to our efforts. Jesus presents us holy and blameless based on what he did. Verse 23, if indeed you continue in the faith firmly established and steadfast and not shifting from the hope of the gospel that you have heard. So it's saying, what are we meant to do now? Continue in the faith firmly established and steadfast, not shifting from the hope of the gospel that we've heard. We're not keeping ourselves saved through our works, that it has nothing to do with it. We are remaining in Christ and abiding in him because our hope is centered in the gospel and it stays there, right? And I talked about Galatians 5.1 in that video earlier this month too. It says, it was for freedom that Christ set us free, therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery. We exist in a a place of freedom now, a covenant of freedom in Christ, where the Spirit of the Lord is there as freedom, right? What is the yoke of slavery? Well, Galatians, Paul's very clear that the yoke of slavery is trying to go back under the law of Moses when the word says we're no longer under the law, but we're under grace. So we're not going to be slaves to sin anymore, right? But look at this, Galatians 5, if you keep reading, look what it has to say, it's very interesting. Galatians 5.3, and I testify again to every man who has himself circumcised that he is obligated to keep the whole law. So Paul is saying, if you want to do this one thing, so some believers are coming and saying, you have to do this to be a good Christian, and they were adding, they're pulling one snippet out of the law of Moses, and circumcision was actually the sign that somebody was following the law and that they were obeying God in the old covenant, was a symbol of that. So he's saying, but if you want to do this one thing that they pulled out, guess what? Now you're going to have to go try to do the whole thing, and the word tells us no one is made perfect by obeying the law. So the law made nobody perfect. So it's an endless cycle of not pleasing God, essentially, right? And yet Paul's telling us, don't do that thing, don't go back under that thing. So what is he saying? He's warning believers today about, well, if I just add that one thing, you know, where this person's teaching this, you missed this, and that's why you're not blessed, or that, but the word says every spiritual blessing is ours in Christ Jesus. So we either go, well, I'm not blessed because, or I'm not, I don't have God's favor because, you know, or I can't hear from the Lord because I haven't done that one thing over there, or we realize, no, I have every spiritual blessing that I need in Christ based on what he did, and it's one or the other, where, you know, just like Paul's saying, he's saying either you remain in Christ and your hope is in him and the gospel and what he did, and every spiritual blessing is yours in Christ, all of God's promises are yes and amen in him, or you try to go get that one thing and add it, and it pulls you out, and now all of a sudden your focus is there, and everything's about trying to earn God's favor instead of just resting in God's favor that we've received freely through what Jesus did. And it says, you have been severed from Christ. This is a very serious warning. You who are seeking to be justified by the law, you have fallen from grace. Falling from grace is not making a mistake. Falling from grace is trying to be justified by the law. That's what the word says. It says, for we, through the spirit by faith, are waiting for the hope of righteousness. For in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything, but faith working through love. You were running well. Who hindered you from obeying the truth? This persuasion did not come from him who calls you. A little leaven leavens the whole lump of dough. So he's saying, God didn't speak this to you. He didn't tell you to go back and add this one thing back in. He's saying, no, that was somebody else from the outside led by the devil. It wasn't led by God. And he's saying, if you add a little bit of that, it's going to mess up a whole lot of fruit that God is trying to grow in our lives. He's saying, don't go back under there. He said, who has bewitched you is one of the translations. Who has bewitched you, right? That's very strong. Galatians 6.13. They want to have you circumcised so that they may boast in your flesh. This is the next chapter, but he's explaining the why. He's saying, why were those people that are coming? Why are they trying to get you to add that thing so that they may boast in your flesh? They're thinking fleshly thoughts, and they're trying to get us to think fleshly thoughts. But what does Paul say in chapter 5? He says, we through the Spirit by faith are waiting for the hope of righteousness. So we're walking by the Spirit. And guess what? If there's anything we need to do, the Holy Spirit's leading us to do that. If there's anything we don't need to do, he's not leading us to do that. That's walking by the Spirit, and that's by faith. The righteous shall live by faith. We walk by faith, not by sight. This still applies today. Look, verse 14 in Galatians 6, but far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. So this is what Paul is saying. He's saying, we can't boast in the flesh. It's not, oh look, I'm doing all these things, or well, you didn't do that one thing. It's no, I'm boasting what Jesus did for me, and I'm walking by the Spirit. Man, if there's something in my heart that needs to change or something in my actions that needs to change, I'm going to submit myself one to another, like the Word says, submit to other believers, but I'm also going to submit to the Word itself, and then I'm going to submit to Jesus. I'm going to submit to the Holy Spirit in my life, and I'm going to walk in the truth. I'm not walking in the kingdom of darkness because I've been pulled out of that by his grace. I'm going to walk in the kingdom of light. I'm going to walk in the truth now, but I'm not going to submit myself and put myself under the law of Moses because we're warned about that over and over and over again, and it actually says, then that's when the yoke of slavery comes back upon us, and Paul's saying, don't go back there. Walk in the freedom that Jesus has won for you at the cross. Walk by the power of the Holy Spirit in your life. You're going to see the gifts of the Spirit evidenced. You're going to see the voice of the Holy Spirit. It's going to be so much better. These are the blessings of God, the spiritual blessings of God that we receive in Christ. The favor of God is going to be so evident, and if we need correction, he's going to correct us because the Word says, the Lord disciplines those he loves, but he doesn't discipline us through a fear of punishment. He disciplines us out of that love. The Holy Spirit is gentle. He's long-suffering. He's patient. He's kind, but he's also the Spirit of truth, and so the Lord said this about the gospel. He said, don't you dare touch that stone or else fallout will ensue. There's a reason he's being harsh here, the same reason that the Spirit led Paul to be harsh in Galatians chapter 5, where he said, you were running well. Who hindered you? He's being very harsh there. He said, you've been severed from Christ. He's saying, don't touch this foundation stone, which is the gospel, the fact that Jesus has done it all on the cross. The Lord said, Austin, Texas, so going back to that word I heard at the beginning, he said, Austin, Texas is in for a season of removal, removal of the brakes that held it in place for a season, taking their foot off of one pedal and flooring it on another. So it's that picture of taking your foot off the brake and hitting the gas, right? And he said, from the Yes, even the digging up of a road that was not meant to be undone, and I don't know if this is a road that cars drive on, or if it's a walkway, a pathway, or you know, could be something near a monument or something, but that was what I heard. And I heard, just to see what is beneath it, just to see what's below under the dirt, they were going to crack open a historic treasure and spoil a mission, quote-unquote, while doing so. And the Lord asked me to talk about seeing a pipeline running beneath the ground and how it could potentially be involved in this. So it's very interesting. The Lord said this, he said, I'm showing you these things for a reason. A retreat from the normal way of doing things is coming to your home state. So I'm in Texas. A defiant of authority from high up just to see what occurs. The removal of a statue of prominence, and I don't know if that's literal, figurative, metaphorical, but that's what I heard. And then I heard the Lord say, this is a bigger deal than you will realize at the moment. The removal of a permanent landmark or supposed to be permanent. And then I heard this is coming by springtime. Plans are going to be laid down by spring and fall will bring about a finalization of those plans. So I don't know if the actual thing's going to be removed by the fall or not, but he said at least a finalization of those plans. So maybe we would see it removed after that timeline. I'm not sure, or maybe within, but there it is. That's the word I heard. So y'all pray about it, test it, and pray about it if you need to. Ask the Lord if he would show you anything else that goes into that. And I love y'all so much, and I'll see you next time.
