Fight with Your Prophecies | Midweek Service | Lizbeidy Aldama
Message Overview:
In this powerful midweek service, Lizbeidy Aldama — a daughter of the house, saved and delivered within Abode Church — brings a Spirit-led, uncompromising word on the prophetic. Before the formal sermon begins, the service moves through extended ministry moments: a live evangelism testimony of a young woman who had dreamed of hell and gave her life to Christ, a salvation moment with a man named Sebastian, and sharp exhortations on avoiding familiarity with the Word of God, receiving the righteousness of God as the foundation for holy living, and praying with thanksgiving rather than begging for what God has already given. The atmosphere throughout is one of revival urgency — every moment oriented toward the reality that the Lord is returning.
The sermon anchors in 1 Timothy 1:18: fight with your prophecies. Lizbeidy calls the church to treat prophetic words as weapons — to write them down, live as though they are already fulfilled, and hold them in faith through delay and opposition. Drawing from Habakkuk 2:2–4, she establishes that every prophecy has an appointed time, that God is never late, and that the just shall live by faith. Numbers 23:19 grounds the message in the character of God: He is not a man who lies. If He spoke it, it will come to pass.
The message closes with a direct charge to those who carry prophetic gifts but have withheld them out of pride or fear. Lizbeidy declares that congregants have struggled because words meant for them were never released — and that those who carry the gift will be accountable. She calls them to the front to repent, to commit to releasing what God has deposited, and to move in order, in love, and in submission to the house. Revival, she insists, is being held back not by God's unwillingness but by the church's silence.
Key Sections in This Message:
Don't Go Familiar with God's Word: Lizbeidy challenges the congregation to stop treating scripture and church attendance as routine. The same God who gave John 3:16 is the one who warned the lukewarm church in Revelation 3:16 — familiarity produces barrenness, and God's people must approach Him with expectation every time.
Righteousness Before Holiness: You cannot live holy by changing the outside first. Lizbeidy draws from 2 Corinthians 5:21 to show that receiving the revelation of your righteousness in Christ is what naturally produces the refusal of sin — transformation must start from the inside.
Fight with Your Prophecies: The anchor of the sermon. Based on 1 Timothy 1:18, Lizbeidy calls believers to get their prophecies, write them down, and live as though they are already fulfilled. Prophecy is not a comfort — it is a weapon for warfare, and faith is what keeps it alive through delay.
God Is Not Late — His Timing Is Perfect: Habakkuk 2:2–4, Ecclesiastes 3:11, and Acts 1:7 together establish that God's timing belongs to Him alone. The just shall live by faith, and faithfulness through the wait will result in beauty.
Pride and Fear Are Hindering Revival: The climactic charge of the message. Those carrying prophetic gifts who have stayed silent out of pride or fear have withheld what the congregation needed. Lizbeidy calls this out as a corporate failure and summons those people to repentance and release.
