Thank you for listening to this message from Damon Thompson Ministries.

Emmanuel moments are always encounters that by nature are intended to change the way that we measure time.

Emmanuel moments are always encounters that by nature are intended to change the way we measure time.

The original Emmanuel moment that shifted time shifted us from BC to AD.

Everything that happened before Christ fell in the BC category,

Anno Domino in the Year of Our Lord in the AD category and Odomina in the year of our Lord in the

AD category there was before Emmanuel and after Emmanuel my life has been

insufficiently marked by many encounters throughout my journey

insufficiently marked not because of any deficiency in the encounter but rather insufficiently

in the way that I expected those encounters to enhance what they were actually trying to permit me

to abandon.

They insufficiently marked me because I saw them as a means of enhancement of my systemic paradigm

rather than permission to exit my systemic paradigm.

A narcissistic perspective of greatness as it pertains to personal destiny was what Yahweh was, I believe,

for years trying to give me permission to abandon inside of my Emmanuel moments. I'm beginning

to inherit permission by way of honor to see that every Emmanuel moment is pregnant with an invitation

into the wilderness of exclusivity.

Because the wilderness is a destination generally avoided, our Emmanuel moments are historically

aborted. I'm going to read that again.

Oh, man.

Because the wilderness is a destination generally avoided,

our Emmanuel moments are historically aborted.
