Oct. 26 - Wonder Wednesday: Let It Burn: Living in the Realm of Passion Part 2

What's going on lovequist Nation?

Thank you for tuning into the Love quest podcast.

Get your Bibles ready. Get you know people get your

coffee and get some water whatever you need to do and get

ready to receive the time. Is right now, let's go.

Sad is real when you got to be inside all the time, it is real.

That's why you got to be intentional about, pushing it

back. So we can enter into this season

being proactive or we can enter into this season, like we did

last year, all right? I feel it.

I feel it. We now you guys are the

superstars you push through. You came in spite of the

weather, but I feel like Like coming people's here Sunday

night. All right, so I was telling the

worship team. You guys really think God shows

up week after week so he can restart like every service.

Shouldn't be a restart in the fire.

Like if God light you on fire, you should run in this building

on fire. We shouldn't have to like reset

all the time. Like this sign of Revival is

people come in on fire, number one.

Number two, a good sign of Revival.

Know how to self start. They sell.

Right. So I know it's never an issue

with this space ever. I know the Lord lives here.

I've walked in this phase by myself with the lights off.

Nobody here. I know the Lord is here.

Right? But when it's this, like, you

are the rumor, what? Huh, I was over there is

thinking about how many people have heard of, is it Carrie

Gretzky anger? So it was Gretsky Gretsky,

Stephanie, Russians are how many people have heard?

How many people ever heard of Brooke?

We turn this off Leaf. Brooke.

Look, nigger would phrase or whatever?

I mean. Hillsong right you?

Right? You heard how many people heard

of Tasha Cobbs? Right?

How many people heard of what some other popular, Carrie job,

right? How many people ever heard of

Todd Delaney? How many people you've heard all

these people right now? If they came to our church you

guys would probably be like wow. Oh my God if Carrie Stephen

egress singer came up. Kari Jobe Joel was in Houston

Joe. Yeah, Houston.

Who were branded Lake if Maverick City came in here, you

know, it's like those are people.

You go pay for Or like most of you would pay for Hillsong if

they came or map City but then it's like I was sitting over

there and I was like man your people tripping because you got

all of that here, right? But the difference is, the

difference is is you got to be careful because he said I can't

really perform Miracles meaning. I can't show up how I want to in

my own home so the dangerous part about making a place your

church home and you got to you got to learn you got to be

mature enough spiritually to not let your church.

Home become home. Right?

It's it's home but it can't become the place where you kick

your feet up and your socks off and you just walk around and

just open the cabinets and you lose focus on the fact that this

is really God's house and you have to move with caution, you

have to move in a stock conscious state of awareness

that the king is here. He's giving you new mercy, new

Grace every single day. So you gotta be mature enough to

come with a new attitude every day.

You can't walk in here after he wrecked your life.

Sunday and then he got a stir you up again, Wednesday?

Right. That lets me know somewhere

between Sunday and Wednesday you forgot what he did.

Because if I return to the place, he saved me.

You have you ever go places that remind you of your childhood and

make you feel a certain way? Huh, well, well, well you just

came back to something. He did to you Sunday.

Are you returned in the same way?

Are you returning to like this is the place.

God transformed me. Right.

This is precious ground. This ain't no regular place.

This is a place that we got. Our always God can never move in

a place where there's not expressive gratitude.

He can't do it. And you have to be careful in.

This is why I'm always harp on it.

Because it's, it's an Apostolic profited nature that it keeps

people on their toes. How are angels still in heaven

crying? Holy That's been with God

forever. They still crying.

Holy Casting Crowns At His Feet. We come in, like we don't sing a

few songs. The evidence.

Is it be? Where will we forget that?

He's saved somebody child Sunday.

We forget he healed. Somebody's body Sunday.

It's just like It comes a place where you a place that used to

be your home. You begin to prepare it for

people to make it theirs. So you tell newcomers how to

respond at your house. So if you uptight at your house,

that's why I can come to the office 10 times and still got to

ask you what it can I go to the bathroom?

All right, this is a to whom it may concern.

You are the rumor, what? And we just like, like there

comes a place where God is Not Gonna bombard you with

Revelation, you actually have to posture yourself to desire,

revelation. and sometimes we're listening instead of being And

in our listening we can we come into a deep posture that will

tonight. I'm just going you know because

some time on normally get excited almost tonight imma just

be still and know that he God. Amen.

I just don't want us to miss it. I don't want us to miss it.

I want a community that knows how to go after.

God that go after God, that go after God before worship come go

after God. Go after God, like you go after

God, when there's a word release, you grab that thing

around with it, like, ah, I'm running with it, all right?

If you don't, you know, like expressive then I'm going for

sure, get on your nerves some time but I don't mind.

Amen. All right, let's get to the word

tonight. Have a seat and have a seat.

That was so good. Such good worship.

You guys are don't worship team and I appreciate you guys so

much. You guys are what I call Fire.

I'm excited. I'm excited.

I'm so excited. Why do you got y'all sitting out

there? You don't want to come in, you

just want to come close. I feel you.

I feel you. I feel you.

I feel you you window shopping. Hey man.

Hey man, I want to just hop in You know, passion is a choice.

Renewing, Your Mind is a choice being on fire for.

Jesus is a choice. The feeling of fire.

Catch up later, you gotta be crazy thinking.

Every time I walk up here, I'm on fire like physically, like

I'm going to do, I can't contain own us a choice.

Hey, let me see it. Let me let me help you

understand the be on fire. You got to carry Focus as well.

You gotta carry. As well.

You gotta carry Focus. You got to carry focus.

A focus Sunday. Night was phenomenal.

That was intentional. That was intentional activating.

All those people and all those people stay to the end.

How crazy is that? There's an unsaved man, wake up.

God is moving on people. God is changing people's lives,

man, folks Sons, and Daughters is coming home.

There's some testimonies, man, there was a son in the house,

I'm not going to even take, I'm not going to even say because I

don't want her upset, but I'm there with there, was it?

There was a um, but I gave you saying testify, that ain't my

child. Oh, I'm trying.

Not to like that. Ain't my job.

No. Oh well, I don't got.

No, I meant forgive me. I'm not saying no names.

I'm not saying no genders. I'm not saying nothing.

Right? Somebody, somebody somebody,

somebody family member came Sunday, right?

See, y'all don't know, y'all just come to Jersey and somebody

family member came Sunday responded to the altar call like

a bunch of people did, and that, that family member got into

some, some altercations. Let me put it like this.

That that person was in the butt.

Bucket. We've had a few people come from

the bucket, so so that person was part of the bucket and they

came. They came on Sunday, evening,

came up. Activated anointed came up for

another call and then came up in and talk to one of the leaders.

Then you going to try to narrow down which one is faster dude.

Talk to you talk to one of the members and the one of the

leaders and was just sharing, you know, man, I'm gonna place

man, man, everything got took from me all this.

Oh my God, everything got took. They tried to kill me.

They robbed me. They tried to kill me bus my

teeth. Try to kill me.

Pistol. Whip me.

All right, and I was telling you people go like pimps and

Hustlers coming in today. Going to come to this church sit

right next to you smell like a bunch of marijuana.

And with Coke on a mustache. Females got mustaches to come

on. They Comin, they Comin.

They Comin with it, come and get it come.

And they come in with cars and guns in the car.

They come in, they come and they let me tell you not every church

can take those kind of people. And yeah, I talked to him just

like man, are you man? I got a date to the only got my

phone on. Got nothing.

I got nothing. They took everything pistol with

me, tried to kill me. All I took all my money by my

was set up. I was okay.

And then another leader, talk to that person's family member that

go to this church. And that person was like, you

know, the robbery, put the person in debt.

All right, robbery. Put the person in debt and that

person family member being being the sole winner.

They are, it was a lie. It was, it was a whole lot of

lot. It was a lot of money, figured

out a way to get the money is within a little bit of time and

took a family member down to the person to the person that that

person old money to you following me, and sat down and

gave the person, they money on behalf of a family member, but

then set him down and begin the To him, right?

I don't know what then we can clap.

We thank lip and minister to him and let him know that all know

what you doing right now. But God got a plan for you, you

know, and I'm sure I know them, they pray for him and they left.

Now for me, the amount of money that you spent really was,

sometimes you think you saving money for one thing and then

sometime. God got you saving that as a

token to show somebody a prodigal that he's loved.

Right. However, God got to get the

people in the bucket, out the bucket.

They coming. They come on, stretch your hand

towards the bucket. And begin the break.

Go ahead and begin to pray for the lanes in the bucket.

If you got people in this bucket, began to pray for the

names. In this bucket, they coming home

sons and daughters are coming home.

Come on. I heard rumors sons and

daughters are coming home. They coming off the track.

They coming out the dope house. They coming out the crack house.

They coming out. Rehab they coming out the

hospital. They coming from far and near

they come in from out of the country.

Refugees are coming immigrants are coming, they coming out of

prison, they're coming off of drugs.

They're coming. Hallelujah give y'all the big

old shout. If you believe it.

Yes sir. Yes sir.

That's what I live for. That's why we do this.

It's why we do this. So this is why we keep the fire

lit. I don't want no drug addict to

walk off the street and come look at me having a stale

praised, some drug addict, go and come.

And be like, oh it ain't nothing going on here, it's dead people

here, I might as well go smoke snort, some old Coke because

it's dead people there. Your excitement ain't about you.

Get over yourself. Let It Burn living in the realm

of what. Passion say passion with

passion. Amen.

There's a fight for our passion. There's a fight for our passion.

If I go, if I go into the opponent's Arena, one of the

things that I love to do, and one of the things that players

love to do when they play Love quest is take the passion out of

the stands that part. That's why I came over to the

stands on Friday and said learn the game.

We just got a turnover and y'all quiet.

That's stupid. What?

You come to the game for and you've been there a week after

week and still don't know the game.

And then we got to do better love quest.

This is our witness. We had four Championship we

heading for a championship. The whole point for me is to

take the wind out of the Arena because if I can shut your team,

that your, if I could shut the stands down, then I can take the

energy out of the home team players.

See, see if the enemy can take our praise Elder.

John people don't get this Revelation, JT, look, JT, JT.

Look, you do know, we're on the road.

Some people don't even understand what I just said.

Do you do know that the church is the visiting team known?

As let me help you not love quest at round ball.

We're in this world. Not of it.

Which means, this isn't our home.

We're the visiting team, we're the ones on the road.

So when we Live a life and live with a passion that paralyzes

the enemy, then we can make advancement, you can't make it

Vance meant allowing the enemy to stay in the game.

And one thing that takes the enemy out is our praise because

you supposed to be down, you supposed to be quiet, you

supposed to be out, you supposed to be lethargic at the end of

the day on Wednesday. It's no different than the boxer

that's getting his butt whooped, but he ain't falling.

And the boxer is punching throwing every combo with all

his might. It's discouraging when you throw

your best punch and you still getting fought.

It's discouraging when you're up 20 and there's a team that will

not stop and they're creeping back.

Praise is super important to advance in the kingdom and to

living a life of power, the firming and effectual prayers or

the fervent and effectual. Praise makes power, not just

power, but tremendous power. What available?

He makes it available and so you still gotta use available power.

And we ain't even getting it to available.

There's also some hey, can I use your charger?

I lost mine. Can you got an extra charger?

Can I can I plug up to yours real quick?

It's no different than the virgins.

In half, didn't come prepared. So they wanted to borrow some

oil but you can't borrow none of my oil.

I will lend all your to people. That's pouring.

There's AA, but if you just hoarding oil you ain't out of

oil. You just got stay loyal.

You didn't wait for my olive oil, the honey.

There's some in there but it's pouring out, slow, can you own

use it? You don't stir it, you don't

try, you don't release it. You you do your stale.

Now, barroso me, your power, can I borrow some of your joy?

The only way you tap in the joy is having Joy by Faith.

You think my joy just gonna fuck, man?

You know what? It?

Take to get my joy, erfurt staying in the game patience.

Nah man. You might not feel how I feel

but you can still express how I express.

It may be at a jump on you. There's a fight for our passion

moving right along. Jesus died for your life.

Not your death Chaka. Khan, Chaka, Khan.

I pray today. That Wednesday way better than

Sunday. so the people that think they just getting prime time on

Sunday, Jesus died for your life.

Nacho death. He died for you to get up, not

stay down. Can I get an amen?

Just just because amen. Y'all ready.

Y'all ready? Y'all ready for this one?

Y'all ready for this? One?

Passion is a threat to death. Karina.

Tell these people to wake up, please.

Some time to were so good. I just got to be like, dang God.

I was just like dumb. I was in the dark and you gonna

share wisdom with me like this. Who am I?

That's the part that baffles me. Elder done is like, like there

was a place? No, no, kind of, I didn't had a

revelation. That cigarettes is bad.

You'd had a revelation. Now weed is killing, like it's

not her drinking. His kid sleeping around.

It's not like, you don't got that Revelation or two

self-control, then one day you gave your life to Jesus.

And then he just opens up his heart.

He opens up his pearls. He opens up his Mysteries to

you. That's how he's alive.

Like he's open up stuff. You don't even why passion is a

threat to death. What?

Even graduate from high school, let alone talk like this.

I wouldn't even ran no book called pass.

It is a dad to death. See, but I'm releasing it.

So then he gonna give me some more Pastor.

How long do you study? You ask the wrong question, you

should ask. How much do I release?

Go look at the talents. He gave more to the ones that

sold it. Invested it.

I'm investing tonight. So at the end of the day you

lose, if you don't take these gems chew on them, get more out

of it because it's more just in that one statement.

If you go sit on that 44 but 10-minutes just go sit on that

tomorrow with your favorite Java.

Watch how much comes out of that.

And then you get it and then you share it with your children or

share it with, like it's a time to share.

And then God is like, oh, I could share with her How much do

you read some of y'all read all the time and still stuck?

Make disciples not statues, Hebrews 10, I'm feeling yellow

tonight. A man slow down, pastor.

And let us consider and give a tenth of Continuous Care to

watching over one another watching, over one, another

watching, over one, another watch over one.

Another study in how we may stir up.

Not getting people business study, how you Meister not

studying them study, how you can stir up stimulate and insight to

love and helpful, deeds and Noble active.

Wait a minute, wait a minute. He said.

We should be watching over one another and a part of watching

over one, another is figuring out ways, we can stir each other

up. You ain't got nobody around you

that start you up. Right?

You want to be startup. That's why you looking for a

man. Oh, right.

Right? When you get horny, that's what

you did. He stirred you up.

She stirred, you up. You getting hot.

Don't do that to me. He stirred you up, right?

When you on Facebook, when you watch a farm.

When you do you getting stirred up, how did you get stirred up?

You put your eyes on something. That part.

That part, you know, when you, you know, when you when somebody

made you mad and you like you cool and you driving around, he

like wait a minute and you start really thinking about what they

did and you stir yourself up to now about to call him.

I'm turning around, you know, how to stir yourself up.

You know how you, you know, you know how when you when you kind

of mad and you looking Something wrong.

Well, what why are you looking for something wrong?

It's the when you find with something wrong, it stirs.

Your anger up. So it's all you want to stir

yourself up. Just look for something God has

done for you. Anybody can think of what God

has done in the last few days. Mom, and you stir yourself up.

Expression right there. That's what you feeling right

now is Passion. Now you gotta learn how to live

in this room when the enemy comes in like a flood.

Raise up a standard. Oh you did messed up with the

wrong one. It's passion.

I wouldn't born laying damn it, shut up.

You wasn't born stuck up. You came out crying and making

all kinds of noise. Starmon say start me Lord, he

says stir yourself up. That's what the Lord just says.

He said, not forsaking or neglecting to assemble together.

As Believers as is the habit of some people.

Look at just look at your neighbor and be like Is he

talking about? Is this scripture talking about

you? The habit of some people, you'll

call, man. We can call some people.

Hey, anybody know, remember at the church?

We are good, we just call them people.

The Lord has placed on our hearts right now and just saying

Oh you are what we love you. Absolutely.

Now you go back to do, whatever it was.

Hopefully the Lord is in it. Amen.

God bless God. Bless you.

How about a stream? Amen.

Amen. Hey man.

Hey man, give God a hand for whatever.

Do not neglect. The Gathering of the Saints.

Right. But admonishing warning urging

and encouraging one another and all the more Faithfully as you

see the day approaching, he's saying, what is going to keep us

in these last days? This is in context with which

stirring each other up and that's why when we come together

we got to have a culture of stirring, Peach, people

people's, hope up and love, man, people people at home for all

kind of reasons, whatever. The reason is, You're here.

Why we come together? Yes.

We come to get the word. Yes, we come to worship.

Yes we come to Fellowship but all of our inner encounters

should be some sort of stirring people should lead full of Hope

when they leave right? And this is important.

This is what the end of this is why the enemy is trying to keep

us from Gathering. And this is why their churches

are shutting down. Because if he could steal the

passion of a person, they are easily defeated.

If you have no passion. You are easy target for defeat.

John 7 says, now on the final and most important day of the

feast, Jesus stood, and he cried in a loud voice.

If any man is thirsty, Let him come to me and what drink?

So, even your thirst, your dehydration requires an action.

You you don't get your thirst quenched staying at home saying,

you thirsty. Yo yo faucet got water but you

still need to go to the what false it and you can't just go

to the fuck man. You remember when you was a

little kid you was playing outside.

You just pull up to the water hose and just Now we bougie, we

need filter water. Hey, man.

Write your thirst requires an action.

Your pain requires an action, your depression requires an

action, your anxiety requires an action.

Your poverty requires an action, like, whatever, whatever you're

going through. It requires an opposing

response. He who believes in me.

Who cleans to entrust in and relies on me.

As the scripture has said, from his innermost being can, these

can these things can these go up on the screen back here?

See huh. These flights go there or okay?

Amen. From his innermost did, how many

people in here? Believe in Jesus, raise your

hands, just raising, put them up high even a little bit.

All right. I'll put your hand down.

So this scripture is for you. he says for you Believers out of

your interview, began them innermost being The energy.

She was like, I don't know. I'm just keep it up, just in

case Jesus from his innermost being shall flow.

Not drip. Now I'm gonna get, no, I don't

got no drip on, I got that flow on, ain't got that drip, no,

drip on me. From his innermost being shall

flow continuously Springs and rivers of Living Water.

Is this living water? This is, this is, this is This

is an insult to what Jesus died for.

When there is a well, of Life inside of you.

And you won't let it out. And you let all kinds of Life

circumstances and excuses. Stop you from giving you don't

even understand that your breakthrough was on the other

side of your giving. Your breakthroughs.

On the other side of your releasing, you know, my focus

has to be on helping you break through because if breakthrough

comes out of me, they break through has to come through me.

Therefore, if I need break through the best way and

quickest way, like, like, like some people, like working in

retail, like clothing stores, because they get the disc

discount of the clothing store. Right.

If you like burgers like that much, you just work at a burger

spot. You get a burger every day.

Like if you won't break through. You have to be a person that

always gives this life because what he does is if you pour it,

he feels it. Listen, listen, good measure

pressed down shaken together and running over He will cause men

to give. So it's not just talking about

money if I need Joy. I give the one Talent of joy and

he's going to call somebody with by talents of joy that can

afford the poor. See if you a person has always

attracted other dead people. No, I don't want you to harvest

some money, man. I want to harvest a joyful

people. My I need I need because I know

some days I'm going to need them type of people around me.

I'm baptizing you here in the river.

John says, turn in your old life, in for Kingdom Life.

So just think about how you was pre Jesus, some of y'all was

more lit before Jesus. You was the life of the party

right youyou, he, but what he said, is this did I'm coming and

turning that all life in for Kingdom, I'm turning in and I'm

training them training in. See here, here's the key.

You got to turn in. Oh, you got to turn it down. you

know, when I went and got my license a few months ago,

whatever I have to turn the old one in Gotta turn to that.

Right? You want a refill doctor, no

glass. I love going to places where

they get your new glass every refill all on.

Like the people of this is my third drink and you just using

the same one. Same straw.

No, I've been chewing on that straw man.

Give me all new stuff. Well, broke, restaurant.

Can't even give me a new glad Amy.

Yeah, turning your old life in, for Kingdom Life.

The real action comes next. So John the Baptist is saying me

and everybody befall me. We not, we are not, we did not

get the experience. Y'all about to get seed Old

Testament. They they had to get a word.

They didn't have the word. They have to get a word.

They have to really hear from God, like all split.

The Red Sea. Whoa.

God is here. They needed them.

Kind of signs. They need it.

We really got it everywhere. We got all of this.

We got all in a evidence. I don't gotta do nothing else.

Moses didn't have too much. I get the right sermons off of

Day stuff. That's right, sermons off.

Uh, they really, really like we got a good week and we feel with

the Holy Ghost, we filled with the Holy Ghost, we filled with

the Holy Ghost main character in the drama compared to him.

I'm a merest stagehand. He will ignite the Kingdom Life

within you. So so for some of y'all tell me

this is Jesus in, you're not I mean, don't lie to me cuz I

should see some evidence. I'm not saying you're going to

dance, like the next person. Are you going to scream as loud

as the next person or but there but there got to be a we've

already discussed that you you are in charge of turning the

water on. You ever see a fire truck just

pull up to a fire and just look at the water holes.

You ever seen a fire truck? Pull up.

Pull the water hose out and just go like this.

What a what? No guess what somebody had to go

do. Turn it on.

Guess what you got to do? So easy, you can't be mad at how

other people are experiencing God, when they turn it on and

I'm choosing to turn it on. So if you cool with your little

lukewarm Walk With Jesus Gonna Keep the water off then, Walking

around that's like walking around with the water hose.

Timeout, and anybody thirsty? then I walk up walk up to you

and you like and I just put the water hose up and you you just

That water hoses, you walk around time out, you got a

church home and he was so excited about Jesus and you say

and what he done for you and you don't have no water coming out.

In the name of Jesus. Not know what not not if you

apart of Love quiz, he we gonna set you on fire or you just

gone. You just gonna get up out of

here. I don't know.

We just gonna get and let you just like watching fires.

So people like, watching fires, they weird like that.

I just want to be around. A lot of excited, people.

He said are you going to ignite the life within you a fire

within you the Holy Spirit within you changing you from the

inside out? He's going to clean house.

I want you to think about as I move to the next scripture.

I want you to think about what does make you a site.

Like what gets you what? What what actually makes you

express yourself, like what what makes what causes you to express

excitement. Right.

And then I ask, you does it compare to the presence of God

meaning, do you respond the same way?

So, I just want to let you know if it's and you can answer this,

is it life or death that makes you excited and then you got to

ask yourself. Dang.

I'm more excited about dead things.

I'm more excited about things that really don't give me life

back. It just feeds My Flesh.

So what do you have to be careful?

Is that you don't get high off of Flesh?

And then the day you need a spiritual encounter It's not

God's not coming. You're just not familiar.

So even if God wants to help you, you don't even know how to

it's like being in a relationship and you ain't love

that person. Well but you want them to love

you back but the deposits of not loving them.

Well won't even allow you to receive Right?

We create our own distance between us and God.

That's why he tells us draw to Him.

He will draw near to us. It's not God has left us.

It's not that you can't hear God, it's because God's not

going to fight over all the noise.

You let in you you let you let 1,000 drunk people in the house

and then you want to hear Like God's, he is he he loves us.

So he's not gonna fight with us over our choices.

You know, hosting your party, you sent out the invitations.

Don't just be walking around the house.

Like, how you get up in here? They're going to that little

demon going flash. Be like I got invited RSVP to

check your email yet. It is it just a big gap?

Jessabelle responded? Amen.

RSVP file, Spirit. Responded.

You let me in. Yeah, pharmakeia responded.

Check your list and your bouncer.

Let me in the door. How you going to kick out a

demon with a wristband? Some of y'all ain't went to the

club on you in the club. They try to kick you out with.

You don't got that stamp right there.

I got that stamp right there. Even with a stamp.

He got you. Giving out a foothold little.

Why would Jesus if he can kick if he could just get the demon

out all the time like why would he warned you not to give him

access? You and I give them access and

once he has legal access he has a legal right to take up

residence until you legally, kick his butt out his why

there's no partial Deliverance. You know partial Freedom.

It only get the bondage only gets worse and it seemed like

you over it because you coping and awareness does not mean

Freedom. So the trick is in this world is

to make you aware and you got knowledge of what's going on.

So, you think you got power cause you got knowledge but

Jesus didn't die for knowledge. Passion doesn't flow from your

head but it flows from your heart.

You see it is a key and a hearty.

Yeah, hello infomercial right there. passion does not blow

from your head so you can't be you can't think your way into an

encounter You say, renew your mind.

There's a certain level of undone.

This that's required passion, passion means fervor order,

enthusiasm Zeal, intense, emotion compelling action.

Passion applies to an emotion that is deeply stirring or I

love this or ungovernable. It's something that can't be

contained. You know why the enemy can

contain? Some of us because we don't have

no passion. It ain't the enemy did.

It ain't that I don't got no, no strongholds or no.

No challenges but I just got a passion that's way stronger than

any stronghold that I have. My passion for Jesus, my passion

for calls, purpose, and Mission is way stronger than my fear of

man. So even if anxiety comes, if, if

worry comes into my life, if if Terror comes at night, it has to

contend with this stirring. It is not just going to come in

and break into my life. Easy.

You don't have to contend with some system security.

Hallelujah, you're not just going to creep up on the

president or the prime minister. Are you not going to even creep

up on Kevin Hart? Like that.

Where we got top level intelligence rock is came out of

the presence of God with a with other, passionate people is came

from praising and worshipping for two, three, four, five, six,

seven hours. I just finish stirring my faith

up, my energy up, my passion up. So when I sleep in a bad dream,

come on, the enemy, try to interrupt my dreams, or

interrupt my sleep or or or some demonic Try to pounce on my bed.

It has to contend with something, you know, Damon bout

to just get in my bed and lay down and pull back the covers

and be like, hey, Terrance, no, you got to deal with all kinds

of stuff and, you know, let me wake up, my wife who I cover in

love, that's important because the last thing you need is

prayer. And from a wife, you ain't

loved. Oh, you need me now?

How, you know, she don't want to pray for you when she started,

trying to ask you all kind of questions.

So, what's going on? How long has it been going on?

Where does it hurt? Girl, I need you to pray right

now, you all we're asking. She don't want to pray.

Look when I say, I cover her this time is our way.

She'll see me, she'll hear me tossing and turning.

She like you, okay? And then I hear over there, you

know, somebody praying in tongues, you just hear her.

You got it here. The whenever you hear a you

know, as a sheikah by Vera, shout out us something good.

Hey halfway sleep but she praying for me.

She print why? Because there's been a deposit

and now I can't pray for myself necessarily or my faith is weak

or entire door. I'm afraid or I'm scared or it's

a panic attack occurs and you think Pastor T.

Haven't handled panic attacks? Come on.

You think Pastor T? Haven't had some moments in the

middle of the night where he's being tormented about death.

You think that doesn't have has not happened.

You don't think I got to open my mouth and fight for my sanity.

You think? I've never wanted to just quit

or question if they, if I've taken love quest as far as I

can, you know, you don't think none of that has happened.

You think I'm just living up in the clouds.

Just sipping mimosas with Abraham and

I am not in the cloud of witnesses.

I know, I'm on, I'm on, I'm on, I'm on, I'm on, I'm on a, I'm on

the visiting team. I'm gonna get heckled.

There's gonna be in the spirit round people cheering against

me. I'm gonna get tormented.

Sometimes I'm gonna I'm gonna hear things.

I'm gonna be week after pouring out.

I've also know I'm sitting over here in a chair after pouring

out, you know you just think opacity just got well he didn't

land handle, he's so kind. He just got the bothered hard

And people, if you understood that every hand, every every

single person not touch, there's something I can't, I can't

there's no impartation if I don't have nothing.

Here's Jesus. He said, man who was that?

That touch me. What'd he say something left

them? Do you go lay hands on 150, some

people or whatever it was and every single person not counting

the moments where we singing or wear lik, come up here and give

a word. That's the third service.

Can't do this in your natural ability.

And then come back on Tuesday, a study and have a word and

doesn't look my kids don't care. Nothing about no impartation.

They hungry might want to play catch.

They want to go to school, they need some lunch money.

They need to eat transfer. They need they don't care.

Nothing about none of that. So the anointing is real.

So why would I ever compromise? The very thing that is going to

Carry Me Through purpose. Says, fervor implies, a warm and

steady emotion. Look at this, from the Latin

verb patio or whatever it is for you Scholars passes, some to

suffer bear in door from which we also get patients.

Wait a minute, so passion is connected to patients.

Call faster T. So you wonder why you can't make

it through. Tough times.

You think it's about her or about him and when people say

they fell out of love, guess what they saying, they lost a

passion. And so the moment you lose your

passion for a situation. Now, you got to get out of it

because you think you fell out a love know.

You just lost passion because passion is the only thing that's

going to help you fight. Because you love that person,

but you lost passion, not for them.

But for the fight, So when you look at what it's going to cost

to get what you really want, you begin to look at what's wrong.

As your reason to walk away. And that's why many people don't

make it through the hard times and never see the top.

So will lie to ourselves and say we didn't want that.

To see home is it takes passion? To stay together to stay

married. It takes passion for The

Institute of Marriage, not the person.

So, we lose passion for the fight to stay together.

But in our carnal mind, all we can think is.

Oh, I don't want to be here because I don't love you.

The same know, Jesus didn't want to.

He almost lost his passion in the Garden of Gethsemane.

And then he was tested and then he said nevertheless, that's

what they called, the cup the cup of passion.

It's why you look up the definition of passion?

You'll find Jesus Christ. There's No Greater Love or

passion than for a man or woman to die for his friend.

Do you wonder how people go through some people have more

passion to live? Right?

Like you wonder how people get to the top.

How people eat out of trash cans and then become Billionaires.

If you fall out of the love fall out of love with the thing

you're doing. As long as you got passion for

the goal, you're trying to accomplish You can always find

ways to stay in the game. I was like, if my shot is off,

I'm more passionate about winning than scoring.

So when I'm more passionate about winning than scoring, I'll

do whatever it takes to win. You find some people, if they're

not scoring, you take them throughout the game and then you

find some people even when they shot his off, their rebounding,

they're playing defense. They're they're they're they're

they're talking, they're cheering their teammates on You

got to be more passionate about Jesus, then about getting the

spot. In about getting your own

Ministry and about getting your own way, you got to be more

passionate about God getting Glory out of your life.

Then you getting a selfish need met. and if we don't keep

passion this like on swallow us up young, How are you these

young kids killing each other because they don't have a

passion to live. This patients, then it goes

forward and says, gained popularity in Christian

theology. Referring to the sacrificial

suffering of Martyrs. And in the 16th century passion

began to refer to sexual love and a sense of strong liking or

enthusiasm seemingly the opposite of its original use.

So where the word passion began, It was about sacrifice, not

about pleasure. See you, you're looking for

excitement. You're looking for, just a

thrill you looking for perch? See, looking for happy, you

looking for endorphins you looking for.

Whoa, that's what you're looking for.

But what keeps you when? There's no way what keeps you

when? It's not going your way.

What keeps you in his ouch? For three months for three

years. cuz you got he said if you keep your eyes on me, keep

them on me. I'll give you perfect.

Peace. That surpasses.

So if it surpasses understanding, this piece can't

do with how I feel. Huh.

Sis and we've adopted a worldly perspective of passion.

That's why the enemy can easily disappoint us, and that's why

divorce is where it is. That's what relationships are

all over the place. That's why we change careers so

easy. That's why we don't handle fight

for our entrepreneurial goals and conviction.

That's why we go from church. That's why we do all these

things because we continuously looking for passion in the area

of enthusiasm excitement and happiness, not understanding

that true Is measured by The Depths the lengths, the width,

and the height. You are ready to sacrifice.

How much passion you have is measured and how far you're

willing to sacrifice. My passion for Jesus is why I

fight for my marriage. This this white don't work,

right? If if, if marriage is an

Institute, if that's supposed to reflect the church and Jesus,

then when Jesus hears Hebrews, when Jesus wanted to give up, He

says he endured the shame. Because he had his eyes on you.

So if you're going through something hard, it's not about

fixing them or fixing. How I feel.

It's about keeping your eyes on Jesus, and then he will fix it

the enemies after your passion, he's not after your passion for

the world. He's not after your passion for

nice things. He's after your passion for

Jesus because he's the only way truth and life.

He's the only one that can produce life in a storm victory

in a storm. So all the enemy gotta do is

throw a storm your way. We would see greater testimonies

if we kept our passion. Passion is what you have when

you don't have joy. Now this hurt this arm is hurt

this hurt when I'm going through this grieving hurts but I got to

keep my passion. See passion will Stomp all over

depression. so what we do, we give you meds we give you all

these things and we take these artificial Forms of happy and

excitement. The whole time it's killing our

natural ability to connect to Natural Life.

So, we become dependent. The Gates of Hell shall not and

cannot Prevail against the passionate.

You see this picture? The Gates of Hell shall not

Prevail against the church? That sounds like a path.

Like you got to be passionate bombarding.

This Gates. Yeah.

Are you crazy? You crazy to go on the city and

snatch, Souls out of the hands and out of the pits of hell, you

crazy, you don't crazy. Coming up here loving or

preaching her prepared, man is so many this millions or

thousands and thousands of pastors that are so happy to

hand over their Pulpit for someone else to preach three

times a month. They're happy to give you a nice

little outline, a plan joke, here in a plan joke there and

give you your 30 minutes 40 minutes and it is nothing wrong

with that. Don't get me wrong.

But what I'm telling you is the church will not last.

Appetizers. The passionate cannot be

contained or governed is what this is.

What the definition said. A minute ago, ungovernable, the

passionate cannot be contained or govern, therefore, whatever,

cannot be contained or governed is containing in governing?

The devil cannot keep a passionate, like, a truly

passionate person. You ever try to convince

somebody, this is like we kids, they think they know everything

and you can't tell them, that's not good.

They're so passionate about it, they did research they're

convinced. This is what this what Paul says

I'm convinced. We don't got enough convince

Christians. We got confused ones, but

convinced are, you can't tell me nothing Gathering three times on

a Sunday coming in on Wednesday, not making me stronger.

Let me help you out, you don't really understand.

The impact of your faithfulness until your faithfulness is

tested until a storm comes. You don't really understand.

So, don't think that. Oh man, it's been three months.

I've been doing and serving and oh I can't tell a difference and

you're not supposed to tell that kind of the significant

difference is when you're when some pressure is applied to your

life and you're like, wait a minute, I'm stopped responding

different, I didn't give up. This time.

So, if you can't be governed, your governing, if you can't be

contained, you must be contain eight.

The measure of your passion is gauged by the level and

distance. You are willing to carry out

sacrifice, Passion answers. The how bad do you want it?

Matthew 11 tells us come to me all you that are weary and heavy

laden and I will refresh you. I'll refresh your life for.

I'm your Oasis. Simply join your life with mine.

The passionate one learn my ways and you'll discover that I'm

gentle. Humble.

Easy to, please, man, do it. Do it really seemed like, God is

easy to please. Nope, for some of us.

But man, really walking with the Lord, simplifies your life.

Right. When he said, when he say Seek

me first and all this other stuff will be added to you, but

ain't it ain't it whole lot more tiresome when you're trying to

do all this other stuff and then squeeze him in the other stuff.

He says, we'll just focus on me and we going to get all of that,

but we prefer to focus all of that and then try to see where

he fit. You will find refreshment and

rest in me. For all that I require of you

will be pleasant and easy to Bear.

Why will it be pleasant? Because everything he requires

is to bring the best out of us. So when God ever tells, you

don't do that. He not trying to hate and stop

you from having fun. He actually sees there's about

to be a benefit on the underside other side of your obedience so

I know it seemed like whatever. He's asking you to give up here

oh my God it ain't gonna be but then on the other side of that

he's going to blow your mind with a different level of

excitement. This is the invitation back to

your first. Love to your Dane and

predestined purpose to your place of fulfillment.

Your place of ecstatic Joy, your place of Victory, freedom and

strength. Psalm.

He says, you will show me the path of life in your presence is

fullness of joy. And at your right hand, there

are Pleasures, forevermore God has been and I'm a man, I don't

have a month time right now, but the Lord, Lord.

This is important because as we begin to deal with soul went in

and all that on Sundays, passion is important because Souls is

Crisis greatest passion. He's like man, you worried about

a car house career, all this stuff, all of that stuff can be

added to you, just seek my kingdom and he that's why he

that winneth Souls is very wise, that is the key to life boy.

If you a Believer, the greatest thing, you can add to your life

is becoming a soul winner. Let me let me drop this on you

and then we'll get out of here. The Lord said, some people have

been wondering why these last few years have been hard.

Yes, pandemic, but I allowed that and some of you may be in

some specific situations. I want you to see what God has

been doing. I'm telling you, God has been

killing who you thought you were.

Okay, okay. That you want to know why you've

been going through a frustrating season.

God has been killing who you thought you were that rest?

So, he's changing your name. He he's letting you wrestle.

He said they Jacob said, I am not letting you go until you

what blessed me. God has been killing who you

thought you were and the day, you started letting go of who

you thought you was and let him represent himself to you.

You you starting to get a whole nother level of Peace.

Oh man. God has been killing.

Who you thought you were rather. It's been sickness, rather it's

been frustration. Rather it's been friends.

Falling walking away. Rather it's been family members

misunderstand rather it's been big blow-ups.

Rather you had to move rather, it's been lost, Whatever It Is.

God has been stripping away and allowing certain circumstances

because he has been killing who you thought you were because

he's about to present to Who you were created to be.

God is rerouting your passion because your passion was held

hostage by other things. God is reassessing your

affection, and he's redefining your purpose, and your purpose.

Again, I want you to see this and will close at X naught, man.

He has been killing who you thought you were.

Is there anybody that's gonna allow God to upgrade you?

Anybody ready for upgrade? What you thought your plans was

gonna be the building. You thought you was going by the

money, you thought you was gonna make the spouse.

You thought you was gonna marry. God has been killing all the

things that you have made in your life.

And he's about to bless you the way he created to bless you.

Well, if your hands up, right? Where you are, I want you to see

something that I'll pick up here next Wednesday.

Where's your team? Come up.

I want you to see this. We dealt with Paul or saw

before, he was Paul, I want you to see what God has been doing

in your life. Paul was, can you can you put

that scripture of action on Wow, are you ready to receive?

I want you to receive this. You can stay standing.

I want you to receive this. Bring it down, fall into the

ground. He heard a booming voice.

Say to him. Saul Saul.

Why are you persecuting me? The man accompanying saw were

stunned and speechless for. They heard a Heavenly voice.

But Casino one, next verse Saul replied.

Who are you? Lord, I am Jesus the Victorious.

The one you are persecuting, right?

When we, you don't understand, when Jesus is living in you, and

you rebellious and you disobedient, guess who you

persecute like you, Guess who you were finding like you.

It's the same kind of thing. You killing it when you're

disobedient. You killing a joy.

That's in you you killing the love that's in you.

You killing the hope that's in you and then there comes a point

like white jesus could have knocked all down years ago.

Everybody got a day where the Lord put a pause on your life.

And have this conversation with you.

He says now get up and go into the city where you will be told

what you are to do. He didn't tell him what to do.

The first thing he said is get up and go and then you've been

wondering why you've been walking through a city like

this. Watch this, watch this.

Watch this look Little Neck sit next to have known in the next.

Next next What's this, what's this?

As he was walking by the shore. No.

No. Is there a scripture before

that? If it's not, I got it on the top

of my head. Anyway, there's a scripture,

take it off, take it off, take it off because that's another

skirt. She won't get into next week

where he interrupted the fisherman's life.

He and a, he last two and a half years or so three years, he

interrupted your life. And I want you to see his he

said get up and go and when he told me to get up and go he was

blind so you've been going through a season where things

have not been clear. And the worst thing you should

have could have been doing in this easy as making big

decisions. Because he told you to go into

the City and then there I am going to tell you what to do.

Now listen he didn't say that. I am creating I am and then on

the other side he was preparing ananias to tell them what to do.

So that's why in this season, all lot of y'all met love quest

because it's here, he's starting to unravel you as well as giving

you instructions for what's next.

And for some of you, it's been five years has been three years

has been for years. Some of y'all See on or like

heavy y'all's about y'all was on your way to to Australia

Damascus. You had your letter, you had

your college acceptance letter, you had your friend, you had

your room say, you had your bags packed and the Lord, not your

bike down and you have not been able to see clear over the last

few years, that's why God is position.

You in such a place in such a time around such a man and woman

of God, that will give you instructions for what's next But

I want you to see something, he was the only one out of his

homeboys that heard from God. Not everyone in your circle is

hearing and getting the same message.

This ain't the season for you to worry about them coming.

This is a season of separation. This is a season where God is

talking to you. Specifically, he not talking to

your kids, he not talking to your parents, you're not talking

to your coworkers, he's not talking to know he talking to

you, he knocked you down, he put balls on you and that's why

people around you don't necessarily understand the pace

you're at. You can't explain when God has a

pace for you. And all they could think was

wait a minute, not upon us. All he was person.

He was, he was killing and the Lord said, get up.

I'm about to make this man. Preach the gospel.

And shocked the world and I really believe that God has been

killing who you thought you were because he's been redirecting,

your passion. He's been allowing you to fall

out of love with things. He's been changing your heart.

There's some stuff used to love to do you don't even love doing

them, no more. Some places you used to love

going and you like only one, I'm cool.

I'm just gonna stay home. Watch this little Netflix.

I don't even feel like going no more.

Certain friends. You couldn't wait to hang out

with. Now you just like, you know

what? I'm cool y'all go. you're

certain Hobbies used to like, At you wondering, sometimes you

some of you have been feeling conflicted about certain things,

you don't love no more. And Laura says, I need all of

that mental, real estate, all of that real estate.

I need it for what I'm about to do.

He says, Paul saw you have such a fervor to kill Christians.

I do not want to change your passion, I just want to.

I just want to change what your passion was aimed at I don't

know who that is for. But there's some gifts that God

used over the last several years that you're finding it hard.

And I'm here to tell you very clearly, he is asking you.

Your job is not to ask Lord, how long I got to put this gift

down, or this Talent down, or this relationship down.

Your job is to put it down and if he wants to use it, then he

will use it. Because he gave it to you in the

first place. He doesn't give you a gift so

you can just run to you die with it.

He's like, no, can I trust you with gifts?

And mentals, I can't, if you want to hold on to every gift

and talent and ability, I gave you But as you grow older, you

were created to evolve. You were not created.

Look, when you don't evolve, you lose passion.

To some of you, your life is boring or you don't find the

same passion you used to. You've been looking for passion,

but you still doing the same stuff.

Lourdes like, I want to use that gift for something else.

I want to, I want to use that same passion, your desire to

kill that, your desire to steal your desire to persecute.

I want it, I want you to torment.

Hell I want you to steal torment.

I want you to steal kill. I still want you to do that saw,

but I want you to do it for me. See all them.

Other murderers that you discipled.

I still want you to disciple. I just want you to disciple for

me. In the Lord is trying to

reignite your passion, but it's for something new.

There there's there's a Tran, there's a change, there's a

maturity, you've been looking for, in yourself.

The Lord says you already got it, but you can't see how much

you've grown doing the same thing.

I'ma say, it one more time, a little slower, you cannot see

how much you've been equipped and how much you've grown doing

the same thing? So Lord's been equipping.

You preparing you grounding you Renewing Your Mind transforming

you for the last several years, I don't know how long but you're

too afraid to Some of y'all wondering why you live in so

frustrated, or going on these emotional roller coasters.

I want you to see your posture. And you like God, I stepped up

Drew closer to you, these like you off balance.

Because if I put something in your hand right now and the

enemy just blow on you, you're going to topple over.

He's looking for people. That's two feet in.

Don't gotta have all the answers.

It's scary. But if I told you to go across,

if I told you to get in that boat and go across, I'm coming

with you. Because what you've learned in

this last season, it has to be tested in the new season.

So, if you want to experience a new level of joy and passion,

you got to let God reheat, you got to let God, put your gifts

and talents, and abilities in new contexts, and use them in

different ways. It's like muscles.

You can't do this. 14 year. You got to turn your hands over.

You gotta try one. You gotta isolate them.

You got to try all kind of stuff.

You got to get the resistance bands.

You can't just do the same exercise and expect growth at

some point that new exercise becomes old and ineffective.

And then you leave the gym because working out is boring

now. Because now working out requires

new exercises. So if we want to keep growing,

we have to allow the Lord to what is it.

When you take a plant and put it you got it.

Transplant. All right, if you going to be a

bigger fish, it's time for a new fish tank.

You can't be scared to get in the lake, you've been in that

pond for 10 years. It's time for a lake.

You're not going to get in the ocean.

Do a little tadpole in the whole chain you done lift your hands

Right Where You Are. And just beginning to pray,

right where you are? We just stirring up and believe

in New Passion for passion passion.

I will just lift your voice just for a moment.

seconds. We're going to sing this last

song. We're going to go home.

Come on, pray and release with fervor and with passion.

And you don't have to feel it, don't worry about who's around
