Thank you for tuning into the Love quest podcast.

Get your Bibles ready? Get your notebook, get your
-
coffee, get some water, whatever you need to do and get ready to
-
receive the time. Is right now.
-
Let's go. Please have your way.
-
Holy Spirit, help me here today because I'll show need help.
-
And my neighbor needs more help in Jesus name, amen.
-
Some of y'all said that part of little louder.
-
Hey man. Can we give it up our first
-
time? Attendees one more time.
-
Absolutely. And all to our to our streaming
-
audience, I personally want to say what's up on behalf of me
-
and my wife. Are they say, what's up?
-
How you doing? Hope all is well, comment.
-
Give us feedback but I promise you.
-
You do not want to be walking around the kitchen and all that
-
stuff right now. You probably want to catch this
-
word sat down in Jesus name. All right, it's going to be a
-
wonderful day. It's already a good day.
-
When I hop back in the insufficient funds, I don't know
-
about you, man. But God has even day one of the
-
three months has already been bringing rest in my life.
-
It's funny when you decide to clean stuff, you've been
-
clinging to how Freedom comes. You think you need more and the
-
Lord says you just need less, you need that less stress.
-
Some of you need less friends. All them people, ain't your
-
friends. Right.
-
You need left. Less coffee meetings.
-
Hey man, you need less apps. You need less, less social
-
media. You need to stay out of you need
-
to stay out of more people's business.
-
So, less nosy. Right.
-
Look at your neighbor and say, put your nose back on your face,
-
amen. Put your nose back on your face,
-
amen. But the idea is not enough.
-
Is what? Come on, not enough is what one
-
more time, not enough is what more than enough in a world
-
where we are driven by more driven by big driven by next.
-
And we are driven in a world where it's, like, grind if you
-
don't grind you xuu not successful in, like I said, big
-
doesn't mean strong small doesn't mean week.
-
But if you are a child of God, you can't live and be nourished
-
by the things of the world. Period Point Blank.
-
You can't live 100% in Trust of the world's economy.
-
Point Blank. It just won't work.
-
Write your trust, can't be 100% in government officials spouses
-
children jobs. It just does not work that way.
-
And what I find is there is more Believers that are as stressed
-
out as anxious as double minded as angry as divorced as addicted
-
to drugs as depressed as anxious as the world.
-
So what you get saved from We got just as many people in the
-
church that watch porn. Where would you get saved from?
-
Just, as many people that smoke medicinal marijuana.
-
Right? You don't make it more Godly cuz
-
it's medicinal or you got to bet you have back issues before you
-
had a card. Amen.
-
I just smell it in the room. Somebody somebody you still, you
-
didn't wash his jeans. Good enough.
-
I don't know who you are, but, amen.
-
No, but the point is, is the world's ways.
-
I'm telling you, they're fading. So anyone in here, that depends
-
on the world, let me tell you straight up, you will be
-
disappointed soon. Don't let another pandemic
-
happen. Well, here's the good news, it's
-
many happening already. Just the world is not calling
-
you to alert. What if we just stopped
-
everything because of racism? What if we stop everything
-
because of Injustice on an Aboriginal people?
-
What have we just shut down and told everybody don't go back to
-
work until you learn how to love.
-
Right. That's not the world's priority,
-
that's the Kingdom's priority. So the Lord saying Paul's until
-
we so we can advance the kingdom because the world is going to
-
hell in a handbasket and the Christians going to walk him up
-
to the door. What I mean by like we eternally
-
safe. But if we're not doing anything,
-
we're escorting, the lost people to hell.
-
Are you an escort? Amen.
-
You called to be an escort to one place or another heaven or
-
hell. And if you believe hell is a
-
real place, you got to believe Heaven is.
-
If you believe hell's on Earth, you got to believe the kingdom
-
can be on earth as well. The kingdom of God, choose you
-
this day life or death. I'm a dive right into this
-
because I could just talk to you all day because you family,
-
second Corinthians 12, but he answered me.
-
My grace is always, I hope I don't get stuck on always.
-
But what is always mean? Every time, every circumstance,
-
every situation, every relationship, all day, Erry day,
-
say always, he's always more than enough.
-
What is more mean? What is more than Greater than
-
Can't Touch This. Peon. huh exceedingly, overflow
-
more than Iggy. So let's take out enough and
-
let's put your problems there. Come on.
-
You all wish we use the church that handed you a little little
-
piece of paper where you can fill in the blanks know.
-
Some of y'all have filled in the blank on the paper and not in
-
your heart. Amen.
-
Talk to him. Pastor, talk to him Pastor more
-
than no, no no, you wasn't listening.
-
More than yo problems. More than sick.
-
Come on. Talk to me.
-
Huh, won't you tell your neighbor one at the blank?
-
Because y'all just all talking to me is overwhelming me right
-
now. Tell tell your neighbor more
-
than Anybody sitting next to somebody.
-
That didn't give them an answer. Alright?
-
Talk to isn't gonna give him a chance against a the Lord needs
-
you to interact. Come on, more than what More
-
Than Pride. More Than Pride, your husband
-
said More Than Pride. So the Lord's working on his
-
heart, Take more than what. Fries.
-
Yeah. Hey, who got French fry issues?
-
Who got French fry issues. That's what weak spot on me.
-
Amen. All right.
-
He's always, that's a mouthful, he's always more than enough.
-
He's not always enough. The Lord didn't come in your
-
life to be enough. Right?
-
You go to a job and they can pay you enough, but the Lord doesn't
-
come in your life to be enough, he comes in your life to be what
-
more than enough, come on scream out.
-
More than enough, look for you, not me.
-
I bet most of you believe that he's good and more than enough
-
for someone else but he's more than enough for you Lily.
-
And my power Finds Its full expression, always more than
-
enough full expression. So he also does not come in your
-
life to do part of a job. Full expression through your
-
weakness, not your education. Through your weakness, not your
-
pride. Look, he says I can fully
-
Express who I am through your weakness.
-
So why do we keep our weakness from him?
-
He don't work. I'll tell you man, covered up
-
stuff it down. Keep it pushing, especially
-
where I grew up. We ain't had time to be weekly
-
at time to cry. We didn't have time to get no
-
therapy. Couldn't afford.
-
No therapy. So, we have to keep it pushing.
-
We have to do the best, we knew how we didn't have resources, we
-
didn't have the money daddy gone.
-
That's just where I'm from. Prostitution, drug addiction.
-
That's that deaths. So and you live in and there's
-
places in this world. They don't have no other choice,
-
but God, that's why they see God with a lot of you.
-
And here got options, God's one of them.
-
And what's God saying, as I don't want to be an option.
-
I'm first foremost, I'm everything, right.
-
Some of you putting your joy and happiness on hold till you get
-
married. You putting your joy and
-
happiness on hold till you start your career, putting your joy
-
and happiness on hold till you get accepted in that college
-
like Joy is not given to you to be put on hold.
-
It looks a, I will not put my joy on hold another hour.
-
What did your neighbor say you shouldn't too?
-
He said, full expression, his full expression, I don't know
-
about you but I don't want God's part expression but full
-
expression through your weakness.
-
So here's what he says in response to what God Said, I
-
will then celebrate my weaknesses.
-
He did not say I'm going to walk around and say I'm a heck of a
-
week on week. I'm defeated.
-
Feed it. Hay.
-
Defeat it a she got over on me. She got over on me.
-
Devil is defeated. I see that some of these.
-
All right. He said I was celebrating my
-
weakness. So instead of instead of
-
magnifying my defeat or my weakness, I magnify his victory
-
over my weakness. So he said I celebrate my
-
weaknesses. He's not merely celebrating.
-
Oh, I'm in a pit. Oh, I'm sick.
-
Oh, I've been left. I've been isolated.
-
I've been I've been left behind. Oh, I got fired.
-
Oh, I'm ignorant in certain areas of my life.
-
Oh, I don't have the degree or the resume to do.
-
Oh no, he's saying that my God can, my God will he celebrating
-
is weaknesses in God's strength and the problem is in your
-
weakness. Can you put the attention on God
-
and not? Circumstance.
-
He said o magnify the Lord with me and let us exalt his name
-
together. Your solution is in one of his
-
name's. So, you can talk about the
-
solution or you could talk about the problem.
-
Dealing with sickness, don't magnify sickness, magnify Rafa?
-
Magnifying Rafa is not ignoring sickness.
-
You ever, I don't know if he uses language here but back
-
home. Maybe like, I'm gonna sic my dog
-
on you. Right here, Canada sick.
-
You see? Yeah, cuz I ain't never seen no
-
dogs here. That's like, that's like yeah.
-
Dogs here apologetic. Hey dogs back home.
-
Take your Slurpee. They just be like, give me give
-
me this email slurry. All right so this is what I'm
-
saying. Y'all got to get some strength
-
about yourself. And sick the word on your
-
circumstance. When we start the series on The
-
champ is here, when we talking about Championship, what is it
-
too? Because a lot of people
-
everybody in here know how to lose and not everybody in here,
-
know how to win winning is not passive or accidental, winning
-
you go for it, it's intentional right?
-
It starts as a kid because if you played Sports, you probably
-
played on a basketball team with 30 people and everybody got a
-
shot. You probably never got cut here.
-
I've been cut before every kid. If they're trash, should get cut
-
and if your kid get cut, stop lying to your kid and don't be
-
the parent asking the coach. Why my kid ain't playing?
-
Know, if you want your kids to get some playing time, start
-
working on their skills. Because that bleeds into life
-
and it bleeds into your Christianity.
-
Victory came from the Lord's. Not the devil.
-
The devil is the loser. Death is the loser.
-
So when you, when you, when you are raised in a certain culture,
-
you take it into the kingdom and it doesn't work for you.
-
So you settle for a passive religious experiences and you
-
come to a place like this, where we like, yeah, like a winning
-
team fans do. I'm from California.
-
So and I'm from Oakland California, so I've experienced
-
championships, Golden State, Warriors Oakland, A's 49ers
-
Raider, we won a few, we won a few so understand that
-
championships impact the region The economy increases when
-
winning teams are in it. Let me sit down for a second
-
because y'all slow this morning. Okay.
-
So when our team is winning we play longer than any City and
-
then when we're in playoffs and Championship all the media comes
-
to where the last two teams are playing.
-
I'm coming all the media. All over the world comes to
-
where the championship game is and you get all those people
-
coming in, hotels are hotel, and they don't just sell out, but
-
they get a right to increase, the prices Champions, bring
-
value wherever they go. Come on, man.
-
And that's why when we start this series, I am going to have
-
a section where we call it trash.
-
Talk, we need more Christians. Know how to trash talk.
-
You too quiet, you too quiet. You just let the player go you
-
let the devil dribble pass. You you'll let the devil and his
-
demons run all over you and you just like only go right ahead
-
know you better learn how to trash talk.
-
You better learn how to remind yourself and the devil who you
-
are, who got your back. That's what Elijah said.
-
You please open the eyes of my servant, show him there's more
-
for us than there are against us trash talk.
-
We just give that to the world, it's just like, no Jesus with
-
Jesus, always Trash Talk think of some of the things he said,
-
prove vipers. What?
-
That's the whitewashed old. Oh, that's what's up, doesn't
-
like Michael. Jordan was saying that's what
-
Ochocinco was saying. That's what trash-talking
-
athletes would say. And you know what?
-
When he was talking trash, he wasn't always talking to the
-
opposing team. He was talking to his teammates
-
because they was too soft. That was accountability on the
-
team, stop running from accountability, stop running
-
from people that challenge you and call you hire.
-
You cannot be on a championship team.
-
If there's no Aura in the locker room that we all call each
-
other. Higher.
-
You can't be a championship team If You Don't Know Your Role.
-
Stop going after other people's roles.
-
That's not how Championship on a championship team.
-
Somebody giving up shots, Somebody taking a pay cut.
-
Somebody sacrificing something. I'm celebrating my weaknesses
-
and the celebrating your weekend when you celebrate praise is a
-
form of trash talk. It's a weapon, it's trash talk.
-
When you praise God, that's, that's kind of what he says.
-
He says, enter into his gates with praise.
-
Why? Because there's Gates, right.
-
There's there's, there's an opposer.
-
There's there, there's things in the way of getting to the throne
-
room and you can't just want intimacy.
-
Without praise to enter in. Let me know who he is, but I'm
-
not just letting God know who he is.
-
He know who he is. I'm reminding myself.
-
But I'm also putting a hell on notice that I know who he is.
-
And no thought, no doubt, no lie that you planted in my head in
-
my bloodline, will I pay attention to?
-
When I praise is a form of ignoring the enemy and that's
-
why some of you shouldn't sit here with your mouth closed.
-
Because you can't ignore by thinking sometime, you gotta
-
tell you. Body what's happening?
-
And when you use your voice and you you you exalt and you push
-
forth, energy, things shift Forget the kingdom of God, go to
-
a ball game, the energy in a winning house.
-
Why do people go to ball games, their entertainment?
-
You want to get away from the things of the world.
-
So you go to a game and you go to a good game, let me help you.
-
Why do losing teams stadiums? Stay in pee.
-
Right? And some of us act like we ain't
-
got nothing to cheer for But wherever there is a championship
-
team. Right, let me help you your city
-
doesn't need the Canucks. To win a championship.
-
They don't need BC Lions to win a championship.
-
We don't need an NBA team here. What we need is a church that is
-
full of Life. Full of Celebration that don't
-
mind a little Trash Talk that don't mind going in the
-
marketplace and owning your little bit of Swag and, and your
-
Until It Go in Whole Foods, go go, wherever you go to Versace,
-
you go, wherever you, go take the trophy with you.
-
And walking with our head down and all that man.
-
Stop making excuses. Championship teams, do what they
-
got to do to get in shape to win.
-
It's all not to feed it. I'm not defeated by my weakness,
-
but I'm delighted. Because it's an opportunity for
-
me to know, God for God to take care of his son.
-
Let me let me let me help you out.
-
Let me alone me. Oh yeah I'm not gonna lie.
-
I really don't like being sick. But the part I like about being
-
sick is like it taken care of It's like, almost it's like you,
-
you praying to get well. But this soon as you get, well,
-
you like dang, like I gotta go get my own food now, Ain't
-
nobody calling like Pastor. You okay, I'm praying for you.
-
I'm declaring over your life that you were healed from the
-
crown of your head, to the sole GOP.
-
Why you weren't calling me before?
-
Right. This is what he's saying when
-
I'm sick. It gives God an opportunity to
-
take care of me. in a way that doesn't pull on him because I
-
don't need him the same way when I'm well, it's like we celebrate
-
when God and trust us with blessing.
-
But the highest form of blessing.
-
Is he trust you with trouble? And so, what he's saying, is, I
-
learned not to despise trouble because if he's allowed trouble,
-
it must mean that he's honoring me with his strength.
-
And never in life, will I ever have an opportunity to need this
-
verse? Once I die.
-
So the blessing is that this the celebration went on week counts
-
more than when I'm not. And we'll all give a thank
-
offering when it's all good when you get promotion.
-
But boy, let me it would help. Love quest, get through the
-
pandemic is we are appraising house and when your house a
-
celebration, you don't need the doors open.
-
You just need a place to celebrate.
-
Like, I could not could imagine being a church shutting down.
-
We followed the rules. To the teeth, but for the
-
newcomers middle, lord gave us. That Revelation is the church
-
needs to learn how, you know, in football, when the quarterback
-
skillful quarterback. He only has a little bit of room
-
so he'll throw it out of bounds. But in reach, So we read the
-
laws. To understand our boundaries.
-
But anywhere what God Said is, no, I need you to read and I
-
need you to stretch and so when we did certain things you can
-
have a stream T, remember the stream team.
-
Some of y'all Came To Love quest over the stream team.
-
So we allowed some people to come by way of invite to our
-
stream. Team, everybody was on our
-
stream team, right? Because you can have a stream
-
team. So when people came and RSVP you
-
wash and chairs, you all know what We had all kinds of teams.
-
We have to sanitize ation team. We had we had to set up team and
-
a set of Team, don't set up. And then go home, they got to be
-
a part of the what breakdown team?
-
Amen. Right?
-
What was we doing? We we had we were still in
-
bounds but we was right. That's good job.
-
I still would have failed or what's that?
-
What's that will get email me. All right?
-
All right. hey man, that felt like one of them, krump moves
-

-
He said if you give or so grudgingly you reap grudgingly.
-
When's the last time complaining about you sick, made you.
-
Well, You see how you sold your weakness grudgingly, and all you
-
did was get sicker Chaka Khan. There we go.

-

-

-

-

-
weak, Joy will come back and make you well.
-
This is groundbreaking right here.
-
Weakness is not a limitation. In absence of your strength,
-
doesn't mean an absence of his glory, that's why the thief is
-
mad. He didn't steal your wake up.
-
The thief is Maddie didn't steal, or he could not stop.
-
Yo, get up. And so I need y'all to help me
-
rub it in his face and let them hear.
-
Yo speak up. Come on, give us some praise.
-
Come on, speak up. We love you, lord.
-
The devil is defeated Yes, sir. Clap.
-
Your hands unto the Lord? Clap.
-
Your hands unto the Lord. Yeah.
-
Yes, I am victorious. The devil is under my feet.
-
Yeah. Yes.
-
Yeah, the thief is mad. He didn't steal your wake up.
-
Remember what he said. He'll is he'll-he'll.
-
Got a reason to be upset that I woke up, but I can't just wake
-
up. You know, the this generation
-
say. Oh I woke you can still be woken
-
the hospital. You got to go from woke to what
-
get up and you got to go from get up to what?
-
Speak up? You gotta use your mom's showing
-
up. The church ain't never brought
-
nobody to Victory and less. Came in agreement with what the
-
church brought them. Thief is mad.
-
He didn't steal my wake up. He mad.
-
He couldn't. Stop my get up.
-
So I'm going to rub it in his face and let him hear my speak
-
up. You better start speaking up.
-
Trash talk that joker. He know. see, I got a feeling
-
this, some people in here, if you play, you know, Sports you
-
would you feel bad beating someone
-
But I also know the thief is furious, you and death broke up.
-
He should look at the fact you're now aware of your back up
-
and he's confused about your decision to put lack up.
-
We are stepping into the land of more than e-enough.
-
For some people some people may not understand maybe you still
-
want to date death and sickness. That's on you go.
-
Right ahead. Go right ahead but but he mad
-
that I broke up like 2007 I broke up with death and defeat
-
and sickness. I broke up.
-
You gotta break up. You can't wait for our use of
-
anybody in here that be waiting for the person to break up with
-
them. Let me help you.
-
Death is never going to leave. You alone sickness will never
-
leave your body alone until You learn how to break up with it.
-
And the way you break up with it, is you do not associate
-
yourself with it and just because I don't associate myself
-
with something that is a Earthly reality does.
-
Not mean, I'm ignoring what I'm going through what I'm saying is
-
is just like whoever created the airplane.
-
They didn't allow the law of gravity to stop them from doing
-
something that will absolutely transform the world.
-
The law of gratitude gravity was defied.
-
So What I'm telling you the same way the law of gravity was
-
defied. Then also the law of sickness
-
and death can be defied. But you gotta what?
-
Push back. You gotta break up with what
-
other people think. I can't imagine what it took
-
for. Noah.
-
Can't imagine what it took to create airplanes.
-
It took some failure. It took some frustration.
-
It took people not wanting to invest in this crazy idea.
-
But look at us now. Flying all over the world in the
-
air for 15 hours. What kind of if it wasn't for
-
snacks and TV and a comfortable chair, I freaked out Really
-
thinking about I'm in the air and there's nothing we can do
-
about it if this plane goes down, except pray. so, if you're
-
willing to put your life in an airplane, How are you not
-
willing to talk trash and oppose whatever you're going through?
-
You ignore the law of gravity. When you get in the airplane and
-
you got the nerve to spend $2000, to go to some other
-
country and then spend money on hotels, B, new shades, get
-
sandals. You see how you prepare to do
-
crazy? What are you prepared?
-
You not thinking that you might not make it back.
-
You told your job, you'll be back.
-
You took vacation time, which means you plan, when your
-
vacation over to come back to what work, see what faith is?
-
You planned it, you spend money, you save for it, you know what
-
we do? And when we praise, we're saving
-
for a rainy day. T.i., put praise up.
-
So when sickness come, I got reason to pull praise down.
-
I got reason to pull Heaven down because I invest.
-
I'm not just a worshipper, when it's all good.
-
I'm going to worship her all the time.
-
God is good. What?
-
All the time all the time. God is good.
-
So is anybody ready to break up? Some of y'all came in, sitting
-
you sitting with sickness. Oh, the ushers didn't
-
seasickness with you but you got them.

-
The thief has only one thing in mind.
-
He wants to steal, Slaughter and Destroy.
-
We know his motive. A lot of us will focus on the
-
first part, but I'm like, let's just chop that part out and
-
focus on the second part. But my savior, my God, my Lord,
-
my master. My Redeemer has come to give me
-
and you everything, I say everything, everything,
-
everything. Now, let me make it clear.
-
It's not oh, man chins and although, okay, that's cool.
-
Well, let's start with Joe, Let's start with love.
-
Let's start with peace. Let's start with family.
-
Let's start with healthy relationships, everything in
-
Abundance. Here's here's the cool part more
-
than you can expect. Life in its fullness until you
-
what overflow say overflow. Oh Jesus, the TPT says the thief
-
or the am. The am PC, says, the thief comes
-
only in order to steal and kill and destroy.
-
I came that they may have and enjoy.
-
You can't enjoy it. If you ain't have it.
-
Say I got joy. And here's the thing.
-
In Jesus Christ, you do have joy.
-
When are you enjoying it? You can have a nice house and
-
not enjoy it just because you're not enjoying Joy.
-
Don't mean you don't have joy just because you don't feel
-
joyful. Don't mean Joy is not there.
-
He said I came that they may have Right?
-
He came. He died and he rose.
-
There's nothing else you need for Joy but to believe this is
-
not a paycheck Joy. It's not a spouse Joy.
-
This is not a sex Joy, this is not, this is not a mansion Joy.
-
This is has nothing to do with receiving anything but Jesus.
-
What he's saying? I'm more than enough so you can
-
go to some continents and what and you wondering why they
-
dancing. And they living with holes in
-
the roof with 10 children, they only have rice to eat, but you
-
wonder why they got joy and you live in downtown in a penthouse
-
complaining and you wonder why you go to some continents and
-
they just went with no shoes. Right.
-
You see kids some of the dopest dances, them little kids come
-
for Africa because like look and they just going across where
-
they get that Joy from know where they get that Joy from,
-
where does the kids get the Joy from, because the kid's gonna
-
reflect, however, the parents is acting if you raise your kids to
-
depend on the world and education and go out there and
-
just work hard working hard, but tail, teach you.
-
Kids. The other part.
-
Rest hard to and I say play hard.
-
I'll say it rest hard, soul rest.
-
So you just gave your kids a good work, their work ethic But
-
what about their stress levels? What about they fight with the
-
Enemy? Don't pat yourself on the back
-
because you gave your kids. A good work that I could but you
-
left them depressed or you left them.
-
You know I'm saying like it's good, they work hard, but not if
-
you leave them slaves, Enjoy life and have it in abundance to
-
the fool till it overflows till it overflows hashtag.
-
No need for more hashtag. Got to be a blessing, hashtag
-
groundbreaking blessing, hashtag bloodline shifting life.
-
The Lord is trying to do away every generation coming out of
-
you and after you should do better than you and not have to
-
fight Wars, you had to fight, right, get addiction out of your
-
bloodline. I do not drink because I'm gonna
-
go to hell if I drink. I don't not drink because maybe
-
I can sip but if I keep the door open to drinking my Kids or my
-
grandkids, my sip may turn into an addiction so I'm closing the
-
door. And my pleasure is not worth
-
their bondage. We make it all about going to
-
hell. No carry your cross.
-
You can party all you want to but what doors are you leaving?
-
Open for your children. It's a spiritual thing.
-
You think you're hiding you're not hiding.
-
The devil knows what you're doing.
-
Therefore you give him legal right to afflict your bloodline
-
and you might got enough strength to just sip every now
-
and then. He like cool.
-
I'll just wait till you dead. Cool.
-
I wait till you, your kids, get out your house.
-
You have given me the keys to your children.
-
So now, they have to, they have to fight, don't mean, they're
-
defeated, but there's a battle that they should not have to
-
fight and jesus carried the cross.
-
So you don't have to pay for your sins.
-
So you should carry your Bloodlines cross so that your
-
children don't have to pay for yours.
-
The enemies defeated but what he can do is torment Generations.
-
Banking on someone will walk away from Jesus.
-
Not holier than thou or no. No, I can go drink a glass of
-
wine right now. And go smooth to heaven.
-
Smooth move to heaven with stars in my helmet because I'm a soul
-
winner. Go to heaven and the Lord like,
-
what's up? Glass of wine.

You little Merlot little Age solving home blown.
-
You're not going to hell. Point is, it's someone may
-
experience hell because you keeping doors open.
-
You real love is sacrificial. It's not always beneficial for
-
you. But it is sacrificial for the
-
Next Generation. It is sacrificial for your
-
neighbor. It is sacrificial for your
-
coworker, right? How many people in your life?
-
You're giving permission to do something.
-
You got control, and you got a church home, and you got pastors
-
and you got support, but your friend that you partying with,
-

-
You just having fun with them and they going home, ready, kill
-

-
Not putting on Joy another day. I'm not putting off celebrating
-
another day. That was one thing.
-
In our leadership meeting the other day is we will be commit.
-
We will be a culture committed to consistent celebration.
-
I'm not waiting for a reason to celebrate.
-
I woke up. That's a reason to celebrate
-
every day. I wake up, I should be
-
celebrating. Not waiting for a raise.
-
I'm not waiting for my team. No.
-
And I'm not waiting for you to approve me or like me.
-
I am celebrating because my God is good.
-
I'm looking for reasons to celebrate.
-
Peaches three never doubt God's Mighty power to working.
-
You never doubt, God's Mighty power to working.
-
You never doubt, God's Mighty power to working you.
-
And accomplish all this, he will achieve infinitely more than
-
your greatest request. You you most unbelievable dream.
-
Your most unbelievable dream and he will exceed your wildest
-
imagination. He will outdo them.
-
Also, he won't only, he won't only do, but then he will outdo,
-
man. He will outdo.
-
But I want you to not forget the part where he says his power
-
working in you. That's why I got a trash talk
-
because I'm releasing the power that's working in me.
-
Right? He will outdo them all for his
-
miraculous listen. He cannot do the exceeding
-
abundantly without your participation.
-
You can't sit on a God. Help my city.
-
You like cool? I'm ready.
-
Go ahead, go. Go ahead, but that for some of
-
y'all don't need you to pray, know more about that thing.
-
You've been praying, he not gonna give you another sign.
-
Why y'all say, like, I've seen a few people looking around, that
-
means that word for you, he ain't giving you another sign.
-
The fact that I just told you can't give you another sign is a
-
sign. So take that sign.
-
It's your last time. I'm trying to tell you right
-
now. I'm trying to tell you.
-
He trying to get some stuff out of you, then he can work with
-
you, trying to get some stuff out of you and then, he can work
-
with you when I'm releasing the word of God in the atmosphere.
-
I have just now given the Holy Spirit the legal right to work
-
with me and make things happen. How do I know that the Bible
-
says where it tells me about the the, the armor of God?
-
The sword of the spirit. Okay, if I'm a soldier and I
-
even like that's Pastor tea sword.
-
Right now, that's past 30 sword. Right?
-
What would I do? What would you think I do with
-
my sword? Huh?
-
Huh, use it. Cut some things up.
-
So if I'm partnering with the Holy Spirit, And the word of God
-
is the sword of the spirit, then it tells me that the Holy Spirit
-
Works through the word. So if I have to put my whole
-
armor on then I got to get the word in me but not to stay in
-
me. I got to get it out of me
-
because you're Joe Joshua says do not let these words depart
-
from your mouth meaning don't ever.
-
Stop speaking the word the Bible says in Psalm 102 that the
-
angels hearken to the word of God. so, How can I experience
-
Victory? God's Victory.
-
Not every two week. Victory.
-
Not paycheck victory. Not the intended, not
-
graduation, not wedding day. I'm talking about every day, no
-
matter what happens, Victory is because every day, I'm keeping
-
that word in my mouth, I'm keeping celebration in my life.
-
I will tell you again. Jesus is not Northern American.
-
Sorry, you don't be chilling like some of y'all.
-
When you really understand geographically where Jesus is
-
from, first of all, you know, he don't look like a lot of your
-
pictures. Hey man, Helo closer to monitor
-
complexion a little closer to my complexion.
-
Just saying, okay. Just saying.
-
You go to the east just for a month to see it.
-
See how your house? What color you come back?
-
Okay, just saying just saying but what I do know about where
-
he is from they know how to celebrate Wait a minute, wait a
-
minute. I read in the Bible over and
-
over God, demanded them to celebrate and I'm not telling my
-
old clap your hands. I'm talking about the feasts.
-
Come out Jubilee. I'm talking about how they
-
celebrated the Feast of Tabernacles like, like, like I
-
would not adopt Canadian way of worships.
-
If it means you sit on your tail, Don't Clap.
-
Your Hands. Have a timid approach to God, I
-
would not do that. That's not biblical
-
participation. And I wouldn't just go to a
-
worship night to be free to express myself.
-
I would never sit in a church where I couldn't express my joy.
-
What the heck? No, I'm not going to can't be
-
constipated for two hours. That's painful man.
-
You do you need to love yourself enough, to release a praise.
-
Yeah so for his miraculous power constantly energizes you what
-
did the energy energy? Energy?
-
Energy energy right is got his his power energize us so his
-
presence on my life energizes me, I can't sit still, that's
-
why I could have been asleep on the way here in the car, but
-
when I get up here when I get on my assignment man I just can't
-
keep it to myself. Sorry.
-
He's just like you could be tired, all you want to Get home.
-
Some of y'all see y'all dog? You light up your dog.
-
Come up with his little tail, shaking all over you and you and
-
you and you and you just light up.
-
Licking your face. What?
-
Praise break with your dog, but not at church.
-
Wow. Wow.
-
Wow! Let me put my purse down there.
-
Even my first are we gonna go on a walk?
-
Some of y'all led by your dog more than the spirit.
-
Oh, you gotta poop. Let me on, locate going here,
-
let me get poop. Let me poop.
-
Go ahead poop. And then this what they do and
-
you get that bag of you. Pick his poop up, your dog.
-
Oh my God, help us Lord, we got our priorities wrong.
-
Now we offer up to God all the Glorious, praise that rises from
-
every Church in every generation through Jesus Christ and all
-
that will yet be manifest through time.
-
This is right after he promises exceeding abundantly above.
-
So then he says we offer up to God all glorious praise.
-
That rises from what, every Church in every generation,
-
there should be the trait of praise.
-
Don't You Worry Bout a Thing. Don't you worry about it.
-
Y'all know the song. All right, all right.
-
We won't worry about it. Hey, we won't worry but we won't
-
worry about a thing. Say we won't worry about it day.
-
One last time we won't worry about a thing.
-
We were worried about her. We won't worry about a thing.
-
All right, cool, cool. Cool.
-
Hey man. See, you would Praise Him
-
louder. If you knew we didn't plan that
-
that was just in this fair. You know I'm saying.
-
Praise break all the time. We went from, we going to praise
-
and but we're not going to worry about a thing where you don't
-
don't take for like thing. We won't worry about things.
-
I say, most of you, you're worried comes from thanks.
-
Thanks. We've made goals that big ass in
-
hose hiding this from Whole. I think it's time to break.
-
The mold is old. Shaka Zulu.
-
That was not a quote from Billy Graham or Shakespeare.
-
And unlike, that was from me right there with you.
-
We've made goals that dig us in holes hiding us from Whole some
-
of your goals. Hide you from hole.
-
I'ma go over here and do this and gods like but that's not
-
where hole is and you take a paycheck over going where hole
-
is? He is like I will take let this
-
is what championship teams people will pay.
-
Take pay cuts to win because they gonna make that money up
-
after they got the gold. Take an endorsement deals.
-
They, they now go get on speaking engagements.
-
Now they're getting paid just for appearances.
-
Hey, come to sit in the VIP for one hour just show up.
-
So we can tell the public that Draymond Green going to be here.
-
And then we're going to make everybody pay triple the price.
-
And the only reason that they could charge that and you can
-
get 100,000, some people get millions of dollars just for
-
showing up for an hour. But we want the bag now.
-
We want to only hang around the popular.
-
We don't want to spend that season arrest.
-
So, we've been hidden. Buy some of our goals.
-
And I would say it's time to break the mold.
-
Why? Because it sold that way, that
-
pattern of life is its old man. Is it?
-
So coming to church and just happy with the service being
-
inspired taking notes and don't live the word of God?
-
Church often is old get somewhere.
-
Get routed. Get planet, right?
-
Don't be afraid of being planted.
-
Don't be afraid of corn into your local church.
-
You're not just porn into your local church.
-
You're born into your city. The region everybody in this
-
region is specially. Immediate is going to be
-
impacted by this church and other churches.
-
But for sure where we are, we will leave a footprint for the
-
rest of history in this community.
-
Matthew 6, don't keep hoarding for yourselves Earthly,
-
Treasures that can be stolen by thieves material wealth
-
eventually. Rust decays and loses, its value
-
instead stockpile. Heavenly Treasures.
-
What her Heavenly Treasures Souls?
-
Bring joy to people. Bring peace to people.
-
Bring Clarity to people. Bring Salvation that people
-
bring strength to people, bring Unity to Brokenness bring
-
reconciliation. To wave to Wayward.
-
Souls to backsliders. Bring healing!
-
Bring your testimony. Heavenly Treasures.
-
This is what I'm doing right now.
-
I've given up my life. And my wife and I have left
-
behind guaranteed. to build something that will outlive us
-
our kids, our grandkids and yours the like But when we show
-
up to heaven, we won't be bankrupt.
-
We got rewards waiting for us. And we're not done.
-
But the transformation that has come through some of your lives
-
through being a part of this community, the devil can't steal
-
that from us. Right?
-
I can give you a jacket but guess what?
-
You probably end up giving that jacket to somebody else.
-
And if I give you a jacket during the fast, you might not
-
be able to fit that. After we get off the fast for
-
yourselves, that cannot be stolen and will never rust Decay
-
or lose their value for. Your heart, will always pursue
-
what you esteem as your treasure.
-
And as I told this, We need to redirect the desires and
-
affections of our heart. God didn't say, it's not okay,
-
to want, nice things. But you have to be careful where
-
you direct your desire and your affection because wherever your
-
affection and your desire is what you esteem.
-
You will always pursue what you esteem as treasure.
-
What do you deem as important? Let me help you today, you can
-
start just putting off some things that you've made
-
important over the last few months, last few years, they're
-
not important anymore. Sorry, but that relationship
-
does not bring you life. Purge it, that way of thinking
-
that place, all right. The yoga membership is not gonna
-
bring your soul healing. Whoever I'm talking.
-
Did nothing wrong. You do yoga, do your thing.
-
But yoga can't be your religion. It can't be your faith.
-
It's not connected to the source.
-
It's connected to a source, but it does not have eternal value
-
to it. It's temporary.
-
The Little Rock. You Got swinging in your window.
-
They don't have hope in it. That's The Medallion.
-
Your favorite pillow? Your dream catcher. all these
-
things being vegan, the implant-- base juicing, All
-
those things are beneficial. But you act like your life is so
-
much better. And you hold it up.
-
Would you still broken with your little thin self?
-
You still broken with your, with your, in shape said, with all
-
the muscles, your soul is still. Starving.
-
Not saying do not like God man want to go to Bali all those
-
dreams. We have keep um like let's go
-
but I'm not waking up every day. Going to work for vacation.
-
There's an internal vacation that you can live in every day.
-
It's an oasis. Its peace.
-
Its joyous man, I love my life. No matter where you at, you can
-
love your life. When I grew up in the hood, I
-
didn't really know. It was Hood.
-
We enjoy playing hope with the Carnation, the milk crate on the
-
telephone pole, and we was meant that was basketball.
-
We enjoyed playing football in the street and the telephone
-
poles was the end zone. That was football, is it?
-
You don't powder, milk cereal. Okay, I eat it.
-
Just sprinkle it Pour some water on that.
-
Captain Crunch was still Captain Crunch.
-
You sharing bedrooms with your siblings, growing up as a kid.
-
You don't you? Not even aware that that's lack
-
because you and your siblings playing everyday when you were
-
little, you enjoy life without all the stuff.
-
And that's why it says come into the kingdom.
-
As a child, you can't come into His Arms with stress.
-
What if your kids laid in your arms stressed out?
-
Not trusting your embrace. Always anxious always
-
complaining. I hated it when my kids complain
-
all the time. Right.
-
Wait a minute. We just hate what you talk
-
about. Is there something else?
-
It's like you get that. Homeless person, some change and
-
they like, what's this? What you was asking for?
-
Give my money back. You are bad ground.
-
You are bad soil right now. This is why I tell you to never
-
be worried about your life. For all that you need will be
-
provided. Such as food water clothing,
-
everything. Your body needs isn't there more
-
to life than a meal? Isn't your body more than
-
clothing like I said. Like black and blue.
-
I always bring a black and blue and because I keep bringing it
-
up, I'm going tomorrow. What?
-
Man, I have this manners nights. We should do, man.
-
I'm so sick and tired of a. I'm going to blow up every A and
-
W on the way home. And W the only thing open by the
-
time it's time to go home. I'm so tired of Uncle burgers
-
and Auntie Burgers and Fries and all that.
-
I'm so tired of that stuff. But I'm just saying growing up,
-
McDonald's had to work. That little 99-cent menu, we
-
have to live off of and even in college you may have to live off
-
of that but you don't go to bed start.
-
That's what God's promises. This is what we got to.
-
I don't even know if we're gonna get to it this morning but but
-
most of what stresses us out is not needs its once and all God
-
is saying, is do not let once stress you out.
-
Because you're going to be mad at him because he's not
-
promising. You once the where he promises,
-
you once is where you desire him and he'll give you the desires
-
of your heart. But what he will provide for any
-
person, believer or non-believer is needs.
-
No, no, you bought that house, you overreached?
-
You don't need money to pay that you need to downgrade but you're
-
not humbled enough. You picked that bougie partner.
-
Now you stressed out trying to get make a bunch of money.
-
Not saying you need to break up, but you better get something
-
clear and not allow a relationship to drive you to
-
stress, parents, girlfriends boyfriends.
-
I'm sorry boo-boo. This the budget we eating on
-
Yeah, we witness Burger today. Yeah, I'm telling you real
-
stuff. That's when that's when the
-
Moody yet. Did he say that?
-
Yes, that's when the booty is, not what it's all about.
-
No more. Yeah, yeah.
-
But I'm gonna see I'm curious booty than got y'all.
-
In some places you banging on the door, trying to get out,
-
What do we say, curves? Do what?
-
Swerve? It won't always be like that.
-
So you better fall in love with that half a cheeseburger before
-
you fall in. Love with them, you know I'm
-
saying that double cheeseburger. Amen, amen.
-
Alright alright, we gotta find a place to close Focus.
-
Jesus Polk is Jesus. Chibi.
-
Is it your body more than clothing?
-
Man, I like clothes, I love fashion.
-
What I look like walking around here.
-
Like, Lord doesn't know. He just won't either wearing
-
sweatpants ever. Get a haircut.
-
Just would be like trash This is all about Jesus.
-
It's not about hygiene, it's about Jesus.
-
No, it's about Jesus said it's about hygiene.
-
Okay? Right, double down.
-
Look at your neighbors. Hey man, don't look.
-
Don't look at your neighbor. So then forsake your worries.
-
Why would you say what will I eat?
-
What will we drink? Or what will we wear?
-
But that is what the unbelievers chase.
-
Doesn't your heavenly father already know the things your
-
body requires. See, I could come to church
-
every Sunday without needing a breakthrough because I know he
-
knows my needs, you ready? He even knows what you need
-
that. You don't know you need.
-
So above all constantly seek God's kingdom and his
-
righteousness. Say then all these less
-
important things. Wait a minute.
-
Your God says, the stuff you tripping on is, the least
-
important thing. He's tripping on Wow.
-
So you bombarding heaven with stuff, God is like, what you
-
say? What you did what?
-
You worried about that. These least important things
-
will be given to you abundantly. So it sounds like he has things
-
on his mind for you. Because he knows you're in a
-
world where things Witness Ah, oh, did I just give you a motive
-
for wanting things? I want abundance, so that I can
-
help people and it's not the abundance that so witness.
-
It's, the being able to help people, that's a witness.
-
It's being able to be a lender and not a borrower.
-
ER, it's being able to bless of mom blessed.
-
Dad bless a family is being able to hire people that the world
-
won't hire and give people a chance.
-
There's a reason for abundance, God wants to bless you but all
-
he said, Asking you to do is switch your motives up.
-
You don't work for a living, you work for a given.
-
So refuse to worry about tomorrow, but deal with each
-
challenge, that comes your way, one day at a time tomorrow,
-
we'll take care of himself. And if you wake up tomorrow and
-
there's nothing to worry about, don't pull tomorrow's worries
-
into today. Let tomorrow's worries.
-
Wait for you tomorrow till tomorrow I see it in.
-
You said I'm saying, sometime you get you off work, your bills
-
are paid. Maybe one of them, not you got
-
food in the fridge. And you just sitting there
-
making yourself, worried about something.
-
Now you're stressed out because you off work.
-
Oh, I feel lazy. I got to be doing something
-
right. What we just worry so much and
-
then we get on Instagram like, wow, they look like they having
-
fun today. Let me get one of them.
-
You see another people dating you like?
-
Oh my God, like God come through for me.
-
Just like that, come through for me, Jesus.
-
Right, declare. Same guy right now is ain't got
-
back. Then if you did it for them, you
-
can do it for me. I read these couple slides and
-
we go home. True poverty is not having your
-
basic needs met. You ain't poor cuz you can't eat
-
out at a certain place. Stop it.
-
McDonald's is food. Some of it on the menu and not
-
but some of it is get the salad, right?
-
A salad is good like Last Resort, you know I'm saying?
-
And don't be the person like, oh my kids.
-
Just wanted McDonald's know, you digging in a on that as that bag
-
past you in the drive, through you.
-
You ready, not having your needs met is evil.
-
Restlessness due to not having what I want is recklessness and
-
negligence. Being Restless over, a lack of
-
wants is reckless. It's not stewarding your piece
-
being Restless over. What?
-
I not having what I want. And here's the question.
-
Are you losing sleep over needs or wants?
-
It's coming up there in a second?
-
Be honest. Are you losing sleep?
-
Are you anxious? some folks anxious because they
-
anxious You don't have nothing to be anxious about, you just
-
anxious because you anxious, you anxious because stuffing
-
hurrying up. Start offloading today stuff.
-
You can't control. You can't control your mama.
-
Mom's going to act a fool Pop's. Going to do what he do.
-
Friends go, but you can't control that Here's a couple
-
questions. Who said you need that?
-
This week, here's your homework write a list of needs and wants.
-
And the stuff on the one side, don't let yourself stress over
-
it another day. She kabob.
-
Okay. Yep.
-
We'll stop there. We'll stop right here.
-
Let me give you this. It's great place to stop Man's
-
first sin. You'll love this elder.
-
John did you lure slap me in the head this morning when I was I
-
think you ought to pay attention to this?
-
I'm sure all you guys know this, but I didn't really pay
-
attention. It is, but Man's first sin was
-
not trusting in God's resources and provision.
-
He said don't eat from that tree.
-
Everything was good. And we just had to have that one
-
surgery. We just had to eat off that one
-
tree. He's like you can have all of
-
these trees in the garden. Just don't eat off of that one.
-
We fail because we didn't trust God.
-
We fail because of greed, we were not satisfied with all them
-
trees. We just had to eat off the one.
-
He said don't touch and then our eyes was open to the knowledge
-
of Good and Evil. I exposed myself to a world of
-
Temptation. This is what I'm after.
-
True enrichment comes from the blessing of the Lord with rest
-
and contentment in knowing that, it all comes from him.
-
The blessing of the Lord makes rich, and he adds no sorrow with
-
it. Neither the strolling increase
-
it. I want the blessing more than I
-
want blessings and it is a difference.
-
This is the blessing of the Lord is an empowerment.
-
It is favor on your life. It's what Joseph had in a pit as
-
a slave with only the Garment on his back.
-
The blessing of the Lord was on him and trust me, when the
-
blessing is on, you, people will see it.
-
There's some stuff that you and I will never have to work for
-
I'll speak for myself. There's some stuff that I desire
-
that I will never have to work for because I am not ashamed to
-
wear the blessing. Everything that you desire,
-
doesn't mean you have to work for it.
-
So we must repent from the striving life and enlist
-
ourselves into the thriving life of Jesus Christ.
-
Which he says that we should walk in.
-
And Livin the good life, that was pre-arranged and made ready
-
for us to live. The good life was already
-
prepared for you. What you stressing, I didn't say
-
stress won't be at the door. I didn't say stress won't be
-
around you. I wish I didn't say you will not
-
feel stress. What I'm telling you is you do
-
not let stress dictate your actions.
-
So as Jesus says repent change your inner self change your old
-
way of thinking regret past sins.
-
Leave your life in a way. That proves repentance y'all
-
think that doing drugs and having sex and lust in is sin,
-
not trusting God is sin. So you can look at the sex
-
trafficking you can look at all the things in your eyes that you
-
think saying is but not trusting God is as big as Sin.
-
So see God's purpose for your life.
-
For the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand and simply what he's
-
telling you is that John 10:10 life is at hand so turn and this
-
is what I will say entering God's.
-
Rest is a fruit of repentance. One of my top guns is rest and
-
lastly the devil can't stand a person with rhythm toys and Pace
-
in the grace of God. God flows in a rhythm and
-
worries. Throws us off rhythm.
-
I don't know about you, but it's hard dancing with somebody
-
that's all beat. Especially a slow dance.
-
And God walking with the Lord, as a rhythm.
-
It's a rhythm. Fighting this good fight of
-
Faith. It's a rhythm.
-
And you need poet is what does that mean?
-
When pressure comes you still, you don't lose it.
-
You can still think straight, you're consistent Under
-
Pressure. Your character don't change
-
Under Pressure Love, Don't Change.
-
Under Pressure piece, may be shaken but it's not taken under
-
pressure. Lift your hands Right Where You
-
Are. Worship team.
-
Just lift your hands, Right Where You Are. and just take the
-
next couple minutes, you're just going to Man, the Lord wants you
-
to push some things down today. What are you worried about that?
-
You cannot control turn it in release it What's wants versus
-
needs be honest. And there's some stuff that I
-
want, I'll get myself worked up and I'm like, man, it is ain't
-
time. It's not time to have that or by
-
that it don't mean. You got to take it off your wish
-
list, it just means you got a wave put it on your waitlist.
-
Right. You'll get on the waiting list
-
for your favorite restaurant. Thank you, Jesus.
-
What you gonna do is you're gonna trade your Sorrows, you're
-
going to trade your stress. You gonna trade that negativity
-
today for joy? Going to trade that morning for
-
dancing. Those data part of Love quest.
-
You've been here. These next three months is theme
-
more than enough. We are going to trust God.
-
We're going to purge. We're going to make quick
-
decisive decisions and not allow ourselves to just go days.
-
Just being indecisive. We're going to put
-
indecisiveness down. We're going to put
-
indecisiveness down for the next 3 months.
-
We're going to allow God to bring in supernaturally.
-
Our once, I'm going to focus on our knees.
-
Going to focus on love. You need your soul.
-
Needs Agape, your soul needs peace, your soul.
-
Needs healthy relationships, go to work.
-
Do what you do, but this next three months is not the three
-
months of extra. Rest from overdoing it, rest
-
from overthinking some stuff you're thinking about.
-
Do you need to, is it adding value to your life?
-
As our team is walking around handing out communion today, as
-
we come to a close. We're going to take communion
-
and remember our Lord and savior.
-
We going to get out of here. Hey, some of you are in
-
relationships. That you cannot get out of.
-
Can I help you? Have a conversation with your
-
spouse. Have a conversation with your
-
family members and just say hey Kim.
-
And if everyone can listen as they're getting their communion,
-
this is very important. Maybe you have a conversation
-
this week with someone Because there's some things you're not
-
stressing over. But by way of relationship,
-
they're bringing stress in it. So maybe this week, you going to
-
have a conversation and say babe mom dad sister brother look.
-
And they may not be able to see the long-term picture, just say,
-
man for the next few couple months.
-
We not going to stress over that.
-
For the next few months, we not going to make those decisions.
-
You have a right? You have a right to stand for
-
your peace. Amen.
-
Can I free you horse second. You have a right to not
-
tolerate, folks bringing stress in your life.
-
That's specially unnecessary. You have a right to shut down
-
the conversation. If it's turning you away from
-
the goodness of God, if it's turning you away from the word
-
of God, you have a right to say, you know what, I don't want to
-
talk about that. I'll talk about it.
-
If we could kind of switch the narrative, I did say switch the
-
facts. Just switch the narrative.
-
Learn how to take your facts and put them in a different
-
narrative. If it's not The Narrative of the
-
word of God. We don't ignore facts.
-
We just exalt the truth. All right, where you are, just
-
Worship the Lord for being your Redeemer.
-
Lord, we remember, you come on, right?
-
Where you are? We remember you.
-
Lord. You are the Redeemer of our
-
soul. You are the Redeemer of our
-
soul. You are the Redeemer of our
-
soul. Thank you, Jesus.
-
Has anybody even missed? Is everybody, if you've been
-
missed? Can you just lift your hands?
-
Want to make? Sure everyone has what they need
-
for those that are new. Maybe you don't know you like,
-
man, why y'all got goldfish? First of all, you, you know, you
-
grateful for goldfish and not having to eat one of those
-
wafers. Amen.
-
But if we also want to remind people that we are called to be
-
Fishers of Men. I remember the day, I told my
-
wife that she thought it was corny and if you watch him babe,
-
I know you love me. You just looking out for me but
-
it's all good but and then it just kind of dawned.
-
I was just like yeah, we want to be intentional and then that's a
-
God thing that there's multicolored fish.
-
Because we are reminding ourselves that we are called to
-
All Nations, All Nations. And so today we're remembering
-
the work of Jesus Christ. If there was no shed blood,
-
there would be no remission of sin.
-
But one drops, a one drop one, drop saved all of man.
-
Right? It's so today.
-
What we're doing is we're not coming to God's like, oh, please
-
forgive me know, we're acknowledging that.
-
He's our savior, he's Our Redeemer and we need a redeemer.
-
We're confessing that we have sinned and we have fallen short,
-
but in him, we have risen, we are in him.
-
We have Victory. It's nothing poor poverty.
-
False, humility about this. He did not stop at the cross.
-
He got up and praise God. We do not have Have some somber
-
dark Christianity or relationship with Jesus, but the
-
good news is not that he just went to the Cross, but the real
-
good news is what he got up. So I don't have to it says it
-
have to be a down moment. We don't have to sing a song At
-
The Cross at the cross where I first found a lot of course and
-
the burden of my heart rolled away.
-
That's a great him. But there's also we got up And
-
you need to know whatever you're going through.
-
He got up and the blood gave you access.
-
He said, I am the door. What is he a door to the
-
kingdom? So, I am victorious.
-
You are victorious because of the blood of Jesus.
-
And when his body was broken, the cat of nine tails leather
-
straps with glass, on the ends, it in just whip him.
-
But those cats to nine tails dug into his skin and they have to
-
pull it off chunks of skin, chunks of Flesh coming.
-
For your savior real thorns in his head.
-
And then what happens, he still has to go to the cross.
-
It wasn't just physical humiliation, but it was
-
emotional abuse. They teased them, they spit on
-
him. That's that's what we believe
-
and that's what we know. And so when we're remembering
-
him today, we remember a man. He took a beating, he took a
-
sacrifice to not even animals. For you.
-
So we're free from condemnation and when you fall in love with
-
him and you understand what he's done for you, then you don't
-
want to send, you don't wake up every day.
-
Trying not to send you wake up every day trying to seek him
-
first so you can fall in love with him and it was love.
-
He didn't want to go to the Cross but love put them there.
-
And so Lord we just remember you today and we thank you for your
-
sacrifice. Father, we thank you for giving
-
your only begotten son. That we all may have a chance to
-
return home. I thank you.
-
Repeat after me. Say Lord, thank you because of
-
your blood. I am redeemed.
-
Nobody can take that from me. I thank you Jesus for your
-
obedience for Love and because of your shed blood and because
-
of your Resurrection, I have Victory despite the
-
circumstances you may eat. Thank you, Jesus.
-
Thank you. Jesus, just lift your hands
-
right where you are and say, thank you Jesus by his stripes.
-
I am the healed and not the sick.
-
Thank you. Jesus.
-
