Get Down Here!!! // Tim Ross

Welcome to Transformation Church Podcast, where we represent God to the lost and found

for transformation in Christ. We're so glad you're here and wherever you're listening from,

we believe God will transform your life. Do today's message? Anybody ready

for the Word this morning? All right, some of y'all have be like

this search service has already been enough. I'm okay, I'm overstimulated, ready

to go home. Give me forty five minutes. Because I believe that one

thing that we have to do is always worship on the Word. I don't

ever want to sing songs that don't make sense. When I was young,

I used to sing a bunch of songs that I had no idea what it

meant. I love the melody, I love the music everybody got up.

But there were songs that I would sing that had no actual bearing on my

soul. And it wasn't until I got older. Sometimes I'd hear those songs

again and be like, oh shoot, I don't feel no ways tired.

I wasn't tired as a kid. I was energetic. I was bad.

I was. But now I've gotten four kids, I'll be tired. There's

things that I like, I understand so as we release sungans and God gives

us the grace to do it. I'm supposed to encourage your faith around a

message that stems from the music God gave us. And let me be very

clear, God gave us these songs, He let us borrow them. These

weren't ideas that we were coming up with what rhymes with overflow. No,

these were things that God says. This is what I want for my people

to declare when they feel depressed overflow. This is what I want them to

declare when the bank account is negative overflow. This is what I want them

to declare when they were relationships feel empty overflow. Y'all still ain't got it.

This is what I want them to declare when all their friends have left

them because they begin to follow God over. God is saying to his people

that this is a season of oh. And so today for everybody that has

an ear to hear, let him hear, because today I'm going to teach

you how to live in the overflow. Watch this Romans fifteen thirteen. This

is some nasty Bible right here. It says, I pray that God,

the source of hope, will feel you. Everybody say this next word completely

say it like you mean it. I hope that He will fill you completely

with joy and peace. How many people want God to fill you completely with

joy and peace? I mean, something goes bad, joyful, Everybody leave

peaceful. I got a lot joyful. I ain't got nothing peaceful. I

pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy

and peace. Oh there's a because anytime you see a because that means you

gotta do something and look at them, because right here I want him to

fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Point number

one, Trust is the prerequisite to overflow. Most of us really don't trust

God. So we live at a place that don't even feel halfway filled up.

There's no way that we can live in the overflow. Watch this if

we not at least four hear what I just said. Fool comes before overflow,

and most of us live at empty. Did you hear what I just

said? Some of us need to be saying I want to live in the

full, not the overflow yet, because if you could just get full,

it would be a place that you've never felt. But God saying to us

through this scripture that he doesn't just want us to be fooled. He wants

us to live in the what Oh so trusting God is the prerequisite to the

overflow. My question to you today is did you trust God when the flow

is slow? Come on, let's be honest. You get a raise,

get a new car, families clicking in all cylinders. Oh man, I

just trust God. Wow, Oh my God, he's been so good,

so faithful. Ah, just nothing can bring me down. Cause God,

you are wrong my foundation. And then you lose the job, and the

baby mama start tripping on you sideways and this is your kid, and I

promise I will like and they start I don't know what this does, and

and your friends they're no longer there to check on you. And then God

has you in a season of stepping out on something you're good at other things

you ain't even good at this Right, the flow becomes slow, and what

ends up happening in there is we start making stuff up. I'm convinced that

most of our plot problems come from not staying still when God is still.

When He gets still, we get busy and we end up dealing with things

we were never meant to even encounter. Because we like God, I mean,

I thought I was gonna be married by now. Hold on these things.

These things is getting few and fewer, and I'm supposed to have folk

kids. Y'all know what I'm talking about. I need Lord? What is

she doing? Okay, well there's a man. Hello Amazon, Man,

would you like a drink of water? You look so famous out there?

Okay, No, God, I'm gonna just stop right there. What I'm

what I'm saying is God was telling you to be still because He was still.

Point. That's when God is still, be still, and that he's

that takes everybody. Say trust and if you want to live in the overflow,

the prerequisite is trusting. Look at this Roman's fifteen thirteen. It goes

on to say it says, because you trust them, he says, then

you will overflow with confident hope through the power, oh of the Holy Spirit.

Point number two. The Holy Spirit is the facilitator of the overflow.

If you do not take your Christian want beyond God and Jesus, you miss

the power of the Holy Spirit. I can feel the tension right now.

Jesus is all I need. Jesus said, it's better that I go,

because when I leave and go sit at the right hand of the Father and

make intercession for you. Every day, I will send another one. His

name is Holy Spirit, and he will be the comforter. He will be

the one to lead and guide you into all truth. He's your advocate.

When you get in trouble, the Holy Spirit says, ah, shut your

mouth. I'm defending him, and he's If you want to live in the

overflow, you have to embrace the person of the Holy Spirit, because it

said the power is gonna come from the Holy Spirit for you to live in

the overflow. So you want to have an overflow of love, the Holy

Spirit is gonna have to help you with that because your natural desire is gonna

be an overflow of slaps or an overflow of cusses. I don't even know

if that's right. Cusses or an overflow of gossip or come on, let's

be honest. We're still in this flesh. The overflow I want to give

you gonna make you want to go croud of your motha when the Holy Spirit

takes over and he's like, but God, I can matter of fact,

go pray for him. Oh no, you didn't, No, you didn't.

No, you didn't ask me to pray for that. Huci come on,

let's be honest and then watch it. I'mna obey you God because I

said, yes, Lord Lord, I hope that who Chi don't die?

Like what? That is not a good prayer, but it's a start,

okay, progressing over perfection. I'm just saying the only thing that can make

you do what the Bible says, love your enemy, turn the other cheek.

There's only one name. It's the Holy Spirit. And so what I

want you to know is the overflow is possible. The overflow is preceded by

trust, and the overflow is facilitated by the Holy Spirit. So today I

want to let you know that when I talk about the overflow, it really

is just being in God's presence. When we said the line, all that

I need is in the overflow. It's like when I'm close to God,

I get everything that comes with God. God is his number one characteristic is

what love. So when I'm around God, when I'm in his word,

because that's God's speaking, when I'm in his presence, when I'm worshiping,

when I'm praying, when I'm communicating in that place, there is an overflow

of what He is. You ever been around somebody who's think they have an

overflow of odor? Or have you ever worked in like a fast food restaurant

that had a particular grease or smell that they worked in. You can not

have touched it, but just had been in the atmosphere and go into a

new atmosphere and i'body like, who's been around chickens? Or you'd be like

my mom used to. She raised five boys, and she'd be like,

one of y'all smell like outside? What does that mean? I was outside?

Anybody else in parents told them they smell like outside. I mean,

but it wasn't that whatever we were doing necessarily made us come in contact with

that thing. It was just the overflow of the environment. When you get

in the presence of God, there is an overflow of the environment the things

that he comes with. And what I'm telling you is write this point down.

Overflow is a principle of God's presence. If God is there, overflow

is there. He can't help it. It's who he is. When he

was literally in the beginning looking at nothing, it could have just been nothing

because he was still God. He said, you know what, I need

to do something more than this, and out of his love, he begin

to create. And we still have fish in the ocean right now that no

man has ever seen, based off of one word of creation by our God.

And we still can't find every not just to overflow for us to eat

fish that would have been food. But he said, I'm gonna put colors

and sizes and fin types and noses and little things that twinkle at night because

they's so low, and I'll put light in fish. God, I'm trying

to let you know that it is in our God's nature not to just give

us a horse, but give us a giraffe. No make his neck long

ago laugh. I mean what we need is never do y'all hear what I'm

saying. Why do we need certain things? He said? They don't need

it. I need creation to speak for me when they think I run out.

But Lord, like I don't know what I'm gonna eat. Look at

the birds, which species? Try to name all of them? You can't

because my nature is more than what you need. Okay, I just need

you to understand the are God. If he shows up more than enough,

shows up, not barely enough, not just enough, not just meeting the

need. He says, I will have all that you need plus some.

We serve a god of the overflow. And the reason I have to say

it like that is because you may believe it in a church context, but

you don't believe it in the way you live. You don't believe it in

the way you handle your money. You stingy, but you call him Gyra

and you know it says he will give seed to the sower, but you

don't believe he lives in overflow because you're dependent on the job to give you

money. But every job on this earth is a resource. It is not

the source. But you get to decide what your source is. And until

you decide that he is my source, you'll never understand it's his nature to

give you the overflow. Let me just give you a few examples in the

word that you can go and study. Do y'all remember the story I'll told

you all last week about Peter and them casting the nets on the other side

of the boat after they fished all night. The thing we don't think about

is Peter he was so overwhelmed that he just ran to see Jesus. You

know what his partners was doing collecting fish because they fished all night and didn't

catch nothing. If they would have called fox fish, they would have been

excited. The Bible said, they caught one hundred and fifty three fish.

Practically, that is so much work to get all them fish in this little

boat in the nets, and they don't break. God said, I just

need to prove that them. My instruction will cause them to have work for

years. You missed it, You completely missed it. If they obey me,

I'll allow them to live in the y'all remember when there were people there

and there was a big revival happening on the side of a mountain, and

the disciples said, you know what, the people are probably hungry. And

he looked at the disciple and say, y'all feed him, And he said,

we don't have nothing to feed him. And then one of the disciples

said, well, one of the boys over there got a long John silver

snackpack with a few hushpuffies and some fish. He said, sit the people

down in groups, and he multiplied, yeah, I want. He multiplied

a long John silver snackpack to feed over twenty thousand people, with women and

children. Most theologians believe that would have been the most incredible miracle ever,

but everybody misses the most important part. There was still twelve baskets. The

God I serve specializes in the over Why did he have them twelve baskets?

Many theologians believe that one of them were for each of the disciples to let

them know you'll never serve and be left out. Oh God, okay,

I gotta move. Because his first miracle was an overflow miracle. Y'all remember

it. He was just at the party, like, trying not to dance,

and Mary was like, Jesus, no, I'm just Jesus. H

They done ran out of wind. He's like, Mom, what would I

have to do with that? My time has not come. Woman, That's

what it says. Who he talking to? Woman? She don't even talk

to Jesus no more. Look at the Bible. This is how I see

the She don't even talk like, hey, y'all, do whatever he said.

He about to do something. He about to do a miracle. He

about to turn water into wine. She's like, God, he went to

an empty place and he didn't just give them water. It would have been

miracle to just fill it up with water again. But what he did was

he turned it into the to the wine that was like, hold on,

y'all, kept the good stuff to the end. That's what Mary was saying,

Because we serve a god of I think you get the point. That's

why Ephesians three twenty says, now unto him who is able, by his

mighty power at work within, to accomplish infinitely more, then we might watch

this ask or it's the God of the oh. Even in the garden of

evening, I started thinking about this. Why don't he just give them two

trees, the one you can't eat from, the one you can't eat from.

He makes a garden. There are so many trees in this garden and

literally tells them you can only not eat from one of them, which lets

me know you can live in the overflow and be focused on what you are

not supposed to do. How in the world I got a whole forest of

fruit and I get tricked into focusing on no one thing. The God who

provided me with everything told me I can't have. See. This is what

I need everybody to know, is I'm talking about the overflow because I believe

some of y'all about to step into a place of faith, that things are

about to just start happening. I don't know where this group of people is.

But if you believe by faith, I need you to hear me.

Listen, I need to give you instructions because the overflow does not come without

opposition. Let me tell you the opposition of overflow. Watch. This overflow

comes with options, and some of y'all only obey God because you don't have

no options. Ooh wait, I mean your business you faithful because ain't nobody

been looking at you? I'm about to call somebody ugly. Only reason you

faithful is because nobody been checking for you. We'll get your little body riding,

get a little money, get you a little something, and look at

your way. You were like, what's up? And your name is the

Wayne you cross out my back. I'm what I'm saying to you is sometimes

the only reason you're faithful is because of lack of options. The only reason

you candmitted to the churches because nobody else will let you do nothing God,

okay, the only, the only, the only reason you pray is because

if you don't get an answer from God, then you have no other option.

But can you stay in the lane or in the flow of God?

When you have options? Will you stay at the job when there's a higher

pain when available. Oh I'm talking because you think every upgrade is a blessing

and some of them are a test. Now we'll pay you benefits and move

you here and do all that other stuff. And God told you but to

stay right where you at. But if it wasn't God, why would he

allow it to happen? Because many times God is trying to see where your

heart is, because many times our lips are far from him. Our lips

and our heart say two different things. And what I'm saying to you is

when you live in the overflow, get ready for options. But when you

have options, you have to be watched. This obedient. I could spend

a whole sermon, right, I really should sit and I should stay right

there. People don't understand how my life changed over the past ten years.

If somebody would say, what is the greatest thing that changed in your life?

Options? Options, that's all that's changed in my life as I got

options now. And God does not remove the options, he increases your ability

to be obedient. So when God told me in twenty and eighteen that I

could only do two speaking engagements a year, and eighteen hundred speaking engagement requests

came in in three months, eighteen hundred. In three months, every conference

I ever wanted to go to, they were gonna pay me to come and

say whatever. They didn't know what I was going to say before I got

up there, gonna pay me to say God loves you, and I'm like

boom, and they would have it would have changed my financial situation. But

God gave me an instruction too a month and since that year that was I

was like, and then maybe God will bump it up. That is the

most speaking engagements I've ever done ever, because every year after that he decreased

them. More opportunity, more options, more obedience. He said, I

gave you a church to build. He said, I need you to be

on this platform. He said, whatever conference you go to will be little

impact compared to what if you just dig a deep whale right here and be

there and stay in this place. And literally, y'all, God has done

more than we could ever imagine. But more options. That mean, do

you know what comes with the overflow? A strong No, y'all have not

been able to experience overflow because you'll know is weak you just no, I'll

definitely be there. I'll be there. At six o'clock and then somebody's like,

hey, we're going to dinner and it'll be a great business opportunity.

Will you be there? What time is it. It's at six o'clock.

Are you coming? Oh, well, give me one second. Let me

see if anything. And you're negotiating. You're negotiating when it should have been

a no. Stop finishing the word. It's no, not negotiate. I'm

gonna help you remember it. No, no, no, no, no,

not a negotiating no. And you can be kind and say no,

I can't do this in this season. You can be loving and say no,

because I'm telling you the overflow's coming and for many of us to own

is here. But to stay in the flow, you have to learn no

because options will take you off. Of course, if you don't obey God.

This ain't even my message, but I just keep hearing God say something.

Of y'all got to say no. Mmmmm because the power of the overflow.

Write this down. The power of overflow is in staying in position.

Stay in position. If I begin to allow God to overflow in my life,

God does not change his position. We have to change ours. Okay,

how can I demonstrate this? We just yeah, you fell off.

Here we go. If waters card's flowing from the source, the only way

this water gets caught is by this cup being in. The cup can be

close. But if it's not in, y'all help me preach. If the

cup is not in, the water is wasted and the cup is dry.

And too many believers think that this me and God are buddies walking with God

for years. Catch a picture of this close to God, close to God,

but not submitted to him, close to him, but not under him.

So when he begins to pour, it's wasted because you will not get

under well. I just feel like God should be able to use me from

here. I feel like God should be able to use me from here.

I feel like God. I mean, if he really want, he close

enough, he can turn towards me. He said, it is up to

you. He said, I'm the same. There's so many scriptures. I'm

everlasting. This is God. I do not change what we need to do.

Instead of asking God to locate us, God, will you just find

me where I am? He said, I did at salvation. When you

get introduced to Jesus, that's me coming after you. Now, this process

of being sanctified, renewed transform. You're gonna have to position yourself because you

gotta options. You don't gotta pray, you can play, you don't gotta

actually spend time with God. You can be on Twitter. So to position

yourself is an act of humility. And most people do not know how to

stay under God in position. So this is what I'm gonna teach you today,

how to stay in position because there is a flow that I believe that

God wants you to get in that's gonna allow you to do more than you

could ever imagine doing by yourself, because God's going to be supernaturally excelling you

and giving you grace. People gonna look at you and be like, how

in the world is she running that business and actually still being there for her

kids and actually rested. She don't even have to be buffies under her eyes

like I do. I'd be wearing a little mask all the time. Why

does it look like she's actually happy or peaceful or actually walking enjoy they have

a special needs child. Why does it look like Because you're gonna find the

flow, somebody shot at me flow. I was talking to Pastor Charles as

he's been on this new adventure of riding bikes, and I've been just trying

to see myself in them tights, and I just cannot fully picture all of

these thugs in them tights yet. And so I ask a lot of questions

about, you know, the bike riding and all that other stuff. And

one day we were talking and he told me, he said, when they're

doing those big races like the Tour de France and all those different things,

he said, they planned who's gonna win. And I was like, what

you mean. He said, well, they're riding in a team of four

to five people, and they said they literally get in a line so that

when they start to cut the wind, the person that's third or fourth back

is going to be using seventy percent less energy because they don't have to break

through the wind that's coming because they're in the flow of people who are going

the same direction. This is prophetic for some of y'all. It's called drafting,

that you get behind somebody. This is why it's important you get in

a tribe, because some of y'all been working too hard to go after stuff,

and God's saying you need to get a line do with some people that

when you're third or fourth back, you're able to go just as fast they're

going forty to fifty miles an hour on a bicycle. That seems dumb,

but what I'm telling you is the level of speed is produced by where they're

positioned in the flow. And I just got to thinking about it. This

reminds me of the scripture or the idea of the Kingdom that everything is upside

down because to win the race in the end, you have to start in

third or fourth position. It reminds me of the scripture that the first shall

be and the last shall be. And some of y'all are too prideful to

take the back seat for a season because God said, you don't need to

be in the front right now. Because the person in the front is purpose

to cut the wind, they don't have to work harder to do. You

ain't built for that. But in the end, if you would stay in

position, if you would get in the humble play, you don't need to

be the leader, or the pastor or the person at Oh God, and

you better stop listening the culture ignore. Everybody needs to be an entrepreneur.

No, no, everybody doesn't. Everybody doesn't need to have their own business

there is ministries in the Bible of support. Oh God that it literally says,

the ministry of helps. There are people that have gifts of administration.

You can't be the boss and administrate everything. I know they don't say that

in church because everybody want to be the top dog, but nobody want to

play on the team. And what you end up doing is quitting the race

because you're not in a flow. Somebody said, get in position. How

to stay in position for overflow? Number one? Pick your source? Pick

your source. Who is going to be your source? If this spout right

here represents godd and it has a steady y'all trying to figure out is this

thing actually work? It worked? I know somebody's like, is he gonna

there you go? This thing has an endless supply of water. It will

fill up anything I put in front of it. It will not change if

the lights go out. If the lights go out, this thing will steal

do what it's created to do. This represents God. If society, government,

your baby mama, your baby daddy start tripping, He's still a source.

He told the woman at the whale. Do you want to drink from

a whale that never runs? Why that means, if God is pouring out

and you're sitting next to him, steal empty. But if you could just

get in, I said, if you could just get in filled up?

Now watch The problem is many of us got a little bit of this,

that salvation, and then we started, oh oh I'm saved. Oh glory

to God, I'm saved, Thank you Jesus. Something say, but now

I want to go to this relationship to fill me up. You like me,

I like you. How many kids you won't, how many kids you

won't. Let's play house best these relationship goes. We read the book together.

Let's live our lives in purity, no anti purity culture. Did you

grow up in church? I did, but church people faith. Let's live

our lives away from God. At some point this is gonna run out.

And what we do is like ooh that last relationship it was trash. I

can't stand them. But I found a new relationship. Do you really read

your Bible every day? You got money right a little bit and even though

it looks bigger, I'm a good by myself. I can do bad all

by myself. We'll just come. I'm ready, dunce you and so now

got it I'm waiting on you today. I'm not doing this business again.

I'm not doing anything again to you, speaking to you. Do something.

Hey, I have a job for you making six figures. Hold on God,

I'll be right back. Wow, this is more than i've ever had.

Man, they seem like they got all the answers. They seem like

they know more than God. They talk to me more than God. And

at some point, even if they look like they won't run out, yeah

yeah, at some point, this is gonna stop feeling you up. And

you know what the crazy thing about it is, this looks like it's almost

full, but it's still a small container. See, full depends on capacity.

Some of y'all been talking about you living in the overflowing with a little

cup. This ain't enough for my family to drink from. This ain't enough

for my block to get what they need. This ain't enough for the church

to actually live with. And this is why we've settled for just enough for

me. I don't know where that water's from, but it is not living.

That is decrepit dead water. Okay, but listen, so we walk

around selfish. I'm only gonna do enough. Oh, I'm not gonna do

that no more. Just imagine me drinking it from now on. I'm only

gonna do enough to make sure I'm filled up. But what if the point

of the overflow was not for you? I know this is a wild concept

in twenty twenty four, that this whole Christian experience is not for you.

What if every blessing of God was because God saw somebody on the other side?

Oh my god. What if him delivering you and your marriage and changing

your idea, or you losing weight, or you walking as a testimony out

of addiction or out of that alternately, what if all of that was because

He saw somebody else that knew they wouldn't receive it unless it came in your

container. Oh my god. There are certain reasons that people will only drink

drinks out of certain containers. My daughter Jia, she gets sippy cups.

Nonspill restocked her this week because she'd just been spilling everywhere. Well, if

I brought that same sippy cup that had the drink everybody wanted up to a

forty eight year old man, most of them, if it wasn't with their

kids, wouldn't pucker their lifts up. They wouldn't do it because it would

feel beneath them. But my daughter, when she walks into an environment and

she sees that cup, she knows it's for her. There are certain people

that are drawn to your container because when you walk in with your statue,

your sense of humor, your inkling, your beauty, your they know that's

for me. I can relate to them. I'm not exclusive for them to

these people, but I know that's the type of person and there's Jesus that

they only can receive from a certain container. So point number two, how

to stay in position? Pick pick Well, I think the next one is

because the first one was pick your source. Our source is God, big,

big, what I'm gonna say it to you like this, pick your

size because because because because the truth of the matter is like like like the

wavering between two opinions. This is my source or this is my source six

figures is my source or God is my source. And while I'm on that,

I gotta talk to the people who are going after this money thing.

God. I need to be very clear with you because God only compares himself

to a few things in the Bible, and one of the things that he

tells us directly Matthew six twenty four. No one can serve two masters.

Another way, it could be said, you can't have two sources. Either

he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted

to one and despise the other. And then he said, y'all not gonna

get this. That's too much metaphors. You cannot serve God and money.

He says, choose your source. Well, my family can go on vacations

whenever they want to, but they're missing the value of God in the household.

So they know Disney, they don't know devotion. He says, serve

me, I'll get it. See first the kingdom and right standing with me,

all the other stuff gets at stop waiver and reminds me of Elijah when

he's standing with the prophets of Bales, and he says, choose you this

day who you gonna serve? If God be God, serve him. But

if Bell be God him today I'm asking you to make a decision, because

after you pick your source, somebody say my source is God. Say it

like you mean it. My source is God. I'm trying to teach you

how to stay in the overflow and be in position. Then you got to

pick your sighs. Which container should I go for? Which one? I

know which? Somebody said the bucket. Now hold on, now you're telling

me to go for the bucket, but you're going for the dixie cup.

No no, no, no no no no no no no no no no

no. Then you quote in scriptures like if I just have faith, decizeable

mustard seed God, today, I just want you to feel me. See

me, I'm good, feel me up. Look y'all, I'm overflowing.

Oh yeah, but it was according to your faith. The reason why God's

not been able to do more is because you didn't pick a vessel big enough

for him to do it in You've let your family dynamic make you settle for

a small vessel. Why God ain't never took nobody from where we're from and

done nothing like that. He don't need to, because He's specialized in taking

people who nobody's ever heard of and doing the impossible with him. But if

you believe the wrong report, you will settle for a vessel that is too

small to do what God's called you to do. How long? See this

is where anybody go to Sam's or Costco. This is how they get you.

These little raggedy little bitty cuffs. You want some fresh orange juice?

Yeah, I want some fresh orangee And then they fill up a cup like

this and I go back there making different faces like because they freshly squeezed me

on point, until I'm like, this is it's not enough. And some

of y'all you're in a place in your life where you you worship, you

come to church, you you pray, you a good person. It's just

not a it's not enough. God's not gonna change your vessel for you.

He's going to ask you to have the faith to change it for yourself.

Ask the woman that was about to lose her son because of debt, y'all

remember, and the prophet came to stay at our house and and he said,

make make make make me a little meal. And this whey, I'm

gonna tell you they're a miracle about to happen. What do your neighbors and

borrow a vessel? Vessels? And he literally says, don't borrow just a

few. And literally this woman sends her sons out like boys, get some

vessels. And so they start asking the name of my mama, said,

Mamma said you would let us borrow some vessels, and they bring all these

vessels to her, and they put just a little bit of oil they had,

and they started filling them up, and she's seeing all of this miracle.

And when this one got filled up, the next one got filled up,

and when that got filled up, the next one got filled up.

And you can imagine the room is full of overflow. And then the sightest

part of that scripture is it says, when there was no more vessels,

the oil stopped flowing. Could the overflow in your life be based on your

faith to be able to believe that God can do it more than his ability

to do it? Y'all don't believe me, but some of y'all have picked

the size that is too small. You've picked a size of what God.

The fact that we're in this room right now, it's because I picked.

I could either be okay with being where we started and just being like,

all right, Lord, I just want to be faithful, he said.

The spirit bank of Vincenter is gonna be transformation church. Pick the size,

Well, no, that's too much for me. Have never done anything like

that, God. I thank you for God. I have a six month

TCC degree, which they don't give a degree for that I've never done business.

I don't know. Pick your size? Are you gonna believe that I

can do this through you? And I'll send the right people and I'll bring

the things that you need. Pick your sighs, and do you know what

I did? I went to the secret place. See all y'all want to

pick off of what is seen God. If you can do exceedingly abundantly above

all I can ask or think. Okay, see, oh, y'all are

mad right now because you can't see me. And everybody wants to be seen

when God's given them the vision for what He's gonna fill up. But sometimes

you need to go dark. You need to get in a place where everybody

cannot evaluate what God's given you, and you need to actually bring out vessels

that are fit for what God has called you to do. Now, now

all of these vessels can fit inside what God wants to do in my life.

You can't stand waiting a minute for an example. Some of you right

now are what's going to happen next, and God's asking you to hold the

stance. You don't just have to pick your source God or pick your size.

It should be big faith. You have to pick your stance. I'm

gonna have to stay here like this. If I would have picked a smaller

cup, it would have already been filled. But the thing that God wants

to do in my life, and I believe he wants to do in your

life, is bigger than a quick field. Can you wait? Well,

dang, you got three more jars up there? Like what if? This

has nothing to do with you. This has to do with future generations.

This has to do with Bela, mj Ava and Ga. This is a

generational thing for me. Brent, come here, Nova, come here.

I need you. I need you to see this. Most of you are

glad I stopped. The source is still available. The source. Somebody say,

the source is still available. And this is what I believe that I

need everybody to see. Somebody say, pick your stance. Will you have

a stance that will wait when it makes other people uncomfortable? Will you have

a stance that you'll pray without ceasing even though people are telling you to move

on? This don't make no sense. You can't do it. But I

got a word from God. I can't back up off this thing. Will

at least show me how full it is. Nope, because that's gonna discourage

me to hear back what you say about where God's got me in the process.

No, no, no, stay over there, because only people with

faith can come and see what this is about to be. I said,

only people with faith. Some of y'all have been waiting ten years and it's

just about to pop off. Do not give up at the point of like,

well, oh God, The Bible says they that wait upon the Lord,

they shall renew their Switch hands, baby, if you got to,

I said, switch hands, if you got to. I'll do a little

bit on this one. I'll do a little bit on this one. Whatever

you gotta do, don't get out of been believing the faith for so long,

waste it today. I believe by faith, people are about to get

in for the overflow, and this is what happens. Come here, Brenton,

Come here. Nova. I told her I would pay one hundred dollars

today to help to help her uncle get in here. Yeah, take your

shoes off, she said, Can I please take my shoes off? Okay?

You know, Okay. What needs to happen is this is generational.

If Brentam just focuses on staying position for himself, what ends up happening is

one generation gets full and another generation stays dry. The reason why you're mad

at the kids in the society of today and the dances in TikTok is because

you weren't full enough to flow over into them. And you're you're disgusted with

what you never watered. You're mad at what you never had enough to pour

into. And I believe by the spirit that there are gonna be some parents,

and some pseudo parents, and some people that say, hold on,

all this ain't for me. I got to get you a little bit too.

Come on, let it. Look at her face. This is uncomfortable.

I don't know why they pray in the spirit. I don't know why

Mama be walking around the house worshiping like that. I don't know why they

put their hands on me in the middle of the knife. But all I

can say is I'm not dry. Oh I'm not dry. When I hear

adversity, I know a WHOA prayer comes up out of me when I hit

a struggle. Remember the scriptures that they taught me in Sunday School. It

mayin't seem kiddy to you, but it's power to me. How does it

feel nov it's cold one, it's uncomfortable. It doesn't it doesn't even feel

pleasant that everybody's watching this happen. But it's gonna take a parent with a

stance. My kids don't watch that. No, they can't go to that

movie with y'all. I don't care who's in it. Oh my god,

Oh they taking that stance. Take that app off my TV. I'm not

paying them to infiltrate. When my kids they got parental block. You didn't

even do it, you lazy, and you didn't even put the parental block

on it. And now your kids are getting destroyed at night while you're sleeping

with peace because you won't take a stance. But if you want to live

in the overflow, I feel this thing, y'all. You gotta pick your

sword. Somebody say God, you gotta pick your signs. Somebody say big,

and then you gotta pick your stance. Somebody say steady. That's why,

no matter who comes to this church or who leaves, I will be

standing on the faith that God has given me. Oh y'all, don't hear

me. I'm about to be steady. Make your decision. But as for

me, and eighteen years of doing this, you got eighteen years of that

child legally in your house, and you worried about them seeing you as a

friend. That's not your primary job. I hope they are your friends.

I hope that they got to make sure that they not dry when you send

them out into this world, because if you don't fill them up, somebody

will. He would have to be here the whole service plus to fill this

whole thing up. You okay, baby, you just cold? Huh,

it's cold. It's really uncomfortable. You geting one hundred dollars after this.

I promise you you gonna be okay. Okay, And I'm gonna give you

some new clothes too, Okay. I'm encouraging her to stay in it.

Oh my god. You always beating your kids, telling them what they're not

doing right, And I've did digitated. You meant my last name, our

last and we don't do no. Baby, you can do this. I

know it's hard. I know they're cyber bullying. But you are beautifully and

wonderfully made. You are the headed not to tail. God's hand is on

your life. You're gonna do great things. Stay focused, baby, you

have a gift to sink. You're gonna do everything that God told you to

do. I will not let my kids be dry. You better not start

that organ I will flick this whole thing out. Somebody say, I will

pick my stance. If you agree with everything culture is given us, you

haven't picked your stance. And some of y'all just let the baby. Let

her out the life she's gonna have, the life that she's gonna be able

to walk in, the life that she's gonna be able to understand. When

she walks onto the college campus, she's gonna be like, look at all

these dry people. Holy Spirit activate, Holy Spirit Activate. I'm talking about

answers when people are wondering favor on my that's living in the over How do

I stay in position for the overflow? I pick my source. Everybody say

God, I pick my side. Somebody say big, I pick my stance.

Somebody say steady, last one. Pick your story today. I'm asking

you what kind of story will be told? And it's not on God to

pick your story. You get to pick it. Are you going to live

a life of faith or are you going to live a life of fear?

Pick your story? Are you going to live a life of purity or you're

gonna live a life of promiscuity. Pick your story. So many things have

happened to me. Yes, you cannot stop what has happened to you,

but you now are responsible for what happens from here. You can move cities,

you can move church, you can move states, you can go into

witness protection. I don't know how deep your situation. I'm just saying a

lot of times were stuck here, and God's saying today, I want to

give you the opportunity to live in the overflow except Jesus, and then pick

your story after that. See when Jesus comes in. He changed people's stories.

Y'all remember saw right the Christian killing. He was an assassin, and

he got met on the Damascus road, got a complete three sixty turnaround,

and then literally formed the church with his words through the Holy Spirit. He

was somebody who picked a different story. We reference his killings, but it's

only to put it against the backdrop of how God transformed his life. Your

story, how disgusting, jacked up and unfair it is, should only be

the precursor to the turnaround and the overflow that God does in your life.

But many people, under the sound of my voice have not picked their story.

You have not decided. I will be an overcomer. I was abused

for ten years. My children got raised in abuse. I feel like a

bad mother. But as of today, y'all, don't hear what I'm saying

to you. Somebody say, as of today, I had did it.

I was addicted, I messed up. Let me give you one that's not

so extreme. I've been mean, but I've been in church and I don't

believe the scriptures. But I'll judge other people. But today I'm making a

decision to walk in love. Pick your story. You know who picked their

story? Elisha, y'all remember Elijah, his predecessor. Oh, oh,

you're doing so good. No, it looks a little. It feels like

it's coming to the top right now. It feels like if you would just

wait on God just a little longer. It feels like if you would begin

to praise God a little bit, jump up and down for me. Oh

oh, it feels like, Oh, it feels like to pray. Oh,

y'all, better, pray, stop stounds out. You know your praise

can accelerate the overflow. Ho ho ho. The reason that we wrote this

music is so that when you get up in the morning, and you almost

at the top, and that song begins to start, and you begin to

say, I'm living in the overflow. You know what, if you ask

me where I'm living, I'm living in the Oh. Your praise can begin

to move things. Just praise them one more time, Nova, just for

hey, hold on, hold on. They're not ready for that. They're

not ready for that. Herry. Now, Brent, go back to filling

yours up, because at some point she is responsible. You don't miss that.

Give me a couple of towels. At some point Nova will not be

able to actually depend on her father anymore. I'm gonna stop this before it

gets to my whole tech team is having a heart attack right now. I'm

gonna electrocute everything. At some point it will no longer be on brentam to

fill her up. And some of you have been out of the house spiritually

for decades, still waiting on somebody to fill you up. That's why when

people say stuff, I gotta leader at church, I'm not getting fed there.

You have not learned to go to the source for yourself. It don't

matter what I preach up here, as long as it ain't heresy, you

should be able to take something I said and say, Holy Spirit, speak

to me, show me. Oh, but you don't have actual Bible reading

time for yourself. This is your Bible study for the week. There's no

way you can live in the overflow if this is your only meal. If

this is okay, after church today, eat and then don't eat till next

Sunday. No, no, no, no no. Let's just make it

spiritual and practical. Come in here next week and see how you feel.

You would be depleted, you wouldn't have energy. You would come and you'd

be dehodrated. Pick up living water. That's who he is. They even

use all these analogies, the bread of life. He's trying to ignite your

mind through your stomach. Y'all know, y'all be killing them Texas rolls.

At them rolls at Texas row House. Y'all y'all done kept them in business

for forty two years off the free rolls. And then that brown bread at

cheesecake factory begin you for you. You ain't h your meal at cheesecake factory

forty two times in a row, never finish the meal full off of bread.

That's what happens. Enough to take home because I get feel on the

bread of life. Hear me, Thank y'all. Can y'all give it up?

That was beautiful, Scott, Scotty, make sure she get makes sure

she get that hundred dollars brother, because yeah, she ain't gonna call me

a lion uncle. Uh uh. You know she's not pick your story passer,

Mike, What do you mean Elishah picked this story? Remember Elijah was

with Yeah, come on, Elijah was with Elijah, powerful man of God.

She's cleaning up water. Look at me, hey, everybody, you

do this with your kids that they get off the bats up. Look at

me. The anointings here. Okay, No, hear what I'm saying to

you. He's standing with this powerful man of God, and the powerful Man

of God is about to transition and Elijah is about to literally be raptured up

to heaven. And Elijah says, I want the double portion. I want

the overflow of what I saw you walk in. I want the overflow of

all the miracles, all the breakthroughs. I want the over and look,

Elijah didn't promise it to him. He said, if you in position,

if you're with me when I get taken up, I'm teaching you to stay

in the position of the overflow. If you're in position when it's time,

you'll get it. A few scriptures later said they were just walking. I

mean, this is traumatic for me. It's like Elijah. You remember that

foof gone straight off of Avengers. Y'all remember when everybody started like dissipating in

the blip. And it literally said because he was in position, the cloak

fell, which was a symbol of the mental that he carried, and he

was able to put it on. Not because he served him for years,

not because he was a good guy. He got the overflow for one reason

he was in position. Today, Church, I'm asking you, would you

please get in position for the overflow. Would you please make time that you

spend with God, spending prayer the reason we're starting to dig, which is

an acronym for going deeper in God, for our Tulsa campus that will eventually

expand to our full transformation nation and the shoot. If somebody is in marketing,

web courses and all the different things we need you, where are you

get here? Because she said right here, somebody find her after search.

Listen, everything we need, everything we need to live in the overflow.

I believe it's right here. But do you know many times the church goes

without because people are out of We need thousands of people to be able to

take these dig courses. But the reason we're doing it is to help people

get in position in their relationship, position in knowing how to study the Bible,

get into position on actually being able to handle finances or do whatever.

That's why I want you to come on Wednesday nights if you're in this building,

why I want you to study the scriptures that we say these aren't scriptures

so you can just make an Instagram post, do that, but actually go

back to the Bible, because if you're in position for the overflow, everything

changes. I'm gonna go back to our anchor scripture Romans fifteen thirteen. I

pray that God, the Source of Hope start playing behind me because I'm about

to turn up and I want you to play metiicrational music right now. Give

me an ending flow. Thank you. I love having fun over here.

I pray that the God, the Source Hope will feel you completely with joy

and peace. Because somebody say I trust him, say it one more time,

I trust him. Then you will shout out overflow, say it like

you mean it. Say it like you want it for your family, say

it like it'll be generational. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the

power of the Holy Spirit. Worship Team. Come join me. I pray

for every person under the sound of my voice that from this day on you

will know it is God's desire and design for you to live in the overflow.

Somebody just say a man, right there, let me tell you this

story and then we out of here. No, we won't sing the song

one more time at the because I believe this song one more time at the

end with revelation, it's about to change everything. Yesterday my wife sent me

on the journey to take my daughter's unknowingly to both of their basketball games.

You know how you ever woke up? Maybe you don't know if you don't

got a spouse, but there's sometimes you wake up and you went to sleep

thinking the plan was one thing, and then you wake up and within thirty

minutes of waking up, you realize your day will not be how you planned

your day to day. And so I get awakened to the fact that I

have to take one daughter to the other side of town with the fifteen minute

window to then get my other daughter to Bixby. I went north for one

game, Bigxby to the other game, and what I realized is in haste

as I left my home, I have an electric car and I'm driving to

this north side, which is about twenty five miles away. I realize as

I pull up, I have twenty two miles left. I said, I'm

not even gonna worry about it right now. I'm gonna go into this game.

Hopefully they win, and when I come back, maybe a miracle will

have happened and there'll be some more miles when I came back. No miracle

twenty one minus. I'm not even playing, y'all, but it's set twenty

one miles. So I looked up the shortest route to see how I could

get back to my charger. And what ended up happening is it said it

was twenty two miles, and I was like, ooh, they probably got

a couple miles reserve. So children, pray no in the spirit Terry.

I need read day bad, like I told my kids, loud dungues,

loud dunge, and mind you, they got a game that's about to start.

I get to forty first and one sixty nine for everybody's in Tulsa and

the thing literally is at zero. I said, oh the blood at the

moment. I called Scott, I called my wife, I called my sisters.

Day I said, everybody getting ready because I might need a ride off

the highway. And I said, but I'm gonna keep going. I just

gotta make it to this charging station. I rode for twenty miles on zero.

Okay, now watch The clapping part is not that I made it to

the charging station. The clapping part is I made a decision that I will

never be that close to empty again. Hear what I just said to you.

Many of you clap because you made it. I made it, just

barely got out of there. And God said, when will you be tired

of living that empty? If I give you an assignment and you go and

come back and don't got nothing left, what do you give to your kids?

What do you give to your future? What do you give to the

thing? He said? I want you to lead? And the truth of

the matter is I could have left the house full, but I didn't plug

it in and the season that I was supposed to I think many of us

are running on empty because we won't just and today I'm asking you stop being

okay with empty because empty last point, the opposite of empty is overflow.

So if you're not experiencing the overflow, it's closer to empty. I want

everybody under the sound of my voice to live in the overflow. Amen,

if you're gonna live in the overflow, can you clap your hands and thank

God in this place? Would you stand all over this place? Listen just

before you leave. You can leave out on the song, but you don't

leave out on salvation. To hear me, there are people in here who

are making a decision that I'll no longer live close to empty, and some

of you saying close to empty pasta I'm in the deficit. I ain't nothing.

There's dry and God saying, would you like to take a drink from

a well that doesn't run dry? His name is Jesus, and when you

accept Jesus, it changes everything. It took me from being a liar,

a manipulator, somebody who was addicted to pornography. My soul was dry,

but when I accepted Jesus into my life, it began the overflow. And

I'm not talking about a moment. I live in the overflow. The bucket

I didn't bring out. I told them to get me ten of these buckets.

I just thought it was going to be excessive because I didn't want none

of y'all to be mad at me my faith now for what I believe God

can do because of the things I've seen him do. I can't even share

everything with everybody because you would hate me just based on how I believe God.

Today, I'm inviting you to take the first step to believe that our

God can do anything. And the most amazing thing is not filling up a

bank account, not filling up a building. He's the only one that can

fill up your heart. It reminds me of the man that needed a healing

that his friends brought him to him on a map and Jesus performed one more

overflow miracle. He said, I could heal you, and everybody would be

like, yay, he said, But what's harder to do to forgive a

man's sins and make him clean or to heal his infirmity? He said,

matter of fact, I'm gonna let you live in the overflow. Here's both

of them. He heals his sickness and heals his sininess. And this is

what we get the opportunity to receive today. If you're in this room,

man and you want to live in the overflow, it starts with accepting Jesus.

Pick your source today on account of three. If you want to make

Jesus your personal Lord and savior. If you want to make Eastern not a

thing that happened two weeks ago or three weeks ago. You want to make

it a thing that resurrects in you every morning that you wake up with new

grace and mercy. Today, I want you to accept Jesus. And it's

super simple. It's just believing in your heart and confessing with your mouth.

That's it, and we're gonna do it with you. So if that's you,

one, you're making the greatest decision of your life. Two. I'm

proud of you. But more than that, your name is about to be

written in the Lamb's Book of Life, and your eternity is about to be

secure with faith and boldness. Three, lift your hand up if you want

to make Jesus Christ your personal Lord and savior. I see you, my

brother, I see you, says Oh, come on, Transformation Church.

I see hands all the way in the balcony. Oh, come on,

y'all, I see you. But more than that, God sees you into

chat. Glory to God. You can put your hand down. I see

your sister at Transformation Church. Nobody prays alone. We're a family. Somebody

say we have a family. We abjact a family. Let me just go

ahead and tell you we all got that cousin or that uncle. There's like

six of them here. But if it wasn't for the grace and mercy of

God, where would we be? Would you? Everybody just lift your hands,

say God, thank you for sending Jesus to change my life today.

I admit that I've been dry and I need my thirst to be quenched.

I believe you lived, you died, and you rose again with all power

just for me. Change me, renew me, transform me. I'm yours

in Jesus' name. Amen? Can we turn up like heaven in this place?

How sa can't we turn up? So proud of you? Listen to

me? If you just pray that prayer, we want to help you.

Is the family dinner thing full tonight? It's full? Okay, just go

okay, just pull up, Okay, I don't know. It's fool guys.

The family dinner is full. Just go tonight at six o'clock. I

want you to get connected. You might not eat, but go. I

want you to save to the number on the screen, and I want you

to come back because we're gonna live in the overflow next week. I got

a surprise for y'all. Our oversight passed. The pass to Tim Ross is

gonna be in the building next week. Invite all your friends. It's gonna

be next level. And today at two pm, I want you to go,

and I want you to turn on YouTube so we can overflow together.

Listen before you leave this place if you need prayer for anything. That big

sign back there that says prayer and kind of has the overflow blue going up

it. There's tons of people back there that want to pray with you.

Don't leave this prayer place without agreement. We love you. We thank God

for you. Father, in the name of Jesus, I thank you that

you've done what you wanted to do today and now we will live in the

overflow. Have your way, and I declare this will be the best week

we've ever had. Father, God, that we will see your grace and

your mercy in every area of our life. Father that there will be no

dry area, and we will wait on you for you to fill us up.

We give you glory, we give you honor, and we give you

praise in Jesus' name. Somebody say, we agree, we expect amen.

Thank you for joining us today. If you said that prayer and accept it

Jesus into your heart, it's the best decision you could ever make. We

want to celebrate with you, and we have some tools to help you on

your journey. Tech saved to A two two eight and to find out more
