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 to today's message. This is week
-
one of a series we're calling Somebody shouted at me fresh fruit? Does anybody
-
love fresh fruit? Now? Maybe I should ask does anybody like stale fruit?
-
Because sometimes you can find the value of something in the opposite. Because
-
if somebody offered you something that was dull and nasty, your response would be
-
no, thank you. But when somebody offers you something everybody shout at me
-
fresh, it changes the dynamic of how you approach it. Today, as
-
we start this brand new series, I want to let you know that God
-
has given us a word as a church and for the year of twenty twenty
-
four, prophetically, we are declaring that this is the year of what Fruit.
-
Say it again, Fruit, say it with faith. Fruit. I'm
-
talking about fruit in every area of your life. Only thirteen people believe it,
-
but I'm gonna say it one more time. I'm talking about fruit in
-
every area of your life. And over the next nine weeks, all the
-
way up to Easter. I'm just gonna be sharing this thing that God has
-
given me to release to the body of Christ. And I'm gonna go ahead
-
and give you a spoil alert. I'm not talking about the fruits of the
-
spirit, none of these nine weeks. No, don't you need those yet?
-
Don't yell for that what I'm gonna do that. She's like, now,
-
thank you God, We're not talking about your word. Hold on,
-
listen. What I'm trying to say is I believe God's giving me fresh revelation
-
to build up the idea of why we need fruit in our lives more than
-
ever before. And then in the fall, from from September to Christmas,
-
I'm gonna wear out the fruits of the spirit. And I'm telling y'all the
-
things that God has already shown me for nine months from now right. But
-
I gotta start building value today. So John fifteen sixteen is gonna be our
-
anchor scripture. And I got twenty seven minutes to do this in so I
-
need y'all to rock with me. I'm a I'm a whip through this,
-
but it's so dense impact that this fruit is juicy, and you gonna you're
-
gonna have some dripping driffing. Okay, you've got to go back this week.
-
John fifteen sixteen. This is Jesus talking. This is our anchor scripture
-
for the year. Look at him talking to you. So strong. You
-
did not choose me, but I chose you. Yes, that'sor Charles so
-
eloquently coined at conference, God chose me, and today Jesus is saying that.
-
And he's saying, I chose you and watched this. I appointed you.
-
Why did God appoint me? I mean, there could be a lot
-
of reasons why he appointed me, Why he put me in position, Why
-
he said you, why he said your name, why he said this family,
-
why he said this era. I appointed you for one reason, so
-
that you might go and bear fruit. I was expecting something else there,
-
but God said, you ain't choose me. I chose you, and I
-
chose you for one reason, bear fruit that is so strong. And then
-
he doubles down and he said, I don't just want any type of fruit.
-
I want fruit that will last, and so that whatever you ask it
-
my name, the Father will give you. Somebody shot in me fruit.
-
When God gave me this on July third, I wrote it down and these
-
words came out on I message. It said, fruit stands for faith repeating
-
until it transforms. You want to see fruit, You're gonna have to use
-
your faith over and over, repeating until whatever you put in the ground starts
-
transforming. And many of us getting lost and left behind because we want fruit
-
and we don't want to plant nothing. I can't stay here today. But
-
what I want to let you know is that you can't be fruit full if
-
you're seed less. I'm gonna say it one more time because some of y'all,
-
somebody sneezed over there and you missed it. You cannot be fruit full
-
if you are seed less. And in this series, I'm gonna teach you
-
how to take the seeds that God's already planted on the inside of you and
-
plant them somewhere and watch it and water it and pray over it and wait
-
on it, and it will be your faith repeating until it transforms. I
-
was gonna just name this series Fruit, but the Holy Spirit said, I
-
don't want it to be stale. People. If you name the series fruit,
-
they gonna think they already know what I'm saying. Oh, fruit,
-
love, joy, pea's patience. Can they're gonna they're going to hit the
-
religious hierarchy on this series, he said, But nobody can argue with something
-
that's fresh. And so then I begin to look at that word fresh.
-
And then I was thinking about my own life and in this last season,
-
as I've transitioned in sizes my clothes, practically, I've been given away a
-
lot of clothes. And you know, I've been giving way a lot of
-
clothes with tags on them, within boxes and all that other stuff. And
-
you know, when you're in the moment giving away the clothes, it becomes
-
overwhelming because you're frustrated that you're even dealing with this, and so you start
-
looking at stuff differently and you're like, no, just give it away,
-
Just give it away, just give it away. Give And then I've come
-
into a couple of places and I've seen some people with the clothes I discarded
-
on and for some reason, it was more appealing to me on them than
-
it was on the rack. And I was trying to figure out why I
-
liked my clothes again that I gave away. It's because whatever they put it
-
with, however they matched it, however they wore their own swag and energy.
-
It wasn't new because I gave it to them. It was old to
-
me, but the way they put it together was fresh. They had a
-
fresh perspective on it. They had a fresh outlook on it. They had
-
a fresh idea about how to wear this. And I want to know,
-
is the place that God is bringing you into in twenty twenty four. Is
-
this a place that's supposed to be new or is it a place that God
-
desires to take what is already there and make it fresh? Okay, Okay.
-
I was telling my friend that next week I'm preaching the Vision series in
-
this for our church, but I couldn't do it without laying the foundation of
-
what fresh looks like. Because next week I'm going to share the vision of
-
this church, and I want to let you know it's not new, but
-
it's the way that God has given me. What this church is about to
-
do and how you play a part in it is so fresh, but it's
-
still representing God to the loss and found for transformation in Christ. It's not
-
new, it's why do you keep saying that because it's the title of my
-
message. It's not new, it's fresh. You gonna go back to your
-
apartment today and You're gonna stop begging for another house. You gonna look around
-
what you already have and say, God, give me fresh vision for what
-
you have for me in here, because you know what, I don't need
-
nothing new. If I just would get a fresh perspective on what God has
-
already trusted in my hand, it can change and transform into something completely different.
-
Somebody say it's not new, it's fresh. When I told this friend
-
that I was about to do a vision series next week, he said,
-
bro, you need to go check out that new Apple Vision pro And I
-
said, what you're talking about? He said, Apple just put out some
-
crazy technology. You need to see it. And I said, why do
-
I need to see that. I'm a grown man. I don't need I
-
don't I don't need that. And he was like, yeah, just go
-
see. So my wife was shopping the other night and I'll just you know,
-
she's in the Lady's store and I was like, I don't want to
-
go in here with you. I'm gonna go over to the Apple store.
-
I went to the Apple Store and I asked for a demo of this new
-
little situation. And I know I have kids, but they disappeared. I
-
put the goggles on Ava and bella word there, and then for thirty five
-
minutes, I was in this world. Matter of fact, y'all, they
-
got me. Bring them here real quick, Bring them here, because I
-
want to show you what the Lord did for me. I went and I
-
really I want to make a confession to my wife because I don't think she
-
knew I had these. They got me because I went into that store and
-
I put on these, uh, these goggles and uh the technology that is
-
in these things. I know y'all looking at me crazy right now, but
-
I'm looking at you crazy because I can see everything. But now I can
-
see everything with other things in front of it, Like Black Panther is playing
-
right here. You're laughing, but I'm watching the movie and not paying attention
-
to you laughing at me. My I message is right here. I'm about
-
I'm about to FaceTime somebody right here, and I'm literally looking at all of
-
these things. Oh my gosh, this looks crazy to you, but to
-
me, I'm actually sending things. You're laughing, but I just send somebody
-
money. Yeah, I have full surround sound on right now. I'm really
-
trying not to get distracted, but I am Wow somebody told me, yeah,
-
get the new goggles. And as I walked out and they said new
-
goggles, I started to think, this technology is not new, it's this
-
is just pictures and video and and goggles and text messages. But because somebody
-
got a fresh perspective on what was already available, the value of what was
-
regular went up tremendous. Now, the church has been asking God to do
-
something new for years. When he said, if you would just take what
-
I've already given you and ask for a fresh revelation, fresh fire, fresh
-
anointing, it would be something that would become valuable, not just to you,
-
but to the whole world. And what does the church do. We
-
take these goggles off and we put these on. You're laughing, So is
-
the culture. We're in an environment that is changing away on time. Oh
-
I don't even need these in this environment. I walk into the restaurant with
-
antiquated love, walk into the business place feel with the Holy Spirit, no
-
kindness, and I just begin to think, by the last seventeen minutes,
-
God, could you be trying to do something to let us know that You're
-
not going to do a new thing. You want to do a fresh thing
-
and when I looked at this technology, and literally my friends were all tripping
-
out over the technology. Some of them started hating, why do you need
-
that? This word is going to take over the world. You're hating because
-
you don't have it. You're hating because you've never experience what's on the other
-
side of something fresh. And I just wanted to build the value today before
-
I give you fresh vision next week that if you don't stop desiring new,
-
you will discount what God's trying to do in the place you're already at.
-
Write this down. A life with Christ is not about what I get that's
-
new. It's about what I keep fresh. I don't need nothing new in
-
Christ. After I get salvation. I just gotta keep my prayer life fresh,
-
my community fresh, my ability to be transparent fresh. And some of
-
y'all's ability to be honest is stale and crusty. And so God says,
-
tell the truth to your brother. God says, join a small group.
-
God says, go write that book. And you have not done your part
-
in the equation of the Christian life. You have not kept your relationship with
-
Him fresh. So I go to other things looking for something new. And
-
God said, you ain't prayed to me in two years. No, you've
-
begged me for things and asked me to save you. But a relationship that's
-
fresh, you don't care to spend time with me. You care that I
-
save you. Ecclesiastes one nine. The things that have been it is that
-
which shall be, And that which is done is that which shall be done.
-
You know the Bible trying to make you confuse. It'll bring it together
-
right here. And there is no new thing under the sun. What has
-
been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be
-
done. And there is nothing new under the sun. So if there's nothing
-
new under the sun, why does God want to have a fresh relationship with
-
me, he says, because I have revealed truth or revelation under what you
-
think is regular. I will use a hard situation, and if you keep
-
your relationship with me fresh, I'll make you into a person you never thought
-
possible. When me and my wife got to diagnose with our son having autism,
-
I thought it was the worst thing that ever happened to us, and
-
it sucks. But who I've become at having to go to God daily to
-
stay fresh, just to get back in the race. To be able to
-
believe him. There was something under what I thought was normal that made me
-
somebody shot at me fresh. And this is what I need to be able
-
to pinpoint real quick, because I'm for you, just for one second.
-
Culture desire's new. Christ desires fresh. If you keep going to cool culture
-
and you keep doing it, what's new on the feed, what's the next
-
scene, Who's putting out a new song. I'm just I'm just submitting to
-
you that God might not want to do nothing new in twenty twenty four.
-
What if He took everything you already got and gave you a fresh perspective,
-
a fresh spirit, a fresh attitude on it. You don't need a new
-
marriage. You need a fresh marriage. You don't need a new car something
-
like pastor you don't even know my car, your situation. Someone's like,
-
I might need a new car. But I'm saying, what if stewardship is
-
a real thing to God, And what if the way you're taking care of
-
what you don't see value in it's part of the timeline of when something fresh
-
is coming. All I'm saying to you is I don't want you to get
-
played like Michael Jordan's shoe company is playing all of us. Somebody like,
-
what this man hasn't played basketball in decades but has a billion dollar shoe industry.
-
And you know what they do. They take the shoes that are old
-
and they tell you that they're reimagined and they give them to you. And
-
people stand in line to buy the same old thing, and they call them
-
what retro? Y'all know what that word means? Old? Oh you get
-
them retro, you get them old? Is that what you're saying to me?
-
And they have made billions of dollars selling old things to people with new
-
excitement. Could it be that you have been sold by the enemy. I'm
-
done with that relationship, and now you have a reimagined one. But it
-
looks just like the old one. What a different name the reimagine? Ricky?
-
And you show it up? Hey, bro, you see these new
-
I got the aid all these old things. And somebody somebody is like,
-
passa mike. What are you saying? If you don't look for fresh,
-
you'll settle for old. The enemy would love for you to buy the old
-
thing with new excitement, But I'm not falling for it this year. Somebody
-
say, I want what's fresh? No, say it like you mean it
-
with faith. I want what's fresh. Write this down because I have Jesus.
-
I don't need something new, I need something fresh. You're gonna look
-
back over these notes and it's gonna be the same thing with small nuances,
-
because what God is trying to get you to understand is the fruit he wants
-
in your life. He does not want the fruit your mama ym had.
-
I'm not saying that what they had wasn't good, but if you still living
-
off their prayers and the only scriptures you know is the three that they told
-
you and the one you got tatted across your stomach, God's saying, I
-
want to give you fresh Rayma, I want to give you word. I
-
want to give you I want to give you my heart. I want to
-
give you my mind. Somebody yell at me fresh, okay. Corinthians five
-
point seventeen. This is very important. This is why I'm trying to get
-
this into you, that God wants to do something fresh in you. Somebody
-
just said God wants to do something fresh in me. Eugh, because the
-
time he does something new is at salvation. Corinthians five seventeen. Therefore,
-
if anyone is in Christ He is a new creation. The old has passed
-
and the new Behold, the new has what spiritually you are new at the
-
point you were saved. But I gotta keep my prayer life fresh. I
-
gotta keep my accountability fresh. I gotta keep my community fresh. I gotta
-
keep my heart to give. Have you ever been real generous in one season
-
and stingy in another? Why is that? Because something in me did not
-
do what was necessary to keep it fresh. Perfect example is that of this
-
is if you ever work out really hard for a season and then you take
-
four months off, it's almost as if you never ever did anything. It's
-
because you didn't keep the muscles. This revelation, watch this. This is
-
what I want you to go home with today, and then I'm gonna share
-
vision with you next week. But I need you to get this. This
-
revelation lets you know where you're at and what you have is enough. And
-
this is the place where most of us are not. Watch this word content.
-
The reason you have so much anxiety, the reason why you're trying to
-
find where we at, we outside, where we're going on vacation, Who's
-
this, Where's my new job, Where's my new bay, Where's my new
-
it's comfort season and all of these, all of that, what's the new
-
trend? What's the new tik? Talk? What new? Even? Am
-
I getting? What? Wig is it? Am I getting Priscilla? Or
-
are I getting Paris? What are you trying to do? I need a
-
new look, I need a new Why are you doing all of that?
-
Because you're actually not content and you cannot be content with a mind that thinks
-
here is not enough. This is hard for me to preach because literally,
-
the Lord had to strip me for two years. And I'll talk about the
-
pruning season when you want fresh fruit, but he had to me for two
-
years to let me realize that here is enough. If nobody else comes to
-
our church, whoever shows up, it's enough. If the songs never get
-
out. But we just had that experience that we just had in this place.
-
Today, somebody say it's enough. This is going to release you so
-
that you can have fresh food in your life. Where you're at is enough.
-
And even when I say that, some of y'all got mad because I
-
sold the ball, I can do it. Say it ain't name oh oh
-
boffoh, I think or imagine he can do that. But if he doesn't
-
is he still good? Is he still worthy? Does he still deserve your
-
devotion? And so many of us want a new word from God, a
-
new thing from God, And he is begging you, would you let me
-
just give you a fresh perspective on whatever already placed in your hands, because
-
what is not new can feel new. Some of the best gifts I've ever
-
gotten were not things that came fresh out of the store. It was stuff
-
that other people had that they said, man, this watch would look good
-
on you, and they gave it to me. I was like, this
-
does look good on me. And the value was put there because it was
-
not new to them, but it was fresh to me. Matthew, Chapter
-
nine, verse fourteen. This is where we're going end today. Ooh.
-
The disciples are asked about fasting while Jesus is sitting there, and these people
-
of the day are trying to do things to make religious status instead of doing
-
the things that were asked of them. So there was only one fast that
-
they needed to do, but they started doing it as a ritual to actually
-
boost their confidence and their view in other people's eyes. So they asked Jesus,
-
why your disciple's not fasting, and Jesus said, bro. Let me
-
break this down with a parable real quick Matthew, Chapter nine, verse fourteen.
-
And no one puts new wine into old wine skins, for the old
-
skins would burst from the pressure, spilling the wine and ruining the skins.
-
New wine. Watch this is stored in new wine skins, so that both
-
are preserved. Hold on, God wants to do something new, but he
-
wants to put it in something fresh. If God is gonna pour new wine
-
into our lives, he's not gonna pour it into old vessels. You want
-
a new thing from God, you need a new vessel. Let me prove
-
it to you. So I did a little Greek in Hebrew's study on this.
-
Right here, that word that says new wine is stored in new wine
-
skins new wine. The Greek word is NEOs, and that means not fully
-
the so it's saying the not fully developed wine cannot be stored. And then
-
it uses the same word new right here. But this is the Greek word
-
chaos, And as you know, I don't even know the right pronunciation,
-
but that feels good, chaoos, and I'll put it up later. But
-
that word translates to fresh. So in the original translation, it says new
-
wine is stored, cannot be is stored in new wine skins. This is
-
why we got to study our Bible. What it really is saying is not
-
fully developed wine cannot be stored or has to be stored in fresh vessels.
-
I'm gonna say it one more time. The new wine that God wants to
-
pour has to be stored in fresh vessels. Or watch this, the vessel
-
breaks. The reason why this is so important because everybody's clang out for something
-
new. God, I want my business to crack off this year. God,
-
I want my relationship, he said, If I give it to you
-
with that old vessel, if I give you what I have, I got
-
it for you. I'm not short on what I have for transformation in church.
-
I'm not short on what I have for your marriage. I'm not short
-
on what I have for your life. But if I give you this new
-
juice with that old wine skin, God's not pouring new unless the vessel is
-
fresh. That's all I came to tell you today. Next week, I'm
-
gonna pour some fresh vision into you that I believe that is going to literally
-
not just transform our lives, it's gonna transform the world. But I let
-
it. I needed to come let you know today that if you approach next
-
Sunday's vision that God has poured into me and it's gonna pour into you with
-
old wine skin. I just came to warn you it might break you.
-
Y'all. Don't listen to the word. It might be the thing that makes
-
it bah or we can decide today, Lord give me a fresh perspective.
-
Whatever you want to do, whatever you want to do, whatever you want
-
to do, have your a have that's not a song, that's me renewing
-
my mind so that I can have a fresh vessel to receive everything God has
-
for me. Write this down because some of y'all like, well, why
-
will God give us something new that would not be able to be hailed with
-
the who I am today? Because the thing you have to realize is,
-
just like back in that day, new wine had a property that would expand.
-
So if the vessel did not have the ability to expand with it,
-
it would actually put pressure on it to the point where it would break.
-
God saying, if you're not flexible in this next year to be able to
-
expand what I'm doing, that's not a part of your personality type that you've
-
never seen anybody doing your family that's outside of your comfort zone. Man,
-
there's a lot of black people that go there, and you was raised with
-
all white people. What I'm saying to you is if you don't stretch,
-
you won't be able to hold what's fresh. And God's requirement for fresh is
-
not a limitation. It's for preservation. He doesn't want to waste the wine
-
what God's about to pour into your life, he doesn't want it to waste.
-
So he's telling you change the vessel, wake up earlier, get in
-
your word, stop talking to them, change the vessel. Don't watch that
-
no more. Delete that social media account. I had to delete a very
-
famous rapper who used to be a Christian and rapper kind of for a season
-
and has made a transition and is posting very lude pictures on their Instagram.
-
And the first thing I wake up into the morning is his wife half naked.
-
Now I could have been like, ah man, my man, going
-
through praying for him. I'm doing all of that, but to keep this
-
vessel together. Delete block And y'all know who I'm talking about, because you're
-
still following them. I'm not talking about being popular. I'm talking about being
-
pure. I'm talking about being ready as a vessel to be able to hold
-
what God has for you. And you're gonna be crying that God didn't do
-
what he said. He said, No, you wasted the wine. I
-
want this thing to be fresh, and I can't put what's new in something
-
that's old. Yeah. What if this year we got familiar with fresh pastor?
-
Mike, how do you stay fresh? Is it gratitude? Yeah?
-
How do you stay fresh? Gratitude? Gratitude is the gateway to a fresh
-
perspective. Everything in your life that you hate, act like it wasn't there,
-
and act like you never had it. You hate that house, but
-
act like God didn't come through for you so that you couldn't even have a
-
house that you hate. Right now, you could be living with your in
-
laws. I love you, Mama, Dannel, but I'm not living with
-
you. No, no, no, I'm just when you begin become thankful,
-
when you begin to become thankful for what God has already done, it
-
becomes the gateway into you actually living a life that is fresh. And the
-
truth of the matter, I came to tell everybody that God really wants to
-
do something in us this year but if our gratitude doesn't come to another level,
-
we will have the wrong perspective on what God is asking us to enjoy,
-
and we will be calling that thing something that we have to endure because
-
we have the wrong perspective. I can tell how I'm preaching right now and
-
how quiet it is in this room that y'all wish I came in here and
-
tell you this. Your fresh foot is lou new low, everything new,
-
and I came to tell you that in Christ it's fresh Psalms one hundred and
-
four. Enter his gates with and go into his courts with praise, give
-
thanks to him, and praise his name. I found it in the message
-
version. Look at this enter with the password thank you. Write this down.
-
The past code to the presence of God is thank you. Thank you
-
for this marriage. I know it's hard right now, God, and I
-
know that we're not seeing eye to guy, But thank you that you gave
-
me somebody to work on it with. Father. Thank you for these kids.
-
They look like me and they act like the devil. But Lord,
-
at this moment, I thank you that you trusted me to raise them to
-
know you. Father, Thank you for this hard situation. Thank you that
-
I found out about the diagnosis and it didn't just take me out suddenly.
-
I'm just saying I don't want it. God, thank you for this job.
-
I know it's not the fire for me, but Father, there are
-
people right now that don't have anything. Thank you for what you're teaching me
-
in this like the password to God's presence is what. Thank you. So
-
next week I'm gonna share some vision. I'm gonna pour some wine in But
-
the only people that will be able to receive it is those who don't want
-
something new. But people who are okay with stand up all over this building.
-
Please amen, Yeah, Can we just lift our hands and ask God
-
for a fresh perspective? Come on, hands lifted, God, I thank
-
you that today we don't need nothing new. Today we need a fresh word,
-
fresh vision, fresh relationships, fresh passion. God. Today we need
-
fresh wisdom. Come on, my hands lifted right there, Come on,
-
Father, right now, we need something from you, something that doesn't come
-
from new. We want you to take over and reign over. Father.
-
So today we're calling on yahweh for every person that is under the sound of
-
my voice. Father, I pray that this year would be a year of
-
fresh fruit, that everything that they produce in their life would be something Father
-
that is not old, not stale, not something from a last season,
-
but it'll be something that you will give them every single day. Father,
-
thank you for fresh fruit in relationships, fresh fruit in parenting, fresh fruit
-
and ideas, fresh fruit and knowing what you're trying to do. Father,
-
I pray that we would become, Father God, enamored with what you can
-
do with what's already there. Let us divorce culture's idea that new is better.
-
God, we commit to being new wine skins. Fresh wine skins show
-
us the areas, Father God, that we have walked away from what you
-
desire for us. And God, I thank you that everything in everybody's life
-
that is a part of their purpose will become fresh again. Fresh passion this
-
year, fresh prayer, life, fresh love, fresh joy, fresh peace,
-
fresh patience. God, come on y'all today, God, we are
-
making a decision that will use whatever you've placed in our hands. And if
-
your hands are on top of our hands and we know there's anything, there's
-
nothing that's impossible. Today. If you're in this room, I feel this
-
very strong God wants to offer you a new life by accepting Jesus Christ so
-
you can have a fresh outlook on everything. And I'm telling you this is
-
the thing that transformed my life. If you want to accept Jesus in this
-
place, any man that be in Christ, he is a new creation.
-
It's gonna give you a fresh outlook on everything. I need everybody to start
-
praying right now because there are people in here that what better thing could you
-
have at the beginning of twenty twenty four is a fresh way of living,
-
something that changes you from the inside out. If you're in here and you
-
want to accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and savior, I'm telling you
-
this is the vessel that he wants to use you. He chooses to do
-
something with you that is unlike anything else in this world. And he wants
-
to live, walk, talk, lead guide. He wants to give you
-
everything that you need to live this life successfully. If that's you, on
-
account of three, I want you to lift your hands. And this is
-
the decision that took me from being a liar, manipulator, addicted to pornography,
-
all kinds of crazy stuff, and it makes me perfect, but it
-
allowed me to become a man that's progressing. If that's you. You want
-
that in this room or watching online. I just want you to lift your
-
hand. This is a holy moment because God is a renewing somebody. Right
-
now. One, you're making the greatest decision of your life. Two,
-
I'm proud of you. But more than that, your name is going to
-
be written in the Lamb's Book of Life. Three. I see hands already
-
right there. Put your hand up. I see you, my brother.
-
I see you, my brother. I see oh, y'all. Come on,
-
Transformation Church. I see you, I see you. I see you.
-
But more than I see you, God sees you online. Hey,
-
listen, Transformation Church. You know we're a family. Nobody prays along with
-
everybody lifts their hands. Right now, Father, we thank you for who
-
you are. Off and I thank you for a fresh start today. Father,
-
I declare, and I believe that even in this place right now,
-
Father, for what you did on the cross, it gives us the ability
-
to walk in a fresh life. So I want everybody to repeat after me,
-
say God, thank you for sending Jesus just for me. Today.
-
I give you my life. I believe you lived, you died, and
-
you rose again just for me today. I want a new start, change
-
me, renew me, transform me. I'm yours in Jesus' name. I
-
will live with fresh fruit in every area of my life in Jesus' name.
-
Can we shout unto God with the voice of church. Oh, come on,
-
y'all, this is the real reason we come. Listen. If you
-
just made that decision, I want you to click the QR code on the
-
screen. If the worship team would come up. I feel there's a moment
-
that God is about to renew. Somebody's gonna run out. I know you
-
gotta go, but maybe there's just a few moments in the presence of God
-
that's gonna renew you. And I'm gonna have y'all sing y'all weigh again just
-
from that chorus. But I'm telling everybody under the sound of my voice,
-
next week changes everything. Come in here with fresh vessels, fresh vessels,
-
fresh vessels to be able to ready to receive. Father. I thank you
-
for every person that came today. Bless him is my prayer. Father.
-
I thank you that their lives would be transformed, and this week everything stale
-
and dole in their life, they would throw it away and they would only
-
work with what you are calling fresh, have your way as our prayer in
-
Jesus' name. If you need prayer for anything, we have Wednesday night prayer
-
and then we got prayer in here today. If you need prayer, the
-
altar workers are gonna come to the front. And I don't want you to
-
leave this place because some of y'all are hungering for something. I can hear
-
it, I can sense it. I don't care how much money you have
-
in the bank. Others have to go. Do not be pressured to leave
-
the present of God if you need something right now. If somebody was giving
-
away money, couldn't nobody let me leave. They couldn't make me leave.
-
And if God is giving you a fresh perspective, fresh desire, just want
-
you to raise your hands and just say y'all wait, come on, just
-
lift your hands, say y'all way, 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. Tex saved to A
