-
So yes, making up our minds is it's it's a lot harder than what
-
he's sound barking. And you know, just ask me
-
because I remember when I took Michelle to the restaurant and
-
this fancy restaurant was no years ago for our wedding
-
anniversary, I looked at that amazing menu.
-
I just making up my mind is a lot harder than itself.
-
It's like, look at this amazing choices and I'm like, how are
-
you? I've got to choose what to eat.
-
And you know, I just tried to pick and choose and we just sit
-
there and I said to Michelle, I'm like, listen, what do you
-
want to eat? And so Michelle says, no, I
-
don't know what do you want to? And I I say, well, anything
-
because I looked at this menu and it's so amazing all the menu
-
options there. And I'm like, any and I suggest
-
something to Michelle. And then she said, no, not that.
-
And then I was like, OK, well, and so it just goes back and
-
forth. I'm like, also, well, OK, just
-
tell the waiter just to give us a few more minutes.
-
So the waiter keeps on coming back and go give a few minutes.
-
We just want to order, you know, And by the time finally when we
-
decide, you know, we could have already ordered our fruit eaten,
-
hate the ball type at home and watch the boot.
-
That's how long it took us, you know, just to for me to make up
-
our minds. And so here's what I've learned
-
in life. Indecision, making our mind.
-
Indecision will keep us stuck. It will keep us stuck.
-
You know, at some point you had what to choose.
-
You got to make a decision and choose.
-
And so you got to make up your mind.
-
Now, if it's that hard in a restaurant, if it's that hard to
-
pick and choose in a restaurant between pizza and chicken, OK,
-
no wonder the enemy is trying really hard for us to make up
-
our mind about the things of dark.
-
Trying to keep us. The enemy tries to keep us in
-
between decisions, indecision when it comes to the things of
-
God. OK, now, today we're not talking
-
about racial. Watch for them.
-
Now we're talking about your destiny and so we're talking
-
about the power of a maid of Mars.
-
And I want to go a bit deeper in on this because once you decide,
-
once you lock your mind, heaven backs you, heaven clubs behind
-
you and backs you. So just your mind is more
-
powerful than you realize. It's not just store like storage
-
space for for memories. It's the steering wheel for your
-
life. So it's that direction, that's
-
the the minds. So transformation doesn't begin
-
or start when you change circumstances.
-
It started when you change the course, when you chase the
-
thinking in the mic, that's where it starts in the thinking.
-
And so the title of the message, I'm going to put it up here
-
today. The power of a made of art.
-
I mean, so I just want to release this teaching today.
-
It's more of a teaching and a preacher.
-
But I just I'm excited about this word because I believe it
-
will be about transformation. And so Are you ready for this
-
word? Somebody, somebody shot
-
Hallelujah. If you're already, I know, OK,
-
peace by the end of this message.
-
OK. We are not walking out this
-
side. We are walking out transfalls.
-
Hallelujah. Ready for transformation.
-
OK, for today is your day of transformation.
-
Somebody show transformation. Transformation.
-
OK, It's your day for transformation.
-
It should tell your neighbor this is your day for
-
transformations. Yeah, it's your day for
-
transformation. So we're going to go straight
-
into our barbels in the reverse. We all know, but the Lord's been
-
highlighting that to me and to us.
-
Today is Romans 12/2 and it said do not be conformed to this
-
world, but be transformed. How by the renewing of your wine
-
so let's just by Father, we thank you for this moment Holy
-
Spirit, come have your way when you are might change the way we
-
think we declared the day is a day of transformation being
-
Jesus mighty name somebody say Amen.
-
So the Bible tells us to be transformed and that word
-
transform is not a God just cleaning up on the outside.
-
It's a complete change from the inside out because real
-
transformation it doesn't start on the outside.
-
It starts from the inside outs, OK?
-
And so a made-up mind is powerful because when you
-
made-up your mind, your mind is made-up.
-
Hell cannot stop you. Fear cannot withhold keep you OK
-
Nothing can keep or withhold your destiny with a made-up
-
mind. Now we're going to look here at
-
the life of Daniel and Daniel in the book of Daniel, chapter one,
-
verse 8. It says there, but Daniel
-
made-up his mind, OK, Underliner made-up his mind that he would
-
not defile time, dishonor himself with the King's finest
-
food or with the wine which the king drank.
-
So Daniel, did you catch that? That the bar, He says he made-up
-
his mind. OK, so Daniel was a young man
-
and he was taken from his home and he was dropped in Babylon.
-
OK. This is in a world, a new worlds
-
that has been dropped into by the new world system, OK, so new
-
culture, it's a new language, it's new rules, OK, as a whole
-
new world. And it's new system that tried
-
to reshake Daniel's values, tried to reshape his identity
-
because that the Babylonian strategy was very, very simple.
-
It was to reshake him according to match the world.
-
Babylon is a picture of a worldly sister popularity,
-
compromise. OK, so it's a wealthy system of
-
pleasure. And the pie was simple to
-
reprogram her rude program. His mind.
-
So change his name, change his diet, change his thinking.
-
And so there was nothing left of his true identity.
-
But Daniel was one step ahead. He already had his mind made-up.
-
His mind. The boss is in mind.
-
He made-up his mind. And so that is something that we
-
must do. OK, Before the world tries to
-
conform you, OK, you have to know who you are.
-
You have to decide who you are, your identity, prize that before
-
culture tries to rename you, OK, you have to know your God-given
-
name before the pressure comes. You already have your mind
-
made-up before the trial, before the test, OK, you have to make
-
up your mind and this is what Daniel did.
-
The Bible says he already he made-up his mind.
-
So that means this is not a last minute decision not to swallow
-
the Babylonian system. This was not a last minute on
-
the spur moment decision. No, Daniel did not wait to see
-
what his friends were doing. Daniel did not wait to see what
-
everybody else was doing. Daniel already settled it, made
-
the decision already in advance. OK, before the test, before the
-
truck, before the pressure, he already made-up his mind.
-
So here's the truth. So if you don't set your
-
convictions, OK, you will be shaped by convenience with the
-
pressure result if you don't set your convictions ahead of time.
-
And so Daniel won back first. OK, It's, it's way more about
-
food. It's about conviction.
-
It's about focus. A young man, OK, with focus
-
before the precious shot, I will not conform to the Babylonian
-
sister. I will not conform.
-
I will not bend to the pressure. I will not, I'm not going to
-
blend in. I already know my identity, me
-
and who I am. And so the Bible tells us in the
-
book of Romans chapter 12, do not be conformed to the world,
Romans 12 chapter mention
-
OK, the patterns of the world, the system of the world, but be
-
transformed. So conforming is easy
-
conformity. It happens when you just go with
-
the flow. You just go with the flow, try
-
to fit in, blending with everybody what everybody's
-
doing. But transformation is a choice.
-
It happens when you seep your focus on the things of God,
-
you're on the things on God's truth when you focus your mind.
-
And so the grandest battle that you'll ever fight is not out
-
there. The greatest battle you'll ever
-
fight is in here. The battlefield is in the might.
-
It's the greatest battlefield of the might.
-
Not Alpesa. When your mind is made-up, the
-
war is already won even before it stops.
-
OK. And so one of the biggest
-
mistakes that we make is we wait until the battle to decide where
-
we stand. But then it's like the pressure
-
is high. The emotions are love.
-
Oh wow, fear is loud by they. And that's why the enemy tries
-
to plant doubt and plant destructions and fear and
-
indecision. The enemy wants to try keep the
-
church in a position of in between, in between this or in
-
between that. Why?
-
Because the the enemy knows the moment that we make up.
-
From the moment you make up your mind, the MO with a made-up
-
mind, you are unstoppable. Come on, somebody good thoughts
-
about whipper made-up mind. That is the power of a made-up
-
mind. You are unscoppable.
-
And so the enemy strategy is key, which is in between
-
decisions. Now Daniel's victory is spotted
-
in his head. OK, before he showed up in his
-
action, so a made-up mind. It just says that I am not going
-
to compromise. I'm not going to conform to the
-
system so that I am not going to water down my convictions, what
-
I believe and what I stand for just to fit in and blend in.
-
I am not willing. That's what I'm not willing to
-
compromise and to try it off my calling for comfort.
-
OK. And so here's the thing.
-
If you don't set your boundaries, if you don't set
-
your convictions, the world will set them for you.
-
If you don't set your convictions and make up your
-
mind, the world will set them. Everybody else might have
-
thought, hey, Daniel, this is just some food.
-
I mean, what's the big deal? Just some food.
-
And one of the kids wants to be, you know, let the little foxes
-
squirrel the vine. Like the little Daniel knew that
-
the little compromises leads to beat losses.
-
Little compromise is your day. And so Romans 12, Apostle Paul
-
warns US against compromise. Do not be conformed to this
-
world, to the patterns of this world, the systems of this
-
world, the way the world thinks and talk.
-
Don't be conformed. In other words, don't copy the
-
culture, Don't copy the system. Don't copy and do what everybody
-
else is doing. They come on, somebody come on.
-
Hallelujah. It's simple.
-
The transport, OK, because Daniel did not compromise.
-
Peniel. Here is my made-up God.
-
Fibery. God blessed it.
-
God gave him favour and wisdom. God promoted it because Daniel
-
honoured God. God see, I'm going to promote
-
you. And God gave an influence to
-
stand before kings and rulers. God blessed him with favour.
-
Why? Because God can trust someone
-
who has got pay my my love. Come on, what can thus someone,
-
his mind is already made-up. And so when you decide to stand
-
for God, to take a stand for God, you become a candidate for
-
God's promotion, for God's blessing.
-
I mean somebody. And so the bottom line, before
-
you change what's around, you got to change what's inside.
-
I mean, now Daniel, this is what we we need to decide like Daniel
-
and say, I will not conform. I will not compromise in my
-
values, in my convictions, in my faith.
-
And then the God who stood with tangle in Babylon will also
-
stand with you in your battle. Come on, somebody give power
-
some pie. And this is really the story of
-
my life. I mean, one of the favorite
-
songs is I I decided to follow Jesus years ago.
-
That was just one of my I had decided and I'll never forget I
-
was 19 and God touched me and I decided.
-
I made a decision. I will follow Jesus, I will
-
stand for God. And this is before I studied my
-
degree. This is before I got even
-
married and started a family. I decided I made a stand before
-
or I came to the UK before I planted a church and bring into
-
full time ministry. I've already decided before the
-
I made a decision, I made a joy. I will stand for Jesus, I will
-
follow Jesus, I will stand for God and that is still my
-
conviction today. So made-up your mind and
-
somebody say I have made-up my mind.
-
Say it again, I have made-up my mind.
-
Come on, put your eyes together. Now let me take you to 1924
-
Olympics. And so in Paris, the world's
-
gathered for the Olympics. And so there's this one name
-
everybody's talking about in 1924.
-
And this guy's name is Eric Little.
-
He's a Scottish runner, fastest awake, and everybody.
-
He's the favorite for the 100m spurt and so everybody expected
-
him to breathe back the gold medal for call for for Great
-
Britain. But they something happened.
-
News came the 100 meter strength the the hits they were scheduled
-
for a Sunday. Now, a Sunday, if for most
-
people a Sunday, is just on my store price bar first thing,
-
what? Celebrate Paddy?
-
I can use the other one. Oh, there we go.
-
We're back up. And so Sunday for most people is
-
just another day on the calendar.
-
It's just like a normal day like anybody else.
-
But not for Eric. Eric Little.
-
For him, that was the Lord's Day.
-
Sunday was a holy day for church set apart, a day for worship.
-
And so that was his conviction, that was his beliefs that we he
-
stood for. But now here comes the pressure.
-
The officials Skyped in and tried to convince him otherwise
-
and said, please, just change your mic.
-
The newspapers mocked it. You know, some of his teammates,
-
they come along, they everybody, you're crazy.
-
This is your one shop. Olympics is not every doubt.
-
OK, So every four year this is Olympic Games, this gold medal.
-
Are you crazy? But you see, airy little he had
-
already made-up his bar before the Pigs, before Paris, before
-
the fame. He had already decided this is
-
my conviction. Sunday is a holy day before God.
-
I will not run on a Sunday. That was his conviction.
-
And so he's not going to chimes like Daniel.
-
He resolved it in advance. He made the decision already.
-
He sent out that it is mine. And so he didn't give in.
-
He didn't flinch, he didn't fold, he didn't confol to the
-
wall. He said, if I have to choose
-
between a gold medal and mastery, I will choose my
-
mastery. That's a that's indecision.
-
That's his 10 diction. And So what happily pulled out
-
of the 100 meter Sprint he pulled out and instead he said
-
there's another race a lot longer race, not a spreads more
-
like a fallen mince and into a event he wasn't even known for
-
most false hawk he's done is crazy OK, but that morning of
-
the race this is amazing. This American mysteries getting
-
a little out and on that I want to show you this this scripture
-
listening big time this verse in first sung here it says yeah,
-
those who honor me I will honor OK now that afternoon Eric's in
-
the blocks. He exploded out of that blocks
-
and church. He did not just worth the
-
foreign meeting. He smashed the tide the world
-
record color samba. Oh my God, he smashed OK, he
-
honored God God honored. Hey, he spaced a brand new world
-
record, OK? He refused to bet to the
-
pressure, to the pattern of the wall, even though it was global
-
pressure, OK. His conviction, he kept strong,
-
OK. And just like Daniel, God
-
honored me. God promoted me.
-
God lifted him up. And not just in sports after the
-
Olympics, got open doors for him.
-
Yeah, Eric Little became a missionary got open doors for
-
him in China and he didn't chose fine which our souls.
-
Oh boots. Oh, Oh my God, I love that.
-
Thank you, Jesus. And so that sometimes the win is
-
not the medal. It's the stand that you take for
-
God, the true way. I won South African
-
championships portrait bitch hurdles.
-
I went from office. I had the best coach.
-
They tracked me. I once a source but bigger than
-
that is when God opened doors for me because I other guys said
-
God you are #1 more than God opened doors that doesn't it?
-
And so that is just powerful. There's every little Olympic
-
athlete missionary to China. Our gods opened a powerful door
-
for him. And it's just one of my favorite
-
verses that First Samuel chapter 230.
-
It says those who honor me, I wanna.
-
Because when you honor him, God will open doors for you.
-
God will promote you, God elevate you, He will take you
-
higher. When you honor God, he will take
-
you places you never even imagined.
-
Now, just if there's one thing that the enemy is afraid of,
-
it's not your gift, it's not your talent, it's not your
-
qualifications, It's your made-up buying kit.
-
Because that's where the breakthrough begins.
-
One decision. So what?
-
It's a made-up mind with one decision, not when you see it,
-
but when you decide it, that's breakthrough.
-
Breakthrough is one decision away.
-
You are one decision away. And that's a one moment where
-
you come and you draw the line in the sand and you say, this is
-
it. I'm going to go all in for
-
Jesus. I'm at that state so many times
-
in my life, but it started when I was, like I said, this isn't a
-
fall on for Jesus and I'm not going to compromise.
-
And that's it. It's one decision.
-
You don't need to wait for science.
-
You don't need to wait for 10 signs more.
-
This more OK because God's waiting on us.
-
God is waiting for you to make up for you need a maid of mine
-
because God's waiting on you. And that's why the moment that
-
when you make up your mind, then everything shuts OK, then heaven
-
gets behind you. Breakthrough follows a made-up
-
bite. I'll give you 2 powerful
-
examples. The prodigal son, he sits in the
-
mud, broke, hungry, smelling like the pigs that he's
-
speeding. But something happened.
-
The Bible said he came to himself and he said something
-
powerful. I will rise and I will go back
-
to my father. That's a made-up mind.
-
It's a one decision. A decision of a made-up mind.
-
Took him out of the big bed. A made-up mind.
-
One decision took it from famine to feasting.
-
Amen. Now another one.
-
Let me give you the ultimate one, because this is the
-
greatest example. And that is Jesus in Gethsemane,
-
sweating, bloods, drops of blood.
-
And there he is nowhere. And the cross before.
-
So he knows the pain, He knows the suffering, the rejection,
-
the nails. He could have changed, he could
-
have changed his mind. But he said God virtual will be
-
done. That is the ultimate made-up
-
mind before the post, before the test, the trial, the suffering,
-
he made-up his mind. But he said that's the ultimate
-
and make up mound Hallelujah. And that made-up mind, that
-
choice, that moheni, it changed not just one day, it changed
-
eternity. It broke the curse.
-
It smashed the serpent's head. It opened the door for us.
-
For salvation, I meant. And so some of you, right now,
-
you are one decision away from your breakthrough.
-
Oh, I feel the lights in like oh Hallelujah, one decision from
-
your breakthrough. One decision.
-
A decision to stop going around the same circles to circles.
-
One decision to stop listening to the lies of the the enemy has
-
been live for years. One decision can change
-
everything. I am a living testament.
-
When I was 19 I made one decision and my life has never
-
been this already. One decision can change every
-
kick thing. Come on somebody say that one
-
decision can change everything solve your neighbor.
-
One decision can change the defeat this Yeah, it's time make
-
up the one. And today, God seen me here
-
today to break off indecision of that spark, indecision of your
-
life, to break it off that voice that keeps on saying, I don't
-
know, or maybe, or maybe someday, sometime in the future,
-
I don't know. No, no, good day that that comes
-
to an end, OK? Because indecision, struggling
-
to make up your mind, it causes you to live in fog of confusion.
-
Oh, I don't know about this now. What about this now?
-
What about the OK, Should I do this or should I not?
-
Should I? Now listen, this is very
-
important because indecision makes you unstable.
-
And watch this verse in James, OK?
-
And this is a word I really feel burning in my heart and I want
-
you to get this and I want you, Brian.
-
This word is for you as well, Brian.
-
I really feel like very strongly, and I'm going to give
-
you this, this because this is what God actually showed me, a
-
double minded man. He's unstable in all his ways.
-
OK, the enemy loves it. We you stay stuck in between,
-
stuck in the maybe or stuck in the pause, stuck in the
-
indecision, you know, should I no good?
-
Should I obey God or should I what should I do those he loves
-
it when you undecide it. So the enemy loves it when you
-
stuck in maybe in between decisions and so when you stuck
-
in between decisions, the Bible says that you are unstable in
-
all your ways. It's like, I don't know, do I do
-
this? Do I do that?
-
You know when God spoke to us and said this and move to the
-
UK, I'm not even if it's not very confident God, I'm going to
-
say this God, I'm not going to be in between decisions.
-
I was in a employment, full time employment in Bristol in a great
-
job. God said resign and part the
-
church. I say yes, Lord, you see the
-
danger of indecision, like if I deny and I'm like, Oh no, I need
-
two more signs. I need more this or this or
-
that, that window of a chili P is gone.
-
That will the instability will go no way.
-
And so I came to tell you that God today is calling us out of
-
the instability. He's calling us out.
-
He's calling out of the confusion, out of that the the
-
talent, the double mindedness, the hesitation, the wavering and
-
is calling you into clarity. And there is an anointing today.
-
It's a boldness from heaven and anointing with the apology from
-
heaven to help you to make clean and clear decisions in your
-
career, in your finances, in your marriage, your church, in
-
your. This is clear decisions.
-
It's an anointing year that God has saved us today to make clear
-
decisions about family, about relationships, about our
-
children and about decisions. When God says move, then we
-
moved. I didn't even know Brackmel
-
existed. I was comfortable living in
-
Bristol. But I'm like, God's, like move,
-
get, just move. And I'm like, yes, Lord, I'm not
-
going to be indecision. When God says yes, I say yes,
-
Hallelujah. And somebody needs to do this
-
today. I've made-up my mind.
-
And there's that emoting in this place that God is Compellicus.
-
I've made-up my mind. Say that.
-
I have made-up my mind. Come on, say it with boldness.
-
I have made-up my mind. Had somebody shout Hallelujah
-
for my. I've made-up my mind.
-
Yeah, I've made-up. I'm stepping into grapefruit.
-
I'm stepping into transformation.
-
Glory to God. Because when your mind is
-
made-up, your feet will start moving in that direction.
-
Yeah. Your habits will start lining
-
up. Your body will start healing up.
-
Your emotions will start catching up.
-
I meant because real transformation, it always begins
-
with a decision. That's where real
-
transformation, it begins with a decision when you make a
-
decision. OK, Now I want to show you this
-
because if we want to live a higher love at the high level,
-
we have to think at a higher level.
-
And this is now as I have 50 finals and it says, herefore my
-
thoughts are not your faults, nor are your ways my way, says
-
the law. OK, now it's time just to go.
-
Hayek. OK, we're all good.
-
You got to go higher and not just in your faith, but in your
-
focus. It's time to go higher.
-
And so when God says my thoughts are my girl thoughts, that's not
-
a rejection, that's an invitation where this full of
-
God says come up, buyer search, come up, buyer, come up, buy
-
your thinking, the way you think, the way you see things
-
higher Heaven's perspective. Now let me take you where God
-
comes and he says, OK, this is my thoughts.
-
I want to take you higher. I want to take you out of low
-
level limited think. I want to give you a higher
-
perspective, a heaven's perspective.
-
So if you want to go higher, you have got to think higher.
-
And so we've got a line of force with higher force.
-
I'll let me give you a picture. And hot air balloon cannot rise
-
where it's still got the weights down.
-
It cannot take off. Hot air balloon cannot take off
-
still with the weights down. You know those sandbags because
-
it's still connected. So it you have to, it's got to
-
be front off. And some of you have been trying
-
to rise, trying to move forward, trying to live free.
-
But you have got to, you know, throw off the rights.
-
OK, You're still holding on to standbags, holding on to limited
-
thinking, past regrets, people's opinions.
-
And so it's time to cut the cords and to rise higher because
-
when you let go of what's been holding you back, God will lift
-
you higher. God will elevate you higher more
-
than you've ever imagined. Some of us are not stopped
-
because of surroundings. We are not stopped because of
-
circumstances, OK? You are stopped because of a
-
mindset. It's a limited mindset, OK, So
-
it's out the storm around you. It's the storm inside of you,
-
OK? So I can tell any day that if
-
you will renew your mind and get your thoughts higher, OK, you
-
will renew your altitude. Simple.
-
It's simple. It's so simple to it's so
-
simple. The guy told her this way.
-
I was 19. He started to just come my ring
-
of torch. It's one of the most profound
-
scriptures in the Bible. The renewing of the might and so
-
I need you to cast this next part because God made the mind
-
for transformation. He designed the mind for
-
transformation, OK to that, so that the mind could it grow,
-
shift and transform, OK. And this science used to tell us
-
in the part that once the brain is the fully developed, then it
-
cannot cherish, then it's fixed. But the latest research has
-
found something incredible, and this is something called
-
neuroplasticity. Dr. Caroline Reef Ali, she's
-
absolutely incredible, the research they're doing.
-
I thought something discovered about neuroplasticity, that the
-
brain has got a God-given potential to rewire, reshape and
-
renew with new faults and new patterns.
-
Isn't that good news? I mean, that is science just
-
backing up in the Bible has already been saying to thousands
-
of years where the Bible says just be renewed, OK, by
-
transformed by the unique of your mind.
-
So that means that you don't have to stay stuck.
-
You don't have to live in fear. You don't have to go along the
-
same cycles of the feet. You know if you think the same
-
way like you used to think somebody Hallelujah OK, but by
-
the Spirit of God and by his word, OK, you're freaking can
-
change Hallelujah. OK, bad betrays.
-
I can try to hear the stuff, but then we can change it gives us
-
hope. We can like this laws and
-
Ephesians 423. What power let the Spirit renew
-
your force and attitudes brand new thinking, tired of the old
-
stinking thinking about our new thinking high thinking.
-
I mean that's not self help. I mean, that's the Holy Ghost.
-
Stop. That's the Holy Ghost.
-
That's not just positive, OK? Daddy is like, listen, let the
-
Holy Spirit rewire your thoughts, rewire you from the
-
inside out. Listen, here's how it works.
-
So this is amazing, OK? Every time you feed a fault, you
-
are building something in your brain.
-
So every time you finger fault, you bully a bee, it's called a
-
needle pathway. This is scientific, we've
-
proven. And your pathway is like a
-
mantle Rd. So every time you think it's,
-
it's like you're walking on a trail.
-
Now you think it again. Now you are paving a road.
-
So you've gone from a trail to a road.
-
Now you think the fault over and again and you think the fault
-
again and again and now you start picking the fault every
-
day. A consistent strong Ford.
-
Now you've paved not just a you've paved a full boom
-
motorway with lanes with those thinking depending on how many
-
times you think the same thought over and over, you're
-
reinforcing you're building a Moto way.
-
OK, now if you keep on thinking for slide, I am not good enough.
-
I'm always going to be broke. I'm always going to struggle
-
with this. I can never win face up to the
-
if you keep up thinking, you are not just feeling discouraged,
-
you are boarding roads of the thing in your mind.
-
I want us to get this church and see the power of our minds, of
-
the thinking, what we've been thinking of, what it's creating
-
in our brains, making pathways, creating roads, when we think
-
these things over and over again.
-
But yes, the good news, Dart says that we are under
-
construction. And he says the Holy Spirit is
-
ready to break down. He shut down the roads of feared
-
and of insecurity and of shame. He's need to put some boy closes
-
on them and close those old pathways.
-
And he comes and is ready to lay down brand new motorways of Fate
-
or Fletcher in it, or Strength of Joy.
-
Come on, somebody visualize the pens.
-
Hallelujah. And it's more rewiring, the mind
-
rewiring. So when the enemy tries to send
-
you down a road, an old road of fear lies.
-
You can put a roadblock up and say, I refuse access.
-
That road is closed. And that road is shut down
-
because you have the authority to stay.
-
That road is closed. And that authority is, yeah,
-
watch this. It says 2nd Corinthians 10 verse
-
found. And we take captive every Fort
-
to make it obedient to Christ. So every Fort that comes and
-
that just shows up that doesn't line up with truth with the word
-
of God, you arrest it, you take your captive and you shut it
-
out. You've got the authority to shut
-
that 4th down, OK. And so when that four cops and
-
you think, oh, I'm not good enough, this is not going to
-
work. This is difficult.
-
I'm struggling. Nobody loves me.
-
You just cite the authority. You erase that for and you shut
-
it down. You shut that robe out very
-
quickly. And so Proverbs 23 says
-
something powerful for as he thinks it is so easy.
-
So as he thinks so he's sport. Your mind is the control tower,
-
it's the steering wheel directing your life.
-
So your most consistent thoughts, your strongest
-
thoughts, your consistent thoughts, they are shaping you.
-
So your consistent thinking thoughts, they are shaping you
-
on who you are becoming. So that's for that.
-
You're thinking now it's bombing, building, building.
-
It's shaping you. That's why the enemy fights so
-
far to get into your head. That's why the battlefield is in
-
the head, because if the enemy can influence and control the
-
forts, you can control direction.
-
So today there is a ship in the spirits.
-
The Holy Spirit is, yet he's breaking down lies and fears.
-
It's being silenced, the enemy closing down all rows.
-
Clearly confusion. So don't just let any Ford set
-
up camp in your head. No, just let it come and sit up.
-
If can't they is. If it's not from God, you just
-
shut it all. You just say listen, you're not
-
staying because here's the truth, you are wired for
-
transformation. And so it doesn't matter how
-
long you have been on the wrong Rd. you can, with the renewing
-
work of the Holy Spirit, break down and shut down the old roads
-
and you can start afresh. Isn't that amazing?
-
Get me to start afresh. Here's your BAE.
-
I wake up and as I wake up, I'm like, this is a good day, OK,
-
What have I done? I've just created a pathway.
-
Today is a good day. I wake up, I'm like, you know
-
what? Something good's going to happen
-
to me to do. You know what's up?
-
There's going to be an open door today.
-
Somebody's going to phone me today and somebody's going to
-
place me today. Some you.
-
That's what you. It's not just positive talking.
-
You get up and you're creating pathways in your brain.
-
So I call you, but we've got the anointing of the Holy Ghost.
-
This is not just I got. This is the anointing of the
-
Holy Spirit. Renewing of the mind, renewing.
-
And so you won't just change your mind, but then you change
-
the life. Yeah, that's it.
-
That's right. It starts in the head, and then
-
it will flow through your entire life.
-
It'll change the life. Are you getting this?
-
Yes. That your brain is paying
-
attention to every thought you are letting.
-
The brain is paying attention. Distort, distort every fault,
-
40,000 faults every day. That's the average faults coming
-
through. The brain pays attention to
-
every fault you're letting it and it registers it.
-
And you know what the brain does?
-
It's like a your, your other Pi, your own personal Pi, personal
-
assistant. You know, when a personal
-
assistant Pi organizes your whole life, the brain organizes
-
your whole life around those faults.
-
Here comes the fault spike. We've got to organize your
-
entire life with that fault. That's just correct.
-
If it's a strong fault, consistent fault sign fault, the
-
Pi of the brain is going to kick in straight away.
-
What do we do with all this little white rearrange this
-
person's entire love around the force.
-
It's powerful. And so that's why, what force
-
have we been feeding? Because the brain watches and
-
pays attention and notices the thoughts that you've been
-
feeding. It's going to respond to those
-
thoughts. It's going to organize your life
-
around those thoughts. It says you're Philippians 48.
-
What? Finally, brothers, it says that
-
whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right,
-
whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable,
-
if anything is excellent or praiseworthy, think about
-
subjects. What are we thinking about?
-
Because what you focus on will get bigger, will grow bigger and
-
bigger and it goes bigger then it becomes, it feels normal, OK.
-
So if you focus on fear, it will become bigger.
-
You are left carefully if you focus on, but if you focus on
-
Bart's promises, your whole life will begin to line up with
-
never. No, your brain works like social
-
media. That that's how the brain works.
-
My YouTube account. So I like to, I mean, I enjoy
-
watching sports and all that, but so my case, I love watching
-
cartoons. So they kick on the the Peppa
-
Pig with this and all of a sudden I look on my YouTube
-
account. Now this is social media.
-
All of a sudden I've got all these cartoons popping up.
-
Now why is all these cartoons popping up on my social media
-
free on by YouTube? Because of the algorithm of the
-
social media algorithm has speeds up.
-
Listen, this car wall is clicking on scores or clicking
-
on Peppa Pig. So the social media, if, if you
-
are now watching the shorts or Facebook or Instagram, whatever
-
social media it is, the altar rhythm of social media will pick
-
up what you're clicking on. And if you're clicking on sports
-
or Peppa Pig or Cards films, it will give you more of it.
-
You understand what I'm saying? The same with your mind, like
-
you're clicking on the thoughts, your brain will register, take
-
notice what you're clicking on, It will give you more of it.
-
If you focus on lies, it will feed you more lies.
-
How about somebody we can focus on gear against Gearbox?
-
It would be the wall. It works that way.
-
Like social media, if you click on in your thoughts is what you
-
are going to feed off more. So if you click on fear you'll
-
start feeling more anxiety. But if you click on truth and
-
you start picking up, then you will get more truth and
-
revelation and victory and peace and joy.
-
So those thoughts, your grain that are noticing, what is this
-
person? What are you thinking about?
-
So what you're thinking about is right.
-
The brain kicks in. We need to give you more of us
-
reinforcing it. And So what you, what you
-
rehearse is what you reinforce, what you repeat over and over
-
were you repeating in your head become you magnified.
-
So what you meditate on, meditate, keep on meditate, OK,
-
you multiply. So here's the big question.
-
What are you feeding your mind? OK?
-
Are you feeding your mind fear or faith?
-
Are you echoing what the wolves say or what the word says?
-
OK. And so because your mind is
-
paying attention, it's listening to the thoughts.
-
So before anything shifts on the outside, OK, before the
-
relationship gets better, because before the breakthrough
-
in the finances or in the family, it starts in your
-
thinking. And so your life is always
-
moving in the direction of your strongest thoughts.
-
So where's your life? So if you know, if you want a
-
different life, OK, just change your thoughts.
-
That's where your life follows your strongest, most consistent
-
thoughts because your thoughts are prophetic.
-
Yeah, your thoughts are prophetic.
-
It's shaping your tomorrow. If you put your thoughts on a
-
big, you see your faults, you're like, I want to be in five
-
years. That's where I want to be.
-
Let those thoughts get those thoughts in line where you
-
wanted this. Their faults are perfected and
-
say the lotion speed too. It says set your mind on things
-
above done on earthly face. OK, So set meets to fix, to log
-
in, to secure. And it's like think of her like
-
a jewelry, like a jewelry fixes a diner.
-
OK, and you know he presses it so tight so that it won't Boo.
-
Don't leave your mind loose. Set it on truth.
-
Set it on the promises of God. Isaiah 26 verse 3 says you will
-
keep Him in perfect peace. Whose mind is stayed on you.
-
So when your mind is focused, when your mind is stayed, it's
-
fixed. It's set, it's fixed on Jesus.
-
The Bible promises you'll have peace, victory.
-
And so as I close this message, as I bring this message,
-
transformation starts with one decision.
-
Your breakthrough starts with one decision.
-
Daniel did not wait until he delights to make up his mind.
-
He made a decision in the palace here before the test, before the
-
trial. The prodigal son did not wait
-
until he got home to change. He made a decision in the
-
pigpen. He made-up his mind in the
-
pigpen even long before he got home, before his father, before
-
the he made the decision in the pig.
-
Jesus made the decision before the cross to surrender.
-
He made-up his mind in the garden.
-
One decision in Getzema and say some of you have been waiting on
-
God, when heaven has been waiting my ear.
-
But this is your day, this is your moment.
-
Heaven's ready, Heaven's got all the resources, all the true
-
vision, all the favour, all the breakthrough.
-
Heaven is right, It's waiting for your made-up mind.
-
That's what Heaven is waiting. So walk out here today with your
-
mind made-up. When you have a mind made-up,
-
your life will never do so. Amen.
-
So let's all strange together. We'll reach you by so today's
-
Holy Ghost appointment. Some of you've been living in
-
two minds, halfway in fear, halfway in faith, halfway
-
conviction, halfway compromise. But today the line is drawn.
-
Today the decision is made. Today the anointing of Daniel is
-
rising up in this house. Daniel didn't wait for the test.
-
He didn't wait for the trial. He didn't wait for he made-up
-
his mic. And so, Church, you cannot win
-
in life with a wondering mind. OK, listen, I've learned this
-
over the years. You cannot win in life with the
-
wondering mind. A mind that is hesitant, why
-
very confused does does that? It's got to be fixed and
-
focused. The mind is powerful.
-
You cannot conquer in life with confusion, OK, with a confused
-
mind. So when your mind is made-up,
-
then hell cannot stop you. Babylon cannot change you.
-
The enemy cannot break you because your mind is made-up.
-
And God is saying if you set your mind, I will set your
-
course. God is saying if you take a
-
stand, I will fight your battle. Somebody shot Hallelujah.
-
This is a moment right now where cycles break.
-
Old rows of the money is the moment when new rows are being
-
involved. So I'm calling you today if you
-
are ready to lay down, a double minded, if you're ready to lay
-
down confusion and compromise. If you're ready to lay down,
-
then walk out of that confusion and tell the devil that you
-
cannot live in my head anymore. OK, If that is you and you say
-
yes faster, pray for me. I want you to raise your hand
-
right where you are. Don't wait, don't hesitate.
-
Lift your hands as a sign of decision that my mind is
-
made-up. So yes, lift your hands because
-
the Spirit of God is about to release a Daniel anointing in
-
this place. So open your heart and receive.
-
Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus.
-
Right now. I pray for these people.
-
Lord, every person yell at the sound of my voice.
-
Every lie we cast it down. Every stumble we pull it down.
-
Every cycle we break it. Right now.
-
We shut the door to fear. We shut the door to confusion to
-
compromise. Holy Spirit, renew minds.
-
Holy Spirit, come and transform minds today.
-
Rewire every pattern. Rewire every Ford rebuild year
-
rose. And so our thinking matches
-
heaven. And so our thinking is higher,
-
like heaven. Oh Lord, right now we will see
-
the diamond emoji. We were seeing the diamond
-
emoji. Yes, Lord, the diamond
-
anointing. No more compromise, no more
-
confusion. Let that anointing count and
-
hide the yoke. Remove the burden.
-
We will not compromise. We will not come forward.
-
We will be transformed. Immanuel, Jesus, the
-
transformation power in the screen, the power back we
-
declared in our eyes. Oh my God, somebody shining
-
underneath the blood. Jesus is singing in cheese.
-
Now let's all make a declaration.
-
I'd like to say I declare I drew the night.
-
I will not conform. I am transformed by the renewing
-
of my man. I think I have my mind belongs
-
to Jesus. Fear you cannot have my mind.
-
Repression. You cannot have my mind Take all
-
pick out of my mind. The spine, the last in G cells.
-
I'm unstoppable because my mind is made-up.
-
So did the G cell been done to praise and in love.
-
My mind is made-up. So right now, if you have never
-
given your life to Jesus, or if you have drifted or you need to
-
come back home, this is your moment.
-
Don't wait another day, don't hesitate.
-
This is a moment to make a decision to follow Jesus.
-
So that's you. If you are ready to say yes,
-
everybody right now, if there's anybody in this room, just raise
-
your hand. If you say yes, yes, I will
-
follow Jesus. Thank you.
-
I see that hand. Thank you, thank you.
-
This is a moment right now to say I follow everybody praying
-
out loud. So Jesus, I fight you to come
-
into my life to be my Lord and my Saviour as a pizza by sins,
-
by the page of wounds, stinking thinking come into my heart.
-
I give you my life falling with your storage.
-
From this day forward I will follow you and I am yours for
-
the rest of my life by my son of your son.
-
How are you? Yeah, No, you need to do thank
-
you voices. Thanks guys.
-
We're going to worship pieces. Our list praying is full for 30
-
sickers. Let's just settle that in our
-
hearts right now. What God is saying to you
-
because I believe God is speaking to hearts minds right
-
now. So God is speaking to you right
-
now. Just be here.
-
Just open your heart, receive what God is saying and praying
-
the Spirit. Thank you Lord, thank you Jesus.
-
Thank you Lord for your work. Thank you Father God that we
-
will act upon your word. We thank you Lord Jesus for a
-
new day with new minds that the minds of Christ is in the a mind
-
of the Holy Spirit, a mind of peace.
-
That's how I just pray I connect with God, speak to God, prevent
-
with him. Thank you right now for the mind
-
of Christ, for higher thoughts, peaceful force, Hallelujah.
-
Thank you Jesus, blessed be your holy name.
-
Thank you Jesus, glory be to God.
-
Thank you Lord for your prisms that brings refreshing Lord in
-
this room right now. Thank you, Jesus, that you're
-
removing presence Hallelujah from lies.
-
The spur of depression is breaking off right now.
-
The spur of suicide, that spur of what he giving up right now
-
is propping off lies right now. There was.
