Hallelujah. 29 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:54,360 Well I am super excited to be able to preach this morning and 30 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,840 man I do not take this opportunity lightly at all. 31 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,760 Great men and women have stood up here before me and delivered 32 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:08,400 anointed, powerful, life changing words, advancing the 33 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:13,280 Kingdom before me. And I just count it such a 34 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,880 privilege to be entrusted with the microphone here. 35 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,640 And so it's I got to give honor where honor is due, and that's 36 00:02:19,640 --> 00:02:24,640 to my pastors, my spiritual parents, my spiritual covering. 37 00:02:24,640 --> 00:02:27,800 That's Pastor Terence and Pastor Julia, who are the founding 38 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:33,840 pastors of love quest. They truly helped me discover 39 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:38,240 the new me. That's the KNEW me. 40 00:02:38,920 --> 00:02:44,360 That's the version of Dylan that God knew knows. 41 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:49,000 That's the version of myself that was buried under all kinds 42 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:54,680 of fear, all kinds of regret, all kinds of anxiety. 43 00:02:56,240 --> 00:03:00,400 But God sent pastors to help call the new Dylan out. 44 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,560 And so Pastor Terrence, Pastor Julie, I love you and I'm so 45 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:07,640 grateful for your lives and your covering and your faithfulness 46 00:03:07,640 --> 00:03:10,000 to the gospel. So I say thank you for 47 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,360 entrusting me with this great privilege. 48 00:03:14,640 --> 00:03:22,160 And so we were just singing worship about how we lift up the 49 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,520 name of Jesus. We were sitting a man. 50 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,400 We run back to you and we've and we fall before you. 51 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:34,480 We humble ourselves before Jesus because Jesus gave us new life, 52 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:39,920 because Jesus set us free. Jesus brought us from a low 53 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,560 place of being defeated where we were slaves to sin. 54 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:48,280 He lived a pure life so that when he shed his blood and I put 55 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,320 my faith in his blood as payments come from my sin, I 56 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:56,040 could come alive and I would no longer be separated from God the 57 00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:00,800 Father, our Creator, by sin, but I would become alive again by 58 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,560 the Spirit. And so we worship Jesus because 59 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,080 it's only by Jesus that we have new life. 60 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,760 Amen. And so this is the vein of the 61 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,480 word that I am preaching you here this morning. 62 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,440 I am echoing a word that Pastor Terence has already preached 63 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:22,840 previously, and that's this word on evolve. 64 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:29,920 Evolve speaks to becoming, becoming who you were destined 65 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,120 to be. And the butterfly is such a 66 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,600 beautiful example of something that has evolved. 67 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:42,280 When you see a butterfly fluttering through the sky is so 68 00:04:42,280 --> 00:04:45,760 beautiful. It's so colorful, it's so 69 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,360 intricate and detailed. It's so effortlessly. 70 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,880 When it is flying, it's clear to see that that butterfly is doing 71 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:54,840 exactly what it was created to do. 72 00:04:56,440 --> 00:05:03,840 And Jesus came to set us back on track. 73 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,520 That we can become the sons and daughters that we were created 74 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,800 to be. That when we walk on the earth, 75 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,920 we walk with the same beauty, the same eloquence, eloquence, 76 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:20,000 the same grace, the same ease when we are in right fellowship 77 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,760 and right standing with God the Father. 78 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:28,280 And so when we see a butterfly, this butterfly is in all of its 79 00:05:28,280 --> 00:05:34,360 glory. The word glory speaks to its 80 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,920 fullest potential. It is arrived at its fullest 81 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:43,600 potential. It is free to be who it's 82 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:47,600 created to be. But how many of you know that 83 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:49,840 the butterfly was not always free? 84 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:55,160 There was a stage in its life where it was bound in a cocoon. 85 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,320 And I know, don't go there yet, please. 86 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:03,560 I know, I know. The cocoon is, is, is a good 87 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,400 place for the butterfly to receive its nourishment and to 88 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:11,040 go through its metamorphosis to become the butterfly. 89 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,280 But for the sake of my illustration, I want you to see 90 00:06:14,280 --> 00:06:18,480 that cocoon as a place where that butterfly is stuck. 91 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,680 The cocoon is a place where that butterfly is bound. 92 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:27,720 The cocoon is a place necessary that for the butterfly to leave 93 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:33,760 behind in order to become or evolve and to be what it was 94 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:45,960 created to be. And so the cocoon within evolve. 95 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:52,320 My subtitle is called From My Kingdom to Thy Kingdom. 96 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:58,800 The Lord specifically gave me that what prevents sons and 97 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,960 daughters from evolving to be the fullest potential of who 98 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:06,360 they were created to be is they are not willing to leave My 99 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:11,920 Kingdom and enter into Thy Kingdom or they refuse to, to 100 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,800 leave behind the old and step into the new. 101 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,560 And from within our souls, we are body, soul and spirit. 102 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:23,640 Our body is fallen flesh. It has a desire to just feed its 103 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:29,600 natural cravings, which are sinful to do what we want, when 104 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,320 we want, whatever we want. But there is a spirit man inside 105 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,680 of us that desires to be one and united with God. 106 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:41,200 And it's the spirit man when we walk in the spirit man, that we 107 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:45,120 are carrying the very Kingdom of the Father, thy Kingdom. 108 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:51,480 But when we refuse to do things in thy Kingdom, and we hold fast 109 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:56,960 to my Kingdom, my cocoon. I was brought up doing what I 110 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:58,800 want. I was the boss of me. 111 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:05,640 I acquired some injuries, some hurts in my heart along the way 112 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:09,880 when I was doing things my way, when I was in relationships and 113 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,640 people broke my heart, my heart was hurt. 114 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:16,200 So I put up walls to prevent myself from getting hurt again, 115 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,560 which prevents me from loving the way that God desires me to 116 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,240 love. And so there's this wrestle 117 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:26,040 between flesh and spirit. And so I want you to see the 118 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:33,000 cocoon as a place being bound. The cocoon is the place where I 119 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:39,600 am in my flesh, but the Lord Jesus came that I may evolve to 120 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:44,920 be this butterfly, that I may evolve to be free, that I may 121 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,320 evolve to be alive again by spirit. 122 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:52,760 And the Bible says where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is 123 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,800 freedom. But in order to receive the 124 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,920 Spirit of Christ, I must die to my Kingdom and enter into thy 125 00:08:59,920 --> 00:09:02,120 Kingdom. And it's only by the blood of 126 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:08,960 Jesus that I can do so. And so these two realms, the 127 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,960 realm of the flesh and the realm of the spirit, are at war with 128 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:18,080 one another. I want you to see that the enemy 129 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:24,960 originally came to establish my Kingdom and then following the 130 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:29,280 fall of man, Jesus came to re establish thy Kingdom. 131 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:33,840 Turn to Genesis 3. This is in the very beginning of 132 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,920 the of the Bible. Now this, this is in the Garden 133 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,960 of Eden. Now the serpent was more crafty 134 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:43,200 than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. 135 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:47,400 He said to the woman, did you, did God really say you must not 136 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:51,880 eat from any tree in the garden? The woman said to the serpent, 137 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,320 We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, But God did say, 138 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,920 you must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of 139 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:03,040 the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die. 140 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:08,080 You will not certainly die, the serpent said to the woman, For 141 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:12,760 God knows that when you eat from it, your eyes will be opened, 142 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:18,320 and you will be like God, knowing good and evil. 143 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:25,760 So the enemy came and put the lie in Eve's ear, in mankind's 144 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:30,760 ear, that you can be like God, you can be your own God. 145 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:36,680 The enemy deceived mankind into turning their backs on the 146 00:10:36,680 --> 00:10:39,760 divine planet God, which is a partnership between God and 147 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:47,000 mankind, so that the mankind would set up my Kingdom, their 148 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,960 ways of doing things. And that is when sin crept in 149 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:55,840 and brought a great divide. But Jesus came to reestablish 150 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,320 thy Kingdom. He built that bridge back by his 151 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:04,120 blood, that where we were once separated, we are no longer 152 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:07,720 separated. We see that through Jesus 153 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,040 teaching us to pray. Our Father in heaven, hallowed 154 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:15,680 be your name, Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it 155 00:11:15,680 --> 00:11:20,680 is in heaven. Jesus was the manifested heart 156 00:11:20,680 --> 00:11:24,040 and will of God to reunite heaven and earth. 157 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:29,880 So Jesus came to reestablish thy Kingdom, the Kingdom. 158 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:36,360 Kingdom is a King's domain or a King's place of rulership. 159 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,480 That's what Kingdom means. It's a place that that king 160 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:43,720 rules and occupies it and exercises his lordship. 161 00:11:44,680 --> 00:11:48,480 And Jesus taught us that God's Kingdom realm is already 162 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:53,520 expanding within some of you. Another translation says, 163 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,520 behold, the Kingdom of God is within you. 164 00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:01,840 It's in your very hearts. And so the Kingdom of God is 165 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,800 within the hearts of those who have received Jesus as their 166 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:11,600 Lord and Savior. But we see in the Bible Jesus 167 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:17,120 came across a rich young ruler, and the rich young ruler says, 168 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,240 Jesus, I follow all your teachings, what more must I do 169 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,040 to enter into the Kingdom of heaven? 170 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:26,920 And Jesus says, go, sell all your belongings and follow me. 171 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:31,320 But it said that the rich young ruler walked away discouraged 172 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:36,400 because he had much wealth and he was not willing to part with 173 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:39,960 his wealth. So that rich young ruler was not 174 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,640 willing to allow Jesus to be his Lord. 175 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:50,320 He was not willing to trade his riches, which occupied a place 176 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,960 of rulership in his heart for Jesus as his ruler. 177 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:59,840 Now for some of us, it's career, for some of us it's it's love, 178 00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:05,960 it's desire to have a spouse. For some of us, it's it's 179 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:14,200 influence, whatever we meditate on the most, whatever we 180 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,160 idolize, whatever we worship, whatever we give the most weight 181 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:22,640 in our hearts, that is what is ruling our hearts. 182 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:27,680 And Jesus decide desires to be the king and ruler of our 183 00:13:27,680 --> 00:13:31,680 hearts. And so I was sent here to ask 184 00:13:31,680 --> 00:13:35,480 you this morning, who is the King of your heart? 185 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,920 This is a question you need to seriously ponder and consider 186 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,600 yourself as a follower of Christ. 187 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:49,000 The Bible teaches in Romans 10 verse nine that if you confess 188 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:53,080 Jesus says Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him 189 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,280 from the dead, that you shall be saved. 190 00:13:55,840 --> 00:14:00,120 And many of us pray this prayer and make this confession without 191 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:04,000 fully understanding the weight of the title Lord. 192 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:10,160 Lord speaks to ownership. Lord speaks to my life is no 193 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,480 longer in my hands. My life no longer belongs to me. 194 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,840 I have given it into the hands of Jesus. 195 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:21,160 And this can only be done through a revelation of the 196 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,520 goodness of God, that Jesus is for you and not against you, 197 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:29,400 that his ways are higher than my ways, that he has plans for good 198 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:35,520 for my life. And so a good way of seeing, 199 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:41,640 asking yourself who is the king of my heart is who is the main 200 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:46,000 character in my life? Are all of my worries, all of my 201 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:55,720 concerns about me? Or is Jesus the first person 202 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,560 that comes to mind when I'm making big life decisions? 203 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:05,960 When I'm asked to serve? When I'm asked to do something 204 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:10,760 out of my comfort zone, am I quick to say no that makes me 205 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:14,360 uncomfortable? Or do I ask myself, would this 206 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,600 bring glory to God and would this help serve others? 207 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:23,840 Who is the king of your heart Is Jesus Lord? 208 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,480 David was a man after God's own heart. 209 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:32,440 In Psalms 139 he cries out and prays. 210 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:36,000 Search me thoroughly, oh God, and know my heart. 211 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:38,440 He opens his heart up to the Lord. 212 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:42,680 Expose any area of me, try me and know my thoughts and see if 213 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,800 there is any wicked or hurtful way in me and lead me in the way 214 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:53,920 everlasting. My Kingdom is focused on what I 215 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:58,360 can get, while Thy Kingdom is focused on what I can give. 216 00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:04,000 And Jesus taught finances and stewardship. 217 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:07,880 Over 1/3 of his sermons in the gospels is on stewardship and 218 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:11,880 finances because he knew the risk that man ran of making an 219 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,360 idol out of possessions that they got. 220 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:18,440 This belongs to me and I'm not willing to share it. 221 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:23,360 My Kingdom is more concerned about what I can get where thy 222 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,520 Kingdom is focused on what I can give. 223 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:31,000 God so loved us that He gave Jesus that whoever would believe 224 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,440 in Him will not perish, but have eternal life. 225 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:38,320 Where to steward the many blessings that God has given us? 226 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:41,000 Where to live before God with open hands? 227 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:43,960 Everything that is good comes from the Lord. 228 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:48,200 And so I freely have received, freely I give back unto the 229 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:52,080 Lord. It keeps in a heart posture open 230 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:56,440 before God to not make idols out of everything, anything, but to 231 00:16:56,440 --> 00:17:00,480 always have Jesus on the throne of our hearts. 232 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,160 And so as if as I'm just preaching this message, you're 233 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:08,680 being stung at the heart saying, man P Dill, I am the main 234 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,119 character of my life and I want to make a change. 235 00:17:11,599 --> 00:17:14,680 I have been serving my Kingdom more than thy Kingdom. 236 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:21,000 I want to, I want to, I want to evolve beyond me and enter into 237 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,880 the great plan that God has for me. 238 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:30,200 John the Baptist and Jesus both preached repent, think 239 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:34,800 differently, change your mind, regretting your sins and your 240 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,520 conduct for the Kingdom of heaven is at hand. 241 00:17:39,120 --> 00:17:42,320 There's a prerequisite for entering into the Kingdom of 242 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,600 heaven which is at hand, and it's repent. 243 00:17:46,120 --> 00:17:49,640 Take your life out of your own hands and put it in Jesus's 244 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,840 hands. Take your eyes off yourself and 245 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:57,720 put them on Jesus to become the new you, the glorified you. 246 00:17:58,360 --> 00:18:02,840 It requires you to leave the old you behind. 247 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:09,800 A surrendered heart is united to the sun's heart, the same way 248 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,560 that the butterfly gets its energy and its wings from 249 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,600 basking in the presence of the sun. 250 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:21,640 We as spiritual sons get our energy, our power, our anointing 251 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:26,000 and being united with Jesus, First Corinthians says. 252 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:30,280 But whoever is united with the Lord is one with him in spirit. 253 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,600 Hallelujah. Romans 8 says The entire 254 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:38,760 universe is standing on tiptoe yearning to see the unveiling or 255 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:42,400 the evolving of God's glorious sons and daughters. 256 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:52,080 Why? Because heaven is open over sons 257 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:54,960 and daughters who carry thy Kingdom. 258 00:18:54,960 --> 00:19:00,760 Within this Jesus demonstrated what it looked like for a man to 259 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:06,120 walk fully united to God the Father, to walk under an open 260 00:19:06,120 --> 00:19:08,560 heaven. The Bible says that the reason 261 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:13,920 the Son of God was made manifest was to undo and destroy all the 262 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,400 works of the enemy. So I have good news for you 263 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:21,800 church, if you are feeling beat down, struck down, there is 264 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,240 nothing that the enemy has done to you that God can't do 265 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:30,800 something about today. Turn your eyes on Jesus. 266 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:35,480 Set Jesus Christ back on the throne of your heart, for He has 267 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:40,120 plans for good to prosper you and not to harm you in Jesus 268 00:19:40,120 --> 00:19:42,280 name. Well, thank you so much for your 269 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,720 time. At this point, I'm going to 270 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:48,760 invite up a mighty woman of God that's an ordained our ordained 271 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,120 teacher in the house. Effie, please give her a big 272 00:19:51,120 --> 00:20:43,800 round of applause. So I thank you, May God bless 273 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:51,720 you, may keep you, may his face shine upon you, May he be so so, 274 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:55,960 so gracious towards you and fill you with total peace as you rest 275 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,240 in him in Jesus name. Thank you so much everybody for 276 00:20:58,240 --> 00:20:59,520 coming today. I'm just so excited to be here 277 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:01,280 with you and to have the opportunity to praise with you, 278 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:05,840 to worship with you. We live in a house that 279 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:09,000 prioritizes praise, that prioritizes worship. 280 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,000 And the beautiful thing about that is it gives us the 281 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:18,400 opportunity to realign our perspective with the one, with 282 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:22,440 our Lord and Savior, with Jesus. Praise shifts our mindset. 283 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,920 Praise shifts our position and in turn it shifts our 284 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:27,920 perspective and it shifts what we see. 285 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,560 And this is so important. A few weeks ago, Pastor Terence 286 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:35,560 in the Pop Culture series, he was preaching about pupil 287 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,760 opening praise. Literally how praise is designed 288 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:44,440 to 'cause our pupils to dilate so that we can actually receive 289 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:49,000 all of what God has for us. So we can let the light in 290 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:54,120 because these are windows. And So what we allow in and to 291 00:21:54,120 --> 00:21:57,200 make home in our hearts, that's what we release because out of 292 00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,880 the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. 293 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,920 And So what I want to do is do a little spin off of people 294 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:08,200 opening praise. And my pop culture for today is 295 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:12,120 praise over perspective. So first I want to start with a 296 00:22:12,120 --> 00:22:15,400 couple of review points from Pastor Terence directly. 297 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,280 The 1st is you cannot determine what God is doing based on the 298 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:24,800 bad you are experiencing. Do not allow your circumstances 299 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:32,280 to sully your perspective. Do not allow your situations to 300 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:36,280 dilute or pollute your perception. 301 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:44,400 Too many times we allow our difficult situations to become 302 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,440 the lens that we see life through. 303 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:50,560 And that can cause us to be bitter and it can cause us to be 304 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,640 offended. And so First things first, I 305 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:57,320 want to help open your eyes to what's going on. 306 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:02,720 Do not allow your perspective to cause you to miss the new that 307 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:06,760 God is trying to bring into you. A lot of times it's actually the 308 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:11,560 trials and the testing of our faith that produces the good. 309 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:14,600 It produces the new. It produces the maturity. 310 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,440 So allow your perspective to shift. 311 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,840 Don't see your trial, don't see your thing, don't see your 312 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:24,960 challenge as a negative thing, but be like God, shift what's 313 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,760 going on in my mind and help me to see this as an opportunity to 314 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:33,280 mature, as an opportunity to grow, as an opportunity to step 315 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:36,400 into the new that you have. And if you allow your 316 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:41,320 perspective to shift, God will do a new thing in your life and 317 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,800 you will come out not only stronger as a person, but with 318 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:48,480 strong, mature faith. And if we want the Kingdom to 319 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:52,400 advance, we need to be believers that hold a strong, mature 320 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,640 faith. The Kingdom is built on mature 321 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,920 faith. And so we need to mature as a 322 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:01,520 church today. Another quote from Pastor 323 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:05,240 Terrence is God is doing something brand new in your 324 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,040 life. We have to position ourselves to 325 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,760 see it. This is the seasons to start 326 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:13,880 looking for what you have never seen before. 327 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:17,120 But if you allow offense to cloud your judgment, you can't 328 00:24:17,120 --> 00:24:19,680 see it. If you allow circumstances to 329 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:21,800 cloud your vision, you can't see it. 330 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:27,120 We have to release what was and be open to the new that God is 331 00:24:27,120 --> 00:24:30,080 doing so we can receive everything he has for us. 332 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,480 And here's a little new for you. If we are going to see the new, 333 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,640 we have to shift our perspective to the new. 334 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,200 And the word perspective is super important. 335 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,960 When you break it down, perspective per means through. 336 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:48,680 And then this base here, which is Latin but spective means to 337 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:50,600 look. So how many of you have had 338 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:53,520 glasses, have glasses, have contacts, need glasses? 339 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:59,000 A lot of us do, right? So our perspective, what God is 340 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:02,360 wanting to do is give you some new glasses today. 341 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:06,040 What if I was to, I started wearing glasses at 7 years old. 342 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:10,920 What if I was to take my little 7 year old glasses and put those 343 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,000 on and try to see with them? My eyes are drastically 344 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,560 different from back then. Not to mention those glasses now 345 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:21,120 are old. We'll just say that and they're 346 00:25:21,120 --> 00:25:24,040 scratched. I had broken them at one point. 347 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:28,120 If I'm trying to put on the old to see the new, I won't be able 348 00:25:28,120 --> 00:25:30,240 to see it. My vision is blurry. 349 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:32,240 There are scratches blocking my way. 350 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,880 My perspective cannot come through. 351 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:40,280 I need to get a new perspective so I can look through my new 352 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:44,800 God-given lenses and see clearly the new that's before me. 353 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:49,240 I need to allow God to give me a new prescription so that I can 354 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:54,440 perceive everything that He is doing ahead of me and I can then 355 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,320 walk into it. But we have to be aware of what 356 00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:02,000 we look through. Our perspective is the lens that 357 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:05,440 we see our world through, and we have to see that thing 358 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,600 transformed so that we can see accurately. 359 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:13,600 Isaiah 43 verse 18 to 19 says, Do not earnestly remember the 360 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:17,760 former things, those old things, those old glasses, neither 361 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:22,400 consider the things of old. Behold, I'm doing a new thing 362 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:26,320 now it springs forth. Do you not perceive it? 363 00:26:27,120 --> 00:26:29,000 Do you not see what's in front of you? 364 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,640 Do not see the new I'm doing. Whoa. 365 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,920 It springs forth. Perceive and know it. 366 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:41,240 Will you not give heed to it? Will you not give me the 367 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:44,400 attention I deserve? If you quit focusing on the 368 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,480 things that are before you, on your problems, on your 369 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:51,040 circumstances, on your little situations, if you would just 370 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:55,240 lay those things down and put on my vision and see what I'm doing 371 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,960 for you, you'd be able to stand up in a new way. 372 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,880 You would get a new fight. You will get everything that you 373 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,400 need. But we need to lay down what was 374 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:08,120 before and we need to pick up and put on his eyes for us so we 375 00:27:08,120 --> 00:27:11,360 can see what is coming. Lay it down today, church. 376 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:15,280 Lay down what was. No longer will we pick up what 377 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:18,440 was and try to put it on and see it's ineffective. 378 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:23,280 Today is the day that we mature as the body and we put on God's 379 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:29,680 eyes, we put on his vision and we allow him to renew our sight 380 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:36,680 so that we can be transformed because he will even make a way 381 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:43,320 in the wilderness and rivers in your desert. 382 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,760 Where are you dry? Where do you feel lost? 383 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,520 Where are you wandering? My God, if you would just put on 384 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:54,320 his eyes for you, He's making ways and the ways aren't just 385 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,640 clear paths. There's water with it, there's 386 00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,240 thirst quenching power that comes with it. 387 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:04,520 So take a drink, a deep drink of the well that God is springing 388 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:08,120 in front of you. Take hold of what He has for you 389 00:28:08,120 --> 00:28:10,480 today. Church, there is new coming for 390 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,040 you. New is coming for you today. 391 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:17,520 God is trying to expose your perspective. 392 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:22,320 He's trying to expose the things that are not of Him and do not 393 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:25,840 serve you anymore. Quit holding on to them. 394 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:30,000 Let it go because your perspective determines your 395 00:28:30,120 --> 00:28:35,440 perception and your perception, it takes dependence. 396 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:40,720 If you're going to perceive what God has for you, you have to 397 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:44,040 depend on him because he's the only one who can reveal it to 398 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,760 you. If you're not willing to step 399 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,360 into the fullness of what he has for you, if you're not willing 400 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:52,480 to lay down your own stuff and be like, you know what, God, I 401 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:57,760 actually just can't. I actually, I actually just 402 00:28:57,760 --> 00:28:59,800 can't do this on my own. And you know what? 403 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:03,080 I don't get it? I don't see right now. 404 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:06,720 And you realize that you're blind without him. 405 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:11,760 Oh, Church, that you would just allow him to give you his 406 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:22,080 vision, allow him to give you His sight, would transform 407 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:25,800 everything around you from the way you see yourself to your 408 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,480 circumstances. Your perception takes dependence 409 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:34,240 on him and your perception. It takes focus and vision. 410 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:40,760 We need clarity in order to be able to move forward in our life 411 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:45,240 and what we perceive determines what we can receive. 412 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:50,480 Even in this room right now, if your perception is out of 413 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,480 alignment, you can't actually receive what the Holy Spirit is 414 00:29:53,480 --> 00:30:04,920 trying to say to you. We need His sight for us so that 415 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:07,960 we can receive everything He has for us. 416 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,440 And this is super key, the word perceive. 417 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,360 When you break it down, it means to take entirely. 418 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:22,120 And so back to Isaiah 43 verse 19, he says, don't you perceive 419 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:25,680 it? Won't you take it entirely? 420 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:31,480 Won't you heed what I'm doing? Open your eyes to the new and 421 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:38,640 receive it completely. And then the word receive means 422 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,200 to take back. And this is the beautiful thing 423 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:44,080 about our God. We don't have to look back 424 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,880 because when we perceive what he's doing, we can receive all 425 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,600 he has for us and he takes it back for us. 426 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,120 So everything that was lost in the past, he's taken it back. 427 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:58,360 Everything that was done to us, he's he's already gone and he's 428 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:01,040 taking revenge for us. We don't have to worry about 429 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:02,760 that because the victory is in him. 430 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,680 Everything that was lost, everything that was stolen, 431 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,560 everything that we left behind, everything that we laid down. 432 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:12,960 Do you not perceive that? As you perceive and step into 433 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:16,880 everything He has, you get to receive all that He has for you, 434 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:21,000 all that He has for you. Because when we perceive the new 435 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:26,040 that God is doing and obediently let go of the old, we receive 436 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:33,080 all of what He has for us. What was, is, and is to come. 437 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:37,960 That's who my God is. So don't worry about what was 438 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:40,840 God's doing it. Don't worry about what is right 439 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,600 now God's doing it. Don't worry about what's to 440 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:44,920 come. God's doing it. 441 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,520 Perceive and receive all that he has for you today. 442 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:58,000 Church woo. And then Isaiah 43 verse 20, he 443 00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,760 reminds us, I will give waters in the wilderness and rivers in 444 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:04,800 the desert to give drink to my people, my chosen. 445 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:09,000 That's us. We're His people, we're his 446 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:12,200 chosen. Why would he show us stuff if he 447 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:16,000 does? If we aren't his, we're his 448 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:19,280 chosen. His set apart the people I 449 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:24,880 formed for myself, that they may set forth my praise. 450 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:31,400 This is the reason for our existence is to praise the 451 00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:36,560 living God and our perception. It should move us to praise, 452 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:40,520 which will transform our perception, which will move us 453 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:44,400 to praise, which will transform our perception, which will move 454 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:47,200 us to praise, which will transform our perception, which 455 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:50,240 will move us to praise, which will transform our perception. 456 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,960 Every time we praise, things change because what ends up 457 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:56,160 happening is praise is the Word of God. 458 00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,280 And when we allow the Word of God to come and infiltrate our 459 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:02,120 mind, will we allow it to be the thing that we meditate on? 460 00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:04,560 Because that's praise and worship is what we meditate. 461 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,400 When we allow it to be the thing that we think about and repeat 462 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:10,880 over and over and over again, our mind is literally 463 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:15,440 transformed. Neural pathways are recreated, 464 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,960 like God actually physically transforms our mind. 465 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,720 And in that we get mental health. 466 00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:27,640 In that we gain peace. In that, we gain greater faith. 467 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,840 That's why he says everything you need is in my presence 468 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:35,280 because I'm literally doing a new thing down to your biology. 469 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:40,960 I am transforming the inner workings of your mind. 470 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:46,280 That's what praise does. And so we need to take whatever 471 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:50,960 janky old perspective that we had and put it under praise, put 472 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:55,160 it under the word of the Lord, put it under under joy, put it 473 00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:59,440 under peace, put it under love, put it under everything God is. 474 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:04,120 Because when we do that, everything changes. 475 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:09,600 And when our life starts to change, what we say starts to 476 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:13,080 change, how we walk starts to change, how we talk starts to 477 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:14,800 change. And you know what that means? 478 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:21,480 The people around us, they start to change because each one of us 479 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:27,000 are a drop in this giant pool that we call world population. 480 00:34:27,199 --> 00:34:30,000 But every drop has a ripple effect and it goes out and it 481 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:32,800 hits the others, which hits others, which hits others, which 482 00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:36,280 hits others. Imagine and sound moves in the 483 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,880 same way sound moves in waves. So every time word is released, 484 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:41,679 the waves go out and it hits somebody. 485 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:45,360 Right now the only reason you're hearing is because a sound wave 486 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:49,360 has gone out and it's actually physically hit and impacted your 487 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:52,560 eardrum and caused it to vibrate, which then translates 488 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,920 to your brain and you are able to figure out what I'm saying. 489 00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:04,880 Our words have physical impact, transformational impact, and 490 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:09,320 that is the power of praise. That is the power of worship, 491 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,800 worship and praise. And the Word of God being 492 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:16,000 released leaves a physical impact on our physical bodies 493 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:19,120 that causes physical transformation and physical 494 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:23,520 healing and manifestation of the glory of God and the Kingdom of 495 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:27,080 heaven here on earth. And so my invitation to you 496 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:30,840 today is to put your own perspective under your feet and 497 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,800 put a praise on it. Put a praise on it like you have 498 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,200 never praised before. And it doesn't have to be in 499 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:38,000 church. We aren't going to sing a song 500 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:39,720 right now. But what I want you to do is 501 00:35:39,720 --> 00:35:41,880 even in your own mind, when thoughts come up, you're like, 502 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:44,040 Nope, Lord, I'm putting a praise on it. 503 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:46,560 God, I glorify you. God, I praise you. 504 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:50,520 God, I thank you. God, I've graced, I have 505 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:54,000 gratitude towards you. Whatever it is, I'm going to put 506 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:58,160 that old thing under my feet and put the Word of God on it so 507 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:01,680 that my perspective will completely transform. 508 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:06,400 Our perception should move us to praise, and this is a cycle that 509 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,760 should never be broken because this is the kind of cycle that 510 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:13,760 you put in place when you're breaking cycles and old 511 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:16,800 bloodlines that the enemy has put in your bloodline before. 512 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:20,920 You can't just break something off and hope nothing will come. 513 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:26,960 But the Word says you can cast out a spirit, but if you don't 514 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:31,400 replace it with something, it'll come back seven times stronger. 515 00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:36,800 So we have to understand when we break cycles in our life, when 516 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:38,920 we break off things in our bloodline, we have to put a 517 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,040 praise on it. When we break our old 518 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:44,200 perceptions, we have to put a praise on it because that is our 519 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:47,080 weapon in how we wage war. That is how we move forward. 520 00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:49,800 That is how we will advance the Kingdom is through praise. 521 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:54,880 Praise is what keeps us. Praise is what transforms us. 522 00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:01,000 We do not have time to look back any longer. 523 00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:06,360 The world behind the cross before and I won't turn back. 524 00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:09,520 Say that with me. Say the world behind the cross 525 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:16,360 before and I won't turn back. In Jesus name, help me. 526 00:37:16,360 --> 00:38:00,040 Welcome up, Elder John. But at this point, if you've 527 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:05,160 watched all of these things, you may ask yourself, these people, 528 00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:07,640 everybody who get up there, they'd be like, thank you 529 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:09,040 Pastor. Thank you Pastor. 530 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,280 Effie then spoke three times. She's still saying thank you, 531 00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:13,480 pastor each time. Elder John spoke 8 times. 532 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:15,320 You say thank you, pastor, every time. 533 00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:17,240 Let me talk about that a little bit. 534 00:38:17,240 --> 00:38:18,760 This ain't my time. Let me talk about that. 535 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:26,880 First off, we're we're we're a House of honor in a nation and 536 00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:31,840 the culture that knows nothing that knows baby, the only honor 537 00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:35,040 is the honor do unto themselves. So we're trying to change 538 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:38,000 culture number one. Number two, somebody came in 539 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,520 today for the first time. We sang the song, we pointed, we 540 00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:42,960 did the you. That's my part. 541 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:45,520 That and the falsetto falsetto get some every time. 542 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,160 I'm just saying right, we did that. 543 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:51,080 So it's the first time they hearing us speak. 544 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:55,640 So for them, it's a first time saying here and a thank you for 545 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,920 some people who've never known what a pastor is, the gratitude 546 00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:00,960 we show for our pastors helps them understand. 547 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:05,200 Maybe a pastor is something I need if that if that's if that 548 00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:07,280 what is what it does. I see the gratitude. 549 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:09,840 Maybe there's something about that, but also too, it 550 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:13,200 contributes to what I'm talking about regarding momentum. 551 00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:18,360 OK, honor helps maximize momentum. 552 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:25,840 The Bible says this, that the angels cried holy honor, then 553 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:29,320 the other Angel began to cry holy honor, then the other Angel 554 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,960 be crying cried holy honor, and the other Angel be cried holy 555 00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:34,800 honor. And they continued honoring God 556 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:39,760 back and forth to the praise of His glory continually at new 557 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:43,600 revelations of who God is. One of the things that keeps 558 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:50,120 momentum in your life is honor. So for us, the privilege to give 559 00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:54,880 honor is important as a house, as a culture, because it helps 560 00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:58,480 keep our momentum and keep our recognition of who God has 561 00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:03,360 established in our presence. And we just thank God that we 562 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:07,840 got past as worthy of honor, past as worthy of respect, past 563 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:11,000 as worthy of what recognizing what they've laid down to do in 564 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,760 our lives. And I just wanted to give some 565 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,800 prophetic context to that for those that here. 566 00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:23,080 Amen. Now is my time. 567 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:28,240 Thank you. So I began this morning. 568 00:40:28,240 --> 00:40:29,960 I encourage you to go take a look at the message this 569 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:31,160 morning. I'm not going to repeat all of 570 00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:33,200 that. Talking about maximizing 571 00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:36,320 momentum, the question came after 24 hours of prayer on a 572 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:37,960 Saturday and a whole week of prayer. 573 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:41,920 How do you keep the momentum of praying? 574 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:45,800 And so one of the things we talked about this morning is 575 00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:49,040 momentum needs to be kept. Why 24 hours of prayer? 576 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:52,720 We have maybe 30 people here at sometimes even at 2:00 in the 577 00:40:52,720 --> 00:40:56,320 morning, 3:00 in the morning, 30 people here sinking loud, 30 578 00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:58,520 people. The next time we gather for 579 00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:02,760 prayer, which is last Saturday, we maybe had five or seven, 580 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:06,040 right? So people need to know how to 581 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:09,800 keep the momentum in terms of what God is doing. 582 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:11,680 Amen. Now, I want to tell you this, 583 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:13,680 even star players got to be coachable. 584 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:15,560 It's not a condemnation. That's the coaching point, 585 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:18,440 right? If you feel condemned, that's 586 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:19,960 you. If you feel convicted, that's 587 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,360 God. If you feel challenged, that's 588 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:26,320 the that's the anointing on the House to encourage us to grow 589 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:27,960 more. So I said a few things about 590 00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,960 what the momentum is to set up a context for today. 591 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:32,760 So I'm going to hit on those just a little bit. 592 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:37,840 One, momentum cannot be conserved or preserved, right? 593 00:41:38,240 --> 00:41:39,760 It's something that goes or comes. 594 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:43,040 You can't hold it. If you keep it a status quo, you 595 00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:46,200 will lose momentum because things in life, gravity pulls 596 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:47,840 down. What are those things? 597 00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:49,960 Familiarity. What are those things? 598 00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:51,880 Commonness. What are those things? 599 00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:53,560 Busyness. What are those things? 600 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:55,240 The flesh as was talked about What? 601 00:41:55,240 --> 00:41:57,760 What are those things that keep you weighed down? 602 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:01,880 So momentum cannot be conserved or preserved on its own. 603 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:03,440 It can only increase or decrease. 604 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:06,440 It only goes up or down. You have to do something with 605 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:07,960 it. If you left to its own, it will 606 00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:10,160 fizzle out. It also follows a pattern of 607 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:13,080 load and release. The many times momentum requires 608 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:16,400 you to do this in order to go forward, right? 609 00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:18,400 To get momentum. You come back, you load and you 610 00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:20,360 release. You don't go backwards, you 611 00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:22,560 load. It's different like what F was 612 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:24,840 talking about. You don't look back, but you 613 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:27,400 remember what God is doing, right? 614 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,880 And so you load and that's kind of the cycle She was talking 615 00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:33,840 about the praise and perception. You begin to come back and you 616 00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:36,320 praise, you get momentum to see something new. 617 00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:41,720 So involves load and release. Load and release. 618 00:42:42,240 --> 00:42:46,040 Everyone say load and release. It's designed to overcome 619 00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:47,000 inertia. What's inertia? 620 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:50,360 It's being stuck right now. Inertia has me stuck here. 621 00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:55,160 OK, Momentum comes to help move you from stuckness to movement, 622 00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:59,360 and the power it takes to move you from stuckness is far 623 00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:02,280 greater than the power it takes to keep you moving. 624 00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,520 Better. Said another way, it's harder to 625 00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:07,040 get you to move than it is to keep you moving. 626 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:10,040 That's why it's important to understand how to maintain and 627 00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:13,040 maximize momentum. Because if you let it go out, 628 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,600 you'll find yourself at a standstill, stuck. 629 00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:17,720 Now you need even more to get unstuck again. 630 00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:22,480 So we talked a little bit about about that and we said it's a 631 00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:24,320 tool for breakthrough, not an end goal. 632 00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:27,720 The purpose of momentum is to give you power to overcome 633 00:43:27,720 --> 00:43:31,400 something, to breakthrough a barrier, breakthrough a wall, or 634 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:34,760 to overcome a situation. It's an earth tool, not a heaven 635 00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:37,360 tool. And the reason, and this is my, 636 00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:41,680 my take on this, the reason I suggest it is, is because 637 00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:47,000 momentum has direction, OK? It has direction to it and it 638 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,840 has a beginning to it. And anything that has a 639 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,200 beginning to it is an earth thing. 640 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:56,040 Heaven is run by God who has no beginning and no end. 641 00:43:56,240 --> 00:43:57,880 His peace has no beginning, no end. 642 00:43:57,920 --> 00:43:59,480 His love has no beginning and no end. 643 00:43:59,920 --> 00:44:02,480 So momentum is not something I think we're going to be using in 644 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:04,000 heaven. We're just going to be 645 00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:07,600 constantly, as if he was talking about constantly in this place 646 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:10,680 of praising and worshiping, frictionless without being 647 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:13,480 weighed down by anything. We'll be able to continue praise 648 00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:15,960 night and day because there's nothing pulling us back, nothing 649 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:19,440 holding us down South. Momentum is a earth thing, so 650 00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:21,200 let's use it. It's a tool. 651 00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:24,040 Let's figure out a way to make the most of it for us, right? 652 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:29,040 So I want to go today's afternoon's time and say there's 653 00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:31,640 12 keys to maintain, you know, maximizing momentum. 654 00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:35,120 Everyone say 12 keys. We got a lot of keys around 655 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:38,480 here, right? Today's, today's culture calls 656 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:41,360 them cheat codes. You got a cheat code. 657 00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:46,360 OK, some things are, are are are heuristic, something that's a 658 00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:49,480 key, something that's easy to remember, something to focus you 659 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,760 as you move forward. So the 12 keys I have for Max, 660 00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:57,000 Max maintaining or maximizing momentum, The first key is to 661 00:44:57,440 --> 00:45:02,160 ask the Lord, I want to maintain momentum from that prayer time 662 00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:05,120 on, on Saturday, 24 hours. The 1st way you learn to 663 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,400 maximize or maintain momentum and say, Lord, how do I maintain 664 00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:11,800 momentum in this? Because the Lord knows what you 665 00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:15,920 need to do to be at or how you need to respond to maintain the 666 00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:18,320 momentum that you need. What is needed for her to 667 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:20,280 maintain be be different than what's needed for him to 668 00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:24,840 maintain. And the Lord knows and sometimes 669 00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:27,520 the Lord says it's a you need to ask me these three questions. 670 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,040 Sometimes it's not an action, it's a question because your 671 00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:33,800 question sparks desire. Desire, as was talked about 672 00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:35,560 earlier, leads to further questions. 673 00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:38,640 Questions leads God's to uncovering himself and show what 674 00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:40,800 she got that question. Let me show you who I am in that 675 00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:42,920 area, OK? Ask the Lord. 676 00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:46,520 Everyone say ask the Lord. That's always a good first step 677 00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:47,760 in anything. Just about it anyway. 678 00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:51,440 Just don't want to let you know #2 target something bigger than 679 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:53,960 you. So for the rest of the time, I 680 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:56,520 want to reference First Samuel 17. 681 00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:59,880 I'll ask to go to some scripture sometimes, or I just speak from 682 00:45:59,880 --> 00:46:01,800 them. I'm giving you the chapter so 683 00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:06,640 you can study on your own. First Samuel 17 one, it's the 684 00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:11,120 story about David and Goliath. So first Samuel 17 chapter verse 685 00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:15,960 four says this. Then a champion from Gath called 686 00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:18,960 Goliath stood up. Goliath was bigger than 687 00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:21,360 everybody. How many of y'all think you got 688 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:23,680 a big head in here? I got a big head when I was 689 00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:27,680 graduating from 12th grade. The cap and gown company, they 690 00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:30,840 had to go back and send for the extra wide for my head. 691 00:46:31,720 --> 00:46:36,280 OK, that's a fact. So Goliath was bigger. 692 00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:40,120 The glass represent it more than just the size of a man. 693 00:46:40,240 --> 00:46:43,720 You represent a a an embarrassment of of the people 694 00:46:43,720 --> 00:46:47,600 of God and the Kingdom. It was Kingdom fights, not just 695 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:50,600 army fights. One of the ways you maximize or 696 00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:54,280 increase momentum is target something bigger than you. 697 00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:56,400 It will keep you asking questions. 698 00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:59,680 It would keep you out of your comfort zone when you are only 699 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:01,440 dealing with issues that are small. 700 00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:03,960 As you it is easier to lose your momentum. 701 00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:09,240 I don't need momentum to do base to brush my teeth, but I do need 702 00:47:09,240 --> 00:47:12,320 momentum to figure out how to give good dentistry to the 703 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:14,360 poorest nations in the world. That's bigger than me. 704 00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:18,240 I can't do that on my own. OK, so target something bigger 705 00:47:18,240 --> 00:47:21,480 than you. Remember what's at stake for 706 00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:24,120 you. Everyone say, remember what's at 707 00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:29,160 stake. David said this the men of 708 00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:32,040 Israel, this is first Samuel 17, verse 25. 709 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:35,280 The men of Israel said, have you seen this man who's coming up? 710 00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:37,880 Surely he's coming up to defy Israel. 711 00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:41,240 The king will reward the man who kills them with great riches and 712 00:47:41,240 --> 00:47:43,680 will give him his daughter in marriage and make his father's 713 00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:47,160 house free from taxes and service in Israel. 714 00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:50,000 Then David spoke to the man who was standing by him. 715 00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:52,520 What will be done for the man who kills this Philistine and 716 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:56,280 removes the disgrace of his taunting from Israel? 717 00:47:56,800 --> 00:47:59,640 For who is this uncircumcised Philistine that he has taunted 718 00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:01,680 and defied the armies of the living God? 719 00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:05,080 The men told him this is what will be done for the man who 720 00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:07,240 kills them. When you know what's in it for 721 00:48:07,240 --> 00:48:09,440 you, helps keep you motivated, helps keep your momentum. 722 00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:13,080 If you don't think there's nothing in it for you, your 723 00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:16,800 momentum dies. If you don't think coming to 724 00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:20,040 prayer on Saturday is going to do something for you, it's easy 725 00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:22,240 to fill your calendar with other stuff, including sleep. 726 00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:25,800 If you don't think this, this remnant project we're doing in 727 00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:28,240 this place over here, it's not going to do something for you. 728 00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:31,960 It's easy to fall asleep on it. If you think there's nothing in 729 00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:34,840 it for you, then it's harder to maintain your momentum. 730 00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:38,120 But when you know there's something in it for you, however 731 00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:42,000 you define you, whether it's me individually, my generation, my 732 00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:46,160 bloodline, my family, there's got to be something in it for 733 00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:47,160 you. And I encourage you to 734 00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:50,320 investigate those things that helps maintain momentum, 735 00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:59,280 Redeclare the past victories. David goes on to say this to 736 00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:02,640 Saul. Killed the lion, killed the 737 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:05,600 bear. He rehearsed the past victories 738 00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:07,400 to give him momentum for the fight ahead. 739 00:49:08,560 --> 00:49:10,560 OK. But then only you have to 740 00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:12,800 rehearse the past victories. That's one thing. 741 00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:18,280 But you also have to rehearse redeclare. 742 00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:20,800 When I rehearse, I would say redeclare, redeclare the past 743 00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:23,600 victories. You also have to redeclare the 744 00:49:23,640 --> 00:49:27,560 God of the past victories. It's one thing to say the lion 745 00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:29,960 and the bear. It's something else to say the 746 00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:33,000 God who gave them to me is the same God going to give me you. 747 00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:38,200 That's different. Your victory goes old, God bless 748 00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:41,120 me with the car. The car dies, the car gets old, 749 00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:43,840 it depreciates. But the God who provided for me 750 00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:47,280 in my need to go where I needed to go, that same God is going to 751 00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:49,400 keep me going wherever else I need to go. 752 00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:52,280 The God of your victory never dies. 753 00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:56,040 So you got to redeclare, redeclare, that redeclare. 754 00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:58,880 You got to open your mouth and say some things. 755 00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:03,760 Praise perception we were talking about and that 24 hours 756 00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:07,120 of prayer put it practical. There were some topics we went 757 00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:11,680 over during that time of prayer. First slide of topics begins 758 00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:18,120 with return. So let's make it practical. 759 00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:20,600 How do I build momentum out of 24 hours of prayer? 760 00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:24,360 You load up. God, I thank you that we did 761 00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:27,320 return. I thank you that we did cry out 762 00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:29,560 to you. I thank you God, I have no more 763 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:31,800 excuses. I thank you, God that I am 764 00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:33,280 excelling. I thank you. 765 00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:36,920 I'm loading for that momentum. Now that's loading on the 766 00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:39,080 victory. Now that's practice loading on 767 00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:41,720 the God of the victory. I thank you that the God who 768 00:50:41,720 --> 00:50:44,600 excelled me is excelling everyone else that I know. 769 00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:48,520 The God who excelled me in that 24 hours is excelling My city to 770 00:50:48,520 --> 00:50:52,360 salvation is excelling my family to deliverance is excelling this 771 00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:56,080 church to unity. The God who did that for me on 772 00:50:56,080 --> 00:50:59,000 that 24 hours, The God opened my eyes in that 24 hours. 773 00:50:59,800 --> 00:51:03,320 I'll get it. So you know a lot of topics, you 774 00:51:03,320 --> 00:51:06,360 got to remember what was done. You got to remember your 775 00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:12,920 identity as well. David says to Saul, Saul, I 776 00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:16,080 can't fight your armor, bro. It's not going to work. 777 00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:21,200 I got to be who I am. So how do you keep momentum in 778 00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:23,920 prayer being you don't try to pray like me. 779 00:51:24,720 --> 00:51:27,680 Pray like you. Pray from your life, pray from 780 00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:31,360 your testimony, pray from what God's done in your own life. 781 00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:33,840 You don't have to be loud like me. 782 00:51:34,720 --> 00:51:36,840 The Godfather. The godfather said this. 783 00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:39,160 I'm gonna make your offer. I could not refuse. 784 00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:43,200 He was quiet, but he was bold. Bold can be loud. 785 00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:47,200 Bold can be soft, but be bold. And whatever you are in how you 786 00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:51,520 pray, Amen. Remember your idea to simplify 787 00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:55,560 your focus. Davis said I'm going to get fire 788 00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:57,240 stones. That's all I need, fire stones. 789 00:51:57,680 --> 00:51:59,160 And out of that five, I'm going to get one. 790 00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:02,920 How do you keep momentum from praying 24 hours? 791 00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:06,840 God, we prayed about one thing from the 24 hours. 792 00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:10,840 I'm going to focus on that for the next two weeks. 793 00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,600 I'm going to simplify my focus. I'm not going to trade or get 794 00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:16,000 momentum from everything we prayed about in the 24 hours. 795 00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:19,160 I'm going to pick one thing and I'm going to focus on that. 796 00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:23,000 Focus on thanking you for that. Focus on remembering the God who 797 00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:25,120 did it for me is the God's doing it for someone else. 798 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:27,960 I'm going to focus. Simplify your focus. 799 00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:33,320 Boldly declare the God you knew into your now. 800 00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:39,360 Boldly declare the God you knew into your now. 801 00:52:40,240 --> 00:52:44,720 So David talked to Saul and said, Lion and the bear. 802 00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:47,640 The God would deliver me from this one too. 803 00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:52,920 But then he went and began to talk to the Philistine, and this 804 00:52:52,920 --> 00:53:03,200 is what he said. Verse 20, verse 45, put that one 805 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:07,840 up. This is what he said. 806 00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:10,880 He, he, he declared, boldly declared to God he knew into 807 00:53:10,880 --> 00:53:13,560 his. Now he gave the testimony to 808 00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:15,600 Saul. But now I'm facing Goliath. 809 00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:19,680 And then David said to the Philistine, You come at me with 810 00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:23,720 a sword and a spear and a javelin, but I come to you in 811 00:53:23,720 --> 00:53:27,120 the name of the Lord of hosts whom you have defied. 812 00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:31,240 And this day the Lord will deliver you into my hand, and I 813 00:53:31,240 --> 00:53:34,960 will smite you and cut off, cut you off from the earth. 814 00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:37,040 And I will smite you, cut off your head. 815 00:53:37,240 --> 00:53:40,640 And I will give the corpses of the army of the Philistines this 816 00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:43,720 day to the birds of the air and the wild beasts of the earth, 817 00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:49,160 that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. 818 00:53:49,720 --> 00:53:53,720 Boldly declare the God that you knew into your right now He 819 00:53:53,720 --> 00:53:56,680 bolded up to stretch forth in confidence and in prayer that 820 00:53:56,680 --> 00:53:59,480 God's going to do and B who he said he was going to do. 821 00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:03,680 And B you got to advance with urgency. 822 00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:06,360 Scripture says David ran towards Goliath. 823 00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:10,720 He didn't back up and once he ran it through the through the 824 00:54:10,720 --> 00:54:13,960 rock and he was down, he ran to get over them. 825 00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:16,480 So you got to advance with urgency, but you also got to 826 00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:20,480 continue with urgency. And as you do, you reach a place 827 00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:23,640 of rest. The scripture says David stood 828 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:28,760 over Goliath, and it's in that place of rest. 829 00:54:29,720 --> 00:54:34,360 And in victory, he took the sword, cut off his head. 830 00:54:36,200 --> 00:54:40,400 Declaring your victory transfers the momentum to others. 831 00:54:41,520 --> 00:54:43,880 Declaring the victory of what was won through 24 hours of 832 00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:46,760 prayer will transfer momentum to others. 833 00:54:46,880 --> 00:54:49,640 Hey, Mark, guess what God did for me in 24 hours of prayer? 834 00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:51,440 Guess what he said? Guess what he moved? 835 00:54:51,520 --> 00:54:53,760 Guess how he blessed? Guess how my family's changed 836 00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:56,440 because how the church is going now he's getting the momentum. 837 00:54:56,600 --> 00:54:59,200 I'm declaring my victory. I'm taking the head of my 838 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:02,920 enemies and saying, see, I got me a head boy, go get you one. 839 00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:05,960 And now he's getting excited about how can I get to some of 840 00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:08,120 that when we going through 24 again? 841 00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:10,880 You ain't got to wait again. You can start right now. 842 00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:12,920 You can 20 before on your own if you want to. 843 00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:17,560 Ain't nobody holding you back. Maximizing and maintaining your 844 00:55:17,560 --> 00:55:21,320 momentum is essential, particularly in prayer. 845 00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:27,000 And my prayer is that Father may that which was spoken as led by 846 00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:31,960 your spirit today, activating your people to maintain and 847 00:55:31,960 --> 00:55:34,800 maximize the momentum we gain through prayer. 848 00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:39,640 But in every other area of life, in Jesus name, Amen. 849 00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:42,720 I wanna welcome up Pastor Daniela. 850 00:55:44,320 --> 00:55:49,040 It's gonna drop a bomb on you. Hey, man. 851 00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:23,760 Attracting me and doing it in love and for standing where the 852 00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:27,360 new me was until I could stand there for myself. 853 00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:30,600 Thank you so much. Thank you for this opportunity 854 00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:35,600 to partner with you and what God is saying through you in this 855 00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:38,600 house for this community. I don't take it lightly and I 856 00:56:38,600 --> 00:56:41,760 love you and I miss you. What an alley oop. 857 00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:46,720 Here's the thing fam, you can't evolve. 858 00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:52,840 You cannot evolve with momentum and a new perspective unless you 859 00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:57,240 know Jesus. You cannot evolve with momentum 860 00:56:57,600 --> 00:57:01,240 and a new perspective without knowing Jesus. 861 00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:06,240 Today we're taking a journey towards enough and abolishing 862 00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:12,240 everything that is anti enough. So we stand here today and we 863 00:57:12,240 --> 00:57:16,800 say enough is enough, enough is enough. 864 00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:18,720 The slide is going to come up in a second. 865 00:57:19,360 --> 00:57:22,240 Enough is enough. Who's ever been frustrated by 866 00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:26,000 something? Family contention? 867 00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:29,320 Maybe you're frustrated at work. Maybe the wrestle that you've 868 00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:33,640 had with God, you're just so fed up and you're just like, enough 869 00:57:33,640 --> 00:57:36,000 is enough. And let me tell you, God is 870 00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:40,680 saying the same thing to you. He's saying enough is enough. 871 00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:45,760 My desire is to get you to enough is enough. 872 00:57:46,600 --> 00:57:58,440 Settled, resolved, convicted. Romans 81 says this. 873 00:57:58,680 --> 00:58:03,040 So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ. 874 00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:07,800 And because you belong to Him, the power of the living Spirit, 875 00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:12,720 the life giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that 876 00:58:12,720 --> 00:58:19,080 leads to death. In the AMP it says, therefore, 877 00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:23,120 there is now no condemnation, no guilty verdict, no punishment 878 00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:26,840 for those who are in Christ Jesus, who believe in him as 879 00:58:26,840 --> 00:58:32,280 personal Lord and Savior. The enemy is after you're in 880 00:58:32,280 --> 00:58:36,000 Christ Ness and he is doing it through condemnation. 881 00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:43,040 If the enemy can attack you and keep you unsettled, then he also 882 00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:48,440 keeps everyone else around you unsettled and wavering and 883 00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:53,960 tossed to and fro. And we are called to soul win. 884 00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:57,760 And in order to soul win, we need to be convicted and 885 00:58:57,760 --> 00:59:04,840 confident that we are his, that He is ours, and that we are 886 00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:08,680 enough. So say this with me. 887 00:59:08,680 --> 00:59:13,120 Say enough is enough, my unsettled days are settled. 888 00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:20,320 Why do we yearn for more and think we aren't enough when 889 00:59:20,320 --> 00:59:24,360 enough lives in us? So enough here, Capital EM 890 00:59:24,400 --> 00:59:26,920 referring to Jesus. Why? 891 00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:29,160 Why do? We yearn for more and we think 892 00:59:29,160 --> 00:59:32,120 we're not enough. There's plenty of people in the 893 00:59:32,120 --> 00:59:36,680 Bible that actually demonstrate that Jesus to them was more than 894 00:59:36,680 --> 00:59:39,520 enough. The woman with the issue of 895 00:59:39,520 --> 00:59:43,200 blood, she's just like, I don't even need to have a conversation 896 00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:45,160 with you. I don't need you to pray for me. 897 00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:47,240 I don't even need you to speak to me. 898 00:59:47,800 --> 00:59:51,720 You are so enough that all I need to do is touch the hem and 899 00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:55,800 I know that I'm going to be healed and it's so can we go to 900 00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:59,000 the next slide? There we go. 901 01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:03,400 And it's so interesting because the story of Jay Iris's daughter 902 01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:07,000 happens directly after it's actually on the way to that 903 01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:09,560 moment. And Jay Iris is just like, OK, 904 01:00:09,600 --> 01:00:13,040 well, now she's dead. So now there's no hope. 905 01:00:13,280 --> 01:00:16,960 And Jesus is like, I'm enough. She's not dead. 906 01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:20,720 She's just sleeping to leave the comb little girl get up. 907 01:00:21,280 --> 01:00:24,000 And she would she did you see with the woman with the 908 01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:26,440 alabaster jar, We see with the woman with two mites, the 909 01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:28,920 centurion who's like, just send your word. 910 01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:31,400 I know it's enough. You don't even need to go. 911 01:00:31,400 --> 01:00:35,320 Just send your word. We see it with Mary, Mary and 912 01:00:35,320 --> 01:00:39,600 Martha, where Martha was like so busy with life and Mary was just 913 01:00:39,720 --> 01:00:44,640 there knowing that Jesus was enough. 914 01:00:45,320 --> 01:00:50,440 That is the Lord's desire for us today, to abolish anything that 915 01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:55,360 is anti enough and to know that we know that we know that He is. 916 01:00:57,400 --> 01:01:01,240 We live in the world but are not of the world and we mustn't let 917 01:01:01,240 --> 01:01:04,720 the distractions of the world keep us from remembering our 918 01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:07,360 enough. There is a difference between 919 01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:11,240 knowing He's enough and letting Him be enough. 920 01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:15,200 It's very different. So how do we let him be enough? 921 01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:18,880 We have to give him access to every area of our life. 922 01:01:19,560 --> 01:01:26,800 Not just the Sundays, not just the midweek Wednesdays, not just 923 01:01:26,800 --> 01:01:31,080 when we're at worship rehearsal, not just when we're at a coffee 924 01:01:31,600 --> 01:01:35,120 discipling someone. We have to give him access to 925 01:01:35,120 --> 01:01:37,520 every area of our life. That's our finances, our 926 01:01:37,520 --> 01:01:41,480 relationships, our workplace, when we're doing homework for 927 01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:46,080 school, every area He needs to be lured because there there is 928 01:01:46,120 --> 01:01:52,920 revelation of who you are when you give him access to you, and 929 01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:58,920 you also let him be enough when you quieten the other voices. 930 01:01:58,920 --> 01:02:04,840 Galatians 5 says this. You are running the race so 931 01:02:04,840 --> 01:02:08,800 well. Who has held you back from 932 01:02:08,800 --> 01:02:12,840 following the truth? It certainly isn't God, for He 933 01:02:12,840 --> 01:02:14,800 is the one who called you to freedom. 934 01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:18,160 This false teaching is like a little yeast that spreads 935 01:02:18,160 --> 01:02:20,160 throughout the whole batch of dough. 936 01:02:26,410 --> 01:02:28,650 Next slide when you're ready. There we go. 937 01:02:28,650 --> 01:02:32,170 I am trusting the Lord to keep you from believing false 938 01:02:32,170 --> 01:02:35,280 teachings. God will judge that person, 939 01:02:35,280 --> 01:02:37,840 whoever it is who has been confusing you. 940 01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:42,800 When we let Him be enough, we are enough. 941 01:02:43,840 --> 01:02:46,200 And it's not something we need to strive for. 942 01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:49,560 It is something that we are because He is. 943 01:02:49,920 --> 01:02:52,880 He created us in His image and likeness. 944 01:02:53,200 --> 01:02:56,160 So we don't even have to do anything to earn enough. 945 01:02:56,480 --> 01:02:59,960 We just are enough. What we need to do is remove the 946 01:02:59,960 --> 01:03:05,080 scales from our eyes to actually receive that revelation. 947 01:03:06,040 --> 01:03:08,640 Deuteronomy 29, five to six is this. 948 01:03:08,640 --> 01:03:11,280 I took you through the wilderness for 40 years and 949 01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:14,080 through all the time, all that time the clothes on your back 950 01:03:14,080 --> 01:03:17,240 didn't wear out, the sandals on your feet didn't wear out, and 951 01:03:17,240 --> 01:03:22,080 you lived well, proving to you that I am in fact God, your God. 952 01:03:22,320 --> 01:03:27,200 If He dresses the lilies with beauty and splendor, how much 953 01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:31,360 more is going to clothe you? If He watches over every 954 01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:35,120 Sparrow, how much more does He love you? 955 01:03:35,600 --> 01:03:40,600 What more do you need church to receive the love of God and know 956 01:03:40,600 --> 01:03:43,360 that you're enough? What is it going to take? 957 01:03:44,440 --> 01:03:47,520 He's demonstrated and proven that He is enough. 958 01:03:48,120 --> 01:03:52,280 If we believe that He is the same God now as He was back then 959 01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:57,320 and the God that is to come, enough is enough. 960 01:03:59,120 --> 01:04:02,720 It's really hard to sell Jesus if you don't even think he's 961 01:04:02,720 --> 01:04:06,280 enough. So you sell him as an option. 962 01:04:06,320 --> 01:04:09,680 This one hit me when Pastor Terrence said it in this sermon. 963 01:04:10,640 --> 01:04:12,560 Enough back in March, I believe it was. 964 01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:16,960 I was like, oh, OK. And then God said to me, because 965 01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:21,640 if you sell them as an option, options breed confusion. 966 01:04:22,640 --> 01:04:25,520 And confusion leads to unsettled and unsatisfied. 967 01:04:25,720 --> 01:04:27,440 Always. It always does. 968 01:04:27,880 --> 01:04:30,920 And when you're unsettled and unsatisfied, that leads to 969 01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:34,360 lukewarmness. And so you can't win first your 970 01:04:34,360 --> 01:04:38,760 own soul, and you can't win the souls that God has ordainedly 971 01:04:38,760 --> 01:04:43,080 connected you to when you're unsettled and unsatisfied. 972 01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:47,200 Psalm 42 says this. I love it. 973 01:04:47,800 --> 01:04:54,760 It's the dear pants longingly desire for the water brooks. 974 01:04:55,000 --> 01:05:02,600 So my soul pants longingly desire for you, O God, my soul, 975 01:05:02,600 --> 01:05:07,640 my life, my inner self thirsts for God, for the living God. 976 01:05:08,600 --> 01:05:11,160 When will I come and see the face of God? 977 01:05:11,640 --> 01:05:15,840 Question. Your level of desire will always 978 01:05:15,840 --> 01:05:18,760 lead to questions. Elder John said that so 979 01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:23,240 eloquently yesterday in Prayer Sun Shameless plug, you should 980 01:05:23,240 --> 01:05:25,240 all come to prayer. It's incredible. 981 01:05:26,480 --> 01:05:30,440 Your level of desire will always lead to questions. 982 01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:33,960 It's a sonship issue. It's an identity issue. 983 01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:36,880 When you ask the right questions, it will always lead 984 01:05:36,880 --> 01:05:41,440 to sonship being inquiring of your father. 985 01:05:41,440 --> 01:05:45,280 You see this with little kids. Why, why, why? 986 01:05:45,440 --> 01:05:47,840 Now the why, why, why I make it a little irritating. 987 01:05:47,840 --> 01:05:49,240 I don't know. I don't have kids, but I do have 988 01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:52,000 a niece and nephew. But the fact that they're asking 989 01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:56,560 questions should demonstrate to you a desire, their desire. 990 01:05:57,800 --> 01:06:01,120 Now, if you don't have questions or you're asking the wrong 991 01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:03,440 questions, that's what leads to confusion. 992 01:06:03,680 --> 01:06:06,000 OK, so if you don't have questions, that makes sense. 993 01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:09,080 That leads to confusion because of the inertia. 994 01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:11,680 You're saying stagnant. You're still there's no momentum 995 01:06:11,680 --> 01:06:14,800 moving you forward towards Christ, but you might be going. 996 01:06:14,840 --> 01:06:17,120 OK, well pastor, do what are wrong questions? 997 01:06:17,120 --> 01:06:18,680 I don't even know what that means. 998 01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:21,000 Here's some examples. Why them not me? 999 01:06:22,400 --> 01:06:25,440 How come I can't do the things that they that they do the way 1000 01:06:25,440 --> 01:06:29,320 that they do them? Why is my hair brown and not 1001 01:06:29,320 --> 01:06:32,880 blonde? Why are my feet a size 9 instead 1002 01:06:32,880 --> 01:06:35,040 of a size 8? Here's one for you that I used 1003 01:06:35,040 --> 01:06:37,440 to ask myself or ask God all the time. 1004 01:06:38,200 --> 01:06:41,720 Why didn't you give me these beautiful green eyes that you 1005 01:06:41,720 --> 01:06:44,360 gave my brother and my father, and instead you gave me these 1006 01:06:44,360 --> 01:06:46,360 ordinary brown eyes that you gave my mom? 1007 01:06:46,880 --> 01:06:51,840 Why, why, why, why, why all of these questions that are the 1008 01:06:51,840 --> 01:06:54,160 wrong questions to ask. And I'm going to flip the 1009 01:06:54,160 --> 01:06:57,560 conversation because you could be saying why them? 1010 01:06:57,560 --> 01:07:01,200 Not me, but you could also be saying why me and not them. 1011 01:07:03,280 --> 01:07:04,760 I don't have a song inside of me. 1012 01:07:05,160 --> 01:07:07,400 I can't pray like the pastors and the elders. 1013 01:07:08,240 --> 01:07:10,640 Why are you calling me the children's ministry when I don't 1014 01:07:10,640 --> 01:07:14,600 even have kids? I think someone better fit for 1015 01:07:14,600 --> 01:07:17,120 that ministry would be someone who has children. 1016 01:07:17,120 --> 01:07:19,560 They should be the ones serving in that ministry. 1017 01:07:19,960 --> 01:07:22,280 These are all questions that count yourself out and they 1018 01:07:22,280 --> 01:07:26,400 always lead to confusion. And so if you're having these, 1019 01:07:26,400 --> 01:07:29,520 this conversation in your head, this is what you need to abolish 1020 01:07:29,520 --> 01:07:34,000 because this conversation is as if to say you're not enough and 1021 01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:39,520 that God made you incomplete. He did not make you incomplete. 1022 01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:42,480 He made you fearfully and wonderfully made. 1023 01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:47,440 That's where you need to get to a place to instead of there's 1024 01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:50,160 something wrong with me. It's like, OK, God, you made me 1025 01:07:50,160 --> 01:07:51,280 this way. Why? 1026 01:07:52,440 --> 01:07:54,480 You said it's enough. Why? 1027 01:07:54,840 --> 01:07:57,760 What do you have for me from that perspective? 1028 01:07:58,360 --> 01:08:00,720 Here is a beautiful example of sonship. 1029 01:08:01,800 --> 01:08:06,960 Matthew 11 says this. Jesus resumed talking to the 1030 01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:11,800 people, but now tenderly. The Father has given me all 1031 01:08:11,800 --> 01:08:16,439 these things to do and say. This is a unique Father, Son 1032 01:08:16,439 --> 01:08:21,359 operation coming out of the Father and Son intimacies and 1033 01:08:21,359 --> 01:08:24,080 knowledge. No one knows the Son the way the 1034 01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:28,000 Father does, nor the Father the way the Son does. 1035 01:08:28,399 --> 01:08:30,880 But I'm keeping, but I'm not keeping it to myself. 1036 01:08:30,920 --> 01:08:35,240 I'm ready to go over it line by line with anyone who is willing 1037 01:08:35,240 --> 01:08:37,160 to listen. Scripture says we have 1038 01:08:37,200 --> 01:08:40,080 everything we need in life for life and godliness. 1039 01:08:40,880 --> 01:08:43,040 But the other part of that scripture says through the 1040 01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:45,920 knowledge of Him, we know who we are. 1041 01:08:45,920 --> 01:08:49,880 Through the knowledge of Him, our enoughness comes from the 1042 01:08:49,880 --> 01:08:53,279 knowledge of Him. There is a worship team you can 1043 01:08:53,279 --> 01:08:56,200 come up. There is a level of who you are 1044 01:08:56,200 --> 01:09:00,080 that can only be unlocked in the letting Him be enough. 1045 01:09:01,479 --> 01:09:03,880 I'm gonna say that again. There is a level of who you are 1046 01:09:04,120 --> 01:09:07,359 that can only be unlocked in the letting him be enough. 1047 01:09:07,760 --> 01:09:11,040 When you know he's enough, you'll know he made you enough. 1048 01:09:11,680 --> 01:09:14,120 That's it. That's it. 1049 01:09:14,120 --> 01:09:21,479 His enoughness is a key. His enoughness is a key, and it 1050 01:09:21,479 --> 01:09:25,279 is key. His enoughness is a key, and it 1051 01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:31,200 is key if the enemy can keep you from not believing. 1052 01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:33,760 But knowing Jesus is enough, you remain. 1053 01:09:33,760 --> 01:09:38,200 Wanderer and Wanderers are intertwined in cycles of 1054 01:09:38,200 --> 01:09:43,960 unsettleness, confusion, being tossed to and fro, lukewarmness. 1055 01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:47,279 And it is a cycle that repeats itself, and the Lord wants to 1056 01:09:47,279 --> 01:09:53,439 abolish that today. Enough means incurring in such 1057 01:09:53,439 --> 01:09:58,880 quantity, quality, or scope is to fully meet demands, needs, or 1058 01:09:58,880 --> 01:10:02,200 expectations. And another definition says this 1059 01:10:03,480 --> 01:10:08,320 in, in, or to a degree or quantity that satisfies or that 1060 01:10:08,320 --> 01:10:11,000 is sufficient or necessary for satisfaction. 1061 01:10:11,200 --> 01:10:14,360 We sing songs all the time that Jesus is sufficient. 1062 01:10:14,720 --> 01:10:17,960 Jesus, you're enough. When are we actually going to 1063 01:10:17,960 --> 01:10:21,240 believe that? And I'm not saying that you 1064 01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:24,600 don't, but I'm offering it as a question for you to ask 1065 01:10:24,600 --> 01:10:27,240 yourself, Do I really believe it when I'm standing here 1066 01:10:27,240 --> 01:10:30,600 worshiping the Lord and saying Jesus, you're enough, you'll 1067 01:10:30,600 --> 01:10:34,080 always be enough, you've always been enough, Jesus, you're 1068 01:10:34,080 --> 01:10:36,200 enough. Do we believe that? 1069 01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:42,120 Why do you struggle with the Lord being enough for you when 1070 01:10:42,120 --> 01:10:45,480 He has always only said you're enough for me? 1071 01:10:47,680 --> 01:10:50,960 We don't have to do anything to earn Jesus. 1072 01:10:51,720 --> 01:10:54,560 We don't have anything to that. We don't need to do anything to 1073 01:10:54,680 --> 01:10:58,400 earn our enoughness. He has already said we're enough 1074 01:10:59,400 --> 01:11:02,280 and it is our job to believe it and receive it. 1075 01:11:02,560 --> 01:11:08,080 To move from knowing to believing it, to letting Him be 1076 01:11:08,080 --> 01:11:14,120 enough because enough is enough.
