We don't have to go back and forth. 206 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:30,040 Even in the book of James, Lord, your word says that even when we ask, we don't even have to ask doubting because the doubter is like the person that is double minded, that's kind of going back and forth on the waves. 207 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,040 And Lord, that's not who we are. 208 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:42,040 We can know that we know that we know we're safe in you, Jesus. 209 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:45,040 Jesus is in the boat. 210 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:49,040 Can you tell your neighbor that Jesus is in the boat? 211 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:54,040 Jesus is in the boat as it rains outside this morning. 212 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:58,040 So, Father, we thank you for a mighty worship team. 213 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:02,040 We thank you, Lord, just for a house of worship. 214 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:12,040 We thank you, Lord, that we can come here and that we can break the chains of spiritual warfare even through our words and through our actions and through our declarations, Lord. 215 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:21,040 That as we praise you in this house, in your house, Lord, we rebuke the devil. 216 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:29,040 Father, we say yes to freedom, salvation, healing, and mercy and grace. 217 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:35,040 Lord, we pray these things because of your son, Jesus. 218 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,040 We pray because of him. 219 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,040 We thank you for Jesus. 220 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,040 Thank you for Jesus. 221 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,040

people that if you come up with some artwork, right, we're going to take 373 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:36,800 the best one and put it on a shirt. 374 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:41,040 So that'll give you all an opportunity to use your talents. 375 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:42,400 And that'll come out this week. 376 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:47,680 So if you don't have the email, another reason to sign up for

and Riley were like, hey, let's go get some non-dairy dilly bars. 466 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:30,040 We were going to go, and just me and Daddy Daughter, going to the store. 467 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:31,040 It was delightful. 468 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:32,760 We had a delightful dinner. 469 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:36,680 We go out the door, the dogs, somebody said, hey, let the dog go. 470 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:43,640 So then they both run outside, and as we walk outside, one of them darts across the yard. 471 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:44,640 I'm like, what in the world? 472 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:45,640 It's dark outside. 473 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:46,760 It's 8 o'clock at night. 474 00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:48,760 I don't know what's going on. 475 00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:51,240 My biggest dog grabs hold of a skunk. 476 00:36:51,240 --> 00:36:53,560 Listen, y'all, a skunk. 477 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:58,000 She grabs it right on the side, and she's flailing this thing up and down. 478 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,280 The whole time, it's 8 o'clock, it's dark outside. 479 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:03,840 I'm screaming in the top of my lungs, no! 480 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:04,840 Stop! 481 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:05,840 No! 482 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:07,840 I can see it. 483 00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:09,920 This thing is spraying her in the face. 484 00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:11,960 It's spraying her in the mouth. 485 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:12,960 Yes. 486 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:17,200 And the whole time, it's going all over the yard, the other dog is loving it. 487 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:18,560 She's rolling in it. 488 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:20,160 She's like, oh, yeah. 489 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:21,880 Oh, this is good. 490 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:23,880 What is this scent? 491 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,520 This is amazing. 492 00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:29,320 Where has this been all my life? 493 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:38,800 Hey, listen, did I mention the delightful part of the evening right before that? 494 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:40,840 The salmon was delightful. 495 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:47,160 So the whole time I'm driving to get some skunk spray, I'm like, I cannot believe. 496 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:53,920 So hey, my wife is washing the dogs, and I'm going to get skunk spray. 497 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,120 She says, a fox. 498 00:37:56,120 --> 00:38:01,360 A fox comes trotting right across the grass. 499 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:04,440 I'm like, is this the Nature Channel? 500 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:09,720 What in the world is going on at my house? 501 00:38:09,720 --> 00:38:11,120 Brandy says it's like Evan Almighty. 502 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:15,440 She said, when y'all come in this morning, there'll be birds flying through the front. 503 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:19,400 Yeah, welcome to my world. 504 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:22,480 It's like Jack Hanna up in this joint. 505 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,360 If you like nature, hang out. 506 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:35,880 Hey, I was, where is Drea? 507 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:36,880 The bride of Christ. 508 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:40,400 I know you got a slide for that, we're in the series, and if you're wondering why we 509 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:45,600 have this above us and all the tool and the arbor and all this that we have, normally 510 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:47,000 this stuff is not here. 511 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:51,200 But this is just for this bride of Christ teaching. 512 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:52,200 This is free of charge. 513 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:57,920 I just want to share something because it's just really, man, it just touched my heart 514 00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:03,640 this week because I love this revelation when you're like, and it's not even a conversation 515 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:08,200 with you and Jesus and you're sitting with him and you're listening to him and you're 516 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:10,320 pursuing him. 517 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:18,640 So even this week as I was pursuing the Lord, he started revealing to me about the bride 518 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:20,880 in a way that I wasn't even studying. 519 00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:27,000 Like I was studying to teach and the Lord's like, hey, put that down a minute. 520 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:28,800 Stop that. 521 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:31,360 Don't do that. 522 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:33,760 Listen to me for a minute. 523 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:44,440 And he started showing me how in the beginning, like marriage has come so far over the generations. 524 00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:51,480 And listen, I think that we don't really realize that we set our calendar by Jesus, right? 525 00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:57,320 The year, like it's how long it's been since Jesus lived and walked on the earth. 526 00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,640 It's when grace came to the earth. 527 00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:01,640 Can I get a witness? 528 00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:05,840 It's like there was a shift that happened in the Old Testament when we lived under the 529 00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:12,400 law and then when Jesus Christ came and was born of a virgin birth and he walked this 530 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:16,760 sinless life that we could never live and he gave his life on a cross, on a sinner's 531 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:22,200 cross so that we could have everlasting life, that he gave his life willingly for yours 532 00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:23,200 and for mine. 533 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:28,240 And then when we believe in him, that we would have everlasting eternal life in him. 534 00:40:28,240 --> 00:40:30,240 Can I get a witness? 535 00:40:30,240 --> 00:40:32,840 I want to tell you something. 536 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:34,600 It's not just our calendars that change. 537 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:35,720 There's something else that changed. 538 00:40:35,720 --> 00:40:38,520 The Lord started showing me and this is totally separate. 539 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:39,520 This is free. 540 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:40,520 This is extra. 541 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,440 And I want you to take this with you, but I want you to take it with you in your heart. 542 00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:48,000 I want you to take it to your heart and have new understanding of the power of our Lord 543 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:53,080 and Savior Jesus because when Jesus came, he changed everything. 544 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:58,800 You see, when the fall happened, before the fall in the garden when Adam and Eve, when 545 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:01,600 they were sinless, they walked and they were naked. 546 00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:02,720 There was no shame. 547 00:41:02,720 --> 00:41:04,920 There was no bitterness. 548 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:06,600 There was no rivalry. 549 00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:07,880 There was nothing. 550 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:10,800 There was nothing to blame because there was no sin. 551 00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:16,480 But when the apple came in and the sin came in, something changed and something shifted 552 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:20,680 and when something shifted, we immediately see there was this fracture, not only a fracture 553 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:27,760 that they were dead, right, that they died in their nature, in sin nature. 554 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:30,120 They died spiritually, if you will. 555 00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:31,560 But listen to this, guys. 556 00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:39,960 There's also this thing that happened where they began to blame each other. 557 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:45,840 It was like the marriage was perfect before sin came in, but when sin came into the marriage, 558 00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:53,480 when sin came in, they began, she says, well, he gave me the apple and the man. 559 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:59,680 He says, well, it's this woman that you gave me. 560 00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:04,080 You see, when sin came in, the marriage, there was strife in the marriage and there was division 561 00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:05,080 in the marriage. 562 00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:06,320 But y'all listen to me. 563 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:08,200 We see it continued in the Old Testament. 564 00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:09,200 You ever wondered why? 565 00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:15,440 Lord, why do we see when we open up our Bible and we see that these even priests and the 566 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:28,120 people in the bloodline of the Levites, I mean, there were priests and there were kings 567 00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:33,560 and there were leaders and there were people, God's people that had multiple wives. 568 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:34,960 Have you ever wondered? 569 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:37,120 Cocubines, you see that? 570 00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:39,040 You see that throughout the Old Testament? 571 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:44,080 It's like they had multiple wives and so the Lord was showing me that those things didn't 572 00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:45,440 come from God. 573 00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:50,320 They came because man and because of pride and because of greed. 574 00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:56,400 There was these things that came in and men had multiple wives and sometimes even hundreds 575 00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:58,360 of wives. 576 00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:00,000 They no longer walked in honor. 577 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:03,960 They no longer loved. 578 00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:09,760 They no longer loved like they were made to love. 579 00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:13,760 But then if you ever wondered why, when we look around and we walk around today, we all 580 00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:14,760 listen to me. 581 00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:16,040 We walk around today. 582 00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:20,080 You don't see that anymore. 583 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:21,080 Praise God. 584 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:24,000 But I want to tell you something church. 585 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:27,040 It's not that we just set our watch by who Jesus is. 586 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:29,440 We don't just set our calendar by who Jesus is. 587 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:34,280 When Jesus came and we entered into grace, when Jesus came and he paid the sin debt for 588 00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:37,520 eternity, something else shifted and something else changed. 589 00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:41,920 We don't just sing these songs that he breaks every chain. 590 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:47,680 He literally gave us the ability to be able to walk in love and to honor our wives and 591 00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:49,680 to honor our husbands. 592 00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:54,680 And listen, there was this thing that came that he actually made the marriage sanctified 593 00:43:54,680 --> 00:44:00,240 again that we can literally walk in sanctity, that we can walk in a holy matrimony. 594 00:44:00,240 --> 00:44:04,760 Can I get a witness? 595 00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:06,520 And listen, it was the most beautiful picture. 596 00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:08,000 I'm like, Lord, are you serious? 597 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,800 And Jesus is like, yes. 598 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:14,280 And I'm like, why don't they teach this stuff in school? 599 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:15,280 Why don't we learn this? 600 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:20,240 And whenever we go into the Christian college, why aren't they showing us that? 601 00:44:20,240 --> 00:44:21,240 Let me tell you something. 602 00:44:21,240 --> 00:44:28,480 We can have a holy and honoring and loving and successful marriage because of who Jesus 603 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:34,480 Christ not was, but is today. 604 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:48,200 That he actually makes it possible that our marriage could be real and true and loving 605 00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:59,680 and pure and honoring because of Jesus, because Jesus changes everything. 606 00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:05,400 All right, that's free of charge. 607 00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:11,120 Hey, so let's pray before we start. 608 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:18,160 Lord, we thank you that because of who you are, Jesus, that we can have an honoring and 609 00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:23,560 loving, that we can love our children, that we can love our spouse, that we can love one 610 00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:24,560 another. 611 00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:34,120 Because, Lord, that we don't have to walk in pride or in ego, that we can literally... 612 00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:37,680 We don't have to elevate ourselves because, Lord, we elevate you, Jesus. 613 00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:41,320 We give you all the praise and the honor and the glory in this place. 614 00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:45,520 Lord, we thank you that it's because of you. 615 00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:52,520 It's because of you that we can walk in unity with our heavenly Father, that we can walk 616 00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:56,160 in freedom, that we can walk in love. 617 00:45:56,160 --> 00:46:04,080 And, Lord, we thank you for the people of this church, the laid down lovers of Christ. 618 00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:08,640 It's in Jesus' name and all God's people said, amen. 619 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:11,720 Hey, here's today's teaching. 620 00:46:11,720 --> 00:46:16,080 And if you take notes, it's time for a new you. 621 00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:17,220 It's time for a new you. 622 00:46:17,220 --> 00:46:25,080 We saw just a special picture of Sweet Beth as Mick baptized his daughter. 623 00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:32,840 We saw this picture of this death to an old life and being raised to walk again this morning 624 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:35,320 and believers baptism. 625 00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:36,760 What a wonderful picture. 626 00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,320 Mick, Angeline, you have beautiful children. 627 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:40,320 We love you. 628 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:41,320 We thank you. 629 00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:42,320 We honor you. 630 00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:44,960 Beth, we are so proud of you. 631 00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:47,400 Man, just an amazing day. 632 00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:52,920 But I want to tell you that, you know, it's not just Beth in this house. 633 00:46:52,920 --> 00:47:01,240 I think that all of us, if we're honest, in some form or fashion, we desire a new start. 634 00:47:01,240 --> 00:47:02,480 We desire a new start. 635 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:03,600 Y'all just hear me out. 636 00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:05,680 I'm not saying outside of the marriage covenant. 637 00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:08,800 I'm not saying outside of the Jesus covenant. 638 00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:11,080 We have covenants with our Lord and Savior. 639 00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:14,360 We walk in honoring the covenants that we're in. 640 00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:17,520 And when I say a new you, I'm not saying that you're going to pack up and leave your family 641 00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:20,400 or run off on the things that God has given you. 642 00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:21,400 That's not what I'm saying. 643 00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:24,960 As a matter of fact, I'm saying the opposite of that. 644 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:27,840 When I say that we desire a new start, y'all listen to me. 645 00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:31,680 If you desire a new start, it will never happen out here. 646 00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:37,120 As a matter of fact, if you packed up and you ran, if you packed up and you left, you 647 00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:41,920 would always be packing up and leaving because the new start, guys, is not out here. 648 00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:46,760 It's actually in here. 649 00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:49,760 The new start doesn't happen out here. 650 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:56,080 So if you keep on searching for the new start out here, you will never find the new start 651 00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:59,920 because the new start is in here. 652 00:47:59,920 --> 00:48:04,240 The new start is inside. 653 00:48:04,240 --> 00:48:09,440 And this is Beth this morning as she was dunked and we saw that as the Bible says that if 654 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:15,000 anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation, the old is gone, the new has come. 655 00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:20,200 The newness of life that comes, comes from the outside, I mean from the inside and then 656 00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:23,520 it comes out from the inside. 657 00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:25,640 It's a new life. 658 00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:31,120 So if you desire a new life and a new beginning or a new identity, it's because of Christ 659 00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:33,400 that we can have a new start. 660 00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:35,480 We can have a new life. 661 00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:40,200 We can have a new beginning, but it doesn't happen outside. 662 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:44,800 It happens inside. 663 00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:49,680 This morning I want you to know that as we talk about the marriage and we talk about 664 00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:55,160 it's time for a new you, you have to first understand that you're no longer married 665 00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:58,480 to the things prior. 666 00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:03,360 How many of us have made, just as we said this morning during worship, we've made vows, 667 00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:09,800 we've said things, we've agreed with things, these word curses over our life or these things 668 00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:15,780 that we agree with in the natural, but listen to me, we agree with these things and we say 669 00:49:15,780 --> 00:49:21,880 yes to these things and listen, we make covenants and we actually feel as if we're stuck and 670 00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:26,800 we're married to these things, these things in our old life, the things that we used to 671 00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:31,080 believe, these things, these, listen to me guys, I'm talking old habits, I'm talking 672 00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:35,800 about old thoughts, I'm talking about old patterns, I'm talking about old sins, I'm 673 00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:39,960 talking about, listen to this, how about old rejections, like we're walking around in life 674 00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:44,440 and we're married to people that rejected us a long time ago or we're walking around 675 00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:46,200 and how about the failure? 676 00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:52,520 How many of us are married to a failure that happened 20 years ago? 677 00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:59,320 Maybe a marriage or a relationship or a business, but it's time for a new you and listen, we're 678 00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:04,840 not, we can't have a new you, you can't walk in a new life and a new beginning and be married 679 00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:11,360 to the old thing, to the old life and the old pattern and the old thought process, you 680 00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:16,920 can't have a new life and still walk around married to the things of the natural, you've 681 00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:24,240 got to have a new spiritual birth and that's why Jesus says unless you're born again, you'll 682 00:50:24,240 --> 00:50:28,960 never see the kingdom of God. 683 00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:32,200 How many of us are walking around and you're like, man, I don't feel spiritually strong, 684 00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:38,280 I don't feel spiritually reborn, it's because you need to be born again on the inside and 685 00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:43,960 there's got to be a new you, you've got to be born again. 686 00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:46,200 Can I get a witness? 687 00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:52,880 Look at Isaiah 43 in verses 18 and 19, our father in heaven says, do not remember the 688 00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:53,880 past events. 689 00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:55,440 Can we say that together? 690 00:50:55,440 --> 00:50:59,160 Do not remember the past events. 691 00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:01,360 Alright, some more, come on, let's do it again. 692 00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:05,880 Do not remember the past events. 693 00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:09,160 Pay no attention to the old things, keep going. 694 00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:12,880 Look, I'm about to do something, what? 695 00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:14,600 New. 696 00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:17,080 Even now it is coming, when? 697 00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:18,240 Now. 698 00:51:18,240 --> 00:51:20,080 It's coming right now. 699 00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:24,960 Guys, I want to encourage you to stop right there for a minute, God's about to do a new 700 00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:29,920 thing in your life, but you've got to agree that I'm not paying attention to the old things, 701 00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:34,840 I'm laying down the past, I will no longer remember the old thing. 702 00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:40,480 I am going to believe that God, this is a turning point, today is the day, the first 703 00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:46,000 day of the rest of my life, can I get a witness? 704 00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:51,480 Even now, this isn't brother Brad, this is God Almighty saying even now it's coming. 705 00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:53,840 Do you see it? 706 00:51:53,840 --> 00:52:01,360 Indeed, I'm going to make a way in the wilderness, I'm going to make rivers in the desert. 707 00:52:01,360 --> 00:52:07,120 Hey, let's just pray again, I feel this, so Lord we just thank you that, Lord I just, 708 00:52:07,120 -->

that you are just chopping 710 00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:20,080 off the head of the serpent this morning, that Lord those things that have kept us bound, 711 00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:24,280 those things that have lied to us for so long Lord, those things we're shutting the mouth 712 00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:29,840 of the enemy Lord in the mighty name of Jesus and Father I thank you that we will believe

yes to your faithfulness, we will say yes 715 00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:47,360 to your power, we will say yes to your salvation, we will say yes to your Jesus, and we will 716 00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:52,560 say no this morning to the enemy, we will rebuke him in the mighty name of Jesus and 717 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:56,120 it's in Jesus name we pray, amen. 718 00:52:56,120 --> 00:53:02,920 It's time church for us to leave and cleave, that's a marriage term, right, that you leave 719 00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:08,000 and cleave your parents and now you are one body, you are married to your

with our spouse, that's something that we see, but it's time 722 00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:24,600 for us to leave and cleave the old things that we believed that we were married to, 723 00:53:24,600 -->

prophesy over you in this place that there will be no repercussion, 744 00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:30,120 let me tell you something, it's messy sometimes when there's consequences, so I'm not saying 745 00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:34,840 that you hurt people that there won't be consequences, I'm not saying that if there was something 746 00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:39,920 that happened and there was a consequence that you broke the law, sometimes those things 747 00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:43,920 have to be paid, our debt to society has to be paid, but I'm telling you something, the 748 00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:48,320 Lord is going to redeem all the things in your life, when you trust him with it, he 749 00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:52,400 will bring you out of the muck and the mire, it doesn't matter how deep the pit, how far 750 00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:57,680 you've gone, how deep you've gone, how long you've been gone, Jesus Christ is enough and 751 00:55:57,680 --> 00:56:01,680 he will redeem you from the deepest place. 752 00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:08,040 I decree and declare in this place this morning that there will be no penalty that will be 753 00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:16,880 paid, let me put it this way, there's no limit, there's no limit to the heights that God will 754 00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:23,400 take you in the way that he will redeem you, in the way that he will use you, see in the 755 00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:28,800 heavenlies he doesn't work like he does in the natural, too many of us think we've been 756 00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:35,000 disqualified because we've had a this or that, I could go on and on, but maybe it's a divorce, 757 00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:41,640 maybe it's a wayward child, maybe it's a failed business, maybe it's a failed relationship, 758 00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:46,920 maybe it was an affair that happened 20 years ago, 15 years ago, but I want to tell you 759 00:56:46,920 --> 00:56:51,160 something, we have a Lord and Savior that's bigger than any problem or any circumstances 760 00:56:51,160 --> 00:56:56,920 that our lives or even our actions, listen, life you're going to fail, you're going to 761 00:56:56,920 --> 00:57:01,600 fall down, but I'm telling you it's time to stop being married to those old things, the 762 00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:07,160 former things have passed away and he says forget those things, no longer remember the 763 00:57:07,160 --> 00:57:17,600 things of the past, I am about to do a new thing in your life, amen. 764 00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:27,200 Restoration, God is in the life changing business, if anyone is in Christ, if anyone, who? If 765 00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:33,440 anyone, who? If anyone is in Christ, he's a new creation, the old is gone and the new 766 00:57:33,440 --> 00:57:42,760 has come, if anyone is in Christ, the former things have passed away, that's why we have 767 00:57:42,760 --> 00:57:48,960 the marriage decorations in here, because we're no longer married, listen, to the world 768 00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:57,480 or the decisions, but we have married, we're the bride of, alright, keep on going, we're 769 00:57:57,480 --> 00:58:08,480 the bride of, we're the bride of, come on, both answers are correct, Jesus, bride of 770 00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:13,960 Christ, same thing, can I tell you something too, can we just break some more lies of the 771 00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:22,520 enemy this morning, God is ready to restore you, he's always ready to restore you, I want 772 00:58:22,520 --> 00:58:31,680 to tell you, sometimes we think, well, I don't know, you know, God's busy, seven billion 773 00:58:31,680 --> 00:58:41,640 people in the world, Hank, a lot of prayers going up there, he probably ain't got time 774 00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:48,280 to deal with my stuff, it's going to take a while, pretty big file, a lot of stuff, 775 00:58:48,280 --> 00:59:07,200 big conversation, if you only knew what I've done, it's going to take a minute, amen, I 776 00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:13,880 want to assure you this morning that God is not limited in power, he's not limited by 777 00:59:13,880 --> 00:59:21,680 time, he's not limited by capacity, the blood of Jesus, one drop of the blood of Jesus 778 00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:27,440 is enough, it always has been and it always will be, God is ready to restore you all the 779 00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:31,800 way to the heavenlies, there is nothing that is going to come against you, ever has or 780 00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:43,800 ever will that God cannot restore and do it immediately, all we have to do is ask, ask 781 00:59:43,800 --> 00:59:49,760 God, ask God to restore you, you see, that's the thing, it's a lie of the enemy, that place 782 00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:55,120 where you feel like that you're not worthy, that God's too busy or God doesn't have time 783 00:59:55,120 --> 00:59:59,440 or it's too much, those things are all lies of the enemy, see, the only thing it takes 784 00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:05,200 is for me to walk away from my sin, walk away from that old life, walk away from those old 785 01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:10,800 habits, walk away from that old belief, walk away from that old life, turn away, repent 786 01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:23,520 and he will meet me exactly where I am, all we have to do is simply ask, it's time for 787 01:00:23,520 --> 01:00:31,520 us to reach out in faith and simply ask, ask God for that new life, can I tell you something, 788 01:00:31,520 --> 01:00:36,800 y'all listen to me church, he is waiting for you to ask, he's saying my child I have been 789 01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:42,320 waiting and I have been watching and it has hurt me and grieved me, I have been waiting 790 01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:46,040 for you to say no to that life, I've been waiting for you to say no to the pain, I've 791 01:00:46,040 --> 01:00:50,280 been waiting for you to say no to those beliefs, I've been waiting for you to say no to those 792 01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:55,280 habits, I've been waiting for you to quit being stuck in the muck and the mire and being 793 01:00:55,280 --> 01:01:00,880 tied down, y'all listen to me, God has been waiting for us to simply ask. 794 01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:09,920 ask. I want y'all to look at this scripture. It's in Matthew 7 verses 7 through 11. Man, 795 01:01:09,920 --> 01:01:19,360 I'm telling y'all. I'm going to read the scripture. Ask and it will be given to you. Seek and 796 01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:27,080 you will find. Knock and the door will be opened to you. Keep going. For everyone who 797 01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:36,760 asks receives. Come on guys. Everyone who asks receives and the one who seeks will find 798 01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:45,280 and the one who knocks the door will be opened. Who among you, if the son asks him for bread, 799 01:01:45,280 --> 01:01:52,520 will give him a stone? Or if he asks for fish, will give him a snake? If you then, who are 800 01:01:52,520 --> 01:02:00,200 evil? Know how to give good gifts to your children. How much more will your father in 801 01:02:00,200 --> 01:02:09,640 heaven give you good things to those who ask? I want to tell you something. Sometimes that 802 01:02:09,640 --> 01:02:14,640 old offense pops in your heart. I mean even when you read that you're like, I think Jesus 803 01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:20,720 said call me evil. I think that Jesus just called me evil. Right here, this is red letters 804 01:02:20,720 --> 01:02:24,840 not on the screen, but it's red letters in the Bible. Right? I think Jesus just called 805 01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:31,920 me evil. But listen to me guys. It's not about you. It's not about you. These verses are 806 01:02:31,920 --> 01:02:36,960 not about you. They are about our father in heaven. It's talking about who he is, not 807 01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:44,200 who we are. And so many times we want to pick up this thing and start wearing and take that 808 01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:48,780 as a medal or take that as a name tag. Like you got a name tag on you that says evil. 809 01:02:48,780 --> 01:02:54,520 You're not evil. You are redeemed. You are forgiven. You have been set free because of 810 01:02:54,520 --> 01:03:00,760 Jesus. That's who you are. Jesus came and he's preaching and he's saying he's using 811 01:03:00,760 --> 01:03:06,380 our beliefs and our actions as an example. But he says, listen, if you who are separated 812 01:03:06,380 --> 01:03:13,480 and not completely holy, you're not where God is. But if you can give great things, 813 01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:19,240 if you can pour out blessings on your children, how much more does your heavenly father want 814 01:03:19,240 --> 01:03:28,240 to give you? The creator and the owner of all things. It's not about you. It's about 815 01:03:28,240 --> 01:03:35,800 him. Who he is and the things that he's about to do in your life. And I want to tell you 816 01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:41,080 something when you come to him church, listen, and you say, Lord, I want that new life. I 817 01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:46,880 want that new beginning. Lord, I want those that new season. I want that new authority. 818 01:03:46,880 --> 01:03:51,400 I want that new freedom. Lord, I want these things that you're promising. Lord, I want 819 01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:55,680 to walk with you. I want to be with you. I'm tired of living the life that I've been in. 820 01:03:55,680 --> 01:04:04,760 Lord, I desire you. Man, he's going to answer that prayer. Because when you ask, he's going 821 01:04:04,760 --> 01:04:08,800 to answer. When you seek, you're going to find. When you knock, the door is going to 822 01:04:08,800 --> 01:04:22,120 be open. Can I get a witness from the congregation? We just have to simply ask. You ever wonder 823 01:04:22,120 --> 01:04:27,120 why all the people in the Old Testament got a new name? This is free of charge. Side note. 824 01:04:27,120 --> 01:04:32,080 Footnote. Totally free. But I want to tell you something. God's ready to give some people 825 01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:40,920 in this room a new name today. A new name. A new name. Well, they're like, what happened 826 01:04:40,920 --> 01:04:47,480 to you? They're going to see you on the street. What happened to you? I got born again. I 827 01:04:47,480 --> 01:04:53,000 got set free. I'm no longer the old person I used to be. I'm no longer married to those 828 01:04:53,000 --> 01:04:59,080 beliefs. I'm no longer walking in those old beliefs. I now have a sound mind. I want to 829 01:04:59,080 --> 01:05:03,400 ask you something. Do you need renewed mercy? Can I tell you something about God? When I 830 01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:09,280 say renewed mercy, his mercy doesn't go up and down. He was merciful in the beginning. 831 01:05:09,280 --> 01:05:15,320 He'll be merciful forever. He is everlasting, a merciful God. It talks about in the Old 832 01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:19,160 Testament and the New Testament. But I want to tell you something. If you ask him for 833 01:05:19,160 --> 01:05:23,840 renewed mercy, a new understanding of his mercy in your life, he's going to give it 834 01:05:23,840 --> 01:05:37,680 to you. His mercy doesn't change. We do. You ask him for a sound mind. You ask him for 835 01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:42,280 healing. You ask him for health. You ask him for strength in your character. You ask him 836 01:05:42,280 --> 01:05:46,840 for grace in your weakness. I want to tell you something, church. He is ready to give 837 01:05:46,840 --> 01:05:57,720 it to you. He's waiting on you. And listen, it's free to everyone who asks. It's free 838 01:05:57,720 --> 01:06:07,760 to everyone who asks. Tell your neighbor it's free. It's free. It's free. It's free. All 839 01:06:07,760 --> 01:06:15,280 you got to do is ask him. Cheryl, there's no greater news. There's no greater news. 840 01:06:15,280 --> 01:06:23,800 Lord, I need health. Lord, I need you. I need understanding. I need wisdom. Lord, I need 841 01:06:23,800 --> 01:06:29,800 a renewed mercy. I need a sound mind. Lord, I feel like I go up and down, up and down, 842 01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:35,480 up and down, up and down, up and down. Lord, give me a sound mind. I've had it with this. 843 01:06:35,480 --> 01:06:48,640 Can I tell you something? The enemy has a cage. We sing these songs and you're like, 844 01:06:48,640 --> 01:06:52,320 man, this church right here is Spirit filled. Boy, I tell you, break every chain, break 845 01:06:52,320 --> 01:07:00,000 every chain, break every chain. Right? You're like, man, this church, woo, man, this is 846 01:07:00,000 --> 01:07:09,480 some good music. Praise Jesus. But I want to tell you something. The cage that the enemy 847 01:07:09,480 --> 01:07:20,480 wants to tie you in is real. It's real. He wants to hem you up. You ever heard anybody 848 01:07:20,480 --> 01:07:25,160 say that? That he wants to hem you up. He wants to tie you in. He wants to put that 849 01:07:25,160 --> 01:07:30,320 gate around you. He wants to fence you in. The enemy has a cage and it's real. He wants 850 01:07:30,320 --> 01:07:35,440 to marry you, he wants to tie you, he wants to bind you to those old habits, he wants 851 01:07:35,440 --> 01:07:39,660 to bind you to those old beliefs, he wants to bind you to that old identity, he wants 852 01:07:39,660 --> 01:07:43,920 to bind you to those old choices, he wants to bind you to that old marriage, he wants 853 01:07:43,920 --> 01:07:48,680 to bind you to that old failure, he wants to bind you and hem you up, he wants you to 854 01:07:48,680 --> 01:07:54,540 be married to that muck and mire your whole life, he wants you to be buried in it. Literally. 855 01:07:54,540 --> 01:07:57,540 Jesus. 856 01:07:58,840 --> 01:08:04,680 But Jesus. But Jesus. 857 01:08:06,080 --> 01:08:12,020 There is power. In the name of 858 01:08:09,520 --> 01:08:18,600 Jesus. There is power. In the 859 01:08:12,100 --> 01:08:22,260 name of Jesus. To break every 860 01:08:18,660 --> 01:08:22,260 chain.

All the 939 01:11:27,480 --> 01:11:29,920 things that people did, they 940 01:11:28,820 --> 01:11:30,900 couldn't see where they were 941 01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:32,460 going. They didn't know what 942 01:11:30,960 --> 01:11:33,960 they were doing but in faith, 943 01:11:32,520 --> 01:11:35,760 they did what God told them to 944 01:11:34,020 --> 01:11:37,760 do and they saw the deliverance 945 01:11:35,840 --> 01:11:39,260 of the almighty because they 946 01:11:37,840 --> 01:11:42,940 walked in faith.

It's the starting 966 01:12:21,340 --> 01:12:25,780 line. Can I get a hallelujah? 967 01:12:23,840 --> 01:12:28,080 We're going to lay aside and 968 01:12:25,840 --> 01:12:30,660 we're going to run the race. 969 01:12:28,140 --> 01:12:32,280 It's not over at salvation. 970 01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:34,760 It's the beginning of something 971 01:12:32,360 --> 01:12:36,820 at salvation. The old is gone 972 01:12:34,820 --> 01:12:39,100 and the new has come. A new 973 01:12:36,900 --> 01:12:41,060 life, a new assignment.

Remember no longer the 981 01:12:57,720 --> 01:13:01,480 things of the past but lay 982 01:13:00,040 --> 01:13:03,020 aside every hindrance of the 983 01:13:01,540 --> 01:13:04,980 sin that has ensnared you and 984 01:13:03,080 --> 01:13:06,480 run with endurance the race that 985 01:13:05,060 --> 01:13:07,420 ties that it lies.

I can't 988 01:13:08,320 --> 01:13:11,020 leave here because I need you to 989 01:13:11,020 --> 01:13:14,880 know that it's a beautiful 990 01:13:12,880 --> 01:13:17,380 language but in the Greek, the 991 01:13:14,940 --> 01:13:19,580 Greek has this has this word, 992 01:13:17,440 --> 01:13:20,980 these pictures and in the Greek 993 01:13:19,660 --> 01:13:22,460 when you when you break this 994 01:13:21,060 --> 01:13:25,260 down in the new in the New 995 01:13:22,520 --> 01:13:27,420 Testament, this this sin that's 996 01:13:25,320 --> 01:13:29,060 so easily ensnared is this word 997 01:13:27,500 --> 01:13:30,460 picture of of literally all 998 01:13:29,120 --> 01:13:32,460 listen to this vines that grow 999 01:13:30,540 --> 01:13:34,000 up through the ground and 1000 01:13:32,540 --> 01:13:36,840 literally tie themselves around 1001 01:13:34,060 --> 01:13:38,140 your legs. It's like a vine 1002 01:13:36,900 --> 01:13:39,840 that's holding you to the 1003 01:13:39,840 --> 01:13:42,980 ground. It's like that cage. It 1004 01:13:41,540 --> 01:13:44,480 is. It's like that cage I 1005 01:13:43,040 --> 01:13:46,080 described and it's that sin 1006 01:13:44,540 --> 01:13:49,760 that's ensnaring you. It is a 1007 01:13:46,140 --> 01:13:49,760 trap. 1008 01:13:50,560 --> 01:13:56,860 verse two. Let's move let's move 1009 01:13:54,520 --> 01:14:00,260 forward and keep our eyes on 1010 01:13:56,920 --> 01:14:01,900 Jesus. The source and 1011 01:14:00,320 --> 01:14:03,700 perfecter of our faith. So, 1012 01:14:01,960 --> 01:14:05,700 some some translations say the 1013 01:14:03,760 --> 01:14:07,200 founder and the perfecter of our 1014 01:14:05,760 --> 01:14:08,700 faith. Sometimes when we when 1015 01:14:08,700 --> 01:14:11,620 we call them the founders of the 1016 01:14:10,160 --> 01:14:13,900 faith, no, there's one founder 1017 01:14:11,700 --> 01:14:15,900 of the faith. His name is 1018 01:14:13,960 --> 01:14:17,160 Jesus. They're they're the 1019 01:14:15,960 --> 01:14:18,660 patriarchs of the faith. 1020 01:14:17,240 --> 01:14:22,140 They're not the founders of the 1021 01:14:18,740 --> 01:14:24,640 faith. Jesus is the founder and 1022 01:14:22,200 --> 01:14:26,340 the perfecter of our faith and 1023 01:14:24,700 --> 01:14:28,280 the joy that lays before him. 1024 01:14:26,400 --> 01:14:30,080 He endured the cross, 1025 01:14:28,340 --> 01:14:31,380 despising its shame, and he's 1026 01:14:30,140 --> 01:14:33,980 set down at the right hand of 1027 01:14:31,440 --> 01:14:35,620 the throne of God. Can we get a 1028 01:14:35,620 --> 01:14:40,540 round of applause for Jesus? 1029 01:14:37,260 --> 01:14:41,440 Yes, Lord. Guys, I want you to 1030 01:14:40,600 --> 01:14:43,240 know something when when when 1031 01:14:41,500 --> 01:14:44,900 it says that he despised the 1032 01:14:43,300 --> 01:14:46,340 shame, he didn't despise that 1033 01:14:44,980 --> 01:14:47,640 shame for himself. I know a lot 1034 01:14:46,400 --> 01:14:49,140 of times we're like, man, Jesus 1035 01:14:47,700 --> 01:14:50,540 lived that sinless life and man, 1036 01:14:49,200 --> 01:14:51,940 he went up on that cross, 1037 01:14:50,620 --> 01:14:53,220 despising that shame. Y'all, can 1038 01:14:52,020 --> 01:14:56,680 I tell you something? He 1039 01:14:53,280 --> 01:14:57,160 despised the shame for you. 1040 01:14:56,760 --> 01:15:01,020 Somebody needs to hear that 1041 01:14:57,220 --> 01:15:03,760 this morning. He despised the 1042 01:15:03,760 --> 01:15:09,040 shame for you. He despised the 1043 01:15:06,700 --> 01:15:11,240 shame. He despised the 1044 01:15:09,100 --> 01:15:13,040 separation. He despised the 1045 01:15:11,300 --> 01:15:14,740 penalty of sin. He despised 1046 01:15:13,120 --> 01:15:16,420 those things of rejection. He 1047 01:15:14,820 --> 01:15:17,880 despised those things that are 1048 01:15:16,480 --> 01:15:19,980 coming against and holding you 1049 01:15:17,940 --> 01:15:21,860 back. He despised those things 1050 01:15:20,060 --> 01:15:23,760 and therefore he went to the 1051 01:15:21,920 --> 01:15:25,560 cross and he gave his life and 1052 01:15:23,820 --> 01:15:27,260 he did everything that was 1053 01:15:25,620 --> 01:15:28,560 required and now he's sitting 1054 01:15:27,320 --> 01:15:31,660 at the right hand of the father 1055 01:15:28,620 --> 01:15:33,060 and because of him, we too are 1056 01:15:33,060 --> 01:15:36,040 in the right hand of the father. 1057 01:15:34,540 --> 01:15:37,780 Can I get a witness?

It begins right here. It 1109 01:17:59,260 --> 01:18:01,740 begins so that we can 1110 01:18:00,800 --> 01:18:03,240 understand. It's time for it to 1111 01:18:01,800 --> 01:18:05,740 transfer this morning from from 1112 01:18:03,300 --> 01:18:07,240 a mind understanding to a heart 1113 01:18:05,800 --> 01:18:08,740 understanding that we can 1114 01:18:07,300 --> 01:18:10,240 understand that I'm listen, I'm 1115 01:18:08,800 --> 01:18:11,740 no longer married. I'm no longer 1116 01:18:10,320 --> 01:18:13,180 in covenant to the old things. 1117 01:18:11,820 --> 01:18:15,620 Let's put on the board. It's 1118 01:18:13,240 --> 01:18:18,120 time for a new you. It's time. 1119 01:18:15,680 --> 01:18:19,380 Today is the day and I'm just 1120 01:18:19,380 --> 01:18:22,620 gonna say that we would all 1121 01:18:20,760 --> 01:18:24,320 stand and we're gonna come and 1122 01:18:22,680 --> 01:18:26,820 we're gonna grab communion this 1123 01:18:24,400 --> 01:18:28,320 morning and we're gonna end this 1124 01:18:26,900 --> 01:18:30,300 with sharing some intimate 1125 01:18:28,400 --> 01:18:31,940 thoughts with the lord. Did I 1126 01:18:30,360 --> 01:18:35,300 mention that all we have to do 1127 01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:39,300 is ask? Did I mention that? 1128 01:18:35,360 --> 01:18:42,340 Like the new life, the new you 1129 01:18:39,380 --> 01:18:45,340 is waiting. And all we have to 1130 01:18:42,400 --> 01:18:48,020 do is ask. So, this morning, I'm 1131 01:18:48,020 --> 01:18:52,580 gonna come this way. There's the 1132 01:18:50,580 --> 01:18:54,020 elements there here. If you're 1133 01:18:52,660 --> 01:18:55,880 on this side, you can come this 1134 01:18:54,080 --> 01:18:57,380 way. There's elements here. Take 1135 01:18:55,960 --> 01:19:00,020 them back to your seat and then 1136 01:19:00,020 --> 01:19:23,900 come forward. 1137 01:20:23,900 --> 01:20:52,900 You can stay under me, seated, either way. 1138 01:20:52,900 --> 01:20:59,900 I want to start with this verse. 1139 01:20:59,900 --> 01:21:07,900 We hold the body of the Lord and we hold the blood. 1140 01:21:07,900 --> 01:21:12,900 1 John 1.9. 1141 01:21:12,900 --> 01:21:28,900 He says if we confess our sins, if we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us of our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1142 01:21:28,900 --> 01:21:30,900 Not some of it. 1143 01:21:30,900 --> 01:21:32,900 Church, listen. 1144 01:21:32,900 --> 01:21:45,900 The scripture says that if we confess our sins, if we confess our shortcomings, when we come to him, just as the scripture says, Jesus said if you simply ask, you'll receive. 1145 01:21:45,900 --> 01:21:47,900 This morning is the time. 1146 01:21:47,900 --> 01:21:50,900 Right now. 1147 01:21:50,900 --> 01:21:52,900 You may say, Pastor, I'm not sure what I'm supposed to ask for. 1148 01:21:52,900 --> 01:21:54,900 I want to ask. 1149 01:21:54,900 --> 01:21:59,900 But I don't really know that I know what to ask for. 1150 01:21:59,900 --> 01:22:02,900 How about that new life? 1151 01:22:02,900 --> 01:22:05,900 How about that new beginning? 1152 01:22:05,900 --> 01:22:11,900 How about that place where you just say, you know, Lord, I need to confess to you. 1153 01:22:11,900 --> 01:22:15,900 I know I've been walking in old habits and old beliefs. 1154 01:22:15,900 --> 01:22:21,900 I've been walking in old failures. 1155 01:22:21,900 --> 01:22:23,900 I've been walking in regret. 1156 01:22:23,900 --> 01:22:29,900 How many of us are walking and we're just and we're tied to regret like something that we feel like we missed. 1157 01:22:29,900 --> 01:22:33,900 But the scripture says the best of your life is ahead of you. 1158 01:22:33,900 --> 01:22:36,900 This morning, I want you to believe that. 1159 01:22:36,900 --> 01:22:41,900 Confess it to him and say, you know what, Lord, I've even been agreeing. 1160 01:22:41,900 --> 01:22:45,900 I've been agreeing with the bread. 1161 01:22:45,900 --> 01:22:48,900 I've been agreeing with rejection. 1162 01:22:48,900 --> 01:22:51,900 I've been agreeing with abandonment. 1163 01:22:51,900 --> 01:22:54,900 Lord, I need you to cleanse me. 1164 01:22:54,900 --> 01:23:01,900 Lord, forgive me. 1165 01:23:01,900 --> 01:23:03,900 Doubt. 1166 01:23:03,900 --> 01:23:05,900 Fear. 1167 01:23:05,900 --> 01:23:06,900 Be gone. 1168 01:23:06,900 --> 01:23:15,900 In Jesus' name. 1169 01:23:15,900 --> 01:23:25,900 I'm just walking through this season. 1170 01:23:25,900 --> 01:23:35,900 If it is a season that keeps repeating in your life, it is a cycle. 1171 01:23:35,900 --> 01:23:41,900 And so, Lord, today we want to break off every cycle, Father God, that is not from heaven. 1172 01:23:41,900 --> 01:23:45,900 Over every person in this room. 1173 01:23:45,900 --> 01:23:50,900 Lord, we embrace your seasons and we embrace the newness, Father God, of what you have for us. 1174 01:23:50,900 --> 01:23:52,900 We pick up the new assignments. 1175 01:23:52,900 --> 01:23:54,900 We pick up the new mantles, Father God. 1176 01:23:54,900 --> 01:24:01,900 But we break off any old cycle, Father God, that is not from you in the mighty name of Jesus. 1177 01:24:01,900 --> 01:24:07,900 So today, as we've talked about, it's time for a new life. 1178 01:24:07,900 --> 01:24:12,900 There is no guilt, shame, or condemnation in this room. 1179 01:24:12,900 --> 01:24:19,900 So anybody who needs to come to the altar after we get done with communion, it's open. 1180 01:24:19,900 --> 01:24:22,900 But also, there is a place for baptism for you today. 1181 01:24:22,900 --> 01:24:25,900 It doesn't matter if you've been baptized before. 1182 01:24:25,900 --> 01:24:28,900 There is no guilt, shame, or condemnation. 1183 01:24:28,900 --> 01:24:34,900 If you feel a stirring in your belly that you are to come and you are to be baptized, then you know what? 1184 01:24:34,900 --> 01:24:36,900 Who would condemn you of that? 1185 01:24:36,900 --> 01:24:40,900 It isn't Jesus that would condemn you of that. 1186 01:24:40,900 --> 01:24:45,900 If there is a place in you where you feel like there is a new start that is needed today, 1187 01:24:45,900 --> 01:24:47,900 know that the baptismal is open. 1188 01:24:47,900 --> 01:24:49,900 We have items for you. 1189 01:24:49,900 --> 01:24:51,900 We are here for you. 1190 01:24:51,900 --> 01:24:53,900 Jesus is here for you. 1191 01:24:53,900 --> 01:24:58,900 We have victory in all things. 1192 01:24:58,900 --> 01:25:05,900 So before we partake in the elements, I want to just affirm in the scripture what Shannon is saying. 1193 01:25:05,900 --> 01:25:12,900 James 5 verse 16 says, Therefore, if we confess our sins to each other, 1194 01:25:12,900 --> 01:25:17,900 if we pray for one another so that we can be what? 1195 01:25:17,900 --> 01:25:18,900 Healed. 1196 01:25:18,900 --> 01:25:21,900 And I just want to speak that over this room. 1197 01:25:21,900 --> 01:25:23,900 I want to speak that over this communion this morning. 1198 01:25:23,900 --> 01:25:28,900 I want to speak that over this time and over this place, over this space, over this transition. 1199 01:25:28,900 --> 01:25:30,900 I want to speak it over the new life. 1200 01:25:30,900 --> 01:25:34,900 It is that place where we must confess our sins to our Father in heaven, 1201 01:25:34,900 --> 01:25:36,900 that we must confess to one another. 1202 01:25:36,900 --> 01:25:38,900 We must say yes to Jesus. 1203 01:25:38,900 --> 01:25:40,900 Some of us need to do it publicly. 1204 01:25:40,900 --> 01:25:42,900 Some of us need to say yes and we need to be baptized. 1205 01:25:42,900 --> 01:25:46,900 And you know that today is your day, that you need to come down and say, you know what? 1206 01:25:46,900 --> 01:25:48,900 I received the new beginning. 1207 01:25:48,900 --> 01:25:49,900 I received the new life. 1208 01:25:49,900 --> 01:25:51,900 I'm saying yes to the plans of God. 1209 01:25:51,900 --> 01:25:55,900 And if that's you, I need you to come after we do communion. 1210 01:25:55,900 --> 01:25:59,900 I need you to grab somebody by the hand and say yes to Jesus. 1211 01:25:59,900 --> 01:26:01,900 Say yes to the new life. 1212 01:26:01,900 --> 01:26:03,900 Say yes to a new birth. 1213 01:26:03,900 --> 01:26:05,900 Say yes to being born again. 1214 01:26:05,900 --> 01:26:07,900 Say yes to freedom. 1215 01:26:07,900 --> 01:26:13,900 Say no to the cage, to those things that are binding you and tying you down. 1216 01:26:13,900 --> 01:26:20,900 Lay aside the things that so easily, easily ensnare you. 1217 01:26:20,900 --> 01:26:23,900 So Lord, we thank you for the freedom. 1218 01:26:23,900 --> 01:26:29,900 This is His body that is broken for us. 1219 01:26:29,900 --> 01:26:35,900 And He said this is it, this is my body that was broken for you and as you eat it, do this in remembrance of me. 1220 01:26:59,900 --> 01:27:04,900 Nothing but the blood of Jesus and the precious blood of Jesus. 1221 01:27:04,900 --> 01:27:08,900 We thank you, Father God, for the precious blood of Jesus, Father God. 1222 01:27:08,900 --> 01:27:18,900 We plead the blood of Jesus, Father God, over everyone under the sound of our voices this morning, Father God. 1223 01:27:18,900 --> 01:27:26,900 Lord, over their minds, over their hearts, over their emotions, Father God. 1224 01:27:26,900 --> 01:27:34,900 Lord Jesus, we take this blood, Father God, that you have given us, where forgiveness was poured out, Father God. 1225 01:27:34,900 --> 01:27:39,900 And we plead it over the city of God's fill and we plead it over our nation, Father God. 1226 01:27:39,900 --> 01:27:44,900 That the blood of Jesus Christ would run through the streets in this nation, Father God. 1227 01:27:44,900 --> 01:27:46,900 That it would cover every home, Father God. 1228 01:27:46,900 --> 01:27:51,900 That no one cannot be under the blood of Jesus. 1229 01:27:51,900 --> 01:27:58,900 Let that be a revelation, Father God, that comes to the hearts and minds of people today, Lord Jesus. 1230 01:27:58,900 --> 01:28:03,900 We praise you, Father God, for the power in your blood. 1231 01:28:03,900 --> 01:28:06,900 We praise you, Lord. 1232 01:28:06,900 --> 01:28:11,900 Jesus took the cup and He raised it and He said this is my blood. 1233 01:28:11,900 --> 01:28:25,900 It's poured out for the sins of the entire world and as you drink it, it's in your mouth. 1234 01:28:25,900 --> 01:28:29,900 So we're going to do a two-fold invitation. 1235 01:28:29,900 --> 01:28:32,900 The first one is for baptism today. 1236 01:28:32,900 --> 01:28:40,900 If there's somebody in here and you're like, you know what, I want to get baptized and I'm ready to get baptized into a new life right now. 1237 01:28:40,900 --> 01:28:42,900 Right now. 1238 01:28:42,900 --> 01:28:45,900 If that's you, I'm going to ask you to leave your seat and come down. 1239 01:28:45,900 --> 01:28:47,900 Unashamedly. 1240 01:28:47,900 --> 01:28:49,900 If that's you. 1241 01:28:49,900 --> 01:28:51,900 Alright. 1242 01:28:51,900 --> 01:28:53,900 Well, I also want to encourage you. 1243 01:28:53,900 --> 01:28:55,900 I want to encourage you. 1244 01:28:55,900 --> 01:28:59,900 That baptistry, 600 gallons, I want to fill it up every Sunday. 1245 01:28:59,900 --> 01:29:02,900 It's 600 gallons of water. 1246 01:29:02,900 --> 01:29:07,900 Jesus owns all the water on the entire planet. 1247 01:29:07,900 --> 01:29:14,900 And if you are ready for baptism and you want to schedule that, we're going to have our prayer team come down now. 1248 01:29:14,900 --> 01:29:17,900 If you guys are here. 1249 01:29:17,900 --> 01:29:20,900 And listen, if you want prayer this morning. 1250 01:29:20,900 --> 01:29:24,900 Maybe this morning, whatever I was reading that James 5 16, I just want to encourage you. 1251 01:29:24,900 --> 01:29:27,900 I want to read it one more time. 1252 01:29:27,900 --> 01:29:35,900 If you confess your sins to one another and pray for each other so that we can be healed. 1253 01:29:35,900 --> 01:29:38,900 You know, it doesn't talk about healing in the first one. 1254 01:29:38,900 --> 01:29:43,900 The Lord is, he's faithful and he'll forgive you of all unrighteousness. 1255 01:29:43,900 --> 01:29:50,900 But the scripture here says that when we come and we confess our sins to our brothers and our sisters. 1256 01:29:50,900 --> 01:29:53,900 It says that, listen, healing comes. 1257 01:29:53,900 --> 01:29:56,900 Healing comes. 1258 01:29:56,900 --> 01:30:00,900 If you just want anything, if there's movement in your life this morning. 1259 01:30:00,900 --> 01:30:07,900 We're going to dismiss you guys can pick up your children and you guys can go about your day. 1260 01:30:07,900 --> 01:30:14,900 But I just want to encourage you that if you want prayer this morning for any reason, come and receive healing. 1261 01:30:14,900 --> 01:30:20,900 Come and receive healing. 1262 01:30:20,900 --> 01:30:23,900 And I'm just going to seal everything that was done here this morning. 1263 01:30:23,900 --> 01:30:25,900 So, Father God, we just thank you. 1264 01:30:25,900 --> 01:30:28,900 We thank you, Father God, for the newness. 1265 01:30:28,900 --> 01:30:32,900 Father God, we thank you, Lord, for the healing, Father God. 1266 01:30:32,900 --> 01:30:38,900 We thank you, Lord, that just as Brad shared earlier that there are no repercussions. 1267 01:30:38,900 --> 01:30:43,900 Father God, for what has been broken today has been broken off in the mighty name of Jesus. 1268 01:30:43,900 --> 01:30:46,900 That we don't choose to
