| Mike Signorelli - Stop Explaining Yourself to Demons in People (Part 2) | October 8, 2025
- So? so a lot of us need to go back to the bible,
- 00:00:01.021 --> 00:00:04.324
- Particularly matthew, mark, luke and john, which are the gospels.
- 00:00:05.525 --> 00:00:08.228
- And what we need to do is we need to.
- 00:00:09.029 --> 00:00:10.330
- We need to read the commands of christ.
- 00:00:10.330 --> 00:00:12.399
- And we need to ask ourselves, am i reading commands like they're suggestions?
- 00:00:12.399 --> 00:00:16.069
- And if so, what would happen in my life if i actually did what he said to do?
- 00:00:17.570 --> 00:00:20.807
- Do not is a command, and the reason why i spent so much time just on two words
- 00:00:22.375 --> 00:00:25.812
- Is because most of the things that are beneficial in scripture
- 00:00:27.013 --> 00:00:29.949
- Are very easy to understand, but they're very hard to do.
- 00:00:31.084 --> 00:00:33.420
- So stop explaining yourself to demons.
- 00:00:34.254 --> 00:00:38.792
- This is the solution.
- 00:00:39.292 --> 00:00:40.860
- Silence.
- 00:00:40.860 --> 00:00:42.228
- So do not give what is sacred to dogs or pigs.
- 00:00:42.228 --> 00:00:46.733
- So that means that there's two kinds of human beings and or one type of human
- 00:00:48.201 --> 00:00:51.071
- Being to two different explanations dogs or pigs. but.
- 00:00:51.071 --> 00:00:56.709
- We have the best conversations.
- 00:00:57.343 --> 00:01:00.947
- But they've been there for me.
- 00:01:01.581 --> 00:01:04.851
- But. well, you know,
- 00:01:05.318 --> 00:01:06.453
- They're just a little negative.
- 00:01:06.453 --> 00:01:10.423
- The way you determine if,
- 00:01:10.990 --> 00:01:12.725
- Listen, a dog or a pig
- 00:01:12.725 --> 00:01:16.096
- Is, is a creature that doesn't hunt.
- 00:01:16.863 --> 00:01:19.299
- They're always dependent on being fed.
- 00:01:20.066 --> 00:01:22.435
- How many people claim to get saved?
- 00:01:22.435 --> 00:01:25.138
- But their cravings never change.
- 00:01:25.138 --> 00:01:27.540
- You can scroll on your phone
- 00:01:27.540 --> 00:01:29.342
- For four hours, but you can't spend four minutes in prayer.
- 00:01:29.342 --> 00:01:33.213
- Something's gotta change because you say, if it was about me,
- 00:01:34.380 --> 00:01:36.749
- I would keep scrolling.
- 00:01:36.749 --> 00:01:38.184
- But it's about distraction.
- 00:01:38.184 --> 00:01:39.919
- So let me just scroll.
- 00:01:39.919 --> 00:01:41.688
- Oh come on, somebody.
- 00:01:41.688 --> 00:01:49.295
- Oh. number one.
- 00:01:49.662 --> 00:01:55.101
- Ephesians chapter six.
- 00:01:55.602 --> 00:01:57.537
- We know this verse, but we don't read it in context.
- 00:01:57.537 --> 00:02:00.473
- Let me just read it to you for our struggle.
- 00:02:00.473 --> 00:02:03.376
- It's not against flesh and blood, but it's against what?
- 00:02:03.376 --> 00:02:06.846
- Let's start with this. rulers.
- 00:02:07.480 --> 00:02:08.648
- Everybody say rulers, okay? it's.
- 00:02:08.648 --> 00:02:11.317
- Our struggle is against rulers.
- 00:02:11.317 --> 00:02:12.819
- Okay, we got that against the authorities.
- 00:02:12.819 --> 00:02:15.388
- Everybody say authorities against the powers of the dark world.
- 00:02:15.388 --> 00:02:21.528
- Let's just say that
- 00:02:21.995 --> 00:02:23.129
- All out powers of the dark world.
- 00:02:23.129 --> 00:02:26.299
- Do you hear that?
- 00:02:26.733 --> 00:02:29.202
- Like, is the bible true or is it not true?
- 00:02:29.202 --> 00:02:32.405
- There are powers of the dark world.
- 00:02:33.139 --> 00:02:35.275
- Where's the dark world?
- 00:02:35.275 --> 00:02:37.410
- It's interdimensional.
- 00:02:37.410 --> 00:02:39.479
- It's interacting with the physical world.
- 00:02:39.479 --> 00:02:42.215
- You can't see the dark world, but you are experiencing it all around you
- 00:02:42.215 --> 00:02:46.553
- At school, on the job.
- 00:02:47.053 --> 00:02:48.955
- But christians are ignored because we read about, oh, we don't fighting.
- 00:02:48.955 --> 00:02:51.057
- Every time we quote the scripture, we emphasize so much on.
- 00:02:51.057 --> 00:02:54.794
- We don't fight against flesh and blood that we miss the whole reality
- 00:02:54.794 --> 00:02:58.331
- Of rulers, authorities.
- 00:02:58.331 --> 00:03:01.634
- And then it says powers of this dark world.
- 00:03:02.502 --> 00:03:06.239
- So there's this dark world.
- 00:03:06.839 --> 00:03:08.608
- Then it says against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
- 00:03:08.608 --> 00:03:13.846
- So there is at least two realms.
- 00:03:14.480 --> 00:03:16.182
- Can i go deep for like two minutes before the band comes up?
- 00:03:16.182 --> 00:03:19.319
- Because you guys like bible? my primary,
- 00:03:20.186 --> 00:03:21.955
- My primary way of serving our church is to teach you the scriptures.
- 00:03:23.323 --> 00:03:26.326
- Rightly divided.
- 00:03:26.326 --> 00:03:28.261
- That's what i'm doing when i'm preaching as we're learning the bible.
- 00:03:28.261 --> 00:03:30.763
- So in ephesians six there's two domains that are mentioned.
- 00:03:31.931 --> 00:03:35.969
- There's the evil world, and then there's the heavenly realms.
- 00:03:37.136 --> 00:03:39.806
- And so you've got to understand that there is a hierarchy of demonic activity.
- 00:03:41.341 --> 00:03:44.677
- What is hierarchy?
- 00:03:44.677 --> 00:03:45.812
- A structure a formal structure.
- 00:03:45.812 --> 00:03:49.349
- And it's operating down on the ground level all the way up into the heavenlies.
- 00:03:50.917 --> 00:03:54.654
- And, you know, miles monroe speculated,
- 00:03:55.488 --> 00:03:58.825
- Isn't it interesting that radio towers and cell phone signals are in the air,
- 00:04:00.360 --> 00:04:03.263
- That television comes from satellites in the air,
- 00:04:04.264 --> 00:04:07.166
- There's something atmospheric, there's information that's transmitted.
- 00:04:08.601 --> 00:04:10.937
- And so our struggle as christians is not against people,
- 00:04:12.105 --> 00:04:14.807
- But it's against all
- 00:04:15.275 --> 00:04:16.976
- These layers of demonic activity that are happening all around us.
- 00:04:16.976 --> 00:04:19.612
- So we must focus on the right fight.
- 00:04:20.380 --> 00:04:23.182
- And i think the biggest distraction that the enemy deploys
- 00:04:24.417 --> 00:04:26.786
- Is to put this illusion in front of us, to cause us to get so distracted
- 00:04:26.786 --> 00:04:31.457
- Talking about people that we miss principalities.
- 00:04:31.457 --> 00:04:34.794
- So we you know what i'm saying?
- 00:04:35.428 --> 00:04:37.163
- Like, we get so concerned with who's righteous
- 00:04:37.163 --> 00:04:40.833
- That we don't ask the question, who's the ruler?
- 00:04:41.801 --> 00:04:43.803
- Like we gotta get focused on the right thing because you can literally die.
- 00:04:43.803 --> 00:04:48.608
- See, here's what happens when i say die.
- 00:04:49.442 --> 00:04:50.610
- I mean your purpose, your destiny.
- 00:04:50.610 --> 00:04:52.345
- You can step outside of the provision and protection
- 00:04:52.345 --> 00:04:55.682
- And favor of god, and you can go fight a battle.
- 00:04:55.682 --> 00:04:58.885
- He never assigns you.
- 00:04:58.885 --> 00:05:00.620
- And when you do that, you come out from underneath his covering.
- 00:05:00.620 --> 00:05:03.523
- So it's like there's protection.
- 00:05:04.157 --> 00:05:05.692
- People are like, oh, i can't believe you went into colombia.
- 00:05:05.692 --> 00:05:08.394
- And you were in medellin, and you were in all these a gang infested.
- 00:05:08.394 --> 00:05:11.664
- And that was so dangerous.
- 00:05:12.231 --> 00:05:13.533
- Oh, i can't believe you went into ukraine.
- 00:05:13.533 --> 00:05:15.068
- And it's so dangerous. and i always tell them the same thing.
- 00:05:15.068 --> 00:05:17.737
- The most dangerous place on earth is not a geographic location.
- 00:05:17.737 --> 00:05:22.075
- The most dangerous place on earth is to be outside of the will of god.
- 00:05:23.509 --> 00:05:29.048
- Is god called me to him?
- 00:05:29.549 --> 00:05:30.917
- That is, he didn't.
- 00:05:30.917 --> 00:05:32.085
- Come on, let's rock and roll.
- 00:05:32.085 --> 00:05:34.120
- You got your guns loaded? i got mine too.
- 00:05:34.120 --> 00:05:37.423
- The weapons of my warfare are not carnal,
- 00:05:38.291 --> 00:05:39.859
- But mighty through god to the pulling down of strongholds.
- 00:05:39.859 --> 00:05:43.429
- So it's like it's about the assignment.
- 00:05:44.297 --> 00:05:45.598
- Did god call you to it?
- 00:05:45.598 --> 00:05:47.100
- If god told me to you, you go to ukraine.
- 00:05:47.100 --> 00:05:49.369
- Who can be against me?
- 00:05:49.369 --> 00:05:50.770
- It's about what god told you to do.
- 00:05:50.770 --> 00:05:52.805
- But there's christians that come out of the assignment
- 00:05:52.805 --> 00:05:55.775
- And they go and they fight an assignment god didn't give him
- 00:05:55.775 --> 00:05:58.644
- And the cost is, is is literally your purpose.
- 00:05:58.644 --> 00:06:02.682
- Literally.
- 00:06:02.982 --> 00:06:04.517
- And i just i made up my mind that i'm not going to sacrifice
- 00:06:04.517 --> 00:06:07.820
- The calling and destiny that god has for me over a conversation.
- 00:06:09.055 --> 00:06:12.725
- He hasn't called me to.
- 00:06:12.725 --> 00:06:17.663
- In luke chapter eight,
- 00:06:18.164 --> 00:06:20.233
- Verse two, it says that mary magdalene had seven demons.
- 00:06:20.233 --> 00:06:24.337
- So let me ask you the question before christ delivered her
- 00:06:25.505 --> 00:06:28.875
- When you were talking to mary, how many people were you actually talking to?
- 00:06:30.309 --> 00:06:33.579
- Eight.
- 00:06:33.813 --> 00:06:35.348
- Some of you said seven, but you're talking to eight.
- 00:06:35.348 --> 00:06:38.184
- You were talking to seven demons in her and her.
- 00:06:38.184 --> 00:06:41.788
- There was another man who had legion, for they are many.
- 00:06:42.922 --> 00:06:46.959
- Some of you think you're having a one on one,
- 00:06:47.927 --> 00:06:49.695
- But you're having a one on eight.
- 00:06:49.695 --> 00:06:55.101
- You're giving the sacred things of god
- 00:06:55.902 --> 00:06:58.571
- The plans and strategies of heaven to dogs and pigs.
- 00:06:58.571 --> 00:07:02.675
- Wait a second.
- 00:07:03.042 --> 00:07:03.843
- Here's a revelation
- 00:07:03.843 --> 00:07:05.812
- When legion was going to get cast out, what did they ask jesus to put them in?
- 00:07:05.812 --> 00:07:15.121
- Put me in.
- 00:07:15.421 --> 00:07:16.155
- In pigs.
- 00:07:16.155 --> 00:07:17.623
- Because there's something about the nature of a pig
- 00:07:17.623 --> 00:07:20.159
- That feels familiar to a demon.
- 00:07:20.159 --> 00:07:23.396
- And then i can drown these pigs.
- 00:07:24.030 --> 00:07:25.531
- Watch. so this is a legal exchange.
- 00:07:25.531 --> 00:07:28.534
- Jesus has authority, and they're saying, jesus, please
- 00:07:28.534 --> 00:07:31.571
- Don't send us to outer darkness.
- 00:07:31.571 --> 00:07:33.773
- And that's really why deliverance ministers send demons to outer darkness.
- 00:07:33.773 --> 00:07:37.477
- We don't necessarily know where to send them.
- 00:07:37.477 --> 00:07:39.212
- We just know they don't want to go there.
- 00:07:39.212 --> 00:07:40.746
- And i like sending demons places they don't want to go.
- 00:07:40.746 --> 00:07:44.016
- So when everyone's like, why do you send demons outer darkness?
- 00:07:45.218 --> 00:07:46.385
- Where'd you get that?
- 00:07:46.385 --> 00:07:47.687
- Like jesus never said explicitly to do it.
- 00:07:47.687 --> 00:07:50.189
- But we do have a record of demons saying, don't send me there.
- 00:07:50.189 --> 00:07:53.226
- And i just think it's on to send them there.
- 00:07:53.226 --> 00:07:58.164
- Is real talk.
- 00:07:58.531 --> 00:08:00.299
- We know we're supposed to cast him out.
- 00:08:00.299 --> 00:08:02.268
- If we do have the authority to send him
- 00:08:02.268 --> 00:08:04.136
- Anywhere, i'm sending them where they don't want to go.
- 00:08:04.136 --> 00:08:06.739
- But then what they say is, send me the pigs. why?
- 00:08:06.739 --> 00:08:09.575
- Because then when they get sent to pigs, they now have the legal
- 00:08:09.575 --> 00:08:13.479
- Right to those pigs bodies to do whatever they want with the pigs body.
- 00:08:13.479 --> 00:08:17.416
- And now this is also interesting because pigs, they don't have a will.
- 00:08:18.818 --> 00:08:22.021
- They have an instinct.
- 00:08:22.021 --> 00:08:23.422
- And these demons were still able to take that animal
- 00:08:23.422 --> 00:08:26.425
- And control that animal to go into the water and drowned itself.
- 00:08:26.425 --> 00:08:30.196
- And then when that happened, that the pigs died, which was
- 00:08:31.364 --> 00:08:34.367
- Put that demon back in circulation.
- 00:08:35.167 --> 00:08:37.603
- And how do we know this?
- 00:08:38.104 --> 00:08:39.906
- Because the scriptures say that when you cast the demon out, they roam
- 00:08:39.906 --> 00:08:42.975
- Around arid places and they come back and it could be seven times worse.
- 00:08:42.975 --> 00:08:47.680
- And what they find, it swept and clean.
- 00:08:48.548 --> 00:08:50.883
- So really the question the demons were actually,
- 00:08:51.851 --> 00:08:53.920
- Man, i'm just getting revelation on stage.
- 00:08:54.820 --> 00:08:56.222
- Let's just have a bible study. okay? listen, listen.
- 00:08:56.222 --> 00:08:59.892
- So they asked jesus to be in the pigs.
- 00:09:00.726 --> 00:09:03.429
- Then they go into the pigs, they drown.
- 00:09:03.429 --> 00:09:05.665
- So then legally, they have the ability to roam this area, to find someone else.
- 00:09:05.665 --> 00:09:09.835
- But i wonder, and i have no way of proving this.
- 00:09:10.803 --> 00:09:12.772
- But i wonder if jesus said, i'm getting ready to raise up so many demon slayers
- 00:09:12.772 --> 00:09:16.742
- That you may inhabit another body, but i'm going to train an army
- 00:09:18.077 --> 00:09:19.512
- On how to cast him out. so i'm going to checkmate you.
- 00:09:19.512 --> 00:09:22.214
- And you think you won a victory by going into pigs to then
- 00:09:22.214 --> 00:09:25.985
- Kill them to go into humans?
- 00:09:26.586 --> 00:09:28.187
- But i'm raising up an army to cast demons out of humans, to.
- 00:09:28.187 --> 00:09:31.090
- And you.
- 00:09:31.357 --> 00:09:32.625
- And it's a checkmate. move on them. but.
- 00:09:32.625 --> 00:09:34.994
- But the real meat of what i'm trying to help you understand
- 00:09:36.195 --> 00:09:38.264
- Is that you're on the job speaking.
- 00:09:39.065 --> 00:09:40.800
- Not everybody has demons. i want to be fair.
- 00:09:40.800 --> 00:09:43.803
- Theologically, i don't believe everybody is walking around just filled with demons.
- 00:09:43.803 --> 00:09:48.541
- But i do believe that when jesus says that the man with legions had many.
- 00:09:50.009 --> 00:09:52.612
- If if thousands of demons could inhabit one person.
- 00:09:53.679 --> 00:09:57.984
- And i know i've said this before on the stage, but what if the
- 00:09:59.185 --> 00:10:02.054
- What if mary magdalene likes you but her seven demons don't?
- 00:10:02.054 --> 00:10:06.726
- If you're near one of our campuses,
- 00:10:07.460 --> 00:10:09.629
- I want to give you a personal invitation to check out v1 church.
- 00:10:09.629 --> 00:10:14.533
- There's no way i can describe the atmosphere of revival in the experience.
- 00:10:16.002 --> 00:10:19.138
- If you've never driven up or driven in, you know,
- 00:10:20.139 --> 00:10:22.708
- Let me just tell you it's a powerful atmosphere
- 00:10:23.676 --> 00:10:25.544
- And a bunch of people who really love the lord and want to get to know you.
- 00:10:25.544 --> 00:10:29.415
- So let us know when you're coming and i'll see you at v1 church.
- 00:10:29.415 --> 00:10:38.190
- What if mary magdalene likes you but her seven demons don't,
- 00:10:39.358 --> 00:10:43.462
- Some of you don't even.
- 00:10:43.963 --> 00:10:45.364
- I matter of fact, and i probably am saying too much,
- 00:10:45.364 --> 00:10:47.833
- So the band probably should come up now.
- 00:10:47.833 --> 00:10:50.302
- But there are pastors
- 00:10:50.803 --> 00:10:52.304
- Recently who got deliverance,
- 00:10:52.304 --> 00:10:55.875
- And after the deliverance was over, hit me up and said, i never understood you.
- 00:10:57.443 --> 00:11:00.346
- I talked about about you, i gossiped about you.
- 00:11:01.347 --> 00:11:03.015
- But as soon as i got delivered from demons, immediately
- 00:11:03.015 --> 00:11:06.118
- My heart turned to compassion towards you and i want to say i'm sorry.
- 00:11:06.118 --> 00:11:09.588
- So what it was, is they liked me.
- 00:11:10.322 --> 00:11:13.192
- But seven demons in them didn't be careful
- 00:11:13.192 --> 00:11:17.263
- Who you're listening to, because you might be listening to demons.
- 00:11:18.597 --> 00:11:20.966
- Some of you are having conversations and comments sections with demons.
- 00:11:22.401 --> 00:11:24.503
- Some of you don't even realize it yet.
- 00:11:25.304 --> 00:11:26.806
- You're texting demons and how many of them are you?
- 00:11:26.806 --> 00:11:29.608
- Are you texting?
- 00:11:29.975 --> 00:11:31.944
- Matter of fact, one of remember the sermon i taught about the four different types
- 00:11:31.944 --> 00:11:33.946
- Of tongues, but you guys remember that you can go back and watch it.
- 00:11:33.946 --> 00:11:37.683
- One of the tongues is, is that your prayer language
- 00:11:38.684 --> 00:11:41.987
- And the bible, the way it describes
- 00:11:42.722 --> 00:11:44.590
- It is that when we speak in tongues, we utter mysteries that we know not.
- 00:11:44.590 --> 00:11:47.593
- But could it be that god is giving you strategies
- 00:11:48.527 --> 00:11:51.330
- And plans and like, almost imagine, like it's in an encrypted language
- 00:11:51.330 --> 00:11:56.202
- That not even the devil can decipher or discern, but then you receive it
- 00:11:57.636 --> 00:12:01.173
- In encryption, but then you tell it to somebody else in english,
- 00:12:01.173 --> 00:12:05.277
- Because the demons, they're not, omnipotent.
- 00:12:06.178 --> 00:12:08.948
- And lucifer is not omnipotent and omnipresent like god,
- 00:12:10.082 --> 00:12:12.885
- But he depends on other demons working together
- 00:12:13.819 --> 00:12:16.222
- In concert to actually transmit information.
- 00:12:16.222 --> 00:12:19.792
- And so that's why when you look at the scriptures
- 00:12:20.793 --> 00:12:22.695
- And i just went and reread all this in preparation for this sermon, every
- 00:12:22.695 --> 00:12:25.664
- Single time that jesus is encountering a demon, with the exception of one,
- 00:12:25.664 --> 00:12:29.902
- The demons were asking him, why are you here?
- 00:12:30.870 --> 00:12:33.005
- Why did you come to torment us?
- 00:12:33.005 --> 00:12:35.141
- Why did you come to punish us before our time?
- 00:12:35.141 --> 00:12:37.676
- But then i thought to myself, why are these demons asking
- 00:12:37.676 --> 00:12:40.346
- Jesus questions?
- 00:12:40.346 --> 00:12:41.747
- I'll tell you, because they don't have omniscience.
- 00:12:41.747 --> 00:12:45.351
- They don't. they're not omnipresent.
- 00:12:46.118 --> 00:12:47.520
- They're trying to solicit jesus for information
- 00:12:47.520 --> 00:12:50.055
- So they can take that information back to rulers and principalities
- 00:12:50.055 --> 00:12:54.360
- And powers and begin to orchestrate and conspire against jesus.
- 00:12:54.360 --> 00:12:59.098
- Did so some of you don't understand.
- 00:12:59.865 --> 00:13:00.966
- The devil doesn't know everything.
- 00:13:00.966 --> 00:13:03.335
- He knows what you say out of your mouth.
- 00:13:03.335 --> 00:13:05.805
- He knows what you say to a friend.
- 00:13:06.572 --> 00:13:08.541
- Demons know, and they're feasting on these conversations
- 00:13:08.541 --> 00:13:11.877
- To get information to conspire against you and what i love about jesus.
- 00:13:13.245 --> 00:13:16.148
- And when you look at this in scripture, you'll see it.
- 00:13:16.148 --> 00:13:18.184
- I just i was just spending so much time in the word looking at this
- 00:13:18.184 --> 00:13:22.288
- In mark chapter one verse 25,
- 00:13:22.922 --> 00:13:25.090
- Jesus says to the demon after the did the demon asked him a question.
- 00:13:25.090 --> 00:13:29.528
- He said, be quiet and come out.
- 00:13:30.162 --> 00:13:33.532
- So jesus knew how to be silent
- 00:13:34.166 --> 00:13:37.837
- When he was with human rulers, he knew when not to talk.
- 00:13:38.938 --> 00:13:42.341
- You see, jesus actual exercise in exercising silence,
- 00:13:43.409 --> 00:13:46.645
- But then you also see jesus telling demons to shut up,
- 00:13:47.713 --> 00:13:50.816
- And i don't.
- 00:13:51.150 --> 00:13:52.985
- Some of you need to literally speak to these spirits and say, silence!
- 00:13:52.985 --> 00:13:56.255
- Leave now. silence! come out.
- 00:13:56.889 --> 00:13:59.124
- I'm not giving you information.
- 00:13:59.124 --> 00:14:00.893
- I'm not giving you the encrypted information from heaven.
- 00:14:00.893 --> 00:14:03.762
- I'm not telling you what god and some of you like.
- 00:14:03.762 --> 00:14:06.098
- I gotta tell my friend what the lord told me.
- 00:14:06.098 --> 00:14:08.567
- You better be careful, because you're not having a one on one.
- 00:14:08.567 --> 00:14:11.470
- You might be having a one on eight
- 00:14:11.470 --> 00:14:13.572
- And you're giving your pearls among swine.
- 00:14:14.473 --> 00:14:17.776
- You're giving prophetic dreams to people who are not prophetic.
- 00:14:18.978 --> 00:14:21.480
- You're giving prophetic insights to those who are babies in the faith.
- 00:14:22.882 --> 00:14:26.585
- They don't even know how to discern prophetic insights.
- 00:14:26.585 --> 00:14:29.188
- You're giving strategy from heaven
- 00:14:29.188 --> 00:14:31.023
- For those who don't even talk and have a relationship with heaven.
- 00:14:31.023 --> 00:14:34.460
- So i think there's something about the wisdom of silence in this next season.
- 00:14:35.995 --> 00:14:39.798
- For many of us.
- 00:14:39.798 --> 00:14:41.100
- I'm saying, praise god.
- 00:14:41.100 --> 00:14:43.802
- Isaiah chapter 30, verse 15,
- 00:14:43.802 --> 00:14:45.804
- In repentance and rest is your salvation.
- 00:14:45.804 --> 00:14:48.674
- In quietness and trust is your strength.
- 00:14:48.674 --> 00:14:55.047
- In repentance and rest is your salvation.
- 00:14:55.915 --> 00:14:59.285
- In quietness and trust is your strength.
- 00:15:00.119 --> 00:15:02.221
- What does this mean?
- 00:15:02.688 --> 00:15:04.223
- Your silence reveals your trust.
- 00:15:04.223 --> 00:15:07.493
- I'm not going to defend.
- 00:15:07.993 --> 00:15:09.028
- I'm not going to push back.
- 00:15:09.028 --> 00:15:10.863
- I'm not going to speak for comfort from a person i trust in god.
- 00:15:10.863 --> 00:15:15.034
- I trust in the dream he gave me.
- 00:15:15.668 --> 00:15:17.136
- Wasn't it joseph who spoke his dream to his brothers
- 00:15:17.136 --> 00:15:20.673
- And stirred up their jealousy that caused him to be thrown in a well?
- 00:15:20.673 --> 00:15:24.510
- See, telling your dream to the wrong person will literally call
- 00:15:25.711 --> 00:15:29.348
- Cause people to rise up against you and you'll end up fighting a battle
- 00:15:30.749 --> 00:15:33.585
- That you may or may not have ever been assigned.
- 00:15:34.553 --> 00:15:36.655
- Be careful.
- 00:15:36.655 --> 00:15:38.324
- Not everybody can know your dream.
- 00:15:38.324 --> 00:15:41.727
- Not everybody can know the strategy from heaven.
- 00:15:42.695 --> 00:15:45.664
- Be careful because your audience is not just human, it's also demonic.
- 00:15:47.066 --> 00:15:51.470
- Psalm chapter 62, verse one turn.
- 00:15:52.204 --> 00:15:55.040
- Or it says, truly my soul finds rest in god and my salvation comes from him.
- 00:15:55.040 --> 00:16:00.279
- Proverbs chapter 19, verse 11 a person's wisdom yields patience.
- 00:16:01.513 --> 00:16:05.784
- It's to it's to one's glory to overlook an offense.
- 00:16:06.819 --> 00:16:09.054
- Would you stand with me for a moment?
- 00:16:09.054 --> 00:16:10.689
- We're just going to pray before we transition out.
- 00:16:10.689 --> 00:16:19.398
- I feel something different
- 00:16:19.965 --> 00:16:22.201
- In this service than i felt last service.
- 00:16:22.201 --> 00:16:24.870
- You know what i feel?
- 00:16:24.870 --> 00:16:26.338
- I feel that striving is ceasing.
- 00:16:26.338 --> 00:16:29.608
- I feel that many of you are just giving it to god.
- 00:16:30.642 --> 00:16:33.312
- I can feel it that many of you are just saying, you're right.
- 00:16:34.513 --> 00:16:36.582
- I'm done, i'm done.
- 00:16:37.049 --> 00:16:38.183
- I, i don't have to protect myself.
- 00:16:38.183 --> 00:16:40.986
- I have a protector.
- 00:16:40.986 --> 00:16:42.554
- I don't have to explain myself.
- 00:16:42.554 --> 00:16:45.224
- My actions will speak for themselves.
- 00:16:45.224 --> 00:16:47.659
- Because fruit is what you do, not just what you say.
- 00:16:47.659 --> 00:16:51.296
- And the lord will fight my battles, y'all.
- 00:16:52.164 --> 00:16:53.999
- I mean, in the last two weeks, i've received more, i've received more,
- 00:16:53.999 --> 00:16:58.470
- Apologies.
- 00:16:58.771 --> 00:17:00.305
- And the last two weeks and i've received in my entire life.
- 00:17:00.305 --> 00:17:03.442
- Hey, mike, cigna rally here, and we're back in the studio.
- 00:17:04.610 --> 00:17:07.846
- I have a very important message for you before we go back into the sermon.
- 00:17:09.314 --> 00:17:12.284
- October 25th.
- 00:17:12.651 --> 00:17:14.153
- Thousands are gathering at now arena in chicago.
- 00:17:14.153 --> 00:17:18.190
- I want to encourage you, because last year we saw medically verifiable miracles.
- 00:17:19.691 --> 00:17:23.395
- Entire family saved, many people delivered from addictions.
- 00:17:24.530 --> 00:17:27.933
- And it was a powerful time together.
- 00:17:28.700 --> 00:17:29.968
- And we're doing it again this year.
- 00:17:29.968 --> 00:17:31.970
- But seats are going fast.
- 00:17:31.970 --> 00:17:34.073
- I want to see you there in chicago.
- 00:17:34.073 --> 00:17:35.774
- It's worth the flight.
- 00:17:35.774 --> 00:17:37.042
- It's worth the drive in.
- 00:17:37.042 --> 00:17:38.710
- It's the breakers conference at now arena october 25th
- 00:17:38.710 --> 00:17:43.515
- Actually go to breakers conference.com or scan the qr code. now.
- 00:17:44.783 --> 00:17:49.121
- Get your tickets
- 00:17:49.488 --> 00:17:51.290
- While there's still a few remaining, and i'll see you october 25th.
- 00:17:51.290 --> 00:17:54.359
- So this is our time to shine.
- 00:17:54.993 --> 00:17:56.762
- And this is our time to hold up the light of christ.
- 00:17:56.762 --> 00:18:00.466
- I mean, it's getting to the point of total insanity.
- 00:18:01.533 --> 00:18:03.335
- And on the surface you would say, lord, what a time to be alive.
- 00:18:03.335 --> 00:18:06.638
- And so discouraging. and the lord says, no.
- 00:18:06.638 --> 00:18:09.274
- With great adversity comes great opportunity for such a time.
- 00:18:09.274 --> 00:18:14.613
- How do you think you're going to be an asterisk?
- 00:18:15.614 --> 00:18:17.182
- Unless your people are subjugated to death?
- 00:18:17.182 --> 00:18:20.552
- How do you think you're going to be a david?
- 00:18:21.453 --> 00:18:22.988
- Unless there's a goliath that's taunting you with the adversity?
- 00:18:22.988 --> 00:18:26.158
- Is your opportunity.
- 00:18:26.158 --> 00:18:28.026
- This is the thing that's going to cause people to rise out of obscurity.
- 00:18:28.026 --> 00:18:31.830
- This is your destiny knocking at your door.
- 00:18:32.731 --> 00:18:34.566
- How else do you think you were going to be drawn out?
- 00:18:34.566 --> 00:18:37.136
- Unless there was something hard to do.
- 00:18:37.136 --> 00:18:39.138
- But if you have faith, just as a mustard seed, you'll speak to the mountain,
- 00:18:39.138 --> 00:18:43.408
- Move and it will move.
- 00:18:43.408 --> 00:18:45.410
- So that's what we're going to do as a church.
- 00:18:46.311 --> 00:18:48.847
- Look at what happened in ihop.
- 00:18:48.847 --> 00:18:52.184
- Look at what happened with mike bickle.
- 00:18:53.051 --> 00:18:56.121
- Why am i saying this?
- 00:18:56.622 --> 00:18:59.925
- Because i and maybe this is
- 00:19:00.526 --> 00:19:02.661
- I don't know if i'll do this next service, but i feel it now.
- 00:19:02.661 --> 00:19:05.197
- And if if you're like, lord, this is such a long service
- 00:19:05.197 --> 00:19:08.066
- And just go to a gummy bear christian frou frou church
- 00:19:08.066 --> 00:19:12.437
- That sings kumbaya, tickles your ears with some fake
- 00:19:13.505 --> 00:19:16.141
- Motivational sermon that and then go, you just live out your life.
- 00:19:16.141 --> 00:19:19.478
- I'll see you in heaven.
- 00:19:19.478 --> 00:19:20.412
- It's not a salvation issue,
- 00:19:20.412 --> 00:19:22.147
- But i know that we have a destiny and a calling on this house.
- 00:19:22.147 --> 00:19:25.751
- We have a mandate on this house.
- 00:19:25.751 --> 00:19:27.886
- We have an assignment on this house.
- 00:19:27.886 --> 00:19:30.022
- I got. there's nothing wrong with the church down the street.
- 00:19:30.022 --> 00:19:32.357
- God bless them.
- 00:19:32.357 --> 00:19:33.792
- But i'm trying to plunder hell and populate heaven.
- 00:19:33.792 --> 00:19:36.795
- And i'm going to smell like smoke.
- 00:19:37.563 --> 00:19:38.697
- Clutching people out of the inferno.
- 00:19:38.697 --> 00:19:40.799
- And this is some me calling you all to arms.
- 00:19:40.799 --> 00:19:43.735
- Who wants to do it?
- 00:19:43.735 --> 00:19:45.304
- If you want religion as usual, go to the church down the street
- 00:19:45.304 --> 00:19:49.208
- And patty take each other all the way to mediocre city.
- 00:19:50.342 --> 00:19:51.944
- But the kingdom of heaven suffers violence and the violent.
- 00:19:51.944 --> 00:19:55.414
- Take it by force.
- 00:19:55.414 --> 00:19:56.882
- I'm not asking for love island.
- 00:19:56.882 --> 00:19:59.151
- I'm taking it from rulers of darkness.
- 00:19:59.151 --> 00:20:01.653
- Who wants to take it with me?
- 00:20:01.653 --> 00:20:03.689
- I'm not asking for new york city.
- 00:20:03.689 --> 00:20:05.824
- I'm taking it by force.
- 00:20:05.824 --> 00:20:09.528
- Taking it by force.
- 00:20:09.995 --> 00:20:14.733
- Mark my words,
- 00:20:15.100 --> 00:20:17.302
- Some of y'all, when you die
- 00:20:17.302 --> 00:20:19.171
- And you look backwards and you see what was at stake,
- 00:20:19.171 --> 00:20:23.709
- You'd be like, that dude wasn't as crazy as i thought he was.
- 00:20:24.910 --> 00:20:27.179
- That dude was not as crazy as i thought he was.
- 00:20:28.146 --> 00:20:30.282
- He was seeing something.
- 00:20:30.282 --> 00:20:31.950
- Can i just tell you?
- 00:20:31.950 --> 00:20:33.719
- Our children are being seduced by the doctrines of demons for gender
- 00:20:33.719 --> 00:20:37.356
- Dysphoria, for sexual perversion and confusion in their identity.
- 00:20:37.356 --> 00:20:42.194
- I mean, are we just going to hand our kids over?
- 00:20:43.161 --> 00:20:44.630
- Are we going to create schools
- 00:20:44.630 --> 00:20:46.198
- That are alternatives to the schools they have to go to?
- 00:20:46.198 --> 00:20:49.501
- Because i'll tell you right now, and i'm speaking vision
- 00:20:50.636 --> 00:20:52.671
- Because we're not a church, we're a movement called the body of christ.
- 00:20:52.671 --> 00:20:56.408
- And we will have schools in every region where we have churches,
- 00:20:57.676 --> 00:21:00.646
- And our kids will have an alternative to this deception that's happening.
- 00:21:02.047 --> 00:21:04.950
- And we are not going to lay down and let the devil have our chance
- 00:21:06.285 --> 00:21:09.087
- In this generation.
- 00:21:09.554 --> 00:21:11.423
- And we're not going to waste our time fighting people when it's the same devil
- 00:21:11.423 --> 00:21:15.360
- With the same old tricks.
- 00:21:15.927 --> 00:21:17.696
- We're already incubating
- 00:21:18.196 --> 00:21:20.032
- Schools right now, and i'm being a little bit more bold
- 00:21:20.032 --> 00:21:23.435
- About talking about because i feel when lou angel got up on my stage
- 00:21:24.803 --> 00:21:28.040
- From our pulpit and said, there's the lion, the bear and the
- 00:21:28.040 --> 00:21:32.110
- And the giant, and just articulated the three things he's called the fight.
- 00:21:33.612 --> 00:21:35.247
- It just freed me because i've been know in mind
- 00:21:35.247 --> 00:21:38.650
- And i feel like as a church,
- 00:21:39.251 --> 00:21:41.820
- We are it's it's it's religion, the mountain of religion.
- 00:21:41.820 --> 00:21:45.157
- We're going to keep doing what we're going to plant churches.
- 00:21:45.157 --> 00:21:47.659
- I don't care who doesn't like it.
- 00:21:47.659 --> 00:21:49.528
- I don't care how annoying we are to the neighbors.
- 00:21:49.528 --> 00:21:52.230
- I don't care what they think.
- 00:21:52.230 --> 00:21:53.799
- The kingdom of heaven is descending on earth,
- 00:21:53.799 --> 00:21:56.668
- And it will look like a visible representation called a church.
- 00:21:56.668 --> 00:22:01.039
- And you can try to kick us out of the movie theater in miami.
- 00:22:02.240 --> 00:22:04.309
- We'll find another building because it's never been about the venue.
- 00:22:05.711 --> 00:22:07.379
- It's about the relationships.
- 00:22:08.013 --> 00:22:09.181
- It's about the unity through christ.
- 00:22:09.181 --> 00:22:11.249
- You cannot like us in indiana.
- 00:22:11.249 --> 00:22:13.618
- And guess what?
- 00:22:13.618 --> 00:22:14.986
- The mayor's trying to help us get another building.
- 00:22:14.986 --> 00:22:16.888
- So how are you like me now, devil, you can't stop the body of christ
- 00:22:16.888 --> 00:22:21.259
- Because it's always been about the relationship.
- 00:22:22.227 --> 00:22:24.129
- Because spirit is thicker than blood and the holy spirit is uniting us.
- 00:22:24.129 --> 00:22:29.101
- One mind and i got news for you.
- 00:22:29.735 --> 00:22:32.070
- You're mad about us doing one movie, but i see multiple movies coming out.
- 00:22:32.070 --> 00:22:36.775
- We're working on a second movie,
- 00:22:37.409 --> 00:22:39.111
- And it's not about the red carpet because we're celebrities.
- 00:22:39.111 --> 00:22:42.647
- That carpet's drenched by the blood of the lamb.
- 00:22:43.615 --> 00:22:44.950
- That said stunt.
- 00:22:44.950 --> 00:22:46.218
- You're walking a cheaper step into your destiny,
- 00:22:46.218 --> 00:22:48.954
- And you're going to take a mound of entertainment,
- 00:22:48.954 --> 00:22:51.590
- And you're going to tell the stories that this generation needs to hear.
- 00:22:51.590 --> 00:22:57.796
- You got
- 00:22:58.029 --> 00:22:59.398
- These christians that'll bash us for having a movie
- 00:22:59.398 --> 00:23:01.933
- And then go sit and entertain this filth
- 00:23:02.801 --> 00:23:04.669
- From disney and other movies.
- 00:23:04.669 --> 00:23:07.906
- How stupid, how stupid.
- 00:23:08.407 --> 00:23:11.543
- You'll sit and watch a horror film and they'll be mad about a christian film.
- 00:23:13.044 --> 00:23:17.048
- How stupid,
- 00:23:17.048 --> 00:23:19.151
- If that don't realize, make you realize that you're not always talking to people.
- 00:23:19.151 --> 00:23:22.554
- But i got good news for you.
- 00:23:23.155 --> 00:23:24.523
- More movies are coming.
- 00:23:24.523 --> 00:23:27.926
- And i want you to pray about something.
- 00:23:28.794 --> 00:23:30.662
- The people are helping us do digital distribution for our film.
- 00:23:30.662 --> 00:23:34.132
- They're catholic,
- 00:23:34.566 --> 00:23:36.568
- And we last meeting we had, you know, this is for domino revival distribution.
- 00:23:36.568 --> 00:23:39.938
- The guy said he was in good friday service, had an open vision as a catholic
- 00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:44.142
- And said, mike signoret is to do a movie about abortion.
- 00:23:45.277 --> 00:23:48.013
- But then louis angle comes on our stage and says we have to dethrone
- 00:23:49.347 --> 00:23:53.385
- Ishtar and molek, not even realizing that something's converging.
- 00:23:53.385 --> 00:23:58.557
- See you y'all. you.
- 00:23:59.024 --> 00:24:01.026
- I don't think you understand.
- 00:24:01.026 --> 00:24:02.461
- Like, we will summit the mountain of entertainment
- 00:24:02.461 --> 00:24:05.597
- And our kids will have alternatives and we will not have to just
- 00:24:06.932 --> 00:24:10.068
- Eat the filth
- 00:24:10.435 --> 00:24:12.070
- Of this demonic stuff that's created.
- 00:24:12.070 --> 00:24:15.373
- But how many of you believe that?
- 00:24:16.107 --> 00:24:18.877
- Now? why did i just go so long?
- 00:24:19.511 --> 00:24:22.581
- I'll tell you why.
- 00:24:23.014 --> 00:24:24.649
- Because we can.
- 00:24:24.649 --> 00:24:26.318
- We could be the generation.
- 00:24:26.318 --> 00:24:28.253
- If the lord tarries,
- 00:24:28.253 --> 00:24:30.689
- That buys these church buildings.
- 00:24:30.689 --> 00:24:32.424
- And it's a stone for remembrance and incubates and makes schools
- 00:24:32.424 --> 00:24:36.895
- Where kids are able to learn.
- 00:24:36.895 --> 00:24:40.165
- We can make movies
- 00:24:40.599 --> 00:24:41.867
- That changed a generation, that canceled
- 00:24:41.867 --> 00:24:44.769
- Tens of thousands of suicides all over the us.
- 00:24:45.737 --> 00:24:48.139
- Or we can sit down and badmouth and talk about other christians.
- 00:24:49.374 --> 00:24:52.978
- See, sometimes when you go 40,000ft,
- 00:24:53.745 --> 00:24:56.982
- It makes everything down below looks so much more obvious, doesn't it?
- 00:24:58.316 --> 00:25:00.652
- So as a church, here's what i want to ask you,
- 00:25:01.553 --> 00:25:04.589
- Because i feel like we have an unprecedented opportunity.
- 00:25:05.757 --> 00:25:08.126
- The pandemic forced us to respond.
- 00:25:08.126 --> 00:25:11.463
- It was like nobody knew what was coming.
- 00:25:12.330 --> 00:25:14.199
- They said it was going to be two weeks and that ended up being two years.
- 00:25:14.199 --> 00:25:16.468
- Y'all remember that.
- 00:25:16.468 --> 00:25:18.270
- But i feel like right now, prophetically, we have an opportunity
- 00:25:18.270 --> 00:25:21.640
- To to get up ahead of whatever's coming that people look to us
- 00:25:22.841 --> 00:25:26.077
- And say, if you want to see unity, you got to look at them.
- 00:25:26.077 --> 00:25:29.014
- If you want to see how to feed people, you got to look at them.
- 00:25:29.014 --> 00:25:31.783
- If you want to see how to clothe and take care of people, you got to look at them.
- 00:25:31.783 --> 00:25:35.153
- If you want to see the love of christ
- 00:25:35.954 --> 00:25:37.455
- Through a human being, you gotta look at those vh1 people.
- 00:25:37.455 --> 00:25:39.624
- Can we make a commitment to be those people across every location right now?
- 00:25:39.624 --> 00:25:44.329
- So let's lift our hands and pray together.
- 00:25:45.196 --> 00:25:46.531
- It's time to be unaffordable.
- 00:25:46.531 --> 00:25:48.166
- It's time to grow up.
- 00:25:48.166 --> 00:25:49.935
- It's time to mature and say, god, i want to be who you called me to be.
- 00:25:49.935 --> 00:25:53.705
- With hands lifted right now.
- 00:25:54.306 --> 00:25:55.473
- Let's pray this across every location.
- 00:25:55.473 --> 00:25:57.108
- Say, heavenly father, i commit to being unaffordable,
- 00:25:57.108 --> 00:26:02.080
- To forgive those who have hurt me, to release them.
- 00:26:03.148 --> 00:26:07.085
- I will use my words to prophesy,
- 00:26:07.719 --> 00:26:11.089
- To declare a hope and a future.
- 00:26:11.723 --> 00:26:14.693
- I say yes to your will and your way.
- 00:26:15.460 --> 00:26:18.997
- Use us, god, to shine
- 00:26:19.497 --> 00:26:21.933
- Your light in the earth.
- 00:26:21.933 --> 00:26:24.936
- Jesus be magnified.
- 00:26:24.936 --> 00:26:28.239
- Jesus be glorified, for yours is the kingdom.
- 00:26:29.174 --> 00:26:32.944
- Yours is the power.
- 00:26:33.411 --> 00:26:35.180
- Forever.
- 00:26:35.180 --> 00:26:36.615
- Somebody shout amen!
- 00:26:36.615 --> 00:26:38.717
- I really want to thank you for supporting this ministry.
- 00:26:38.717 --> 00:26:42.320
- Pray about what god would have you do.
- 00:26:43.154 --> 00:26:44.723
- We don't tell people what to give.
- 00:26:44.723 --> 00:26:46.658
- What we do love to talk about is the amazing, life saving projects
- 00:26:46.658 --> 00:26:51.096
- That we do around the united states and around the world,
- 00:26:51.096 --> 00:26:54.399
- Whether it's distributing the gospel in non-christian nations,
- 00:26:55.600 --> 00:26:58.236
- Even underground church networks, or providing disaster relief to areas
- 00:26:58.236 --> 00:27:02.974
- Most affected around the united states, many lives are being changed
- 00:27:02.974 --> 00:27:07.178
- Because of your generosity.
- 00:27:07.178 --> 00:27:07.178
