| Mike Signorelli - God is Removing Delays (Part 1) | April 23, 2026

- the narrow way broadcast
00:00:00.227 --> 00:00:01.829
Is brought to you in part by partners
00:00:01.829 --> 00:00:03.397
Of mike signorelli ministries and viewers like you.
00:00:03.397 --> 00:00:07.234
- no more hesitation, no more delay.
00:00:08.035 --> 00:00:10.171
We're gonna be obedient. we're gonna do it now.
00:00:10.171 --> 00:00:12.306
And what that might mean is
00:00:12.306 --> 00:00:14.175
That there's some relationships the lord told you to cut off
00:00:14.175 --> 00:00:17.478
And you're not gonna delay it.
00:00:17.478 --> 00:00:19.046
You're actually gonna cut it off.
00:00:19.046 --> 00:00:21.182
That that means that there's some people
00:00:21.182 --> 00:00:23.150
That you've been hanging with that were good for a season,
00:00:23.150 --> 00:00:27.054
But not necessarily for where god's taking you.
00:00:27.054 --> 00:00:30.291
There are people that god will send into your life
00:00:30.291 --> 00:00:32.960
For a reason
00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:34.361
And for a season there could be a business decision,
00:00:34.361 --> 00:00:38.632
There could be a career change.
00:00:38.632 --> 00:00:40.968
If god told, told you to change your address geographically,
00:00:40.968 --> 00:00:45.072
Why are you still receiving mail at the same apartment,
00:00:45.072 --> 00:00:48.008
The same house, but god has been broadcasting messages?
00:00:48.008 --> 00:00:51.312
Is there anybody that's like, pastor mike, i'm ready to do
00:00:51.312 --> 00:00:54.748
What he told me to do.
00:00:54.748 --> 00:00:56.584
Hey, this is mike signorelli with the narrow way,
00:00:56.584 --> 00:00:59.353
And i've got some crazy testimonies to tell you.
00:00:59.353 --> 00:01:01.522
So first of all, my team just let me know
00:01:01.522 --> 00:01:03.791
That we had people reaching out saying that they decided not
00:01:03.791 --> 00:01:06.994
To end their life as a result of the message.
00:01:06.994 --> 00:01:10.097
They heard the sermon and they made a decision also.
00:01:10.097 --> 00:01:14.168
This is crazy, but i know you believe it.
00:01:14.168 --> 00:01:16.470
God is still a supernatural god who answers prayers.
00:01:16.470 --> 00:01:20.508
And we have prayer team members that have been praying
00:01:20.508 --> 00:01:22.810
For people on the phone lines,
00:01:22.810 --> 00:01:24.378
And we've gotten reports of medically verifiable miracles.
00:01:24.378 --> 00:01:27.681
We've been encouraging people go back to the doctor,
00:01:27.681 --> 00:01:29.984
Get the results like we believe, yes,
00:01:29.984 --> 00:01:32.253
We believe in medicine,
00:01:32.253 --> 00:01:33.787
But also we believe that it will be confirmed what god did.
00:01:33.787 --> 00:01:37.591
And so those reports are coming in,
00:01:37.591 --> 00:01:39.593
But i wanted to sincerely thank each and every one of you.
00:01:39.593 --> 00:01:42.096
It's actually because of your support that we're able
00:01:42.096 --> 00:01:44.999
To get these messages out.
00:01:44.999 --> 00:01:46.767
So because you're a partner, we pray for you.
00:01:46.767 --> 00:01:49.937
I mean, as a matter of fact, we wanna pray for you today,
00:01:49.937 --> 00:01:53.541
But specifically continue your support
00:01:53.541 --> 00:01:56.677
Because i believe that we've only just begun.
00:01:56.677 --> 00:01:59.380
How many of you believe
00:01:59.380 --> 00:02:00.614
That we're gonna see god do even greater things
00:02:00.614 --> 00:02:02.883
As we continue with the narrow way?
00:02:02.883 --> 00:02:05.452
So let's jump into this week's message.
00:02:05.452 --> 00:02:08.055
This path is already narrow
00:02:08.656 --> 00:02:10.691
And we will forge forward, making no excuse
00:02:10.691 --> 00:02:13.627
For why we can live uncompromised in this generation.
00:02:13.627 --> 00:02:17.164
- lock in, give me a hundred people who will walk
00:02:17.164 --> 00:02:21.001
That narrow road
00:02:21.001 --> 00:02:22.403
And say, i may have some things in my family,
00:02:22.403 --> 00:02:25.806
But i swear it runs out.
00:02:25.806 --> 00:02:30.144
- have you ever known in your gut that you were supposed
00:02:31.278 --> 00:02:33.981
To do something but you hesitated?
00:02:33.981 --> 00:02:36.817
Maybe the lord's been speaking to you,
00:02:36.817 --> 00:02:38.652
Maybe the lord's been revealing to you
00:02:38.652 --> 00:02:40.187
And you're like, i know in my gut that i'm supposed
00:02:40.187 --> 00:02:43.023
To be doing something, but you just don't take action.
00:02:43.023 --> 00:02:46.393
That that's what this message is all about.
00:02:46.393 --> 00:02:48.162
And i wanna speak prophetically
00:02:48.162 --> 00:02:49.697
Because this is a prophetic sermon
00:02:49.697 --> 00:02:52.566
And it's a prophetic sermon because god is removing delay
00:02:52.566 --> 00:02:57.071
And the things that he's told you to do,
00:02:57.071 --> 00:02:59.273
We're gonna become immediately obedient to them
00:02:59.273 --> 00:03:02.142
And we're gonna do the things that he said to do.
00:03:02.142 --> 00:03:04.578
And we're gonna step in now.
00:03:04.578 --> 00:03:06.113
No more hesitation, no more delay. we're gonna be obedient.
00:03:06.113 --> 00:03:09.350
We're gonna do it now.
00:03:09.350 --> 00:03:10.484
And what that might mean is
00:03:10.484 --> 00:03:12.353
That there's some relationships the lord told you to cut off
00:03:12.353 --> 00:03:15.623
And you're not gonna delay it.
00:03:15.623 --> 00:03:17.224
You're actually gonna cut it off.
00:03:17.224 --> 00:03:19.326
That that means that there's some people
00:03:19.326 --> 00:03:21.362
That you've been hanging with that were good for a season,
00:03:21.362 --> 00:03:25.232
But not necessarily for where god's taking you.
00:03:25.232 --> 00:03:28.569
You know what i'm saying? like when you look at a rocket
00:03:28.569 --> 00:03:30.504
Ship going out into outer space, those,
00:03:30.504 --> 00:03:33.073
Those rocket boosters get you into a certain atmosphere
00:03:33.073 --> 00:03:36.810
And they serve that purpose and then they break off
00:03:36.810 --> 00:03:39.847
Because they weren't supposed to go the whole journey.
00:03:39.847 --> 00:03:42.316
And there are people that god will send into your life
00:03:42.316 --> 00:03:45.286
For a reason and for a season,
00:03:45.286 --> 00:03:48.389
But then you try to hold on what he's telling you to let go.
00:03:48.389 --> 00:03:52.293
And you are the one who suffers as a result of it.
00:03:52.293 --> 00:03:55.229
So there could be a relationship thing
00:03:55.229 --> 00:03:58.332
That god's dealing with.
00:03:58.332 --> 00:04:00.000
There could be a business decision,
00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:02.770
There could be a career change.
00:04:02.770 --> 00:04:05.039
I don't know what it is.
00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:06.440
And listen, i'm not trying to get like, you know,
00:04:06.440 --> 00:04:08.575
All up in your business,
00:04:08.575 --> 00:04:10.044
But if god told, told you
00:04:10.044 --> 00:04:11.445
To change your address geographically,
00:04:11.445 --> 00:04:14.181
Why are you still receiving mail at the same
00:04:14.181 --> 00:04:16.583
Apartment, the same house?
00:04:16.583 --> 00:04:17.985
Like i don't know what i'm talking to right now,
00:04:17.985 --> 00:04:20.587
But god has been broadcasting messages.
00:04:20.587 --> 00:04:23.257
Is there anybody that's like, pastor mike, i'm ready to do
00:04:23.257 --> 00:04:26.727
What he told me to do.
00:04:26.727 --> 00:04:28.962
All right, so think about this.
00:04:28.962 --> 00:04:30.664
This is a, this is a prophetic message.
00:04:30.664 --> 00:04:32.833
So this could have been a conversation that you're avoiding
00:04:32.833 --> 00:04:35.836
Because sometimes people will choose the pain
00:04:35.836 --> 00:04:39.206
Of the same instead of the pain of change.
00:04:39.206 --> 00:04:43.277
But the, let me help you,
00:04:43.844 --> 00:04:45.546
You're gonna experience pain no matter what.
00:04:45.546 --> 00:04:48.449
There are people who will stay at a compromised church
00:04:49.516 --> 00:04:53.520
Where the holy spirit is not moving,
00:04:53.520 --> 00:04:56.023
Where the preacher is not in humility, asking god
00:04:56.023 --> 00:04:59.727
For the sermon, and they'll stay in that church
00:04:59.727 --> 00:05:02.629
For years even though the holy spirit told them to leave
00:05:02.629 --> 00:05:06.033
Because they would rather have the pain of the same instead
00:05:06.033 --> 00:05:09.403
Of the pain of change.
00:05:09.403 --> 00:05:10.904
Oh, come on there.
00:05:10.904 --> 00:05:11.939
For those of you just tuning in,
00:05:11.939 --> 00:05:13.540
If you just jumped into this, i already went from bethlehem
00:05:13.540 --> 00:05:16.477
To nazareth to capernaum, to the sea of galilee,
00:05:16.477 --> 00:05:19.413
To caesarea philippi, which that was a brutal message last week.
00:05:19.413 --> 00:05:23.083
And then we're on this like tour,
00:05:23.083 --> 00:05:24.985
And now we're stepping into this, this very critical moment
00:05:24.985 --> 00:05:29.823
Where jesus is wrapping up a lot of his important ministry
00:05:29.823 --> 00:05:33.894
And he sets his eyes to jerusalem.
00:05:33.894 --> 00:05:36.363
And, and actually this is coexisting
00:05:36.363 --> 00:05:38.432
With the resurrection sunday and,
00:05:38.432 --> 00:05:40.701
And all the, the events that are gonna unfold, it's,
00:05:40.701 --> 00:05:43.036
It's a perfect synchronicity.
00:05:43.036 --> 00:05:44.738
And so look at the bible with me, luke chapter nine,
00:05:44.738 --> 00:05:48.509
Luke chapter nine, verse 51.
00:05:48.509 --> 00:05:50.411
I'm gonna read this text to you,
00:05:50.411 --> 00:05:52.346
Luke chapter nine, verse 51.
00:05:52.346 --> 00:05:53.881
It says, when the days grew near for him to be taken up,
00:05:53.881 --> 00:05:58.652
When the days grew near for him to be taken up,
00:05:59.586 --> 00:06:02.356
He set his face to go to jerusalem.
00:06:02.356 --> 00:06:07.027
This is very important. i want you to underline that.
00:06:07.027 --> 00:06:09.863
If you got a physical bible without any notifications,
00:06:09.863 --> 00:06:12.499
That doesn't need to be plugged into your wall,
00:06:12.499 --> 00:06:15.402
Circle it, underline it.
00:06:15.402 --> 00:06:17.604
I want you to write in the margins right now
00:06:17.604 --> 00:06:20.674
Because that single verse is the hinge
00:06:20.674 --> 00:06:23.010
Of the entire gospel of luke.
00:06:23.010 --> 00:06:25.512
It's the entire hinge, everything
00:06:25.512 --> 00:06:27.781
Before it, everything we've talked about, the miracles,
00:06:27.781 --> 00:06:31.685
The healings, the feeding of the thousands, the calming,
00:06:31.685 --> 00:06:35.122
The storms, everything i've taught you in the scriptures,
00:06:35.122 --> 00:06:38.158
Everything's hinging.
00:06:38.158 --> 00:06:39.693
Like if you've been with me all these weeks of this series,
00:06:39.693 --> 00:06:42.162
It's all for this moment right now.
00:06:42.162 --> 00:06:44.598
And it's so important because everything
00:06:44.598 --> 00:06:46.800
After it becomes the journey to the cross.
00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:50.704
Most people follow jesus without really knowing
00:06:50.704 --> 00:06:53.340
Where he went or why every place he walked was chosen.
00:06:53.340 --> 00:06:57.845
Every confrontation was intentional,
00:06:57.845 --> 00:07:00.347
Every step was advancing the kingdom of god.
00:07:00.347 --> 00:07:03.283
And he's inviting you to walk the same way,
00:07:03.283 --> 00:07:06.520
Not in confusion, not walking in fear,
00:07:06.520 --> 00:07:09.623
But walking in true authority journey with jesus walks you
00:07:09.623 --> 00:07:14.394
Through every step of jesus' ministry, not just as history,
00:07:14.394 --> 00:07:18.732
But as a map for your life right now.
00:07:18.732 --> 00:07:21.034
So get your copy at the link on your screen
00:07:21.034 --> 00:07:23.403
Because followers of jesus don't wander.
00:07:23.403 --> 00:07:26.607
They actually advance.
00:07:26.607 --> 00:07:28.242
This is your time to take your next step in discipleship.
00:07:28.242 --> 00:07:31.712
Get the book now from this
00:07:31.712 --> 00:07:37.017
Moment, for jesus's walking towards his own death.
00:07:38.018 --> 00:07:42.456
I got a question for you christians.
00:07:43.223 --> 00:07:46.693
This isn't for the unsaved, these are for those of you
00:07:46.693 --> 00:07:49.763
Who are christians.
00:07:49.763 --> 00:07:51.198
Have you yet made the decision to face jerusalem
00:07:52.199 --> 00:07:55.569
And to accept your own death?
00:07:55.569 --> 00:07:58.305
Death to lust and perversion, death to greed?
00:07:59.273 --> 00:08:03.510
Some of you are not wealthy, but you're still greedy.
00:08:03.510 --> 00:08:06.580
Everybody thinks that only people
00:08:07.247 --> 00:08:08.882
Who are greedy are wealthy.
00:08:08.882 --> 00:08:10.017
It's like, no, no, no. the people
00:08:10.017 --> 00:08:11.552
Who hold onto their money more than the promises of god.
00:08:11.552 --> 00:08:14.254
The p oh, come on this, this is, see,
00:08:14.254 --> 00:08:17.157
It comes in many different forms.
00:08:17.157 --> 00:08:18.725
We have to die many different deaths as a christian.
00:08:18.725 --> 00:08:21.862
And jesus has to go through the process
00:08:21.862 --> 00:08:24.031
Of accepting his death.
00:08:24.031 --> 00:08:25.566
And i'll tell you, there's a lot of christians
00:08:25.566 --> 00:08:27.501
That are seeking a tick, a word that tickles their ears
00:08:27.501 --> 00:08:30.571
And they're seeking a church
00:08:30.571 --> 00:08:32.205
That's always gonna encourage them.
00:08:32.205 --> 00:08:33.640
Well, let me encourage you.
00:08:33.640 --> 00:08:34.975
We're going to die today
00:08:34.975 --> 00:08:37.978
That this is a narrow road church.
00:08:38.745 --> 00:08:41.014
You know, if you want that church that's gonna gas you up
00:08:41.014 --> 00:08:43.817
And hype you up, if you want a motivational speech,
00:08:43.817 --> 00:08:46.520
You can find that church.
00:08:46.520 --> 00:08:47.788
But i'm gonna give you a motivation.
00:08:47.788 --> 00:08:49.323
Get up on your cross and die to self crucify the flesh.
00:08:49.323 --> 00:08:53.560
Tell the flesh, shut up.
00:08:53.560 --> 00:08:55.028
Stop blaming everything on a demon
00:08:55.028 --> 00:08:57.331
And start saying, no, god, deal with me.
00:08:57.331 --> 00:09:00.767
This is narrow road christianity.
00:09:01.501 --> 00:09:03.837
And the example that we have is jesus went first.
00:09:03.837 --> 00:09:07.641
See the point of the crucifixion isn't jesus died for you.
00:09:08.742 --> 00:09:12.045
The point of the crucifixion is jesus died first.
00:09:12.045 --> 00:09:15.082
Now you act like him
00:09:15.082 --> 00:09:16.617
And choose death to, you wanna stay married.
00:09:16.617 --> 00:09:20.988
I've been married 20 years, that fine looking piece
00:09:20.988 --> 00:09:25.759
Of meat on that front aisle.
00:09:25.759 --> 00:09:28.295
But i've been married for 20 years.
00:09:29.096 --> 00:09:30.697
You want me to tell you how to stay married?
00:09:30.697 --> 00:09:32.833
I'm gonna tell you how to stay married, choose to die
00:09:33.934 --> 00:09:37.971
To the right, to your own opinions.
00:09:37.971 --> 00:09:40.841
Men, stop blaming your wife and start apologizing
00:09:40.841 --> 00:09:45.312
Because your your wife is a reflection of the reality
00:09:45.312 --> 00:09:48.782
Of the words that you sowed.
00:09:48.782 --> 00:09:51.051
And so everything you don't like about your wife is the
00:09:51.051 --> 00:09:53.353
Fruit of your words.
00:09:53.353 --> 00:09:55.055
Change your seed and you'll change the fruit.
00:09:55.055 --> 00:09:57.891
Come on, you will have what you say. come on.
00:09:58.825 --> 00:10:02.796
And you wanna beautify your wife's.
00:10:03.597 --> 00:10:05.032
It's not about the skincare, it's about the words
00:10:05.032 --> 00:10:07.668
And it's about what you're speaking
00:10:07.668 --> 00:10:09.236
And it's about, you know, they can go get their hair done,
00:10:09.236 --> 00:10:11.304
But i'll tell you what beautifies your wife is when you wash
00:10:11.304 --> 00:10:14.041
Her with the word.
00:10:14.041 --> 00:10:15.442
But you know what, that requires dying to self.
00:10:16.376 --> 00:10:19.212
It requires saying, god, you know, oh, i'm tired.
00:10:19.212 --> 00:10:22.282
It's like, no man, i'm not, i'm i'm going to persevere.
00:10:22.282 --> 00:10:25.552
And what you see with jesus is jesus didn't
00:10:25.552 --> 00:10:27.988
Want to go to the cross.
00:10:27.988 --> 00:10:29.423
And you know, you're saying, why would you bring up
00:10:29.423 --> 00:10:30.757
Julie as your wife?
00:10:30.757 --> 00:10:31.858
Because we are the bride of christ.
00:10:31.858 --> 00:10:34.995
And so jesus being the groom showed us how
00:10:34.995 --> 00:10:38.498
To treat our wives
00:10:38.498 --> 00:10:39.933
Because he didn't want to go to the cross.
00:10:39.933 --> 00:10:42.135
He was tired, but he persevered.
00:10:42.135 --> 00:10:44.938
Jesus had every right to say the meanest thing to us,
00:10:44.938 --> 00:10:48.041
But he said the most compassionate thing.
00:10:48.041 --> 00:10:50.077
And so husbands, we have a great example through christ
00:10:50.077 --> 00:10:53.080
That we need to actually lay our life down for the bride.
00:10:53.080 --> 00:10:56.316
And so the, the story of, of the christian faith is
00:10:56.316 --> 00:10:59.519
How good do you get at choosing your own death?
00:10:59.519 --> 00:11:05.559
I don't wanna be in new york,
00:11:06.193 --> 00:11:08.095
I wanna be in montana in my bunker.
00:11:08.095 --> 00:11:11.298
You know when you hear the news.
00:11:11.298 --> 00:11:12.799
But the lord called me to new york, so i choose to die
00:11:12.799 --> 00:11:15.535
To say, god, i'm safer in your will in new york than a
00:11:15.535 --> 00:11:19.139
Bunker in montana.
00:11:19.139 --> 00:11:20.707
The christian faith is about embracing the thing he told you
00:11:20.707 --> 00:11:24.578
To do, even if it means certain death to your desire.
00:11:24.578 --> 00:11:28.515
Is this helping anybody? yes.
00:11:29.149 --> 00:11:30.684
I wanted you to look at this verse. it's just one verse.
00:11:31.818 --> 00:11:34.221
But understand everything shifts after this verse.
00:11:34.221 --> 00:11:38.692
And, and jesus is not stumbling towards his destiny.
00:11:38.692 --> 00:11:42.395
He's not drifting towards it, he's choosing it.
00:11:42.395 --> 00:11:46.099
This is okay. now there's a greek phrase
00:11:46.099 --> 00:11:48.869
That i wanna look at in this verse
00:11:48.869 --> 00:11:50.704
Because it's, it's, its extraordinary.
00:11:50.704 --> 00:11:52.739
And that new testament was primarily written in greek,
00:11:52.739 --> 00:11:55.809
So it's gonna help you to understand this.
00:11:55.809 --> 00:11:58.044
And essentially means he fixed his face towards jerusalem.
00:11:58.044 --> 00:12:03.350
And if you go deeper in the greek, he strengthened his face.
00:12:04.518 --> 00:12:07.754
And another translation is he hardened his face.
00:12:07.754 --> 00:12:12.726
So think about when you see a fight
00:12:13.527 --> 00:12:16.363
And people get ready to, you know,
00:12:16.363 --> 00:12:17.931
Think about being on the subway in new york city
00:12:17.931 --> 00:12:19.900
And you know what's going down for all of us sickos,
00:12:19.900 --> 00:12:23.236
We wait for these moments.
00:12:23.236 --> 00:12:25.639
But you set your face. think about an athlete.
00:12:26.540 --> 00:12:30.877
Think about the olympics we just saw.
00:12:30.877 --> 00:12:32.445
It's like they harden their face
00:12:32.445 --> 00:12:35.382
Because there's this level of determination,
00:12:35.382 --> 00:12:37.951
And i think there's many of us.
00:12:38.585 --> 00:12:41.188
Can i say this in love?
00:12:41.688 --> 00:12:43.390
Do i have permission to say a hard thing?
00:12:44.257 --> 00:12:46.393
It's many of us should be so advanced in the faith by now
00:12:47.527 --> 00:12:51.898
Because of how many sermons we've heard
00:12:51.898 --> 00:12:53.800
And how many years we've been in this thing.
00:12:53.800 --> 00:12:56.336
And yet we've never learned to set our faith
00:12:56.336 --> 00:12:59.172
And we're living a life filled with self-imposed confusion.
00:12:59.172 --> 00:13:04.244
You are not confused. you know, the commands of christ.
00:13:05.378 --> 00:13:10.650
You are not confused.
00:13:11.151 --> 00:13:12.319
You know how the future,
00:13:12.319 --> 00:13:13.720
The bible says god does nothing without first revealing
00:13:13.720 --> 00:13:16.122
It to his prophets.
00:13:16.122 --> 00:13:17.257
It's already all been written.
00:13:17.257 --> 00:13:18.892
It's like a play that we're watching.
00:13:18.892 --> 00:13:20.994
And all of these people
00:13:20.994 --> 00:13:22.128
That they think they're getting elected
00:13:22.128 --> 00:13:23.697
And they think that they're bombing
00:13:23.697 --> 00:13:25.065
And they're all playing into god's sovereign will,
00:13:25.065 --> 00:13:27.801
Nothing is happening outside of god's control.
00:13:27.801 --> 00:13:30.437
So you can be mad about the election,
00:13:30.437 --> 00:13:32.572
You could be mad about a war.
00:13:32.572 --> 00:13:34.207
But i'm celebrating knowing
00:13:34.207 --> 00:13:35.909
That the lord divinely allows all of it
00:13:35.909 --> 00:13:38.612
Because he wrote the script and i'm on the winning team.
00:13:38.612 --> 00:13:42.582
I'm not confused. i'm mature in my faith.
00:13:42.582 --> 00:13:45.652
I'm not tossed, chew and fro by every wind of doctrine.
00:13:45.652 --> 00:13:49.522
I know what the word of god says, i'm resolute.
00:13:49.522 --> 00:13:52.559
My feet are on a solid rock. i am not confused.
00:13:52.559 --> 00:13:57.397
But the, the, the difference is this, we have,
00:13:57.397 --> 00:14:00.367
We have been discipled into a, a,
00:14:00.367 --> 00:14:03.203
An emotion based christianity.
00:14:03.203 --> 00:14:06.439
That's why we come for the worship.
00:14:06.439 --> 00:14:08.141
But we leave early in the sermon
00:14:08.141 --> 00:14:10.443
Because we've been discipled into an emotional
00:14:10.443 --> 00:14:13.179
Based christianity.
00:14:13.179 --> 00:14:14.648
That's why we seek people that get our emotions up.
00:14:14.648 --> 00:14:18.618
But the thing about it is we are not to be led by emotions.
00:14:18.618 --> 00:14:21.855
It's a data set, but not a decision maker.
00:14:21.855 --> 00:14:25.191
There is value to emotions,
00:14:25.191 --> 00:14:26.893
But emotions don't make the decision.
00:14:26.893 --> 00:14:29.229
They just inform the decision.
00:14:29.229 --> 00:14:31.231
And when the emotions lie,
00:14:31.231 --> 00:14:33.233
We tell the emotions the same thing we tell our flesh,
00:14:33.233 --> 00:14:36.403
Shut up.
00:14:36.403 --> 00:14:38.038
I feel discouraged. think about david.
00:14:38.872 --> 00:14:43.910
He's being pursued by saul who's throwing javelins trying
00:14:45.045 --> 00:14:48.248
To to kill him.
00:14:48.248 --> 00:14:50.083
He felt anxiety, he felt fear,
00:14:50.083 --> 00:14:54.054
He felt discouraged.
00:14:54.054 --> 00:14:55.755
But what does he write in his journal called psalm?
00:14:55.755 --> 00:14:59.693
Surely goodness
00:15:00.060 --> 00:15:02.262
And mercy shall follow me all the days of my life.
00:15:02.262 --> 00:15:05.498
Well, that wasn't true. saul's following you.
00:15:05.498 --> 00:15:08.702
Saul wants to kill you. well, i don't say what i feel.
00:15:08.702 --> 00:15:12.505
I i say the opposite of what i feel because i'm a prophet
00:15:12.505 --> 00:15:16.609
And i declare and i
00:15:16.609 --> 00:15:18.211
- will eat the fruit of my words.
00:15:18.211 --> 00:15:19.879
So if i say saul is following me, i have an enemy.
00:15:19.879 --> 00:15:23.783
But if i say goodness
00:15:23.783 --> 00:15:25.151
- and mercy or following me, i have a future.
00:15:25.151 --> 00:15:27.687
Some of you need to learn how
00:15:27.687 --> 00:15:29.422
To set your face towards jerusalem.
00:15:29.422 --> 00:15:31.858
Choose your own death to your feelings and say, i feel
00:15:31.858 --> 00:15:35.195
- discouraged, but i have the joy of the lord
00:15:35.195 --> 00:15:38.198
And the joy of the lord is my strength.
00:15:38.198 --> 00:15:43.303
It's my strength.
00:15:43.737 --> 00:15:45.905
- so this is what jesus, and i love the example we have here
00:15:45.905 --> 00:15:49.409
Because it's like jesus knows the outcome you
00:15:49.409 --> 00:15:53.413
That you're talking about, anxiety inducing,
00:15:53.413 --> 00:15:56.916
But he chooses it.
00:15:56.916 --> 00:15:58.318
And what he's modeling for all
00:15:58.318 --> 00:16:00.186
Of us is we don't let our feelings lead.
00:16:00.186 --> 00:16:03.189
Because if david lets his feelings lead,
00:16:03.189 --> 00:16:05.692
He never becomes king.
00:16:05.692 --> 00:16:07.560
If jesus lets his feelings lead,
00:16:07.560 --> 00:16:10.263
He never becomes king of kings.
00:16:10.263 --> 00:16:13.366
Are y'all getting something outta this?
00:16:14.234 --> 00:16:16.636
So your feelings are a data set but not a decision maker.
00:16:16.636 --> 00:16:21.441
I would love to meet you in person as we retrace the steps
00:16:22.609 --> 00:16:26.780
Of the apostle paul on an unforgettable journey
00:16:26.780 --> 00:16:30.150
Through greece and turkey.
00:16:30.150 --> 00:16:31.985
It's gonna be a five star experience
00:16:31.985 --> 00:16:34.354
With not only incredible hotels, but also a cruise.
00:16:34.354 --> 00:16:38.124
And we're gonna go to the very places
00:16:38.124 --> 00:16:40.093
That scripture was written, including patmos, where the book
00:16:40.093 --> 00:16:43.696
Of revelation was written by john.
00:16:43.696 --> 00:16:46.232
I cannot wait to meet you in person, but seats are limited,
00:16:46.232 --> 00:16:50.070
Although they're still available.
00:16:50.070 --> 00:16:51.905
So you have to make the decision now.
00:16:51.905 --> 00:16:54.340
The information's here on the screen.
00:16:54.340 --> 00:16:56.342
Go ahead and take advantage of an experience
00:16:56.342 --> 00:16:59.212
That will last a lifetime.
00:16:59.212 --> 00:17:01.081
I wanna pray with you at these locations
00:17:01.081 --> 00:17:03.516
As we invite the presence of the holy spirit.
00:17:03.516 --> 00:17:06.186
I want to teach you exactly what was happening in culture
00:17:06.186 --> 00:17:09.556
As the scriptures were written.
00:17:09.556 --> 00:17:11.257
I want to have some incredible meals together with you.
00:17:11.257 --> 00:17:14.561
It's going to be amazing.
00:17:14.561 --> 00:17:16.663
But i need you to make that decision now
00:17:16.663 --> 00:17:18.665
Before all of the seats are gone.
00:17:18.665 --> 00:17:21.501
It's gonna be amazing and i can't wait to meet you.
00:17:21.501 --> 00:17:24.637
Go ahead, make that decision to retrace the steps
00:17:24.637 --> 00:17:28.475
Of the apostle paul with mike signorelli on tour.
00:17:28.475 --> 00:17:32.245
Can't wait to see you there when he's,
00:17:32.245 --> 00:17:40.587
When it says he fixed, his face is unshakeable, resolve,
00:17:41.721 --> 00:17:46.493
Unshakeable, resolve.
00:17:46.493 --> 00:17:48.728
I have fixed my face.
00:17:48.728 --> 00:17:51.064
I don't know about you,
00:17:51.064 --> 00:17:52.398
But there comes certain points in our lives
00:17:52.398 --> 00:17:54.734
And i, it's a holy agitation, it is a righteous thing
00:17:54.734 --> 00:17:59.105
That happens when you, when the lord allows your situation
00:17:59.105 --> 00:18:03.042
To go from bad to worse.
00:18:03.042 --> 00:18:05.111
And some of you are like, why is it not working out for me?
00:18:06.312 --> 00:18:09.983
I keep praying and things get worse.
00:18:09.983 --> 00:18:12.819
I'll tell you the answer
00:18:12.819 --> 00:18:14.621
Because the lord is gonna take you to a place where you get
00:18:14.621 --> 00:18:18.791
So irritated and so agitated that you get sick
00:18:18.791 --> 00:18:23.029
And tired of being sick and tired.
00:18:23.029 --> 00:18:25.431
He's taken you to a, oh this is a god is doing it.
00:18:25.431 --> 00:18:28.902
I'm speaking to somebody.
00:18:28.902 --> 00:18:30.303
He, because he wants you to strengthen your resolve.
00:18:30.303 --> 00:18:33.039
And when you say, i can't take anymore, that's god's way
00:18:33.039 --> 00:18:36.009
Of saying, okay, you're almost ready.
00:18:36.009 --> 00:18:37.877
You're almost ready. i'm doing, i'm allowing things
00:18:38.878 --> 00:18:41.080
To go from bad to worse to irritate and agitate
00:18:41.080 --> 00:18:43.883
Because you keep choosing the pain of the same over the pain
00:18:43.883 --> 00:18:47.053
Of change.
00:18:47.053 --> 00:18:48.454
So when you don't change your situation, sometimes god will,
00:18:49.656 --> 00:18:53.526
He's helping you.
00:18:53.960 --> 00:18:55.428
And jesus chooses to go to jerusalem.
00:18:55.428 --> 00:18:57.897
He strengthen is his faith and it's locked in determination.
00:18:57.897 --> 00:19:02.502
And this is not man being dragged to a fate
00:19:02.502 --> 00:19:05.438
That he can't control.
00:19:05.438 --> 00:19:07.407
This is ultimately a man choosing the hardest road in
00:19:07.407 --> 00:19:10.643
Human history.
00:19:10.643 --> 00:19:12.045
And i need you to hear this right now, loud
00:19:12.045 --> 00:19:14.214
And clear all around the world.
00:19:14.214 --> 00:19:15.848
His death was not plan b, stop settling for plan b.
00:19:15.848 --> 00:19:20.720
Be if god said it.
00:19:20.720 --> 00:19:25.959
Believe it. stand on that truth.
00:19:26.593 --> 00:19:29.162
My mother had a degenerative disease in her esophagus
00:19:29.162 --> 00:19:33.166
And she was diagnosed in the late nineties with that.
00:19:33.166 --> 00:19:36.135
But i had given her a prophecy
00:19:36.135 --> 00:19:37.704
That god was gonna miraculously heal her esophagus, which
00:19:37.704 --> 00:19:41.407
By the way, the doctor said is medically impossible.
00:19:41.407 --> 00:19:44.711
So now we have two realities.
00:19:44.711 --> 00:19:46.613
What god said, what access we have
00:19:46.613 --> 00:19:49.849
To his promises in the word and what the doctor said.
00:19:49.849 --> 00:19:53.820
Soon when you set your face towards jerusalem,
00:19:53.820 --> 00:19:56.089
What you're saying is, i choose
00:19:56.089 --> 00:19:57.790
What god says even in the face of something
00:19:57.790 --> 00:20:01.027
That looks verifiable in the natural.
00:20:01.027 --> 00:20:03.596
Well, you know what, it may have taken 25 years
00:20:03.596 --> 00:20:06.866
And i don't know why there was such a long duration of time,
00:20:06.866 --> 00:20:10.370
But i will tell you this, when my mom walked into
00:20:10.370 --> 00:20:12.872
That doctor's office last year
00:20:12.872 --> 00:20:14.707
And they told her, throw your medication away,
00:20:14.707 --> 00:20:17.377
You don't even need it anymore.
00:20:17.377 --> 00:20:19.312
She's sitting right in front of you right now, a testament
00:20:19.312 --> 00:20:22.982
That god will do what he said he will do.
00:20:22.982 --> 00:20:25.985
But here's the thing, my mother had a choice.
00:20:25.985 --> 00:20:28.688
Am i gonna set my face towards jerusalem
00:20:28.688 --> 00:20:31.357
Or am i gonna go back to nazareth?
00:20:31.357 --> 00:20:35.561
Some of you are turning around right now, getting ready
00:20:36.629 --> 00:20:40.767
To go back to what's familiar,
00:20:40.767 --> 00:20:42.702
Even though they don't honor the anointing on your life
00:20:42.702 --> 00:20:45.405
Instead of moving forward into jerusalem
00:20:45.405 --> 00:20:48.041
Because it's unfamiliar.
00:20:48.041 --> 00:20:49.475
And my mother, every single year, she said,
00:20:49.475 --> 00:20:51.878
God said i was gonna be healed.
00:20:51.878 --> 00:20:53.880
And i've set my face towards jerusalem,
00:20:53.880 --> 00:20:56.249
And i know on the other side
00:20:56.249 --> 00:20:57.684
Of this cross is a resurrection.
00:20:57.684 --> 00:20:59.485
And last year it happened.
00:20:59.485 --> 00:21:01.421
So if you're watching this right now,
00:21:01.421 --> 00:21:02.889
If you're here at any one of our campuses
00:21:02.889 --> 00:21:04.957
And you've got something
00:21:04.957 --> 00:21:06.526
That the doctors say is medically
00:21:06.526 --> 00:21:08.294
Incurable, you know what i tell you?
00:21:08.294 --> 00:21:10.163
Set your face towards jerusalem, set your face,
00:21:10.163 --> 00:21:15.401
Set your face towards jerusalem.
00:21:16.035 --> 00:21:17.270
Don't back down. don't give up.
00:21:17.270 --> 00:21:19.339
They say the cancer is gonna be unto death,
00:21:19.339 --> 00:21:21.941
But i say he's defeated death, he's defeated.
00:21:21.941 --> 00:21:25.211
Come on hell in the grave. we gotta choose what we believe.
00:21:25.211 --> 00:21:28.581
Set your faith. somebody shouts, set your face grave.
00:21:28.581 --> 00:21:33.386
So when you look at this, it's crazy.
00:21:33.386 --> 00:21:36.322
It wasn't god turning the, the, the,
00:21:36.322 --> 00:21:38.458
The enemy scheme into something good after the fact.
00:21:38.458 --> 00:21:42.695
The cross, that that was for this, the redemptive plan.
00:21:42.695 --> 00:21:46.766
It was planned from the very beginning.
00:21:46.766 --> 00:21:49.202
So god knew all the, it's never a shock to god.
00:21:49.202 --> 00:21:52.972
And later jesus says to himself,
00:21:53.606 --> 00:21:56.008
No one can take my life from me
00:21:56.008 --> 00:21:58.044
Because i sacrifice it voluntarily.
00:21:58.044 --> 00:22:00.380
So it raises the question, was jesus murdered
00:22:00.380 --> 00:22:03.282
Or was he sacrificed?
00:22:03.282 --> 00:22:05.184
Murder is when it happens against his will.
00:22:06.119 --> 00:22:08.988
But he became the sacrifice
00:22:08.988 --> 00:22:10.623
Because he was the lamb that offered himself.
00:22:10.623 --> 00:22:13.659
Nobody took his life.
00:22:13.659 --> 00:22:18.564
How many victims do we have in this church?
00:22:19.465 --> 00:22:22.935
Well, mike, i would be normal if i didn't have
00:22:23.836 --> 00:22:25.972
Abusive stepparents.
00:22:25.972 --> 00:22:27.807
How many victims? well, mike,
00:22:28.441 --> 00:22:29.976
I would volunteer at the church if the other
00:22:29.976 --> 00:22:31.778
Church didn't hurt me.
00:22:31.778 --> 00:22:33.179
How many victims?
00:22:33.179 --> 00:22:34.881
Oh, mike, you know, i would give, if, if,
00:22:34.881 --> 00:22:36.716
If the church didn't only want my money, oh, oh, you know,
00:22:36.716 --> 00:22:40.887
I would ask somebody on a, on a date,
00:22:40.887 --> 00:22:43.156
But i've been in some bad relationships.
00:22:43.156 --> 00:22:45.091
How many victims do we have in this church?
00:22:45.091 --> 00:22:46.926
I'm looking for victims right now. see, here's the thing.
00:22:46.926 --> 00:22:52.298
Jesus was not a victim.
00:22:52.799 --> 00:22:54.634
Jesus said, you can't kill me because i offer my life.
00:22:55.735 --> 00:22:59.138
You can't steal from somebody who gives freely you.
00:22:59.138 --> 00:23:03.776
You understand what i'm saying?
00:23:03.776 --> 00:23:04.811
And, and i think for us, we need
00:23:04.811 --> 00:23:06.279
To get out of the victim seat.
00:23:06.279 --> 00:23:08.414
Listen, when i, that other church, they did abuse me.
00:23:08.414 --> 00:23:11.551
But guess what? when i was serving them,
00:23:11.551 --> 00:23:13.352
I was never serving them.
00:23:13.352 --> 00:23:14.720
The bible says that when i gave it was as if i gave
00:23:14.720 --> 00:23:16.923
To christ himself.
00:23:16.923 --> 00:23:18.291
Hey, let's talk about the money.
00:23:18.291 --> 00:23:20.159
They may have misused the money, but i didn't mishandle it.
00:23:20.159 --> 00:23:23.729
They misused it, but i didn't mishandle it.
00:23:23.729 --> 00:23:26.432
It came through me. my job was to sow.
00:23:26.432 --> 00:23:29.635
- their job was to steward it. i ain't got no problem.
00:23:29.635 --> 00:23:32.839
I gave that money to the feet of jesus
00:23:32.839 --> 00:23:35.341
And they messed up. but i didn't mess
00:23:35.341 --> 00:23:37.310
- up.
00:23:37.310 --> 00:23:38.845
I'm not a victim. in a few moments, i wanna pray for you.
00:23:38.845 --> 00:23:42.448
You know, i've seen medically verifiable miracles
00:23:42.448 --> 00:23:45.051
All around the world.
00:23:45.051 --> 00:23:46.352
I wanna pray for you. i,
00:23:46.352 --> 00:23:48.054
I've actually seen people delivered from demons in moments.
00:23:48.054 --> 00:23:51.023
But the greatest miracle is salvation.
00:23:51.023 --> 00:23:53.392
It's when someone who's dead in their sin, literally headed
00:23:53.392 --> 00:23:56.796
To hell, is saved by jesus christ and made to be alive
00:23:56.796 --> 00:24:01.167
And headed to heaven.
00:24:01.167 --> 00:24:02.735
And that can happen if you do what romans chapter 10,
00:24:02.735 --> 00:24:05.438
Verse nine says, confess with your mouth,
00:24:05.438 --> 00:24:07.840
Believe in your heart and you will be saved.
00:24:07.840 --> 00:24:10.243
It's that we don't earn it, we don't deserve it,
00:24:10.243 --> 00:24:12.712
We just receive it.
00:24:12.712 --> 00:24:14.413
So i want you to repeat these words with me
00:24:14.413 --> 00:24:16.849
Because i don't believe in accidents
00:24:16.849 --> 00:24:18.351
And the holy spirit's been drawing you.
00:24:18.351 --> 00:24:20.353
Say it with me. heavenly father, i thank you for the cross
00:24:20.353 --> 00:24:24.423
Where my sins were forgiven.
00:24:24.423 --> 00:24:26.726
Wash me with your blood. i am a disciple.
00:24:26.726 --> 00:24:30.696
I surrender my life completely.
00:24:30.696 --> 00:24:32.965
And i will follow you on the narrow road in jesus' name.
00:24:32.965 --> 00:24:37.503
Come on, say it boldly. amen.
00:24:37.503 --> 00:24:39.872
Well, i'm so glad that you just made that decision
00:24:39.872 --> 00:24:42.308
To give your life to jesus.
00:24:42.308 --> 00:24:43.876
I would actually like to help you on your
00:24:43.876 --> 00:24:45.778
Journey as a disciple.
00:24:45.778 --> 00:24:47.313
And if you scan the qr code,
00:24:47.313 --> 00:24:48.915
We will immediately send you a free prayer guide
00:24:48.915 --> 00:24:52.618
That will actually give you access to prayers for anxiety
00:24:52.618 --> 00:24:56.022
And just different physical conditions you
00:24:56.022 --> 00:24:58.357
Might be struggling with.
00:24:58.357 --> 00:24:59.492
And it's a great resource and a tool.
00:24:59.492 --> 00:25:01.961
As a matter of fact, we also have prayer team members
00:25:01.961 --> 00:25:04.397
That are standing by waiting for you to reach out.
00:25:04.397 --> 00:25:06.966
Now, i'll see you in the next episode.
00:25:06.966 --> 00:25:10.403
Hey, i need your help.
00:25:10.403 --> 00:25:11.671
You know, here in new york city,
00:25:11.671 --> 00:25:13.072
I am reaching young people for christ.
00:25:13.072 --> 00:25:15.741
And we are seeing them from every different background,
00:25:15.741 --> 00:25:18.844
Just except jesus.
00:25:18.844 --> 00:25:20.246
I mean, it's truly like a movement.
00:25:20.246 --> 00:25:22.214
We're actually taking nightclubs
00:25:22.214 --> 00:25:24.216
And turning them into churches on sunday mornings.
00:25:24.216 --> 00:25:27.186
And it is a very hard thing.
00:25:27.186 --> 00:25:29.555
But the reason why i say that is
00:25:29.555 --> 00:25:30.990
Because these are young people like your grandchildren
00:25:30.990 --> 00:25:34.226
And you know, like your nieces and nephews
00:25:34.226 --> 00:25:36.729
And we're leading them to christ.
00:25:36.729 --> 00:25:38.130
But i, here's why i need your help.
00:25:38.130 --> 00:25:39.632
First of all, pray for us.
00:25:39.632 --> 00:25:41.467
And secondly, if you would consider give,
00:25:41.467 --> 00:25:44.503
Giving a gift to the ministry.
00:25:44.503 --> 00:25:46.706
If you call the number on the screen right now,
00:25:46.706 --> 00:25:48.841
We have prayer team members that'll pray with you,
00:25:48.841 --> 00:25:51.310
But just consider helping us on this mission.
00:25:51.310 --> 00:25:54.413
But i want to tell you one of the reasons why you might feel
00:25:54.413 --> 00:25:57.116
So connected to my preaching is
00:25:57.116 --> 00:25:59.218
Because you're not retired, you're refire
00:25:59.218 --> 00:26:01.754
And god is reigniting you
00:26:01.754 --> 00:26:03.756
And he's actually causing you to be on fire again
00:26:03.756 --> 00:26:06.926
And return to your first love.
00:26:06.926 --> 00:26:09.095
And so help us as we're on this mission.
00:26:09.095 --> 00:26:11.664
I never thought that out
00:26:11.664 --> 00:26:13.165
Of new york city i would be bringing a television show
00:26:13.165 --> 00:26:16.369
All around the world.
00:26:16.369 --> 00:26:17.703
And it's been a tremendous sacrifice for us.
00:26:17.703 --> 00:26:20.473
But i just believe that as we come together all
00:26:20.473 --> 00:26:23.209
Around the world right now, you can help us.
00:26:23.209 --> 00:26:25.811
And if you so into young people,
00:26:25.811 --> 00:26:28.648
Just like your grandchildren, just like your nieces
00:26:28.648 --> 00:26:31.050
And nephews, i believe
00:26:31.050 --> 00:26:32.418
That you'll reap a harvest in your own family.
00:26:32.418 --> 00:26:35.221
So the information's on the screen right now.
00:26:35.221 --> 00:26:37.056
You can scan the qr code and you can sow a seed.
00:26:37.056 --> 00:26:40.660
You can support us and also you can call in now and
00:26:40.660 --> 00:26:45.498
And meet with our team as well.
00:26:45.498 --> 00:26:47.299
So thank you so much for being a part of the broadcast
00:26:47.299 --> 00:26:50.136
And being a partner for our ministry
00:26:50.136 --> 00:26:52.438
To help not just in new york city, but around the world.
00:26:52.438 --> 00:26:55.741
- jesus said in matthew seven, narrow is the gate
00:26:56.742 --> 00:27:00.212
And difficult is the way that leads to life.
00:27:00.212 --> 00:27:03.416
In a world that celebrates compromise, god calls us
00:27:03.416 --> 00:27:06.852
To live set apart, to walk the narrow way with courage,
00:27:06.852 --> 00:27:11.524
Conviction, and faith.
00:27:11.524 --> 00:27:13.993
