| Mike Signorelli - The Power of True Surrender | June 9, 2026

- most people follow jesus without really knowing
00:00:00.560 --> 00:00:03.163
Where he went or why every place he walked was chosen.
00:00:03.163 --> 00:00:07.667
Every confrontation was intentional.
00:00:07.667 --> 00:00:10.136
Every step was advancing the kingdom of god.
00:00:10.136 --> 00:00:13.106
And he's inviting you to walk the same way,
00:00:13.106 --> 00:00:16.342
Not in confusion, not walking in fear,
00:00:16.342 --> 00:00:19.412
But walking in true authority journey with jesus walks you
00:00:19.412 --> 00:00:24.217
Through every step of jesus' ministry, not just as history,
00:00:24.217 --> 00:00:28.555
But as a map for your life right now.
00:00:28.555 --> 00:00:30.824
So get your copy at the link on your screen
00:00:30.824 --> 00:00:33.226
Because followers of jesus don't wander.
00:00:33.226 --> 00:00:36.429
They actually advance.
00:00:36.429 --> 00:00:38.031
This is your time to take your next step in discipleship.
00:00:38.031 --> 00:00:41.634
Get the book now.
00:00:41.634 --> 00:00:48.208
- the narrow way broadcast
00:00:48.775 --> 00:00:50.376
Is brought to you in part by partners
00:00:50.376 --> 00:00:51.945
Of mike signorelli ministries and viewers like you.
00:00:51.945 --> 00:00:55.982
- i was the executive pastor
00:00:55.982 --> 00:00:58.384
And my role was to be invisible for three years.
00:00:58.384 --> 00:01:01.888
I didn't preach with this fire shut up in my bones.
00:01:01.888 --> 00:01:05.291
Every time i would get invited
00:01:05.291 --> 00:01:06.926
To preach at a major conference overseas,
00:01:06.926 --> 00:01:09.662
The pastor would say, the answer's no, we need you here.
00:01:09.662 --> 00:01:13.566
And i took a no for three years from my pastor
00:01:13.566 --> 00:01:16.302
And ultimately, how many of you know
00:01:16.302 --> 00:01:17.871
Through authority from god?
00:01:17.871 --> 00:01:19.706
And i said, god, why would you give me a
00:01:19.706 --> 00:01:21.508
Gift and not use it?
00:01:21.508 --> 00:01:22.942
I didn't understand how to go from matthew 21 christian
00:01:24.043 --> 00:01:27.914
To revelation seven.
00:01:27.914 --> 00:01:29.449
Christian. hey, this is mike signorelli with the narrow way.
00:01:29.449 --> 00:01:32.819
And i've got some crazy testimonies to tell you.
00:01:32.819 --> 00:01:35.054
So first of all, my team just let me know
00:01:35.054 --> 00:01:37.257
That we had people reaching out saying that they decided not
00:01:37.257 --> 00:01:40.460
To end their life as a result of the message.
00:01:40.460 --> 00:01:43.596
They heard the sermon and they made a decision also.
00:01:43.596 --> 00:01:47.834
This is crazy, but i know you believe it.
00:01:47.834 --> 00:01:50.036
God is still a supernatural god who answers prayers.
00:01:50.036 --> 00:01:53.940
And we have prayer team members that have been praying
00:01:53.940 --> 00:01:56.442
For people on the phone lines,
00:01:56.442 --> 00:01:58.044
And we've gotten reports of medically verifiable miracles.
00:01:58.044 --> 00:02:01.181
We've been encouraging people go back to the doctor,
00:02:01.181 --> 00:02:03.449
Get the results like we believe.
00:02:03.449 --> 00:02:05.385
Yes, we believe in medicine,
00:02:05.385 --> 00:02:07.120
But also we believe that it will be confirmed what god did.
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:11.090
And so those reports are coming in,
00:02:11.090 --> 00:02:13.059
But i wanted to sincerely thank each and every one of you.
00:02:13.059 --> 00:02:15.595
It's actually because of your support that we're able
00:02:15.595 --> 00:02:18.498
To get these messages out.
00:02:18.498 --> 00:02:20.166
So because you're a partner, we pray for you.
00:02:20.166 --> 00:02:23.369
I mean, as a matter of fact, we wanna pray for you today,
00:02:23.369 --> 00:02:26.940
But specifically continue your support
00:02:26.940 --> 00:02:30.076
Because i believe that we've only just begun.
00:02:30.076 --> 00:02:32.745
How many of you believe
00:02:32.745 --> 00:02:34.047
That we're gonna see god do even greater things
00:02:34.047 --> 00:02:36.416
As we continue with the narrow way?
00:02:36.416 --> 00:02:39.018
So let's jump into this week's message.
00:02:39.018 --> 00:02:41.621
This path is already narrow
00:02:42.222 --> 00:02:44.224
And we will forge forward, making no excuse
00:02:44.224 --> 00:02:47.193
For why we can live uncompromised in this generation.
00:02:47.193 --> 00:02:50.730
- lock in, give me a hundred people who will walk
00:02:50.730 --> 00:02:54.634
That narrow road
00:02:54.634 --> 00:02:56.035
And say, i may have some things in my family,
00:02:56.035 --> 00:02:59.439
But i where it runs out.
00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:02.675
- open your bibles to matthew chapter 21,
00:03:03.576 --> 00:03:06.980
Matthew chapter 21.
00:03:06.980 --> 00:03:09.315
And i am going to begin to set the stage for the scene
00:03:09.315 --> 00:03:14.020
For palm sunday, the original,
00:03:14.020 --> 00:03:15.822
The very first time this happened.
00:03:15.822 --> 00:03:17.590
And so when you look at matthew chapter 21,
00:03:17.590 --> 00:03:21.027
You see this picture that's unfolding now at v1 church.
00:03:21.027 --> 00:03:25.198
What makes us different than many other churches is i wanna
00:03:25.198 --> 00:03:28.935
Learn the word of god
00:03:28.935 --> 00:03:30.236
And i wanna learn the scripture together.
00:03:30.236 --> 00:03:32.538
And i want to go deep into the scriptures.
00:03:32.538 --> 00:03:34.841
And my prayer is that i'm cultivating an appetite in you
00:03:34.841 --> 00:03:38.878
To actually get into the, the word of god.
00:03:38.878 --> 00:03:41.447
So that's why i wrote the book journey with jesus
00:03:41.447 --> 00:03:44.684
And turned all of these sermons,
00:03:44.684 --> 00:03:46.719
And you'll find that in the book journey with jesus.
00:03:46.719 --> 00:03:49.122
There's even things that didn't make it into the sermons
00:03:49.122 --> 00:03:53.059
That made it into the book,
00:03:53.059 --> 00:03:54.294
Because i wanna make sure that you are,
00:03:54.294 --> 00:03:56.229
Are deeply discipled at this church.
00:03:56.229 --> 00:03:59.065
I think oftentimes when you look at scripture on face
00:03:59.065 --> 00:04:03.169
Value, it seems to say something,
00:04:03.169 --> 00:04:06.372
But you've gotta go in on a deeper level to determine like
00:04:06.372 --> 00:04:09.876
What is it actually saying?
00:04:09.876 --> 00:04:11.778
So i've heard this preached the wrong way
00:04:11.778 --> 00:04:15.882
Many, many times.
00:04:15.882 --> 00:04:17.317
So it's with a deep conviction that i want to give you
00:04:17.317 --> 00:04:20.186
What this text is actually saying.
00:04:20.186 --> 00:04:23.189
I'm gonna start with verse seven.
00:04:23.189 --> 00:04:25.591
And the two disciples brought him the donkey
00:04:25.591 --> 00:04:29.529
And put on them their clothes,
00:04:29.529 --> 00:04:31.331
And they set him there on verse eight says,
00:04:31.331 --> 00:04:34.233
And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way
00:04:34.233 --> 00:04:38.705
Others cut down branches from the street, from the trees
00:04:38.705 --> 00:04:42.508
And straw them in the way.
00:04:42.508 --> 00:04:44.410
And the multitudes that went before.
00:04:44.410 --> 00:04:47.547
And that followed, they cried out saying, hosanna,
00:04:47.547 --> 00:04:50.983
Or in hebrew, it's like, ho, you know,
00:04:50.983 --> 00:04:54.354
I've been saying hoshiana brushing up on my hebrew last
00:04:54.354 --> 00:04:57.457
Night, but it's as sim simply their way of saying,
00:04:57.457 --> 00:05:00.393
Deliver me now.
00:05:00.393 --> 00:05:01.427
Save me now.
00:05:01.427 --> 00:05:02.829
So they're crying out, deliver me now, save now.
00:05:02.829 --> 00:05:05.932
And then they're saying, you know, the son of david,
00:05:05.932 --> 00:05:08.534
Blessed is he that comes in the name of the lord,
00:05:08.534 --> 00:05:11.070
Hosanna in the highest.
00:05:11.070 --> 00:05:13.239
And verse 10 says,
00:05:13.239 --> 00:05:14.474
And when he was coming to jerusalem,
00:05:14.474 --> 00:05:17.477
All the city was moved saying, who is this man?
00:05:17.477 --> 00:05:21.781
But then the multitude replies,
00:05:21.781 --> 00:05:23.583
This is jesus the prophet of nazareth.
00:05:23.583 --> 00:05:27.086
Of galilee. okay, let's just break this down, this scene.
00:05:27.086 --> 00:05:31.290
So jesus who's he comes from nazareth,
00:05:31.290 --> 00:05:34.894
He begins to travel through.
00:05:34.894 --> 00:05:36.295
Now he enters into jerusalem during one of the feasts
00:05:36.295 --> 00:05:39.966
That the jewish people would celebrate called passover.
00:05:39.966 --> 00:05:43.302
So now
00:05:43.302 --> 00:05:44.904
What makes this such a bizarre occurrence is you didn't take
00:05:44.904 --> 00:05:49.509
Branches and,
00:05:49.509 --> 00:05:51.110
And go through this ritualistic worship
00:05:51.110 --> 00:05:54.614
And cry hosanna during passover.
00:05:54.614 --> 00:05:57.917
As a matter of fact, the only time they would take branches
00:05:57.917 --> 00:06:00.153
Down and use the branches as a part
00:06:00.153 --> 00:06:02.455
Of worship would've been feast of tabernacles.
00:06:02.455 --> 00:06:06.058
Sukkot, it's called for.
00:06:06.058 --> 00:06:07.827
And the jewish people know what i'm talking about.
00:06:07.827 --> 00:06:10.296
So it's kind of like weird to celebrate sukkot
00:06:10.296 --> 00:06:13.933
During passover.
00:06:13.933 --> 00:06:15.368
It's like a celebration out of season.
00:06:15.368 --> 00:06:18.504
But there's a prophetic aspect to this that's happening
00:06:18.504 --> 00:06:21.574
Because when jesus enters jerusalem,
00:06:21.574 --> 00:06:24.110
The multitudes start picking up on there could be a
00:06:24.110 --> 00:06:27.280
Possibility that this man is the messiah.
00:06:27.280 --> 00:06:30.316
Let me get a palm branch. who has one?
00:06:30.316 --> 00:06:32.385
Can somebody just run a palm branch up to me?
00:06:32.385 --> 00:06:35.121
I, okay, okay, thank you so much.
00:06:35.855 --> 00:06:41.027
Gracias or grazie.
00:06:41.461 --> 00:06:45.698
So this, so they're basically take these palm branches,
00:06:45.698 --> 00:06:49.101
And what they would've been done doing is they would've been
00:06:49.101 --> 00:06:51.404
Saying hosanna.
00:06:51.404 --> 00:06:53.005
And they would've most likely done this three times in every
00:06:53.005 --> 00:06:56.175
Single direction.
00:06:56.175 --> 00:06:57.677
And what they were prophetically declaring was,
00:06:57.677 --> 00:07:00.680
Deliver me now, save me now.
00:07:00.680 --> 00:07:03.983
But there was a big expectation that when they,
00:07:03.983 --> 00:07:07.553
While they were declaring this, that the man
00:07:07.553 --> 00:07:10.256
That they were declaring would deliver them,
00:07:10.256 --> 00:07:12.658
Would deliver them politically
00:07:12.658 --> 00:07:14.660
Because they were, even though they were jews,
00:07:14.660 --> 00:07:17.597
And they were able to worship in the temple
00:07:17.597 --> 00:07:19.899
And carry out of their daily lives,
00:07:19.899 --> 00:07:22.001
They were doing this under a roman occupation.
00:07:22.001 --> 00:07:24.971
And they wanted to be free from that.
00:07:24.971 --> 00:07:27.240
And so they viewed their messiah
00:07:27.240 --> 00:07:29.575
As primarily a political leader.
00:07:29.575 --> 00:07:32.078
Now, they did believe he was gonna bring spiritual
00:07:32.078 --> 00:07:34.847
Salvation, but that wasn't all that they believed.
00:07:34.847 --> 00:07:38.217
And the biggest evidence of of,
00:07:38.217 --> 00:07:41.587
Of really their true confusion is found in
00:07:41.587 --> 00:07:46.325
Matthew's depiction of the story.
00:07:46.325 --> 00:07:48.895
Because when you read mark
00:07:48.895 --> 00:07:50.763
And luke's depiction of the story, he,
00:07:50.763 --> 00:07:53.799
They omit this detail.
00:07:53.799 --> 00:07:56.002
But there's something i wanna read you verse 11.
00:07:56.002 --> 00:07:58.304
And the multitude said,
00:07:58.304 --> 00:08:00.072
This is jesus the prophet of nazareth.
00:08:00.072 --> 00:08:03.476
Of galilee. that right here is the crux
00:08:03.476 --> 00:08:06.646
Of the entire sermon.
00:08:06.646 --> 00:08:08.281
Because even though jesus was a prophet, as a matter
00:08:08.281 --> 00:08:11.784
Of fact, even secular jewish scholars who do not believe
00:08:11.784 --> 00:08:16.689
That jesus was the messiah,
00:08:16.689 --> 00:08:18.658
They do also acknowledge the fact
00:08:18.658 --> 00:08:20.793
That he prophesied the destruction
00:08:20.793 --> 00:08:22.795
Of the temple in jerusalem.
00:08:22.795 --> 00:08:24.597
And it actually happened
00:08:24.597 --> 00:08:25.965
After jesus' death, just like jesus said it would.
00:08:25.965 --> 00:08:29.035
And i█ve met with historians and scholars
00:08:29.035 --> 00:08:31.537
That say, “i don█t believe that he was the messiah,
00:08:31.537 --> 00:08:34.473
But his description of what will happen to the temple
00:08:34.473 --> 00:08:37.510
Literally happened shortly after his death,
00:08:37.510 --> 00:08:41.347
And so we believe he was a prophet.
00:08:41.347 --> 00:08:43.182
Also, if you study the world religions, islam believes
00:08:43.182 --> 00:08:46.953
That jesus wa was a prophet as well.
00:08:46.953 --> 00:08:50.723
And so when the crowd responds,
00:08:50.723 --> 00:08:53.225
And i think matthew was divinely inspired by the holy spirit
00:08:53.225 --> 00:08:56.696
To give us this detail, it says,
00:08:56.696 --> 00:08:58.698
And the multitude said, everybody say multitude.
00:08:58.698 --> 00:09:01.601
M okay, the multitude said,
00:09:01.601 --> 00:09:03.302
This is jesus the prophet of nazareth.
00:09:03.302 --> 00:09:05.404
Of galilee. so watch they have a palm branch.
00:09:05.404 --> 00:09:09.508
They're saying, deliver me.
00:09:10.109 --> 00:09:11.644
Now they're acknowledging him as maybe he is the messiah
00:09:11.644 --> 00:09:16.349
And they're worshiping, as a matter of fact, the other thing
00:09:16.349 --> 00:09:19.685
That they're doing, okay, hold on,
00:09:19.685 --> 00:09:20.820
I'm gonna do an illustrated sermon.
00:09:20.820 --> 00:09:22.188
It's gonna get weird. okay, are you with me?
00:09:22.188 --> 00:09:31.063
They see that he's coming down the kidron valley
00:09:32.031 --> 00:09:36.002
And he's gonna come into jerusalem,
00:09:36.002 --> 00:09:38.070
And they believe that they're their political leader,
00:09:38.070 --> 00:09:40.740
That they're, that they're soon to be king is coming in.
00:09:40.740 --> 00:09:44.076
And so they all begin to take their coats.
00:09:44.076 --> 00:09:46.245
Now for us, y'all are going to jc penney, y'all are going
00:09:46.245 --> 00:09:49.649
To tj maxx.
00:09:49.649 --> 00:09:51.283
I know my wife has destroyed our bank account
00:09:51.283 --> 00:09:54.286
With these pla absolutely destroyed, you know, you know,
00:09:54.286 --> 00:09:58.157
What other places do you go to, babe?
00:09:58.157 --> 00:09:59.992
It's really just that. yeah.
00:09:59.992 --> 00:10:01.861
See, i know those demons by name.
00:10:01.861 --> 00:10:04.664
I, i speak to him in the spirit.
00:10:04.664 --> 00:10:06.465
You de you foul spirit of tj maxx.
00:10:06.465 --> 00:10:10.036
No, right? so we don't think anything of it.
00:10:10.970 --> 00:10:14.306
And my wife says, well, everything was on sale.
00:10:14.306 --> 00:10:16.809
I'm like, yep. but you bought so many sale items
00:10:16.809 --> 00:10:20.046
That you could have got a gucci or a louie.
00:10:20.046 --> 00:10:22.548
Okay, that's a whole nother story.
00:10:23.315 --> 00:10:25.217
She█ll buy $300 worth of $5 clothes
00:10:25.217 --> 00:10:28.154
And tell me she got a deal
00:10:28.154 --> 00:10:30.222
I█m like, “just get yourself something nice
00:10:30.222 --> 00:10:31.857
If you█re gonna ruin my month.”
00:10:31.857 --> 00:10:35.161
But it█s hard for us
00:10:35.628 --> 00:10:37.663
To understand the significance of this moment.
00:10:37.663 --> 00:10:39.799
Because for them there was no mass manufacturing,
00:10:39.799 --> 00:10:43.669
In bangledesh
00:10:43.669 --> 00:10:45.438
There was no mass manufacturing.
00:10:45.438 --> 00:10:48.407
Fast fashion didn█t exist
00:10:48.941 --> 00:10:51.377
So to make a coat would require sometimes over a
00:10:51.377 --> 00:10:55.114
Year of individual spindles coming together
00:10:55.114 --> 00:10:59.318
And meticulously crafting it would've been your prized
00:10:59.318 --> 00:11:01.821
Possession was your coat.
00:11:01.821 --> 00:11:03.656
So imagine all these people take their coats
00:11:03.656 --> 00:11:06.392
And they, they symbolically lay them down on the ground.
00:11:06.392 --> 00:11:10.996
And so here comes their king,
00:11:10.996 --> 00:11:14.200
And he's riding down on this cold, and he's in the cold.
00:11:14.200 --> 00:11:17.603
This, this common animal is treading upon their most
00:11:17.603 --> 00:11:21.974
Precious item.
00:11:21.974 --> 00:11:23.676
So, i mean, think about that.
00:11:24.310 --> 00:11:25.811
It, it's like taking the nicest thing
00:11:25.811 --> 00:11:28.114
That you own and laying it down.
00:11:28.114 --> 00:11:30.149
It's covered with dirt on one side
00:11:30.149 --> 00:11:32.351
And the hooves of a cult on the other side walking over.
00:11:32.351 --> 00:11:35.154
So it would appear, okay, i'm about to preach this.
00:11:35.154 --> 00:11:38.057
It would appear as if it was a lavish, i mean,
00:11:38.057 --> 00:11:42.428
Extreme version of worship that was happening.
00:11:42.428 --> 00:11:46.332
So i understand why most pastors preach this the wrong way,
00:11:46.332 --> 00:11:50.870
Because on the surface, it looks
00:11:50.870 --> 00:11:53.506
As if they're acknowledging him as the messiah.
00:11:53.506 --> 00:11:55.875
And they're extravagant acts of generosity
00:11:55.875 --> 00:11:58.677
By throwing their coat down
00:11:58.677 --> 00:12:00.412
And they're waving their palm branches.
00:12:00.412 --> 00:12:02.648
But we know that there are many people in that crowd
00:12:02.648 --> 00:12:06.118
That days later are gonna switch from crying out.
00:12:06.118 --> 00:12:10.055
Hosanna deliver me now to shaking their fist violently,
00:12:10.055 --> 00:12:14.660
Saying, crucify and kill this man.
00:12:14.660 --> 00:12:17.563
So there's gotta, there's a tension that's in this text,
00:12:18.697 --> 00:12:22.935
And we've gotta acknowledge this tension
00:12:22.935 --> 00:12:25.137
Because it's not just in the text.
00:12:25.137 --> 00:12:27.306
There's a lot of this same tension in your heart.
00:12:27.306 --> 00:12:30.609
There's a lot of this tension in your life
00:12:31.510 --> 00:12:33.813
And your relationship with christ.
00:12:33.813 --> 00:12:35.848
So you need to follow me
00:12:35.848 --> 00:12:37.249
Because it says, the multitude said,
00:12:37.249 --> 00:12:40.219
This is jesus the prophet of nazareth.
00:12:40.219 --> 00:12:43.189
So let me just say, when you need a word from god, i'm
00:12:43.189 --> 00:12:46.992
So confused.
00:12:46.992 --> 00:12:48.694
I'm so tormented by my life. i don't know where to go.
00:12:48.694 --> 00:12:51.764
Do i move to to florida like everybody else?
00:12:51.764 --> 00:12:54.533
Do i move to the carolinas? do i get a job here?
00:12:54.533 --> 00:12:57.970
You know, there's my, you know, my boss is demonized.
00:12:57.970 --> 00:13:00.539
I gotta get out of there. do i?
00:13:00.539 --> 00:13:04.243
You know, i'm so, you know, you know when you're perplexed,
00:13:04.243 --> 00:13:07.012
Oh, i hope they post the word and i hope it's for me.
00:13:07.012 --> 00:13:10.115
And you go to a prophet when you need a word from god.
00:13:10.115 --> 00:13:13.219
But that is not transformational faith.
00:13:13.219 --> 00:13:16.722
That is transactional ambition.
00:13:16.722 --> 00:13:19.425
So we've gotta make a distinction between ambition
00:13:20.459 --> 00:13:23.963
That becomes transactional versus faith
00:13:23.963 --> 00:13:27.233
That becomes transformational.
00:13:27.233 --> 00:13:29.068
This is where i'm about to preach it
00:13:29.068 --> 00:13:30.736
Because see, it's, it took me pastoring for 20 years
00:13:30.736 --> 00:13:34.506
To begin to read the bible
00:13:34.506 --> 00:13:36.308
And make a discernment about who these people really were.
00:13:36.308 --> 00:13:39.979
The truth is, they called him a prophet
00:13:39.979 --> 00:13:42.681
Because they needed a word.
00:13:42.681 --> 00:13:44.250
They went, they all come on.
00:13:44.250 --> 00:13:45.618
They wanted a savior, but not a lord.
00:13:45.618 --> 00:13:48.687
You submit to a lord, you get delivered by a savior.
00:13:49.722 --> 00:13:53.492
And everybody who's gotten themselves in trouble would
00:13:53.492 --> 00:13:56.562
Like some help.
00:13:56.562 --> 00:13:58.130
But very few people want to surrender and want to submit.
00:13:58.130 --> 00:14:02.468
So when you ask somebody, hey,
00:14:02.468 --> 00:14:04.069
It looks like you made a bad financial decision
00:14:04.069 --> 00:14:06.405
Because you just bought $300 worth of tj maxx.
00:14:06.405 --> 00:14:09.308
Would you like me to give you some money? oh yes.
00:14:09.308 --> 00:14:12.711
Before my husband checks the chase account.
00:14:12.711 --> 00:14:15.814
Everybody wants to be saved. nobody wants to submit.
00:14:16.882 --> 00:14:20.853
But christianity is not about being saved.
00:14:21.754 --> 00:14:24.990
It's about being saved after you. oh, come on.
00:14:24.990 --> 00:14:28.794
And the problem with the last 100 years
00:14:28.794 --> 00:14:30.896
Of christianity is we have confession without repentance.
00:14:30.896 --> 00:14:34.900
We have people claiming to be saved but never submitted.
00:14:34.900 --> 00:14:38.537
We gave them a card because they were a first time guest,
00:14:38.537 --> 00:14:41.874
But we never gave them an opportunity
00:14:41.874 --> 00:14:43.809
To turn from their wicked ways and to change how they act.
00:14:43.809 --> 00:14:47.346
And we excuse their behavior
00:14:47.346 --> 00:14:49.315
Because the people in the pulpits are doing the
00:14:49.315 --> 00:14:51.583
Same thing in private.
00:14:51.583 --> 00:14:56.655
So there's two crowds in this sermon, the crown
00:14:57.589 --> 00:15:01.460
With the palm branches.
00:15:01.460 --> 00:15:03.295
But there's another crowd with the palm branches.
00:15:03.295 --> 00:15:05.965
And matter of fact, if you're one that submits to him
00:15:07.032 --> 00:15:09.902
As lord, you are in the bible.
00:15:09.902 --> 00:15:12.204
Turn to your neighbor and tell him i'm in the bible.
00:15:12.204 --> 00:15:14.807
Come on, tell him i'm judas. no, i'm just kidding.
00:15:15.841 --> 00:15:17.977
I'm just kidding. go to revelation chapter seven.
00:15:17.977 --> 00:15:22.881
Somebody almost said it on accident.
00:15:23.682 --> 00:15:26.418
Come on, go to revelation chapter seven.
00:15:27.252 --> 00:15:30.155
There's another group now. there's another group now.
00:15:30.155 --> 00:15:33.292
And they also have palm branches.
00:15:33.292 --> 00:15:34.927
And i believe that many people watching right now online,
00:15:34.927 --> 00:15:38.297
Many people at our physical campuses, you're in the bible
00:15:38.297 --> 00:15:41.800
Because this is a picture of the future.
00:15:41.800 --> 00:15:45.070
And whenever the devil reminds you of your past,
00:15:45.070 --> 00:15:48.607
Remind him of your future.
00:15:48.607 --> 00:15:50.542
And i'm about to show you your future.
00:15:50.542 --> 00:15:52.778
And i believe that when john was in that cave in patmos,
00:15:52.778 --> 00:15:56.315
And he came up under the revelation of the holy spirit
00:15:56.315 --> 00:15:59.418
And he began to see future events.
00:15:59.418 --> 00:16:01.353
And when john began to dictate
00:16:01.353 --> 00:16:03.422
And write down what the holy spirit was giving him,
00:16:03.422 --> 00:16:05.624
I believe when he looked out at the multitudes
00:16:05.624 --> 00:16:07.793
With palm branches in this picture,
00:16:07.793 --> 00:16:09.828
I believe he saw you in that crowd.
00:16:09.828 --> 00:16:12.531
If you're a true believer, are you ready?
00:16:12.531 --> 00:16:15.167
Okay, look at, look at revelation chapter seven.
00:16:16.135 --> 00:16:19.438
Let's start at verse nine and behold.
00:16:19.438 --> 00:16:23.909
And lo, a great multitude, which no man could number
00:16:23.909 --> 00:16:28.647
Of all nations and kindreds and peoples
00:16:28.647 --> 00:16:31.517
And tongues that stood before the throne and
00:16:31.517 --> 00:16:34.453
Before the lamb clothed with white robes
00:16:34.453 --> 00:16:37.423
And palms in their hands
00:16:37.423 --> 00:16:39.391
And cried with a loud voice saying, salvation to our god,
00:16:39.391 --> 00:16:44.763
Which sit at the, upon the throne and unto the lamb.
00:16:45.798 --> 00:16:47.900
And all the angels stood round about the throne
00:16:47.900 --> 00:16:51.003
And about the elders in the four beasts and fell
00:16:51.003 --> 00:16:54.106
Before the throne on their faces
00:16:54.106 --> 00:16:56.041
And worship god saying, amen.
00:16:56.041 --> 00:16:58.644
Blessing and glory and wisdom and power,
00:16:58.644 --> 00:17:02.448
And might be unto our god forever and ever.
00:17:02.448 --> 00:17:06.218
Somebody shout. amen. okay, now watch.
00:17:06.218 --> 00:17:11.623
They both have palm branches.
00:17:12.257 --> 00:17:15.861
One group is saying, give me, give me, give me.
00:17:15.861 --> 00:17:19.565
The other group is saying, i laid down my life for the lamb
00:17:19.565 --> 00:17:23.335
Because he first laid his life down for me.
00:17:23.335 --> 00:17:26.472
One group is saying, i want transaction.
00:17:26.472 --> 00:17:29.475
The other group is saying, i'm here
00:17:29.475 --> 00:17:31.276
Because of transformation.
00:17:31.276 --> 00:17:33.445
One group is saying, i wanna control god.
00:17:33.445 --> 00:17:36.515
The other group is saying, god gave me the spirit
00:17:36.515 --> 00:17:39.618
Of self-control.
00:17:39.618 --> 00:17:41.353
One group says, i'm sunday morning only the other group says
00:17:41.353 --> 00:17:45.023
Seven days a week, 24 hours.
00:17:45.023 --> 00:17:47.993
Praise is gonna perpetually be on my lips.
00:17:47.993 --> 00:17:51.130
The other one says, i pray when i'm in trouble.
00:17:51.130 --> 00:17:53.765
The other one says, the devil's in trouble when i pray.
00:17:53.765 --> 00:17:56.902
Come on, i'm gonna help somebody today.
00:17:56.902 --> 00:17:59.238
One says, i only go
00:17:59.238 --> 00:18:00.772
To the church when they play the songs i want to hear.
00:18:00.772 --> 00:18:03.675
The other one says, i make a own my own song.
00:18:03.675 --> 00:18:06.812
I wake up in the morning and i declare the word of god.
00:18:06.812 --> 00:18:10.249
Another one says, i serve on a team so that i have a sense
00:18:10.249 --> 00:18:13.585
Of significance and they can see how anointed i am.
00:18:13.585 --> 00:18:16.855
The other one says, i laid my gift down before the lord.
00:18:16.855 --> 00:18:20.559
And i said, if they never ask me to do nothing,
00:18:20.559 --> 00:18:23.295
I'm gonna be a door greeter at the front door
00:18:23.295 --> 00:18:25.931
Of the house of god.
00:18:25.931 --> 00:18:27.399
'cause i'm not doing this for me. i'm in it for him.
00:18:27.399 --> 00:18:31.937
Come on. two different groups. one is ambition.
00:18:32.871 --> 00:18:38.076
That becomes transactional
00:18:38.644 --> 00:18:40.445
And you'll make a profit into a prostitute.
00:18:40.445 --> 00:18:43.448
The other one is faith that becomes transformational.
00:18:43.448 --> 00:18:47.452
That says, i don't need a word.
00:18:47.452 --> 00:18:49.087
'cause you gave me 66 canonized books in the bible.
00:18:49.087 --> 00:18:53.258
I need discipline. i don't need a word.
00:18:53.258 --> 00:18:55.894
I need to read one of the books my pastor wrote
00:18:55.894 --> 00:18:58.931
And stop prostituting people online.
00:18:58.931 --> 00:19:01.667
But the other one says, me, me, me.
00:19:01.667 --> 00:19:04.303
The other one says, we, we, we, the other one says,
00:19:04.303 --> 00:19:08.473
From my glory, this one says, god,
00:19:08.473 --> 00:19:11.343
If they don't ever remember my name,
00:19:11.343 --> 00:19:13.845
I don't wanna be a celebrity.
00:19:13.845 --> 00:19:15.647
I wanna be submitted.
00:19:15.647 --> 00:19:22.854
Are y'all with me now? yes,
00:19:23.455 --> 00:19:24.890
Because on sunday morning everybody's singing
00:19:25.857 --> 00:19:29.228
The same songs.
00:19:29.228 --> 00:19:30.762
But the lord knows the difference between the fig tree
00:19:30.762 --> 00:19:33.332
That has leaves and the fig tree that has fruit.
00:19:33.332 --> 00:19:37.169
God knows the reason why you're doing it.
00:19:38.036 --> 00:19:40.973
Listen, i believe
00:19:41.406 --> 00:19:43.175
That my primary mission in life is to preach.
00:19:43.175 --> 00:19:47.479
It's the gift that god gave me first when i was
00:19:47.479 --> 00:19:50.315
15 years old.
00:19:50.315 --> 00:19:51.817
And god has confirmed that over and over
00:19:51.817 --> 00:19:54.753
And over again right now, daystar, tbn, god tv,
00:19:54.753 --> 00:19:59.258
2 million subscribers.
00:19:59.258 --> 00:20:00.592
People ask me, what's the secret?
00:20:00.592 --> 00:20:02.361
I'll tell you the secret place.
00:20:02.361 --> 00:20:04.796
The secret is the secret place when you get your downloads
00:20:05.964 --> 00:20:09.301
From chat gpt, that's transactional.
00:20:09.301 --> 00:20:12.504
But when you get it from the secret place,
00:20:12.504 --> 00:20:14.339
It's transformational.
00:20:14.339 --> 00:20:15.907
See, the lord knows, not everything
00:20:15.907 --> 00:20:17.476
That sounds good is anointed.
00:20:17.476 --> 00:20:19.378
Come on somebody. so understand.
00:20:19.378 --> 00:20:22.347
I carry inside of me, fire in my bones.
00:20:22.347 --> 00:20:25.250
I don't preach to be seen.
00:20:25.250 --> 00:20:27.619
I would love to meet you in person as we retrace the steps
00:20:27.619 --> 00:20:32.357
Of the apostle paul on an unforgettable journey
00:20:32.357 --> 00:20:35.494
Through greece and turkey.
00:20:35.494 --> 00:20:37.362
It's gonna be a five star experience
00:20:37.362 --> 00:20:39.731
With not only incredible hotels, but also a cruise.
00:20:39.731 --> 00:20:43.468
And we're gonna go to the very places
00:20:43.468 --> 00:20:45.470
That scripture was written, including patmos, where the book
00:20:45.470 --> 00:20:49.074
Of revelation was written by john.
00:20:49.074 --> 00:20:51.576
I cannot wait to meet you in person, but seats are limited,
00:20:51.576 --> 00:20:55.414
Although they're still available.
00:20:55.414 --> 00:20:57.316
So you have to make the decision now.
00:20:57.316 --> 00:20:59.785
The information's here on the screen.
00:20:59.785 --> 00:21:01.753
Go ahead and take advantage of an experience
00:21:01.753 --> 00:21:04.623
That will last a lifetime.
00:21:04.623 --> 00:21:06.491
I wanna pray with you at these locations
00:21:06.491 --> 00:21:08.927
As we invite the presence of the holy spirit.
00:21:08.927 --> 00:21:11.630
I want to teach you exactly what was happening in culture
00:21:11.630 --> 00:21:15.000
As the scriptures were written.
00:21:15.000 --> 00:21:16.802
I wanna have some incredible meals together with you.
00:21:16.802 --> 00:21:20.072
It's going to be amazing.
00:21:20.072 --> 00:21:22.207
But i need you to make that decision now
00:21:22.207 --> 00:21:24.209
Before all of the seats are gone.
00:21:24.209 --> 00:21:27.012
It's gonna be amazing, and i can't wait to meet you.
00:21:27.012 --> 00:21:30.182
Go ahead, make that decision to retrace the steps
00:21:30.182 --> 00:21:33.985
Of the apostle paul with mike signorelli on tour.
00:21:33.985 --> 00:21:37.589
Can't wait to see you there.
00:21:37.589 --> 00:21:43.895
But let me tell you, there was a season
00:21:44.730 --> 00:21:46.698
Where the lord asked me, mike, i see you
00:21:46.698 --> 00:21:49.501
With your palm branch in your hand,
00:21:49.501 --> 00:21:51.269
But i'm not entirely sure which crowd you belong to.
00:21:51.269 --> 00:21:54.539
Are you a matthew chapter 21 worshiper,
00:21:54.539 --> 00:21:57.376
Or are you a revelation?
00:21:57.376 --> 00:21:58.710
Chapter seven, worshiper. i, i. i. i'm, i'm.
00:21:58.710 --> 00:22:01.580
Oh, come on now somebody.
00:22:01.580 --> 00:22:03.048
Because sometimes you can get so hurt by the church.
00:22:03.048 --> 00:22:05.684
You can take so many seasons of being overlooked
00:22:05.684 --> 00:22:08.387
And misunderstood and talked about that,
00:22:08.387 --> 00:22:10.355
That something will rise up inside of you
00:22:10.355 --> 00:22:12.424
And you'll begin to take control over a situation
00:22:12.424 --> 00:22:15.427
And say, well, if they aren't, if they aren't gonna make it
00:22:15.427 --> 00:22:17.496
Happen, i'll make it happen.
00:22:17.496 --> 00:22:19.598
And i'll tell you what, there's a man named abraham
00:22:20.632 --> 00:22:23.702
Who did the same thing.
00:22:23.702 --> 00:22:25.237
He said, well, i got a promise on my life
00:22:25.237 --> 00:22:27.439
That i was gonna be a father of many nations.
00:22:27.439 --> 00:22:29.975
And this is not happening with my wife sarah.
00:22:29.975 --> 00:22:32.744
So you know what? i'm gonna concoct a plan
00:22:32.744 --> 00:22:34.780
To make it happen in my own power.
00:22:34.780 --> 00:22:36.882
So what he begins to do is he sleeps with another woman.
00:22:36.882 --> 00:22:40.051
That woman does bear a child.
00:22:40.051 --> 00:22:41.920
In the initial phases, it would seem
00:22:41.920 --> 00:22:44.189
As if it worked his own self-willed plan,
00:22:44.189 --> 00:22:48.026
His transactional ambition.
00:22:48.026 --> 00:22:50.695
I want to be the father of many nations.
00:22:50.695 --> 00:22:52.831
And by the way, i'm doing this for god.
00:22:52.831 --> 00:22:54.766
'cause god told me to, oh, come on.
00:22:54.766 --> 00:22:58.603
And then it looks like it's working.
00:22:59.371 --> 00:23:01.373
But the child, that was the seed
00:23:01.373 --> 00:23:04.209
Of selfish ambition becomes the father
00:23:04.209 --> 00:23:07.679
Of a false nation called islam.
00:23:07.679 --> 00:23:10.749
Look at, read your history.
00:23:11.349 --> 00:23:13.718
So abraham's decision
00:23:14.219 --> 00:23:16.621
To take control over his own situation ends up actually
00:23:16.621 --> 00:23:21.393
Creating a demonic nation.
00:23:21.393 --> 00:23:23.662
It's a counterfeit promise of what god had for him.
00:23:24.663 --> 00:23:27.933
But then all of a sudden he starts learning, come on,
00:23:27.933 --> 00:23:30.435
Somebody say, i'm learning, i'm learning.
00:23:30.435 --> 00:23:32.504
Come on. this is what happened to me.
00:23:32.504 --> 00:23:34.439
I end up going back to indiana
00:23:34.439 --> 00:23:36.708
And i ended up serving in a position
00:23:36.708 --> 00:23:40.178
Where i was the executive pastor
00:23:40.178 --> 00:23:42.848
And my role was to be invisible.
00:23:42.848 --> 00:23:45.951
And for three years i didn't preach
00:23:45.951 --> 00:23:48.487
With this fire shut up in my bones for three years.
00:23:48.487 --> 00:23:51.890
Every time i would get invited
00:23:51.890 --> 00:23:53.558
To preach at a major conference overseas,
00:23:53.558 --> 00:23:56.294
The pastor would say, the answer's no, we need you here.
00:23:56.294 --> 00:24:00.065
And i took a no for three years from my pastor.
00:24:00.065 --> 00:24:02.934
And ultimately, how many of you know
00:24:02.934 --> 00:24:04.469
Through authority from god?
00:24:04.469 --> 00:24:06.605
And i said, god, why would you give me a
00:24:07.472 --> 00:24:09.241
Gift and not use it?
00:24:09.241 --> 00:24:10.775
I didn't understand how to go from matthew 21, christian
00:24:11.910 --> 00:24:15.680
To revelation seven, christian.
00:24:15.680 --> 00:24:17.749
I made an ishmael instead of an isaac.
00:24:18.550 --> 00:24:21.119
See this what i'm saying? you'll grow an audience online,
00:24:22.254 --> 00:24:24.723
But it'll be islam, not christianity.
00:24:24.723 --> 00:24:27.392
You'll grow. oh, come on, i'm speaking.
00:24:27.392 --> 00:24:28.793
You'll grow a business
00:24:28.793 --> 00:24:30.061
And it'll look like it's blessed
00:24:30.061 --> 00:24:31.630
Until it goes from exploding to imploding.
00:24:31.630 --> 00:24:34.933
I see it all the time.
00:24:34.933 --> 00:24:36.434
So all of a sudden he says, i'm learning.
00:24:36.434 --> 00:24:40.372
And he says, sarah,
00:24:40.372 --> 00:24:42.774
And he says, i'm gonna commit
00:24:43.408 --> 00:24:45.744
To god's plan even if it doesn't make sense,
00:24:45.744 --> 00:24:49.347
Because his ways are higher than my ways,
00:24:49.347 --> 00:24:52.183
And his thoughts are higher than my thoughts.
00:24:52.183 --> 00:24:54.519
And i'm gonna, i'm finally gonna submit.
00:24:54.519 --> 00:24:56.688
Some of you are at church today
00:24:56.688 --> 00:24:58.590
Because you made up your mind.
00:24:58.590 --> 00:25:00.025
I'm finally gonna submit.
00:25:00.025 --> 00:25:01.660
Some of you are hearing my voice right now, not
00:25:01.660 --> 00:25:03.995
Because you want to hear a sermon, but
00:25:03.995 --> 00:25:05.764
Because something in your spirit is saying it's time
00:25:05.764 --> 00:25:08.033
To submit to god's plan.
00:25:08.033 --> 00:25:09.534
It's time to stop being rebellious and transactional,
00:25:09.534 --> 00:25:12.671
And it's time to just fully surrender.
00:25:12.671 --> 00:25:15.240
Hey, i need your help.
00:25:15.240 --> 00:25:16.508
You know, here in new york city,
00:25:16.508 --> 00:25:17.876
I am reaching young people for christ.
00:25:17.876 --> 00:25:20.545
And we are seeing them from every different background.
00:25:20.545 --> 00:25:23.648
Just accept jesus. i mean, it's truly like a movement.
00:25:23.648 --> 00:25:27.052
We're actually taking nightclubs
00:25:27.052 --> 00:25:29.020
And turning them into churches on sunday mornings.
00:25:29.020 --> 00:25:31.990
And it is a very hard thing.
00:25:31.990 --> 00:25:34.359
But the reason why i say that is
00:25:34.359 --> 00:25:35.794
Because these are young people like your grandchildren
00:25:35.794 --> 00:25:39.030
And you know, like your nieces and nephews,
00:25:39.030 --> 00:25:41.499
And we're leading them to christ.
00:25:41.499 --> 00:25:42.968
But i, here's why i need your help.
00:25:42.968 --> 00:25:44.536
First of all, pray for us.
00:25:44.536 --> 00:25:46.271
And secondly, if you would consider give,
00:25:46.271 --> 00:25:49.274
Giving a gift to the ministry.
00:25:49.274 --> 00:25:51.543
If you call the number on the screen right now,
00:25:51.543 --> 00:25:53.678
We have prayer team members that'll pray with you,
00:25:53.678 --> 00:25:56.147
But just consider helping us on this mission.
00:25:56.147 --> 00:25:59.184
But i want to tell you one of the reasons why you might feel
00:25:59.184 --> 00:26:01.886
So connected to my preaching is
00:26:01.886 --> 00:26:04.055
Because you're not retired, you're refire
00:26:04.055 --> 00:26:06.558
And god is reigniting you
00:26:06.558 --> 00:26:08.460
And he's actually causing you to be on fire again
00:26:08.460 --> 00:26:11.730
And return to your first love.
00:26:11.730 --> 00:26:13.898
And so help us as we're on this mission.
00:26:13.898 --> 00:26:16.501
I never thought that out of new york city,
00:26:16.501 --> 00:26:18.937
I would be bringing a television show all around the world.
00:26:18.937 --> 00:26:22.474
And it's been a tremendous sacrifice for us.
00:26:22.474 --> 00:26:25.276
But i just believe that as we come together all
00:26:25.276 --> 00:26:28.013
Around the world right now, you can help us.
00:26:28.013 --> 00:26:30.615
And if you sow into young people,
00:26:30.615 --> 00:26:33.418
Just like your grandchildren, just like your nieces
00:26:33.418 --> 00:26:35.854
And nephews, i believe
00:26:35.854 --> 00:26:37.222
That you'll reap a harvest in your own family.
00:26:37.222 --> 00:26:39.991
So the information's on the screen right now.
00:26:39.991 --> 00:26:41.826
You can scan the qr code and you can sow a seed.
00:26:41.826 --> 00:26:45.463
You can support us.
00:26:45.463 --> 00:26:47.832
And also you can call in now and
00:26:47.832 --> 00:26:50.335
And meet with our team as well.
00:26:50.335 --> 00:26:52.137
So thank you so much for being a part of the broadcast
00:26:52.137 --> 00:26:54.973
And being a partner for our ministry to help,
00:26:54.973 --> 00:26:57.676
Not just in new york city, but around the world.
00:26:57.676 --> 00:27:00.545
- jesus said in matthew seven, narrow is the gate
00:27:01.546 --> 00:27:05.016
And difficult is the way that leads to life.
00:27:05.016 --> 00:27:08.219
In a world that celebrates compromise, god calls us
00:27:08.219 --> 00:27:11.690
To live set apart, to walk the narrow way with courage,
00:27:11.690 --> 00:27:16.361
Conviction, and faith.
