| Mike Signorelli - Rest After the Battle | June 18, 2026

- i really believe that where some of us have been in error
00:00:08.767 --> 00:00:11.804
Is we have not gathered together,
00:00:11.804 --> 00:00:14.506
And we have such an emphasis on private prayer time
00:00:14.506 --> 00:00:17.876
That we need an emphasis on corporate prayer time.
00:00:17.876 --> 00:00:21.280
We have such an emphasis on individual devotion,
00:00:21.280 --> 00:00:24.917
But in the book of acts, you see them gathering together,
00:00:24.917 --> 00:00:28.520
Being devoted in the word together.
00:00:28.520 --> 00:00:31.223
Could it be that you got the entire equation right except
00:00:31.223 --> 00:00:35.094
For the one thing that mattered the most,
00:00:35.094 --> 00:00:37.229
And it's the thing that violates your introversion the most.
00:00:37.229 --> 00:00:40.432
And it's all, there's one baptism,
00:00:40.432 --> 00:00:43.735
But there's many fillings.
00:00:43.735 --> 00:00:45.671
This is the emphasis. how many times do you eat?
00:00:46.672 --> 00:00:49.408
Maybe 2, 3, 4 times in a day. you wake up, you do it again.
00:00:49.408 --> 00:00:53.178
I really believe that god is calling us to a place
00:00:53.178 --> 00:00:55.881
To not just break chains or break curses,
00:00:55.881 --> 00:00:58.617
But to break bread.
00:00:58.617 --> 00:01:00.486
Hey, this is mike signorelli with the narrow way,
00:01:00.486 --> 00:01:03.188
And i've got some crazy testimonies to tell you.
00:01:03.188 --> 00:01:05.424
So first of all, my team just let me know
00:01:05.424 --> 00:01:07.659
That we had people reaching out saying that they decided not
00:01:07.659 --> 00:01:10.863
To end their life as a result of the message.
00:01:10.863 --> 00:01:13.999
They heard the sermon and they made a decision. also.
00:01:13.999 --> 00:01:18.103
This is crazy, but i know you believe it.
00:01:18.103 --> 00:01:20.305
God is still a supernatural god who answers prayers.
00:01:20.305 --> 00:01:24.276
And we have prayer team members that have been praying
00:01:24.276 --> 00:01:26.712
For people on the phone lines,
00:01:26.712 --> 00:01:28.280
And we've gotten reports of medically verifiable miracles.
00:01:28.280 --> 00:01:31.550
We've been encouraging people go back to the doctor,
00:01:31.550 --> 00:01:33.819
Get the results like we believe.
00:01:33.819 --> 00:01:35.754
Yes, we believe in medicine,
00:01:35.754 --> 00:01:37.489
But also we believe that it will be confirmed what god did.
00:01:37.489 --> 00:01:41.426
And so those reports are coming in,
00:01:41.426 --> 00:01:43.462
But i wanted to sincerely thank each and every one of you.
00:01:43.462 --> 00:01:45.964
It's actually because of your support that we're able
00:01:45.964 --> 00:01:48.967
To get these messages out.
00:01:48.967 --> 00:01:50.636
So because you're a partner, we pray for you.
00:01:50.636 --> 00:01:53.839
I mean, as a matter of fact, we wanna pray for you today,
00:01:53.839 --> 00:01:57.376
But specifically, continue your support
00:01:57.376 --> 00:02:00.445
Because i believe that we've only just begun.
00:02:00.445 --> 00:02:03.048
How many of you believe
00:02:03.048 --> 00:02:04.349
That we're gonna see god do even greater things
00:02:04.349 --> 00:02:06.718
As we continue with the narrow way?
00:02:06.718 --> 00:02:09.321
So let's jump into this week's message.
00:02:09.321 --> 00:02:11.924
This path is already narrow
00:02:12.524 --> 00:02:14.560
And we will forge forward, making no excuse
00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:17.496
For why we can live uncompromised in this generation.
00:02:17.496 --> 00:02:21.033
Lock in, gimme a hundred people who will walk
00:02:21.033 --> 00:02:24.870
That narrow road
00:02:24.870 --> 00:02:26.238
And say, i may have some things in my family, but
00:02:26.238 --> 00:02:33.445
All of these were with one accor
00:02:34.079 --> 00:02:35.981
They were devoting themselves to prayer together
00:02:35.981 --> 00:02:38.750
With the women of mary and jesus and his brothers.
00:02:38.750 --> 00:02:40.819
Acts chapter two, verse one.
00:02:40.819 --> 00:02:42.087
So you turn the page, it says this, when the day
00:02:42.087 --> 00:02:45.190
Of pentecost arrived, they were all together in
00:02:45.190 --> 00:02:50.562
One place.
00:02:50.862 --> 00:02:52.264
Think about this then. acts chapter two, verse four.
00:02:52.264 --> 00:02:55.500
And they were all filled with the holy spirit
00:02:55.500 --> 00:02:58.737
And began to speak in other tongues
00:02:58.737 --> 00:03:01.073
As the spirit gave them utterance.
00:03:01.073 --> 00:03:04.876
The holy spirit will give you abilities
00:03:04.876 --> 00:03:07.946
That supersede your natural abilities.
00:03:07.946 --> 00:03:11.016
Your iq is your destiny. does not depend on your iq.
00:03:11.016 --> 00:03:15.887
Your destiny does not depend on your bank account
00:03:15.887 --> 00:03:18.657
Status right now.
00:03:18.657 --> 00:03:19.925
But the holy spirit gave utterance
00:03:19.925 --> 00:03:22.194
For a language their natural mind didn't know.
00:03:22.194 --> 00:03:24.863
And i believe the holy spirit will give you access
00:03:24.863 --> 00:03:28.100
For information, will give you access.
00:03:28.100 --> 00:03:30.802
He'll open up doors,
00:03:30.802 --> 00:03:32.304
And by the spirit, you'll do things that are impossible
00:03:32.304 --> 00:03:34.906
By the natural realm.
00:03:34.906 --> 00:03:36.275
Do you believe that? but but were they praying me?
00:03:36.275 --> 00:03:41.246
I or were they praying? we are.
00:03:41.880 --> 00:03:44.750
See, they didn't go into a private prayer closet
00:03:45.717 --> 00:03:49.221
And then be filled with the spirit.
00:03:49.221 --> 00:03:51.623
They gathered together and were filled together. okay?
00:03:51.623 --> 00:03:56.194
I don't know if you guys know this,
00:03:56.194 --> 00:03:57.596
But i'm the president of a very prestigious club.
00:03:57.596 --> 00:04:01.099
And this club is called the introverts of america.
00:04:01.099 --> 00:04:03.802
And the reason why is
00:04:03.802 --> 00:04:05.671
Because when i make plans with people,
00:04:05.671 --> 00:04:09.107
I'll just tell you straight up, i wake up the next day
00:04:09.107 --> 00:04:12.577
And i'm, and i'm like, i should cancel those plans.
00:04:12.577 --> 00:04:15.647
Then like i go, no, mike, you just need coffee.
00:04:16.648 --> 00:04:19.718
And then i get done with my coffee,
00:04:19.718 --> 00:04:21.320
And then something on the inside says that
00:04:21.320 --> 00:04:23.588
Still wasn't enough.
00:04:23.588 --> 00:04:26.258
Cancel those plans.
00:04:26.725 --> 00:04:28.260
And then throughout the day, i start panicking a little.
00:04:28.260 --> 00:04:31.029
Cancel those plans. you gotta cancel those plans.
00:04:31.029 --> 00:04:33.732
And then all of a sudden, an hour
00:04:33.732 --> 00:04:35.100
Before the event cancel, you know, what are you do?
00:04:35.100 --> 00:04:37.069
Are you really gonna do this? you don't need more friends.
00:04:37.069 --> 00:04:40.305
You, you've got plenty of friends.
00:04:40.305 --> 00:04:41.807
Your phone is you, you can scroll, you, you know, you,
00:04:41.807 --> 00:04:44.743
It's like i begin to pan.
00:04:44.743 --> 00:04:46.345
Am i the only one? oh man. oh no.
00:04:46.345 --> 00:04:49.948
So you also are part of this club. i'm the president.
00:04:50.982 --> 00:04:53.118
We're all members.
00:04:53.118 --> 00:04:54.786
And so you think to yourself, what am i doing? i feel sick.
00:04:54.786 --> 00:04:57.989
That's right. an ache, a pain. that's right.
00:04:57.989 --> 00:05:03.295
What are they gonna say? no to? a sickness.
00:05:04.196 --> 00:05:07.999
Oh, here's, here's a new york problem.
00:05:08.834 --> 00:05:11.269
I'm looking at traffic.
00:05:11.269 --> 00:05:13.004
I'm gonna be so late, i might not even make it. come on.
00:05:13.004 --> 00:05:17.743
Then all of a sudden you say, flesh, shut up flesh.
00:05:18.744 --> 00:05:22.781
I know i need the fellowship of believers.
00:05:22.781 --> 00:05:25.717
I know i need spirit.
00:05:25.717 --> 00:05:26.985
The the thing that's in me
00:05:26.985 --> 00:05:28.186
That's prophetic is also the thing
00:05:28.186 --> 00:05:30.455
That makes me wanna sin under the tree.
00:05:30.455 --> 00:05:32.357
Like elijah and say, i'm the only one left.
00:05:32.357 --> 00:05:35.327
Now they're trying to kill me.
00:05:35.327 --> 00:05:36.695
And god had to respond to the prophet
00:05:36.695 --> 00:05:38.630
And say, you're actually lying.
00:05:38.630 --> 00:05:40.499
There's many other prophets,
00:05:40.499 --> 00:05:42.067
And you're not the only one left.
00:05:42.067 --> 00:05:44.169
So, but that same thing in you
00:05:44.169 --> 00:05:45.837
That makes you prophetic will also make you emo.
00:05:45.837 --> 00:05:50.242
Why? because prophecy exists within the realm
00:05:51.176 --> 00:05:55.180
Of your imagination.
00:05:55.180 --> 00:05:57.115
Because the lord gives you dreams, he gives you visions,
00:05:57.115 --> 00:05:59.918
He shows you things.
00:05:59.918 --> 00:06:01.219
And so satan says, well, let me just distort
00:06:01.219 --> 00:06:03.688
And pervert the place of imagination.
00:06:03.688 --> 00:06:06.024
Let me show them getting rejected.
00:06:06.024 --> 00:06:08.193
Let me show it them it not working out. let me show them.
00:06:08.193 --> 00:06:11.830
Oh, come on. and then you begin to use your mind
00:06:11.830 --> 00:06:15.066
And you begin in a way that
00:06:15.066 --> 00:06:16.668
That actually steers the direction of your life.
00:06:16.668 --> 00:06:20.539
See, when david looked at the giant, it was a realm
00:06:20.539 --> 00:06:23.308
Of the imagination that said, i see this thing dropping
00:06:23.308 --> 00:06:27.345
So it can, when, when, when joshua
00:06:27.345 --> 00:06:29.648
And caleb went to the promised land, within the realm
00:06:29.648 --> 00:06:32.184
Of their imagination, they saw them conquering the giants
00:06:32.184 --> 00:06:35.387
And they saw them inhabiting the land,
00:06:35.387 --> 00:06:37.456
But 10 other spies saw themselves dying.
00:06:37.456 --> 00:06:40.859
And so you'll have what you imagine
00:06:40.859 --> 00:06:43.228
Because what you imagine will eventually be what you say.
00:06:43.228 --> 00:06:46.264
And you always eat the fruit of your words.
00:06:46.264 --> 00:06:48.767
And i was like, we, we need to, we need
00:06:49.634 --> 00:06:50.802
To bring back the days when we forced ourselves to do
00:06:50.802 --> 00:06:54.239
What we knew was right,
00:06:54.239 --> 00:06:56.007
Because only a generation
00:06:56.007 --> 00:06:57.576
Of soft parenting would produce soft people.
00:06:57.576 --> 00:07:01.012
But my point is, i come from a generation
00:07:01.880 --> 00:07:03.682
Where i wasn't asked, i was told,
00:07:03.682 --> 00:07:07.419
And i didn't wanna go to church,
00:07:07.419 --> 00:07:09.488
But i had a mother who said, i am a single mother
00:07:09.488 --> 00:07:13.158
And we are gonna go to church to learn the ways of god.
00:07:13.158 --> 00:07:16.328
And you're gonna wake up and you're gonna go to church.
00:07:16.328 --> 00:07:18.797
And repeatedly forcing me
00:07:18.797 --> 00:07:20.432
To church didn't cause me to rebel.
00:07:20.432 --> 00:07:22.400
It caused me to become a pastor
00:07:22.400 --> 00:07:25.070
Because i got, people are like,
00:07:25.070 --> 00:07:26.238
I can't force my kid to go to church.
00:07:26.238 --> 00:07:28.240
I don't want them to rebel.
00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:29.941
If they're not going to church
00:07:29.941 --> 00:07:32.043
And they're under your roof, they are already rebelling.
00:07:32.043 --> 00:07:35.313
What are you worrying about? i don't wanna push them.
00:07:35.313 --> 00:07:38.083
If they're not participating, they're already against you.
00:07:38.083 --> 00:07:42.320
But there's something about ati, a child,
00:07:42.320 --> 00:07:44.389
Train a child in the way
00:07:44.389 --> 00:07:47.092
That they should go in righteous ways.
00:07:47.092 --> 00:07:49.794
Then when they're older, they will not depart from it.
00:07:49.794 --> 00:07:52.864
But the problem is we treat our kids like we treat our own
00:07:52.864 --> 00:07:56.101
Soul, and we make a consensus instead of making a decision.
00:07:56.101 --> 00:08:00.772
And sometimes we have to say, no,
00:08:00.772 --> 00:08:02.574
I don't care if i'm introverted.
00:08:02.574 --> 00:08:04.109
The word said that i need to break bread.
00:08:04.109 --> 00:08:07.078
The word said, i need to come together.
00:08:07.078 --> 00:08:09.314
The word said, i need this and i'm gonna do it.
00:08:09.314 --> 00:08:11.283
And what happens for me is i get 15 minutes into the hangout
00:08:11.283 --> 00:08:14.920
And all of a sudden i'm doing my, my real laugh.
00:08:14.920 --> 00:08:17.355
That's like, like that, you know?
00:08:17.355 --> 00:08:19.357
And i'm like, and i'm like, i'm so glad
00:08:19.357 --> 00:08:24.029
That i went to this hangout.
00:08:24.029 --> 00:08:25.697
And what was i thinking?
00:08:25.697 --> 00:08:27.098
And by the way, did we just become best friends?
00:08:27.098 --> 00:08:30.135
Does anybody know what i'm talking about?
00:08:30.135 --> 00:08:32.237
Here's the problem.
00:08:32.237 --> 00:08:34.005
Let's talk about your central nervous system
00:08:34.005 --> 00:08:35.874
Before i get back into scriptures.
00:08:35.874 --> 00:08:38.276
Because when you've been traumatized,
00:08:39.110 --> 00:08:41.479
Trauma produces triggers
00:08:41.479 --> 00:08:43.415
And triggers produce decisions and results.
00:08:43.415 --> 00:08:46.551
So there's fight or flight,
00:08:46.551 --> 00:08:48.253
And then there's rest and digest.
00:08:48.253 --> 00:08:50.455
As a matter of fact, the more i've been going on this
00:08:50.455 --> 00:08:52.424
Journey of regulating my central nervous system,
00:08:52.424 --> 00:08:54.526
I started salivating a lot.
00:08:54.526 --> 00:08:56.561
So i asked my health coach, why am,
00:08:56.561 --> 00:08:58.663
Why am i borderline drooling?
00:08:58.663 --> 00:09:00.298
And he said, oh, that's awesome. and i said, why?
00:09:00.298 --> 00:09:03.668
He goes, you're getting your rest and digest to turn on,
00:09:03.668 --> 00:09:07.706
And you have been in spite of flight for so long
00:09:07.706 --> 00:09:10.775
That your body, you don't even know what normal feels like
00:09:10.775 --> 00:09:14.245
To rest and digest.
00:09:14.245 --> 00:09:16.181
And so the reason why this is important,
00:09:17.048 --> 00:09:19.250
Most churches won't preach this,
00:09:19.250 --> 00:09:21.186
Is we get really good at breaking chains, breaking curses,
00:09:21.186 --> 00:09:25.557
And breaking demons, but we never learn how to break bread.
00:09:25.557 --> 00:09:30.161
And you must learn both.
00:09:30.662 --> 00:09:32.430
It's fighting and then feasting.
00:09:33.064 --> 00:09:36.635
Feasting and then fighting.
00:09:36.635 --> 00:09:38.637
And what happens is, if you always feast
00:09:38.637 --> 00:09:40.739
And never fight, you become lethargic and selfish
00:09:40.739 --> 00:09:43.541
And spiritually, you know, passive.
00:09:43.541 --> 00:09:46.144
But if you always fight
00:09:46.144 --> 00:09:47.712
And never feast, ironically, your enemy won't destroy you.
00:09:47.712 --> 00:09:50.749
You'll destroy yourself. are y'all with me?
00:09:50.749 --> 00:09:55.086
Like you need to be in rest and digest,
00:09:55.086 --> 00:09:58.256
But you also need to be in fight or flight.
00:09:58.256 --> 00:10:00.458
Both are healthy,
00:10:00.458 --> 00:10:02.160
But one of 'em, out of context,
00:10:02.160 --> 00:10:04.663
You actually become deficient
00:10:04.663 --> 00:10:06.331
And you begin to hurt yourself.
00:10:06.331 --> 00:10:08.533
And i believe that what isn't it just like the wisdom of god
00:10:08.533 --> 00:10:12.237
That a church in new york city with sirens and violence
00:10:12.237 --> 00:10:16.775
And division would be the very place
00:10:16.775 --> 00:10:18.810
That he raises up a multi-site church that gives an example
00:10:18.810 --> 00:10:22.580
To the world of how to rest and digest
00:10:22.580 --> 00:10:26.184
And then how to fight.
00:10:26.184 --> 00:10:27.986
I see something very special happening in our midst,
00:10:27.986 --> 00:10:31.923
But you have to accept that assignment.
00:10:31.923 --> 00:10:33.558
Are you with me? yes. i'm almost done.
00:10:33.558 --> 00:10:36.628
In acts chapter two verse four,
00:10:36.628 --> 00:10:37.929
It says, and they were filled.
00:10:37.929 --> 00:10:39.364
They were all filled with the holy
00:10:39.364 --> 00:10:40.598
Spirit and begin to speak in tongues.
00:10:40.598 --> 00:10:41.833
But here's why this is important.
00:10:41.833 --> 00:10:44.235
As somebody who is raised in a pentecostal church,
00:10:44.235 --> 00:10:47.439
I only heard acts one and two.
00:10:47.439 --> 00:10:50.308
When you actually look at the pattern that's in the book
00:10:50.308 --> 00:10:54.012
Of acts, there's actually a, they go back to this place
00:10:54.012 --> 00:10:58.683
Of being refilled
00:10:58.683 --> 00:11:00.285
And there's multiple baptisms with the same group of people.
00:11:00.285 --> 00:11:04.889
So in my mind, what happens is you accept christ savior,
00:11:04.889 --> 00:11:08.326
And then you ask for the baptism of the holy spirit.
00:11:08.326 --> 00:11:10.762
You receive the gift of tongues
00:11:10.762 --> 00:11:12.363
And you begin to speak in tongues.
00:11:12.363 --> 00:11:14.032
And that's like a one-time experience.
00:11:14.032 --> 00:11:15.867
And then you exercise the gift.
00:11:15.867 --> 00:11:17.702
But it challenged me to revisit the scriptures
00:11:17.702 --> 00:11:21.239
Because pentecost, to me was a one-time event.
00:11:21.239 --> 00:11:24.642
But the baptism of the holy spirit, they,
00:11:24.642 --> 00:11:26.544
They gathered again
00:11:26.544 --> 00:11:28.279
And they would be baptized, afresh and anew.
00:11:28.279 --> 00:11:31.649
And it always happened
00:11:31.649 --> 00:11:33.151
After a fight, they would, they would go take territory
00:11:33.151 --> 00:11:36.554
And fight, then they would gather together
00:11:36.554 --> 00:11:38.757
And be baptized again, then go fight again.
00:11:38.757 --> 00:11:41.159
How many of you believe that we can come together
00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:44.295
And we can have fresh baptisms,
00:11:44.295 --> 00:11:46.564
That the lord can renew a fresh fire, a fresh wind come on,
00:11:46.564 --> 00:11:50.535
And he can pour it again?
00:11:50.535 --> 00:11:52.036
And i think about when i go to israel,
00:11:52.036 --> 00:11:54.239
Israel in jerusalem has hundreds
00:11:54.239 --> 00:11:56.407
And hundreds of these archaic mikvahs.
00:11:56.407 --> 00:11:58.843
And the mikvahs are
00:11:58.843 --> 00:12:00.145
Where the ritualistic cleansing would happen.
00:12:00.145 --> 00:12:02.447
And the jews would actually, before they went up the stairs
00:12:02.447 --> 00:12:05.583
And into the temple, they would go down into these mikvahs
00:12:05.583 --> 00:12:08.987
And they would completely submerge themselves in water
00:12:08.987 --> 00:12:11.790
And they would come up.
00:12:11.790 --> 00:12:13.525
And a lot of times in christianity, we think about baptism
00:12:13.525 --> 00:12:16.194
As a one-time thing.
00:12:16.194 --> 00:12:17.462
Oh, i was baptized.
00:12:17.462 --> 00:12:19.030
But the way of the jewish perspective was,
00:12:19.030 --> 00:12:22.801
I'm being ritually list ritualistically cleansed,
00:12:22.801 --> 00:12:25.937
And i'm gonna go into the temple again.
00:12:25.937 --> 00:12:27.872
So i think that they may have taken
00:12:27.872 --> 00:12:29.941
That perspective when they said, i'm going to,
00:12:29.941 --> 00:12:32.811
We're gonna come together again.
00:12:32.811 --> 00:12:34.679
And just like the first time the holy spirit entered
00:12:34.679 --> 00:12:37.549
With this sound as a mighty rushing wind,
00:12:37.549 --> 00:12:39.918
And then his spirit filled us, let's gather together again,
00:12:39.918 --> 00:12:43.922
And then he's gonna fill us again.
00:12:43.922 --> 00:12:45.390
And you see that just within the first six chapters
00:12:45.390 --> 00:12:48.726
Of the book of acts,
00:12:48.726 --> 00:12:50.261
Most people follow jesus without really knowing
00:12:51.196 --> 00:12:53.431
Where he went or why every place he walked was chosen.
00:12:53.431 --> 00:12:57.969
Every confrontation was intentional,
00:12:57.969 --> 00:13:00.438
Every step was advancing the kingdom of god.
00:13:00.438 --> 00:13:03.374
And he's inviting you to walk the same way,
00:13:03.374 --> 00:13:06.611
Not in confusion, not walking in fear,
00:13:06.611 --> 00:13:09.714
But walking in true authority journey with jesus walks you
00:13:09.714 --> 00:13:14.485
Through every step of jesus ministry, not just as history,
00:13:14.485 --> 00:13:18.756
But as a map for your life right now.
00:13:18.756 --> 00:13:21.059
So get your copy at the link on your screen,
00:13:21.059 --> 00:13:23.394
Because followers of jesus don't wander.
00:13:23.394 --> 00:13:26.631
They actually advance.
00:13:26.631 --> 00:13:28.266
This is your time to take your next step in discipleship.
00:13:28.266 --> 00:13:31.736
Get the book now. and so i really believe that where some
00:13:31.736 --> 00:13:36.040
Of us have been in error is we have not gathered together.
00:13:36.040 --> 00:13:40.745
And we have such an emphasis on private prayer time
00:13:40.745 --> 00:13:44.182
That we need an emphasis on corporate prayer time.
00:13:44.182 --> 00:13:47.619
We have such an emphasis on individual devotion.
00:13:47.619 --> 00:13:51.256
But in the book of acts, you see them gathering together,
00:13:51.256 --> 00:13:54.826
Being devoted in the word together.
00:13:54.826 --> 00:13:57.528
Could it be that you got the entire equation right except
00:13:57.528 --> 00:14:01.432
For the one thing that mattered the most.
00:14:01.432 --> 00:14:03.568
And it's the thing that violates your introversion the most.
00:14:03.568 --> 00:14:06.671
And it's all, there's one baptism,
00:14:06.671 --> 00:14:10.541
But there's many fillings.
00:14:10.541 --> 00:14:12.877
This is the emphasis. how many times do you eat?
00:14:12.877 --> 00:14:16.180
Maybe 2, 3, 4 times in a day. you wake up, you do it again.
00:14:16.180 --> 00:14:19.884
I really believe that god is calling us to a place
00:14:19.884 --> 00:14:22.620
To not just break chains or break curses,
00:14:22.620 --> 00:14:25.390
But to break bread.
00:14:25.390 --> 00:14:27.158
And there's such a hyper emphasis on me doing
00:14:27.158 --> 00:14:30.395
This by myself.
00:14:30.395 --> 00:14:31.930
And the lord is like, no, give yourself to relationship.
00:14:31.930 --> 00:14:34.732
Give yourself to the local church. give yourself to unity.
00:14:34.732 --> 00:14:38.336
But god, that's where i got hurt.
00:14:38.336 --> 00:14:40.305
Yes, but jesus went to the cross. go to your cross.
00:14:40.305 --> 00:14:43.675
You'll be hurt again and again and again.
00:14:43.675 --> 00:14:45.843
But you'll be healed again and again and again.
00:14:45.843 --> 00:14:48.446
If my metric for being a pastor was that i never got hurt
00:14:48.446 --> 00:14:52.483
By the church, i would never be,
00:14:52.483 --> 00:14:54.385
And i would never become a pastor.
00:14:54.385 --> 00:14:56.454
But my metric is it's time to get on my cross again.
00:14:56.454 --> 00:15:00.058
I came here to serve. i came here to die like christ died.
00:15:00.058 --> 00:15:04.228
I'm dying to my preferences.
00:15:04.228 --> 00:15:05.930
People come and people go, but i'll be here.
00:15:05.930 --> 00:15:09.100
And there's something about learning the sacred way
00:15:09.100 --> 00:15:11.536
That becomes the narrow path for our life.
00:15:11.536 --> 00:15:14.138
Is there anybody who will stand to your feet
00:15:14.138 --> 00:15:16.074
With me right now and say, i wanna walk this narrow road
00:15:16.074 --> 00:15:19.444
Through the pain, through the struggle.
00:15:20.311 --> 00:15:23.081
I'll walk this narrow road,
00:15:23.081 --> 00:15:26.184
But mike, i was hurt at another church.
00:15:27.018 --> 00:15:29.954
Well, it's time to get hurt again.
00:15:29.954 --> 00:15:35.426
Abstinence from lust hurts
00:15:35.994 --> 00:15:38.863
Because god gave you the desire for sex.
00:15:38.863 --> 00:15:42.567
Abstinence from alcohol hurts
00:15:43.201 --> 00:15:45.636
Because being drunk feels good.
00:15:45.636 --> 00:15:48.606
Let's be honest with ourselves.
00:15:48.606 --> 00:15:50.908
So our very christianity is predicated on going
00:15:50.908 --> 00:15:54.746
Through the pain.
00:15:54.746 --> 00:15:56.614
Unity hurts.
00:15:56.614 --> 00:15:58.416
But i thought to myself in acts chapter one,
00:15:58.416 --> 00:16:00.485
What were they unified over?
00:16:00.485 --> 00:16:02.220
Were they unified over theology?
00:16:02.220 --> 00:16:04.322
Well, there wasn't even a written testament.
00:16:04.322 --> 00:16:06.624
There wasn't a seminary.
00:16:06.624 --> 00:16:07.825
So they weren't unified over theology.
00:16:07.825 --> 00:16:10.194
Were they unified over a church strategy?
00:16:10.194 --> 00:16:13.031
Well, there wasn't even a formal church yet.
00:16:13.031 --> 00:16:15.099
This was primitive. they, what were they unified over?
00:16:15.099 --> 00:16:18.069
I i thought about this very deep this week.
00:16:18.069 --> 00:16:20.071
What was the source of their unity?
00:16:20.071 --> 00:16:21.773
And then i thought about peter, who was really the one
00:16:21.773 --> 00:16:24.575
That was at the forefront.
00:16:24.575 --> 00:16:26.277
And i thought to myself, what was peter thinking?
00:16:26.277 --> 00:16:29.480
Peter was the one who denied christ three times.
00:16:29.480 --> 00:16:32.750
Peter was the one who knew that he did not deserve to go
00:16:32.750 --> 00:16:36.521
Beyond that rejection.
00:16:36.521 --> 00:16:38.022
But when the angel came upon the resurrection,
00:16:38.022 --> 00:16:40.792
The angel said, go tell all the disciples christ has risen.
00:16:40.792 --> 00:16:44.695
And especially go tell peter.
00:16:44.695 --> 00:16:47.098
So then all of a sudden something actually dawned on me.
00:16:47.098 --> 00:16:50.768
It was very simply this, the unity
00:16:50.768 --> 00:16:53.438
Of the church was not unity over a logo was not unity over a
00:16:53.438 --> 00:16:57.942
Church brand was not unity around a celebrity pastor.
00:16:57.942 --> 00:17:01.813
It was unity around one simple realization. i was lost.
00:17:01.813 --> 00:17:07.085
Now i'm found i was blind.
00:17:07.652 --> 00:17:09.320
Now i see it was unity around humility.
00:17:09.320 --> 00:17:12.757
It was unity around grace.
00:17:12.757 --> 00:17:14.725
It was unity saying, none of us deserve to be here.
00:17:14.725 --> 00:17:17.895
We've all sinned and fallen short of the glory of god.
00:17:17.895 --> 00:17:21.766
But the grace of god is that much greater to pick me up out
00:17:21.766 --> 00:17:26.504
Of that miry clay, to put my feet upon the solid rock.
00:17:26.504 --> 00:17:31.042
Is there anybody here who can testify?
00:17:31.042 --> 00:17:34.378
But god had he not save me?
00:17:34.378 --> 00:17:38.282
Somebody shout, hallelujah. hallelujah.
00:17:38.282 --> 00:17:42.587
They were unified in humility.
00:17:42.587 --> 00:17:46.524
Then all somebody say, all, all, all were filled
00:17:46.524 --> 00:17:51.262
By the spirit.
00:17:51.262 --> 00:17:53.197
All, all. so this is what's we're about to do.
00:17:53.197 --> 00:17:57.869
We're gonna pray in a few moments.
00:17:57.869 --> 00:17:59.704
There's a man named abraham, you know, he had many sons.
00:17:59.704 --> 00:18:04.242
He was a father of the nation of israel.
00:18:05.109 --> 00:18:08.079
So everybody talks about the abrahamic covenant.
00:18:08.079 --> 00:18:12.049
And the moment when this mysterious,
00:18:12.049 --> 00:18:14.085
Supernatural priest named melchi
00:18:14.085 --> 00:18:17.188
Who is jesus in the old testament, he shows up
00:18:17.188 --> 00:18:22.193
And melchizedek offers wine and
00:18:22.193 --> 00:18:27.465
Watch this. and all of a sudden in response to this,
00:18:28.533 --> 00:18:31.836
This high priest, this is genesis chapter 14.
00:18:31.836 --> 00:18:36.541
It says that abram says, i'm going to give you a 10th
00:18:36.541 --> 00:18:40.578
Of everything i have.
00:18:40.578 --> 00:18:41.779
And then a covenant is established
00:18:41.779 --> 00:18:44.482
And a promise is released.
00:18:44.482 --> 00:18:46.617
But everybody knows that story,
00:18:46.617 --> 00:18:48.853
But nobody knows what just happened before that moment.
00:18:48.853 --> 00:18:53.057
Do you know what it is? genesis 14. guess what happened?
00:18:53.057 --> 00:18:56.961
Abraham just won a massive military victory.
00:18:56.961 --> 00:19:02.066
He just fought a war on behalf of lot
00:19:02.867 --> 00:19:06.103
And he strategized.
00:19:06.103 --> 00:19:08.206
Then after he came out of that war,
00:19:08.206 --> 00:19:11.175
Then melchizedek shows up with w
00:19:11.175 --> 00:19:14.378
It's almost like he went from fighting to feasting.
00:19:14.378 --> 00:19:17.315
Oh, come on. it's almost like
00:19:17.315 --> 00:19:19.784
After he fought, the lord said, now it's time
00:19:19.784 --> 00:19:23.321
For wine and bread.
00:19:23.321 --> 00:19:24.889
And he begin, then he establishes a covenant with him.
00:19:24.889 --> 00:19:28.226
I don't know who i'm talking to,
00:19:28.226 --> 00:19:29.961
But if you're here under the sound of my voice
00:19:29.961 --> 00:19:32.430
And you've been going through a battle, you've been going
00:19:32.430 --> 00:19:35.032
Through fighting, oh, come on, melchizedek, jesus christ,
00:19:35.032 --> 00:19:38.536
That high priest is coming with wine
00:19:38.536 --> 00:19:40.972
And bread to usher you in to rest and digest.
00:19:40.972 --> 00:19:45.443
And you are gonna be filled again and restored in your body,
00:19:45.443 --> 00:19:49.580
But not just to stay there, to go out
00:19:49.580 --> 00:19:52.350
And fight again, to get another victory,
00:19:52.350 --> 00:19:54.819
To get more territory.
00:19:54.819 --> 00:19:56.621
Because you are the predator, not the prey.
00:19:56.621 --> 00:19:59.190
You are the hunter, not the hunter.
00:19:59.190 --> 00:20:01.292
But you don't hunt all the time.
00:20:01.292 --> 00:20:03.394
You come back to the as often as you do this,
00:20:03.394 --> 00:20:06.897
Do this in remembrance of me, says the lord.
00:20:06.897 --> 00:20:10.434
How many of you believe that you are getting ready
00:20:10.434 --> 00:20:12.770
To feast again?
00:20:12.770 --> 00:20:14.205
But for those of you, how many
00:20:14.839 --> 00:20:16.340
Of you believe you're getting ready to fight again?
00:20:16.340 --> 00:20:19.310
Come on, you feel this impartation from the lord?
00:20:19.310 --> 00:20:23.047
Has god confirmed anything for you? has god confirmed?
00:20:23.047 --> 00:20:27.251
Okay, i got one last thing.
00:20:27.251 --> 00:20:29.620
I was looking at the jewish calendar
00:20:30.388 --> 00:20:32.523
Because the jewish calendar converges
00:20:32.523 --> 00:20:34.792
With the western calendar.
00:20:34.792 --> 00:20:36.427
Jesus followed the feast and festival.
00:20:36.427 --> 00:20:38.562
So what is the jewish calendar?
00:20:38.562 --> 00:20:40.931
Okay, you can't make this up.
00:20:40.931 --> 00:20:43.134
'cause i said, lord, i know may is different.
00:20:43.134 --> 00:20:45.136
I know may 1st is a divine line,
00:20:45.136 --> 00:20:48.205
And i looked up the jewish calendar.
00:20:48.205 --> 00:20:50.041
Guess what? may 1st is the second passover.
00:20:50.041 --> 00:20:54.745
Okay? some of you don't even know what this means.
00:20:54.745 --> 00:20:58.149
There was the institution of the passover
00:20:58.149 --> 00:21:01.585
And israel was commanded to celebrate the passover,
00:21:01.585 --> 00:21:05.189
But in god's wisdom, he knew
00:21:05.189 --> 00:21:07.858
That there are gonna be some people
00:21:07.858 --> 00:21:09.393
That were in the hospital, some people
00:21:09.393 --> 00:21:11.629
That were in a situation that prevented them from receiving
00:21:11.629 --> 00:21:16.233
And participating in the first passover so
00:21:16.233 --> 00:21:19.003
That he instituted an opportunity a second ch, oh, come on.
00:21:19.003 --> 00:21:23.874
That there would be a do-over, there would be a redo.
00:21:23.874 --> 00:21:26.344
And i kid you not may 1st, 2026 on the jewish
00:21:26.344 --> 00:21:30.948
Calendar is the second passover.
00:21:30.948 --> 00:21:33.551
And it's almost as if god almighty is telling you
00:21:33.551 --> 00:21:36.587
That he's the god of second chances.
00:21:36.587 --> 00:21:38.856
And you may have missed the first time,
00:21:38.856 --> 00:21:41.092
But you will not miss the second time.
00:21:41.092 --> 00:21:43.427
You're gonna show right back up to that appointment,
00:21:43.427 --> 00:21:46.163
You're gonna show right back up to that open door.
00:21:46.163 --> 00:21:48.833
You're gonna show right back up to that provision.
00:21:48.833 --> 00:21:51.435
You're gonna show right back up to that relationship.
00:21:51.435 --> 00:21:54.238
He is the god of the redo.
00:21:54.238 --> 00:21:56.774
He is the god of the second chance.
00:21:56.774 --> 00:21:59.143
He is the god of the second passover. he's so good.
00:21:59.143 --> 00:22:03.214
You don't just get one passover, you get
00:22:03.214 --> 00:22:05.783
To do it over again if you missed it, how many
00:22:05.783 --> 00:22:09.253
Of you're saying god thank you for another chance?
00:22:09.253 --> 00:22:14.024
This is why in acts chapter one and two, pentecost happens.
00:22:15.192 --> 00:22:19.663
It's almost like the holy spirit was saying you missed the
00:22:19.663 --> 00:22:22.767
First pentecost.
00:22:22.767 --> 00:22:24.268
But i'll baptize you again if you need it another time.
00:22:24.268 --> 00:22:28.072
I'll do it again in a few moments. i wanna pray for you.
00:22:28.072 --> 00:22:31.909
You know, i've seen medically verifiable miracles
00:22:31.909 --> 00:22:34.412
All around the world.
00:22:34.412 --> 00:22:35.746
I wanna pray for you. i,
00:22:35.746 --> 00:22:37.448
I've actually seen people delivered from demons in moments.
00:22:37.448 --> 00:22:40.384
But the greatest miracle is salvation.
00:22:40.384 --> 00:22:42.753
It's when someone who's dead in their sin, literally headed
00:22:42.753 --> 00:22:46.123
To hell, is saved by jesus christ and made to be alive
00:22:46.123 --> 00:22:50.628
And headed to heaven.
00:22:50.628 --> 00:22:52.129
And that can happen if you do what romans chapter 10,
00:22:52.129 --> 00:22:54.865
Verse nine says, can confess with your mouth,
00:22:54.865 --> 00:22:57.234
Believe in your heart and you will be saved.
00:22:57.234 --> 00:22:59.637
It's that we don't earn it, we don't deserve it,
00:22:59.637 --> 00:23:02.072
We just receive it.
00:23:02.072 --> 00:23:03.774
So i want you to repeat these words with me
00:23:03.774 --> 00:23:06.177
Because i don't believe in accidents
00:23:06.177 --> 00:23:07.711
And the holy spirit's been drawing you.
00:23:07.711 --> 00:23:09.713
Say it with me. heavenly father, i thank you for the cross
00:23:09.713 --> 00:23:13.818
Where my sins were forgiven.
00:23:13.818 --> 00:23:16.053
Wash me with your blood. i am a disciple.
00:23:16.053 --> 00:23:20.024
I surrender my life completely,
00:23:20.024 --> 00:23:22.326
And i will follow you on the narrow road in jesus' name.
00:23:22.326 --> 00:23:26.864
Come on, say it boldly. amen.
00:23:26.864 --> 00:23:29.233
Well, i'm so glad that you just made that decision
00:23:29.233 --> 00:23:31.702
To give your life to jesus.
00:23:31.702 --> 00:23:33.204
I would actually like to help you on your
00:23:33.204 --> 00:23:35.105
Journey as a disciple.
00:23:35.105 --> 00:23:36.707
And if you scan the qr code,
00:23:36.707 --> 00:23:38.309
We will immediately send you a free prayer guide
00:23:38.309 --> 00:23:41.979
That will actually give you access to prayers for anxiety
00:23:41.979 --> 00:23:45.416
And just different physical conditions you
00:23:45.416 --> 00:23:47.818
Might be struggling with.
00:23:47.818 --> 00:23:48.953
And it's a great resource and a tool.
00:23:48.953 --> 00:23:51.422
As a matter of fact, we also have prayer team members
00:23:51.422 --> 00:23:53.858
That are standing by waiting for you to reach out.
00:23:53.858 --> 00:23:56.360
Now, i'll see you in the next episode.
00:23:56.360 --> 00:23:59.864
Hey, i need your help.
00:23:59.864 --> 00:24:01.065
You know, here in new york city,
00:24:01.065 --> 00:24:02.433
I am reaching young people for christ.
00:24:02.433 --> 00:24:05.102
And we are seeing them from every different background,
00:24:05.102 --> 00:24:08.239
Just except jesus.
00:24:08.239 --> 00:24:09.640
I mean, it's truly like a movement.
00:24:09.640 --> 00:24:11.575
We're actually taking nightclubs
00:24:11.575 --> 00:24:13.577
And turning them into churches on sunday mornings.
00:24:13.577 --> 00:24:16.580
And it is a very hard thing.
00:24:16.580 --> 00:24:18.916
But the reason why i say that is
00:24:18.916 --> 00:24:20.351
Because these are young people like your grandchildren
00:24:20.351 --> 00:24:23.587
And you know, like your nieces and nephews,
00:24:23.587 --> 00:24:26.056
And we're leading them to christ.
00:24:26.056 --> 00:24:27.491
But i, here's why i need your help.
00:24:27.491 --> 00:24:29.093
First of all, pray for us.
00:24:29.093 --> 00:24:30.794
And secondly, if you would consider give,
00:24:30.794 --> 00:24:33.831
Giving a gift to the ministry.
00:24:33.831 --> 00:24:36.100
If you call the number on the screen right now,
00:24:36.100 --> 00:24:38.235
We have prayer team members that'll pray with you,
00:24:38.235 --> 00:24:40.704
But just consider helping us on this.
00:24:40.704 --> 00:24:43.774
But i want to tell you one of the reasons why you might feel
00:24:43.774 --> 00:24:46.510
So connected to my preaching is
00:24:46.510 --> 00:24:48.612
Because you're not retired, you're refire
00:24:48.612 --> 00:24:51.181
And god is reigniting you
00:24:51.181 --> 00:24:53.117
And he's actually causing you to be on fire again
00:24:53.117 --> 00:24:56.387
And return to your first love.
00:24:56.387 --> 00:24:58.489
And so help us as we're on this mission.
00:24:58.489 --> 00:25:01.025
I never thought that out of new york city,
00:25:01.025 --> 00:25:03.494
I would be bringing a television show all around the world.
00:25:03.494 --> 00:25:06.997
And it's been a tremendous sacrifice for us.
00:25:06.997 --> 00:25:09.867
But i just believe that as we come together all
00:25:09.867 --> 00:25:12.570
Around the world right now, you can help us.
00:25:12.570 --> 00:25:15.172
And if you sow into young people,
00:25:15.172 --> 00:25:17.975
Just like your grandchildren, just like your nieces
00:25:17.975 --> 00:25:20.411
And nephews, i believe
00:25:20.411 --> 00:25:21.779
That you'll reap a harvest in your own family.
00:25:21.779 --> 00:25:24.582
So the information's on the screen right now.
00:25:24.582 --> 00:25:26.383
You can scan the qr code
00:25:26.383 --> 00:25:28.152
And you can sow a seed, you can support us,
00:25:28.152 --> 00:25:32.389
And also you can call in now and
00:25:32.389 --> 00:25:34.625
And meet with our team as well.
00:25:34.625 --> 00:25:36.694
So thank you so much for being a part of the broadcast
00:25:36.694 --> 00:25:39.496
And being a partner for our ministry to help,
00:25:39.496 --> 00:25:42.232
Not just in new york city, but around the world.
00:25:42.232 --> 00:25:45.069
I would love to meet you in person as we retrace the steps
00:25:45.069 --> 00:25:49.740
Of the apostle paul on an unforgettable journey
00:25:49.740 --> 00:25:53.110
Through greece and turkey.
00:25:53.110 --> 00:25:54.912
It's gonna be a five star experience
00:25:54.912 --> 00:25:57.314
With not only incredible hotels, but also a cruise.
00:25:57.314 --> 00:26:00.985
And we're gonna go to the very places
00:26:00.985 --> 00:26:02.987
That scripture was written, including patmos, where the book
00:26:02.987 --> 00:26:06.624
Of revelation was written by john.
00:26:06.624 --> 00:26:09.126
I cannot wait to meet you in person, but seats are limited,
00:26:09.126 --> 00:26:12.963
Although they're still available.
00:26:12.963 --> 00:26:14.865
So you have to make the decision now.
00:26:14.865 --> 00:26:17.301
The information's here on the screen.
00:26:17.301 --> 00:26:19.303
Go ahead and take advantage of an experience
00:26:19.303 --> 00:26:22.172
That will last a lifetime.
00:26:22.172 --> 00:26:24.008
I wanna pray with you at these locations
00:26:24.008 --> 00:26:26.477
As we invite the presence of the holy spirit.
00:26:26.477 --> 00:26:29.146
I want to teach you exactly what was happening in culture
00:26:29.146 --> 00:26:32.516
As the scriptures were written.
00:26:32.516 --> 00:26:34.251
I wanna have some incredible meals together with you.
00:26:34.251 --> 00:26:37.488
It's going to be amazing.
00:26:37.488 --> 00:26:39.657
But i need you to make that decision now
00:26:39.657 --> 00:26:41.625
Before all of the seats are gone.
00:26:41.625 --> 00:26:44.461
It's gonna be amazing, and i can't wait to meet you.
00:26:44.461 --> 00:26:47.598
Go ahead, make that decision to retrace the steps
00:26:47.598 --> 00:26:51.435
Of the apostle paul with mike signorelli on tour.
00:26:51.435 --> 00:26:55.205
Can't wait to see you there.
00:26:55.205 --> 00:26:58.242
- jesus said in matthew seven,
00:26:58.876 --> 00:26:58.876
