- the narrow way broadcast
00:00:00.225 --> 00:00:01.827
Is brought to you in part by partners
00:00:01.827 --> 00:00:03.395
Of mike signorelli ministries and viewers like you.
00:00:03.395 --> 00:00:06.465
Of mike signorelli ministries and viewers like you,
00:00:06.465 --> 00:00:07.099
- god is trying to tell somebody under the sound
00:00:08.033 --> 00:00:10.502
Of my voice right now, you are trying so hard
00:00:10.502 --> 00:00:13.305
To forget your past, not recognizing
00:00:13.305 --> 00:00:16.141
That god forgets your sins,
00:00:16.141 --> 00:00:18.277
But you have to remember your past
00:00:18.277 --> 00:00:20.946
Because your past is the evidence that you were saved.
00:00:20.946 --> 00:00:24.450
And every single time the devil says, well,
00:00:24.450 --> 00:00:26.685
Look at your caesarea philippi.
00:00:26.685 --> 00:00:28.420
Mike, weren't you an alcoholic? mike?
00:00:28.420 --> 00:00:30.522
Weren't you an adulterer? oh yeah, all that's true.
00:00:30.522 --> 00:00:33.325
The foundation is there,
00:00:33.325 --> 00:00:34.893
But devil tell the rest of the story.
00:00:34.893 --> 00:00:37.529
What did god build on top of caesarea philippi?
00:00:37.529 --> 00:00:41.133
Oh yeah, that foundation is undeniable.
00:00:41.133 --> 00:00:43.902
But what did you build?
00:00:43.902 --> 00:00:45.204
You took my broken marriage
00:00:45.204 --> 00:00:47.339
And he built a marriage ministry.
00:00:47.339 --> 00:00:49.875
He took that addiction to alcohol
00:00:49.875 --> 00:00:52.211
And built a deliverance ministry.
00:00:52.211 --> 00:00:54.413
I can't deny the foundation,
00:00:54.413 --> 00:00:56.615
But you can't deny the church that was built on top of it.
00:00:56.615 --> 00:01:01.053
This path is already narrow
00:01:01.053 --> 00:01:03.088
And we will forge forward, making no excuse
00:01:03.088 --> 00:01:06.024
For why we can live uncompromised in this generation.
00:01:06.024 --> 00:01:09.895
Walk in, give me a hundred people who will walk
00:01:09.895 --> 00:01:13.398
That narrow road
00:01:13.398 --> 00:01:14.766
And say, i may have some things in my family,
00:01:14.766 --> 00:01:18.137
But i'll where and run out.
00:01:18.137 --> 00:01:22.975
So everybody has a different version of jesus.
00:01:23.942 --> 00:01:27.412
But the question that jesus was saying right in the midst
00:01:27.412 --> 00:01:30.482
Of caesarea philippi is, who do you say that i am?
00:01:30.482 --> 00:01:35.787
And this is the answer, and this is, this is ama.
00:01:36.788 --> 00:01:38.957
An amazing moment in the history
00:01:38.957 --> 00:01:41.560
Of the church is peter literally says,
00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:44.696
You are the christ, the son of the living god.
00:01:45.597 --> 00:01:49.268
And he says it right next to all that filth,
00:01:49.268 --> 00:01:51.904
Right next to all that.
00:01:51.904 --> 00:01:53.272
And this is what jesus says.
00:01:53.272 --> 00:01:55.073
Now, his name was simon peter, but jesus doesn't say simon.
00:01:55.073 --> 00:01:59.611
He emphasizes peter,
00:01:59.611 --> 00:02:01.213
Which in the original language means a fragment of the rock.
00:02:01.213 --> 00:02:04.550
So think about what i'm saying.
00:02:04.550 --> 00:02:06.084
They're standing on physical rock of caesarea philippi
00:02:06.084 --> 00:02:09.821
With a cave with pagan temples
00:02:09.821 --> 00:02:12.191
That are carved into this side of this mountain.
00:02:12.191 --> 00:02:14.860
And he's literally saying, upon this rock,
00:02:14.860 --> 00:02:18.564
I will build my church.
00:02:18.564 --> 00:02:20.532
And not even the gates, it's like he pointed to the cave
00:02:20.532 --> 00:02:24.169
That they thought was the portal into hades,
00:02:24.169 --> 00:02:26.705
And he said, not even the gates
00:02:26.705 --> 00:02:28.507
Of hell will prevail against it.
00:02:28.507 --> 00:02:31.043
Come on. this is so powerful
00:02:31.043 --> 00:02:34.146
Because jesus was speaking on multiple layers.
00:02:34.146 --> 00:02:37.516
Layer number one, peter, your confession of me
00:02:37.516 --> 00:02:41.720
As savior is the rock
00:02:41.720 --> 00:02:43.889
That you're building your whole life on.
00:02:43.889 --> 00:02:46.024
I don't know who i came to tell this to today,
00:02:46.024 --> 00:02:48.827
But when you said, jesus christ is my savior,
00:02:48.827 --> 00:02:52.264
Therefore there is no condemnation to those
00:02:52.264 --> 00:02:55.100
Who are in christ jesus.
00:02:55.100 --> 00:02:56.602
Your life is built on a solid rock.
00:02:56.602 --> 00:02:59.004
And it doesn't matter what that demon reminds you of.
00:02:59.004 --> 00:03:01.974
It doesn't matter what your friend says upon that rock
00:03:01.974 --> 00:03:05.377
Of your confession.
00:03:05.377 --> 00:03:06.745
You can't earn your salvation.
00:03:06.745 --> 00:03:08.680
You don't deserve your salvation.
00:03:08.680 --> 00:03:10.616
You receive the gift of god when you say, i know
00:03:10.616 --> 00:03:14.786
Who you are.
00:03:14.786 --> 00:03:16.288
But there's another layer, the rock of caesarea philippi
00:03:17.422 --> 00:03:21.727
Upon this rock, the place
00:03:21.727 --> 00:03:25.731
Where all come on.
00:03:25.731 --> 00:03:27.766
People will say, god's done with america. oh, no, no, no.
00:03:27.766 --> 00:03:31.103
Matter of fact, what is manhattan made out of?
00:03:31.103 --> 00:03:33.805
Yeah, yeah, yeah. now you're getting it upon this rock
00:03:34.873 --> 00:03:38.176
Where they're smoking weed and dope in the streets
00:03:38.176 --> 00:03:40.812
And the hitting the crack pipe and the prostitution
00:03:40.812 --> 00:03:44.116
And the gangs are recruiting.
00:03:44.116 --> 00:03:45.417
Well, guess what? god's recruiting too,
00:03:45.417 --> 00:03:47.719
Because upon this rock, i will build my church
00:03:47.719 --> 00:03:51.757
And not even the gates of hell will prevail against.
00:03:51.757 --> 00:03:55.327
As a matter of fact, the best foundation
00:03:55.327 --> 00:03:57.562
To build the church is on the very thing
00:03:57.562 --> 00:04:00.232
That the world thinks is impossible to build a church
00:04:00.232 --> 00:04:03.568
Because god gets more glory, the darker it is.
00:04:03.568 --> 00:04:08.473
I would love to meet you in person as we retrace the steps
00:04:09.641 --> 00:04:14.279
Of the apostle paul on an unforgettable journey
00:04:14.279 --> 00:04:17.582
Through greece and turkey.
00:04:17.582 --> 00:04:19.451
It's gonna be a five star experience
00:04:19.451 --> 00:04:21.820
With not only incredible hotels, but also a cruise.
00:04:21.820 --> 00:04:25.624
And we're gonna go to the very places
00:04:25.624 --> 00:04:27.592
That scripture was written, including patmos, where the book
00:04:27.592 --> 00:04:31.229
Of revelation was written by john.
00:04:31.229 --> 00:04:33.732
I cannot wait to meet you in person, but seats are limited,
00:04:33.732 --> 00:04:37.536
Although they're still available.
00:04:37.536 --> 00:04:39.438
So you have to make the decision now.
00:04:39.438 --> 00:04:41.907
The information's here on the screen.
00:04:41.907 --> 00:04:43.875
Go ahead and take advantage of an experience
00:04:43.875 --> 00:04:46.712
That will last a lifetime.
00:04:46.712 --> 00:04:48.613
I wanna pray with you at these locations
00:04:48.613 --> 00:04:51.049
As we invite the presence of the holy spirit.
00:04:51.049 --> 00:04:53.752
I want to teach you exactly what was happening in culture
00:04:53.752 --> 00:04:57.089
As the scriptures were written.
00:04:57.089 --> 00:04:58.824
I want to have some incredible meals together with you.
00:04:58.824 --> 00:05:02.060
It's going to be amazing.
00:05:02.060 --> 00:05:04.229
But i need you to make that decision now
00:05:04.229 --> 00:05:06.231
Before all of the seats are gone.
00:05:06.231 --> 00:05:09.067
It's gonna be amazing, and i can't wait to meet you.
00:05:09.067 --> 00:05:12.137
Go ahead, make that decision to retrace the steps
00:05:12.137 --> 00:05:15.974
Of the apostle paul with mike signorelli on tour.
00:05:15.974 --> 00:05:19.711
Can't wait to see you there
00:05:19.711 --> 00:05:26.251
Think about this though.
00:05:26.752 --> 00:05:28.053
This is, you've gotta get this with me. okay?
00:05:28.053 --> 00:05:31.089
So he's talking about caesarea philippi as well.
00:05:31.089 --> 00:05:34.860
And this is, this is something that i,
00:05:34.860 --> 00:05:37.028
I never heard anybody preach.
00:05:37.028 --> 00:05:38.630
I'm not saying they haven't, i just haven't heard it.
00:05:38.630 --> 00:05:41.032
But i was thinking about the context of where jesus was.
00:05:41.032 --> 00:05:45.437
He was in this extremely sinful place.
00:05:45.437 --> 00:05:47.873
And he looks and he says, simon peter, he says,
00:05:47.873 --> 00:05:51.309
Upon this rock.
00:05:51.309 --> 00:05:52.644
I will build my church and not even the gates
00:05:52.644 --> 00:05:54.146
Of hell will prevail against it.
00:05:54.146 --> 00:05:56.348
And here's, here's the thing.
00:05:56.348 --> 00:05:58.884
The foundation of caesarea philippi,
00:05:58.884 --> 00:06:01.386
The church gets built upon it,
00:06:01.386 --> 00:06:03.455
Which means every single time you look at the church,
00:06:03.455 --> 00:06:06.124
You're gonna get a reminder of where it came from.
00:06:06.124 --> 00:06:09.294
Let me just tell you this.
00:06:09.294 --> 00:06:10.796
God is trying to tell somebody under the sound
00:06:10.796 --> 00:06:13.565
Of my voice right now, you are trying so hard
00:06:13.565 --> 00:06:16.334
To forget your past, not recognizing
00:06:16.334 --> 00:06:19.171
That god forgets your sins,
00:06:19.171 --> 00:06:21.306
But you have to remember your past
00:06:21.306 --> 00:06:24.009
Because your past is the evidence that you were saved.
00:06:24.009 --> 00:06:27.479
And every single time the devil says, well,
00:06:27.479 --> 00:06:29.748
Look at your caesarea philippi.
00:06:29.748 --> 00:06:31.450
Mike, weren't you an alcoholic?
00:06:31.450 --> 00:06:33.218
Mike, weren't you an adulterer? oh yeah, all that's true.
00:06:33.218 --> 00:06:36.388
The foundation is there,
00:06:36.388 --> 00:06:37.923
But devil tell the rest of the story.
00:06:37.923 --> 00:06:40.592
What did god build on top of caesarea philippi?
00:06:40.592 --> 00:06:44.062
Oh yeah, that foundation is undeniable.
00:06:44.062 --> 00:06:46.865
But what did you build?
00:06:46.865 --> 00:06:48.133
You took my broken marriage
00:06:48.133 --> 00:06:50.268
And he built a marriage ministry.
00:06:50.268 --> 00:06:52.804
He took that addiction to alcohol
00:06:52.804 --> 00:06:55.140
And built a deliverance ministry.
00:06:55.140 --> 00:06:57.342
I can't deny the foundation,
00:06:57.342 --> 00:06:59.544
But you can't deny the church that was built on top of it.
00:06:59.544 --> 00:07:03.515
Somebody give them a ten second praise break if you've been
00:07:03.515 --> 00:07:07.118
Saved, if you've been delivered, if you've been sanctified,
00:07:07.118 --> 00:07:10.989
If you've got a caesarea philippi
00:07:10.989 --> 00:07:13.458
With a church sitting on top of it, hallelujah.
00:07:13.458 --> 00:07:20.866
Because
00:07:21.099 --> 00:07:22.601
What happens is we wanna pretend like the foundation's not
00:07:22.601 --> 00:07:25.237
There, not realizing that they overcame by the blood
00:07:25.237 --> 00:07:29.241
Of the lamb and the word of their testimony.
00:07:29.241 --> 00:07:33.178
The darkest part, the most heinous part, the part
00:07:33.178 --> 00:07:36.748
That you think is a secret, is actually your secret weapon.
00:07:36.748 --> 00:07:40.519
The part that you think you could never tell somebody is
00:07:40.519 --> 00:07:43.455
Your bestselling book.
00:07:43.455 --> 00:07:45.023
The part, the part that you wanna keep in the closet is the
00:07:45.023 --> 00:07:48.260
Part that's gonna platform.
00:07:48.260 --> 00:07:49.794
You see this caesarea philippi, stop trying
00:07:49.794 --> 00:07:53.031
To avoid the place that god wants
00:07:53.031 --> 00:07:55.267
To build your very life on top of.
00:07:55.267 --> 00:07:58.403
I remember my wife
00:07:58.837 --> 00:08:00.171
And i used to say, you know,
00:08:00.171 --> 00:08:01.840
I don't know, we should tell them this.
00:08:01.840 --> 00:08:03.341
And we would sit down and which parts
00:08:03.341 --> 00:08:05.277
Of our story are we gonna say?
00:08:05.277 --> 00:08:06.878
And over the years, the lord say, tell 'em the whole thing.
00:08:06.878 --> 00:08:10.148
See, if i don't tell you the whole story,
00:08:11.016 --> 00:08:12.350
You can't get the whole freedom.
00:08:12.350 --> 00:08:14.619
Oh, i'm talking to somebody right now.
00:08:14.619 --> 00:08:17.022
You gotta learn how to own your story.
00:08:17.022 --> 00:08:19.624
And what you're saying is, no, no, no.
00:08:19.624 --> 00:08:21.159
I own this story because god built something on it.
00:08:21.159 --> 00:08:24.663
And, and this is very important. somebody say this with me.
00:08:24.663 --> 00:08:28.567
I'm not hiding from hell, i'm hiding from hell.
00:08:28.567 --> 00:08:31.570
Come on, say it bold.
00:08:31.570 --> 00:08:33.071
I'm not hiding from hell, not hiding from hell. yeah.
00:08:33.071 --> 00:08:36.241
See, this is, this is what we need to talk about.
00:08:36.241 --> 00:08:38.710
I remember in our youth group here in this church,
00:08:38.710 --> 00:08:41.479
We had a season where all the gen zs were getting
00:08:41.479 --> 00:08:43.882
Addicted to vaping.
00:08:43.882 --> 00:08:45.216
And, and the parents of our church were like,
00:08:45.216 --> 00:08:47.218
We don't understand it.
00:08:47.218 --> 00:08:48.620
The vaping, the nicotine turned into vaping, thc.
00:08:48.620 --> 00:08:51.623
And we had this move through all of our campuses.
00:08:51.623 --> 00:08:54.192
And, and i remember the, the parents being so distraught.
00:08:54.192 --> 00:08:57.295
So i ended up finding out which bodega in new york city was
00:08:57.295 --> 00:09:00.165
Selling it to a lot of 'em.
00:09:00.165 --> 00:09:01.866
So here comes apostle mike
00:09:01.866 --> 00:09:03.902
And i walked in there with a bag full of vapes
00:09:04.836 --> 00:09:08.206
And i said, hey, where can i get these?
00:09:08.206 --> 00:09:09.941
And he was like, oh yeah, the, we got all those.
00:09:09.941 --> 00:09:11.710
I was like, oh, i know you got all these.
00:09:11.710 --> 00:09:13.511
And i said, how old do you have to be to buy these?
00:09:13.511 --> 00:09:15.347
And he told me. and i said, okay,
00:09:15.347 --> 00:09:16.681
So you feel good about selling these to kids?
00:09:16.681 --> 00:09:19.618
And there was a line of people, and i just confronted him.
00:09:19.618 --> 00:09:22.387
I said, i'm a pastor in this city.
00:09:22.387 --> 00:09:24.556
And i said, i'm telling you straight up,
00:09:24.556 --> 00:09:26.257
What you're doing is systematically destroying kids' lives
00:09:26.257 --> 00:09:29.127
In the name of prophet,
00:09:29.127 --> 00:09:30.729
And there's blood on your hands for what you're doing.
00:09:30.729 --> 00:09:33.398
And i may or may not have stepped real close in his face
00:09:33.398 --> 00:09:35.734
Just to see if he made a move.
00:09:35.734 --> 00:09:36.935
'cause you know, i'm always ready.
00:09:36.935 --> 00:09:38.570
You know, i'm from the south side for the of the kingdom.
00:09:39.704 --> 00:09:41.640
You know, it was gonna be self-defense.
00:09:41.640 --> 00:09:43.808
It was gonna be self-defense. somebody said, hallelujah.
00:09:44.943 --> 00:09:48.613
Somebody was like, man, i somebody, somebody from my part
00:09:48.613 --> 00:09:51.783
Of the kingdom's in the audience.
00:09:51.783 --> 00:09:53.618
But, but i, i told him,
00:09:53.618 --> 00:09:55.420
And i said, i said, i'm here on behalf
00:09:55.420 --> 00:09:57.222
Of all these families.
00:09:57.222 --> 00:09:58.690
I'm, i'm here on behalf of these teenagers.
00:09:58.690 --> 00:10:00.592
Now, they didn't do right,
00:10:00.592 --> 00:10:01.926
But somebody had to give them access.
00:10:01.926 --> 00:10:04.496
You hear what i just said? somebody had to give them access.
00:10:04.496 --> 00:10:07.632
So i went to the gate because it was coming through a gate,
00:10:07.632 --> 00:10:11.703
And i told him straight up, i said,
00:10:11.703 --> 00:10:13.238
There's gonna be consequences for what you did.
00:10:13.238 --> 00:10:15.140
And what was crazy is there was other dudes in the line,
00:10:15.140 --> 00:10:17.542
And one guy starts clapping when i was done.
00:10:17.542 --> 00:10:19.277
Like i just did a sermon.
00:10:19.277 --> 00:10:21.212
And he was like, yeah, dad, come on man.
00:10:21.212 --> 00:10:23.415
I was like, on, bro.
00:10:23.415 --> 00:10:25.583
So here's my point though, is that
00:10:25.583 --> 00:10:28.953
Then the lord gave me a revelation about
00:10:28.953 --> 00:10:31.222
How gen z is supposed to be a generation of prayer
00:10:31.222 --> 00:10:34.693
And supplication and worship and, and intercession
00:10:34.693 --> 00:10:38.630
Because the incense would rise day and night.
00:10:38.630 --> 00:10:41.433
And that how the enemy is a counterfeiter.
00:10:41.433 --> 00:10:44.035
Remember i said, it's an upside down kingdom.
00:10:44.035 --> 00:10:46.137
And he, instead of them filling their lungs with prayer
00:10:46.137 --> 00:10:49.274
And intercession and worship, he was trying to get them
00:10:49.274 --> 00:10:51.843
To fill their lungs with thc and nicotine.
00:10:51.843 --> 00:10:54.946
And so then i, after that moment,
00:10:54.946 --> 00:10:56.481
I went all over the world in that domino revival tour,
00:10:56.481 --> 00:10:59.384
Asking young people to give, put their vapes on stage.
00:10:59.384 --> 00:11:02.253
How many of you have seen it?
00:11:02.253 --> 00:11:03.888
But see, what happened was that became
00:11:03.888 --> 00:11:06.725
What was a weapon against my own family,
00:11:06.725 --> 00:11:09.828
What was a weapon against my own church.
00:11:09.828 --> 00:11:12.464
I ended up taking that sword out of goliath's hand
00:11:12.464 --> 00:11:16.034
And chopping his own head off with it.
00:11:16.034 --> 00:11:18.470
And it ended up being for the freedom
00:11:18.470 --> 00:11:20.538
Of many families and many teenagers.
00:11:20.538 --> 00:11:22.841
I just got back from los angeles
00:11:22.841 --> 00:11:24.743
Where the whole stage was filled with vapes.
00:11:24.743 --> 00:11:27.112
And so it's like the devil messed up one time in my life,
00:11:27.112 --> 00:11:30.615
Step into my daughter, step into my family,
00:11:30.615 --> 00:11:33.151
And i made him pay for it thousands
00:11:33.151 --> 00:11:35.386
Of times all over the world.
00:11:35.386 --> 00:11:37.021
See, this is what i'm trying to tell you.
00:11:37.021 --> 00:11:39.257
But the thing is, the thing
00:11:39.257 --> 00:11:40.692
That you wanna keep a secret is your secret weapon.
00:11:40.692 --> 00:11:44.095
But the thing is, the devil can only blackmail you if
00:11:44.095 --> 00:11:46.965
It's in secret.
00:11:46.965 --> 00:11:48.500
But when you bring it out into the open, you're saying,
00:11:48.500 --> 00:11:50.435
Devil, what are you gonna do?
00:11:50.435 --> 00:11:51.569
Now i'm bringing it out in the open.
00:11:51.569 --> 00:11:53.571
And that's why jesus stood in caesarea philippi
00:11:53.571 --> 00:11:56.508
And said, not even the gates, oh, come on,
00:11:56.508 --> 00:12:00.845
Gates are important.
00:12:01.312 --> 00:12:02.614
In psalm chapter 24 verse seven, it says,
00:12:02.614 --> 00:12:04.682
Lift up your heads, o gates.
00:12:04.682 --> 00:12:07.051
This is and be lifted up o ancient doors that the king
00:12:08.153 --> 00:12:11.589
Of glory may come in gates.
00:12:11.589 --> 00:12:15.160
Okay, can i show you something
00:12:15.160 --> 00:12:16.628
That is really profound to me?
00:12:16.628 --> 00:12:18.730
So jesus is standing at caesarea philippi in the gateway
00:12:18.730 --> 00:12:22.901
To hades in the ancient world
00:12:22.901 --> 00:12:25.036
Where all this demonic activity is happening.
00:12:25.036 --> 00:12:27.138
And he tells his disciples, not even the gates
00:12:27.138 --> 00:12:29.808
Of hell will prevail against the kingdom.
00:12:29.808 --> 00:12:32.110
But then he does this weird thing.
00:12:32.110 --> 00:12:33.845
He looks to peter and says, well, who do you say i am?
00:12:33.845 --> 00:12:36.848
So it's like, wait a second.
00:12:36.848 --> 00:12:38.449
Why can the kingdom of heaven just smashed through the gates
00:12:38.449 --> 00:12:41.286
Of hell, but it needs permission from peter?
00:12:41.286 --> 00:12:44.622
Oh, you're about to learn something
00:12:45.356 --> 00:12:47.025
Because there's one gate that even jesus can't enter
00:12:48.092 --> 00:12:52.430
Without permission and it's the gate of your heart.
00:12:53.464 --> 00:12:57.268
It's not that he can't, it's that he won't.
00:12:58.169 --> 00:13:00.672
He can do whatever he wants to do.
00:13:00.672 --> 00:13:02.740
But he said, i'm gonna give you a human will.
00:13:02.740 --> 00:13:06.778
I'm gonna give you the ability
00:13:06.778 --> 00:13:08.079
To make decisions for yourself.
00:13:08.079 --> 00:13:10.481
And i am not gonna violate your will.
00:13:10.481 --> 00:13:13.117
As a matter of fact, when you go
00:13:13.117 --> 00:13:14.319
To revelation chapter three,
00:13:14.319 --> 00:13:16.054
'cause for those of you who're like, well, prove it, mike,
00:13:16.054 --> 00:13:17.922
This i, i don't know how i feel about what you're saying.
00:13:17.922 --> 00:13:20.225
It says, and jesus stands at the door and knocks.
00:13:20.225 --> 00:13:24.162
So why would he be willing to advance the kingdom
00:13:25.163 --> 00:13:27.498
And destroy the gates of hell?
00:13:27.498 --> 00:13:29.334
But then he has to knock at the gate of your heart
00:13:29.334 --> 00:13:32.670
Because you have a will
00:13:32.670 --> 00:13:35.240
And you have to choose to let him in.
00:13:35.240 --> 00:13:38.009
So he stands right in front of peter
00:13:38.009 --> 00:13:39.911
And is like, listen, not even the gates
00:13:39.911 --> 00:13:41.479
Of hell are gonna prevail, but peter, who do you say i am?
00:13:41.479 --> 00:13:46.184
This is why you could be in a church service
00:13:47.118 --> 00:13:48.853
And the glory of the lord's descending
00:13:48.853 --> 00:13:50.922
And you're just weeping
00:13:50.922 --> 00:13:52.423
And you're like, this is the greatest experience ever.
00:13:52.423 --> 00:13:54.492
And then the your boyfriend sitting next to you is like,
00:13:54.492 --> 00:13:56.561
I don't want nothing to do with this.
00:13:56.561 --> 00:13:57.996
Let's get out of here because you opened up your gates
00:13:57.996 --> 00:14:00.665
And he didn't see this.
00:14:00.665 --> 00:14:03.601
This is why this, this message is so important
00:14:03.601 --> 00:14:06.170
Because it's not god.
00:14:06.170 --> 00:14:08.106
We want you to enter into new york city. it's god.
00:14:08.106 --> 00:14:11.376
We want you to enter into the hearts of those
00:14:11.376 --> 00:14:14.679
Who live in new york city,
00:14:14.679 --> 00:14:16.581
But they have to open up muslim gates.
00:14:16.581 --> 00:14:19.918
They have to open up hindu gates.
00:14:19.918 --> 00:14:22.153
They have to open up atheist gates. they have to.
00:14:22.153 --> 00:14:25.189
But here's what i know about jesus,
00:14:25.189 --> 00:14:27.191
Because he will always show up where he's invited.
00:14:27.191 --> 00:14:30.361
He was invited to a manger. that's where he shows up.
00:14:30.361 --> 00:14:33.798
He was invited to the sinner's house.
00:14:33.798 --> 00:14:35.967
The pharisees didn't invite him,
00:14:35.967 --> 00:14:37.568
But the sinners invited him.
00:14:37.568 --> 00:14:39.437
And people were judging the sinners,
00:14:39.437 --> 00:14:41.706
But they were missing the hunger.
00:14:41.706 --> 00:14:43.808
Jesus said, i'll go where they want me.
00:14:43.808 --> 00:14:46.344
I go where they're hungry.
00:14:46.344 --> 00:14:48.012
So the question that i got for you today is,
00:14:48.012 --> 00:14:50.481
Are you hungry for him?
00:14:50.481 --> 00:14:52.517
Do you long for him?
00:14:52.517 --> 00:14:54.085
Will you open the door and welcome him in?
00:14:54.085 --> 00:14:57.755
Forget about the sin. focus on the hunger.
00:14:57.755 --> 00:15:01.859
God, i thirst for you. i long for you.
00:15:01.859 --> 00:15:05.296
Is there anybody who will open up their gates
00:15:05.296 --> 00:15:08.232
With me right now?
00:15:08.232 --> 00:15:10.201
He goes where he's invited, he goes where he's invited.
00:15:11.336 --> 00:15:15.506
People will say, well, why are they always saying,
00:15:15.506 --> 00:15:17.275
Holy spirit, you're welcome.
00:15:17.275 --> 00:15:18.776
I thought the holy spirit already dwells inside of us.
00:15:18.776 --> 00:15:21.412
Yes, but it's an extra layer of opening the gates to say,
00:15:21.412 --> 00:15:25.883
I know you dwell inside of me, but i want more.
00:15:25.883 --> 00:15:29.654
Fill me to overflowing god.
00:15:29.654 --> 00:15:32.290
Yesterday's touch was not enough.
00:15:32.290 --> 00:15:34.859
Yesterday's anointing is already evaporated.
00:15:34.859 --> 00:15:38.096
Yesterday's prayer was already fulfilled.
00:15:38.096 --> 00:15:40.798
I want more of you now. i want more of you today.
00:15:40.798 --> 00:15:46.070
I know who you are.
00:15:46.537 --> 00:15:49.307
Open up the gates.
00:15:49.741 --> 00:15:52.243
God, we're opening up the gates.
00:15:52.243 --> 00:15:55.079
I want you here in my life.
00:15:55.079 --> 00:15:58.216
I feel the anointing.
00:15:58.716 --> 00:16:00.418
These are portals of influence, portals of access,
00:16:01.452 --> 00:16:05.089
Portals of authority.
00:16:05.089 --> 00:16:06.891
We have somebody from our church
00:16:06.891 --> 00:16:08.359
That started bringing fashion like he's a christian.
00:16:08.359 --> 00:16:11.229
That's going into the, the fashion industry
00:16:11.229 --> 00:16:13.931
Invading that space.
00:16:13.931 --> 00:16:15.733
There's people in our church,
00:16:15.733 --> 00:16:17.035
In the music industry invading that space.
00:16:17.035 --> 00:16:19.837
We're working on my second film
00:16:19.837 --> 00:16:21.606
That's gonna premiere this winter.
00:16:21.606 --> 00:16:23.374
And so i'm gonna be back in the movie industry
00:16:23.374 --> 00:16:25.877
And people would say, you can't do this.
00:16:25.877 --> 00:16:27.779
You're a christian, you're a pastor, you're a preacher.
00:16:27.779 --> 00:16:29.580
No, i will. jesus goes wherever he's invited.
00:16:29.580 --> 00:16:34.519
And you'll find yourself in some unlikely spaces.
00:16:34.519 --> 00:16:38.156
But my encouragement to you with this message is
00:16:38.156 --> 00:16:41.526
That god will not force.
00:16:41.526 --> 00:16:43.928
He must be invited. revelation chapter three, verse 20.
00:16:43.928 --> 00:16:47.865
Behold, i stand at the door, i stand at the portal,
00:16:47.865 --> 00:16:52.270
I stand at the gate and i knock.
00:16:52.270 --> 00:16:54.472
If anyone hears my voice
00:16:54.472 --> 00:16:56.941
And opens the door, i will come into him
00:16:56.941 --> 00:17:00.578
And eat with him.
00:17:00.578 --> 00:17:02.213
I'll eat with him. i'll commune with them.
00:17:03.081 --> 00:17:06.084
I'll be their friend. here's the question i have.
00:17:06.084 --> 00:17:09.887
Is there anybody who hears the voice of the lord?
00:17:09.887 --> 00:17:13.091
Do you hear him calling you?
00:17:13.091 --> 00:17:14.892
You know, my mother, she tells me the story.
00:17:14.892 --> 00:17:17.295
She wasn't raised in a christian family.
00:17:17.295 --> 00:17:19.330
She would leave her house as a little girl
00:17:19.330 --> 00:17:21.866
And walk down the street and go to the catholic mass
00:17:21.866 --> 00:17:24.969
Because she said, even from a young age,
00:17:24.969 --> 00:17:27.038
I knew the lord was calling me.
00:17:27.038 --> 00:17:29.340
I, and she didn't even know.
00:17:29.340 --> 00:17:30.508
She thought, maybe i'll be a nun.
00:17:30.508 --> 00:17:31.943
And by the way, my mom would've been the worst nun ever.
00:17:31.943 --> 00:17:35.446
But this is, this is,
00:17:35.947 --> 00:17:37.215
But there's, there's this, this calling.
00:17:37.215 --> 00:17:39.951
Is there anybody under the sound of my voice
00:17:39.951 --> 00:17:42.620
That you know the lord has been calling you?
00:17:42.620 --> 00:17:45.723
You, he's he's, even when you were in sin,
00:17:45.723 --> 00:17:49.026
You would feel the conviction of the calling.
00:17:49.026 --> 00:17:51.095
You couldn't even enjoy it.
00:17:51.095 --> 00:17:52.530
Does anybody know what i'm talking about?
00:17:52.530 --> 00:17:54.532
You, your friends, were having the time in their life
00:17:54.532 --> 00:17:56.767
And they're like, what's wrong with you?
00:17:56.767 --> 00:17:58.336
And you're like, i can't even explain why, why i can't go
00:17:58.336 --> 00:18:01.606
To the cave to worship pan.
00:18:01.606 --> 00:18:04.675
But i feel like i'm supposed
00:18:04.675 --> 00:18:06.144
To be the rock upon which he builds the church.
00:18:06.144 --> 00:18:09.347
I can't get satisfaction for what satisfies you.
00:18:09.347 --> 00:18:13.084
Is there anybody, can i speak
00:18:13.084 --> 00:18:14.652
To the daughters of the church?
00:18:14.652 --> 00:18:16.521
Are there any women that have been in the middle
00:18:16.521 --> 00:18:18.890
Of a relationship with a man
00:18:18.890 --> 00:18:20.758
And the holy spirit is shouting to you, open the gates.
00:18:20.758 --> 00:18:24.495
Let me in, get outta this relationship.
00:18:24.495 --> 00:18:27.865
Stop wasting your life.
00:18:27.865 --> 00:18:29.400
Are there any daughters who know what i'm talking about
00:18:29.400 --> 00:18:32.537
When the lord has spoken to you and say, you are mine.
00:18:32.537 --> 00:18:36.007
Your mine. you're mine. so here's what we do.
00:18:36.007 --> 00:18:40.845
We have these caesarea philippi situa.
00:18:41.679 --> 00:18:44.982
We have these locked doors
00:18:44.982 --> 00:18:46.851
And we bring jesus into the living room
00:18:46.851 --> 00:18:48.719
Where everything's nice,
00:18:48.719 --> 00:18:50.388
But we never let him into the basement.
00:18:50.388 --> 00:18:53.891
This is how we live our life and,
00:18:54.625 --> 00:18:56.994
And we, we just, we have rooms full of trauma rooms full
00:18:56.994 --> 00:19:00.965
Of pain rooms full of min of memories, rooms full of shame
00:19:00.965 --> 00:19:05.736
And things that people don't even know about.
00:19:05.736 --> 00:19:08.539
And we don't ever let him in.
00:19:08.539 --> 00:19:10.875
And man,
00:19:10.875 --> 00:19:14.912
If you've been following this teaching series,
00:19:15.846 --> 00:19:18.382
It's like we can have jesus at capernaum,
00:19:18.382 --> 00:19:21.686
But we don't know jesus of caesarea philippi.
00:19:21.686 --> 00:19:24.589
We know jesus the healer.
00:19:25.156 --> 00:19:26.857
We know jesus the deliverer,
00:19:26.857 --> 00:19:28.726
But we don't allow him to enter into those locked rooms.
00:19:28.726 --> 00:19:34.065
But jesus, he'll show up if you invite him.
00:19:34.999 --> 00:19:37.201
Somebody said, i'm not hiding from hell.
00:19:37.201 --> 00:19:39.303
I'm not hiding from hell. there's something about that.
00:19:39.303 --> 00:19:42.640
So i want you to stand your feet with me.
00:19:42.640 --> 00:19:47.278
There's no cave too dark. there's no trauma too deep.
00:19:48.379 --> 00:19:52.650
There's no memory. too painful.
00:19:52.650 --> 00:19:54.919
There's no place in your life where jesus looks
00:19:54.919 --> 00:19:57.121
And says, now that's too messy for me.
00:19:57.121 --> 00:19:59.924
He took on the literal gates of hell so that he could speak
00:20:01.092 --> 00:20:04.362
To the metaphorical gates of hades in our own hearts.
00:20:04.362 --> 00:20:08.599
He invaded sin, he invaded death. he invaded hell itself.
00:20:08.599 --> 00:20:13.271
This is one of my favorite verses in the entire bible.
00:20:13.271 --> 00:20:16.641
Colossians chapter two, verse 15 says,
00:20:16.641 --> 00:20:18.909
Jesus disarmed the rulers and authorities
00:20:18.909 --> 00:20:22.480
And put them to open shame
00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:24.949
By triumphing over them in him.
00:20:24.949 --> 00:20:27.918
This is what happens. the devil wants to shame you.
00:20:27.918 --> 00:20:32.223
He knows that jesus has already conquered them
00:20:32.223 --> 00:20:35.760
And shamed them openly and publicly.
00:20:35.760 --> 00:20:38.596
So the only shame you experience is the shame you receive.
00:20:38.596 --> 00:20:42.300
Come on. the only shame you experience is
00:20:42.300 --> 00:20:44.802
The shame you receive.
00:20:44.802 --> 00:20:46.070
Another verse says that he will give you double
00:20:46.070 --> 00:20:48.539
For your shame.
00:20:48.539 --> 00:20:50.107
And i believe that god is about to exchange some shame.
00:20:50.107 --> 00:20:53.277
Some of you, some of you have been feeling shameful
00:20:53.277 --> 00:20:57.648
For mistakes that you've made in the past.
00:20:57.648 --> 00:20:59.684
You've been feeling shameful
00:20:59.684 --> 00:21:00.818
For bad decisions that you've made.
00:21:00.818 --> 00:21:02.820
But i believe the lord wants to exchange that shame.
00:21:02.820 --> 00:21:05.656
If you'll open up your gates.
00:21:05.656 --> 00:21:07.792
So if you're with me right now
00:21:07.792 --> 00:21:09.160
And you feel him standing at the door, i want you
00:21:09.160 --> 00:21:11.962
To let him in.
00:21:11.962 --> 00:21:13.397
I want you to invite him in.
00:21:13.397 --> 00:21:14.899
Would you if you want to, if you will,
00:21:14.899 --> 00:21:16.667
You lift your hands towards heaven right now as a sign
00:21:16.667 --> 00:21:19.637
Of total surrender.
00:21:19.637 --> 00:21:21.038
This, this is what happened at caesarea philippi,
00:21:21.038 --> 00:21:25.109
And we're gonna do this together.
00:21:25.843 --> 00:21:27.645
When jesus asked peter, who do you say i am?
00:21:27.645 --> 00:21:31.015
He got to know the real jesus.
00:21:31.015 --> 00:21:32.917
Peter says, you are the christ, you are the savior.
00:21:32.917 --> 00:21:36.287
But when you know that you jesus,
00:21:36.287 --> 00:21:38.556
Jesus will always reveal you who you really are,
00:21:38.556 --> 00:21:42.259
He'll reveal the true you to you.
00:21:42.259 --> 00:21:44.595
So when you, jesus, i now know who you are,
00:21:44.595 --> 00:21:48.366
Then he'll flip it on you
00:21:48.366 --> 00:21:49.734
And say, i'm gonna reveal who you really are.
00:21:49.734 --> 00:21:52.770
And the world will say, go find yourself.
00:21:52.770 --> 00:21:55.172
But the scriptures say, go lose your life
00:21:55.172 --> 00:21:57.641
And then you will find it.
00:21:57.641 --> 00:21:59.176
And so when you lift your hands, you're saying, god,
00:21:59.176 --> 00:22:01.946
I'm not trying to find myself.
00:22:01.946 --> 00:22:04.348
I'm trying to find you jesus.
00:22:04.348 --> 00:22:06.784
And when you know the true jesus, he'll flip the script
00:22:06.784 --> 00:22:10.087
And reveal who you truly are.
00:22:10.087 --> 00:22:12.390
And you say, god,
00:22:12.390 --> 00:22:13.758
Let my life be a drink offering before you.
00:22:13.758 --> 00:22:17.027
I pour it out, let my life be a wasted life of sacrifice,
00:22:17.027 --> 00:22:21.932
A wasted drink offering in your service.
00:22:21.932 --> 00:22:25.102
And then god says, now
00:22:25.102 --> 00:22:27.238
That you've lost your life, you found it.
00:22:27.238 --> 00:22:30.040
Open the gate all the way. what does that mean?
00:22:31.041 --> 00:22:34.712
God, this time i'm not having any reservations this time.
00:22:34.712 --> 00:22:39.350
It's, it's, it's only what you said.
00:22:39.350 --> 00:22:41.952
'cause a lot of discipleship is my,
00:22:41.952 --> 00:22:44.822
And once the devil is the easiest thing.
00:22:44.822 --> 00:22:46.757
And i think that's when he said not even the
00:22:46.757 --> 00:22:48.092
Gates of hell will prevail.
00:22:48.092 --> 00:22:49.460
But peter, who do you say i'm?
00:22:49.460 --> 00:22:51.028
Because it's easier for him to defeat the devil than it is
00:22:51.028 --> 00:22:54.064
To conquer our will.
00:22:54.064 --> 00:22:56.133
That's why the most powerful thing a man can do is surrender
00:22:57.301 --> 00:23:00.905
His will to the father.
00:23:00.905 --> 00:23:02.506
Because this is the thing that he gave us
00:23:03.407 --> 00:23:05.643
That we give back to him.
00:23:05.643 --> 00:23:07.645
Lord, i could do whatever i want,
00:23:07.645 --> 00:23:09.346
But i choose to serve you fully.
00:23:09.346 --> 00:23:13.484
Then when you come into alignment with what i just said,
00:23:14.585 --> 00:23:17.021
Then you have all of the power
00:23:17.021 --> 00:23:18.689
And resources of heaven flowing through you,
00:23:18.689 --> 00:23:21.659
Flowing through your life.
00:23:21.659 --> 00:23:23.627
My life has become something far
00:23:23.627 --> 00:23:26.964
Beyond my wildest imagination.
00:23:26.964 --> 00:23:29.400
When i had a single mother
00:23:29.400 --> 00:23:30.935
And on welfare, i'm the oldest of five kids, we used
00:23:30.935 --> 00:23:33.871
To say this scripture to each other over and over again
00:23:33.871 --> 00:23:36.707
Because we made a covenant to each other
00:23:36.707 --> 00:23:39.076
That we were gonna make it out.
00:23:39.076 --> 00:23:41.278
It was so dark.
00:23:41.278 --> 00:23:42.746
You guys couldn't even imagine how dark my life was.
00:23:42.746 --> 00:23:44.949
And my mother and i, we were the first
00:23:44.949 --> 00:23:46.784
To get this revelation of what christianity,
00:23:46.784 --> 00:23:49.353
What this faith really is.
00:23:49.353 --> 00:23:51.455
And we, we made a covenant to each other.
00:23:51.455 --> 00:23:53.557
We're gonna get out. and the covenant
00:23:53.557 --> 00:23:55.059
That we made is we're gonna be moses and joshua
00:23:55.059 --> 00:23:57.761
And you're gonna be the moses
00:23:57.761 --> 00:23:59.330
That doesn't die when you see joshua going to the promise.
00:23:59.330 --> 00:24:02.399
And so this is, we just bonded to each other that that,
00:24:02.399 --> 00:24:06.136
And here's the scripture we used to say
00:24:06.136 --> 00:24:07.705
To each other for years and years.
00:24:07.705 --> 00:24:09.406
No matter how dark it got, i whew.
00:24:09.406 --> 00:24:11.775
I feel the anointing on this 'cause you need to steal this.
00:24:11.775 --> 00:24:14.979
Eye has not seen
00:24:14.979 --> 00:24:17.081
Nor ear heard, neither has it entered into the heart of man
00:24:17.081 --> 00:24:21.819
That which he has prepared for us.
00:24:21.819 --> 00:24:24.822
And we would say that over and over again.
00:24:24.822 --> 00:24:28.025
Eye has not seen
00:24:28.025 --> 00:24:29.627
Nor ear heard, neither has it entered into the heart of man,
00:24:29.627 --> 00:24:33.197
That which god has prepared.
00:24:33.197 --> 00:24:34.732
Every time we couldn't pay our rent every single time.
00:24:34.732 --> 00:24:37.768
There was more trauma.
00:24:37.768 --> 00:24:39.069
Every single time we went to bed hungry.
00:24:39.069 --> 00:24:41.171
'cause there was not enough money for food.
00:24:41.171 --> 00:24:42.973
Eye has not seen
00:24:42.973 --> 00:24:44.575
Nor ear heard, neither has it entered into the heart of man
00:24:44.575 --> 00:24:48.078
That which he's prepared.
00:24:48.078 --> 00:24:49.446
In other words, god has prepared something for us.
00:24:49.446 --> 00:24:52.049
We may not have received it yet, but it's on the way.
00:24:52.049 --> 00:24:55.152
We may not have seen it yet, but i am gonna see it one day.
00:24:55.152 --> 00:24:58.822
I may not have heard it yet, but i am gonna hear it one day.
00:24:58.822 --> 00:25:01.759
And my mother was in
00:25:01.759 --> 00:25:03.060
That movie across 2000 theaters in the usa
00:25:03.060 --> 00:25:05.396
And single mothers dream bigger.
00:25:05.396 --> 00:25:07.898
I told her mom, eye has not seen nor ear heard neither.
00:25:07.898 --> 00:25:12.002
Come on, you have not preached your best sermon.
00:25:12.002 --> 00:25:15.205
You have not sang your best song.
00:25:15.205 --> 00:25:17.441
You have not lived your best day.
00:25:17.441 --> 00:25:19.476
Eye has not seen you are not done.
00:25:19.476 --> 00:25:21.812
Get back up, get back up, get back up. get back up.
00:25:21.812 --> 00:25:27.151
In a few moments, i wanna pray for you.
00:25:28.018 --> 00:25:29.420
You know i've seen medically verifiable miracles
00:25:29.420 --> 00:25:31.522
All around the world.
00:25:31.522 --> 00:25:32.823
I wanna pray for you. i,
00:25:32.823 --> 00:25:34.525
I've actually seen people delivered from demons in moments.
00:25:34.525 --> 00:25:37.494
But the greatest miracle is salvation.
00:25:37.494 --> 00:25:39.863
It's when someone who's dead in their sin, literally headed
00:25:39.863 --> 00:25:43.233
To hell, is saved by jesus christ and made to be alive
00:25:43.233 --> 00:25:47.738
And headed to heaven.
00:25:47.738 --> 00:25:49.239
And that can happen if you do what romans chapter 10,
00:25:49.239 --> 00:25:51.976
Verse nine says, confess with your mouth,
00:25:51.976 --> 00:25:54.378
Believe in your heart and you will be saved.
00:25:54.378 --> 00:25:56.780
It's that we don't earn it. we don't deserve it.
00:25:56.780 --> 00:25:59.249
We just receive it.
00:25:59.249 --> 00:26:00.884
So i want you to repeat these words with me
00:26:00.884 --> 00:26:03.320
Because i don't believe in accidents
00:26:03.320 --> 00:26:04.822
And the holy spirit's been drawing you.
00:26:04.822 --> 00:26:06.824
Say it with me. heavenly father, i thank you for the cross
00:26:06.824 --> 00:26:10.894
Where my sins were forgiven.
00:26:10.894 --> 00:26:13.163
Wash me with your blood. i am a disciple.
00:26:13.163 --> 00:26:17.167
I surrender my life completely
00:26:17.167 --> 00:26:19.436
And i will follow you on the narrow road in jesus' name.
00:26:19.436 --> 00:26:23.974
Come on, say it boldly. amen.
00:26:23.974 --> 00:26:26.343
Well, i'm so glad that you just made that decision
00:26:26.343 --> 00:26:28.812
To give your life to jesus.
00:26:28.812 --> 00:26:30.314
I would actually like to help you on your
00:26:30.314 --> 00:26:32.216
Journey as a disciple.
00:26:32.216 --> 00:26:33.817
And if you scan the qr code,
00:26:33.817 --> 00:26:35.419
We will immediately send you a free prayer guide
00:26:35.419 --> 00:26:39.089
That will actually give you access to prayers for anxiety
00:26:39.089 --> 00:26:42.526
And just different physical conditions you
00:26:42.526 --> 00:26:44.928
Might be struggling with.
00:26:44.928 --> 00:26:46.063
And it's a great resource and a tool.
00:26:46.063 --> 00:26:48.532
As a matter of fact, we also have prayer team members
00:26:48.532 --> 00:26:50.968
That are standing by waiting for you to reach out.
00:26:50.968 --> 00:26:53.504
Now. i'll see you in the next episode.
00:26:53.504 --> 00:26:56.540
- jesus said in matthew seven, narrow is the gate
00:26:57.541 --> 00:27:01.045
And difficult is the way that leads to life.
00:27:01.045 --> 00:27:04.214
In a world that celebrates compromise, god calls us
00:27:04.214 --> 00:27:07.685
To live set apart, to walk the narrow way with courage,
00:27:07.685 --> 00:27:12.322
Conviction, and faith.
00:27:12.322 --> 00:27:14.825
