| Mike Signorelli - Living Spirit-Filled The Key To True Freedom | October 1, 2025

How many people claim to get saved?
00:00:00.263 --> 00:00:02.999
But their cravings never change.
00:00:02.999 --> 00:00:05.435
You can scroll on your phone
00:00:05.435 --> 00:00:07.203
For four hours, but you can't spend four minutes in prayer.
00:00:07.203 --> 00:00:11.207
Something's gotta change because you say, if it was about me,
00:00:12.375 --> 00:00:14.744
I would keep scrolling.
00:00:14.744 --> 00:00:16.146
But it's about this density.
00:00:16.146 --> 00:00:17.914
So let me destroy.
00:00:17.914 --> 00:00:19.582
Oh, come on, somebody.
00:00:19.582 --> 00:00:27.257
Oh. you know, there's
00:00:27.757 --> 00:00:33.029
Really only about three types of people that you're going to encounter in life.
00:00:34.597 --> 00:00:37.100
And each and every one of you will have to make a decision.
00:00:38.301 --> 00:00:39.736
Which one of these three people you will be?
00:00:39.736 --> 00:00:43.306
And the first person that kind of sits in this seat.
00:00:44.340 --> 00:00:47.277
This this person, if you're taking notes, this is the natural person.
00:00:48.645 --> 00:00:51.548
This is the self directed life.
00:00:52.182 --> 00:00:55.251
Matter of fact, if you're in church right now
00:00:56.186 --> 00:00:58.021
And you're watching this, you probably aren't one of these people.
00:00:58.021 --> 00:01:01.424
But you work with these people.
00:01:02.058 --> 00:01:03.159
You go to school with these people.
00:01:03.159 --> 00:01:04.961
These people are your family members that you see a couple of times
00:01:04.961 --> 00:01:07.831
A year, you know, when you have holidays together.
00:01:07.831 --> 00:01:11.234
So these people, they have not received jesus christ.
00:01:12.302 --> 00:01:14.904
They have not received him.
00:01:15.505 --> 00:01:17.107
As a matter of fact, self is on the throne and self directs
00:01:17.107 --> 00:01:20.910
All their decisions and actions, and often it results in frustration.
00:01:20.910 --> 00:01:25.815
I'm going to read a verse, first corinthians chapter two, verse 14,
00:01:27.150 --> 00:01:30.954
And it says, the natural person does not accept
00:01:31.888 --> 00:01:34.591
The things of the spirit of god for their folly to him,
00:01:34.591 --> 00:01:38.895
And he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned.
00:01:40.430 --> 00:01:44.100
Now, if you look at first corinthians chapter two, verse 14,
00:01:45.335 --> 00:01:48.805
This word folly, everybody say folly, okay, it means foolishness.
00:01:50.140 --> 00:01:54.277
But i want to go deeper.
00:01:54.777 --> 00:01:55.945
Can i go deep? today is all right.
00:01:55.945 --> 00:01:58.348
Okay.
00:01:58.348 --> 00:02:00.016
Foolishness in the original language means being ridiculously
00:02:00.016 --> 00:02:03.653
Or wildly unreasonable.
00:02:04.154 --> 00:02:08.358
So what this means is, you know,
00:02:08.992 --> 00:02:10.927
These people, they're living their life and they're just trying to get by.
00:02:10.927 --> 00:02:14.731
You know, i know that you don't have anybody smoking marijuana
00:02:15.899 --> 00:02:18.635
Here in michigan, but in new york, we have that problem.
00:02:18.635 --> 00:02:22.038
And these people are good people, but they use it to get by,
00:02:23.306 --> 00:02:26.142
And it's thc and caffeine and nicotine and and when they're driving to work,
00:02:26.142 --> 00:02:30.446
They turn the music up real loud and they're just trying to survive.
00:02:30.446 --> 00:02:34.217
Wanna rock n roll all night.
00:02:34.817 --> 00:02:37.587
Oh, you guys probably know that song and party
00:02:37.587 --> 00:02:40.523
Every day.
00:02:40.523 --> 00:02:43.793
Okay.
00:02:44.027 --> 00:02:45.328
Only a few old school rock n rollers here.
00:02:45.328 --> 00:02:47.197
Probably.
00:02:47.497 --> 00:02:48.398
You all are beyonce fans,
00:02:48.398 --> 00:02:50.967
And so, you know, they turn up the music and they're just trying to survive.
00:02:52.468 --> 00:02:55.138
You know, it's
00:02:55.138 --> 00:02:56.906
It's as many physical experience that you can create at the same time.
00:02:56.906 --> 00:03:00.143
So taste, touch, smell, it's everything through their physical being.
00:03:00.143 --> 00:03:04.247
And it's like how high can i get?
00:03:04.981 --> 00:03:06.382
How drunk can i get, how loud can the music get?
00:03:06.382 --> 00:03:08.484
And i just have to survive all of the pain and anxiety and depression
00:03:08.484 --> 00:03:13.022
And brokenness of this life.
00:03:13.623 --> 00:03:14.591
And i am in control. you
00:03:14.591 --> 00:03:17.360
Know the thing about
00:03:17.827 --> 00:03:19.696
First corinthians chapter two, verse 14, it says the natural person.
00:03:19.696 --> 00:03:22.699
They do not accept the things of the spirit of god, for they are foolishness.
00:03:22.699 --> 00:03:26.569
Their absolutely ridiculous.
00:03:26.569 --> 00:03:28.738
It's unreasonable and wildly unreasonable.
00:03:28.738 --> 00:03:32.308
So the fact that you woke up today to go
00:03:33.176 --> 00:03:35.144
To church on a day you didn't have to go to work,
00:03:35.144 --> 00:03:38.448
And you decided to take a shower and put on nice clothes
00:03:39.549 --> 00:03:42.252
And come here is wildly unreasonable to them.
00:03:43.186 --> 00:03:45.455
And as a matter of fact, this christmas, when you're with them,
00:03:46.756 --> 00:03:48.758
They might even tell you how crazy you are for giving
00:03:48.758 --> 00:03:51.861
Your finances to the local church.
00:03:51.861 --> 00:03:55.231
Now, never mind the fact that they spend their money on weed, alcohol, thc,
00:03:56.699 --> 00:04:00.303
Never mind the fact that they give huge portions of their money to panera bread
00:04:01.871 --> 00:04:04.374
And to the local applebee's.
00:04:04.974 --> 00:04:06.376
But heaven forbid you support the local church.
00:04:06.376 --> 00:04:08.878
Oh come on, we're going to get sassy today.
00:04:09.779 --> 00:04:13.082
We're going to faithful are the wounds of a friend.
00:04:14.117 --> 00:04:16.786
I would rather cut you with the truth and kiss you with a lie.
00:04:16.786 --> 00:04:19.889
Amen.
00:04:19.889 --> 00:04:21.791
And if money doesn't it reveal that they're in this seat, that they're mad
00:04:21.791 --> 00:04:25.295
At you for giving your money to the church, but they support
00:04:25.295 --> 00:04:28.364
Bud light?
00:04:28.364 --> 00:04:32.268
Okay, i'm amongst friends.
00:04:32.835 --> 00:04:36.105
But this is a natural person.
00:04:36.739 --> 00:04:38.508
So when you give your finances, that's a spiritual decision.
00:04:38.508 --> 00:04:42.145
And it says it's wildly unreasonable to them.
00:04:43.046 --> 00:04:44.580
Some of you are serving on teams today and you say, i'm
00:04:44.580 --> 00:04:48.384
Not only am i going to go to church, but i'm going to stay extra long and serve.
00:04:48.384 --> 00:04:53.489
They're like, you are crazy, you're a psychopath.
00:04:54.524 --> 00:04:57.927
And some of these people have great hearts.
00:04:58.795 --> 00:05:01.497
They want to do the right thing, but they're lost.
00:05:01.497 --> 00:05:04.934
Okay, many of you here are like, okay, pastor mike, that's not me.
00:05:06.269 --> 00:05:07.704
I'm not that person.
00:05:07.704 --> 00:05:09.405
Well, maybe you're the next person.
00:05:09.405 --> 00:05:12.308
Okay, now don't get too excited yet.
00:05:12.308 --> 00:05:15.578
This is the carnal person.
00:05:16.145 --> 00:05:17.980
Now, this is a carnal christian, though.
00:05:17.980 --> 00:05:21.651
And this. okay. no.
00:05:22.118 --> 00:05:23.486
Am i your friend?
00:05:23.486 --> 00:05:25.288
Do you promise to still love me when this is over?
00:05:25.288 --> 00:05:28.224
Because some of you might be like, pastor dwayne, please don't ever bring him back.
00:05:28.224 --> 00:05:32.895
This is a carnal christian,
00:05:33.496 --> 00:05:35.064
And the reality is, most of you are sitting in this seat.
00:05:35.064 --> 00:05:39.001
Now, i say that out of love.
00:05:39.602 --> 00:05:41.104
I know my name is mike signoret.
00:05:41.104 --> 00:05:42.472
You can call me papa cigs right now,
00:05:42.472 --> 00:05:44.841
Because i'm going to have to give you some uncomfortable truths.
00:05:46.175 --> 00:05:48.077
But i'm doing it in love.
00:05:48.077 --> 00:05:50.546
And the carnal christian, this is one who's received christ,
00:05:50.546 --> 00:05:54.684
But they live in defeat because he's trying to live here.
00:05:55.818 --> 00:05:58.588
She's trying to live that christian life in their own strengths.
00:05:59.889 --> 00:06:02.291
So jesus is in their life, but not on the throne.
00:06:03.292 --> 00:06:07.263
Self is on the throne and self is directing the decisions
00:06:08.398 --> 00:06:11.167
And actions, and it often results in frustration.
00:06:11.167 --> 00:06:15.037
Okay, i got a verse for you.
00:06:15.638 --> 00:06:17.340
First corinthians, chapter three, first corinthians, chapter
00:06:17.340 --> 00:06:19.642
Three, verse one through three.
00:06:19.642 --> 00:06:22.645
And i, brethren, i could not speak to you as spiritual men, but it's okay.
00:06:22.645 --> 00:06:27.984
Can i read it the way that i think the apostle wrote it?
00:06:29.118 --> 00:06:31.854
Because because, you know, the older i get and i've got a 16 year old here, bella.
00:06:33.456 --> 00:06:36.292
And, you know, when you have teenagers and i pastor a multi-site church
00:06:36.292 --> 00:06:39.996
And i'm raising up leaders and pastors, i started reading the bible differently.
00:06:39.996 --> 00:06:43.699
So i'm going to read a familiar passage with an unfamiliar revelation.
00:06:45.067 --> 00:06:48.671
And i, brethren,
00:06:49.038 --> 00:06:50.406
I couldn't speak to you a spiritual man.
00:06:50.406 --> 00:06:53.743
But as to men of the flesh, as infants,
00:06:54.577 --> 00:06:56.712
Widow babies in christ,
00:06:56.712 --> 00:06:59.982
I gave you milk to drink,
00:07:00.550 --> 00:07:02.084
Not solid food, for you were not able to receive it.
00:07:02.084 --> 00:07:05.555
Indeed, even though you're not yet able.
00:07:06.422 --> 00:07:08.825
I have a 16 year old.
00:07:09.325 --> 00:07:10.927
You're not ready to drive a car.
00:07:10.927 --> 00:07:13.663
I can't even trust you with a cell phone.
00:07:13.663 --> 00:07:16.933
You're just a widdle teenager.
00:07:17.567 --> 00:07:18.935
Bella, do you hear the language?
00:07:18.935 --> 00:07:22.271
I want to give you a car, but i have to learn to trust you
00:07:23.372 --> 00:07:25.775
With other things first, you need to clean your room first.
00:07:25.775 --> 00:07:30.379
See the apostle.
00:07:30.746 --> 00:07:32.181
He's speaking to the church and he's saying,
00:07:32.181 --> 00:07:35.117
I want to entrust you more, but i can't.
00:07:35.117 --> 00:07:38.688
Now watch this.
00:07:39.055 --> 00:07:40.022
We're going to go there, okay?
00:07:40.022 --> 00:07:41.390
Because i feel like y'all are ready for this.
00:07:41.390 --> 00:07:42.959
Indeed, even now, you're not able, for you are still fleshly.
00:07:42.959 --> 00:07:47.730
Say the word fleshly.
00:07:47.730 --> 00:07:50.066
Why? for
00:07:50.333 --> 00:07:51.634
Since there is jealousy and strife among you,
00:07:51.634 --> 00:07:54.871
Are you not fleshly and are you not walking like mere men?
00:07:56.038 --> 00:07:59.308
Oh, this is so good!
00:07:59.775 --> 00:08:01.611
In churches all across america, we have made the milk and the meat.
00:08:01.611 --> 00:08:06.182
How intellectually profound and articulate and deep can you how much?
00:08:07.583 --> 00:08:11.254
Greek, hebrew,
00:08:11.254 --> 00:08:13.155
Aramaic, an authorial intent and historic background can you give us?
00:08:13.155 --> 00:08:15.691
That's the meat of the word.
00:08:15.691 --> 00:08:18.294
No, that's not the meat of the word.
00:08:18.294 --> 00:08:20.863
And people have even left churches and then said, i'm going to another church
00:08:20.863 --> 00:08:24.567
Because this church doesn't teach the meat.
00:08:24.567 --> 00:08:27.169
You know what's so ironic about people who say that they're taking that scripture
00:08:27.169 --> 00:08:31.674
Out of context to say that you can't leave this church saying, well,
00:08:31.674 --> 00:08:36.512
We don't teach the meat of the word, because according to the apostle,
00:08:37.914 --> 00:08:39.815
The meat of the word is not how articulately you communicated
00:08:41.017 --> 00:08:44.787
And what kind of verbal linguistic gymnastics you can do with the language.
00:08:46.289 --> 00:08:49.191
And while people, the meat of the word is how obedient to the spirit you are.
00:08:49.191 --> 00:08:54.530
And so if you are surrendered and submitted
00:08:55.464 --> 00:08:57.700
To jesus christ, to the person of the holy spirit,
00:08:57.700 --> 00:09:01.137
Living a spirit filled life, now you are living the meat.
00:09:02.271 --> 00:09:04.840
Does that make sense?
00:09:05.341 --> 00:09:06.976
And so,
00:09:07.209 --> 00:09:09.045
Because this is what it says first, since there's jealousy and strife
00:09:09.045 --> 00:09:11.747
Among you, are you not fleshly and are you not walking like mere man?
00:09:11.747 --> 00:09:16.352
And so milk and meat.
00:09:16.852 --> 00:09:18.154
It's not deep preaching and shallow preaching.
00:09:18.154 --> 00:09:20.423
It's spirit led living or carnal living.
00:09:20.423 --> 00:09:23.993
Oh come on, we're going there today.
00:09:24.760 --> 00:09:27.897
Because the carnal christians,
00:09:28.531 --> 00:09:29.966
They're no different than the unsaved people.
00:09:29.966 --> 00:09:33.336
See, what happens is the carnal christian
00:09:34.203 --> 00:09:35.972
Who's sitting in this seat, they're turning their music up to,
00:09:35.972 --> 00:09:39.308
And they're saying, i need this music to get by.
00:09:39.308 --> 00:09:41.577
I'm no longer slaves of fear, and they're just turning their music off.
00:09:41.577 --> 00:09:46.115
And then the person over here who's not a
00:09:47.016 --> 00:09:48.384
Christian is like, i want to rock n roll all night.
00:09:48.384 --> 00:09:51.520
And they're saying, oh, i understand why you're doing that.
00:09:52.755 --> 00:09:53.689
We're doing the same thing.
00:09:53.689 --> 00:09:55.858
And you're telling them, oh, no, no, no, you can't sing that music.
00:09:55.858 --> 00:09:58.861
You got to sing our music.
00:09:58.861 --> 00:10:00.730
And they're saying, well, your music makes you feel better,
00:10:00.730 --> 00:10:04.100
And my music makes me feel better.
00:10:04.867 --> 00:10:05.801
So what's the difference?
00:10:05.801 --> 00:10:08.104
Oh, come on.
00:10:08.437 --> 00:10:10.139
Oh, i'm going there today.
00:10:10.139 --> 00:10:12.141
And then this person says, oh, you know, your unsaved friend.
00:10:12.141 --> 00:10:15.611
They say, well, you have your church.
00:10:16.412 --> 00:10:18.748
I have the coladas, the key club, the local ymca.
00:10:19.782 --> 00:10:22.652
I have a community.
00:10:23.119 --> 00:10:25.755
There's a lot of communities out there.
00:10:26.555 --> 00:10:28.324
Oh, help me, lord, help me preach this.
00:10:28.324 --> 00:10:30.559
I have aa, i have you have your group and i have my group.
00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:35.031
What you're doing is no different than what i'm doing.
00:10:36.132 --> 00:10:38.167
And then you say, no, no, but the church, it's different.
00:10:39.301 --> 00:10:41.437
The church, it's special.
00:10:41.437 --> 00:10:43.139
We should all come together.
00:10:43.139 --> 00:10:44.607
We should worship and sing these songs.
00:10:44.607 --> 00:10:46.442
And they're saying, yeah, we did that at the taylor swift concert.
00:10:46.442 --> 00:10:50.913
You give your tithes and offering, we buy tickets.
00:10:51.947 --> 00:10:55.217
It's the same thing.
00:10:55.685 --> 00:10:56.986
Oh, come on, do y'all still love me?
00:10:56.986 --> 00:11:01.290
Okay.
00:11:01.524 --> 00:11:02.158
Now watch.
00:11:02.158 --> 00:11:03.693
And i, brethren, could not speak to you as spiritual men,
00:11:03.693 --> 00:11:07.329
But as to men of flesh, as infants in christ.
00:11:08.264 --> 00:11:11.267
I gave you milk to drink, not solid food, for
00:11:12.234 --> 00:11:14.236
You were not yet able to receive it.
00:11:14.236 --> 00:11:17.239
And so many churches across america, we have people that are
00:11:17.239 --> 00:11:21.777
Still milk christians, not because our worship is not good.
00:11:21.777 --> 00:11:26.182
We have the best production.
00:11:26.782 --> 00:11:27.750
We've ever had in human history.
00:11:27.750 --> 00:11:30.119
Not because our sermons aren't amazing.
00:11:30.119 --> 00:11:32.188
We have the best communicators in human history.
00:11:32.188 --> 00:11:35.558
It's because we don't know the things of the spirit.
00:11:36.592 --> 00:11:39.995
We've taken the spiritual things
00:11:40.629 --> 00:11:42.965
And we've dialed them in and made them as carnal as possible.
00:11:42.965 --> 00:11:46.402
And the people of the world are saying, i don't want that.
00:11:46.402 --> 00:11:48.604
It's not attractive to me.
00:11:48.604 --> 00:11:50.439
If you're near one of our campuses, i want to give you
00:11:50.439 --> 00:11:53.476
A personal invitation to check out v1 church.
00:11:53.476 --> 00:11:57.513
There's no way i can describe the atmos year of revival in the experience.
00:11:58.981 --> 00:12:02.118
If you've never driven up or driven in, you know,
00:12:03.119 --> 00:12:05.654
Let me just tell you it's a powerful atmosphere
00:12:06.622 --> 00:12:08.457
And a bunch of people who really love the lord and want to get to know you.
00:12:08.457 --> 00:12:12.394
So let us know when you're coming and i'll see you at v1 church.
00:12:12.394 --> 00:12:20.436
What?
00:12:20.669 --> 00:12:21.370
What must we do?
00:12:21.370 --> 00:12:22.838
What's the next level?
00:12:22.838 --> 00:12:24.406
We must learn how to operate in the spiritual realm.
00:12:24.406 --> 00:12:27.643
Let me tell you a story.
00:12:28.144 --> 00:12:29.111
From when i was a teenager.
00:12:29.111 --> 00:12:30.813
I remember my mom.
00:12:30.813 --> 00:12:32.648
She's a single mom with five kids, and she raised us, and we we struggled.
00:12:32.648 --> 00:12:37.353
She got married multiple times to what became abusive stepfather.
00:12:38.654 --> 00:12:41.891
And so my childhood was spent between a trailer park in south
00:12:43.092 --> 00:12:45.694
Chicago and, you know, just subsidized housing, housing in northwest indiana.
00:12:45.694 --> 00:12:49.965
And i remember, we were just trying to survive, and we weren't these people.
00:12:49.965 --> 00:12:55.304
But i think in a lot of ways we were these people.
00:12:56.338 --> 00:12:58.107
And my mom said, well,
00:12:58.107 --> 00:13:00.075
We got to go to church every week because that's going to help our family.
00:13:00.075 --> 00:13:02.344
But then all of a sudden we started learning the supernatural.
00:13:03.579 --> 00:13:05.548
And when we started learning the supernatural on how to live
00:13:06.715 --> 00:13:08.317
A spirit filled life, things begin to change.
00:13:08.317 --> 00:13:11.320
And i remember my mother.
00:13:11.320 --> 00:13:13.122
She got a diagnosis and i was a teenager, and the diagnosis she got
00:13:13.122 --> 00:13:17.426
Was that she had tumors and cysts and that she needed to go into a surgery,
00:13:18.961 --> 00:13:21.430
And they were going to remove the tumors and says,
00:13:22.431 --> 00:13:23.532
And she was going to be bedridden.
00:13:23.532 --> 00:13:25.334
And then that meant that our family was not going to have any provider.
00:13:25.334 --> 00:13:28.938
And you all know what happens next in those situations.
00:13:30.072 --> 00:13:32.007
And so i remember saying, oh, lord, we're going to lose our place
00:13:33.309 --> 00:13:36.445
Where we stay, we're going to lose our house.
00:13:37.379 --> 00:13:38.647
Everything's going to be really, really bad.
00:13:38.647 --> 00:13:40.216
We need a miracle.
00:13:40.216 --> 00:13:42.184
How many of you know that impossible situations will force you to move out
00:13:42.184 --> 00:13:45.154
From being a carnal christian to a christian, led by the holy spirit?
00:13:45.154 --> 00:13:50.492
There's an
00:13:50.793 --> 00:13:52.494
Activation that happens, you know, in those types of situations.
00:13:52.494 --> 00:13:54.597
And i said, oh god,
00:13:54.597 --> 00:13:56.398
This is truly a test of what i believe and what i don't believe.
00:13:56.398 --> 00:13:59.134
So something begin to rise up inside of me as a teenager.
00:14:00.302 --> 00:14:03.005
And, we were at masonic hospital in chicago,
00:14:03.906 --> 00:14:06.475
And they were prepping my mom for the surgery,
00:14:07.376 --> 00:14:08.744
And the surgeon came to meet with us and he said,
00:14:08.744 --> 00:14:11.380
Hey, i just want to tell you, it's going to be several hours.
00:14:11.380 --> 00:14:14.717
When it's over, we'll come and get you.
00:14:15.584 --> 00:14:16.485
Won't give you an update.
00:14:16.485 --> 00:14:18.187
I looked at that doctor and i said, when you open up my mother,
00:14:18.187 --> 00:14:20.823
You will not find any tumors or any cysts.
00:14:20.823 --> 00:14:25.394
Oh, come on, you're clapping already.
00:14:26.195 --> 00:14:27.763
So there must be some spirit believers in this place.
00:14:27.763 --> 00:14:31.901
How many of you know that faith speaks and fear jumps?
00:14:32.935 --> 00:14:35.437
How many of you know that the power of life and death is in your tongue?
00:14:36.906 --> 00:14:39.141
How many of you know that spirit filled christians
00:14:40.175 --> 00:14:41.710
Know how to change an atmosphere by the words that they use?
00:14:41.710 --> 00:14:44.914
And i was just new to this.
00:14:45.514 --> 00:14:47.483
I didn't know what i was doing, and i just said, and he goes, what did you say?
00:14:47.483 --> 00:14:51.420
And i said, i said, i said, you when you open her up,
00:14:52.521 --> 00:14:55.557
You're not going to find any tumors or any cysts.
00:14:55.557 --> 00:14:58.894
Well, all of a sudden hours went by and, person who worked for the hospital
00:15:00.362 --> 00:15:03.799
Said, hey, the the surgeon wants to speak with you in another room.
00:15:03.799 --> 00:15:07.670
Well, here in america, when they take you to another room,
00:15:08.837 --> 00:15:10.406
That's often an indicator that your loved one passed away.
00:15:10.406 --> 00:15:12.875
And they want to prepare you to tell you they died.
00:15:12.875 --> 00:15:15.644
So i was immediately filled with fear.
00:15:15.644 --> 00:15:18.414
Have you ever had a moment where you say the right thing when it's time to say it,
00:15:18.414 --> 00:15:23.218
But then fear starts to creep in afterwards?
00:15:24.119 --> 00:15:26.088
See, when you're sitting in this seat, there's going to be a tug of war.
00:15:26.088 --> 00:15:29.024
That's why the bible says, i do what i don't want to do
00:15:29.024 --> 00:15:31.160
And what i don't want to do, i do.
00:15:31.160 --> 00:15:32.928
There's a tug of war in this sea between the spirit and the flesh.
00:15:32.928 --> 00:15:38.233
And see,
00:15:38.500 --> 00:15:40.502
I was in that moment where i was like, oh lord, i feel so much fear right now
00:15:40.502 --> 00:15:43.639
Thinking that they're bringing me
00:15:44.406 --> 00:15:45.941
Into this other room to console me, because my mother's has died
00:15:45.941 --> 00:15:48.978
And said, i come into the room and this doctor looks at me and he's like,
00:15:50.412 --> 00:15:53.082
Tell me again what you said to me before the surgery.
00:15:54.183 --> 00:15:56.618
And i said, well, i told you that when you open up
00:15:57.586 --> 00:15:59.455
My mother, you're not going to find any tumors or any cysts.
00:15:59.455 --> 00:16:02.791
And he goes, okay, can we take a seat?
00:16:03.625 --> 00:16:06.495
Come on.
00:16:06.762 --> 00:16:07.396
Somebody.
00:16:07.396 --> 00:16:12.067
And it was me
00:16:12.434 --> 00:16:13.702
And him and and and he's sitting in the seat
00:16:13.702 --> 00:16:17.206
And he's like, okay, i want to tell you what happened.
00:16:17.206 --> 00:16:20.576
I went to go make the standard incision where we always make an incision.
00:16:22.011 --> 00:16:24.380
And when i went to go make that incision, i heard my head nurse.
00:16:25.614 --> 00:16:28.684
The head nurse said, no, don't cut her there.
00:16:29.618 --> 00:16:30.753
You have to cut her in another spot.
00:16:30.753 --> 00:16:32.254
This other spot.
00:16:32.254 --> 00:16:33.756
And i did it.
00:16:33.756 --> 00:16:34.556
And when i did that,
00:16:34.556 --> 00:16:36.392
I realized that there was a main artery running another direction.
00:16:36.392 --> 00:16:39.361
And if i would have cut your mother in the standard way, we do all the surgeries,
00:16:40.929 --> 00:16:43.165
She would have hemorrhaged and bled out and died on the table.
00:16:43.165 --> 00:16:46.668
So then i went to my head nurse and i said, hey, thank you for that information.
00:16:48.203 --> 00:16:51.306
You really saved me today.
00:16:51.874 --> 00:16:53.442
And the nurse looked up to me and said, i never said anything.
00:16:53.442 --> 00:17:00.082
That's when they knew something was crazy.
00:17:00.983 --> 00:17:03.986
The atmosphere begins to change.
00:17:03.986 --> 00:17:05.788
Something begins to happen.
00:17:05.788 --> 00:17:07.823
There's worlds start colliding between the physical and the supernatural dimension.
00:17:07.823 --> 00:17:12.361
You probably can feel the atmosphere changing right now.
00:17:13.462 --> 00:17:15.564
Some of you are going to be healed even before this sermon is over.
00:17:16.899 --> 00:17:18.267
God's about to do something in your body.
00:17:18.267 --> 00:17:20.602
God's about to touch you.
00:17:20.602 --> 00:17:22.137
I know that you came from all over today expecting god.
00:17:22.137 --> 00:17:24.773
I feel the anointing.
00:17:24.773 --> 00:17:26.775
But then he said,
00:17:26.775 --> 00:17:28.710
I got to tell you the next thing that happened.
00:17:28.710 --> 00:17:30.813
I open up your mother and i, and he goes, you understand?
00:17:30.813 --> 00:17:34.583
I have i have all of the scans.
00:17:35.217 --> 00:17:36.718
I had, all of the information, all the data.
00:17:36.718 --> 00:17:38.620
But when i opened her up, there were no tumors and no cyst.
00:17:38.620 --> 00:17:42.524
And i had to close your mother up and send her away.
00:17:43.592 --> 00:17:46.095
Can somebody shout hallelujah?
00:17:46.095 --> 00:17:48.363
If god is good?
00:17:48.363 --> 00:17:53.902
And i said,
00:17:54.236 --> 00:17:55.637
I said, well, it was jesus christ that did that.
00:17:55.637 --> 00:17:58.073
And he said, well, i'm a muslim.
00:17:58.073 --> 00:17:59.775
You mean jesus the prophet?
00:17:59.775 --> 00:18:01.376
I said, no, jesus the messiah, the savior
00:18:01.376 --> 00:18:05.180
Of the world, not jesus the prophet.
00:18:05.180 --> 00:18:08.317
Come on, somebody shout.
00:18:08.317 --> 00:18:11.653
And i said, today, i'm going to get you a bible,
00:18:12.654 --> 00:18:14.590
And i'm coming back with a bible today for you.
00:18:14.590 --> 00:18:17.926
And i gave that muslim doctor in masonic hospital chicago,
00:18:19.094 --> 00:18:21.363
A bible and said, welcome to the winning side.
00:18:21.363 --> 00:18:28.537
This is when i started
00:18:29.037 --> 00:18:30.506
To really learn and understand that man.
00:18:30.506 --> 00:18:34.276
Let me just tell you, young people, being one of these
00:18:35.377 --> 00:18:37.813
Christians is born saying,
00:18:37.813 --> 00:18:41.250
If you don't like being a christian, you're doing it wrong.
00:18:42.451 --> 00:18:44.920
The christian life is an adventure.
00:18:45.654 --> 00:18:48.123
It's a wonderful adventure where you wake up and eugene
00:18:48.123 --> 00:18:51.693
Peterson in the message translation, he gives the translation, you.
00:18:51.693 --> 00:18:55.497
You wake up and you say, what's next, dad?
00:18:56.398 --> 00:18:58.100
What's next? papa?
00:18:58.100 --> 00:18:59.635
I mean, the life of a christian is not the life of survival.
00:18:59.635 --> 00:19:02.437
It's a life of thriving.
00:19:02.437 --> 00:19:04.206
And when we turn that music up, it's not to drown out anxiety.
00:19:04.206 --> 00:19:08.710
It's to say, in grand rapids, as it is in heaven,
00:19:09.745 --> 00:19:12.080
Hallowed be your name, your kingdom come.
00:19:12.948 --> 00:19:14.850
God, today what's going to happen on the job?
00:19:14.850 --> 00:19:17.486
Spirit break out.
00:19:17.486 --> 00:19:19.788
And carnal christians, they
00:19:20.389 --> 00:19:22.157
They simply don't understand this.
00:19:22.157 --> 00:19:25.427
They don't understand this.
00:19:26.028 --> 00:19:27.563
And i just want to tell you, if you're sitting in this seat,
00:19:27.563 --> 00:19:30.265
If you found yourself growing cold,
00:19:30.265 --> 00:19:33.001
Cynical, one of the biggest indicators that you're
00:19:33.001 --> 00:19:36.371
Sitting in this seat as you become a critic.
00:19:36.371 --> 00:19:39.374
We don't need more bloggers.
00:19:39.374 --> 00:19:41.109
We need more prophets
00:19:41.109 --> 00:19:42.678
And evangelists and shepherds and people flooding the streets.
00:19:42.678 --> 00:19:46.315
We don't need more blogs.
00:19:46.315 --> 00:19:48.150
We need more prophecies and words in the street, and we need people to rise
00:19:48.150 --> 00:19:52.087
Up. but when you're sitting in this seat, you always have a complaint.
00:19:52.087 --> 00:19:55.591
You know, i would rather be a chef than a food critic.
00:19:56.692 --> 00:19:59.394
But carnal christians, they can't understand this
00:20:00.395 --> 00:20:01.797
Because the warfare and the battle of the mind.
00:20:01.797 --> 00:20:04.466
That's why the apostle saint, i really wanted to speak to you a spiritual man.
00:20:06.001 --> 00:20:09.471
But but you're really men of flesh.
00:20:10.239 --> 00:20:11.607
You're infants in christ.
00:20:11.607 --> 00:20:12.741
And i really feel like
00:20:12.741 --> 00:20:14.576
This is a wake up call for many of you who are sitting in this seat.
00:20:14.576 --> 00:20:17.579
You know so much it's time to activate it.
00:20:18.480 --> 00:20:21.383
The joy of my salvation.
00:20:21.883 --> 00:20:24.553
Some of you have lost the joy of your salvation when you sit in this seat.
00:20:24.553 --> 00:20:30.192
Oh lord, help me.
00:20:30.626 --> 00:20:32.427
I'm going to turn this way so i don't offend you.
00:20:32.427 --> 00:20:35.764
When you sit in this see, you will exchange the joy
00:20:36.832 --> 00:20:38.834
Of your salvation for the criticisms of being a professional christian.
00:20:38.834 --> 00:20:43.972
Hey mike, cigna rally here and we're back in the studio.
00:20:45.107 --> 00:20:48.310
I have a very important message for you before we go back into the sermon,
00:20:48.310 --> 00:20:53.048
October 25th.
00:20:53.415 --> 00:20:54.916
Thousands are gathering at now arena in chicago.
00:20:54.916 --> 00:20:58.920
I want to encourage you because last year we saw medically verifiable miracles.
00:21:00.455 --> 00:21:04.226
Entire family saved many people delivered
00:21:05.127 --> 00:21:07.329
From addictions, and it was a powerful time together.
00:21:07.329 --> 00:21:10.666
And we're doing it again this year.
00:21:10.666 --> 00:21:12.834
But seats are going fast.
00:21:12.834 --> 00:21:14.936
I want to see you there in chicago.
00:21:14.936 --> 00:21:16.638
It's worth the flight.
00:21:16.638 --> 00:21:17.939
It's worth the drive in.
00:21:17.939 --> 00:21:19.541
It's the breakers conference at now arena october 25th.
00:21:19.541 --> 00:21:24.346
We actually go to breakers conference.com or scan the qr code. now.
00:21:25.714 --> 00:21:29.818
Get your tickets
00:21:30.185 --> 00:21:31.987
While there's still a few remaining, and i'll see you october 25th.
00:21:31.987 --> 00:21:35.157
I don't want to be a professional christian.
00:21:36.058 --> 00:21:38.393
I don't want to ever get better at christianity.
00:21:38.393 --> 00:21:40.796
I want to get better at being surrendered to the holy spirit.
00:21:40.796 --> 00:21:45.033
I want to
00:21:45.334 --> 00:21:47.169
Submit and surrender to him and say, god, whoever you want me to be,
00:21:47.169 --> 00:21:49.971
However you want me to live, i want to live that way.
00:21:49.971 --> 00:21:52.841
I don't ever want to be a professional.
00:21:52.841 --> 00:21:54.643
Matter of fact, for as many people as i lead to christ on the stages
00:21:54.643 --> 00:21:58.146
Of v1 church, i always go into the streets and say, god, without a piano
00:21:58.146 --> 00:22:02.751
Player behind me, can i still lead them to you?
00:22:02.751 --> 00:22:06.121
Oh, and they cussed me out in new york city.
00:22:07.022 --> 00:22:09.758
And i say, oh, i love being persecuted.
00:22:09.758 --> 00:22:13.095
I know peter doesn't respect me yet, but he will one day.
00:22:14.229 --> 00:22:16.832
Why do i say this?
00:22:17.265 --> 00:22:19.134
Because i want to move you out of this seat today.
00:22:19.134 --> 00:22:22.938
This is not why you submitted and surrendered
00:22:23.872 --> 00:22:25.907
Your life to jesus christ, to sit in this seat full of.
00:22:25.907 --> 00:22:28.910
I hope they come out with a new song.
00:22:28.910 --> 00:22:30.712
I hope bethel in upper room and hillsong come out with a new song.
00:22:30.712 --> 00:22:34.383
I hope elevation church comes out with a new song.
00:22:34.383 --> 00:22:36.651
I hope we have another conference.
00:22:36.651 --> 00:22:38.186
I hope that they hype me up with another feel good message.
00:22:38.186 --> 00:22:40.922
You did not sit in this seat because this seat is all about emotions.
00:22:40.922 --> 00:22:44.960
It's all about feeling.
00:22:44.960 --> 00:22:46.261
It's all about your mind.
00:22:46.261 --> 00:22:48.029
It's all about what you can and can experience through that realm.
00:22:48.029 --> 00:22:51.400
And it makes us not that much different than these people. but.
00:22:52.701 --> 00:22:55.303
But there's one more seed,
00:22:55.871 --> 00:22:57.372
And this is the seed
00:22:57.839 --> 00:22:59.608
That i came here today to, to to move you into the seed.
00:22:59.608 --> 00:23:03.311
And can i just tell you, when the scriptures say
00:23:03.311 --> 00:23:06.047
That broad is the road and many people will walk on it,
00:23:06.047 --> 00:23:09.851
Do you see now that is,
00:23:10.352 --> 00:23:12.220
There's even going to be people who cast out demons in the name of jesus,
00:23:12.220 --> 00:23:14.589
And they're going to do these amazing things,
00:23:14.589 --> 00:23:16.391
And the lord is going to say, depart from me, for i never knew.
00:23:16.391 --> 00:23:18.660
You see how how broad this road is.
00:23:18.660 --> 00:23:22.998
And very few people ever get to this seed.
00:23:23.899 --> 00:23:25.967
But i think that we can get a whole auditorium, people and everybody
00:23:25.967 --> 00:23:28.970
Watching online in this seat today.
00:23:28.970 --> 00:23:32.207
Because in this seat it's try harder, be a better christian.
00:23:33.408 --> 00:23:37.412
Oh, i messed up.
00:23:37.779 --> 00:23:39.347
I can't go to church and show my face because i was vaping
00:23:39.347 --> 00:23:41.283
And smoking and drinking with this person.
00:23:41.283 --> 00:23:43.552
I have to try harder.
00:23:43.552 --> 00:23:44.719
I have to fast. i have to pray.
00:23:44.719 --> 00:23:47.022
I got a dear woman in my church and she came to growth track
00:23:47.022 --> 00:23:50.492
After church one day and she said, pastor mike, she said, i've been fasting.
00:23:50.492 --> 00:23:55.163
I've been praying, i've been reading my bible more.
00:23:55.163 --> 00:23:57.899
She said, i've been giving more to the church.
00:23:57.899 --> 00:23:59.668
I said, praise god.
00:23:59.668 --> 00:24:01.169
She said, i've been serving more. i said, praise god.
00:24:01.169 --> 00:24:03.171
And she said,
00:24:03.171 --> 00:24:04.539
I've been doing all these things as much as i could
00:24:04.539 --> 00:24:05.941
Because i want to receive the gift of tongues.
00:24:05.941 --> 00:24:08.577
And i haven't received the gift of tongues to speak in other languages.
00:24:08.577 --> 00:24:11.847
According to the spirit.
00:24:11.847 --> 00:24:13.682
Why is that, pastor mike?
00:24:14.249 --> 00:24:16.918
And what she was revealing is that she was sitting in this seat.
00:24:16.918 --> 00:24:21.223
I said, if you did
00:24:21.656 --> 00:24:23.191
All that work, it wouldn't be the gift of the spirit.
00:24:23.191 --> 00:24:26.761
It would be the reward of the spirit.
00:24:26.761 --> 00:24:30.131
It's not the rewards of the spirit, it's the gifts of the spirit.
00:24:31.433 --> 00:24:33.835
If you can earn it, it's a reward.
00:24:34.603 --> 00:24:35.904
But you can't earn it. you only receive it.
00:24:35.904 --> 00:24:39.140
Can i just tell you, if you're sitting in this seat,
00:24:40.175 --> 00:24:41.576
You're always trying to earn it.
00:24:41.576 --> 00:24:43.378
You're always trying to try harder, push harder.
00:24:43.378 --> 00:24:45.714
But there's another way.
00:24:45.714 --> 00:24:47.249
Can i show you the last and final seat?
00:24:47.249 --> 00:24:51.653
See this seat?
00:24:52.020 --> 00:24:53.221
You actually don't sit in it at all.
00:24:53.221 --> 00:24:57.025
This. see?
00:24:57.325 --> 00:24:58.226
You reserved for the king.
00:24:58.226 --> 00:25:00.295
And you get down on your knees.
00:25:00.295 --> 00:25:02.664
Oh, i'm talking to the blue collar construction
00:25:02.664 --> 00:25:05.534
Working man whose knees hurt from laying tile.
00:25:05.534 --> 00:25:09.104
I'm talking to the mothers that are changing diapers and raising kids.
00:25:10.539 --> 00:25:13.241
I'm talking to the white collar professionals in suits right now.
00:25:14.543 --> 00:25:16.778
You don't sit in this.
00:25:17.279 --> 00:25:19.314
See, you bow before the one who does, and you say, jesus, you're worthy of praise.
00:25:19.314 --> 00:25:23.184
I worship you and you alone.
00:25:23.785 --> 00:25:25.587
God, you are the true and living
00:25:25.587 --> 00:25:27.389
God and i worship you like abraham and isaac and jacob.
00:25:27.389 --> 00:25:31.359
I have an inheritance.
00:25:31.860 --> 00:25:33.395
And god, if you can do anything with my family, do it. god.
00:25:33.395 --> 00:25:36.898
In this season you say, i've been grafted in.
00:25:37.832 --> 00:25:39.568
In god.
00:25:39.568 --> 00:25:41.102
I want to be that bloodline generational curse breaker.
00:25:41.102 --> 00:25:44.506
There's some things that run in my family, but i am where they run out.
00:25:45.907 --> 00:25:50.145
Come on, can somebody shout
00:25:50.745 --> 00:25:52.681
If you know what i'm talking about?
00:25:52.681 --> 00:25:55.951
This is how you win the war
00:25:56.551 --> 00:25:58.887
By waving your white flag and saying, i was an enemy to god.
00:25:58.887 --> 00:26:03.491
I was against everything that you stand for.
00:26:04.392 --> 00:26:06.361
But my family name is going to mean the name of jesus christ.
00:26:06.361 --> 00:26:10.699
There's no more sickness rallies.
00:26:11.433 --> 00:26:12.767
There are just children.
00:26:12.767 --> 00:26:14.202
But by the blood of the lamb
00:26:14.202 --> 00:26:17.539
In this seed, they're fighting addiction.
00:26:18.440 --> 00:26:20.575
In this seed they're fighting addiction.
00:26:20.575 --> 00:26:22.744
But on your knees.
00:26:22.744 --> 00:26:23.912
Addiction is broken in jesus name.
00:26:23.912 --> 00:26:27.115
In this seed, it's all, oh, how much medication can i have in this seed?
00:26:28.550 --> 00:26:32.354
It's by his stripes i am healed.
00:26:32.988 --> 00:26:36.591
I really want to thank you for supporting this ministry.
00:26:37.726 --> 00:26:41.329
Pray about what god would have you do.
00:26:42.163 --> 00:26:43.732
We don't tell people what to give.
00:26:43.732 --> 00:26:45.667
What we do love to talk about is the amazing life saving projects
00:26:45.667 --> 00:26:50.105
That we do around the united states and around the world,
00:26:50.105 --> 00:26:53.508
Whether it's distributing the gospel in non-christian nations, even underground
00:26:55.110 --> 00:26:58.680
Church networks, or providing disaster relief to areas most affected
00:27:00.048 --> 00:27:02.951
Around the united states, many lives are being changed because of your generosity.
00:27:02.951 --> 00:27:02.951
