  • You and
  • 00:00:00.090 --> 00:00:01.191
  • I serve a god that knows the end from the beginning.
  • 00:00:01.191 --> 00:00:03.526
  • And there was nothing at all creation.
  • 00:00:03.526 --> 00:00:05.028
  • He cannot adjust on your behalf.
  • 00:00:05.028 --> 00:00:07.330
  • You are his son and his daughter,
  • 00:00:07.330 --> 00:00:11.201
  • And he desires to step into
  • 00:00:11.201 --> 00:00:15.271
  • Every difficult circumstance that you are in.
  • 00:00:15.271 --> 00:00:18.274
  • So i want to take this moment to encourage you.
  • 00:00:18.274 --> 00:00:20.410
  • My brother
  • 00:00:20.410 --> 00:00:21.945
  • And i want to take this moment to encourage you, my sister.
  • 00:00:21.945 --> 00:00:24.481
  • Those of you who need watch this word, help.
  • 00:00:24.481 --> 00:00:29.018
  • And it's beyond your ability.
  • 00:00:29.652 --> 00:00:31.521
  • It may be beyond your ability, but it's not beyond the ability
  • 00:00:31.521 --> 00:00:34.557
  • Of the god that we serve.
  • 00:00:34.557 --> 00:00:39.062
  • A tbm family.
  • 00:00:39.429 --> 00:00:40.830
  • I want to take this moment to talk to you about christ,
  • 00:00:40.830 --> 00:00:43.867
  • The waymaker.
  • 00:00:44.234 --> 00:00:45.702
  • If you followed our ministry, you know that
  • 00:00:45.702 --> 00:00:48.037
  • I have the privilege of leading 2819 church,
  • 00:00:48.037 --> 00:00:51.307
  • A ministry that i believe that god is using as a revival
  • 00:00:51.307 --> 00:00:54.677
  • Right now in our nation and around the world.
  • 00:00:54.677 --> 00:00:57.914
  • But if you follow our ministry, you also know
  • 00:00:57.914 --> 00:01:00.416
  • That there's a difficult season we went through.
  • 00:01:00.416 --> 00:01:02.218
  • That's not a secret.
  • 00:01:02.218 --> 00:01:03.453
  • When god began to breathe on 2019,
  • 00:01:03.453 --> 00:01:06.756
  • In 2023 and 2024,
  • 00:01:06.756 --> 00:01:10.393
  • We were meeting in a high school in the city of atlanta.
  • 00:01:10.393 --> 00:01:13.696
  • And because of the growth of the ministry, jesus was adding
  • 00:01:13.696 --> 00:01:17.066
  • Brothers and sisters, sons and daughters
  • 00:01:17.066 --> 00:01:19.335
  • At such an alarming rate,
  • 00:01:19.335 --> 00:01:20.470
  • It began to overwhelm the community that we was in,
  • 00:01:20.470 --> 00:01:24.207
  • And there were legitimate cries
  • 00:01:24.207 --> 00:01:25.742
  • In the community about traffic and parking and foot traffic
  • 00:01:25.742 --> 00:01:29.679
  • And all the things, and a situation emerged
  • 00:01:29.679 --> 00:01:32.615
  • Where we can no longer stay in that high school.
  • 00:01:32.615 --> 00:01:34.918
  • The principal was so gracious to us.
  • 00:01:34.918 --> 00:01:37.787
  • She did everything she can to help us.
  • 00:01:37.787 --> 00:01:39.589
  • The mayor of atlanta stepped in.
  • 00:01:39.589 --> 00:01:41.991
  • He did everything he can to help us,
  • 00:01:41.991 --> 00:01:43.526
  • But we knew we had to leave that building.
  • 00:01:43.526 --> 00:01:46.129
  • And we had just 90 days to leave
  • 00:01:46.129 --> 00:01:48.598
  • And then 60 days to leave, and then 30 days to leave.
  • 00:01:48.598 --> 00:01:51.801
  • And we saw no way out.
  • 00:01:51.801 --> 00:01:53.603
  • And there was a sunday.
  • 00:01:53.603 --> 00:01:55.104
  • And i got up to preach.
  • 00:01:55.104 --> 00:01:56.272
  • And i thought to myself, you know what?
  • 00:01:56.272 --> 00:01:57.574
  • I can't preach to my church in this condition.
  • 00:01:57.574 --> 00:02:00.610
  • I was up all night worrying, concerned
  • 00:02:00.610 --> 00:02:03.446
  • Where am i going to lead some 4 or 5000 people?
  • 00:02:03.446 --> 00:02:06.516
  • We have no place to go.
  • 00:02:06.516 --> 00:02:07.550
  • And i said to the church, so listen, right now
  • 00:02:07.550 --> 00:02:09.953
  • There is an ocean in front of us and an army behind us.
  • 00:02:09.953 --> 00:02:12.956
  • And i know no way forward but for us to pray.
  • 00:02:12.956 --> 00:02:15.658
  • And we turned all three of our gatherings into access.
  • 00:02:15.658 --> 00:02:18.328
  • And we got down on our hands and knees
  • 00:02:18.328 --> 00:02:20.396
  • And we prayed and we sought the lord.
  • 00:02:20.396 --> 00:02:22.465
  • In 24 hours later, after the whole church prayed
  • 00:02:22.465 --> 00:02:26.469
  • A door open for us,
  • 00:02:26.936 --> 00:02:29.172
  • A door we would have never open.
  • 00:02:29.172 --> 00:02:31.407
  • And that door, that open man allowed us to transition
  • 00:02:31.407 --> 00:02:34.177
  • Our church from the high school
  • 00:02:34.177 --> 00:02:35.845
  • To the next gathering location that we turned into a home,
  • 00:02:35.845 --> 00:02:39.182
  • At least a temporary home, for our family.
  • 00:02:39.182 --> 00:02:42.752
  • I look back on that story and i am reminded
  • 00:02:42.752 --> 00:02:44.821
  • That christ is a waymaker.
  • 00:02:44.821 --> 00:02:46.856
  • There are many you watching right now.
  • 00:02:46.856 --> 00:02:48.091
  • You may be in a jam.
  • 00:02:48.091 --> 00:02:49.926
  • You may be in a financial jam,
  • 00:02:49.926 --> 00:02:52.262
  • A relational jam, a business jam, whatever
  • 00:02:52.262 --> 00:02:55.131
  • The case may be, and maybe you can't see your way out.
  • 00:02:55.131 --> 00:02:58.167
  • Maybe you're not smart enough to figure this out.
  • 00:02:58.167 --> 00:03:00.970
  • Maybe you don't have the relational equity
  • 00:03:00.970 --> 00:03:03.473
  • To get yourself out.
  • 00:03:03.473 --> 00:03:04.641
  • You may not have the financial means to get yourself out,
  • 00:03:04.641 --> 00:03:07.143
  • But we are not helpless because we serve a god
  • 00:03:07.143 --> 00:03:09.679
  • Who is limitless in his power.
  • 00:03:09.679 --> 00:03:11.914
  • And i'm talking to people right now who have all manner
  • 00:03:11.914 --> 00:03:14.550
  • Of circumstances that seem impossible.
  • 00:03:14.550 --> 00:03:17.620
  • But the scripture reminds us, all things are possible
  • 00:03:17.620 --> 00:03:21.391
  • To the one who believes.
  • 00:03:21.391 --> 00:03:23.726
  • And just like
  • 00:03:23.726 --> 00:03:24.894
  • We got down on our hands and knees and prayed with faith
  • 00:03:24.894 --> 00:03:27.830
  • That god can make a way, i want to encourage you to pray
  • 00:03:27.830 --> 00:03:31.668
  • With faith and believe that god can make a way.
  • 00:03:31.668 --> 00:03:35.538
  • Maybe you can't see the way out, but he knows.
  • 00:03:35.538 --> 00:03:38.107
  • Maybe you can't figure it out, but he knows.
  • 00:03:38.107 --> 00:03:40.443
  • Maybe you can't pay your way out.
  • 00:03:40.443 --> 00:03:42.478
  • But he knows.
  • 00:03:42.478 --> 00:03:43.313
  • Maybe not smart enough, but he knows
  • 00:03:43.313 --> 00:03:46.382
  • You and i serve a god that knows the end from the beginning.
  • 00:03:46.382 --> 00:03:49.886
  • And there was nothing at all creation.
  • 00:03:49.886 --> 00:03:51.387
  • He cannot adjust on your behalf.
  • 00:03:51.387 --> 00:03:53.690
  • You are his son and his daughter,
  • 00:03:53.690 --> 00:03:57.560
  • And he desires to step into
  • 00:03:57.560 --> 00:04:01.631
  • Every difficult circumstance that you are in.
  • 00:04:01.631 --> 00:04:04.634
  • So i want to take this moment to encourage you. my brother
  • 00:04:04.634 --> 00:04:08.304
  • And i want to take this moment to encourage you, my sister.
  • 00:04:08.304 --> 00:04:10.840
  • Those of you who need watch this word, help.
  • 00:04:10.840 --> 00:04:15.378
  • And it's beyond your ability.
  • 00:04:16.012 --> 00:04:17.880
  • It may be beyond your ability, but it's not beyond the ability
  • 00:04:17.880 --> 00:04:20.917
  • Of the god that we serve.
  • 00:04:20.917 --> 00:04:22.885
  • I want to encourage you to humble yourself and to pray
  • 00:04:22.885 --> 00:04:26.956
  • And to seek god and cry out to him,
  • 00:04:26.956 --> 00:04:29.359
  • And let god rescue you from your circumstance.
  • 00:04:29.359 --> 00:04:33.329
  • Let god deliver you from your circumstance.
  • 00:04:33.329 --> 00:04:37.200
  • Let god step into that situation with you
  • 00:04:37.200 --> 00:04:41.170
  • And make a way for you where there is no way.
  • 00:04:41.170 --> 00:04:43.840
  • There is nothing impossible
  • 00:04:43.840 --> 00:04:46.642
  • For the god that you and i serve.
  • 00:04:46.642 --> 00:04:49.445
  • It's just a matter of your faith.
  • 00:04:49.445 --> 00:04:51.881
  • Your prayers, your trust and trust him to do
  • 00:04:51.881 --> 00:04:55.852
  • What's in accordance of his perfect will.
  • 00:04:55.852 --> 00:04:58.621
  • We cannot twist his arm and we cannot bargain with him.
  • 00:04:58.621 --> 00:05:03.359
  • But we can't exercise faith.
  • 00:05:03.359 --> 00:05:05.428
  • We can't pray, and we can't remind him of the scriptures.
  • 00:05:05.428 --> 00:05:08.998
  • So to you, my brother, and to you, my sister,
  • 00:05:08.998 --> 00:05:12.435
  • Who find yourself in a jam or in a need,
  • 00:05:12.435 --> 00:05:15.538
  • I want to remind that we serve christ the waymaker.
  • 00:05:15.538 --> 00:05:20.009
  • He can make a way where there's no way if he can part
  • 00:05:20.009 --> 00:05:23.546
  • An ocean for people, what can he not do for you?
  • 00:05:23.546 --> 00:05:29.218
  • We serve christ, the waymaker.
  • 00:05:29.218 --> 00:05:29.218
