  • 00:00:08.324 --> 00:00:17.400
  • Hey, friends and family, it's tim
  • 00:00:17.400 --> 00:00:19.135
  • Timberlake of celebration church,
  • 00:00:19.135 --> 00:00:21.371
  • And i'm honored that you would take up this time
  • 00:00:21.371 --> 00:00:23.506
  • To spend a little time with us
  • 00:00:23.506 --> 00:00:25.041
  • As we go through the word of god.
  • 00:00:25.041 --> 00:00:27.210
  • We're in this series.
  • 00:00:27.210 --> 00:00:28.845
  • We're walking through the book of acts,
  • 00:00:28.845 --> 00:00:30.747
  • Looking at the acts of the apostles.
  • 00:00:30.747 --> 00:00:32.782
  • And i believe today's message is going to help unleash
  • 00:00:32.782 --> 00:00:36.553
  • And release god's best for your life.
  • 00:00:36.553 --> 00:00:39.589
  • Let's go into the word as it has already begun.
  • 00:00:39.589 --> 00:00:41.991
  • Entitled when god brings you out
  • 00:00:41.991 --> 00:00:45.495
  • And some of you are
  • 00:00:45.962 --> 00:00:48.932
  • Shackled
  • 00:00:48.932 --> 00:00:51.501
  • And held hostage
  • 00:00:51.501 --> 00:00:53.870
  • And trapped
  • 00:00:53.870 --> 00:00:55.572
  • Not because you've done anything wrong,
  • 00:00:55.572 --> 00:00:58.942
  • But because you're actually living right.
  • 00:00:58.942 --> 00:01:02.512
  • You know, on the flip side of it, some of you are
  • 00:01:02.512 --> 00:01:04.714
  • In shackles.
  • 00:01:04.714 --> 00:01:07.884
  • Trapped.
  • 00:01:08.118 --> 00:01:09.986
  • Locked up
  • 00:01:09.986 --> 00:01:12.021
  • Because you are doing something wrong,
  • 00:01:12.021 --> 00:01:16.593
  • Scripture says filled with jealousy.
  • 00:01:17.393 --> 00:01:21.898
  • They arrested the apostles and they put them
  • 00:01:22.832 --> 00:01:26.636
  • In a public prison.
  • 00:01:27.103 --> 00:01:29.806
  • Point number one is this
  • 00:01:29.806 --> 00:01:33.276
  • Jealousy builds prisons.
  • 00:01:33.276 --> 00:01:36.713
  • Obedience breaks them.
  • 00:01:36.713 --> 00:01:44.487
  • Off jealousy puts you in the prison.
  • 00:01:45.221 --> 00:01:48.324
  • It is your obedience that breaks
  • 00:01:48.958 --> 00:01:50.994
  • Open the prison doors.
  • 00:01:50.994 --> 00:01:54.130
  • Why is jealousy so dangerous?
  • 00:01:54.130 --> 00:01:56.966
  • Because jealousy is rooted in insecurity.
  • 00:01:56.966 --> 00:02:03.273
  • And insecurity is dangerous
  • 00:02:03.873 --> 00:02:05.575
  • Because insecurity always tries to arrest what it can
  • 00:02:05.575 --> 00:02:08.811
  • Imitate.
  • 00:02:08.811 --> 00:02:12.815
  • Let me talk to those that struggle with insecurity
  • 00:02:13.850 --> 00:02:15.952
  • Right now.
  • 00:02:15.952 --> 00:02:18.988
  • Step back from the mirror
  • 00:02:18.988 --> 00:02:20.323
  • You're holding in front of yourself.
  • 00:02:20.323 --> 00:02:23.593
  • View yourself from the lens
  • 00:02:23.593 --> 00:02:24.861
  • And from the perspective of how jesus views you.
  • 00:02:24.861 --> 00:02:28.364
  • He calls you a chosen people,
  • 00:02:28.998 --> 00:02:31.634
  • A peculiar person.
  • 00:02:31.634 --> 00:02:34.370
  • He calls you the head and not the tail.
  • 00:02:34.370 --> 00:02:37.440
  • What makes insecurity so dangerous is
  • 00:02:38.241 --> 00:02:40.577
  • Insecurity is rooted in pride.
  • 00:02:40.577 --> 00:02:43.613
  • Why is insecurity rooted in pride?
  • 00:02:44.347 --> 00:02:46.316
  • Because insecurity portrays an image in your mind
  • 00:02:46.316 --> 00:02:49.319
  • That makes you think contrary to how god thinks about you.
  • 00:02:49.319 --> 00:02:52.789
  • So if you think too highly of yourself,
  • 00:02:52.789 --> 00:02:54.591
  • You're operating in pride.
  • 00:02:54.591 --> 00:02:55.658
  • And when you think too
  • 00:02:55.658 --> 00:02:56.659
  • Lowly of yourself, you're operating in pride,
  • 00:02:56.659 --> 00:02:59.662
  • Both are pride.
  • 00:03:00.029 --> 00:03:02.298
  • And so if you feel insecure,
  • 00:03:02.298 --> 00:03:05.068
  • Denounce and renounce that insecurity.
  • 00:03:05.068 --> 00:03:08.438
  • Tell jesus you want to see yourself the way he sees you,
  • 00:03:09.572 --> 00:03:12.875
  • And you want to step into everything
  • 00:03:13.676 --> 00:03:15.445
  • He desires for you to step into according to his will
  • 00:03:15.445 --> 00:03:18.948
  • And according to his purpose for your life.
  • 00:03:18.948 --> 00:03:20.883
  • Can i get a good amen.
  • 00:03:20.883 --> 00:03:23.886
  • So insecurity
  • 00:03:23.886 --> 00:03:25.288
  • Always tries to arrest what it can't imitate.
  • 00:03:25.288 --> 00:03:28.291
  • The reason the sadducees
  • 00:03:28.291 --> 00:03:29.993
  • And this particular high priest tried to arrest them
  • 00:03:29.993 --> 00:03:32.862
  • Is because they could not imitate the power
  • 00:03:32.862 --> 00:03:34.964
  • That was at work on the inside of them.
  • 00:03:34.964 --> 00:03:36.899
  • And whenever you feel like the enemy
  • 00:03:36.899 --> 00:03:38.901
  • Is trying to arrest you or restrain you,
  • 00:03:38.901 --> 00:03:40.903
  • You have to remind yourself.
  • 00:03:40.903 --> 00:03:42.305
  • Greater is he that is in me than he that is in the world.
  • 00:03:42.305 --> 00:03:48.011
  • We'll get there in a moment.
  • 00:03:48.611 --> 00:03:49.746
  • I still got a little work to do.
  • 00:03:49.746 --> 00:03:51.114
  • Jealousy.
  • 00:03:51.114 --> 00:03:52.081
  • Jail is what it secretly wishes it carries.
  • 00:03:52.081 --> 00:03:55.084
  • And so if there's someone jealous of you,
  • 00:03:55.084 --> 00:03:57.020
  • If there's an enemy jealous of you, it's simply
  • 00:03:57.020 --> 00:03:59.622
  • Because they secretly wish they carry what you carry.
  • 00:03:59.622 --> 00:04:02.825
  • It's because they secretly wish they had what you had.
  • 00:04:03.860 --> 00:04:07.630
  • I have never in my life found someone that was jealous of me,
  • 00:04:07.630 --> 00:04:11.601
  • That was doing more than i was for jesus christ.
  • 00:04:11.601 --> 00:04:15.638
  • And so if they're talking about you, let them talk. or.
  • 00:04:16.773 --> 00:04:24.113
  • They gossiping about you.
  • 00:04:24.681 --> 00:04:25.882
  • Let them gossip.
  • 00:04:25.882 --> 00:04:28.351
  • We're too busy to entertain them
  • 00:04:28.351 --> 00:04:29.852
  • Because we're gossiping about jesus.
  • 00:04:29.852 --> 00:04:32.922
  • When you hear people gossiping about you,
  • 00:04:33.790 --> 00:04:35.525
  • You gossip about jesus.
  • 00:04:35.525 --> 00:04:36.893
  • Let me tell you what he did for me last week.
  • 00:04:36.893 --> 00:04:39.462
  • Let me tell you how he bought me out.
  • 00:04:39.462 --> 00:04:41.230
  • Let me tell you how to heal my body.
  • 00:04:41.230 --> 00:04:43.132
  • Let me tell you how he changed my mind.
  • 00:04:43.132 --> 00:04:45.068
  • Let me tell you how he tells my kids.
  • 00:04:45.068 --> 00:04:47.203
  • Let me tell you how it changed my destiny.
  • 00:04:47.203 --> 00:04:49.205
  • Whenever somebody gossips about you, you gossip about jesus.
  • 00:04:49.205 --> 00:04:53.009
  • Let me tell you how he healed me.
  • 00:04:53.009 --> 00:04:54.777
  • How he stored me. i saved me.
  • 00:04:54.777 --> 00:04:57.413
  • I set me free.
  • 00:04:57.413 --> 00:04:58.881
  • I redeemed me, i renewed me.
  • 00:04:58.881 --> 00:05:00.717
  • Let me tell you a little bit about my god.
  • 00:05:00.717 --> 00:05:03.786
  • Oh, wow.
  • 00:05:04.053 --> 00:05:04.754
  • Oh, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah.
  • 00:05:04.754 --> 00:05:11.961
  • And it's not until you realize
  • 00:05:12.562 --> 00:05:15.031
  • Who you are.
  • 00:05:15.031 --> 00:05:18.301
  • That you stop tolerating
  • 00:05:18.301 --> 00:05:20.803
  • What the enemy presents.
  • 00:05:20.803 --> 00:05:24.173
  • See, some of us don't realize who we are.
  • 00:05:25.074 --> 00:05:28.244
  • So we stay trapped.
  • 00:05:28.711 --> 00:05:30.046
  • We stay locked up. we stay in shackle.
  • 00:05:30.046 --> 00:05:32.648
  • We stay in chains.
  • 00:05:32.648 --> 00:05:33.716
  • It does not say that the apostles panicked.
  • 00:05:33.716 --> 00:05:38.688
  • It doesn't say that
  • 00:05:39.155 --> 00:05:39.889
  • The apostle stressed.
  • 00:05:39.889 --> 00:05:43.192
  • It doesn't say that the apostles feared it.
  • 00:05:43.192 --> 00:05:46.462
  • Said they were in their cell.
  • 00:05:46.462 --> 00:05:56.472
  • And look at what happened.
  • 00:05:57.039 --> 00:05:59.909
  • It says an angel of the lord.
  • 00:05:59.909 --> 00:06:03.780
  • It appeared to them.
  • 00:06:04.247 --> 00:06:07.283
  • And opened the cell.
  • 00:06:07.750 --> 00:06:14.824
  • It didn't say that the guards opened the cell.
  • 00:06:15.792 --> 00:06:18.661
  • It doesn't even say that
  • 00:06:18.661 --> 00:06:19.896
  • The guards noticed or understood or realized what had happened.
  • 00:06:19.896 --> 00:06:23.266
  • As a matter of fact, as we continue to work
  • 00:06:23.266 --> 00:06:25.101
  • Through the text, you'll see that the prison
  • 00:06:25.101 --> 00:06:26.602
  • Guards are still in the same place
  • 00:06:26.602 --> 00:06:29.038
  • That they were before the angel of the lord appeared.
  • 00:06:29.038 --> 00:06:32.842
  • Before you push me, g.
  • 00:06:33.309 --> 00:06:34.377
  • Let me preach.
  • 00:06:34.377 --> 00:06:40.249
  • It's important for us to understand
  • 00:06:40.983 --> 00:06:42.552
  • When religion feels replace it tries to retaliate.
  • 00:06:42.552 --> 00:06:46.522
  • And that's what we see happening today in society and culture.
  • 00:06:46.522 --> 00:06:50.026
  • Maybe in your personal life, when the enemy
  • 00:06:50.026 --> 00:06:52.128
  • Can't control you, he tries to control how you see
  • 00:06:52.128 --> 00:06:55.665
  • God's hand of blessing at work through you.
  • 00:06:55.665 --> 00:06:59.202
  • What do i mean by that?
  • 00:06:59.702 --> 00:07:00.870
  • When the enemy can't stop god blessing you, he tries
  • 00:07:00.870 --> 00:07:04.407
  • To control your perspective of how you see god blessing you.
  • 00:07:04.407 --> 00:07:11.414
  • I love this passage
  • 00:07:11.881 --> 00:07:13.082
  • Because it doesn't say that the angel of the lord
  • 00:07:13.082 --> 00:07:15.785
  • Blocked him from being locked up.
  • 00:07:15.785 --> 00:07:18.321
  • It doesn't say that the angel of the lord
  • 00:07:18.321 --> 00:07:20.122
  • Stopped them from going in the prison cell.
  • 00:07:20.122 --> 00:07:22.158
  • It doesn't say that the angel of the lord
  • 00:07:22.158 --> 00:07:23.693
  • Stopped them from being in chains and restrained. no.
  • 00:07:23.693 --> 00:07:26.262
  • It says that the angel of
  • 00:07:26.262 --> 00:07:27.396
  • The lord got them out of what was holding them back.
  • 00:07:27.396 --> 00:07:30.967
  • And sometimes god will absolutely let you walk through
  • 00:07:30.967 --> 00:07:34.203
  • Some things.
  • 00:07:34.203 --> 00:07:35.304
  • God will absolutely let you stay stuck in some things.
  • 00:07:35.304 --> 00:07:38.107
  • God will absolutely let you stay entangled in some things
  • 00:07:38.107 --> 00:07:41.210
  • Until he shows up to get you out of what it was that
  • 00:07:41.210 --> 00:07:44.814
  • You may have gotten yourself into,
  • 00:07:44.814 --> 00:07:46.749
  • Or what someone else may have put you through.
  • 00:07:46.749 --> 00:07:48.851
  • To demonstrate how powerful of a god he is.
  • 00:07:48.851 --> 00:07:53.856
  • And so
  • 00:07:54.056 --> 00:07:55.258
  • We find this as application to our own love, understanding
  • 00:07:55.258 --> 00:07:58.761
  • That sometimes you're in the position
  • 00:07:58.761 --> 00:08:01.264
  • You're in, not because you've done wrong,
  • 00:08:01.264 --> 00:08:02.965
  • But absolutely because you've done right.
  • 00:08:02.965 --> 00:08:08.738
  • But when god
  • 00:08:09.071 --> 00:08:10.940
  • Brings you out.
  • 00:08:10.940 --> 00:08:14.210
  • It ain't nothing
  • 00:08:14.210 --> 00:08:15.111
  • No one or anything can do.
  • 00:08:15.111 --> 00:08:19.148
  • To force you to go back in.
  • 00:08:19.749 --> 00:08:24.453
  • Let's continue to work through the text a little bit.
  • 00:08:25.454 --> 00:08:27.323
  • Point number two is this god opens doors not for comfort,
  • 00:08:27.323 --> 00:08:32.461
  • But for calling.
  • 00:08:32.828 --> 00:08:36.933
  • Look at what the angel did not say.
  • 00:08:37.667 --> 00:08:40.836
  • The angel did not say. run!
  • 00:08:40.836 --> 00:08:43.673
  • They go get you.
  • 00:08:43.673 --> 00:08:45.441
  • They after you.
  • 00:08:45.441 --> 00:08:47.243
  • I don't know how many.
  • 00:08:47.243 --> 00:08:47.977
  • You ever been locked up before?
  • 00:08:47.977 --> 00:08:49.946
  • I have.
  • 00:08:49.946 --> 00:08:51.380
  • Soon as they let me out,
  • 00:08:51.380 --> 00:08:53.215
  • I got as far as i could away from that place.
  • 00:08:53.215 --> 00:08:55.685
  • You start to feel your risks and what freedom feels like again.
  • 00:08:56.852 --> 00:08:59.255
  • Oh, thank you god, oh thank you god.
  • 00:08:59.255 --> 00:09:01.490
  • Thank you, thank you, thank you. you receive free.
  • 00:09:01.490 --> 00:09:03.292
  • Your hands are free. your ankles are free.
  • 00:09:03.292 --> 00:09:05.261
  • You are no longer bound.
  • 00:09:05.261 --> 00:09:06.295
  • You're no longer in the place.
  • 00:09:06.295 --> 00:09:11.434
  • It didn't say that.
  • 00:09:11.901 --> 00:09:12.735
  • They ran
  • 00:09:12.735 --> 00:09:14.904
  • Into the lord.
  • 00:09:14.904 --> 00:09:15.571
  • Didn't instruct them to run.
  • 00:09:15.571 --> 00:09:16.706
  • Angel of the lord didn't
  • 00:09:16.706 --> 00:09:17.707
  • Instruct them to do anything except for stand
  • 00:09:17.707 --> 00:09:22.311
  • And teach.
  • 00:09:22.612 --> 00:09:27.483
  • Stand.
  • 00:09:27.683 --> 00:09:30.620
  • And teach.
  • 00:09:30.620 --> 00:09:31.487
  • When god brings you out, stand faithful
  • 00:09:31.487 --> 00:09:36.225
  • And teach the testimony that he's written in your life.
  • 00:09:37.293 --> 00:09:41.130
  • We overcome by the blood of the lamb
  • 00:09:41.130 --> 00:09:44.200
  • And by the words of our testimony.
  • 00:09:44.200 --> 00:09:47.403
  • Right?
  • 00:09:47.403 --> 00:09:47.937
  • So stand and teach.
  • 00:09:47.937 --> 00:09:50.906
  • How do i stand and teach?
  • 00:09:51.474 --> 00:09:52.942
  • I'm faithful in the things i don't want to be faithful in.
  • 00:09:52.942 --> 00:09:56.212
  • How do i stand and teach?
  • 00:09:56.779 --> 00:09:58.047
  • I'm consistent in the things i don't want to be consistent in.
  • 00:09:58.047 --> 00:10:01.250
  • How do i stand and teach, i work against my flesh when my flesh
  • 00:10:01.250 --> 00:10:05.254
  • Is working against me
  • 00:10:05.254 --> 00:10:06.622
  • And i allow the spirit of god on the inside of me
  • 00:10:06.622 --> 00:10:09.525
  • To radiate louder than anything
  • 00:10:09.525 --> 00:10:11.661
  • That i personally want to do, how do i stand and teach?
  • 00:10:11.661 --> 00:10:15.297
  • I stand and teach by being consistent
  • 00:10:15.297 --> 00:10:17.466
  • And faithful in the areas that my flesh does
  • 00:10:17.466 --> 00:10:19.902
  • Not want to be consistent and faithful
  • 00:10:19.902 --> 00:10:21.470
  • In.
  • 00:10:21.470 --> 00:10:23.239
  • So the angel of the lord, he instructs them to stand
  • 00:10:23.239 --> 00:10:27.677
  • And teach.
  • 00:10:27.977 --> 00:10:30.112
  • He gives them
  • 00:10:30.112 --> 00:10:31.380
  • Specific instructions about what he wants them to speak about.
  • 00:10:31.380 --> 00:10:34.884
  • He says in verse 20,
  • 00:10:35.351 --> 00:10:38.688
  • Go and stand in the temple
  • 00:10:38.688 --> 00:10:42.091
  • And speak to the people
  • 00:10:42.091 --> 00:10:44.326
  • All the words of this life.
  • 00:10:44.326 --> 00:10:49.498
  • I want you to underline that.
  • 00:10:50.132 --> 00:10:51.300
  • I want you to highlight that.
  • 00:10:51.300 --> 00:10:54.370
  • I want you to write this beside it in the greek.
  • 00:10:54.370 --> 00:10:57.673
  • The words of this life
  • 00:10:57.673 --> 00:11:00.376
  • Can be defined.
  • 00:11:00.376 --> 00:11:02.545
  • It's the luke saying, keep preaching
  • 00:11:02.545 --> 00:11:06.348
  • The resurrection.
  • 00:11:06.348 --> 00:11:09.952
  • Keep teaching the resurrection
  • 00:11:10.553 --> 00:11:14.824
  • What luke is saying.
  • 00:11:15.291 --> 00:11:17.359
  • Keep announcing the kind of life
  • 00:11:17.359 --> 00:11:19.528
  • That can't die.
  • 00:11:19.528 --> 00:11:25.568
  • Hear me?
  • 00:11:25.835 --> 00:11:27.737
  • Very important that you hear me
  • 00:11:27.737 --> 00:11:30.773
  • When you stand.
  • 00:11:30.773 --> 00:11:32.808
  • You are teaching the kind of life
  • 00:11:32.808 --> 00:11:36.445
  • That can't die.
  • 00:11:36.812 --> 00:11:42.351
  • When the enemy
  • 00:11:42.685 --> 00:11:43.552
  • Is pushing against you, you remind him,
  • 00:11:43.552 --> 00:11:46.822
  • I stand for the kind of life
  • 00:11:47.423 --> 00:11:51.293
  • That cannot die.
  • 00:11:51.694 --> 00:11:55.331
  • So what does this mean in
  • 00:11:55.898 --> 00:11:56.999
  • Context to what you may be going through right now?
  • 00:11:56.999 --> 00:12:00.736
  • It means you remind yourself
  • 00:12:01.337 --> 00:12:04.807
  • That the resurrection power of jesus christ
  • 00:12:04.807 --> 00:12:08.277
  • Is at work in you.
  • 00:12:08.711 --> 00:12:12.081
  • And if the resurrection power of
  • 00:12:12.081 --> 00:12:13.949
  • Jesus christ is powerful enough to raise him from the dead,
  • 00:12:13.949 --> 00:12:17.686
  • Don't you believe it's powerful enough to free you
  • 00:12:18.687 --> 00:12:21.157
  • From whatever bondage is holding you back right now?
  • 00:12:21.157 --> 00:12:28.597
  • So instead of worrying about it,
  • 00:12:29.231 --> 00:12:32.334
  • Worship
  • 00:12:32.334 --> 00:12:34.370
  • Instead of stressing about it.
  • 00:12:34.370 --> 00:12:36.405
  • Praise instead of operating in fear.
  • 00:12:36.405 --> 00:12:40.442
  • Apply your faith because god opens doors
  • 00:12:40.442 --> 00:12:44.446
  • Not for comfort, but for your calling.
  • 00:12:44.446 --> 00:12:47.716
  • The proof of your freedom is not that you left prison.
  • 00:12:47.716 --> 00:12:51.120
  • The proof of your freedom is that you return to
  • 00:12:52.121 --> 00:12:54.890
  • Your god given purpose.
  • 00:12:54.890 --> 00:12:58.360
  • You have a purpose in your life.
  • 00:12:58.994 --> 00:13:01.430
  • I said.
  • 00:13:01.664 --> 00:13:02.364
  • You have a purpose in your life.
  • 00:13:02.364 --> 00:13:04.233
  • You have a purpose on your life.
  • 00:13:04.233 --> 00:13:05.501
  • Your purpose is not to work.
  • 00:13:05.501 --> 00:13:06.836
  • Your job.
  • 00:13:06.836 --> 00:13:12.808
  • Now, don't hear what i'm not saying.
  • 00:13:13.576 --> 00:13:15.144
  • I'm not saying to quit your job.
  • 00:13:15.144 --> 00:13:18.514
  • I'm telling you your job is not your purpose.
  • 00:13:18.514 --> 00:13:22.718
  • That's what i'm telling you.
  • 00:13:23.319 --> 00:13:24.286
  • I'm telling you your purpose
  • 00:13:24.286 --> 00:13:26.255
  • Is something far greater than you working or 9 to 5.
  • 00:13:26.255 --> 00:13:29.225
  • Your purpose is what you were created for.
  • 00:13:29.225 --> 00:13:31.427
  • Do you really think that god created you to come and clock
  • 00:13:31.427 --> 00:13:34.663
  • In here?
  • 00:13:34.663 --> 00:13:38.167
  • No. he created you to be
  • 00:13:38.167 --> 00:13:39.468
  • An extension of what's going on in heaven.
  • 00:13:39.468 --> 00:13:41.470
  • He created you to extend his family from heaven to earth.
  • 00:13:41.470 --> 00:13:44.406
  • He created you so that when you talk,
  • 00:13:44.406 --> 00:13:46.742
  • When you walk, when you move, when you breathe,
  • 00:13:46.742 --> 00:13:48.978
  • You are singing a song to the lord.
  • 00:13:48.978 --> 00:13:51.113
  • He created you for worship and worship.
  • 00:13:51.113 --> 00:13:53.282
  • It's not just what we do at the beginning of service.
  • 00:13:53.282 --> 00:13:55.584
  • Worship is our life.
  • 00:13:55.584 --> 00:13:57.019
  • It is a lifestyle that we live.
  • 00:13:57.019 --> 00:13:58.754
  • So when i wake up in the morning, i worship.
  • 00:13:58.754 --> 00:14:00.723
  • When i go to sleep at night, i worship
  • 00:14:00.723 --> 00:14:02.524
  • When i breathe, i worship when i lift my hands, i worship
  • 00:14:02.524 --> 00:14:05.694
  • When i give, i worship when i make sacrifice.
  • 00:14:05.694 --> 00:14:08.497
  • Our worship when i say hallelujah, i worship
  • 00:14:08.497 --> 00:14:10.966
  • When i cry, i worship when i laugh, i worship.
  • 00:14:10.966 --> 00:14:13.769
  • All of life is worship.
  • 00:14:13.769 --> 00:14:19.408
  • All of life is worship.
  • 00:14:19.909 --> 00:14:21.277
  • And we've been taught bad theology to make us believe
  • 00:14:21.277 --> 00:14:24.079
  • That worship is just the beginning of a service.
  • 00:14:24.079 --> 00:14:27.917
  • And so we say things like,
  • 00:14:28.484 --> 00:14:30.152
  • I'm going to show up late because i don't want to worship.
  • 00:14:30.152 --> 00:14:34.256
  • And they sing too long.
  • 00:14:34.757 --> 00:14:36.025
  • You know, you sound like you sound like the sadducees
  • 00:14:36.025 --> 00:14:46.869
  • I'm going to take my time.
  • 00:14:47.436 --> 00:14:50.439
  • We got a little time.
  • 00:14:50.439 --> 00:14:55.110
  • Because i want you to understand this.
  • 00:14:55.945 --> 00:14:59.181
  • Because we've been made to believe that
  • 00:14:59.181 --> 00:15:00.616
  • These moments are for us.
  • 00:15:00.616 --> 00:15:03.819
  • And they're not
  • 00:15:04.186 --> 00:15:06.055
  • For the king of kings and the lord of lords who desires
  • 00:15:06.055 --> 00:15:09.391
  • To fill us with the spirit,
  • 00:15:09.992 --> 00:15:13.362
  • To fill us with his spirit.
  • 00:15:13.362 --> 00:15:17.833
  • Think about that for a moment.
  • 00:15:18.434 --> 00:15:21.003
  • The king of kings and the lord of lords desires
  • 00:15:21.003 --> 00:15:23.872
  • To fill you with his spirit.
  • 00:15:23.872 --> 00:15:31.647
  • So god
  • 00:15:31.847 --> 00:15:33.415
  • Opens doors not for comfort,
  • 00:15:33.415 --> 00:15:36.986
  • But for calling.
  • 00:15:37.353 --> 00:15:40.823
  • Do you understand
  • 00:15:41.256 --> 00:15:43.892
  • That breakthrough without obedience
  • 00:15:43.892 --> 00:15:47.262
  • Is rebellion in disguise?
  • 00:15:47.262 --> 00:15:50.699
  • And some of you are praying
  • 00:15:51.300 --> 00:15:52.735
  • That god would open the cell, but you have no desire
  • 00:15:52.735 --> 00:15:55.504
  • To serve him completely and totally.
  • 00:15:55.504 --> 00:15:58.707
  • Some of you are asking him to bring you out, but
  • 00:15:59.641 --> 00:16:02.111
  • You have no desire to serve him with all of your heart.
  • 00:16:02.111 --> 00:16:05.381
  • Some of you are asking god to deliver you,
  • 00:16:06.215 --> 00:16:08.751
  • But you have not delivered
  • 00:16:08.751 --> 00:16:10.285
  • The things that god
  • 00:16:10.285 --> 00:16:11.520
  • Has placed in you for his glory and for his kingdom.
  • 00:16:11.520 --> 00:16:14.656
  • So do you know what god will do?
  • 00:16:14.656 --> 00:16:16.225
  • God will absolutely leave you in long enough.
  • 00:16:16.225 --> 00:16:20.329
  • Until you are broken of everything that is tried
  • 00:16:21.296 --> 00:16:23.632
  • To hold you.
  • 00:16:23.632 --> 00:16:27.169
  • To become who he desires for you to become.
  • 00:16:27.169 --> 00:16:30.172
  • So when god
  • 00:16:30.506 --> 00:16:31.673
  • Brings you out, he does not bring you out for comfort.
  • 00:16:31.673 --> 00:16:35.778
  • He brings you out for your calling.
  • 00:16:35.778 --> 00:16:39.081
  • You have a call on your life.
  • 00:16:39.081 --> 00:16:41.550
  • You have an assignment on your life.
  • 00:16:41.550 --> 00:16:44.053
  • You have a god given purpose on your life,
  • 00:16:44.053 --> 00:16:46.955
  • And you will stay trapped
  • 00:16:46.955 --> 00:16:48.724
  • In the things that you are
  • 00:16:48.724 --> 00:16:50.025
  • Trapped in until you surrender your all to him
  • 00:16:50.025 --> 00:16:53.862
  • And submit your will to his will and your way to his way.
  • 00:16:53.862 --> 00:16:57.399
  • And i know life may be going good right now
  • 00:16:57.399 --> 00:16:59.501
  • For you, but guess what? keep on living.
  • 00:16:59.501 --> 00:17:01.303
  • If you live it with him, it gets better and better.
  • 00:17:01.303 --> 00:17:03.739
  • It gets gooder and gooder.
  • 00:17:03.739 --> 00:17:05.507
  • And i know you like with this bad english.
  • 00:17:05.507 --> 00:17:07.643
  • I know it is. but it makes sense to me.
  • 00:17:07.643 --> 00:17:12.081
  • So god will bring you out.
  • 00:17:12.648 --> 00:17:15.984
  • Not for your comfort, but for your calling.
  • 00:17:15.984 --> 00:17:20.522
  • Can we dig a little bit deeper?
  • 00:17:21.156 --> 00:17:25.194
  • Point number three is this.
  • 00:17:25.794 --> 00:17:27.029
  • You can be loyal to duty and still miss divinity.
  • 00:17:27.029 --> 00:17:35.471
  • You can be loyal to duty
  • 00:17:35.971 --> 00:17:37.206
  • And still miss divinity.
  • 00:17:37.206 --> 00:17:40.476
  • Don't be so busy.
  • 00:17:40.476 --> 00:17:43.846
  • Doing the things of ministry
  • 00:17:44.413 --> 00:17:46.515
  • That you forget to serve jesus.
  • 00:17:46.515 --> 00:17:50.419
  • Don't allow jesus presence to be here in you.
  • 00:17:50.419 --> 00:17:53.122
  • So focus on what needs to be done that you miss it.
  • 00:17:53.122 --> 00:17:56.925
  • Don't be so focused on what's coming
  • 00:17:57.693 --> 00:17:59.895
  • Next that you don't see
  • 00:17:59.895 --> 00:18:01.897
  • Who's standing in front of you right now.
  • 00:18:01.897 --> 00:18:05.667
  • You can be so loyal to duty that you miss the divinity.
  • 00:18:05.667 --> 00:18:10.072
  • It says.
  • 00:18:10.072 --> 00:18:11.039
  • We found the prison securely locked and the
  • 00:18:11.039 --> 00:18:13.876
  • Guards standing at the doors.
  • 00:18:13.876 --> 00:18:20.282
  • If i'm being honest with you,
  • 00:18:20.916 --> 00:18:21.984
  • That's the tragedy of religion.
  • 00:18:21.984 --> 00:18:25.487
  • People religiously guarding
  • 00:18:26.088 --> 00:18:27.990
  • Empty rooms.
  • 00:18:27.990 --> 00:18:31.126
  • God doesn't just want to fill a building.
  • 00:18:32.027 --> 00:18:34.029
  • He wants to fill you.
  • 00:18:34.029 --> 00:18:36.632
  • He wants to make you his earthen vessel.
  • 00:18:36.632 --> 00:18:38.834
  • He wants to make you his living sanctuary.
  • 00:18:38.834 --> 00:18:41.336
  • He wants to make you a temple of the most high god.
  • 00:18:41.336 --> 00:18:44.239
  • Don't be so busy on your work space
  • 00:18:44.239 --> 00:18:47.876
  • And in your workplace that you forget the divinity
  • 00:18:47.876 --> 00:18:50.913
  • Of the most high god at work.
  • 00:18:50.913 --> 00:18:52.281
  • On the inside of you, there is
  • 00:18:52.281 --> 00:18:54.016
  • An obligation to serve the lord with all your heart
  • 00:18:54.016 --> 00:18:57.586
  • And not for him, just to have all of you,
  • 00:18:57.586 --> 00:18:59.888
  • But for you to enjoy all of him.
  • 00:18:59.888 --> 00:19:03.926
  • The reality of this is many of us defend traditions
  • 00:19:04.927 --> 00:19:07.663
  • That god has already walked past.
  • 00:19:07.663 --> 00:19:12.701
  • And so we
  • 00:19:13.001 --> 00:19:14.102
  • Say things like, you can't wear that to church now.
  • 00:19:14.102 --> 00:19:25.747
  • Many of us defend traditions
  • 00:19:26.348 --> 00:19:27.683
  • That god has already walked past.
  • 00:19:27.683 --> 00:19:31.787
  • When the presence
  • 00:19:32.221 --> 00:19:33.055
  • Of the holy spirit moves,
  • 00:19:33.055 --> 00:19:36.291
  • Protocol states posted.
  • 00:19:36.291 --> 00:19:40.729
  • And if this is not his church,
  • 00:19:41.330 --> 00:19:44.666
  • Then it is our church.
  • 00:19:44.666 --> 00:19:47.069
  • And anything we build, we have to
  • 00:19:47.069 --> 00:19:48.904
  • Sustain grace for.
  • 00:19:48.904 --> 00:19:52.207
  • And herein lies the problem
  • 00:19:52.207 --> 00:19:54.376
  • With some churches.
  • 00:19:54.376 --> 00:19:58.413
  • My prayer for us
  • 00:19:58.814 --> 00:20:01.116
  • Is that we never get used to man's systems
  • 00:20:01.116 --> 00:20:04.953
  • Over the presence of the holy spirit.
  • 00:20:05.787 --> 00:20:11.493
  • God asked me this question
  • 00:20:12.060 --> 00:20:13.328
  • When day.
  • 00:20:13.328 --> 00:20:17.132
  • Is it possible?
  • 00:20:17.499 --> 00:20:20.569
  • That in some churches
  • 00:20:21.069 --> 00:20:23.405
  • I could not be there and they still have church?
  • 00:20:23.405 --> 00:20:27.609
  • And the reality is, yes,
  • 00:20:28.143 --> 00:20:31.246
  • Because we have things so organized and so orchestrated
  • 00:20:31.246 --> 00:20:34.283
  • Down to the minute,
  • 00:20:34.283 --> 00:20:35.951
  • The call sheet, the
  • 00:20:36.418 --> 00:20:37.486
  • Run clock, all these different things,
  • 00:20:37.486 --> 00:20:41.256
  • And sometimes we limit the power of the holy spirit
  • 00:20:41.256 --> 00:20:43.825
  • Because we got a program.
  • 00:20:43.825 --> 00:20:47.929
  • But when god brings you out,
  • 00:20:48.530 --> 00:20:51.466
  • A program can't hold you hostage.
  • 00:20:51.466 --> 00:20:57.839
  • And so my encouragement to you
  • 00:20:58.440 --> 00:21:00.008
  • Today is don't be more loyal to your duty
  • 00:21:00.008 --> 00:21:03.645
  • Than you are faithful to the divinity
  • 00:21:04.446 --> 00:21:06.415
  • Of jesus.
  • 00:21:06.415 --> 00:21:11.119
  • Scripture says
  • 00:21:11.453 --> 00:21:14.489
  • They entered the temple.
  • 00:21:14.489 --> 00:21:17.793
  • At daybreak
  • 00:21:17.793 --> 00:21:20.595
  • And began to teach.
  • 00:21:20.595 --> 00:21:23.565
  • Point number four is this.
  • 00:21:23.565 --> 00:21:26.935
  • Daybreak belongs to the obedient.
  • 00:21:27.602 --> 00:21:30.972
  • I'll say it again.
  • 00:21:31.406 --> 00:21:32.174
  • Daybreak belongs to the obedient.
  • 00:21:32.174 --> 00:21:36.878
  • Darkness could not delay
  • 00:21:37.379 --> 00:21:41.016
  • Of people who already decided to obey.
  • 00:21:41.016 --> 00:21:44.052
  • Daybreak belongs to the obedient.
  • 00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:48.023
  • And i just came to announce to someone today
  • 00:21:48.023 --> 00:21:51.360
  • I see the breaking of day.
  • 00:21:51.360 --> 00:21:55.997
  • I see god breaking things open for you.
  • 00:21:54.363 --> 00:21:59.901
  • I see
  • 00:21:59.901 --> 00:22:01.136
  • You walking out of the cell that tried to hold you hostage.
  • 00:22:01.136 --> 00:22:04.272
  • I see you standing and declaring the works of an almighty god
  • 00:22:04.272 --> 00:22:08.410
  • In obedience to the things that god is calling you to stand
  • 00:22:08.410 --> 00:22:12.447
  • And declare.
  • 00:22:12.447 --> 00:22:13.315
  • He is faithful to perform.
  • 00:22:13.315 --> 00:22:15.817
  • He is faithful to deliver.
  • 00:22:15.817 --> 00:22:17.886
  • He is faithful to set free because of the sun, set free.
  • 00:22:17.886 --> 00:22:25.327
  • Is free indeed.
  • 00:22:25.694 --> 00:22:28.930
  • Free indeed.
  • 00:22:28.930 --> 00:22:30.766
  • So daybreak.
  • 00:22:30.766 --> 00:22:33.735
  • Belongs
  • 00:22:33.735 --> 00:22:35.604
  • To the obedience.
  • 00:22:35.604 --> 00:22:38.039
  • Is it possible that you still feel trapped
  • 00:22:38.039 --> 00:22:40.275
  • In darkness because of disobedience?
  • 00:22:40.275 --> 00:22:42.144
  • Absolutely.
  • 00:22:42.144 --> 00:22:44.379
  • Is it possible you still feel trapped
  • 00:22:44.379 --> 00:22:46.214
  • In bondage because of disobedience?
  • 00:22:46.214 --> 00:22:47.916
  • Absolutely.
  • 00:22:47.916 --> 00:22:49.217
  • One of the things that i've learned about obedience
  • 00:22:49.217 --> 00:22:51.620
  • Is that the night can't hold
  • 00:22:51.620 --> 00:22:52.954
  • What obedience has already scheduled for sunrise.
  • 00:22:52.954 --> 00:23:05.167
  • So every new day,
  • 00:23:05.600 --> 00:23:08.303
  • It begins with someone who refused to wait
  • 00:23:08.303 --> 00:23:10.672
  • For daylight to believe.
  • 00:23:10.672 --> 00:23:13.875
  • Daybreak belongs to the obedient.
  • 00:23:13.875 --> 00:23:19.481
  • And i wonder
  • 00:23:19.815 --> 00:23:21.716
  • Whether any sons and daughters in this house,
  • 00:23:21.716 --> 00:23:23.819
  • Or maybe watching online around the world somewhere
  • 00:23:23.819 --> 00:23:27.355
  • That understands if it had not been for the lord
  • 00:23:27.355 --> 00:23:30.592
  • On my side.
  • 00:23:30.592 --> 00:23:36.765
  • Yeah, that's a good pity paty for yourself,
  • 00:23:37.666 --> 00:23:40.869
  • I said.
  • 00:23:40.869 --> 00:23:41.970
  • But i wish i had a group of people that understood
  • 00:23:41.970 --> 00:23:44.339
  • If it had not been for the lord,
  • 00:23:44.339 --> 00:23:48.376
  • Who is on
  • 00:23:48.677 --> 00:23:51.513
  • Not just my side, but your side,
  • 00:23:51.513 --> 00:23:54.282
  • If it had not been for the lord on my side,
  • 00:23:54.282 --> 00:23:58.453
  • Where in the world would i be?
  • 00:23:58.453 --> 00:24:10.365
  • The same god who opens
  • 00:24:10.832 --> 00:24:12.400
  • Prison doors at midnight.
  • 00:24:12.400 --> 00:24:15.670
  • Is the same god that breaks
  • 00:24:16.271 --> 00:24:17.739
  • Personal bondage off of you in the morning.
  • 00:24:17.739 --> 00:24:22.410
  • You know what god does?
  • 00:24:22.911 --> 00:24:25.380
  • He frees the soul before he frees the body.
  • 00:24:25.380 --> 00:24:29.451
  • Some of you are waiting for your body
  • 00:24:30.285 --> 00:24:31.987
  • To come into alignment. no, no, no.
  • 00:24:31.987 --> 00:24:33.788
  • Let your spirit come into alignment.
  • 00:24:33.788 --> 00:24:36.224
  • Remind yourself this is the day that the lord has made.
  • 00:24:36.224 --> 00:24:39.761
  • I choose to rejoice, making my mind up to rejoice.
  • 00:24:39.761 --> 00:24:43.865
  • I could choose to be sad, but i choose to rejoice.
  • 00:24:43.865 --> 00:24:46.835
  • I could choose the crown, but i choose to rejoice.
  • 00:24:46.835 --> 00:24:49.471
  • I could choose to wallow in my sin,
  • 00:24:49.471 --> 00:24:51.606
  • But i choose to rejoice.
  • 00:24:51.606 --> 00:24:52.974
  • I wonder to anybody, listen to me right now.
  • 00:24:52.974 --> 00:24:55.777
  • You choose to rejoice, be made glad in it.
  • 00:24:55.777 --> 00:24:59.614
  • Oh, clap your hands, all ye people,
  • 00:24:59.614 --> 00:25:03.118
  • And serve a god with a voice of triumph.
  • 00:25:03.118 --> 00:25:06.688
  • When god brings you out.
  • 00:25:07.188 --> 00:25:10.559
  • My prayer is that if you felt trapped,
  • 00:25:11.359 --> 00:25:14.029
  • Or you felt stuck, or like you were going
  • 00:25:14.029 --> 00:25:16.197
  • Through the rat race of life before you encountered
  • 00:25:16.197 --> 00:25:19.267
  • This broadcast, that you feel free.
  • 00:25:19.267 --> 00:25:22.304
  • Scripture teaches us that who the sun sets free is free
  • 00:25:22.304 --> 00:25:25.307
  • Indeed.
  • 00:25:25.307 --> 00:25:26.575
  • My prayer for you as we close this broadcast
  • 00:25:26.575 --> 00:25:28.910
  • Today is that you would encounter.
  • 00:25:28.910 --> 00:25:30.345
  • You would experience the liberty that only jesus can give
  • 00:25:30.345 --> 00:25:34.416
  • And something powerful that happens when god brings you out.
  • 00:25:34.416 --> 00:25:39.054
  • No man, no woman can trap you or like you in.
  • 00:25:39.054 --> 00:25:43.191
  • So i pray that you continue to run in the freedom
  • 00:25:43.191 --> 00:25:45.260
  • That god has provided for you today through the word of god.
  • 00:25:45.260 --> 00:25:48.463
  • My prayer is that if this broadcast has blessed you,
  • 00:25:48.463 --> 00:25:51.499
  • That you would pause for a moment, that you would pray,
  • 00:25:51.499 --> 00:25:54.769
  • That you would consider partnering with us,
  • 00:25:54.769 --> 00:25:56.871
  • Helping us continue to spread this message
  • 00:25:56.871 --> 00:25:58.840
  • We believe in to the various places
  • 00:25:58.840 --> 00:26:01.343
  • That are listening and leaning into moments like these.
  • 00:26:01.343 --> 00:26:04.312
  • A team is going to throw some information
  • 00:26:04.312 --> 00:26:05.680
  • At the bottom of the screen,
  • 00:26:05.680 --> 00:26:07.182
  • Pull out your phone, scan that qr code,
  • 00:26:07.182 --> 00:26:09.317
  • Write down that email address, allow us to partner
  • 00:26:09.317 --> 00:26:12.988
  • To advance the gospel of jesus christ.
  • 00:26:12.988 --> 00:26:16.191
  • Before we close, i want to set myself in agreement with you.
  • 00:26:16.191 --> 00:26:19.327
  • I want to pray for you. i want to pray with you.
  • 00:26:19.327 --> 00:26:21.463
  • I want to believe god
  • 00:26:21.463 --> 00:26:22.464
  • For the things that you're believing god for.
  • 00:26:22.464 --> 00:26:24.065
  • I am a firm believer that the word of god is true.
  • 00:26:24.065 --> 00:26:26.234
  • And it says where there are 2
  • 00:26:26.234 --> 00:26:27.435
  • Or 3 gathered in my name, there i am in the midst of them.
  • 00:26:27.435 --> 00:26:30.839
  • I believe god is right here with us.
  • 00:26:30.839 --> 00:26:32.974
  • And so right now, in jesus name,
  • 00:26:32.974 --> 00:26:34.843
  • I thank you for my brother and my sister
  • 00:26:34.843 --> 00:26:36.645
  • That are leaning into this moment right now.
  • 00:26:36.645 --> 00:26:38.480

  • You know the requests.
  • 00:26:41.116 --> 00:26:42.784
  • And so right now, in jesus name, i ask that you would perform
  • 00:26:42.784 --> 00:26:46.454
  • And provide for them according to your plans
  • 00:26:46.454 --> 00:26:48.657
  • And your purpose for their life.
  • 00:26:48.657 --> 00:26:50.325
  • In jesus name we pray. amen.
  • 00:26:50.325 --> 00:26:53.294
