- 0:13Speaker 1: Amen.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Go to the gospel of St. Luke chapter number 5
- 0:17Speaker 2: verse number 1 through 10 and there you will find
- 0:21Speaker 2: my assignment for today. Very familiar passage of scripture but
- 0:27Speaker 2: indulge me if you will as I share with you
- 0:30Speaker 2: those things that God has pointed out to me to
- 0:33Speaker 2: be relevant to this people at this hour. We are
- 0:36Speaker 2: on a trajectory. Every message is overlapping the other one.
- 0:41Speaker 2: building a staircase for us to climb out brick by
- 0:46Speaker 2: brick we're coming out in the name of Jesus not
- 0:51Speaker 2: only we but our emotions our mind our will our
- 0:54Speaker 2: attitude our dispositions are coming into recovery the trauma that
- 1:00Speaker 2: held us is breaking loose now in the name of
- 1:05Speaker 2: Jesus shout amen and it came to pass that as
- 1:12Speaker 2: the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God,
- 1:16Speaker 2: he stood by the lake of Gennesaret and saw two
- 1:21Speaker 2: ships standing by the lake. But the fishermen were gone
- 1:26Speaker 2: out of them and were washing their nets. And he
- 1:31Speaker 2: entered into one of the ships, which was Simon's, and
- 1:35Speaker 2: prayed him that he would thrust out a little from
- 1:37Speaker 2: the land. And he sat down and topped the people
- 1:44Speaker 2: out of the ship. Now when he had left speaking,
- 1:48Speaker 2: he said unto Simon, launch out into the deep and
- 1:53Speaker 2: let down your nets for drought. And Simon answering him
- 1:59Speaker 2: said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night
- 2:04Speaker 2: and have taken nothing. Nevertheless, at thy word, I will
- 2:11Speaker 2: let down the net. And when they had this done,
- 2:16Speaker 2: they enclosed a great multitude of fishes and their net
- 2:23Speaker 2: began to break. And they beckoned unto their partners, which
- 2:28Speaker 2: were in the other ships, that we need some help,
- 2:31Speaker 2: that they should come and help them. You got to
- 2:33Speaker 2: have some folk around you.
- 2:38Speaker 1: Oh, God.
- 2:39Speaker 2: You got to have some folk around you that can
- 2:41Speaker 2: help you, not that can pull you down. You need
- 2:44Speaker 2: some help. In fact, for what God is getting ready
- 2:47Speaker 2: to do in your life, you're going to need some help.
- 2:51Speaker 2: You're going to need some help. What God is getting
- 2:53Speaker 2: ready to give you is too big for your boat.
- 2:58Speaker 2: Glory to God. You need that in your spirit right now.
- 3:01Speaker 2: You're going to need some help to bring this in.
- 3:04Speaker 2: Glory to God. And they came and filled both the
- 3:08Speaker 2: ships so that they began to sink. I told you.
- 3:13Speaker 2: Good God Almighty. When Simon Peter saw it, he fell
- 3:18Speaker 2: down at Jesus' knees saying, depart from me. Depart from me.
- 3:23Speaker 1: For I, Lord, I am eight.
- 3:28Speaker 2: Sinful man, O Lord. For he was astonished and all
- 3:34Speaker 2: that were with him at the drought of the fishes
- 3:37Speaker 2: which they had taken. And so was also James and John,
- 3:43Speaker 2: the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And
- 3:47Speaker 2: Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not! From henceforth thou shalt
- 3:53Speaker 2: catch men.
- 3:57Speaker 1: Oh, God. Lord, have mercy.
- 4:03Speaker 2: My subject this morning is unlock your limitations. Unlock your limitations.
- 4:14Speaker 2: In other words, take the brakes off. There are no
- 4:20Speaker 2: limits to what God is going to do. Spirit of
- 4:25Speaker 2: the living God falls fresh on us this week. Stand
- 4:28Speaker 2: before your people for no other purpose but to share
- 4:31Speaker 2: with them what you have invested in me. Let the
- 4:35Speaker 2: word of God ravish and influence and consume all.
- 4:41Speaker 1: That hear it.
- 4:42Speaker 2: Let the word be made flesh while it's being preached.
- 4:46Speaker 2: Let it not just be recorded as just another sermon
- 4:50Speaker 2: but received as divine direction. I thank you in advance
- 4:54Speaker 2: for what you're going to do. Have your way in
- 4:58Speaker 2: this place. In Jesus' name, amen. You may be seated
- 5:03Speaker 2: in the presence of God. I have been ministering the
- 5:10Speaker 2: gospel for 45 years. Come September, it'll be 46 years
- 5:15Speaker 2: that I've been preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ. And
- 5:21Speaker 2: I have found many, many times that in spite of
- 5:24Speaker 2: the fact of massive.
- 5:26Speaker 1: Altar calls all over the world.
- 5:28Speaker 2: On almost every continent on the planet and seeing many,
- 5:31Speaker 2: many people come to Jesus, that they often come to
- 5:35Speaker 2: Jesus and still fall short of the abundant life that
- 5:41Speaker 2: Jesus has promised. That getting people converted is not the
- 5:46Speaker 2: end of my assignment. Because to convert them to Jesus
- 5:51Speaker 2: Christ and leave them stuck with a limited understanding of
- 5:57Speaker 2: who they are in him is to short circuit the
- 6:03Speaker 2: promises of God. I have found more times than not
- 6:10Speaker 2: what we believe isn't just one dimensional. It's not just
- 6:16Speaker 2: a straight line. It's not just a consistent belief without altercation, contradiction, controversy,
- 6:25Speaker 2: and pain. That when people say, I believe in God,
- 6:30Speaker 2: that doesn't mean that they are receiving everything that.
- 6:33Speaker 1: God has for them.
- 6:35Speaker 2: Because it is possible to have conflicting beliefs. For example,
- 6:42Speaker 2: it is possible to believe that God is, say, a healer.
- 6:48Speaker 2: That does not necessarily mean you've received the healing because
- 6:52Speaker 2: you also believe that you somehow brought this on yourself.
- 6:58Speaker 2: So while you brag about God being a healer, your
- 7:01Speaker 2: belief system nullifies you from walking into divine healing because
- 7:08Speaker 2: of your guilt or shame or convictions. Does not mean
- 7:13Speaker 2: that you don't truly believe that he's able. But will
- 7:17Speaker 2: he do it for you? Or it is possible to
- 7:22Speaker 2: believe that God is going to open a door for
- 7:24Speaker 2: you and yet believe you don't really belong in the door.
- 7:29Speaker 1: He opens.
- 7:31Speaker 2: These belief systems that we have often cancel out opportunities
- 7:37Speaker 2: that God has genuinely given to us and yet we
- 7:41Speaker 2: have difficulty walking into it because when we get in it,
- 7:45Speaker 2: we don't really feel like we belong there. So we
- 7:49Speaker 2: self-sabotage our way back down to the belief system.
- 7:56Speaker 1: From which we respond. Do you hear what I'm saying?
- 8:02Speaker 2: Faulty belief systems that all of us fight to varying
- 8:06Speaker 2: degrees can limit or delay what God has in store
- 8:10Speaker 2: for you. Faulty belief systems. They don't necessarily announce themselves.
- 8:16Speaker 2: They don't necessarily come with a warning tag. You may
- 8:19Speaker 2: not even be aware that you have a faulty belief system.
- 8:23Speaker 2: In fact, more times than not in the 45 years
- 8:26Speaker 2: of my ministry, most of the people I have found
- 8:28Speaker 2: with faulty belief systems were unaware that they had faulty
- 8:33Speaker 2: belief systems. They didn't really understand that they had faulty
- 8:37Speaker 2: belief systems. But it is true that you can have
- 8:41Speaker 2: a faulty belief system that stops you from getting what
- 8:45Speaker 2: God has for you. That cancels out opportunities. That the
- 8:51Speaker 2: very thing that you are praying, asking God to do,
- 8:55Speaker 2: you are doing things to destroy what you are asking
- 8:59Speaker 2: him to do. Because you have a faulty belief system,
- 9:04Speaker 2: you're asking God for a peaceful home and yet raising hell.
- 9:14Speaker 2: You're asking God to bring your daughter back and yet
- 9:16Speaker 2: pushing her away. Faulty belief systems can cause you to
- 9:22Speaker 2: have contradictions that cancel out what you're expecting God to
- 9:28Speaker 2: do in your life. because you don't feel worthy or
- 9:33Speaker 2: capable or as simple as comfortable. I was amazed we
- 9:40Speaker 2: started opening doors for formerly incarcerated people to have employment
- 9:45Speaker 2: and we got them the jobs and we got them
- 9:47Speaker 2: the opportunities but some of them when they got employed
- 9:52Speaker 2: felt so uncomfortable they stopped going to work. And then
- 9:56Speaker 2: we had to rethink the thing. It's a big leap
- 9:59Speaker 2: to go from being in a cell to an office.
- 10:06Speaker 2: The vernacular is different. The terminologies are different. The atmosphere
- 10:11Speaker 2: is different. The culture is different. And there is a
- 10:13Speaker 2: feeling of I don't fit here. And anytime you don't fit,
- 10:18Speaker 2: even though it's better and even though you prayed for it,
- 10:21Speaker 2: you will cancel it out and go back to what's
- 10:24Speaker 2: comfortable even if it is disturbing and self-destructive because it
- 10:30Speaker 2: is familiar. In other words, you're going to live on
- 10:34Speaker 2: the level of your belief system. If you feel comfortable
- 10:42Speaker 2: in poverty, you will stay there. And every time you
- 10:48Speaker 2: get out, you will mess it up till you get
- 10:51Speaker 2: back there because that's your belief system. It's not that
- 10:56Speaker 2: you don't want better. You like the idea better. You
- 11:00Speaker 2: shout about better. You dance about better. You ran up
- 11:03Speaker 2: here and threw $ 20 on the altar and danced back
- 11:06Speaker 2: to your seat for better. But when better came, better
- 11:09Speaker 2: looked funny. Better tasted funny. The manna from heaven that
- 11:17Speaker 2: God sent tastes funny to the children of Israel because
- 11:21Speaker 2: it was not familiar. They were used to the food
- 11:26Speaker 2: that came out of Egypt and they cried out for
- 11:29Speaker 2: the leeks and onions. It wasn't that the leeks and
- 11:32Speaker 2: onions were good. It was that they were familiar. This
- 11:39Speaker 2: all ties into a system of belief. And a faulty
- 11:43Speaker 2: belief system will eat at you and destroy you. Remember
- 11:47Speaker 2: the man with the demoniac son who Jesus asked him,
- 11:54Speaker 2: he said, Lord, if thou canst do anything. And Jesus said,
- 11:58Speaker 2: if you believe, he said, Lord, I believe. But help
- 12:04Speaker 2: my unbelief. It is possible to believe and still have unbelief. Oh,
- 12:13Speaker 2: thank you for the 10 real people that clapped at me.
- 12:16Speaker 2: It is possible to shout all over the church and
- 12:19Speaker 2: still get in the car and the devil tell you
- 12:21Speaker 2: God is not real. You're wasting your time and God
- 12:25Speaker 2: is not listening at you. God doesn't love you. God
- 12:27Speaker 2: doesn't care about you. God didn't think about you. God
- 12:30Speaker 2: is blessing those other people. You're not really one of them.
- 12:35Speaker 2: It is possible to shout and sing in the choir
- 12:39Speaker 2: and then go home and feel like an imposter. Because
- 12:45Speaker 2: you have faulty belief systems that allow you to truly believe. Lord,
- 12:51Speaker 2: I believe. There's no doubt about it.
- 12:53Speaker 3: I believe.
- 12:55Speaker 2: But I need help. Somebody holler help. I need help
- 13:01Speaker 2: with my unbelief. This man is aware of the contradictions
- 13:08Speaker 2: that he lives with every day. And the consequences of
- 13:12Speaker 2: the contradiction are obvious in his son. His son is
- 13:21Speaker 2: the fruit of contradictions. oft he cast himself into the
- 13:27Speaker 2: water and oft he cast himself into the fire. Two
- 13:30Speaker 2: completely different things. One that should cancel out the other.
- 13:36Speaker 2: Isn't it funny that he's oft into the water and
- 13:39Speaker 2: oft into the fire and the water should put out
- 13:42Speaker 2: the fire. But that's how complicated we are. One moment
- 13:48Speaker 2: we're on fire and one moment we're drowning. Lord, I believe.
- 13:58Speaker 2: Help my.
- 14:01Speaker 1: Unbelief.
- 14:03Speaker 2: These belief systems can be both environmental and genetic predispositions. Environmentally,
- 14:12Speaker 2: we believe on the level we are surrounded. When we
- 14:17Speaker 2: surround ourselves with certain elements, inevitably they develop a certain
- 14:23Speaker 2: belief system of what is appropriate for you. You think
- 14:29Speaker 2: on the level of the people you run with. Their
- 14:35Speaker 2: ideologies are contagious because they reward you when you dress
- 14:40Speaker 2: a certain way, they reward you when you look a
- 14:42Speaker 2: certain way, they reward you when you eat a certain food,
- 14:45Speaker 2: they reward you when you respond a certain way. And
- 14:48Speaker 2: when you break a rule, they start saying you acting funny.
- 14:53Speaker 2: And sometimes in order to fit in, we will dumb
- 14:56Speaker 2: down our realities and our potentials because we are affected
- 15:01Speaker 2: by our environment. Are you hearing what I'm saying to you?
- 15:06Speaker 2: But we also have a predisposed genetic disposition that is inherited,
- 15:12Speaker 2: passed down from generation to generation, both genetically and experientially
- 15:19Speaker 2: that affects our belief systems. What your mama said. What
- 15:26Speaker 2: your daddy said. What they didn't say. What your grandparents did.
- 15:33Speaker 2: What they didn't do. A predisposition that defines you with
- 15:38Speaker 2: a change even in your molecular structure of your DNA
- 15:43Speaker 2: before you ever even got here. We were talking the
- 15:46Speaker 2: other day. Some things you are scared of and you
- 15:49Speaker 2: don't even know why you're scared of it. Scared of heights,
- 15:55Speaker 2: don't know why, just scared of heights. Scared of water,
- 15:58Speaker 2: don't know why, just scared of water. Scared to be
- 16:01Speaker 2: by yourself, don't know why, don't even realize that this
- 16:04Speaker 2: stuff is passing down to you from generation to generation
- 16:09Speaker 2: that some traumatized grandmama passed on into her baby the
- 16:14Speaker 2: trauma that became your mama who passed it on to you.
- 16:19Speaker 2: She didn't even teach it to you. It just came
- 16:22Speaker 2: as a part of the package. My mother didn't believe
- 16:29Speaker 2: in women coming to her house on New Year's Day.
- 16:37Speaker 2: She did not believe in that. She said it was
- 16:39Speaker 2: bad luck. And the reason she thought it was bad
- 16:42Speaker 2: luck is because her mama thought it was bad luck. Now,
- 16:46Speaker 2: I don't believe that. but I do feel a little funny.
- 16:55Speaker 2: I'm not bad as mama, I will let you in,
- 16:58Speaker 2: but I don't say nothing. And before you talk about me,
- 17:05Speaker 2: how many of y'all cook cabbage and black eyed peas
- 17:09Speaker 2: on New Year's Day? If you don't have cabbage and
- 17:16Speaker 2: black eyed peas any other day and you come from
- 17:19Speaker 2: our culture, at least on that day, you're going to
- 17:22Speaker 2: have some cabbage and some black eyed peas because you're
- 17:26Speaker 2: supposed to. It's not written in no book anywhere. There's
- 17:31Speaker 2: no scripture for it. But all I know is when
- 17:34Speaker 2: you go in the grocery store, the cabbage is gone
- 17:37Speaker 2: and the black eyed peas are sold out. We don't
- 17:40Speaker 2: know why we eat it, but we eat. Just like
- 17:49Speaker 2: we don't know why we leave or we don't know
- 17:51Speaker 2: why we go through certain things that we go through.
- 17:54Speaker 2: We don't understand what is going on in our life.
- 17:56Speaker 2: That does not mean that we are in a situation.
- 18:00Speaker 2: Let's stop a minute and just pray for this brother
- 18:02Speaker 2: right here. I don't know what's going on, but I
- 18:04Speaker 2: know God is able. Spirit, point your hand that way.
- 18:07Speaker 2: Spirit of the living God, fall fresh on him right
- 18:11Speaker 2: now in the name of Jesus. You are a God
- 18:14Speaker 2: that's more than enough. Your healing and delivering power is
- 18:18Speaker 2: invincible and irrevocable. I thank you now that you got

- 18:39Speaker 2: the doctors through, let the doctors through. Right now, in
- 18:42Speaker 2: the name of Jesus, in the name of Jesus, send help, Lord,
- 18:47Speaker 2: send medicine, send ministry, send healing in the name of Jesus.
- 18:53Speaker 2: I want somebody to just start praising God for healing.

- 26:54Speaker 1: Oh, yes, Lord.
- 26:56Speaker 3: Yes, Lord.
- 26:58Speaker 1: I better not fool with that. That's the kind of
- 27:06Speaker 1: stuff that makes.
- 27:09Speaker 3: Me go to running.
- 27:15Speaker 2: Oh!
- 27:15Speaker 3: He's got it!
- 27:41Speaker 1: My God's got it.
- 27:43Speaker 3: My God's got it.
- 28:12Speaker 1: You've got to you've got.
- 28:31Speaker 2: To know that you know that that you know that
- 28:44Speaker 2: no weapon formed against you. It didn't say it wouldn't
- 28:52Speaker 2: be formed, it just said it won't prosper. Look at
- 28:57Speaker 2: somebody say the devil is a liar.
- 28:59Speaker 3: He's a liar.
- 29:23Speaker 2: So I want you to get this word. Be seated.
- 29:27Speaker 2: Hear ye the words of the Lord. This is just
- 29:31Speaker 2: another example of why we need our belief system to
- 29:36Speaker 2: be in such a state that in the time of trouble,
- 29:41Speaker 2: you don't have to go on a fast to get
- 29:45Speaker 2: a touch from God. Shando Boko Chai. You don't have
- 29:52Speaker 2: to go on a three-day fast or call your prayer
- 29:55Speaker 2: warriors or your intercessors or anybody else that you can
- 29:59Speaker 2: stand flat-footed and.
- 30:00Speaker 3: Say, Satan!
- 30:19Speaker 2: The body that gets you What I'm trying to do
- 30:26Speaker 2: is get you past all of these isms and schisms
- 30:30Speaker 2: and these things that we're doing that are making our
- 30:34Speaker 2: life harder. That are making our life more difficult. That
- 30:39Speaker 2: are making us not even understand what miracles are. This
- 30:43Speaker 2: generation thinks getting a new car is a miracle. Pray
- 30:47Speaker 2: for me that I can get a car. The devil
- 30:50Speaker 2: got a car. The dope dealer got a car. The
- 30:54Speaker 2: prostitutes got a car. You don't need God to get
- 30:57Speaker 2: a car. If you got a 7.0 score and a
- 31:01Speaker 2: little down payment, you get a car. A miracle is
- 31:04Speaker 2: when your leg grow back. A miracle is when you
- 31:07Speaker 2: had a heart attack and God raised you up.
- 31:10Speaker 1: A miracle.
- 31:11Speaker 2: Come on, somebody. We got to get back to real.
- 31:19Speaker 2: Your house ain't no miracle. A whole lot of people
- 31:22Speaker 2: got a house. I know it feels like a miracle
- 31:25Speaker 2: to you and I don't mind you being grateful, but
- 31:27Speaker 2: don't be ignorant. There are people who don't believe in
- 31:31Speaker 2: God got a house. But our belief system has so
- 31:38Speaker 2: encapsulated us by the culture that we're in that we
- 31:43Speaker 2: have brought God down to the culture we're in. And
- 31:47Speaker 2: we have made him Lord over stuff. And it's because
- 31:59Speaker 2: we have these innate tendencies to be affected by the
- 32:04Speaker 2: culture around us. The culture around us. In fact, try
- 32:08Speaker 2: all you want to, but it affects you. You have
- 32:11Speaker 2: to build up walls around your spirit not to let
- 32:14Speaker 2: it affect you. It affects everything. It affects the way
- 32:18Speaker 2: you dress. It affects the way you think. And it
- 32:21Speaker 2: varies from region to region, from territory to territory. You
- 32:24Speaker 2: got a church culture. You got a corporate culture. You
- 32:28Speaker 2: got an entertainment culture. Even in the same city, there
- 32:33Speaker 2: are different cultures and different regions and area codes and
- 32:37Speaker 2: zip codes. And there are also different spirits. in different
- 32:44Speaker 2: regions of the city that create a culture. The power
- 32:50Speaker 2: that culture has over cognition is what I'm talking about.
- 32:55Speaker 2: It's over cognition over your ability to think thoroughly through
- 33:01Speaker 2: the process that you find yourself in a situation where
- 33:05Speaker 2: the culture has affected your common sense. About a year ago,
- 33:10Speaker 2: a bird flew in my house. A bird flew into
- 33:14Speaker 2: my house. Mama said when a bird fly in the house,
- 33:16Speaker 2: it means somebody gonna die. Oh, y'all laugh at me
- 33:26Speaker 2: if you want to. I don't believe it, but I
- 33:30Speaker 2: did get him.
- 33:30Speaker 1: Out of there.
- 33:31Speaker 2: I said you got to go. Then I had to
- 33:36Speaker 2: fight the residue of stuff that I know don't even
- 33:44Speaker 2: make any sense, but it leaves a residue on you.
- 33:51Speaker 2: I told a friend of mine, they kept talking about
- 33:53Speaker 2: how old they were. I said, you ain't that old, stop.
- 33:57Speaker 2: You only old because you think you old. The president
- 34:01Speaker 2: don't think he old. The last president didn't think he
- 34:07Speaker 2: was old. Hillary don't think she old. We're the only
- 34:12Speaker 2: ones sitting up in our 60s talking about child life.
- 34:15Speaker 2: I got my plot. Other people going back to school,
- 34:21Speaker 2: getting a degree at 70. And these belief systems cause
- 34:29Speaker 2: you to experience failure in a way that is important.
- 34:33Speaker 2: I was reading about this one anorexic girl whose dream
- 34:37Speaker 2: was to go to college and to be a doctor.
- 34:40Speaker 2: And she was smart and she was bright, but she
- 34:44Speaker 2: couldn't go to school because she, on the other hand,
- 34:48Speaker 2: she believed she was fat. So she was so anorexic
- 34:52Speaker 2: that she stopped eating. And she stopped eating until she
- 34:56Speaker 2: got so weak she couldn't go to school. Conflicting beliefs
- 35:02Speaker 2: kill dreams. Y'all can't eat like this. This is too
- 35:09Speaker 2: heavy for y'all. Y'all can't think like this. Conflicting beliefs
- 35:16Speaker 2: make you pray for Boaz. But you heard at the barbershop,
- 35:21Speaker 2: all men are dogs. Conflicting belief systems get in your
- 35:30Speaker 2: head and cancel out your progress and stop you from
- 35:34Speaker 2: reaching what you're trying to reach. Are you hearing what
- 35:37Speaker 2: I'm saying? And all of a sudden you find yourself,
- 35:41Speaker 2: it's difficult to educate people past their belief system. A
- 35:46Speaker 2: belief system is more than a collection of beliefs. It's
- 35:50Speaker 2: a network, it's an interconnection, one with another, it's a system.
- 35:56Speaker 2: It's a system. We've been trapped in a system for
- 36:01Speaker 2: years and years. A system of benevolence. A system of benevolence.
- 36:10Speaker 2: A system of desperation. A system of feeling inadequate. A
- 36:16Speaker 2: system of having to prove you're human. A system of
- 36:20Speaker 2: trying to validate your own presence in the earth. There's
- 36:23Speaker 2: a system at work. And systems are invisible, but they
- 36:29Speaker 2: manifest themselves in tangible ways. Are you hearing what I'm saying?
- 36:35Speaker 2: And people penalize you when you go against the system.
- 36:38Speaker 2: They lock you out. You're not one of us. And
- 36:43Speaker 2: our desperate need to belong somewhere for fear of being
- 36:47Speaker 2: isolated makes us submit to systems that are beneath your dreams.
- 36:52Speaker 2: But before I finish preaching today, I'm going to wake
- 36:55Speaker 2: up somebody's dream. I'm going to light a fire up
- 36:59Speaker 2: under somebody today. I'm going to bring something to your
- 37:02Speaker 2: spirit that's going to shake you loose. It's a highly,
- 37:10Speaker 2: highly coherent but not totally consistent network where constituents' beliefs
- 37:15Speaker 2: support each other logically and largely. They do not contradict
- 37:21Speaker 2: one another. They hang around. They build up a fortress
- 37:24Speaker 2: and a family until everybody around you has a similar
- 37:29Speaker 2: set of beliefs.
- 37:30Speaker 1: Yes.
- 37:33Speaker 2: You don't believe it, break into something that's existed 10 years.
- 37:37Speaker 2: Get a job in an office that's existed 10 years.
- 37:40Speaker 2: There's what's written in the manual and then there's the
- 37:44Speaker 2: unspoken culture of the organization. And when you're an outsider,
- 37:49Speaker 2: until you understand the culture, it becomes very difficult to
- 37:53Speaker 2: function in that environment because culture cancels out cognition. Culture
- 38:03Speaker 2: had gotten into Hebrews so deeply that even when they
- 38:07Speaker 2: knew Pharaoh was dead, they danced on top of it,
- 38:10Speaker 2: knew he was dead. And when they got ready to
- 38:12Speaker 2: make a picture of what God looked like, they made
- 38:15Speaker 2: the Egyptians God because they had gotten out of Egypt,
- 38:18Speaker 2: but Egypt hadn't gotten out of them. That's why just
- 38:23Speaker 2: educating people and sending them to school to get degrees
- 38:26Speaker 2: doesn't necessarily mean that they're going to be liberated. Because
- 38:29Speaker 2: the first time you make them mad, they're going to
- 38:32Speaker 2: pop their neck and go back to where they came
- 38:34Speaker 2: from if you don't break the cultural belief system that
- 38:41Speaker 2: holds you hostage. I'm talking about a complete overhaul of
- 38:48Speaker 2: your belief system. Now, if keeping your friends is important
- 38:53Speaker 2: to you, leave now. If everybody clapping for you in
- 39:01Speaker 2: your circle is important to you, leave now. But if
- 39:04Speaker 2: getting up is important to you and going on with
- 39:07Speaker 2: your life, stay tuned. I got something for you. Are
- 39:09Speaker 2: you with me? I want to tear down the whole
- 39:13Speaker 2: system and potentially increase the level in your life of
- 39:17Speaker 2: your ability to receive what God has for you. And
- 39:21Speaker 2: I want you to open your heart and begin to receive. Well,
- 39:24Speaker 2: what in the world are you talking about, Bishop? What
- 39:26Speaker 2: does that have to do with Luke chapter 5, verse 1?
- 39:29Speaker 2: I'll tell you why. Because when Jesus was preaching in Gennesaret,
- 39:35Speaker 2: And he comes down to Simon. Simon is not yet
- 39:38Speaker 2: called Peter. He's not even a disciple. He doesn't even
- 39:42Speaker 2: know that much about who Jesus is and what's going on.
- 39:45Speaker 2: Simon is just a fisherman. When Jesus encounters Simon, the
- 39:50Speaker 2: Bible said that Simon was washing his nets. His belief
- 39:57Speaker 2: system said, it's over. They had told all night and
- 40:03Speaker 2: caught nothing. And his belief system had taught him that
- 40:08Speaker 2: if you can't catch at night, you can't catch at all.
- 40:15Speaker 2: His limited belief system has left him in a place
- 40:19Speaker 2: of giving up on what he needed to make his
- 40:22Speaker 2: business work. And when Jesus came along, that's right, he
- 40:27Speaker 2: gave up. When Jesus came along, Jesus is confronting fishermen
- 40:32Speaker 2: who are washing their nets, which is a sign I
- 40:35Speaker 2: have given up. And I want to know, is there
- 40:38Speaker 2: anybody in here who's washing your nets? Who has decided
- 40:44Speaker 2: it's too late, I'm too old, I'm too fat, I'm
- 40:47Speaker 2: too this, I'm too that, I'm too thin, I'm too short,
- 40:51Speaker 2: I'm too whatever it is that made you wash your nets.
- 40:56Speaker 2: I want to challenge you today because Jesus is about
- 41:01Speaker 2: bringing Simon into the awareness that his belief system is wrong.
- 41:09Speaker 2: Washing your nets means you have given up hope that
- 41:13Speaker 2: you can go any further and you have settled to
- 41:17Speaker 2: be on the sidelines of life rather than to be
- 41:21Speaker 2: in the game. Made yourself comfortable with an empty boat,
- 41:30Speaker 2: no fish, which means no business, and you have decided
- 41:36Speaker 2: this is as far as you can go. And some
- 41:39Speaker 2: of you even justified by saying, if the Lord would
- 41:42Speaker 2: have meant for me to catch fish, He would have
- 41:46Speaker 2: blessed me to catch fish. So it must not be
- 41:48Speaker 2: God's will for me to catch any fish. Well, here
- 41:51Speaker 2: comes God walking in Jesus down to the seashore and
- 41:56Speaker 2: Simon is washing his nets. Washing your nets means deciding
- 42:04Speaker 2: that nobody will ever love you. Washing your nets means
- 42:09Speaker 2: deciding that you can't go any higher or any further
- 42:13Speaker 2: than where you've gone. Washing your nets is giving up
- 42:17Speaker 2: on your dream and deciding that all of your effort
- 42:20Speaker 2: was for naught. Because it didn't work like he thought
- 42:23Speaker 2: it was going to work, he quit. He's alive, but
- 42:28Speaker 2: he quit. He's breathing, but he quit. He's functioning, but
- 42:33Speaker 2: he quit. You'd be surprised at the people in here
- 42:36Speaker 2: that are breathing and dead. They breathing, but they quit.
- 42:44Speaker 2: They got their makeup on, but they quit. They got
- 42:47Speaker 2: their dress on, but they quit. They got their suit on,
- 42:49Speaker 2: but they quit. They came to church, but they quit.
- 42:51Speaker 2: They quit long time ago. Let me tell you something.
- 42:54Speaker 2: Divorces don't happen when the papers come. People can quit
- 43:03Speaker 2: and still be fixing breakfast. Do you hear what I'm
- 43:07Speaker 2: saying to you? People can quit and still be giving roses.
- 43:13Speaker 2: Quitting isn't just a removal of the body from the situation.
- 43:17Speaker 2: It's a removal of the spirit from the situation. And
- 43:20Speaker 2: Peter's spirit has been broken and he's washing his nets.
- 43:27Speaker 2: And Jesus comes down there and disrupts everything that Peter believes.
- 43:37Speaker 2: Whenever Jesus comes, let me warn you, he will disrupt everything.
- 43:42Speaker 2: I know you want a nice, neat little Jesus that
- 43:45Speaker 2: fits comfortable inside your belief system, that won't shake up anything,
- 43:50Speaker 2: that won't get you out of your comfort zone, that
- 43:53Speaker 2: won't make you have to go for yourself, that won't
- 43:55Speaker 2: make you have to stand for yourself. I know you
- 43:57Speaker 2: want a nice little, neat little Jesus that you can
- 44:00Speaker 2: fit into a package of what you've been taught about Jesus.
- 44:03Speaker 2: But Jesus was a rabble rouser. Jesus was radical. Jesus
- 44:08Speaker 2: was a yoke breaker. Wherever Jesus went, he terrorized the city.
- 44:13Speaker 2: He turned it upside down. If Jesus got in a city,
- 44:17Speaker 2: all bets were off on how things were going to go.
- 44:21Speaker 2: And everything was going according to plan until Jesus come.
- 44:25Speaker 2: None of somebody tell him Jesus is coming. Jesus is coming.
- 44:29Speaker 2: Jesus is coming. He's coming into your house. He's coming
- 44:32Speaker 2: into your finances. He's coming into your business. He's coming
- 44:36Speaker 2: into your life. He's coming into your plans. He's coming
- 44:39Speaker 2: into your future. And everything you thought you were through with,
- 44:44Speaker 2: God is getting ready to do a new thing. God
- 44:47Speaker 2: is getting ready to do something radical. God is ready
- 44:50Speaker 2: to start an uprising. And Jesus walks over. He don't
- 45:07Speaker 2: even know whose boat it is. He just gets on
- 45:10Speaker 2: the boat. And then says to Simon, thrust out a
- 45:18Speaker 2: little from land.
- 45:21Speaker 1: Listen at this.
- 45:23Speaker 2: And all of a sudden you see Simon have to
- 45:27Speaker 2: put down his nets and get back on the boat.
- 45:35Speaker 2: That alone is revival. To stop feeling sorry for yourself
- 45:45Speaker 2: and talking about what didn't work and how you worked
- 45:47Speaker 2: so hard and how you put so much into it
- 45:50Speaker 2: and how you told all night and nothing came through.
- 45:53Speaker 2: You ain't got time to rehearse all that stuff.
- 45:55Speaker 1: That's over. That's over. That's over.
- 45:56Speaker 2: You can't do nothing about that.
- 45:57Speaker 1: That's over.
- 45:58Speaker 2: You can't fix that, that's over. You can't change that.
- 46:00Speaker 1: That's over.
- 46:01Speaker 2: That's over, that's over, that's over, that's over. You are
- 46:03Speaker 2: spinning up your today, rehearsing your yesterday. Don't let your
- 46:08Speaker 2: yesterday steal your today. That's over, that's over, that's over.
- 46:11Speaker 2: That's over, that's over, that's over. Maybe there's a higher
- 46:15Speaker 2: purpose for the boat than what you know. Jesus is
- 46:22Speaker 2: thrust out a little from land and Jesus turns Peter's
- 46:27Speaker 2: business into a platform. This is the only time in
- 46:33Speaker 2: scripture that I know of where Jesus turns a boat
- 46:38Speaker 2: into a podium and Jesus gets on the boat and
- 46:42Speaker 2: sits down and the crowd is all on the beach
- 46:48Speaker 2: and he thrust out from the land and turned the
- 46:51Speaker 2: boat into a pulpit and he sits in the pulpit
- 46:58Speaker 2: And he teaches. I do not know what he taught,
- 47:03Speaker 2: but it must have been mesmerizing enough that he could
- 47:06Speaker 2: sit on a boat without a mic that was thrust
- 47:09Speaker 2: out from the land and not lose a crowd. Good God.
- 47:14Speaker 2: Can't nobody preach like Jesus. If Jesus gets into a place,
- 47:18Speaker 2: he'll turn it upside down. Do not know that Jesus
- 47:22Speaker 2: never had a PA system, never had a microphone, never
- 47:26Speaker 2: had a camera, never had a flyer, never had a
- 47:29Speaker 2: business card, and yet he preached to thousands of people, 5,000 men,
- 47:34Speaker 2: not to mention women and children, and people would rather
- 47:36Speaker 2: faint than miss hearing him preach. He didn't even have
- 47:39Speaker 2: to jump. He didn't have to hoop. He didn't holler.
- 47:42Speaker 2: Jesus sat down and the crowd didn't leave. Jesus sat
- 47:48Speaker 2: when he preached. He sat on the Mount of Olives
- 47:51Speaker 2: and preached the Beatitudes. Sit on me, Jesus. Sit on me, Jesus.
- 48:01Speaker 2: Sit on me, Jesus. What I'm doing ain't working. Sit
- 48:08Speaker 2: on me, Jesus. Jesus sat down on the boat and
- 48:15Speaker 2: he began to minister. And as he began to minister,
- 48:22Speaker 2: the Bible said when he had finished preaching. Now notice this.
- 48:26Speaker 2: This is interesting. It never tells us what he preached.
- 48:33Speaker 2: It tells us that he preached. It brings us all
- 48:35Speaker 2: the way up to the boat. The boat thrust out
- 48:37Speaker 2: from land. Jesus sits down and starts to preach again.
- 48:40Speaker 2: They'd never tell us what he preached. They'd just say
- 48:44Speaker 2: when he had finished. They'd say when he had finished.
- 48:49Speaker 2: There are some things that God has kept a mystery.
- 48:54Speaker 2: Because the real power here isn't just in what he said,
- 48:58Speaker 2: but what he did. And when he began to speak
- 49:04Speaker 2: these words and had ended speaking, he now says to Simon,
- 49:10Speaker 2: And wait a minute, maybe this is not about the sermon.
- 49:15Speaker 2: Maybe this is about Simon. Maybe the sermon is just
- 49:22Speaker 2: the vehicle that Jesus traveled to capture Simon's attention. Maybe
- 49:28Speaker 2: it's Simon that Jesus is after. Maybe it's Simon that
- 49:32Speaker 2: Jesus wants to get to and make him understand what's
- 49:36Speaker 2: going on. And he says to Simon, He says to
- 49:40Speaker 2: Simon what he told me to tell you. Launch out
- 49:46Speaker 2: into the deep. Launch out. They don't hear me, Lord.
- 49:58Speaker 2: I wish I had a group or a choir, somebody.
- 50:00Speaker 2: Is anybody ready for this? Launch out into the deep.
- 50:07Speaker 2: Get out of the shallow water. Go out into the deep.
- 50:17Speaker 2: Launch out into the deep. God's got something for you,
- 50:22Speaker 2: but it's in the deep. Look at somebody and say,
- 50:26Speaker 2: you ain't deep enough. The reason it's not happening for you,
- 50:31Speaker 2: the reason you're not getting it, the reason you don't
- 50:33Speaker 2: get the breakthrough, the reason it's not materializing in your
- 50:36Speaker 2: life is that you haven't gone deep enough. And Peter says,
- 50:40Speaker 2: Simon says, I can't go, Lord. I've been toiling all
- 50:43Speaker 2: night and I haven't. I didn't ask you about last night.
- 50:55Speaker 2: Now somebody say, I'm going out there. I'm going all
- 50:59Speaker 2: the way out there. I don't see no fish. I
- 51:06Speaker 2: see no sign of fish, but I'm going all the
- 51:09Speaker 2: way out there. I was getting ready to give up,
- 51:11Speaker 2: but I'm getting ready to have a paradigm shift. Devil,
- 51:15Speaker 2: you thought I was going to quit. Psych. You thought
- 51:18Speaker 2: I was finished.
- 51:19Speaker 1: Psych.
- 51:20Speaker 2: You thought I was done.
- 51:22Speaker 3: Psych.
- 51:22Speaker 2: You thought you had me down, didn't you?
- 51:24Speaker 3: Psych.
- 51:25Speaker 2: I ain't down. I'm going out into the deep. Nevertheless,
- 51:29Speaker 2: at thy word. I am tired of living within Limitations.
- 51:48Speaker 2: I'm tired of coloring inside of the lines. I'm tired
- 51:52Speaker 2: of being a good little boy and eating my apple
- 51:54Speaker 2: and going to bed. I'm getting ready to launch out
- 51:57Speaker 2: into the deep. I'm getting ready to get radical. I'm
- 52:01Speaker 2: getting ready to go to the next level. Somebody's watching
- 52:04Speaker 2: me online. You don't realize that the only reason God
- 52:06Speaker 2: gave you a business is so that it could be
- 52:09Speaker 2: his platform. And God has maneuvered you into a position
- 52:13Speaker 2: so that he could get the glory out of your life.
- 52:16Speaker 2: And you're frustrated trying to work out the problems in
- 52:19Speaker 2: the business. The problem isn't in the business. The problem
- 52:22Speaker 2: is in you. When God gets your attention, everything in
- 52:28Speaker 2: your business is.
- 52:29Speaker 1: Going to change.
- 52:30Speaker 2: Everything in your life is going to change. Everything on
- 52:33Speaker 2: the boat is going to change. Launch out into the deep.
- 52:44Speaker 2: Somebody holler deeper.
- 52:45Speaker 3: Deeper.
- 52:48Speaker 2: Bishop, how can I go deeper? I'm in a pandemic.
- 52:51Speaker 2: I don't care what you're in. When God says, go
- 52:53Speaker 2: into the deep, go into the deep. Stop telling me
- 52:56Speaker 2: about the last two years. I don't care nothing about that.
- 53:00Speaker 2: I want to tell you about the next two years.
- 53:02Speaker 2: God said, launch into the deep. Launch into the deep.
- 53:06Speaker 2: Just when they think you're going to wash your nets.
- 53:08Speaker 2: Just when they think you're going to quit. Just when
- 53:10Speaker 2: they think you're going to stay a Burger King.
- 53:13Speaker 3: Launch out!
- 53:20Speaker 2: Who am I preaching to? Look at your neighbor and
- 53:24Speaker 2: tell them I'm getting ready to launch. If you can't launch,
- 53:28Speaker 2: you can't go. If you can't launch, you can't go.
- 53:32Speaker 2: If you ain't with me, you can't go. I am
- 53:35Speaker 2: no longer willing to stay on the shoreline to keep
- 53:39Speaker 2: you company. I'm going to launch out into the deep
- 53:42Speaker 2: if I got to launch by myself. If my mama
- 53:46Speaker 2: don't go, if my daddy don't go, if my sister
- 53:49Speaker 2: and my brother don't go, I'm going to launch out
- 53:52Speaker 2: into the deep because I have permission. And once I
- 53:57Speaker 2: have permission, I can do it. I know it's not
- 54:01Speaker 2: supposed to work in the daytime. The fish are normally
- 54:05Speaker 2: biting at night. But if Jesus says it, it's going
- 54:08Speaker 2: to happen at any time. Just when the devil thought
- 54:12Speaker 2: it wasn't going to happen. Just when you thought you
- 54:15Speaker 2: missed your season. Just when you.
- 54:17Speaker 3: Thought it was over.
- 54:18Speaker 2: God said, launch out into the deep. And suddenly I
- 54:28Speaker 2: realized something. Simon owns the boat, but Jesus owns the sea.
- 54:35Speaker 3: Amen.
- 54:46Speaker 2: I said, Simon owns the boat, but Jesus owns the sea.
- 54:51Speaker 2: And what you want ain't in the boat, it's in
- 54:54Speaker 2: the sea. And Jesus knows where your fish are. Slap
- 55:00Speaker 2: somebody and tell them, he knows where the fish are.
- 55:05Speaker 2: He knows, he knows, he knows, he knows, he knows,
- 55:07Speaker 2: he knows, he knows where the fish are. Wait a minute.
- 55:28Speaker 2: Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. It's
- 55:30Speaker 2: the wrong time. Ain't nobody fishing. All the boats are docked.
- 55:35Speaker 2: Everybody's quiet. Everybody's being passive. Everybody's laid back. Peter, the
- 55:40Speaker 2: only fool out there in the middle of the water
- 55:43Speaker 2: in the middle of the day at a time when
- 55:45Speaker 2: no fishermen would be out in the water because when
- 55:48Speaker 2: the sun goes up, the fish go down. They eat
- 55:51Speaker 2: at night or early in the morning. And at a
- 55:53Speaker 2: time there's not supposed to be fish, Jesus says, launch
- 55:57Speaker 2: into the deep. Whoever I'm preaching to is not even
- 56:00Speaker 2: supposed to work like it's going to work. You get
- 56:03Speaker 2: ready to break a rule. You get ready to go
- 56:06Speaker 2: into another dimension. You get ready to do something out
- 56:09Speaker 2: of season. It don't even make sense, but God's going
- 56:13Speaker 2: to do it. You thought it was too late, but
- 56:16Speaker 2: God's going to do it. Launch out into the deep.
- 56:23Speaker 2: Shake yourself like this. I break every limitation that's been
- 56:28Speaker 2: on you. I break every limitation that held you back.
- 56:31Speaker 2: I break every limitation that stood in between you and
- 56:34Speaker 2: what God said he's going to do. This is about
- 56:45Speaker 2: unlocking your limitations. This is about kicking the brakes off.
- 56:51Speaker 2: Have you ever tried to drive with the emergency brake on?
- 56:54Speaker 2: You can do it, but it's, God's getting ready to
- 56:59Speaker 2: kick the brakes off. He's getting ready to unlock your limitation.
- 57:04Speaker 2: That drag that's been in your life, that undertow that's
- 57:07Speaker 2: been in your life. The Lord sent me here this
- 57:09Speaker 2: morning to tell you, he's going to unlock your limitation.
- 57:13Speaker 2: You've been frustrated. You've been tied down. You even gave
- 57:16Speaker 2: up and started washing your nets, but stop washing your nets.
- 57:20Speaker 2: It's time to launch your boats. you own the boat
- 57:29Speaker 2: but he owns the sea and when they launched out
- 57:37Speaker 2: into the deep they dropped their net watch this this
- 57:43Speaker 2: is important I'm almost finished they dropped their net net
- 57:48Speaker 2: N-E-T N-E-T they didn't bring enough They didn't bring enough.
- 57:57Speaker 2: They thinking too small. They thinking too limited. They only
- 58:01Speaker 2: had one net with them. When I met them, they
- 58:05Speaker 2: were washing nets, but they only put one net on
- 58:09Speaker 2: the boat. Anytime you see Jesus on the boat, you
- 58:14Speaker 2: better bring everything you got because whatever God is talking
- 58:19Speaker 2: to you about is bigger than anything you ever did
- 58:23Speaker 2: in your life. I came to tell you it's bigger.
- 58:27Speaker 2: Are you hearing me? It's bigger than you think it is.
- 58:30Speaker 2: Are you hearing me online? It's bigger than you think
- 58:33Speaker 2: it is. That little net you got ain't going to
- 58:36Speaker 2: be enough because God's going to do exceedingly. abundantly above
- 58:42Speaker 2: all ye may ask or think you didn't bring enough
- 58:45Speaker 2: for what God is about to jump in your lap
- 58:49Speaker 2: pressed down shaken together running over God's going to take
- 58:54Speaker 2: you into overflow help.
- 59:02Speaker 3: Somebody holler help.
- 59:08Speaker 2: You're about to get in a good time. You're about
- 59:11Speaker 2: to get in good trouble. This ain't bad trouble. This
- 59:14Speaker 2: is good trouble. This is the kind of help you
- 59:17Speaker 2: need when you have underestimated what God is about to
- 59:20Speaker 2: do in your life and you realize that what you
- 59:24Speaker 2: brought is not enough for where he's taking you. It's
- 59:37Speaker 2: all about the nets. It's all about the nets. It's
- 59:40Speaker 2: all about the nets. When we start out, we're washing nets.
- 59:43Speaker 2: And when we get to the boat, we're breaking net,
- 59:47Speaker 2: a net, a net. Why didn't you throw everything you
- 59:51Speaker 2: had at it? Peter, why didn't you throw more at it?
- 59:56Speaker 2: If Jesus says drop your nets, you should have dropped
- 59:59Speaker 2: everything you had. But because of your belief system, Your
- 1:00:08Speaker 2: reluctance to even go in the first place. You only
- 1:00:13Speaker 2: threw a net at it. Jesus ain't no fisherman no way.
- 1:00:23Speaker 2: He a carpenter son. What does he know about fish?
- 1:00:26Speaker 2: I'm just going to placate him and throw a net.
- 1:00:33Speaker 2: One net and so many fish. that had been waiting
- 1:00:39Speaker 2: on obedience. God is waiting on obedience. As soon as
- 1:00:48Speaker 2: you stop playing pity pat with God and break down
- 1:00:53Speaker 2: to obedience and do what he said do, God's got
- 1:00:57Speaker 2: the fish on reserve. They're waiting on you. The money's
- 1:01:01Speaker 2: not going to be a problem. The buildings are not
- 1:01:04Speaker 2: going to be a problem. The employees are not going
- 1:01:06Speaker 2: to be a problem. God's got everything you need waiting
- 1:01:10Speaker 2: on you. But because you keep throwing a little bitty
- 1:01:13Speaker 2: net at it, God said you're going to break your net.
- 1:01:21Speaker 2: Because you're just talking about enough and you're with El
- 1:01:33Speaker 2: Shaddai who is more than enough. So here's Peter out there, Simon,
- 1:01:42Speaker 2: and he's thrown out his net. And so many fish
- 1:01:46Speaker 2: are in the net that the net that he was
- 1:01:49Speaker 2: washing is now breaking. And he has to, help!
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: No, no, no.
- 1:01:59Speaker 2: Help! They went back on the shoreline.
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: Help!
- 1:02:07Speaker 3: Help!
- 1:02:09Speaker 2: And here they come getting on their boats and they're
- 1:02:12Speaker 2: coming out to tug it in. In order for you
- 1:02:15Speaker 2: to get what God is about to give you, you're
- 1:02:18Speaker 2: going to need partnerships. Whoever's taking this message seriously, let
- 1:02:23Speaker 2: me drop this on you. You're gonna need strategic alignments.
- 1:02:26Speaker 2: You're gonna have to have backup in place to receive
- 1:02:29Speaker 2: on the level that you're going to right now. You
- 1:02:32Speaker 2: cannot do this like you normally do it. You have
- 1:02:35Speaker 2: got to have a network because you're coming against a system.
- 1:02:40Speaker 2: you're coming against a system. And anytime you're coming against
- 1:02:44Speaker 2: a system, it takes a system to overcome a system.
- 1:02:49Speaker 2: And so when he hollers for help, he gets backup
- 1:02:52Speaker 2: coming from every direction. And even when his boys come
- 1:02:55Speaker 2: in and they start dropping in their nets, they still
- 1:02:59Speaker 2: were about to break. How many fish had Peter missed?
- 1:03:11Speaker 2: All of these fish were in the Gennesaret Lake. He
- 1:03:16Speaker 2: just left. God didn't create the fish. They were there.
- 1:03:27Speaker 2: Look at how much he missed. My father ran a
- 1:03:30Speaker 2: janitorial service. Used to make me mad and fire. We'd
- 1:03:33Speaker 2: be cleaning up offices, sweeping the office. He'd come in
- 1:03:36Speaker 2: behind me and sweep the office I just swept and say, boy,
- 1:03:39Speaker 2: look at what you missed. Where was you sweeping? Where
- 1:03:45Speaker 2: was going on? Look at this, look at this, look
- 1:03:48Speaker 2: at what you missed. And I couldn't say nothing. Because
- 1:03:52Speaker 2: I knew he didn't throw the dirt down. Do you
- 1:03:58Speaker 2: have any idea what you missed? While you washing your
- 1:04:07Speaker 2: nets and you think you through? There's so many fish
- 1:04:12Speaker 2: waiting on you to obey God that when you obey God,
- 1:04:18Speaker 2: your net and neither the net of your partners will
- 1:04:21Speaker 2: be enough. But together they pulled it in. It's going
- 1:04:29Speaker 2: to stretch you. It's going to stretch you. It's going
- 1:04:33Speaker 2: to take you out of your comfort zone. It's going
- 1:04:36Speaker 2: to challenge your belief systems. It's going to come against
- 1:04:39Speaker 2: all the things that have been inbred in your head
- 1:04:42Speaker 2: that define you. But it's yours. And you have permission.
- 1:04:53Speaker 2: You have permission. You have permission. You have permission. You
- 1:05:01Speaker 2: have permission. Have permission. You have permission. And listen, it
- 1:05:10Speaker 2: ain't even supposed to be happening during the day. But
- 1:05:14Speaker 2: God's gonna give it to you out of season, out
- 1:05:17Speaker 2: of sequence, out of order, out of line. Doesn't make sense.
- 1:05:22Speaker 2: No natural order, no sequence to it. It's not supposed
- 1:05:26Speaker 2: to happen during the day. I've been out in the ocean.
- 1:05:35Speaker 2: in the heat of the day. And when it gets
- 1:05:37Speaker 2: real hot, the fish go deep. They get away from
- 1:05:44Speaker 2: the heat. They go down deep where it's cold. This
- 1:05:48Speaker 2: is not supposed to be happening. God is gonna give
- 1:05:51Speaker 2: you something That's not even supposed to be happening. It's
- 1:05:54Speaker 2: not even supposed to be happening. Not at this time
- 1:05:57Speaker 2: in your life. Not at this stage in your life.
- 1:05:59Speaker 2: Not at this point in your career. Not at this
- 1:06:02Speaker 2: point in your ministry. Not at this point in your business.
- 1:06:10Speaker 2: If you would tweak your traditions and get away from
- 1:06:15Speaker 2: your limited belief system, This message is a warning that
- 1:06:25Speaker 2: your limited belief system is gonna make you miss the
- 1:06:29Speaker 2: drought of fish that God has for you. You are
- 1:06:39Speaker 2: called to the deep, not the shallow. You cannot do
- 1:06:53Speaker 2: deep business in shallow water. You have got to have
- 1:07:01Speaker 2: a system to fight a system. You have been groomed
- 1:07:08Speaker 2: to have low expectations. Now he's going to do something
- 1:07:18Speaker 2: abundant in your life. Abundant in your life. Wait, don't
- 1:07:25Speaker 2: clap yet. Because your nets are going to strain to
- 1:07:29Speaker 2: the breaking point. To bring this in, it's going to
- 1:07:34Speaker 2: take everything you got. You cannot be how you are.
- 1:07:39Speaker 2: That's just how I am.
- 1:07:41Speaker 1: No, no.
- 1:07:42Speaker 2: All of that's got to break. Because in order to
- 1:07:46Speaker 2: bring this in... You're going to have to break your
- 1:07:49Speaker 2: limited belief systems and what you've said to yourself. I'm
- 1:07:54Speaker 2: almost where I want to be. Are you with me?
- 1:07:56Speaker 2: Are you with me? I said, are you with me?
- 1:07:59Speaker 2: This is more than about the fish. Yes, they brought
- 1:08:03Speaker 2: in multitudes of fishes. It was amazing. Fishes, King James Version. Fishes,
- 1:08:08Speaker 2: you don't say that's not good English, but it is
- 1:08:10Speaker 2: King James. They brought in multitudes of fish. That is great.
- 1:08:14Speaker 2: That is wonderful. That is commerce. That is economy. That
- 1:08:18Speaker 2: is prosperity. That is equity. That is resources. That is
- 1:08:22Speaker 2: Peter's business exploding beyond human comprehension and fill in his
- 1:08:27Speaker 2: boat and fill in his partner's boat until everything associated
- 1:08:31Speaker 2: with Peter got blessed because Peter had an encounter with Jesus.
- 1:08:36Speaker 2: It is not a result of Peter's righteousness. Because Simon
- 1:08:41Speaker 2: Peter says to Jesus, I am a sinful man. So
- 1:08:47Speaker 2: the fish are not a reward for his righteousness. The
- 1:08:51Speaker 2: fish are a reward for his obedience. Do you hear
- 1:08:55Speaker 2: what I'm saying to you? The fish are a reward
- 1:08:59Speaker 2: for his obedience and let me tell you what Jesus
- 1:09:05Speaker 2: says to him I am going to bless you and
- 1:09:10Speaker 2: your business and I am going to give you more
- 1:09:16Speaker 2: fish than you could ever imagine I am going to
- 1:09:20Speaker 2: unlock your limitations and give you an exceedingly, abundantly, beyond
- 1:09:29Speaker 2: blessing that's going to strain all of your systems to
- 1:09:34Speaker 2: bring in. But let me tell you something, Peter. For me,
- 1:09:42Speaker 2: this is not about your bottom line. I am going
- 1:09:51Speaker 2: to make you fishers.
- 1:09:55Speaker 1: Of men.
- 1:10:05Speaker 2: You care about prophets, P-R-O-F-I-T. I care about prophets, P-R-O-P-H-E-T.
- 1:10:18Speaker 2: And I am going to bless your prophets so that
- 1:10:22Speaker 2: you can discover that you are a prophet. Can I
- 1:10:30Speaker 2: go a little bit deeper? Let me go just a
- 1:10:32Speaker 2: tiny bit deeper. I got so much. Let me just
- 1:10:35Speaker 2: go a little bit deeper. The amazing thing is this
- 1:10:38Speaker 2: conversation happens twice. It starts Peter's ministry. And then at
- 1:10:46Speaker 2: the end of his ministry, when Peter goes a fishing
- 1:10:49Speaker 2: down at the end, because Jesus has been crucified, risen
- 1:10:53Speaker 2: up from the dead and Peter goes a fishing, it
- 1:10:56Speaker 2: happens again. You remember when Jesus was walking on the
- 1:11:02Speaker 2: seashore and this is after the cross and after the
- 1:11:05Speaker 2: resurrection and Jesus hollered at the disciples who were all
- 1:11:09Speaker 2: on the boat with Peter. And it almost reads like
- 1:11:11Speaker 2: the same thing. Children, have you any meat? And they said, no, Lord,
- 1:11:18Speaker 2: we have toiled all night and we have caught nothing.
- 1:11:22Speaker 2: And Jesus says to him, thrust your nets on the
- 1:11:27Speaker 2: other side. And the Bible said, when Jesus said that,
- 1:11:34Speaker 2: Peter jumped off the boat. The fish jumped in the net.
- 1:11:42Speaker 2: Peter jumped off the boat because when he jumped off
- 1:11:46Speaker 2: the boat, it triggered his first encounter with Jesus. And
- 1:11:52Speaker 2: he had come full circle into a deeper understanding of
- 1:11:57Speaker 2: who Jesus was in his life. And understanding who Jesus
- 1:12:01Speaker 2: is in your life will help you to understand who
- 1:12:04Speaker 2: you are in your life Peter says, I'm not going
- 1:12:10Speaker 2: to make the same mistake twice. Yes, he's going to
- 1:12:14Speaker 2: bless me with the fish, but it's not about the fish.
- 1:12:18Speaker 2: It's not about the fish. It's about the master. And
- 1:12:23Speaker 2: Peter jumps off the boat naked and starts swimming to
- 1:12:28Speaker 2: the shore only to find out that when you make
- 1:12:32Speaker 2: Jesus first, the fish you gave up You will have
- 1:12:39Speaker 2: lost nothing because when he gets to land, Jesus is cooking. Wait, wait.
- 1:12:55Speaker 2: You left unscaled fish, but because you left unscaled fish
- 1:13:04Speaker 2: and made me first.
- 1:13:07Speaker 2: I have prepared a table before you in the presence
- 1:13:12Speaker 2: of your enemies, and you're gonna walk into a blessing
- 1:13:16Speaker 2: that is prepared for you, because I always knew that
- 1:13:21Speaker 2: when push came to shove, you would make the right decision,
- 1:13:25Speaker 2: and I always knew, so I didn't wait for you
- 1:13:29Speaker 2: to jump to start cooking. I was cooking all while
- 1:13:36Speaker 2: you was fixing the jump. All while you was swimming,
- 1:13:40Speaker 2: I was preparing a blessing. And whoever I'm preaching to,
- 1:13:44Speaker 2: God is preparing something for you that is going to
- 1:13:48Speaker 2: blow your mind. And if you unlock your limitations, God
- 1:13:53Speaker 2: is able to do exceedingly and abundantly above all you
- 1:13:58Speaker 2: may ask or think. The Bible said that in the
- 1:14:01Speaker 2: last chapter of the gospel of St. John that they
- 1:14:04Speaker 2: had caught, St. Luke, they had caught 157 fishes and
- 1:14:10Speaker 2: they had brought them all into the boat, but Peter
- 1:14:12Speaker 2: didn't care nothing about none of them. He left them
- 1:14:14Speaker 2: all behind and he started swimming for Jesus and he
- 1:14:19Speaker 2: got more than he gave up. Tell your neighbor you're
- 1:14:26Speaker 2: going to get more than you give up. Tell your
- 1:14:31Speaker 2: other neighbor you're going to get more than you give up.
- 1:14:35Speaker 2: These are bookend stories. These are bookend stories. They almost
- 1:14:43Speaker 2: have the exact same words. And we never see Peter
- 1:14:51Speaker 2: on a boat again. Because he has stepped into the
- 1:14:57Speaker 2: higher purpose of which the boat was only a tutor.
- 1:15:05Speaker 2: Now I don't know whether the person I'm after is
- 1:15:09Speaker 2: online or in this room. Or maybe both. But if
- 1:15:15Speaker 2: I'm talking right to you, wave at me, holler at me,
- 1:15:17Speaker 2: make some noise. Don't weep over nothing you lost, nothing
- 1:15:33Speaker 2: you spent, nothing you invested, not the time, the talent.
- 1:15:40Speaker 1: Or the money.
- 1:15:42Speaker 2: What God's got cooking up for you is better than
- 1:15:47Speaker 2: anything you could have done by yourself. I believe the
- 1:16:04Speaker 2: Holy Spirit brought it back to me.
- 1:16:05Speaker 1: It's actually 153 fish.
- 1:16:05Speaker 2: He left all of them alone. It's 153 of them.
- 1:16:12Speaker 2: He left all of them to walk into He walked
- 1:16:25Speaker 2: into a prepared blessing. So prepared that he didn't even
- 1:16:33Speaker 2: have to scale it, wash it, or cook it. God
- 1:16:38Speaker 2: is getting ready to walk you into something that he
- 1:16:41Speaker 2: prepared just for you. And I really do believe, and
- 1:16:47Speaker 2: I'm praying for that brother, but I really do believe
- 1:16:50Speaker 2: that the enemy was so afraid of you getting this
- 1:16:53Speaker 2: word that he sent every distraction possible because he's afraid
- 1:16:59Speaker 2: that God is going to unlock your limitations. And you're
- 1:17:03Speaker 2: going to come into that pressed down, shaken together, running
- 1:17:07Speaker 2: over miracle that the Holy Spirit sent me here to
- 1:17:11Speaker 2: preach to you. And that's why I resisted the temptation
- 1:17:14Speaker 2: to shout and went back to preaching. Because whenever the
- 1:17:17Speaker 2: enemy shows out, It is only a distraction to stop
- 1:17:22Speaker 2: you from doing what you were doing before. Go back
- 1:17:25Speaker 2: to doing what you were doing before and finish your
- 1:17:29Speaker 2: assignment because God is going to honor obedience. Somebody shout obedience.
- 1:17:35Speaker 2: God is going to honor obedience in spite of what happens,
- 1:17:39Speaker 2: in spite of having to pray, in spite of singing
- 1:17:41Speaker 2: the song, my obedience was to complete my assignment. I
- 1:17:47Speaker 2: don't know what your obedience is, but whatever the Holy
- 1:17:50Speaker 2: Spirit is saying for you to do, now is the
- 1:17:53Speaker 2: time to do it. And I believe that God has
- 1:17:57Speaker 2: got something prepared for you that is phenomenal. It is
- 1:18:01Speaker 2: going to challenge your limitations. It's going to challenge the
- 1:18:05Speaker 2: limitations of the infrastructure you have built because you have
- 1:18:09Speaker 2: built an infrastructure expecting little return. your nets will break
- 1:18:18Speaker 2: with the weight of what God is going to release
- 1:18:21Speaker 2: in your life. I walked in the door and I
- 1:18:25Speaker 2: looked at Donna standing there and somebody just sent me
- 1:18:29Speaker 2: a clip with a picture of you and your mother
- 1:18:32Speaker 2: and she's getting ready to debut her chicken and waffles
- 1:18:38Speaker 2: at Al Bernays next Sunday. Next Sunday, next Sunday, at
- 1:18:44Speaker 2: Al Bernays, one of the finest restaurants in the city
- 1:18:48Speaker 2: is going to be offering her and her mother's chicken
- 1:18:53Speaker 2: and waffles on their menu and it debuts next week.
- 1:18:58Speaker 2: When I tell you That God has a prepared blessing
- 1:19:03Speaker 2: for you. You can think it's just a sermon if
- 1:19:07Speaker 2: you want to. But some folks are stepping out on
- 1:19:09Speaker 2: God's word and stepping into what God has for them.
- 1:19:14Speaker 2: Never in the history of Albernaise. has two black women
- 1:19:19Speaker 2: gone in there and changed the menu with a product
- 1:19:23Speaker 2: that they own. But the word is the word. I
- 1:19:27Speaker 2: don't care if you're black, white, brown, female, male, rich, poor, young, old.
- 1:19:34Speaker 2: When God gets ready to move, God's gonna move. How
- 1:19:37Speaker 2: old is your mama? Her mama's 81 years old. Miss Laverne,
- 1:19:46Speaker 2: is going famous at 81. You can be old if
- 1:19:50Speaker 2: you want to. At 81 years old, she is going
- 1:19:55Speaker 2: famous at 81, and this is just the beginning. Eyes
- 1:20:00Speaker 2: have not seen. Ears have not heard, neither have entered
- 1:20:04Speaker 2: into your heart the things that God has in store
- 1:20:07Speaker 2: for them that love Him. You're going to pop up
- 1:20:11Speaker 2: in unlikely places. You're going to pop up in places
- 1:20:15Speaker 2: that they never thought you'd be. I would expect you.
- 1:20:17Speaker 1: To pop up.
- 1:20:18Speaker 2: At some soul food restaurant. I would expect you to
- 1:20:21Speaker 2: pop up at some barbecue joint over in the hood.
- 1:20:25Speaker 2: I would not expect you to pop up at Albernaise
- 1:20:28Speaker 2: downtown where all the rich people go to eat. But
- 1:20:32Speaker 2: God said, I'm getting ready to blow your mind. I'm
- 1:20:36Speaker 2: getting ready to take you into a realm That your
- 1:20:39Speaker 2: eyes have not seen and your ears have not heard.
- 1:20:42Speaker 2: And I'm going to tell you what, we need to
- 1:20:45Speaker 2: go to our Bernays and pack that place out until
- 1:20:48Speaker 2: there's waiting lines and total pandemonium because we need to
- 1:20:53Speaker 2: get behind each other and watch God work supernaturally in
- 1:20:58Speaker 2: our life. We need to jam our Brene's out. If
- 1:21:01Speaker 2: you're watching online, we need to do it until they
- 1:21:05Speaker 2: run out of syrup, they run out of waffles, they
- 1:21:07Speaker 2: run out of chicken. We need to do it and
- 1:21:10Speaker 2: do it and do it. You know why? When one
- 1:21:13Speaker 2: of us breaks through, then everybody can break through. Bit
- 1:21:18Speaker 2: by bit and door by door. God said, I'm going
- 1:21:22Speaker 2: to use your business as a platform. I don't know
- 1:21:27Speaker 2: who's watching online, and I don't know what you believe
- 1:21:30Speaker 2: in God to do, but God is getting ready to
- 1:21:32Speaker 2: open up a door for you. He's getting ready to
- 1:21:34Speaker 2: break a yoke for you. He's getting ready to change
- 1:21:37Speaker 2: a situation for you. He's getting ready to bring you
- 1:21:40Speaker 2: into a place that you never thought you'd be seeing before,
- 1:21:43Speaker 2: and all you have to do is obey his word.
- 1:21:46Speaker 2: Who am I preaching to? Who am I preaching to?
- 1:21:49Speaker 2: Let me see who I'm preaching to. Type on the
- 1:21:51Speaker 2: line if I'm preaching to you. If I'm preaching to you,
- 1:21:54Speaker 2: if I'm preaching to you, if I'm preaching to you,
- 1:21:56Speaker 2: if I'm preaching to you, if I'm preaching to you,
- 1:21:58Speaker 2: I'll talk to you when I get through preaching. But
- 1:22:00Speaker 2: while I'm preaching, both of us can't preach at the
- 1:22:02Speaker 2: same time. You sit down. When I get through, I'll
- 1:22:04Speaker 2: talk to you. I'll talk to you when I finish. Now,
- 1:22:07Speaker 2: clap your hands and give God a praise. Give him
- 1:22:10Speaker 2: a crazy praise. Give him a Holy Ghost praise. Give
- 1:22:13Speaker 2: him a Holy Ghost praise. Give him a Holy Ghost praise.

- 1:22:21Speaker 2: Ghost praise. Give me my Holy Ghost praise. Give me
- 1:22:27Speaker 2: my Holy Ghost praise. Give me my Holy Ghost praise.
- 1:22:32Speaker 2: I pray your systems jam up. I pray that you
- 1:22:36Speaker 2: run out of flour, you run out of chicken, you
- 1:22:39Speaker 2: have to increase your deliveries. I pray to God, blow
- 1:22:43Speaker 2: your mind. And to all of the 70,000 people that
- 1:22:47Speaker 2: are watching me online, get ready, get ready, get ready.
- 1:22:51Speaker 2: The kingdom is going to take over places you have
- 1:22:56Speaker 2: never seen the kingdom of God before. God's children. It's
- 1:23:00Speaker 2: God's children, God's children with little bitty nets, tired, overworked, underpaid, overlooked, ignored,
- 1:23:09Speaker 2: but God is getting ready to make your latter day
- 1:23:12Speaker 2: your greater day, and I dare you to praise Him
- 1:23:16Speaker 2: right on your couch, right in the living room, right
- 1:23:19Speaker 2: at the table. I dare you to praise Him like
- 1:23:22Speaker 2: you lost your mind. I dare you to praise Him
- 1:23:25Speaker 2: in a spirit of expectation. I dare you to praise
- 1:23:28Speaker 2: Him in a spirit of gratitude. I dare you to
- 1:23:31Speaker 2: praise Him like you expect God to do amazing things
- 1:23:35Speaker 2: in your life. The Bible said God would do a
- 1:23:38Speaker 2: thousand times more, a thousand times more in your life.
- 1:23:43Speaker 2: He would bless you and give you a thousand times more.
- 1:23:46Speaker 2: He said it to Isaac in the middle of a famine.
- 1:23:49Speaker 2: He can say it to us in the middle of COVID.
- 1:23:52Speaker 2: If God gets ready to bless, God don't care nothing
- 1:23:54Speaker 2: about no COVID. God don't care nothing about no statistics.
- 1:23:58Speaker 2: God don't care nothing about what people say. The blessing
- 1:24:01Speaker 2: is on you. Launch out into the deep. launch out
- 1:24:05Speaker 2: into the deep launch all the way out into the
- 1:24:07Speaker 2: deep launch out into the deep and watch God bring
- 1:24:10Speaker 2: it to pass in.
- 1:24:11Speaker 1: Your life.
- 1:24:24Speaker 2: I'm going to ask a hundred people I'm going to
- 1:24:26Speaker 2: ask a hundred people that have a dream a vision
- 1:24:30Speaker 2: a business a ministry a hope a calling, a stirring
- 1:24:35Speaker 2: to join us. I wanna write a thousand dollars check.
- 1:24:38Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask a hundred people in this room to
- 1:24:41Speaker 2: give a thousand dollars right now. I'm gonna ask a
- 1:24:43Speaker 2: hundred people online to follow me and give me. I
- 1:24:46Speaker 2: want everybody else to just tithe on it. and give $ 100,
- 1:24:48Speaker 2: but if you're one of those people that this spoke
- 1:24:52Speaker 2: to you in a prophetic way about what you're about
- 1:24:55Speaker 2: to do, about what's about to open up for you,
- 1:24:58Speaker 2: and God has blessed you to join the bishop in
- 1:25:01Speaker 2: giving $ 1, 000, I want you to do it. If you're not,
- 1:25:03Speaker 2: I want you to join on your level, $ 100. I
- 1:25:06Speaker 2: want you to commit it and show it, and I
- 1:25:09Speaker 2: want your obedience to unlock cook fish. Cook fish. Cook fish.
- 1:25:15Speaker 2: We're not looking for raw fish. We're looking for cooked fish.
- 1:25:18Speaker 2: We're looking for a prepared opportunity, a prepared release for
- 1:25:23Speaker 2: the people of God.
- 1:25:23Speaker 1: Are you with me? Are you with me?
- 1:25:25Speaker 2: I would get on this if I had to move
- 1:25:27Speaker 2: money from one account to the other. I would get
- 1:25:29Speaker 2: on this if I had to call somebody and shift
- 1:25:32Speaker 2: something around and do something. I would get in on
- 1:25:34Speaker 2: this because there is an overflow coming. The enemy wouldn't
- 1:25:38Speaker 2: have sent an attack if God wasn't going to do something.
- 1:25:41Speaker 2: God is getting ready to do something amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing.
- 1:25:48Speaker 2: Something your thousand dollars couldn't pay for. It's going to
- 1:25:51Speaker 2: blow your mind. It's going to blow your mind. It's
- 1:25:54Speaker 2: going to blow your mind. It's going to blow your mind.
- 1:25:57Speaker 2: Glory to God. Glory to God. I see Donna writing. So,
- 1:26:00Speaker 2: and God's going to blow your mind. He's going to
- 1:26:03Speaker 2: blow your mind. He's going to blow your mama's mind.
- 1:26:05Speaker 2: He kept her alive to see that her latter day
- 1:26:09Speaker 2: would be greater than her former day. Who would think
- 1:26:12Speaker 2: that at 81 years old, your face would be on
- 1:26:15Speaker 2: boxes and in stores all over the country. What a
- 1:26:18Speaker 2: gift to give your mother. what a gift to give
- 1:26:20Speaker 2: your legacy what a gift to give your life some
- 1:26:23Speaker 2: of you have the heart for it but you haven't
- 1:26:25Speaker 2: had the opportunity for it and God is getting ready
- 1:26:28Speaker 2: to give you an opportunity and this ain't nothing but
- 1:26:31Speaker 2: a sign that the best is yet to come I
- 1:26:34Speaker 2: unlock your limitations right now in the name of Jesus
- 1:26:39Speaker 2: I unlock it right now in the name of Jesus
- 1:26:43Speaker 2: press down shaken together and running over shall men give
- 1:26:47Speaker 2: unto thy bosom you don't have to sow it you
- 1:26:49Speaker 2: can ignore it you don't have to pay attention it's
- 1:26:52Speaker 2: obedience that he wants if he's not speaking to you
- 1:26:55Speaker 2: pay me no mind if he's speaking to you obey
- 1:26:58Speaker 2: him when Peter obeyed God everything changed in his life
- 1:27:12Speaker 2: Help me to identify the places in my life of limitation.
- 1:27:17Speaker 2: Things that I'm doing that's canceling out my own success.
- 1:27:21Speaker 2: Stubbornness and haughtiness and hatefulness that's killing out my dreams.
- 1:27:27Speaker 2: Help me to destroy those belief systems. Bird flying in
- 1:27:32Speaker 2: the house. All that crazy stuff that passes down to us.
- 1:27:37Speaker 2: Some of it not so innocent as that. Some of
- 1:27:40Speaker 2: it diabolical. some of it crippling. The way I handle money,
- 1:27:47Speaker 2: the way I think about myself, the way I think
- 1:27:50Speaker 2: about my life, the way I think about me, even
- 1:27:55Speaker 2: though I think highly of him, if I don't think
- 1:27:58Speaker 2: better about me, Paul said, I can do all things
- 1:28:03Speaker 2: through Christ which strengthens me. I got the through Christ
- 1:28:07Speaker 2: real good. Help me with the I can. Somebody holler,
- 1:28:12Speaker 2: help me with the I can. That's the kind of prayer.
- 1:28:17Speaker 2: We got to pray better. I'm not talking about this.
- 1:28:21Speaker 2: I'm talking about praying specifically. I can do all things
- 1:28:26Speaker 2: through Christ, which strengthens me. Lord, help me with the
- 1:28:29Speaker 2: I can. Lord, I believe.
- 1:28:30Speaker 1: Help my unbelief.
- 1:28:32Speaker 2: Show me the areas in my life that are stopping
- 1:28:35Speaker 2: me from reaching the abundance that you have for me.
- 1:28:38Speaker 2: Fix me, Lord. I came to you. broken I'm a
- 1:28:41Speaker 2: sinful man I came to you shattered I came to
- 1:28:44Speaker 2: you with negative belief systems that were inbred in me
- 1:28:48Speaker 2: I got to shed this I'm running out of time
- 1:28:51Speaker 2: I can't spend the rest of my life fighting my
- 1:28:54Speaker 2: daddy's devils, my mama's devils, my grandmama's devils. I got
- 1:28:59Speaker 2: to have a breakthrough and I need it right now.
- 1:29:03Speaker 2: I want to loan and not borrow. I want to
- 1:29:05Speaker 2: be the head and not the tail. I want to
- 1:29:07Speaker 2: be above and not beneath. Glory to God. Who am
- 1:29:10Speaker 2: I talking to? Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus. Bring
- 1:29:15Speaker 2: that thousand dollar seed and lay it right on the altar.
- 1:29:19Speaker 2: You can't do it, but you can give it online.
- 1:29:21Speaker 2: Give it online right now. Give it online right now.
- 1:29:24Speaker 2: Give it online right now. I'm not going to wait long.
- 1:29:27Speaker 2: I'm not going to beg. I'm not going to go
- 1:29:29Speaker 2: out in a trance because I got some bigger fish
- 1:29:31Speaker 2: to fry than this. I got to make this altar call.
- 1:29:34Speaker 2: But I want those people who heard from God and
- 1:29:37Speaker 2: are making decisions off of this message, I want you
- 1:29:41Speaker 2: to sow into it right now. Texting you, giving over
- 1:29:47Speaker 2: your phone, whatever God says do. But those of you
- 1:29:50Speaker 2: that are obeying the Holy Spirit, I want you to
- 1:29:52Speaker 2: lay it on the altar. It is not the seat
- 1:29:54Speaker 2: that you're laying, it is the obedience. I lay my
- 1:29:59Speaker 2: obedience before God. I lay my obedience before God. I
- 1:30:04Speaker 2: expect God to do some things in my life and
- 1:30:06Speaker 2: I'm willing to go out of my way and I'll
- 1:30:08Speaker 2: walk down these steps and I'll walk past people and
- 1:30:11Speaker 2: I'll step around people to get into the purpose and
- 1:30:14Speaker 2: the destiny that God has for me because I know
- 1:30:16Speaker 2: the voice of God and I know when God is
- 1:30:19Speaker 2: talking to me and I know when God is saying
- 1:30:21Speaker 2: something to me. This lines up too much with what
- 1:30:24Speaker 2: I've been praying about and what I've been thinking about
- 1:30:27Speaker 2: and I want God to unlock my limitations. I want
- 1:30:30Speaker 2: him to take the brakes off. I want him to
- 1:30:32Speaker 2: stir me up. I want him to release me.
- 1:30:35Speaker 1: Glory to God.
- 1:30:36Speaker 2: I'm going to break generational curses off of my family.
- 1:30:40Speaker 2: I'm going to break it so my children can see
- 1:30:43Speaker 2: that you can be more. You understand what I'm saying?
- 1:30:46Speaker 2: So my children can see and my grandchildren can see
- 1:30:50Speaker 2: that nothing is impossible to him that believes.
- 1:30:55Speaker 1: Are you with me? My God. My God.
- 1:31:06Speaker 2: If you are watching this broadcast and I'm not saying
- 1:31:09Speaker 2: it because I'm here, I'm saying it because I know
- 1:31:10Speaker 2: God gave me this word. It is a privilege if
- 1:31:14Speaker 2: you can receive this word. Now, some people heard it,
- 1:31:17Speaker 2: but they can't hear. They saw it, but they can't see.
- 1:31:21Speaker 2: But if you can see and hear this word, It's
- 1:31:25Speaker 2: only because the Spirit has opened your eyes and ears
- 1:31:28Speaker 2: to receive it. And that's a blessing. Act on this
- 1:31:34Speaker 2: word right now. I'm getting ready to pray. And I
- 1:31:41Speaker 2: don't want you getting ready to give. I want you
- 1:31:43Speaker 2: to have given so that when I pray, I can
- 1:31:46Speaker 2: blanket your sacrifice up under the mantle of prayer. For
- 1:31:55Speaker 2: the rest of the New Testament, we never see Peter
- 1:31:59Speaker 2: on a fishing boat again. Because God takes us from
- 1:32:05Speaker 2: faith to faith and from glory to glory and from
- 1:32:09Speaker 2: level to level. And he keeps on doing great things
- 1:32:12Speaker 2: in us, taking us higher and higher for his own
- 1:32:15Speaker 2: divine purpose. Look at your neighbor and say, God is
- 1:32:19Speaker 2: not through with you. Stop washing your nets. Stop washing
- 1:32:25Speaker 2: your nets. Stop washing your nets. Stop giving up on
- 1:32:28Speaker 2: your dream. Jesus is going to sit on your boat
- 1:32:32Speaker 2: and it's going to change the trajectory of the rest
- 1:32:35Speaker 2: of your life. It's going to change everything when Jesus
- 1:32:39Speaker 2: sits down on your boat. Can I pray right quick?
- 1:32:46Speaker 2: If you've given in any form or fashion, hold your
- 1:32:48Speaker 2: hand up. Hold your hand up. Hold your phone up.
- 1:32:53Speaker 2: Whatever you got to hold up, hold it up. Whatever
- 1:32:56Speaker 2: device you gave on, thank you, Jesus. If you got
- 1:33:01Speaker 2: an envelope, run it up here. Thank you, Jesus. Eternal
- 1:33:08Speaker 2: and all wise God, we are just your humble servants.
- 1:33:15Speaker 2: You hold the master plan to what we were born
- 1:33:19Speaker 2: to do. to what we were created to reach and be. Spiritually, naturally, emotionally, personally,
- 1:33:29Speaker 2: every area of my life is in your hands. I
- 1:33:34Speaker 2: can never unlock my limitations without you, because you are
- 1:33:40Speaker 2: the key. I pray that that key would unlock limitations, dysfunctions, disorders, depression, anxiety, uneasiness, unworthiness, incompetence.
- 1:33:58Speaker 2: I pray God that you would stick that key in
- 1:34:01Speaker 2: that lock and unlock us that we could live our
- 1:34:04Speaker 2: lives at our fullest potential no matter what season it
- 1:34:08Speaker 2: is in our lives. whether we're as old as Mother
- 1:34:12Speaker 2: Laverne or whether we're eight years old, I pray that
- 1:34:14Speaker 2: the power of the Holy Spirit would bless us to
- 1:34:18Speaker 2: accomplish our purpose in our lifetime and we would see
- 1:34:23Speaker 2: your glory, not for personal gain, but to let the
- 1:34:27Speaker 2: world know, to let the world know that you are
- 1:34:32Speaker 2: our Father. You are our Father and whatever you give
- 1:34:38Speaker 2: us belongs to you. And whatever we give you belongs
- 1:34:42Speaker 2: still to us, that we are one with you.
- 1:34:45Speaker 1: We are connected. We are united.
- 1:34:49Speaker 2: Now, Lord, somebody needs a financial breakthrough to reach the
- 1:34:54Speaker 2: hope of their calling. Let it happen in Jesus' name.
- 1:34:58Speaker 1: Amen. Give him the best praise you got.
