BREAK FREE From your Past: The God-Aligned Path Forward | Eric Thomas

Paul says I press toward the mark for the prize you can't get your prize as long as you're in your past come on Free Yourself you should not be guilty that that's not scriptural the scripture said how many of y'all believe in a word again I'm sorry I just want to see hands because you're about to walk away free and you're about to be able to do some stuff that you couldn't do before not because you didn't physically couldn't do it immensely emotionally couldn't do it you couldn't do it because of the past how many of you in this room amen you believe in the word come on let me see your hand so then the word says there is no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus it's either there and I praise God Amen instead come on somebody talk back to me she said I'm in the book I'm in the book I'm in the book amen I'm in the book it says there's no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus so if you condemn yourself you're not you're going with the devil you're not going with God her free yourself right now free yourself God has already freed you don't you come up here ask God for forgiveness or something he let go of a long time ago you're the one didn't let it go he didn't let it go I don't care if they keep reminding you they're not they didn't create you they don't decide if you blessed or not huh listen to what I'm trying to tell you please hear what I'm saying before I move forward please hear me you need one person's approval that's God's if you get some other folks you good but you need one you only need one vote God's vote if God loves you and God is for you no human being can stop what God has for you and so number one y'all gonna do me a favor we're gonna We Go most common ways of living backwards is being obsessed with past heirs take a picture of it and then and then erase because this ain't gonna be your reality amen praise God listen to me I mean this with all my heart please hear me I mean this with all my heart when I used to be a person on heirs meaning I pray about it wake up the next day think about it pray about it it's gone for four weeks come back it's going for a year or two then it show itself again while it's beneficial to learn from our mistakes constantly dwelling on them can lead to anxiety depression and Hindu one's ability to move forward let me tell you I'm so dope with it now I'm so dope with it if I mess up on Friday I wake up on Saturday it's over it's done and it's not dumb because I said it was done I'm saying I'm following the scriptures finally that's God's stuff that ain't got to do with me that's God's and then there are those of you in the room I'm telling you you're so tormented because listen can you do me a huge favor you like Eve but what if somebody do something to you listen to me very closely take this forever please take this and run with this if somebody did you dirt somebody harmed you somebody did you some type of way do me a huge favor if it's as deep as you say it is cuddle but whatever you do don't hold on to them and then hold on to the air I'm just being real if it's as deep as you said it is if it's I can't deal with that didn't know I can't I can't take that that's abuse I feel you you are you are you you know what abuse is to you if it's abused then cut it but whatever you do don't forgive somebody don't stay with somebody don't live with somebody and keep putting that dirt in their face every single day don't do it let it go and so there is an energy with air there is an energy that comes with air there's an energy that comes with air and it's negative and if you wake up every single day and you spend 30 minutes on that there's an energy that you're releasing that's not going forward the very energy of focusing on an error today that happened six months ago is moving you backwards I can't believe I did that man I messed up man I can't believe I did that again man God I'm so sorry I wish I could go back in the past and you wonder what's wrong with your life you you going this way for a couple weeks and then you start going backwards because you keep reminding yourself for the stuff to happen why because it causes negative energy I'm so dope with it I tell people who know me do me a huge favor I ain't mad at you if you want to go into the depths of the sea and put on a scuba that's between you and God go do it but I'm not going to look for none of my past I'm all I'm so focused on my future I'm so obsessed with this Nobel Peace Prize I'm so obsessed with this Nobel Peace Prize I'm so obsessed why because it means I'm Gonna Change thousands and thousands of lives I'm so obsessed we're getting up this morning getting here to preach the world I flew in I'm a matter of fact I got a two o'clock to 2 30 flight I flew in I'm flying I'm obsessed why because I got a conference starting on Monday Sunday so I got to get back today so we could start I'm so obsessed with my future I'm so obsessed with Jeremiah 29 11. I can't wait to see the pride I'm waking up every day like God what you got for me every day is Christmas with Christ what's the new blessing what's the new blessing God I don't got time to remember the past I'm not connected to it I'm connected to Christ I'm telling you there's a negative energy with it and every time you remember your heirs from the past there's a negative energy that you're pushing forth let's go to the next one I like this I like this watch this one y'all this one is important resist listen to me resistant change is is natural it's a part of life but some people resist it because they fear the unknown watch this y'all here's my new thing I'm doing so I was talking to one of my staff members right please singular singular singular singular the reason why I'm So Dope right now is because there are few people in my company that I'm going to want to core with let me be honest with y'all I I have I can't tell you the amount of business relationships that I have started and I could count how many of them lasted on one hand why single of part six we weren't singular watch this watch this watch this I was talking to somebody yesterday this is new I've been doing this for about a little under a year now I apologize you know what I'm saying I've affected anybody in the negative I apologize but they made an error right we was on the phone talking about it and they picked me up listen to me very closely when I got in the car y'all I promise you the oet when something bad would happen or something that was disruptive would happen what I would do is I would have it in my spirits even if I ain't say nothing I have it in my spirit and when I see you you feel that energy I mean no harm but I'm learning from the word now like you know I used to just be the Ten Commandments if some Commandments outside the Commandments okay I'm sorry it's some Commandments outside the Commandments that's all they hear that we won't be paying attention to the Bible says forget those things I wasn't forgetting so if you did something wrong I would know it and I would see you I wouldn't say nothing about it because I'm not trying to be on that type it but my energy would tell you like yo I feel some type of way about this we got in the car yesterday I promise you whatever and they started talking I said do me a favor don't talk about that that happened yesterday it was an error we wasn't on the same page as a matter of fact I take the L because I told you to do X Y and Z and instead of me saying that I let you go don't worry about it we're gonna do it this way I was like bad we're gonna do it that way and it still didn't work out but do me a favor squash it we gonna fix it and move forward but what we're not going to do is disrupt the singular oh you missed what I just said I we can't disrupt the singular because the positive power is in the singular once we are divided and we're many now that's a negative energy and as long as there's a negative energy are we going to produce is negative so for the sake of God and the fact that we ain't got a lot of days left we're not going to waste today on the mistake we made yesterday today is a new day we gonna go eat today is a new day we're gonna go to the mall today is a new day we're going to talk about your life today is a new day and though yesterday wasn't the best day yesterday it's gone and they know we could do about it we gonna put all our energy up we miscommunicated it wasn't good but we did it but we gonna better communicate today we gonna fix it today why because as long as we're in an error as long as we're thinking an error as long as we're on that negativity it's going to produce negativity we got to stay in the singular because the powers in the singular let us make man after our there is a blessing in Oneness there is a blessing in single as a blessing when we go in one way you can't go two ways at once it means that if you're having progress you got to interrupt your progress to go backwards I'm telling you there's some of us in the room number two I just won before we get out of here some of us are resistant to change we've been doing something one way and we're gonna keep doing it and God keep talking to you in prayer he keeps showing you stuff he keeps bringing you people and you want to keep doing it the way you want to do it here's what I love about humans we want to keep doing it the way we're doing it and go harder doing it that way I love humans we like God told you stop doing it that way like like no let me just let me not lie the results told you to stop you the results told you you ain't getting what you want the results made you frustrated the results had you tired the results got you feeling some type of way you don't like the results and what we do and we don't like the results instead of changing we do more of what we were doing that wasn't working in the first place and then once God show us how to do it different we resist it because it's not how we want to do it God says I let you do it the way you wanted to do it and look what happened I'm about to go I'm talking to somebody we're resistant to change Paul said it don't get it twisted he said forget those things which be high forget how I used to do it we're going to do it this way God just told me we're not preaching no more God just told me we're not doing tips no more God just told me he could want me to walk into my death oh I'm talking to somebody please hear me today Paul was preaching the gospel Paul was doing tense Paul was traveling the world Paul was bringing people to Christ and God said that's over I want you to die now go read the word for yourself all throughout the world he's preaching all throughout the word he's teaching all throughout the world he's showing false right he said I'm a Pharisee amongst Pharisees he said I'm gonna help every person that don't know God to get to know God I messed up I I persecuted Believers I killed daddies I kill mamas I killed kids it didn't matter I killed them all and now I'm going to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ and then God said you're going to stop preaching I want you to go die thank you Paul said let's get it he was never resistant to change some of you you you you you say you worship God you worship the success that God has given you as soon as God asked for that back he wants you to flip it and do it another way God told me in 2023 you were not going to be on the road speaking no more son I got you going from macro to micro I want you to start helping people who don't have any idea of what they want to do what they like I want you to start working with these individuals I want you to take these individuals to the next level so I don't want you speaking no more I promise y'all I've spoke less than I've ever spoken my life and the people who are responsible for making money off of me when I speak is like E.T what's going on I'm saying I can't tell you all I know is God told me to get off the road I've been on the road that's all I've been doing for the last I don't know 20 30 years this my whole identity huh I just got stable we just had covet I was just chilling by myself with my people then God said church is back church is Back Church didn't come back the way it was supposed to come back then God said we ain't doing Church like that now we about to put you on the road then we get a church I'm there for three weeks now that church ain't available now God said we just want you to travel whatever church will let you use the church I said what where is the stability he said there's no stability this year we're not doing stability this year son we ain't on stability we ain't on what you knew we ain't on stability son we ain't no we ain't know you're gonna have so many gigs you're gonna based up we're not on that this year son we're going micro we're going I listen to him you know me I ain't never on the internet all I put up is my speech I don't ask people for stuff God said we're going to start being on we're going to start being on going live I said I don't go live I don't know I didn't ask you where'd you go I told you what we're going to be doing I'm saying go back for the last whatever I don't go live I don't sell stuff that I said we're not it's not what you do this is what you did because I told you to do this and you didn't have nothing so you did everything I told you to do now you got something you wanted to have a community you want to talk about it no I just want to can you can I be honest before we glow I just want to be honest God says you didn't have nothing and I gave you a full life now you got a full life now we come we didn't we never we never agreed on nothing you didn't have nothing to agree on you just followed me son you did what I told you to do now you got something are we like are we about to have a conversation about it now are you not eating son do you not have a roof over your head son is your wife taking care of is your kids taking care what else son what else do you want do we need to talk you have everything you need son you walking and talk we got to have a conversation just do what I told you to do that's how this thing has always worked that's how it always worked I tell you what to do when you follow oh come on somebody I tell you what to do when you follow singleness of purpose I give the commands you follow the commands I told my son I said I thought you was you said Dad stop ain't working out for me I said what you doing I'm working on this word I said would you work why are you working on that why are you working on that and doing it what you doing I thought you was a Kobe fan he said I am I said okay when Kobe was working did it work no but when he had field did it he did what he was told to do with it worked Jordan he before he had feel did it work no it didn't work when he got filled what'd he do he did what he was told to do and then it worked before field he was running his own show when Kobe didn't have feel he was his own coach how'd that work he begged to get filled back why because Phil gate God says listen to just let me run the play I come up with the play you just run the play huh huh don't worry about the pressures of the world what they think you should be doing don't worry about what this person somebody hit me the other day it's like oh hey bro I got an opportunity for you to be on The Breakfast Club I said what I got opportunity I said The Breakfast Club yeah I want I said bro let me tell you something very closely I don't have no disrespect to no media Outlets that ain't what God told like this ain't what God God don't you telling me I need to get on to do this no now God may tell me to get on but I don't need to get on anything to be able to do what God told me to do I don't need to be on anything I don't need to be on any show to do if God want me somebody said eat you in Atlanta you didn't put on the radio God didn't tell me to put on the radio he told me internet and whoever should come from the internet gonna come don't put it on the radio and have people come in because it's a show I don't I don't need there to be 800 people for I mean if there's two of y'all showed up one of y'all's gonna have to sing one of y'all had to open up with prayer and then I was gonna get up here and do my thing does that make sense look I just want to make sure though don't be resistant to change before we walk out of here God told me to tell y'all he about to tell you what to do and do exactly what he tell you to do and you have a greater chance of getting what you dream of doing what he tell you to do then you keep doing what you've been doing the way you've been doing it now you ain't getting the results you wanted you about to go harder on that dumb stuff you're about to go hard you ain't even got a man the way you've been doing it now you bout to go and do some more external stuff you'd have done some external stuff and it didn't work now you're about to go do some more external stuff and pay for the external stuff to get something you might do more of you the way you've been doing it didn't work somebody saw my wife my wife gave me like yo is that a compliment I was like I don't know what they say she's like I want to be beautiful like you you don't wear nothing my wife was like was that a compliment she's like you just playing my wife was like okay with that I was like yeah it was a compliment yeah it's a compliment yeah the fact that you feel like you can walk out the way you want to walk out that's a compliment huh and it must be a compliment because you attracted somebody with the way you with the way you look that's what I'm trying to say I'm not telling you what to do but I'm telling you if you're doing something external it ain't working don't do more external huh if you try to get a job and you put out 50 resumes don't put out a hundreds the resume ain't working go pray go to church go pay your tithe follow the word go fast I'm just saying if you put out 50 100 ain't gonna do nothing for you you think the god of Heaven didn't see the 50 you put out what you think the 100 about to do [Applause] you're not about to change nothing so ask Daddy what the play is and don't resist it no come on I'm talking to somebody the play ain't the problem it's the resistance that's the problem come on I'm talking let's go to the next one they told me I got five minutes look okay we're gonna come back to this one and when I talk about holding on the grudges I just want y'all to see something real quick and I'm I'm not even talking about what you think you think I'm talking about them but I'm talking about you holding some grudges in yourself so we're not even gonna go with that we can go with them if you want to but here's what I want you to understand I want you to see that anger has a certain frequency resentment has a certain frequency conflict has a certain frequency watch what is heavy ones one's mind preventing them from living in the present and moving toward the future so two things so anger has a certain frequency and a certain direction we're gonna get ready for the appeal I want to make sure I'm clear anger when you angry it has a certain direction and I don't think it's spiritual and it has a certain frequency meaning it attracts a certain group of people angry people attract angry people and anger is not love goes to Corinthians 13 anger ain't nowhere in Corinthians 13. he said it's kind it's patient it keeps no record of wrong it believes all things it hopes all things it Bears all things it's a different frequency than this love is of god anger is of the devil it it produces a different result I'm sorry resentment watch this from the past now you're bringing up all that evil past into your current presence I just want to help somebody I want to move the needle we going forward we can't go forward in Anger we can't go forward in resentment we can't go forward with you upset we can't go forward we can't go forward when you holding on to stuff that's not of God we can't move forward you can pray all you want to you can come to church all you want to but if your frequency says anger resentment if it says low self-esteem if it says envy and jealous it's going to produce something and it ain't gonna be forward it's going to be backwards preventing them from living in the present and moving toward the future amen we're out we out Get Ready Get Ready Get Ready praise God get ready amen praise God hallelujah thank you Jesus so my new thing is we don't know how much time we have left let's forget about what didn't happen right let's talk about what we're going to do next in the future how we gonna fix this how we gonna make it right how we gonna get singular because we're not singular right now and the last time I checked when God created the heavens and the Earth the only way they was doing it because they was all on one Accord last time I checked the Tower of Babel they were able to all they had to bring those people came together and they were singular of language and singular of mine and singular of spirits so much so that as humans that were on one Accord the Bible says that they were building their way up to heaven the Bible says that a group of humans we're on one Accords they were on one mindset they had one Spirit they didn't let anything divide them that didn't let anything separate them or get in their way and they were actually building a building that was taking them to heaven and the Bible says God himself had to stop it I'm I'm leaving I want you to hear what I just said thus saith the Lord that there were humans that were on one Accord that's why companies keep breaking up and people keep breaking up and people getting divorced and business partners splitting up why because the devil knows when you take one or two people and you bring them together what they're able to produce in Christ is dangerous to the kingdom of Satan and so the word says they were on one Accord on some evil stuff and God had to say hold up we got to go down there and give them multiple languages so that they don't understand each other because as long as they understand each other and they're on one Accord they about to come up here and use the power that we gave them to tear this up and then the New Testament said they were all on one Accord and they added to the church daily and no one was without lack if you're ready in the name of Jesus to let your past go and get on one Accord I'm sorry bro I can't see you in the back what's your name yeah roof Rufus yeah as soon as I came in here Rufus she was the first person I saw one Accord that's how Rufus first we was on the same frequency we were saying when you want to see basketball I'm like my man got the shirt on here we just started selling them jokers every Joker came by we didn't put them in the mail until Tuesday hey man she got in the back where she got hurt we put them in the mail on Two And he went around here on Saturday one Accord one Accord I got it I got a plan to catch but I got to be obedient God told me there's a marriage in here ain't nothing wrong with your marriage y'all just hang on one Accord she doing her thing you doing your thing she got her knees you got your knees but y'all ain't coming together as one somebody called me today ain't nothing wrong with your kids y'all just on different Accords ain't nothing wrong with your household it's just divided and it's your responsibility to bring it back together again it's not your responsibility to talk about the past and what they did and what they didn't do you got to stop thinking about the past and what happened to you y'all gotta start over again right now I'm talking to you where are you you raise your hand right now where are you it's your household you need to get your household together let me see your hand come on let me see don't be playing games let me see your hands if I miss my flight it's your fault you can say waste your time raising your hands playing games raise your hand you need to get your household together good you're an individual and you need to let some stuff go because you're not on one Accord with yourself right now you're divided with yourself

saying hey come on bro you didn't win seven days don't forget about us now I need that I'm gonna need that rehab come on back huh where are you ready to get on one Accord with yourself you ready to get on one Accord with the people you love you ready to get on one Accord with God how many you need prayer some of you like I'm good I can do it for my seat me and God can go talk about it we good but how many like I need prayer I can't break this on my own come on I'm the first one up I'm praying with my health I'm the first one up I've been doing it but I've been you know what I'm saying it's
